A Cure For Diphiheria.

The following remedy is said to be
the best known, at least it is worth
trying, for physicians seem powerless
to cope with the disease successfully:
At the first indication OF diphtheria III
the throat of child make the room
close; then take tin cup and pour
into it a quantity of tar and turpentine,
equal parts. Then hold the cup over
fire SO as TO fill the room with fumes.
The little patient, on inhsling the
fumes, will cough up and spit out all
the membranous matter, and the
diphtheria will pass off. The fumes of
the tar and turp~ntine loosen the
matter in the throat, and thus afford
the relief that has batlle'i the skill Of
ph, sicians.

THE SLOT MACHINES
They Seem Adapted to Every Purpose,

J
asd are Seen Almost Everywhere.
The most successful device get in-
vented to draw money from peoples
pockets is the coin in. the-slot machine.
These machines are found in bar
rooms, in railway depots, in places OF
amusement. in hotels, in drug and
dry goods and clothing stores in
fact, almost everywhere, since
traveller can hardly turn around with.
out seeing one. These machines are
adapted to various uses, some correct
ly telling PERSONS weight or age,
Others supplying two and one. cen,
postage STAMPS, Others candy, others
again perfumery-apd so on, in end
less variety. Sometimes only one OF
these machines is kept in an estab.
ishment, while several Of them may
be found in some.
At the White Elephant on Broad
way between 3Oth and 3lst streets,
New York, there must be all of a
dozen Of these machines, and the
coin to be dropped in the slot varies
from "quarter" to a "penny"- as
"two- bits" and zone cent" are re-.
spectively denominased in Gotham.
The quartcr-in the slot machine shows
panorama OF noted beauties of the
stage and IN private life, in various
degrees Of dress and undress and in
all sorts OF posturings imaginable.
The SHILLING" for sidney machine
is u panorama of noted battles re

machines contain All atomizer which

This latter class Of machine is the
one generally found in dry goods

The perfection to which these ma

wonderful, and may we'll Justify the
expectation that ere long machines
can be made that will supply every
need OF suffering humanity, except
the money to operate them. Tha,
will probably always have to be earned
or stolen. as now.

Railroad Meeting.

One Of the most interesting railroad
meetings ever held here took place at
tho Council Room last Friday night. w.
II. Potter presided.
Frank limerick was the first person
called OH for remarks. He stated the
necessity of new roads to develop the
country back OF us, which would greatly
increase the prosperity OF Alpena.-
One Of the needed roads was in north
erly direction, and would pass through
the back part of Pressure Isle county,
and end at the Straits of Mackinac
This road, he said, would be built In less
than two years by the Detroit, Bay City
& Alpena railroad. The routes that the
citizens had to attend to lay in q south
westerly direction. One was some 75
miles in length and connected with the
Indiana 4 Grand Rapids road. The
other was to Cadillac, and was 1916 miles
In length. He believed IL would be a
good plan for committee to go to Grand
Rapids and interview the railroad OIL
cials, and stated the necessity OF pre-
limincry survey so that the cost of the
road could be ascertained.
Judge Kelley stated that the Grand
Rapids road would extend their line here
for $4,000 bonus.
"A lengthy discussion ensued in regard
TO extending the proposed line to connect
with other roads, or just TO build to the
sections of country naturally tributary to
this city, so MS to act as business creators.
w. L. Churchill and "A. w. Comstock ia
vorcd tho latter, while Geo. l.. Maltz and
Judge Kelley favored the former. The
former stated that their opinions we're

Argus on its Twentieth Year.

With this number the ARGUS enters on
the Goth year OF it's existence. From the
time II was first started there has been
no change In the ownership, as the
present publisher started the paper. We
believe the ARGUS has done its work
faithfully in tho past and II Is our inten-
ton TO see that IL continues to do so In
the future Its columns contain faith
full history OF Alpena. AS regards the
employees, one member of the staff has
been engaged OH the paper for over If
teen years. Another member Of the
force has been working in the Office for
seven years, and third has been near
ly four years. We extend our sincere
thanks to our many friends for their pat
ronage during the past, and hope TO re-
ccive continuance during the coming
year. We will try and do our duty in
making the paper faithful history of
the city and county during the next
year.

The Guards Leave for the State En-
campment.

Last Monday evening the Guards en-
barked on board the steamer City of
Mackinac, being enroute for the State en-
campmcnt at Goguac Lake, near Battle
Creek. There was a large crowd present
at the landing TO SEQ tho boys leave.
The steamer was full Of passengers before
her arrival here and the prospects Of the
Guards sleeping on the floor for want OF
state rooms were favorable. The wharf
was packed full Of people and it was hard
to get through the crowd. Including
those who left the proceeding day there
are some SO Of tho Guards. The boys
are expected back next Thursday. Among
the members were three doctors, so the
health of the warriors Is assured. At
the encampment two members Of the
company will be selected to take part in
the rife shooting contests. We wish the
Guards pleasant time and trust the on
campment will prove profitable to the
company.
