anything brighter or more charming than
the spectacle that presented itself. There
was profusion of all the sweet flowers
that smile their tenderest in the lazy mid
summer, and the air was drowsy and frag-
rant with their breath. But infinitely more
attractive, it struck me, was the bouquet Of
lovely girls, whose active hands were
shaping the blossoms to bring out their
charms to best advantage. 1t seems TO ME
that American girls ought to make great al

ty and grace that moved me to soto pOce
admiration. the wilderness of bloom was
transformed into dozens of bouquets,
each of which Ruskin would probably
call floral sonnet" There was be-
witching vision of white hands, taper Eng
ers and dimpled arms, incidental to the
WORK, that for the moment of contrast
rather oVtshone the flowers. And above
each pair of nimble hands there laughed a
radiant young face and chartered and active

Ii is pleasant to reflect on the material
part of this charming branch of charity

coNsuMpTIoN DURABLE ArxvrRY STAGE

In review OF the English translation of
work by the justly celebrated Professor
Of Medical Pathology to the Faculty Of
Paris, M. Jaccoud, entitled Durability Of
Consumption" etc., it is announced that
the durability of pulmonary consumption
at every stage IL now q well-established
fact" The authors conclusions are cited
as follows:
10 sum up what has been stated. pull
monary consumption is durable in all its
stages. This IL the prolific notion that
presides over the whole history of the dis
ease, and which should increasingly in.
spire and direct all medical action. The
incurability proclaimed by Laennec and
his immediate successors liz disproved by
pathological anatomy and clinical observa-
ton. None should, therefore, allow them
selves TO be influenced by such q con.
domination, which is but historical
souvenir. When the existence Of tuber.
cles in the lungs is recognized, 1t should
not be inferred from that NONE mt that he
who has them is doomed to death In con-
sequence OF their presence. Should it be
found that The tubercles soften and q
cavern forms, it should not be believed,
on this account, that all is lost. 1t has
been shown that this Is not the case, and
the natural tendency which tubercle has
TO hbrous MISUNDERSTANDING is, to re.
covery-should not be forgotten. Before

search and examine necessarily whether
the patient is in the requisite conditions
Tor such favorable evolution to occur. If
all hope of absolute recovery must be-
abandoned, a relative cure should be
wrought, and every exertion be made TO
place the patient in such conditions that
ne can live, notwithstant ing the LESSONS
which are now irreparable; in word, the
plan adopted should be to strive aud
strive always, with the mistaken conf
dence which may be dawn from 1.-The
notion that recovery is possible. The
enemy can be conquered. This is the
idea that should engender and sustain
every effort. 1t Is certain that this con-
viction is the first condition of success,
since IL Is absence of faith in the possibil-
ity of a cure which prevents the adoption
of all therapeutic treatment.
Among the latest additions to the list of
remedial agents that of Professor Dujar-
din takes the lead for the cure of pulmon-
airy consumption. And this end is
attained, not by medicines which aim by
themselves to cure, but by so invigoraling
and strengthening the 81 stem as to enable
nature to effect this hbrsus transforma-
ton from which alone can a cure be ex-
pected. 1t acts by enabling nature to
replace the unhealthy by healthy tissues,
and by supplying the elements of nerve

be found in better health. lille the

one who Is well can give all his

LOCOMOTIVE HEADLIGHTS

Why They Could Be Removed without
Detriment to Anybody.
There are twenty-five thousand To-
comotives in the United States" said a
railway official, "and every one of
them is furnished with headlight. A
locomotive without headlight would
look like a dog without a nose, and
most people would say that it is next
to impossible to run locomotive with
out big lamp in front. Yet am Of
the opinion that these lamps are almost
useless, and that they could be taken
OIL OF most locomotives without detri-
ment to anybody. Headlights are not
in use . England, and we have used
them in america simply because some
body used them before US. We have
become so accustomed to them that
most people think that a locomotive
without lamp could not be run with
safety, but am convinced that there is
more danger in their use than in their
absence. speak, of course of road
engines, and not of those used in wards.
On a road engine the headlight is of no
earthly use to the engineer; it obstructs
his vision so that he can not see his
switch-lights, and l think that every
thinking engineer will come to the
conclusion that he would rather run in
the night without lamp than with it,
as he can see better in the dark. Red
can not be seen distinctly under such a
powerful light when the engine is run
ming rapidly. A green light under the
brilliant illumination of a headlight
appears yellow, and blue light APP
pears pale. know of accidents which
have occurred from this cause, and the
sye-sight of every engineer having a
night run Is put under terrible strain
BY continually gazing ahead into such
q light surrounded by such dense dark
ness. If there is any good argument
In favor of the retention of headlights
on road locomotives it is that travellers
by public highways who have to cross
railroads at grade can see the train
eoning at greater distance by means
Of the headlights. But it would be
cheaper for the roads to rig up auto
matte warning bells at every grade
crossing than to continue the use of SO
many unneeded lamps The new cleo

years ago was q success as o light
