that tuberculosis is caused by a specific
germ, and that conse quently it does not
originate spontaneously, AMI also that

person to another by c0ntagion, 1T seem
very probable that the disease Is largely
kept up by affected animals and of all
animal food the most dangerous is the

HOUSEHOLD.

CAREFUL NURsISG.-When a sick
person is obliged to lie constantly in
one position, Is lie the case with a brok-
en- leg, bed sores must be guarded
against. Tue lower part Of the back is
most frequently attacked, says Good
Housekeeping and the nurse should pass
her hand under 1t at least twice a day
to see that the draw sheet Is free from
wrinkles and creases. Morning and
night she must battle it with a mail
sponge dipped in alcohol or a solution
Of tannlc acid. and when it is dry rub
it with corn starch or buckwheat flour.
1t may seem impossible to her to get
her hand underneath, but most beds
will yield a little to pressure, and by
working in a roll Of old linen under the
back above the place to be bathed, she
Will obtain a little space to work In.
If in spite Of precautions the back be-
comes sore, an air cushion with a hole
in the middle nust be used TO prevent
the sore from coming in contact with
any surface, or II cannot heal.

who has succeeded in preparing the
long-s0ught hydride OF nitrogen ami
dogen, diamide or hydrazine, as it is
variouslv called. This remarkable
body, which has hitherto baffled all
attempts at isolation, is now shown to
be a gas, perfectly stable up to a very
high temperature, Of a peculiar odor
differing from that Of ammonia, ex-
ceedingly soluble in water, and Of
basic properties, In composition 1t is
nearly identical with ammonia, both
being compounds Of nitrogen and hyd-

"a dentist wishes to know the FORM
ula for the white cement used for 6ll-
ing decayed teeth, which contains
neither mercury nor silver in Its COM
position. There are several white fill
ings in 5 by dental surgeons which
contain neither mercury nor silver.
They are made by mixing oxide Of zinc
with impalpable glass powder in small
proportion, and Just before using, when
the cavity OF the tooth Is prepared, a
small quantity of dellquesced chloride
of zinc Is placed on a glass slab, and
enough powder added to make thick
paste, mixed rapidly. 1t sets very
quickly, and forms a good temporary
stopping. 1t is slightly irritating to
the nerve of a tooth, and should not
be inserted directly In a cavity In which
carries has far advanced without placing
a little solution or g~utta-percha In

But a less irritating filling, according
to the London Lancet, Is made by mix
ing the same powder or oxide Of zinc
with pyrophosphoric acid; this Is a more
