Prof Max SCHUYLER of Berlin, is con-
WINGED (DeutSche Med WochenSch, No.
pa of the superiority of massage over
other measures employed in the treat
ment of sciatica, and relates his ex-
perience of fifteen cases-all in males,
and except in one or two instances
(Which were traumatic) due to exposure
to cold. Most of the eases were dealt
with from the first by massage; but in
few instances electricity, vapor baths,
ETC.. had been fruitlessly employed prior
to coming under his care. The modus
operandi is as follows: The patient lies
on the unaffected side with knees and
hips slightly iexed The course of the
sciatic nerve is rubbed from below up
wards, partly with both thumbs, partly
with the ball of the little finger or
thumb; sometimes struck with the
closed fist, sometimes the muscular mass
over the nerve pressed and kneaded
with both hands. The pain evoked by
these manipulations soon passes away,
and after short time becomes less and
less at each sitting. The neuralgia
pains very soon abate diminishing after
a severe and painful massage then re-
curing with less severity, and grad
ually disappearing entirely. The power
of walking improves after each sitting.
On an average the treatment lasts about
two weeks and a half, but in one case
nine days and in several from ten to
fourteen days sufliced. One patient
abandoned the treatment after five
days, owing to the pain caused by it,
and tried without relief fortnight's
course of electricity and vapor baths;
he then returned to the massage treat
ment, and was cured in two weeks and
a half -LnNcek

A Possibility and a Fact.

Why is not the Queen Anne cottage,
asks writer, which in its best state at
home has charmed the eye of many an
American and thoroughly fulfilled his
conception of what a country home
should be; why is it not able, if trans
planted to our own soil, to meet at least
certain class of needs? Try to live in
one and you will see In the winter
season you will have snow where the
Englishman has rain, and will find his
picturesquely complex roof snow-trap,
not a snow-shed. You will have far
greater cold than he, and will need q
plan that does not put too many diff
culties in the way of warming from
common center. Winter and summer
you will have sunshine of strength he
knows only in his dreams, and his
house will very likely give you more
windows than you want; and in sum-
mer you will have heat of potency he
would hate to know even in his dreams,
and his house will most certainly not
give you the thing you want most of all.
piazza. And, again, you will very
often wish to make much more extern
sive use of wood than he ever makes in
these modern days. OF course you may
use your wood in place of his brick; you
may modify his roofs, change his plan.
alter his openings, and add your own
piazza. If, however, you do this with
the intent to copy the effect of his house
as nearly as you can, you will utterly
spoil his creation and produce q bastard
thing which will neither satisfy your
eye nor wholly meet your needs. And
this is just what has been done in very
great many cases. If, on the other
hand, you make the necessary changes
with intelligent thought and artistic
feeling as your helpers, instead of with
initiative effort as your fetter, the result
will not be the Englishman's house at
all, but something essentially different,
essentially your own. And this, too,
let us rejoice to note, is done more often
and more successfully year by year.

affects only the physical. Whatever the
man is in life, he is in death. He makes
and fits himself in life for his future by
his daily and hourly conduct. Honest
in life he is so in death. Faithful in
life, faithful in death. His affections.
kindnesses, charities and noble deeds
are not buried with him, but with the
immortal life go out into the great be-
yond, under the All-Seeing Eye.
Upon the widow of the deceased this
sad bereavement falls with full force, for
she shared in all his joys and sorrows.
One source of consolation to her will be
that the many acts of kindness and
sympathy manifested by the deceased
to the people of this vicinity, and by
them to him throughout life will make
his grave ever green and realize the
idea that it is only noble to be good.
