An unhealthy woman is rarely, if ever,
beautiful. The peculiar diseases to which so
many of the sex are subject, are prolific causes
of pale, sallow faces, blotched with unsightly
pimples, dull lustreless eyes and emaciated
forms. Women SO afflicted, can be permanent
y cured by using DR., Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription; and with the restoration of health
comes that beauty which, combined with
good qualities of head and heart, makes
women, angels of loneliness. "Favorite Pre-
scription" is the only medicine for women
sold by druggists, under apositive guarantee
from the manufacturers, that it will give
satisfaction in every case, or money will bt
refunded. This guarantee has been printed
on the bottle-wrapper, and faithfully carried
out for many years.

To Drive ont Summer Insects.

The chief drawback to summer is
the friendly insect. He converts
peace into discomfort, easeinto pain,
and too frequently piety into pro-
family. Wire nettings, gauze screens
and mosquito canopies he laughs at
and scorns pursuers and pursuit.
Yet a little aid from chemical science
destroys his career of usefulness. To
drive and keep flies and mosquitoes
from aroom may be accomplished by
sprinkling an ounce of carbolic acid
dissolved in q quart of warm water
upon the floor and furniture. A rose
YyiM6esAc o large atomizer affords
sprinkling. If the
Bile acid is unpleas-

below this are~.he
lint and thyme. Car
bUf86edAxA1 he or oil of pennyroyal
rubbed upon the hands and lace will
keep away the little pests. To re-
move the pain of mosquito bites,
strong ammonia should be applied
to the puncture. Ether dropped or
rubbed on the infamed surface evap-
CRATES rapidly, and generally stops
the smarting. Nearly all the strong
essential oils used in toothache are
of great value in this regard. Greco
sote, oil of cloves, cinnamon, penny
royal, peppermint and thyme, lauda-
mum and petroleum, either readily
givegreater or less relief. The various
preparations in the market such as
mosquito banisher, anti-mosquito,
insecticide, insectifuge, &C., are made
from the articles mentioned, and are
each and all good in their way. Most
of them, however, cost more than d
person can buy their ingredients for.
They are very convenient, neverthe-
less, and should be carried into the
country by travellers proposing to
go far from civilization.

Can the Disease be Communicated ~ This
Insects
A number of very interesting ex-
periments were made by Spillman and
Haushalter recently. with a view to as
certain what, if any. probability there
was of consumption being propagated
by the common house-Ay. In a report
Just made to the Academy of Sciences,
Paris. they embody the results Of their
experiments. Knowing tho interest
readers have in every thing that per-
tains to the cause Of this dreaded dis
ease. we briefly state the following In
regard to their observations: They
made repeated examinations Of the ex-
crement and of the contents OF the in
testines of the flies that fed upon tho
spit-cups containing the sputa of con-
sumptive patients. They invariably
found present in this excrementitiOus
matter the bacillus of tuberculosis. the
demonstrated contagious principle Of
consumption. They also found these
bacilli present in the dried excrcment
of the flies as it was scraped from the
walls and windows Of the rooms Occu-
pied by consumptives. II has been
we'll demonstrated that these germs
possess wonderful tenacity Of life.
and they suggest, in their report.
how easily the air or food and drink
may become polluted by the dried re-
mains, or dried cxcrement OF flies
having access to the sputu Of con-
sumptive patients. They further sug-
gest in their report that q suitable. re-
ceptive coil, Is quite as necessary as
suitable seed for successful implanta-
tion and propagation of tuberculosis.
The practical deduction from these
experiments is the great Importance
of promptly and effectively disinfect-
ing the sputa and spit-cups Of these
unfortunate patients-either by the
complete destruction Of the sputa by
fire, or by strong solution Of corrO-
sive sublimate. or of phenic acid. This
report. and the practical deductions
therefrom. only more strongly con.
firm us in the opinion that too great
care can not be observed in the ex-
pOsure OF the we'll to this disease
that consumptives ought not to cast
their expectOrated matter upon the
ground and upon the floor Of churches
and public halls, to be dessicated and
set afioat in the air. TO be breathed
into the lungs, and to contaminate our
food and drink. Then. too, greater
conveniences should be provided for
such cases by the railroads in the pas
senger coaches. As it is. almost in
variably the sputa il thrown upon the
foor-more or less becomes dried
and adherent, and then later set afloat
to produce its n0xious effects. -Bostou
