Causes and Treatment of Dinhtb.ria

The Chicago Mems, in an article on
diphtheria. says: 1.-THE best method of
checking the spread OF the disease would
be to see that the house drains are in
proper condition. In many cases drain
regulation will not be feasible In these
cases, as we'll as in those where it Is
feasible, disinfection of all sewer outlets
and inlects by chlorinatei lime or solu-
tons of chlOrinated soda will be an ex-
cellent means of preventing the entrance
OF dlphtherltic element or preventing
the depressing effects of sewer gas, which,
while not itself causing the disease. so
weakens the heart that the chief effects
of dlphtheria are localized there. The
earliest symptoms of the disease are in
dlstlnguishable from those of an ordinary
sore throat; indeed, the constitutional
symptoms of the latter often exceed
them IN severity. In the event of sore
throat occurring in a child in neighbor-
hood where diphtheria is prevalent, the
child's throat should be carefully exam
lned, and if whitish- gray patch be OBJ
served on the tonsils or palate or else
where, this should be touched with a
pinch of sulphur, or where this is not
feasible few drops Of tincture Of iodine
should be poured on handkerchief and
held before the mouth to inhale the
vapor while the physician is sent for
The child's strength should be kept
with milk, or, preferably, kumyss, fire.
quently given. Strong coffee is also of
great value IN sustaining the heart. The
child should be isolated from all other
children. Visitors should, if possible,
not be allowed and should be prevented
from kissing it. The Princess Alice lost
her life by kissing a diphtheritic child.
Cats, dogs, fowls, and rabbits should
be kept out of the room, since these
frequently convey the disease There
should be a small quantity of sulphur
burned from time TO time in the sick
chamber. Everything which comes
from the child should be disinfected. 1t
would be we'll also to fumigate the
apartment in which the child was first
taken sick. The child's food should be
frequently given and be of greatly
nutritious quality. The spread of
diphtheria can be readily checked by
isolating for a short time in a room by
itself each child which suffers from a
sore throat during diphtheria epidem C.
Children during such an epidemic should
be forbidden to indulge in indiscrim.-
nate kissing, whether of adults or chill
dren. The physician should be called
early in cases of sore throat in diph
theritic neighborhood.

Picked Beef.

The following we know to be good :
Cut the beef in convenient pieces and
salt down as usual, adding ''pinch'' of
saltpetre to each piece. Let it remain in
salt three days; then drain off the bloody
brine formed by the SAIL, wi pc each piece
with clean cloth and repack in the tub
or other vessel used; syrup Or
molasses cask will answer, but not a
whisky barrel. For the brine, take as
much water as will cover the beef; add
salt until no more will dissolve; tea cup
of ground saltpetre and a quart Of mo
lasses, or lis equivalent of brown sugar.
Boil and skim well. When the BRINE
thus prepared is entirely cold pour it
over the beef and keep the latter well
pressed under the brine. These proper
tions are for 200 pounds of beef. If the
brine should mould in warm weather re-
boil and skim 1t, adding half pound of
cooking soda, and when cold return to
the beef.-S0utae}n Cutti0atOr.

Using Sugar to Make the Fire 60.

A great mystery in certain house
hold in Boston has been solved. The
head of the house, who bought sugar By
the barrel, often wondered ''how in the
world the family used rs much sweeten-

not much given to going into the kitchen,
said she guessed they didn't use any
more than other folks. But one day she
did 60 to the kitchen, and arrived just
in time to see The cook in the act of
throwing a scoopful of graduated white
sugar on the fire. Sugar is exceedingly
inhammable, and its application made
the fire flash up in fine shape. The girl
confessed that she had regularly used
sugar to quicken the fire. "Sure, mum,

Fatalities Attending a Ring.

The tenacity with which people still
cling to superstItious notions is illus
trated by story from Madrid concern
ing the fatalities attending ring. The
late King Alphonso MI gave it to his
cousin Mercedes when he was betrothed
to her, and she wore it during the whole
of her short married life. On her death
the King presented it to his grandmother,
the Queen Christina. She died very soon
after, when it passed to the Kings sis
ter, the Infanta del Pillar, who at once
began to sicken and in a few days
she breathed her last. Alphonso then
handed it to his sister-in-law Chris
tina, the youngest daughter of the Duke
Of Montpensier; but in three months she
also was dead. His Majesty now resolved
to retain the baleful jewel in his own
keeping; but he too soon fell victim to
its mysterious malignancy. The ring has
now been suspended by chain around
the statue of the patron saint at Madrid.

rHE EXECUTIVE CoNMIrTt

Bro. W. B r. Garrett was born in Calhoun county, Ark, April 30th, lS5S, and was married to Miss Leo nora N, Dixon, daughter of C. C. Dixon, in Columbia county March 4th, 1885. Brother Garrett con- nected himself with the M. E. Church South several years ago, but only remained in this church q few months and then connected himself with the Baptist Church. and lived a devout life for three years. He suffered very much for six weeks prior to his death; his sickness and death was caused from a knife wound made by Keith, at Waldo, October l7, 1888, and died December 2d, 1888.
 It was the privilege of the writer to have known Brother Garrett for six years. He was industrious, genial and clever, a kind father and good husband, and a good citizen when not provoked to anger. A few days before his death he embraced his mother and wife and said he must die and was willing to go home to rest, and requested them to live so they might meet him in Heaven, and he felt that he would have peace and rest forever and ever with God.
 He leaves wife and one child, a mother and step-father. two sisters and five brothers. l would say to the bereayed wife, and mother, and sisters and brothers, the one you so dearly loved can never come to you, but you can go to him. he faithful and the Lord will cali you home, to walk the gold-paved streets with loved ones gone before. May the blessings of heaven rest on the be- reaved mother and her orphan boy, is the prayer of the writer. Let us sing:
 lt is not death to die,
 To leave this heavy road,
 And midst the hrothcrhood on high,
 To be Rt home with God

The habit of pardoning criminals in Arkansas for the purpose of re- storing them to citizenship has be- come such custom that our present Governor has gone into the business. Just what is to be gained by restor- ing thieves to citizenship we do not understand. If the law which makes the loss of it part of the punish ment for crime is good, why not let it take effect?- Augusta Vidette.
 We think there must be some mis- take in the above as to Gov. Eagle being accustomed to pardoning crlm- inals as charged, though he may have pardoned one or two, especially deserving ones. 1t is wrong tc restore citizenship to criminals, as it annuls that part of the law expressly and justly taking iron them the elective franchise. We hardly think Gov. Eagle will go into this pardoning business.
