Medical Instinct i'm Animals.

Animals get rid of their para site by uslng dust, mud, clay, &c. Those suffering from fever restrict their diet, keep quiet, seek dark, airy places, drink water and some times plunge into it. When dog has lost its appetite it eats that species of grass known as dogs grass. which acts as an emetic and purgative. Cats also eat grass. Sheep and COWS, when i'll, seek out certain herbs. An anImal suffer ing from chronic rheumatism al ways keeps, as far as possible, in the sun. The warrior ants have regularly organized ambulances.
 Latreilie cut the antenna of the ant, and other ants came and cov- cred the wounded part with a transparent fluid secreted in their mouths. If a chimpanzee is wounded it stops the bleeding by placing its hand on the wound or dressing it with leaves and grass. When an animal has a wounded leg or armhanging on it completes the amputation by means of its teeth. A dog on being stung on the muzzle by viper was oL- served to plunge its head repeat edly for several days into running water. This animal eventually recovered. A terrier hurt its right eye. It remained under a coun- ter. avoiding light and heat, d. though it habitually kept close to the fire. It adopted a genersl treatment, rest and abstinence from food.
 The local treatment consisted in licking the upper surface of the raw, which it applied to the wounded eye; again licking the paw when it became dry. Ami mals suffering from traumatic fever treat themselves by the con- tinued application of cold water, which M. Delaunay considers to be more certain than any of the other methods. In view of these interesting facts we arc, he thinks, forced to admit that hygiene and therapeutics as proposed by ami mals may, in the interest of psy- chology, be studied with advsnt- age.
 Many physicians have been keen observers of animals, their dis eases and the methods adopted by them, ill their instinct, to cure themselves, and have availed of the knowledge so brought under their observation in their practice. Dreams Picayune.

Facts Concerning Consumption.

I maintain that consumption can be cured, but it is still greatly beyond our control. There are numerous cases on record where a dissected lung has been found cov- cred with scars, which proved tbat the person was once afflicted with consumption but had been cured. A hemorrhage does not always in dicate consumption, as there is more than one kind of disease of the lungs which will cause them to bleed. Consumption is here ditary in a great degree, but many people whose bodies contain the germs of the disease will die of other causes simply because they commit no act of indiscretion that will cause the malady to manifest itself. The seeds of consumption turk hidden away in many an ap- parently sound bo1y. It is strange fact that many prize fighters and athletes die of consumption, but in not a few of these cases it is due to the tremendous strains and exertions put forth in contests, also to the various exposures and exercises for which athletes and bruisers are noted.
 Place three men out in a rain and let them get thoroughly drenched; as result one will con- tract rheumatism, another will suffer no inconvenience, but the third will take severe cold which will start him on the road to death. So it is every mans duty to guard against colds, and cure them as soon as possible. Many women have defective lungs as result of tight facing. There are hundreds of cases where certain portions of women's lungs are practically dead and useless, caused by tight lac ing, but the majority of them dle of something other than lung troubles. Again, 1t is a wrong idea to think that stoop-should- cred people are apt to have weak lungs. In Tennessee there are counties where the men are all tall, gaunt and very stoop-should- cred, but consumption among them is rare thing indeed, but that may be owing to the pure mountain air they breathe. The best thing for consumptives is pure air and change of climate Physician in Globe-Democrat.

THE ONE WHO STAYS At HOME

The wheels of the world go round and round.
In the press of busy throng,
Morn with its mstin melody
And night with its vesper song;
The tides are out and the tides are In,
Like the sea in its ebb and flow,
For there's always one to stay ct homo
Where there is one to go.
Abroad on the highways noisy track
There is rush of hurrying feet,
The sparks fly out from the wheels OF Time
To brighten the bitter and sweet;
But apart from the beaten road and path,
Where the pulse Of earth runs slow,
There is always one 70 stay at homo
Where there Is one TO 60.
Over and over good-byes are said.
In tests that die with the day,
When eyes arc wet that can not forget,
And smiles have faded away;
Smiles that are worn As over grave,
Flowers will blossom and blow;
For there's always one to stay at homo
Where there Is one to 60.
Always one for the little tasks
OF . day that is never done:
Always one TO sit down Ut night
And watch with the stars alone.
And he who fights on the worlds broad field
With banner and blast and drum,
Little dreams Of battle gained
By the one who stayed at home.

On the great question of Ovil-Serv-
ice reform the Democrats of Iowa have
declared as follows:
" In appointments to all of1ces, the duties OF
which may reflect the policy Of the Administra-
ton, persons should be selected whose princt'
pies harmonic with the party having tho re-
sponsibility Of such Administration. But sub
ordinates should be selected and retained for
their efficiency. Levying assessments upon
onhce-holders for partisan purposes can not be
too strongly condemned. and we commend to
the fullest extent every effort which Presi-
dent Cleveland has made In the direction Of
reform and the elevation Of tho civil service"
Better Democratic doctrine has not
been promulgated. Its basis is mo-
rality, liberty and Justice; the true
basis of the faith of the actual Demo-
cratic party, and the only foundation
of Democratic gospel that can hope
to command the approval of just men
in any civilized country Of the world.
