Tho ptedisposing cause Of boils Is a
lowering of tho health ut somo point.
In tho opinion Of many students Of dis.
caso the immediate cause Is n microbc,
which finds it's way into sonio gland Of
The skin. where II scts up n peculiar In.
Gammation. Generally the gland is an
oil gland. In tho armpits 1t IS q sweat
glanl. On the cyelid, where tho boil Is
known as n 'sty," It is q glaud Of still
another sort.
Tho first indication Of q boil is n slight
Itching, followed by n reddish pinplo
with u hair in the center. Sometimes
the pulling out Of this hair will arrest
tho development Of the sore. AS tho
pimple grows, the rcdness extends and
becomes moro intense, and tho part be-
gins to throb with pain. In about five
days 1t breaks, pus oozes out, tho pain
abatcs, and soon after the dead tissue
tho so-callcd ''core"-cscapes followed
by rapid healing. Sometimes no core
appears, nor does tho boil suppuratc.
This is known rs tho ''blind boil" 1t
Is very hard and painful, and is long in
healing.
Sometimes y malignant form OF boil
appears on the road or neck, or especial
~ on tho lip. At first IL resembles an
ordinary boil, but 1t gives rise to blood
poison, and after extreme suffering is
fatal in about five da n.
y carbunclc somewhat resembles n
boil, butts much larger and moro pain
full. 1t tends to spread and has several
openings. 1t produces n great disturb
uncc of the whole system, and is very
dangerous in It's tendency. The constitu-
tional symptoms OF boils arc slight,
though in somo cases there may DO con-
siderable fovcrishncss.
Tho treatment should be, in the first
place. constitutional, aiming to restore
tho vigor OF tho system. The diet
should be generous, without cxcess, and
easily digcstiblc. The patient, while
avoiding exhaustion, should take a
proper amount OF exercise, havo an
abundance OF pure air. and wash his
body daily with cool water and soap.
Local treatment, also. Is needed. TIC
arrest the progress OF n boil at It's carly
stage. Sir Erasmus Wilson advises tho
application Of n solution OF sugar Of lead
every six or twelve hours with n cancels
hair brush. II this fails, he would pro-
mote suppuration by spreading OH it n
wash-lcathcr plaster OF galbanum and
opium, cut in tho middle for tho escape
OF the pus.
III the pain continues to increase, he
would apply soothing applications.
When tho boil begins to heal. he would
keep tho skin around it dry, clean IL
with tar soap, and smear it with yellow
resin ointment. dressing the broken
surface with lint spread with tho same
ointment. Keeping the dressing in posi-.

seems to be an off year with the Repub-
lican, but were it not 50 that paper is
not long enough one way and it is too
short the other to cover the Seventh con-
gressional district. The truth is that the
Dodge City convention was to man

and overwhelmingly for Hallowell.
There is no mistake about this for a can
vass of the convention was made. The
Seventh district of Kansas is the largest
and most pOpulOus congressional district
in the United States and the Seventh
district is for Ingalls, beyond any ques-
ton. Wouldn't the Republican feel bet
ter if it retained its gall and gave its at
tention to its own district and leaving
the Seventh to the EAGLE and its cotem-
poraries.

The coarser grades of cotton cloth are
one of the chief articles imported by the
people of Southern and Central America.
The American manufacturer gets his raw
cotton 50 mnch cheaper than the Lam
cashire mill men that he can pay much
higher wages than they do and vet sell
goods at a lower price. IL Is far better
for the United States % manufacture its
own cotton into cloth and exchange it
direct for the coffee, sugar. hides and
other products of Latin-American coun-
tries than it is 10 send that cotton to
England 10 a manufacturer there. who
afterwards ships it 10 South America "a
cloth, the making of which has given
employment 10 English labor and q
profit 10 English capital. Meanwhile
the United States buys It's coffee. etc,
with gold. and thus keeps up a constant
drain on the stock of specie. Let MIR.
Blaine have his way and there Will be no
surpluses in the gTanaries of western
farmers or the ware houses of New Eng
land cotton spinners. The farmer viii
thrive and the artisan viii not have to

THE JOHN A. LOGAN OF KANSAS.

Some twentv-four hours after its deliv-
cry everybody seems to have Weakened
up to the fact that the speech of Judge
Sluss at the opera house night before
last. in which he denominated Colonel
HalloweIl the John A. Logan of Kansas,
was one of the best of his life. 1t was
inspired of the moment and from the re-
Election that Hallowell commanded a
regiment at % years of age and had par
ticipated in forty odd battles. Forget
ting his audience, unmindful of the place
and occasion, centering his soul on mem
cries of the conflicts of many bloody
fields, with the hero of charge before
him, his graphic description of how, at
Montgomery Hill, under the eyes of old
Pap Thomas, that victorious charge was
made by a beardless boy, was SO vivid,
SO thrilling and so intensely realistic
that old veterans grasped the backs Of
seats, as with an eagerness that seemed
hard of restraint and with blazing eyes
and bated breath, they caught the burn
ing words of the dilating form of the
man who again led them through the
lines and over the parapet of the enemy.
After all, the effective power of the
ten minutes talk was probably as much
in the moment, the attitude and the
earnest action of the speaker as in the
words. 1t was a drama with not only
the text, but all the stage accessories.
Many declared it to be the best ten min
ute speech ever made by Sluss, but
Sluss is famous for his ten minute
speeches. The synopsis published Of it
this morning is as was taken by a re-
porter and it may therefore not only
contain errors and omissions, but must
lack, inevitably, the spirit Of delivery.

HollowelPs Nomination.

From the Emporia Republican.
The Republican congressional conven-
ton of the Seventh district made two
blunders. 1t endorsed John j. Ingalls,
and nominated James r. HOllowell.
Either of these would have oeen bad
enough by itself but both taken together
burden the party in that district with
load which it will find very heavy TO
carry through the campaign. The NOM
nation of Hollowell is a concession to
the resubmission wing of the party. 1t
was a sop to Wichita and Sedgwick
county, which, it was feared. were about
to go over body and breeches to Democ-
raCy. To nominate man Objectionable
to the people of the district in order to
save county to party, Is not a wise
or courageous thing to do. Outside of
Sedgwick, Hallowell has little strength
The people do not like his insincere and
straddling course on prohibition and
have little admiration for him as a man.
The majority of the delegates We're against
him, and had there been a strong man
before the convention to combine upon,
he would have been defeated in spite of
the desite to placate the reSubmission
element. There was no necessity for en-
dOrsing Ingalls, personally; a general en-
dorsement of the Kansas delegation
ought to have been satisfactory to his
friends and it would not have invited the
active hostility of those who are deter
mined TO be rid of him. The Republi-
can vote Is by no means solid for In
gals in the Seventh district. and when
it is considered that the Alliance vote is
almost unanimous against him. the I'M
wisdom Of thus endorsing his empty
record is plainly apparent. The platform
was carefully drawn with a view to cap
turing the Alliance vote. but this en-
dorsement and nomination are likely to
more than neutralize any good effects
the platform might produce.
Just how strong personally the ALI
ance candidate, Jerry Simpson. Is, or
what his past record. we are not in
formed. But if he possesses any ele-
ment of popularity and has good Re-
publican and Prohibition record. he
ought to receive enough votes besides bis
Alliance support to easily defeat j. r.
Hallowell on John J. Ingalls, platform.
