The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1890-11-20

Some Of the beggars who infest Park
row are very bright, indeed. By con-
slant practice they become admirable
judges of character from facial express
sion The ones who are most successful
are those who come out frankly and own
what they want money for. A very
common device is to ask for cent with
which to get over the bridge. The other
day well dressed man was approached
by sorrowful looking man at the bridge
entrance, who whined In a crying tone:
''Say, mister, will you please give me a
cent? Iwant to get across the bridge"
The man addressed showed his hand
into his pocket and drew out a ticket for
the bridge promenade. The tramp look
ed at it with disappointed expression
and then exclaimed:
"That amt no good to me, sir; want
to get over the bridge in hurry on the
cars. My grandmother's dying. New

4 New Theory Regarding the Cause of the
Terrible Disease.


4 New Theory Regarding the Cause of the
Terrible Disease.
Jonathan Hutchinson, writing in the
Friends Quarterly Examiner, makes
strenuous effort to prove that leprosy is
caused by constant fish diet and that
it is not contagious He calls attention
to the fact that at the present day in
England there are only few imported
cases, and no special precautions are
taken against contagion; yet the disease
never spreads.
The United States has remarkable inn
munity from the disease, and this in
spite Of the fact that emigration from
the leprosy districts of Norway to the
States has been very free. Noting the
parts of the globe where leprosy is still
indigenous Mr.. Hutchinson points out
that these are either on the seacoast or
in proximity to rivers or lakes, while
the climatic or raical conditions are ex-
tremely varied. He considers the evil
dence certain that the poison producing
the disease gains access to the body in
the form Of food, and that this must be
through fish, including edible mol
luscs, crustaceans, AID all living deni-
zens of water, both salt and fresh.
at may be" he adds, that the poison
is wholly absent from fish under most
conditions, and present only under ex-
ceptional ones. 1t seems very probable
that fish caught in the warm waters Of
the tropics are more dangerous than
those from northern seas, and that all
kinds of preserved or salted fish, or fish
in state of partial decomposition, are
more risky than that which is fresh and
sound. Lastly, it is possible that raw
fish may contain poison which is de-
stroyed by cooking

A LEVEL HEAD.
The Advantage of Presence Of Mind in
an Emergency.

During the late strike on the New
York Central Railroad, the militia
were ordered to be IN readiness in
case of a riot, but they were not called
out.
In an interview, Gov. Hill said the
troops were not to be called upon ex-
eept in case of An emergency. The
emergency had not arisen, therefore
they would not be ordered out. He
remarked that this was the first great
strike with which he had had expe-
rience, and he did not propose to lose
his head the only point at which
there had been serious trouble was at
Syracuse, and there a deputy sheriff
had lost his head and precipitated an
encounter. .p.a) c u
The strike continued several weeks,
and there was riotous action at vari-
GUS points along the road, but the
civil authorities were able to cope
with it without calling on the
militia.
The test of mans real ability
comes when an emergency arises
which makes q hasty call on his good
judgment and discretion. The man
who retains his presence of mind,
maintains his equipoise and exercises
sound discretion at such critical
junctures, is to be relied on and will
be put to the front.
Men with level heads have the
staying qualities which do not falter
in the face Of danger. Otis A. Cole,
of Kinsman, o., June 10, 1890, writes:
I'm the fall of 1883 1 was feeling very
i'll. consulted doctor and he said
| had Bright's disease of the kidnsys

due time l received an answer, stat
ing that the testimonial that he gave
was genuine and not overdrawn il

bottles Of Warmers Safe Cure; hav,

Gov. Hill is accounted a very sue
cessful man; he is cool and calculat
ing and belongs to the class that d,

cies arise.
