Treatment for the nheumatism.

Free ventilation should be secured, but
without draughts, and the temperature
kept between G9 and 20 dogs. Fahrenheit.
The patient should be clothed in flannel
and lie between wooden blankets. His
covering should be light. An excess
of bedclotling will add to the pain
in the inflamed joints, and I'M
necessarily increase the sweating. It
should be studied effort TO spare him
any painful movements possible and
every ministration should he gentleness
itself. Milk, with settler water or lime
water, pre-eminently meets the require
ments as the principal article of diet,
during the active period of the disease.
If this proves insufficient, or is not well
borne, then other light and concentrated
food can be administered. Some
authorities insist that animal food and
alcohol are contra indicated during the
height Of the fever. The latter should
certainly be prohibited, as a rule. but the
patients diet need not be so much re-
stricted as in other highly febrile disor-
ders. Those who are habituated to the
use of stimulants should not be entirely
deprived Of them.-Journal Of Health.

Persia Yields to RussIa,s Demand.

FeFStA tletuS TO FSuBSlaB Deman0+ ..
LONDON, Dec. 10.--The report received
from Paris Friday morning, and later con
hrmed by semi official dispatches received
mere, that the Persian government had
yielded to the demand of Russia to grant an
exequatur to the officer delegated to act as
Russian consul at Meshed, creates no sur
prise here, though it docs attract some atten-
ton In official circles as straw showing th 9
direction of the winl on the Russo Persian
/ frontier.
Several months ngn 1t was given out from
Tes@rs. tina. the "KinS ct Eings," Nasar
Ed-Din, shah of Persia, would make tour
OF the European continent, the especial
feature of which would be a visit to Sc.
Petersburg, where he would pay his respects
to the car Of all the Russias At the time
the announcement OF the shah's proposed
"trip was made it was supposed, and indeed
nobody doubted, that England was endeav-
oring TO secure from Persia a concess ion
permitting the passage of Troops across Per.
sion territory--a privilege which Russia
never thought of asking for but availed her,
self Of whenever she found it necessary to
exercise
1t was presumed that the shah was going
to st. Petersburg to make terms with the
czar on the basis OF admitting or excluding
the transit of English soldiers, assuming that
Russia could and would offer more than En-.
Agland for the right to invade or the choice of
rendering neutral the Persian territory
coveted for the purpose of making advant.
ageous military movements.
Suddenly it was discovered that England
saw no necessity for the presumed advant-
age OF transporting troops through the Per-
asa l.. 1t, IA
vealed to the Russian autocrat that his dread
of Nihilism, dlrks, bombs, revolvers, etc,
would not be in any degree allayed by the
presence in Russia OF the shah. The feelings
of the czar in this matter were broken
gently to the shah with that refinement of
Russian delicacy which is something akin to
striking man on the head with an ak, and
forthwith the liking OF kings" was persuaded
that he would better remain at home.
Having resolved to continue business at
the old stand Nassr- Ed Din, with true orien
tai regard for the amenities Of royalty, pro
'ceeded to notify the czar of his intention by
refusing to grant an exequatur to the Rus-
Xsian consul at Meshed. This act of resent
Jment on the part of the shah toward
brother monarch, who, profting by the ex.
perience of others of his ilk, had declined to
have his carpets, bedding, etc, soiled by
pagan brute was promptly taken cognizsnce
OF by the czar's government with the intima
tion that though the shah might not visit his
Russian brother the latter would by proxy
in a neverto beforgotten manner IL the
consul was not Immediately recognized and
otherwise made perfectly at home. The sig
niicance of all this is that when next Persian

A Hopeless Case.

Yesterday afternoon District Attorney
Dupuy addressed Judge Gardiner upon
the case Of G.. A. Whittier, twice con-
fessed felon, now in the County Jail. At
torney Dnpuy handed Judge Gardiner a
letter from Judge Cheney which advised
that Whittier should be sent to San
Quentin. In speaking of the matter
Judge Dupuy said that Whittier had
twice confessed felony, and in both cases
judgment had been suspended; the Sec
ond time he escaped from custody while
en- route to the House of Correction in
San Francisco, and returned to this city
where he was captured and incarcerated
in the County Jail, where he now is. The
boy was used in the trial of Mrs. @. Mel
son and told of his depravity upon the
witness stand. Judge Dupuy said he had
talked with him and was thoroughly
convinced that he is incorigible,
and that the only hope of reforming him
will be to send him to San Quentin long
enough for him to learn trade. Whit
tier claimed while on the witness stand
to be only fifteen years OF age, but in the
preliminary examination he had stated
he was sixteen years. Judge Dupuy
thought he was fully seventeen years
old. Judge Gardiner reserved his deci-
sion, sasnr.

Its physical geography climate, resources,

and j. P. Widney, A. M NJ. D. With
maps and numerous illustrations. New

viii-377.
"To him or her whose lot untoward fate
has cast anil the vlcissitudes of unmis-
taxable winter and alleged spring on our
northern Atlantic coast, bitter sense of
envious disappointment must be reused
by reading of a climate mildly equable,
where poor humanity's thermogenic ap-
paratus is spared the struggle between
freezing and broiling environments, and
where life seems to be an enjoyable
continuity instead of guerrilla contest
for existence. But with the reading
comes after while a delusive OBJ
livion of present discomfort and i'm
aginative transfer to the pictured Utopia,
as the whipped schoolboy's smartings
are appeased by poring over Perrault's
or D'Aulnoy's fairy tales. And, for win
ter reading, of all works based on sober
fact and substantiated by meteorological
records, we know of none that come SO
near to tempting fiction as the book now
before us and Mr. Ernest Hart's letters
from Orotava. The authors have con-
fined their observations and descriptions
to the five southermost counties of Cali
fornia, which differ from the upper por-
ton Of that exceedingly elongated State
as much, almost, as Florida differs
from Maine, and they have judiciously
tempered the records of scientific data
with interesting pen-pictures of the
scenery of the Pacific elysium, and an
account of its agricultural and CONNER
cial resources. Whether for the physi-
clan who wishes intelligently to direct
the exile OF invalid patients, for the
emigrant who contemplates making a
new home on the south western shore Of
the continent, or for the pleasure tourist
planning holiday ramble in one OF the
most charming parts of the world, this
guide book will be found to fulfill the
pro mise of its title" The above is one
of many favorable notices this work has
received IN Eastern journals. This book
has had an unusually large sale in the
United States and England. Over eight
hundred copies have been sold by Los
Angeles booksellers alone.

The Pcsthouse Location.
EDIToRs HERALD: The proposition to
locate the Pesthouse in our best CITY
park Is evidence sufficient to show that
what said in a former article to your
paper is SO Objectionable that an average
City Council will jump at the conclusion
and pass ordinances with as little judg-
ment or forethought as child would
grab at candle, pretty snake, or any
thing else that comes before its vision.
The Council or Board of Health has no
more right to place the Pesthouse in the
city park than it has TO build it on my
land or yours. Such an act is violation
Of the State law and lays the perpe-
traitors liable to prosecution, and they
will be prosecuted to the full extent Of
the law if they attempt it. | learn that
few months since the Mayor and
Health Officer of San Francisco were
arrested for erecting tent in city park
for smallpox patients. The City Council
of Los Angeles has already been guilty
of numbers of illegal acts. | could
name scores of them but the most ridic-
ulous proposition ever made by City
Council is that one now on foot to change
the original boundary OF the City Park
30 as to leave out seventeen acres for a
pesthouse. What pennywise and
pound-foolish thing this would be, even
if it could be done legally, to ruin 40O
acres Of beautiful park lands for the sake
Of saving seventeen acres for PEST
house. Sush acts as these furnish some
of the reasons why object to delegating
so much power to the Council and Board
of Health as were given to them in our
lamented dead charter. Why don't the
Council buy forty acres away from the
settlements, build a pesthouse in the
centre OF it and fence it in. and sell the
two or three acres where the pesthouse is
now located, which would bring enough
money TO pay for the forty acres?
