journals) drink far more tea per head

The Australians come first. with 7.66

the people of Great Britain, though ap-

only 4. 50 pounds each. Newfoundland

NERVE STRETCHING.
A Comparatively New Treatment for Dis
eases of the Nerves.

A Comparatively New Treatment for Dis
eases of the Nerves.
Many people think of the nerves as
something intangible, somewhat as
they think of nervous diseases, as
mainly imaginary, and have little SYM
Fpathy with the sufferer. But the latter
are terribly real, and the former are
quite as substantial rs the blood-ves-
sells, and. like them, the larger ones are
surrounded by tough elastic walls.
Their Office is twofold: to communicate
sensation from the circumference to
the center, and force from the center
to the circumference. No part of the
system is SO frequently and variOusly
diseased, but the disease may be of
such character as not to show at all
to the eye; or the acutest pain may
mean only that the nerve is pressed on
nd irritated by some hidden cause,
rs when the bony canal through
which nerve issues, is undply narrow
ID by age, or as when rheumatism en-
larges the bony matter of joint. In
such cases, rs the cause is permanent,
40 medicine can effect q cure.
Years ago, the plan was adopted of
severing the painful nerve, but as the
nerve soon grows together again, the
relief is temporary. Then the plan
was improved upon by cutting out
considerable portion of the nerve. A
more durable relief was obtained. but
we have the impression that it tended
to the disintegration Of the nerve. FL
nally, it was found that the nerve could
be rendered insensible by forcible
stretching.
The sciatic nerve is the largest in the
body. 1t issues from the network Of
nerves near the end Of the spinal cord,
and is distributed to the muscles Of the
thigh. The following case illustrates
relief BY stretching.
The patients pain was 80 severe and
constant that he was confined to the

An Indiana aerOnaut says that a

proposes to construct cylinder-shaped
balloon one hundred and fifty or two
hundred feet long, with which to make
captive and free ascents. He is a be-
lever in the theory that the north pole
may be reached by balloon, and in
no other way. His plan for this pro-
ject would be to employ a screw,
operated by an engine to be carried in
the car. BY means of this screw the
balloons course could be controlled,
as already demonstrated by French ex-
periments.

CHOLERA PREVENTION.


Inafaiity 81 Cosrcivs guarantees and tie
Advantages Of Sanitation.
At lecture in Exeter Hall, London,
Sir Joseph Fayrer, the distinguished
Indian physician. said that though the
real cause of cholera was still un-
known, yet the laws which affected its
production. development and diffusion
had been SO far ascertained by observa-
ton that. happily, the measures by
which its progress might be stayed and
its fatality mitigated were now suf-
ficiently well known as to come well
within the scope of sanitary work.
Hence all were agreed as to the pre-
ventive effect of measures of sanitation.
Sir Joseph Fayrer rejected the theory
of contagion by personal intercourse,
and therefore condemned in strong
terms the inutility of all coercive meas
ures of guarantees and cord0ns. The
British and Indian Governments, who
based their action in the matter on we'll
ascertained facts, had wisely discon-
tinued all quarantine measures on both
sea and land, and relied solely upon
sanitary laws. And here, remarked
the lecturer. he came to the lesson
which he wished to impress earnestly
on every one of them, and which was q
main object of his lectures-what it
behooves each individual of the COM
munity to do, whether as regarded
himself or the town in which he lived.
when cholera manifested itself in the
country. As he believed that in per-
feet sanitation lay the sole means of
preventing the disease, SO if it ap-
peared among them every person.
should be scrupulously careful in his
living and clothing as means of pro-
lection. Let them be moderate and
careful in diet, avoid all depressing in
f1uences, over-fatigue, chills, violent
Alterations of temperature, impure
water, unripe fruit, the use Of aperient
medicines, unless professionally or
dered, especially all those medicines of
saline nature. Good ventilation, per-
feet drainage, prevention of over
crowding those things should be
secured in every town and village in
the country.-N. =. Observer.

can refuse to confirm, and put him to the
trouble of writing out another slip at the
end of the session, reappointing his man,
and that is all. This talk about contro-
versy and deadlock is all the veriest rot"

The growth of Presbyterianism in Can

the general progress of that country, as is
shown by recently published comparison
between the church as it was in 1877 and
as it is to-day. In that period of time
the Presbyterians have increased six-fold,
and in New Brunswick the increase has
been seven-fold.

CuKE FOE PILES.

Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing the
ratient to suppose he has scme affection
of the kidneys or neighboring organs.
At times SYMPTOMS of indigestion are pre-
sent, fatulency, uneasiness of the stomach,
etc. A moisture like perspiration, pro-
ducing very disagreeable itching after
getting warm is common attendant.
Blind, bleeding and itching piles yield at
once to the application of DR.. Bosanko's
Pile Remedy, which acts directly on the
parts affected, absorbing the tumors'
allaying intense itching, and effecting a
permanent cure. Price 30 cents. Address,
