SWEATING FOR HYDRoPHoBIA.
An Attack on Medicine Men. and Especial
Pasttur treatment
n NInrIr Gu,

An Attack on Medicine Men. and Especially
Pasttur 5 treatment
NV York Sun.
A great many have died of hvdropho-
bia during the past few years. Oar .med-
icine men" have been unable to do any
thing for them. They we're dosed with
nor phine and chloral and such other
things for the our pose of lessening their
sufferiggs, but as the medicine men very
wisely admitted, these remedies were only
palliative, not curative, as the results
proved. Years ago | made up my mind
that if l ever came In contact with a case
of genuine hydrOphobia, / would have re-
course to a remedy Gan old one, but not
the worse for that which would accomp
lish the cure without any possibility Of its
recurrence. Two years ago [ had a
chance to ride my hydrophobia hobby,
and l did 1t successfully. One OF the
boys of the institution of which 1 have
charge was bitten by a rabbid dog, and
on the twenty first day after the bite he
had commissions, with every evidence that
they were hydrOphobic. The doctors
said SO, and [ was convin "ed that such
vas the case from the beginnisg, and
consequently l used my own judy ment in
dealing with it. The treatment was
this:
l put him into a vapOr bath of very
nigh tenn perature until ne was com pleteiy
sweated out The sweating cured him,
and he has ever since been III perfect
health.
Why can not our physicians, once in
while, descend TO what they call an I'M
professional practice to save life? Do
they think it is better for society that a
hundred men should go into the grave
professionally than that one should be
saved by other N ms? 1t would seem SO
There have Ell any lives saved by the
simple me Itch | adopted in the
above case. Lnese means have again and
again been made public, but the medicine
men viii not even stop to examine them.
Unprofessional, you know. One of the
best physicians in the state of New Jer-
sey said to me some time ago: aft had
a hydrophObic patient L would not ALLOW
anybody to put him in a vapor bath"
So say they all, especially those who try
TO bolster up Pasteur and his theory. He
has accom- plished nothing. The statistics
show that the rate of deaths from hydro
phobia has not diminished, even in France
since the introduction of his system of
incubation, but that, on the contrary,
new disease has been introduced pas
teurism), which is as deadly in its effects
as the real article. 4
Nature has remedy for all the ills that
human flesh is heir to. Why not use them
when we know them?

Few men of secretion, observes the
Husbaudman, fail to appreciate the ad-
vantage of regular rest day, one In
seven. The farmer values it for himself
and for his work animals. The reasons
for If, aside from religious considera-
tions, are many and weighty. This res
pite for one day in seven gives an elasti-
city and yigor that produces better re-
suits in work, than comes from the
slavish drag and drudgery of the life
that is borne down by a constant, unin-
terrupted burden.

ALMOND CAKE.

One cup of butter. one cup and half
of sugar, three eggs, half cup of milk,
three teas poonfuls OF baking powder,
about two cupfuls of flour; blanch one
pound of almonds, lay aside enough to
cover the top OF the cake when they are
cut in halves, chop the rest and put them
into the cake. After the cake is in the
tin lay the split ones over the top of the
cake. They will rise and brown as the
cake bakes. This is delicious. lust try
it the next time, you want anything es-
pecially good in the cake line.

is discernible in the oven, the heat is too
intense and should be lessened. Unless
the heat in the oven is too great, the
drippjngs in the pan will not burn and
smoke, and when the meat is cooked there
will be thin coating OF brown Jelly In
the pan where the meat rested, which by
the addition of stock or water will make
a delicious gravy.
roast of beef should never be washed,
and if it has accidentally been wet or
moistened, it should be carefully wiped
dry before it is scared or put to cook.
Soaring almost instantly coats the cut
side of piece of meat and prevents the
escape of juices in the after process of
roasting, while firm, steady heat gently
but thoroughly cooks it, and thus both
juices and flavor are preserved. Bastirg
is a troublesome as well as damaging
process. And as salt and water have a
tendency to tougher and extract the
juices of meat, they should not be used on
it while roasting, if it is desired TO have
the meat sweet, juicy and tender.

THE whole truth about early peach
es and the early market is pithily EN-
bodied by the Delawayean in the fol-
lowing words:
Some of our exchanges are publishing re-
turns of sale of peaches in the markets that
show that the shipper is not getting fair
price for fruit We think that the publica-
tion Of such returns of sales will do grear
harm to the growers, and may cause them
to dispose of their fruit at a sacrifice. 1t is
well-known that there is now in the orch-
ards Of this peninsula a large yield of peach
es, and consequently the growers do not and
ought not to expect to receive the price per
basket for their fruit that they brought last
year or the year before. They, however,
ought to realize good paying prices for good
fruit. The peaches that have been shipped
this year have been of inferior quality, and
no reasonable person ought to have expected
big price for it. The fact is they ought not
to have shipped large portion of it to any
market because of its condition. The peo-
pie of this peninsula do not use to any ex-
tent such fruit and they ought to know that
the people of other sections of the country
do not want it, When we ship good fruit
We may expect good prices for it, provided
that the market is not glutted with poor,
half-rotten stuff. Therefore, it is to the in-
terest Of every grower and shipper to ship
no peaches that are not of good quality, and
well culled and properly assorted. This
done, good fair prices will be realized for
peaches.
For this latter end the Fruit Ex-
change has been Iaboring for four
years; but facts show that fruit grow
ers are their own foe, by not applying
the common maxims of business.
on this subject has been freely
given fer a score of years, but with a
few exceptions they are no nearer the
true line of protection to their own in
terests than when it first began.

anything to me in relation to the deal" I
told him then and there that we did not
converse about the deal" as such, and that
have no recollection of using the word
IDEAL" to him prior to the election in 1886.
l told him further that had never written a
line to the Record about him aud advised
him to drop the whole matter, as did not
wish to get into any newspaper controversy
with him, and said enough, thought, to put
. prudent man on his guard, and especially
as he was aware Of what had taken place
between us. The next day or day after about
ten O'Clock in the morning he saw me again
in the Prothonotary's office and he had then
read the alleged colloquy, and asked me to
state whether he had had any conversation
with me prior to the election in 1886. told
him to take a seat and I would tell him. and
repeated to him in the presence of Mr.. Bur
ehenal what had told him in his Office the
day or so before which he had then and
there admitted was true. then explained
what had previously said to Mr.. Burchenal
about him, and which have explained al
ready in answer to Mr. Burchenal's letter.
During the explanation we became very an
cry and used some pretty rough language to
each other. When the quarrel was con-
cluded he came back again and took Mr.
Burchenal by the hand and said he wanted
to make a public apology to me for his con-
duct. Now do not know what he had to
apologize to me for, unless he knew he had
lost his head and discovered suddenly the
weakness Of his cause, because I should Of
fer no apology TO a man who had in anywise
misrep presented me as he claimed had done
If had been in the wrong / should haye
done just as Mr. Day did Every insinua-
tion, assertion or declaration by Mr.. Day to
the contrary that he did not fully and plain
ly understand the nature and character of
the bargain as above referred to, serves the
more completely to stultify himself and
adds to his own condemnation. Mr.. Day
and myself have not only been exceedingly
friendly, but very warm personal friends
In order to shield aud protect himself from
the charge Of disloyalty to his party which I
had made to Mr. Burchenal, although did
newspaper. he presumed too much upon my
intimate friendly relations with him, and
thought he would deny the deal" and treat
it as a myth-as a mere fancy; but he will
find, like Banquo's ghost, it will not down.
The truth with me- when called upon to
speak, outweighs all personal considerations
have no desire to compromise personally
any democrat who was in the IDEAL" direct
ly or indirectly, and shall not do so unless
an open attack under his own name is made
upon me. Nj. Day has been caught in his
own trap and he has nobody to blame for it
but himself. It is very sad spectacle now
to behold Mr. Day by denial of the IDEAL"
even under tile spurs of party lash, or from
whatever motive adding to his wing of tile
democratic party the unspeakable crime of
haJI kari. Yours truly,

yet as subject he is not exhausted. To
HayPc''s Magazine for August c. II. Farm
ham, that veteran traveller through Canada,
has contributed an interesting article on the
Montagnair Indians, who live in the neigh
borhood Of the Saguenay River The paper
abounds in fresh information, the domestic
and wild life of these Christian red men is
therein vigorously described, and clew is
furnished which helps to explain why the
Dominion Government has had so much less
trouble with its native wards than the
United States. The lines along which the
Roman Catholic priests have worked in their
efforts to bring the Indians ont of their ut
terly barbarous state are also clearly traced
Protestant missionaries might profit consid-
erably from a study of these methods.
Eleven excellent illustrations accompany

In the coming state election for As

no candidate will be looked on with
favor who does not unqualifiedly and
openly announce himself for constitu-
tional reform, and pledge himself to
see that bill looking to that end be

man who has not had enough of the

exists from the surplus which the
President claims, nothing short of he
roic treatment will do. The republi-
can measure should be broad and COM
prehensive and deal directly with the
surplus. The internal tax should be
taken off tobacco and alcohol for the
arts and manufactures. The duty on

the only measure practical at the pres
