plphtheria and lts cauaas.

Probably no disease is more justly
dreaded than diphtheria, and un
hesitatinsly declate that many deaths
might have been avoided if the ma
ture OF the apparently mild sore
throat, which perhaps recovered un
der the use OF domestic remedies, had
been understood. Every case OF sore
throat should be an object of suspi
cion as a possible source OF diphther
itic infection. DIR. Jacob, OF New
York, very high authority, says
there is as much diptheria out OF bed
as in bed, nearly as much out OF doors
as indoors, and cities several in
stances in which fatal diphtheria was
traced to walking cases OF the disease.

Old Age.

A medical man compares an old
man to an old wagon; with light loading
and careful usage it will last for years,
but one heavy load or 81 strain
will break it and ruin it forever. MANY
people reach the age OF fifty or sixty or
seventy, measurably free from most
of the pains and intirmitles of aye.
CHEEKY in heart and sound in health.

sympathies mellowed by age, and
with reasonable prospects and oppor.
tunities for continued usefulness in

Let such persons be thankful, but let
them also be careful An old consti.
tuition is like an old bone, broken with
ease, mended with difficulty. A young
tree bends to the gale, an old one
snaps and falls before the blast. A
single hard lift, an hour OF heating
work, IN evening OF exposure to rain
or damp, u severe chill, an excess of
food. the unusual indulgence of an an.

OF these may cut off II valuable life in

In one of his articles on "Aristocra.

thus OF the footmen employed by En-.

however. They lose all their elegance

be vnlgarer or ruder. They seem to
revenge themselves for the restraints
they submit to all the rest of their
lives. Here the aristocrats are at
their mercy. They must have their
carriages and they can't get them
themselves; and the lackeys delight
in annoying and disappointing and
delaying them, with only half the show
OF serving. One can fancy what the
class might be capable OF in revolu.

A charming old acquaintance OF
mine, near whose sanctilied abode
made several studies and took refuge
when 1t rained, seemed to have an en-
practice in writing these charms
OH eggs, perhaps three times q week
at one sou each.
These charms are more frequently
written on paper to be folded and en-
closed in amulets, which are generally
square or triangular in shape, and
made of silk, leather, and tin. AS they
believe in the efficacy OF these scraps
of paper, so are they supcrstitious
about paper generally; they object, for
instance, to going before French
authorities to settle their uriev-
anccs against each other. prsferrinc

son. sometimes above the elbow, and
in their garments; horses have them
attached to the band passing across
their chest to protect them from the
evil eye. Those worn by the women
OF the higher and wealthy classes are
inclosed in richly engraved cases OF
gold and silver and suspended to chains
slung over the shoulder and passing
around the waist; they add greatly to
| the richness OF their costume and form
