Editorial Difference of Opinion on IN I'M
pOrtant Subject.
What is the force that Gusts disease: and
which Is the most convenient apparatus for
applying it? How far is the regular physi-
clan useful to US because we believe in him,
and how far are his pills and powders an
tonics only the material representatives of
his personal influence on our health?
The regular doctors cure; the homoeopath-
ic doctors cure; the Hahnemannites cure:
and SO do the faith cures and the mind
cures, and the so-called Christian scientists,
and the four-dolar-and-a-half advertising
itinerants, and the patent medicine men. They
all hit, and they all miss, and the great diff
ference-one great difference-in the result
is that when the regular doctors lose a pa
tieut no one grumbles, and when the irregl-
lar doctors lose one the community stands
on end and howls.-Rochester Union and
Advertiser
Nature cures, but nature can be aided, him
dered or defeated In the curative process.
And the Commercials contention is that it
is the part Of rational beings to seek and
trust the advice of men Of good character
who have studied the human system and
learned, as far as modern science lights the
way, how far they can aid nature and how
they can best avoid obstructing her.-Buf-
fdio Commercial.
1t is not our purpose to consider the evils
that result from employing the unscrupul-
GUS the ignorant charlatans and quacks to
prescribe for the maadies that afflict the
human family. We simply declare that the
physician who knows something is better than
the physician who knows nothing, or very
little indeed about the structure and the con-
dltions of the human system. OF course "he
does not know it all."--Rochester Morning
Herald.

His Only Virtue.

A custom prevails at the funerals
among the Dutch settlers at Natal, Cape
Colony, South Africa, for some one Of
the deceased's friends to make short
Grafton at his open grave, recording his
virtues and the good deeds, if any, per-
formed by him during his earthly sojourn.
1t happened, however, that an individual
died who was not considered to have
been possessed of any virtues whatever,
and had never performed any good deeds.
Consequently, in his case, the melancholy
obscquies were nearly being completed
in silence, when one of his countrymen,
raising his voice, said, in solemn tones :
"Him was berry good smoker"

The Care of the Throat.

This is the time of year when school
children begin to tie silk handkerchiefs
about the throat 1t is not well to do
this, if one can possibly do without the
mutliing, for if once begun, it must be
carried through the entire season, or
colds will result. Then, too, covering
the throat is apt to make it sensitive.
The muscles of the throat can be strength
ened by reasonable exposure. But
singers and speakers should always cover
the throat after singing or speaking,
when going into a cool room, OF into the
open air. A light bit of lace, OF any
open-wor< covering for the neck that will
admit of ventilation, is the best protec
tion.- The Ledger.

In Jute Clothes.

The merchants OF Dallas, Texas, are
determined that jute bagging shall not
be forgotten in the midst of the cotton
bagging celebration at the Piedmont ex-
position. So they have chosen as a rep
resentative of jute, Mr. George Freeman,
of that city, who will come to the expos
ition arrayed from head to foot in ute
bagging. AS Mr.. Freeman is six feet,
seven inches high, there can be no doubt
about his exhibiting the jute-bOgging

tion. Mr.. Freemans suit of iute is be-
ing made by the ladies of the town, and

When brought to bay, kangaroo
jumps like q flash for hunters chest,
and tries TO crush it in with his fore feet.
To prevent this each man wears across
his breast two or three inch thick
mating. Armed with spear
with a club attachment at the
other end, they ride upon swift horses
into herd. With the agility and equi-
poise of circus riders, they stand erect
upon their horses and use their spears
and clubs. The kangaroo is able to
jump clear over horse. As the game
is bagged it is skinned, and the skin is
stretched upon the ground and pegged
down to prevent shrinkage. The flesh
furnishes meat for the camp. Each
man places his private mark upon the
booty, and when they have one hun
dred skins apiece, they return to civili-
zation. There are twenty varieties OF
kangaroos, among them the blue, red
'Wallaby, black, gray, and forester, the
latter furnishing the best leather, as it
Lives mainly in wooded sections.
When the shipping ports are reached,
the hunters dispose of the skins by auc-
ton to the highest bidders, the skins
being now in constant demand. Kan
garoo hunters make large profits. One
man is known to have cleared four
thousand five hundred dollars, free OF
living expenses, in single wear.

Diphtheria of the Eye.

A disease known as diphtheria of the
eye has lately shown itself in Boston.
From leading eye specialist of that
CITY it was learned that the disease has
been very rare one, only very few
cases being known to him in the past
eight or nine years in that part of the
country. These, however, have in
every instance resulted in the loss of the
eve affected, and often in the loss of the
entire sight, The disease sprecisely the
same as throat diphtheria, and may be
caused by coming into contact with that
disease if the persons eyes have been sore

The Dangers of tho CITY.

1t is only few years since, says In
spector Byrnes, in an article on crimi-
nails and confidence, in the Christian
Union, that prominent actor, great
practical joker, now deceased, was walk
lug home late at night, accompanied by
visitor who had just arrived from the
country. They were on Fifth avenue,
near Twenty-third street. when they
noticed an ordinary street row going on
on the other side of the street. The
foreigner asked his friend what it was
all about, and the actor, seeing chance
for little fun at the visitors expense.
replied: "Oh! 1 suppose it's some fell
low being killed; 1 stumble over dead
man nearly every night on my home
from the thea.erp Our rural residents
hear so much about the wickedness Of
the great city that it is not surprising
they should expect to behold sort OF
municipal pandemonium. The rural
father who told his son, about to visit
New York, that he mustn't step on o
coal lid, because he knew they were
trap doors to let countrymen down into
cellars where they were murdered and
robbed, probably really believed his
grewsome tale.

The Decline of the Circus.


The writer ran across a travelling circus
man the other day who looked weary and
discouraged. 1t is called travelling circus
here, not because these two words are the
best that could be used, but because that
was what the proprietor called it. This
circus consisted of a small tent, four per
formers, a donkey and two wagons be
side he proprietor. The whole affair, peo-
pie and all, moved from one town to an
other in the two wagons. The donkey
seemed TO have nothing to do except to
stand before the entrance and call forth
the admiration of small boys, natives of
the country village.
The owner of this wonderful travelling
circus had enough to do He stood at the
canvas flap to take tickets and announce
the wonders of his show. Frequently he
resigned his post TO r substitute, who APP
peared from behind the rough stage. Then
the owner of the outfit would plunge be-
hind the stage and come forth as a negro
minstrel, an Irish clog dancer, a German
musician, or in any character demanded
by the programme. The price of admis-
sion was only ten cents, but few dimes
went into the pockets of the doorman.
I've got one Of the finest road shows in
the business" he said mournfully, but il

kind of thing, but they've got tired of
it, and Wen have TO give it up" II one
may judge by that performance It were a
charity indeed to the people for the man to
give it up"-New York Tribune.

ladies were correlled behind curtain in a
corner of the hall, and sticking their feet
out from under the curtain, the gentlemen,
drawn up in line in front of the curtain,
would each select shoe, and the lady who
happened to be the nearest TO IL would be
his partner at supper. For an hour
or more the banquet hall was
as jolly place as one could wish to find.
Mrs. r. Allen Hall, the presiding officer of
the chapter, presided at the table with her
usual grace and dignity, while Mr.. Hall
and Miss Mary Hall were the head walters.
