A Washington correspondence asserts
that the several republican incumbents
of Dakota land Offices will soon be
routed out of their warm nests to give
place TO democrats who have been

alleges that the Mitchell register and
receiver are likely to go by the board at
an early day if rumored disagreements
between them do not cease. Eyeritt,

relates, has embarked aboard the Sparks

4 New Formula for Consumption.

We are In receipt OF q number or com.
munications On q topic which just now
seems 70 be resolving the attention OF a
great many persons II is the question Of
the treatment Of consumption. and all
kindred or diseases, without drugs. Many
years ago, in France twas decided by tha
leading physicians that nothing was equal
to beef as an article OF diet in consumption
and a.. Rllmen1s which tend toits develop
ment. This Is now a general y-admitted
fact Much dEHcnlty. however, has been

efficacy depends on the presence OF spirits
free from adultsrations and fnsel oil. In
the past such anarticie has heen tliiiicnIt to

ed, and the communications we have
referred TO are from parties who arc using
formula OF thlA kind received from the
Duffy Malt Whiskcy Co, Of Baltimore.
Md. The formula, which was prepared
specially for them by an eminent German
scientist, consists principally of raw beef
steak and ingredients, which any house
keeper can get and mix, combined with
theirpur malt whiskey which will, ifreg-
gulaRly used, add on an average from 6 10 8
pounds in q month to the weight On the
receipt OF n twoeent stamp, the formula

whiskey, under the seal of the company.
From the abundance of testimony
there can be no question as to It's
value. This method OF treatment is in
accordance with the views of the two
recognized leading medical authorities of
this country, Professor Austin Flint and
Professor H. G. Mood The company has
received 80 many inquiries concerning this
formula, that they have found IL necea-
sary to add medical department to their

Dr. Carpenter,s social QuaIitles.

Arduously as DIR. Carpenter was en-
gagged in scientific research, he found
time to make himself useful and appre-
ciated in public and social life. He
took pleasure in making science intclli-
gible to the public. and forthis purpose'ac-
cepted part in the management of the
Gilchrist trust for popular lectures, and
delivered lectures in the Gilchrist and
SWiney courses. His articles on the
zoetrope and other similar toys, in the
s'Intellectual Observer are commended
for their clearness, and the same quality
of style contributed very largely TO make
his physiological treatiscs popular. He
took the highest interest i'm social uues-
tionss and was always glad to throw the
light of scientific knowledge upon them.
He was quick to perceive the evils of in
dulgence in intoxicating liquors, became
an advocate of total abstinence. and
lectured on temperance, while he after
ward concluded that ts.are was a legiti-
mate use for wine. Upon DIR. Ray Lam
kester. who knew him from his own
boyhood, ''he always produced the most
vivid impression of man of indomit-
able energy. who had accepted as the
highest duty and keenest duty of his life
the promotion, whether by advocacy or
by research, Of true knowledge = NO
man of science" DR.. Lancaster saws in
another notice of him, "could witness
without respect and sympathy the ardent
devotion OF the veteran naturalist to the
cause Of scientific progress, and the
earnest simplicity Of his character. -
Whatever he said when his researches
were the subject of conversation s.was
admirable, and his willingness to meet
fairly an antagonist was no less indicate

A Peculiar Case Of Eczema.

An Elmira, N. ~, correspondent
writes: A very peculiar case came to the
notice Of the people Of Penn Van some
time ago. and its progress has been
watched by the medical profession with
the greasest interest. Perry Danes. n
respected citizen of the village, sudden
II became afflicted with singular dir
case. The first symptom was peculiar
Itching Of the skin over the entire body.
This continued for several months, and
the torture he endured was indescrib-
able. During this time the skin was
gradually thickened. The color was a
lurid red and burning sensation per-
vaded the entire body. Many physi-
clans were consulted, none of whom
were able TO diagnose tho disease or af-
ford any relief to the sufferer After a
time the skin became thick and leath-
cry, perfectly dry, aud covered with
scales. Whenever the body was brush
eel white scales would fall in showers.
After the skin had thiekened and be-
come perfectly parched and dry 1t began
to form in folds. Every part of the sur
face of the body was thus affected. The
face presented a terrible appearance.
The eyes We're nearly closed from the
excessive thickness OF the eyelids, which
lay in thick folds. The skin over the
entire surface of the body seemed to be
growing thicker and harsher during this
time. Mr.. Danes suffered untold agon-
les, and was told that his case was hope
less, and his time to live was short.
he had lost all faith in medicines, and
was anxious TO have death relieve him
Of his suffering. AT the meeting of the
State Homeopathic society at Grove
Spring last fall he was examined by the
leading physicians of the state, aud so
rare is the disease that few of them ever
witnessed or heard of a similar case.
Two of them pronounced it well-de-
fined case of universal eczema, and Mr..
Danes at once placed himself under
their treatment. For q long time no.
change was apparent. The scales that
fell from his body increased, and hum
drcds Of people who had heard of the
strange case came to see him. His skin
presented very much the appearance of
an elephants hide. His nights were
spent in bathing and rubbing his body,
and he had become nearly insane from
long suffering and want Of sleep. About
six months ago he began to imprOve
slowly. The shower of scales lessened.
the thickening of the skin was arrested,
and the deep and painful folds began
to disappear. Although not yet well he
is comparatively comfortable, and is
thought to be in fair way to recovery.
