phs, Tennessee, in 1873; | made a
memorandum of it for the benefit OF the

he believed the woman who had gone
back to England was dead; he said that
he had heard from her since she went to
England.
Redirect to prosecution: (Referring

was married to Rebecca Whitlock in
Cleveland, Ohio, in 1862, and that she
died in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1873.

DUSTING.

How much of our housework requires
thought
How few of the things we daily must do
ASK only our hands, and allow our minds
TO travel beyond our view!
But take your nice clean dust-cloth in hand,
And your mind from that it will deity
toucho
And go on journey to Faryland
Have you wondered very much.
How this beautiful place is always fair,
And cool and sweet, yet never was seen
"A fairy who did any harder work
Than dancing upon the green!
Come back just moment from Fairyland,
To dust the back OF that rocking chair
"A place that is sure to be left untouched
Without special thought and care
A beautiful arbor!-yes; you may go
with cool, shady vines and rustic seat.
"A book that you've wanted to read SO long,
And Il hassock for your feet;
And tine-oh,, hours and hours of i'll
To do just the things you want TO do
MOI one of them dtty!-yes, yes know
That this lawIess creature is you.
And. lest your mind should get quite I'M
done,
Just bring it back to this baiustrade
And keep it all there, until, rung by rung,
Its dusty length you've made.
Since on drew breath so full and free:
Run along the sand and stretch wide your
arms,
And laugh out your laugh OF glee,
And let the cool. salt, rushing breeze
Blow all the tired" away from your brain,
AL the fret and worry from out your heart,
And mako you child again.

To help your hands dust one thing more

DISEASE GERMS.

Word About Disinfectants and Simple
Antiseptic Substances.
The committee on disinfectants of
the American Public Health Associa-
ton calls attention in its report to a
distinction which is not always accu-
rately enough observed between disin-
fectants Substances which destroy
germs:-and simple antiseptics, which
prevent their development. Many of
the preparations put on the market as
disinfectants are in reality only anti
septics. While practically the words
disinfectant, IN the strict sense, and
germicide are considered. to mean the
same thing, so long as it is not proved
thai all the infections are developed
from germs, We must regard ''disin-
fectant" as word of more general sig
nificance than germicide. But, as q
matter of fact, those agents which by
laboratory experiments have been
proved to be the most potent germi-
cides have also been shown to be the
most reliable disinfectants. While
antiseptic agents may fail to fulfill the
stronger purpose of disinfectants, they
are known to exercise a restraining in
t1uence on the development of disease
germs, and their use during epidemicS
is recommended, when masses of or
ganic material in the vicinity of human
habitations can not be completely de-
stroyed or removed or disinfectcd. A
substance of this kind is sulphate of
iron, or copperas, which, while it does
not destroy the vitality of disease germs
or the injecting power of material con-
tanning them, is a very valuable anti
septic, the low price of which makes it
one of the most available agents for the
arrest OF putrefactive decomposition.
While an Antiseptic agent is not neces-
sarily disinfectant, all disinfectants
are antiseptics; for putrefactive decoms
position is due to the development of
germs of ehe same class as thaa to
which disease germs belong, and the
agents which destroy the latter also
destroy the bacteria of putrefaction
when brought in contact with them in
sufficient quantity, On restrain their de-
velopment when present in smaller
amounts. Antiseptics are q poor SUBJ
stitutc for cleanliness.

Intubation of the Laryn:..

The operation of tracheotomy, by
which an opening is made with the
knife into the windpipe for the relic
of membranous Group and diphtheria,
seems likely to be superseded by the
intubation of the larynx. In this new
operation a small tube is inserted
through the mouth into the windpipe,
and all necessity for a cutting opera
ton is thus avoided. 1t is claimed by
the advocates of this method of treat
ment that it is far easier TO introduce
this tube than to perform tracheotomy,
and that more lives are saved than by
the old operation. The statistics which
are given in the medical journals go
far to confirm their opinions. and as
the process is being generally intro
duced. but little lime will be necessary
to substantiate the claims made for It.

POVERTY IN aoNDoa.
The Hope1essness Whic4 is the Curse of
Improv. dence and Want.

Is
Improv dence and Want.
Poverty in London is increasing,
both relatively and actually. Relative
poverty may be lightly considered, but
it breeds trouble as rapidly as actual
poverty. The family which has an in
come sufficient to support life on oat-
meal will not grow in good will when
they know that daily meat and holt
days aae spoken'of as "necessaries" for
other workers and children. Educa-
ton and the spread of literature has
raised the standard of living. and they
who can not provide boots for their
children, nor sufficient fresh air, nor
clean clothes, nor means of pleasure
feel themselves to be poor, and have
the hopelessness which is the curse OF
poverty, as selfshness is the curse of
wealth.
Poverty, however, in London, is in
creasing actually. 1t is increased CD
by the number of incapable-"b broken
men, who, by misfortunes or their
vices have fallen out of regular work, "
and who are drawn to London because
chance work is more plentiful, COM
pany" more possible and life more'en-
livened by excitement. (2) BY the de-
terioration of the physique of those
born in close rooms, brought. up
in the narrow streets, and early
made familiar with vice. 1t was noticed
that among the crowds who applied
for relief there were few who seemed
healthy or were strongly grown. In
Whitechapcl, the foreman of those en-
pioyed in the streets reported that ..the
majority had not the srsmina to make
even a good scavenger." (3). By the
disrepute into which saving is fallen.
Partly because happiness Gas the ma
beyond their reach, partly because the
do is enjoy yourselves" and partly
because "the saving mao" seems bad
company, unsocial and selfsh;'' the
fact remains that few take the trouble
to save-only units out of the Thousands
of applicants had shown any signs Of
thrift. (4) BY the growing luminosity
of the poor against tile rich. Good
will among men is a source of pros
perity as well as of peace. Those
bound together consider the good of
the "whole" before the good of class.
Among large classes of the poor ami
mostly is slowly taking the place of
goodwill, the rich are held TO be of
another nation, the theft of lady's
diamonds is not always condemned as
the theft of . poor mans money, and
the gift os 47O,0G0 is looked on az
ransom. and perhaps an inadequate
ransom. The bitter remarks sometimes
heard by the almonerS are signs of dis
union, which will decrease the re-
sources of all classes. The fault did
not begin with the poor; the rich sin.
but the poor, made poorer and more

MALARIAL POISON.

Existence Described as Long A go as the
Decline OF the Roman Republic.
When we talk of the Roman climate
we can not dissociate the theme from
its distinctive characteristic-the ma
larial poison. What is this poison?
Iill the researches of Tommasi-Crudeli
and .krebs, published in 1879. the most
plausible answer was that of DR.. Leon
Colin. who defined it rs an ''intoxica-
ton tellurique," an earth-poison gem
Grated by the surplus vegetative ener-
CIV of an abnormally fertile soil. whose
fecundity was very partially absorbed
by the scanty sprinkling of herbage
that overspread its surface Cultivate
this soil, render Q to- this vegetative
energy its appropriate pabulum, and
you provide the antidote 10 malaria.
Such, stated with extreme brevitv, was
the theory of Leon Colin. embodied in
a work of great ability, which, appear
ing as 1T did, at the outbreak of the
tranco-German war, encountered 4
public too preOccupied to give it the
study it deserved. Tommasi-Crudeli
combats this theory. He denies that
the Roman Campagna. possesses any
thing like the exuberant fecundity
with which it has been. credited. Its
really fertile tracts are few and far
between, rarely compromising the
agriculturist for his labor-as, indeed.

soil is greatest; but on the contrary,
the localities in which malaria is most
pronounced reach their maximum of
danger in the morning and evening
those periods of the day. when the diff
ference of temperature between earth
and atmosphere renders the ascending
aerial currents most powerful and most
apt to transport the material of the
poison. That material. according to
Tommasi-Curdeli, is a living ferment,
encountered equally on the mountain
and plain, in dry soils and in humid.
Its existence was suspected and unset
entifically described as long ago as the
decline of the Roman republic by the
agriculturist Varro, and its nature and
form are defined by Tommasi-Crudeli
sas a ''Schizometes bacillaris. For its
development it requires a temperature
not lower than twenty degrees G. "a
moderate degree of humidity and the
immediate contact of the atmosphere
with the soil it infects. AS the absence
of single one of these conditions pre-
vents the development of the malaria,
so certain localities exhibit at times a
natural suspension of the poison. In
winter, for example, the fall OF the
temperature below the required twenty
a.
the loss of the necessary humidity un-
der prolonged drought causes IL hy-
daulic suspension; and the Interposi-
ton of sheets of water or of a thick
mating of turf ON the laying down of
pavement, by preventing the imme-
date contact. of the atmosphere with
the infected soil, produces an atmos-
pheric suspension of the malaria.-
