TEXAS MEDICAL OPINION.
come.

The last number of Daniels Texas Med
ical journal, published in Austin-the Or
gan of the Texas Medical association one
of the very best numbers Doctor Daniel
has yet issued, contains many interesting
and instructive articles.
One, and the leading one in the num-
Der, is an able and well-written paper on
that terrible malady which causes so many
parents to neutrality-suspicious.. The pa
per IVES originally read before the Travis
County Medical association by its presi-
dent, Doctor John Preston, first assistant
physician of the State Lunatic asylum of
this city; a gentleman whose scientific
ability has been recognized by the County
Medical association in its election of him
as its president, and whose urbanity
in his official position at tn
asylum has made him hosts
of friends in this city. Doctor Preston
gives clear, succinct account of the
symptoms, etiology, prognosis and treat
ment of diphtheria.
The journal also gives an account OF
the proceedings of the State Medical as
ISOLATION at its recent meeting, and among
other things the remarks of Doctor
Swearingen, of this city, on state medical
legislation. Doctor Swearingeu thought
and correctly, that reform in this direc
ton must come slowly, ana that our legis
lstors will suffer no dictation. Doctor
Swearingen might have gone step fur
ther and held that the movement fol
state control of medical practice to bt
successful must come from the people
themselves.
One other very interesting article is thai
of Doctor Dock, giving a statement Ct
two cases of genuine leprosy in Galveston
Doctor Dock holds it not contagious snc
that it originated in the Island City. Il
not this against all previous ideas of lep
rosy? II these cases originated in Gal
weston, why has leprcsy never appeared
there beforeH Has the climate there JUS
become favorable to such disease?

Little Joe was heArtbroken over this new order to "move on;" but he shouldered his broom and started on. But that wAs the last crossing Joe would ever sweep. Before he found another he was picked up by policeman, half dead from exhaustion, and sent to the childrcn's hos pital where for the first time In his life he lay In small white bed, clean cool and sweet that he thought he must have gone to heaven. He soon grew delirious, and his great dread was that he should have to leave that beautiful bed co he kept on repeating: "That feller said musn't stop; must keep movin' on, movin' on." A kind nurse sat by his aide and asked him if he knew his prayers. Joe said no, but he would like to learn them. So the nurse began teaching him the words of "Our Father" Slowly Joe repeated each word, in weak voice, until they came to the petition, "Deliver us from evil" No answer came from the pale, thin lips, and the nurse, thinking he had stopped to rest, repeated them again. Still no answer. Our Father had heard Joe's first prayer, and his weary young soul had been received into paradise. The forlorn little body would suffer no more.

Sad Amiction,

A little sewen-year old son of Jas. Shay died
last Friday night, after extreme suffering for
a number of days. In order to possibly save
the little ones life an operation was perform
ed by Drs. Shoemaker and Harrison, assisted
by DR.. Haly, on Friday evening, the boy dy-
ing few minutes after. The operation re-
vealed the fact that the bowels were badly
inflamed and decomposition had already set
in. 1t was miracle that the child lived as
long as it did in this condition. Mr.. and Mrs.
Shay have the deep sympathy of the con-
munity in their sad affiiction.
Mr.. and Mrs. Shay requst us to return
their heartfelt thanks to those kind friends
who rendered them assistance and consola-
tion in the hour of their recent trial and af-
Fiction, the death of their little son. The
administrations of these friends will always
be remembered and their prayer is that like
affliction may never come to them.

Peter Brilliant, of Harrison township, was

lowest penalty under the law. This should
be warning to farmers to be more careful
about leaving this pest grow upon their

east of Fremont, was buncoed out of $500 a
few days ago. Two strangers bargained for
his farm, and terms were agreed upon. They
were to pay $500 cash to bind the bargain,
and the balance when the deed was ready.
They offered Dawly check on the Lima

by very estimable lady, and says the editor
was gratifed to see her stocking up. The
e7itor says he was never so astonished in his
born days as he was when the paper came out,
to meet the millinery lady and have her
strike him across the brow with her um-
brella and tell him he was liar and that she
would tell his wife, He didn't know what
she was mad at and he had to read the item
over hundred times to see if there was any
thing spiteful in it.

An important feature of the business trans.

hired at $45 per month. A night watch has
been long-felt need in Napoleon. We hope
Mr.. Travis will cage for the night all suspic-
ious characters found upon the streets after
reasonable hours of the night.
