A chronic sufferer during ten years
from cracked hands, who like the woman
of old vainly tried many doctors and
much medicine, finally adopted the fol-
lowing simple treatment, communicated
through The New York Witness;
"Some one told me to try honey, and |
found great relief from a few applica-
tons, and then / got honey and kept a
dish of it beside my wash basin, and
every time after washing my hands,
while they were yet wet, dipped my
fingers in the honey and rubbed it al
over my hands. It's. only a moment o.
work. Rub your hands quickly. as il
washing them; then wipe on the towel

Hot Weather.

The past few days have been quite
trying on those who have to be ex-
posed to the hot sun. Yesterday the
Thermometers stood well up in the nine
ties, and to-day has been equally hot.
Notwithstanding the heat, however,
many of our citizens, took advantage
of the special excursions to Bay Ridge
yesterday and to-day, some going by
way of the water and many by vehi-
cles. To-day large number of our
citizens left for Fair Haven on the
Wesley Chapel Sabbath School ex-
cursfon, and many also went to Bay
Ridge to take in the famous Mexican
Band Concerts. Those who stayed
at home remained in the shade and
enjoyed the cool breezes from the
Bay.

-:o:-
The Responsibility of a County for
Damages.


For the security against the loss o.
life aud property, a county is requir,
ed to keep in safe condition its pub.
lie roads, bridges, &c If any person
receives injury to himself or beast
from the effects of defective bridge
or road, through the negligence Of
the county to keep in repair the same,
damages can be recovered for such
injury. Hence, it is very important
that our authorities should keep in
repair its public roadways, &C., in
the county. We have frequently call
ed the attention of our authorities to
this matter. Our bridges are allowed
to remain for months in an unsafe
condition, notwithstanding our coun-
ty authorities are cognizant of the
fact. The bridges on both side of
the Ferry wharf, we are told, have
been in a dilapidated and unsafe con-
dition for some time, and the atten-
tion of the County Commissioners
have been called to the fact. What
is the result? A valuable horse be-
longing to one of our citizens goes
through defective plank, falls and
breaks his spine. A damage case has
just been decided before Justice of
the Peace of st. Mary's County,
which is so similar to the one in ques-
tion that we give it in full from the st.
Mary's Beacon, for the benefit ofthose
concerned:
1.-THE case of A. f. Fenwick, ST., against
the County Commissioners for damages
for the loss of an OK, caused by bad con-
dition of the public road, was tried be-
fore Justice j. f. Morgan on Tuesday of
last week. After hearing witnesses and
arguments of counsel, the Justice gave
judgment for plaintiff for $40 and costs
the whole amount claimed. The fol-
lowing is brief synopsis of the grounds
for the decision: 1t is the duty of the
County Commissioners to keep the pub
lie roads in a condition to be travelled
with safety, and if any one using ordi-
nary care and caution receives aniniury,
the county is responsible. 1t is no de-
fence to an action against the county for
damages, to say that the accident might
and could have been avoided by going
out of the public road and passing over
the land of private person, for, as be-
fore stated, it is the duty of the County
Commissioners to keep the roads in
good condition

Take Your Home Paper.

Do other city papers give you news
of interest to your own county? Moth.
Ing. Do they discuss home affairs,
contain the details of your meetings,
churches, improvements and hun
dreds of other local matters of inter-
est which you home paper publishes
without pay? Not an item. Do
they say word calculated to draw
attention to your county, and aid in
its progress and enterprise /? Not a
line. Yet there are men who take
such contracted views of this matter
that unless they are getting as many
square inches of reading in their own
as they do in city paper, think they
are not getting the worth of their
money. It reminds US of the man
who took the largest pair of boots in
the box because the price was the
same as the pair, much smaller, that
fitted him.
