The Progress of Diptheria.

The annual report of the State Board
OF Health of New York, presents some
important facts regarding the preva-
lence of diptheria-the most important
OF the zymOtic diseases. Probably few
persons are aware of the extent of the
havoc worked by this scourge. For
three years past almost exactly one
third of all the mortality from conta-
gious diseases has been due to it. and
during the past year the percentage
showed a slight increase. During the
winter months it sometimes reaches
nearly One-half the morality under
this head. The total number of deaths
from diphtheria has been increasing
during the past three gears. being 1900
out of so, 400 in 1885, 5000 out of Sc 500
in 1886, and during the twelve months
ending December 1st, 1887, 6,271 out of
$500. 1t is more destructive than
diarrh@ial diseases, which, in summer.
cause twO-thirds of the deaths from
ZymOtic diseases.

One OF these clocks in this generation
Is appreciated only as a rare relic.
The suggestive name, "Doctorina
Old Time" brings to our mind another
version of the title used for another
purpose" Old Time Doctoring."
We learn, through a reliable source
that one of the enterprising proprietary
medicine firms of the country has been
for years investigating the formulas
and medical preparations used in the
beginning Of this century, and even
before, with a view of ofascertaining why
people in our great grandfathers' time
enjoyed a health and physical vigor ST.
seldom found in the present genera
tlOn. They now think they have Sc
cured the secret or secrets. Thew find
that the prevailing opinion that then
existed, that Nature has a remedy
for every existing disorder" was true
and acting under this belief, our grand
parents used the common herbs and
plants. Continual trespass upon the
forest domain has made these herbs
less abundant, and has driven them
further from civilization, until they
have been discarded ,as remedial accents
because OF the difficulty of obtaining
them :

form of proprietary medicines. vet they
will be none the less welcome. for snf.
