rreatment Of whooplng.CougI..


Medical and Surgical Reporter,
During the last six years or more quiz
nine has been recommended over and
over again as the best remedy against
whoopingCOugh, Several authors insist
that the remedy should be given in pow.
der form, or, II In solution, that 1t should
be kept as long as possible near the phar.
YAK, Nobody has yet given the reasons
Tor this procedure, but reliable authorities
unite In saying that most success Ia OBJ
tanned where the remedy is kept the long
eat in contact with the pharynx,
Dr., Kohlonetz conceived, recently, the
idea Of injecting the remedy in solution
with considerable force far back into the
mouth against the walls OF the pharynx
Deulsch, Aed, Zsit., II, 1856, In this
manner hs believes that some OF 1t gets
into the lsrynx and the larger quantity OF
it comes into intimate contact with the
epiglottis, a fact he considers OF the utmost
Importance, He employs the following
formula;
R, Qulnlp sui phatls"".",""",gr lxiy,
ACID, Sulphurn,., ,.,.,,r,",," IN xGXll,
8. AZ. deSIllaL, ad"."""""""L VI, N.
During the first three days he injeCts
common glass syrlngeful Of this solution
every two hours into the open mouth, the
tongue being depressed by the mother
with the aid Of a spoon. The next four
days these Injections are made every three
hours, and after that ad libitum. This
dose is used In children from 3 to 1 years,
In younger children the method and its
execution are the same, the only differ
enCe being that the syringe Is not filed
quite SO full,
The result has been remarkably good.
As q rule, the whoop greatly diminished
by the third day, and in almost oil cases
ceased totally by the end Of the first week,
Whenever the result was not SO satisiac-
tory, the Doctor convinced himself that
the treatment had not been carried out
strictly according to directions, and he re-
quests physicians TO give the method a
fair trial. AS 1t eau easily be executed,
we advise our readers to do the same.
Some children suffer so intensely from
this disease that anything promising re.
lief may well be worth trial.

Diseases Due to Occupatlon.

Among the finest specimens of our
race in form, proportion, agility, keen
ness of sight and hearing, vigor and
health, are the tent dwellers of Arabia.
Civilization, with the aid of science, may
gain great triumphs over diseases, but
large number of diseases are its own pro-
duct. We call attention to few.
One of the needs of civilization is luci.
fer matches. The old sulpher match is
now a relic of the past But the manu-
facture of the former makes large de-
mands on the health OF the employees.
The phosphorus tends to cause in many
cases decay of the bones OF the jaw.
A physician in London, whose practice
in the neighborhood OF three match
factories, had three cases of the kind
within six months. One young woman
who had been employed simply in put
ting matches in the boxes, said that five Of
her mates were similarly affected. If it
is true, as generally thought, that the
poison reaches the jaw through decayed
tooth, stringent legislation should en-
force frequent medical examination of
the teeth of the operatives. Give us
good matches, but don't let US feel every
time we scratch one that our convenience
costs the health of girls in their teens.
We need white lead to protect and
beautify our dwellings. But to say
nothing of painters collie, the manufac-
ture of the pigment ruins the health OF
the workmen, as a rule, in about six
years. Lead is cumulative poison; i. e., e,
being with difficulty eliminated, its eff
fects steadily accumulate in the system,
and occasion most painful and intricate
ailments. A fresh set successfully passes
through the same process of physical
ruin. Since facts seem to show that a
milk diet renders the business safe, leg.
islation should provide that the employees
have the benefit of this knowledge.
In mills for the manufacture of wooden
and cotton goods, and for the grinding
of bark for tanning, aud of tobacco for
snuff, and in establishments for filing
copper and iron floating particles enter
and irritate the bronchial tubes and the
lungs, causing grave pulmonary diseases.
the employees should be taught to
breathe only through the nose, and to
wear over the latter an efficient air
strainer.
All sedentary employments tend to
cause constipation, headaches, dyspepsia,
internal congestions and to lower the
health generally. The most should be
made of opportunities for exercise in
leisure hours, holidays, and vacations in
such a way as 10 purify the blood and
invigorate the system. YOUTHS COM

A Marvellous Escape.

A curious adventure, as well as a mar
velous escape, was that of Mr.. Gerald
Mccarthy, of this city, who was recently
carried to the bottom of the Atlantic in
the hold of a capsized vessel. Mr.. Nc
Carthy, who is a member of the senior
class at the Deaf Mute College at Ken
dali Green, and who has already attained
a considerable reputation and standing
as botanist, has been collecting plants
on the pine barrens and banks of North
Carolina. Wishing to visit Roanoke
Island in order to carry on his work
there, he recently took passage in a
schooner thither bound.
The schooner, a small vessel in the SER
vice of picnic party from Roanoke, was
to have sailed homeward at o'clock in
the evening, but it was II before the
crew came on board, when they appeared
to be highly intoxicated. They set sail
in the teeth of a Ilatteras storm, and
when well out from land they began to
quarrel over the contents of a Jug they
had brought with them. Meanwhile the
vessel was struck by gust from the
cape, and, from want of proper manage
ment, capsized completely, and sank to
the bottom when about two miles off
the coast. Ir was about midnight, and
the cabin having been given up to the
gay party, Mr.. Mccarthy had gone down
into the hold for shelter. He was doz-
ing there on box, and, being deaf, was
not aware of any disaster until he sud-
denly found himself pitched headlong to
the opposite side of the hold. Instantly
compromising the situation, he jumped
for the hatchway and succeeded in grasp
ing the casing, but was torn away by the
inrushing torrent and carried to the
depth of the hold. where he was banged
against the side of the vessel with such
force as to nearly dislocate his shoulder.
Thanks to his familiarity with water,
being man of tenn lerVnce principles and
an. expert swimmer he realized the fu-
tility Of attempting to escape before the
stoppage of the current, and so remain
ing quiet where he had been dashed he
caIcfully husbanded the little air in his
lungs until he Judged the inrush of water
had ceased By this time he was nearly
strangled, but with no little presence o.
mind he groped his way to the hatch
way, and, diving through, rose to tn,
surface none too soon to catch the air
Many Of the party were drowned. Aftc
swimming about and clinging to tn,
wreckage for half an hour, he was picked
up ia small boat and taken to Roarok
Island, where he was Hospitality enter

Among English sovereigns the title

The Medical School Of Japan, whicl
last year had 972 students, is lie,

Criminals were sometimes placed un-
der a hurdle in Rome, and crushed by
the weight Of stones thrown upon it.
The ancient Romans spent enormous
sums in bringing pure water to their
towns and making delightful baths
They were also great travellers, and
made some Of the finest roads the world
has ever seen.
The crater was a capacious bowl or
vessel, containing wine and wa er mixed
together out of which the drinking COB
lets were filled and handed round to each
individual at n Roman table, for the
ancients very seldom drank their wine
with meat.

In olden times bells were supposed to
have certain supernatural powers. They
were used to disarm Satan when he Wis
tied pious communities on earth. On
their holy sounds the souls of the dead
were waited to heaven. When the French
took Zweibrucken in 1877, we read that
they tried to melt one of the local church
bells, when it sweat drops of blood, which
one of the officers wiped off with hand
kerchief so that he could show the stains
to King Louis in proof of his assertions.
In the reign of Edward ~, of Eng

common laborers and servants and their
wives are never to wear clothes costing
more than two shillings yard; nor were
they to wear girdles of silver. Another
law was passed forbidding wives TO get
| their wells and handerchiefs too fine.

The Scalp of a Finger.

A surgeon of Tours, DR.. Thomas, has
recently communicated very interesting
fact concerning the surgery OF the fingers.
A man, while passing overa gate, lost the
whole skin of one of his fingers, ring
around one Of them having got caugh'
between the gate and an iron bar, an,
the weight of the man while jumping
having forcibly dragged the finger
through the ring. The ring and the lin.
ger remained an entire hour on the gate.
DIR. Thomas secured both, and intro.
duced the scalped finger into its normal
envelope. Although the whole skin did
lot adhere good part of it was restored
to life; and it is possible that, if the op
Grafton could have been performed car
lier, the result might have been quite
satisfactory.

Recipes and Hints.

A piece of zinc put on the live Goals in
the stove will clean out the stove pipe.
If roses are wilted before they can be
placed in water, immerse the ends of the
stalks in very hot water for minute or
two and they will regain their pristine
freshness.
The best way to brighten a carpet is
to put a half tumbler of spirits of turpen-
the in a basin of water and dip your
broom in it and sweep over the carpet
once or twice.
Pretty lamp shades are made of lace,
wide enough to cover the globe. Draw
the lace at the top around wire ring of
the proper size and line it with colored
silk of thin quality.
When your red tablecloth is too much
worn in spots to use any longer on the
table cut the good parts in the shape of
napkins; fringe them out for about an
inch; if inclined to ravel easily, overcast
them, and it will be many a long day be-
fore any member of your family will dis
cover that they are not regular
"Doughten" fruit napkins.
Mrs. NJ. E. T. gives the following
lCGIBO AOI Ohlh SUI 4hhhS ehO olONh
for the soup from a shin of beef the day
before it is to be used. While boiling
put in an onion, half green pepper and
small piece of boiled ham. Strain the
soup and set it in a cool place. The
next day set the stock on the fire and
add thirty-siX okra pods cut in thin slices
and six tomatoes Let all simmer for
three hours and serve.
A delicious omelette may be made by
this recipe: Into a quarter of IA pound of
dry sifted flour mix one tablespoonful of
herbs so finely minced as to be almost
powder, little salt, cayenne pepper and
a saltspoonful of powdered sugar. Beat
three eggs very light, and add TO them
one tablespoonful of mushroom catsrp,
the juice of two large tomatoes and a
cup of warm milk; stir in the flour by
degrees and fry delicate brown. This
amount will make two omelettes.
To clean windows, wash with luke
warm water, rub with any clean, dry
cloth to take off the first dampness then
finish with piece of chamois. A large
one can be purchased for fifty cents, and
it will last lifetime and save so much
hard work. When soiled wash in soap
suds, rinse well and dry, then rub it in
the hands to make it soft. Tor silver it
is unequaled. Also wiring it in tepid
water, and use it to rub off the finger
marks on the piano, then rub with dry
! one.
Mrs. T. gives this recipe for pigs feet,
which has been in use in her family for
years; Put four feet in saucepan with
cold water, pepper corns, whole cloves
and allspice, adding salt, and boil thcrl
until the bones are loose. Remove al
the bones and put the meat in stone
jar. Strain one quart of the water in
which the feet were boiled, add one pint
of vinegar and boil for five minutes Al
the end of this time turn the vinegar and
water over the meat from the pigs feet
completely covering it, and keep in g
cool place. The mass will be like Jelly
and is cut as needed. If desired, it may
be put in bowls and turned out on the
dish before serving.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
Re-Warmed Dlshes.

Cold meats and fish, in the opinion o.
many people, may be made more accept
able on their second appearance upon tn,
table than when first served, but the cost
of properly preparing palatable dishes
from such material is a great one, and
constitutes one of the chief exccllences
of French cooking. The cook should
know that dark meats and game should
always be warmed with brown gravy,
and that fish, poultry and white meats
require white sauces. All warmed over
dishes should be quickly cooked and
promptly served. Meats are best re-
warmed as croquettes, patties, salmis,
curries, hash, scolops and fricasses.
Game and poultry can be re-warmed in
any of the above ways, and are especially
acceptable highly seasoned and broiled
Vegetables may also be made n second
time by re-warming in gravy, frying in
butter or minced with meat. Cold pud-
ding NAV be sliced, dipped in beaten
egg, fried and sprinkled with sugar.
Cold rice, oatmeal or hominy may be re-
dressed in many ways, as can many other
articles for family dessert

We have so often seen fatal results follow
thedeclaration that 1t can be cured, that we
have unconsciously settled down in the belief
that this disease must necessarily prove fatal
Itis true that occasionally community has
witnessed an isolated case of what may ap-
propriately be termed spontaneous recovery,
but to what combination Of favorable circum-
stances this result was due none have hitherto
been found able TO determine.
We have now the gratifying fact to announce
that the process by which nature affects this
wonderful change is no longer a mystery TO
the medical profession, and that the changes
brought about in the system under favorable
circumstances by intrinsic causes may be
made as certainly and more expeditiously by
the use of the proper remedy. In other words,
nature is initiated and assisted.
Tuberculous matter is nothing more or less
than nourishment imperfectly organized
Now, If we can procure the organization of
this food material so that through the process
of elective affinity it may take its place in the
system, we can cure the disease. This is just
what Piso's Cure for Consumption does 1t ar
rests at once the progress Of the disease by
preventing the further supply of tuberculous
matter, for while the system Is under It's infiu-
ence all nourishmenti is organized and assimi-
lated. 1t thus controls cough, eXpectoration,
night-sweats, hectic fever, and oil other char
acteristic symptoms of Consumption.
Many physicians are now using this medi-
cine, and all write that it comes fully up TO its
recommendations and makes Consumption one
of the diseases they can readily cure.
The forming stage of a disease is always the
most auspicious for treatment This fact
should induce persons to resort to the use of
Piso's Cure when the cough is first noticed,
whether it has q consumptive diathess for its
cause or not, for this remedy cures all kinds of
coughs with unequaled facility and prompt-
ness. In coughs from simple cold, two or

sufficient to remove the trouble. So in all dis
eases of the throat and lungs, with symptoms
Stimulating those of Consumption, Piso's Cure
is the only infallible remedy.
The following letter recommending Piso's
Cure for Consumption, is a fair sample of the
certificates received daily by the proprietor of
this medicine.
