A NEW METHOD OF TREATING
DISEASE
Hospital Remedies D..

What are they? There is new depart
ure in the treatment of disease Ii con-
sists in the collection of the specifics used
BY noted specialists of Europe and Ameri-
ca, and bringing them within the reach of
all. For instance the treatment pursued
by special physicians who treat indigestion
stomach and liver troubles only, was OBJ
tanned and prepared. The treatment of
other physicians, celebrated for curing ca
tarrn was procured, and so on till these in
comparable cures now include disease of
the lungs, kidneys, female weakness, rheu-
mstism and nervous debility.
This new method of lone remedy for
one disease must appeal to the common
sense of all sufferers, many of whom have
experienced the i'll effects, and thoroughly
realize the absurdity of the claims Of
Patent Medicines which are guaranteed to
cure every i'll out of a single bottle, and the
use of which, as statistics prove, has ruined
more stomachs than alcohol. A circular
describing these new remedies is sent free
on receipt of stamp to pay postage by Hes
pital Remedy Company, Toronto, Canada,
sole proprietors.

Another fearful insect pest has appeared
mean -four moth. which during the past few
years has been doing serious injury in dot r-
ing mills in England, Belgium and Ger
many The insect is described as most
troublesome pest, infesting flour mills and
grain elevators, difficult to eradicate and
multiplying with great rapidly. Up to this
time it does not seem to have appeared in
mills in the States. In Canada, however,
during August, the attention of Mr.. James
Fletcher, the Dominion Entomologist. was
called to serious outbreak of this pest in
Canadian city. He communicated the
facts to the chronological Division at
Washington for the purpose of putting
those concerned upon their guard against
this Injurious insect, and at the same time
eliciting as much information as possible as
to It's occurrence in America.
Ia the latter part of August Mr.. Howard,
the assistant entomologst, who was in Can
ada, accompanied Mr.. Fletcher on a tour
of inspection to the worst in tested establish
ment, where the entire building was found
completely overrun with these creatures.
Hardly crack or nail hole was to be
found without the cocoon-, and every bit of
flour or grain remaining was spun together
by their webs. The moths were still flying
about in numbers, although great efforts
had already been made to destroy them
The Government of Ontario made
strenuous efforts to stamp out the
pest, as can be seen from the
bulletin issued. The machinery was
taken down and steamed, the walls were
scrsped down, and the elevator spouts and
loose wooden work, together with pipee,
bags and quantities of stock, were burned
up; belts, cups and cloth bags we're
boiled and the whole place was subjected
to sulphur fumes. Every inch Of space
about the machinery was subjected to the
fame of kerosene torch. For long time
before this energetic treatment was COM
menced for the pest was noticed as early
as March } the moths were flying
freely about the building, and hundreds
must have escaped through the open
windows to enter other mills and feed stores
and by depositing their eggs commence the
ruin of other mllers AMI dealers.
The serious nature of the pest is well in
dlcated by Miss Eleanor A. Ormerod, the
noted English entomologist, in her descrip-
ton of an infested mil in the north of Eng
land in 1888. The larve entered the
spouts and machinery, destroying the silks
and stopping the flow of -four through the
spouts by their webs. Remedies were tried
as follows; The mill was stopped for q
week the machinery was thoroughly
cleaned, and hot steam was run into the
machines and all through the mill. The
walls and floors were whitewashed with
freshly slaeked lime and kerosene, and all
MOTHS that were seen were captured and
killed. This heroic treatment failed to de.
stroy the pest

President Eliot and Newspaper Re
port0rs

President Eliot, Of Harvard, is re-
celving some hard blows for his recent
uncalled for attack at Philadelphia upon
newspaper reporters. In order to get
out OF the unplea SAINT position In which
his ill-considered remarks have placed
him. he has been obliged to east a re-
Election upon the very Institution he
represents.
Because men who were black sheep
at Harvard afterwards became reporters
Mr.. Eliot would presume that the morale
Of the entire fraternity Is low.
There ia one thing certain, however, IL
ing in journalism. they earned It by hard
and honest industry. They earned il
under the eye aud direction of superiors
whose energy, industry, breadth of
mind and strength of character has
been aud Is their stock In trade. "a well
AS the secret Of their success. Those
reporters NAV have been wild boys at
Harvard, but IL they made successful
reporters We will warrant that their
"larks" were few and far between.
We should not care to go to the
length of some of our eontempor;s-
ries In declaring DIR. Eliot weak man
or man of small calibre. He certainly
Is not practical man Of affairs. He
lacks in Judgment and tact. In dealing
with affairs outside the realm OF scholar
ship he Is erratic and weak. As = schol-
ar, however, we think all will concede
he has been very far from failure. His
course has been aggressively progress
sive. He has pushed outside the
old ruts with energetic vigor. Many
educators believe that in unduly enlarg-
ing the field of electives he has lowered
the general standard of scholarship In
the institution over which he presides
1t has rendered possible too many soft
snaps" and has not enforced the neees-
sity Of work-especially in mathematical
aud classical lines-to the extent that it
should. There Is evident, however. pur
pose to correct this error. aud perhaps the
experiment will prove Of value to educa
tors all over the country. While we can
not agree with DIR. Eliot In many Of the
positions he has taken, and while it
