Drunkartl's Dyspepsia.

Alcohol, says DIR. Oswald, in the Joice,
has been mistaken for peptlc stimulant,
but few physicians would nov deny tile
correctness of DR.. Graham's conclusion
that mo form of indigestion is more diff
cult to cure than drunkard's S dyspepsia"
The proximate cause of that experience
| can be realized by study Of the plates in
the British College of Surgeons Cor simi-
lar set in the Medical Department of Co.
lumbia College, New York;, representing
the progressive effect of alcohol on the
tissues of the human stomach. Instead of
the pale reddish color of the gastric mem
brane in state of health, the lining of the
drunkard's stomach exhibits all the evil
dences of chronic inflammation; engorge-
ment of the blood vessels liberation, con-
traction and celosity of the mucous tegu-
ments and an aphthous or mildewed ap-
pearance of the lacerated surface. Alcohol
often completely changes the structure of
the liver. 1t studs it with tubercles, and
by obstrueting the vascular ducts expands
the diseased organ to twict and some times
TO ftFG times liS natural Size. Dul aL the
same time more and more disqualifies it
for the proper performance of its functions.
The weight of a healthy liver varies from
five to eight pounds; and Professor You
mans mentions the post mortem examina-
ton of an Englist. drunkard whose liver
was found to weigh fifty pounds, and who,
nevertheless, had died from deficiency of
bile. BY congesting the blood vessels and
the bile secretiag cells, beer as we'll as
brandy tends to disorder digestive func-
tions even of moderate drinkers; and after
continuing the use of alcohol for five years
few dram drinkers fail To experience the
consequences of the disease known as
"fatty degeneration OF the liver COM
plant which in many cases destroys the
tissue OF four-fifths of the affected organ,
as tubercles destroy or corrupt the tissue
of the lungs.

as the country grows, the amount of work
to be done increases. About the only
thing satisfactory about the printing Office
is its site. The location is in q neighbor-
hood where workmen can live at reason
able rate and rents are low, and it is con-
venient to the Capitol, with which the
hurried business of the Congressional
Record is transacted.
OF more purely local importance is the
question of new city Post-offiee. The
present building is an a-cient hotel dark,
dirty and unhealthy. The majority of the
clerks work under gaslight, and sewer gas
reieus supreme. The difficulty of pro-
curing suitable site has thus far pre-
vented Congressional action in this case.
1t will be, however, of some interest to
learn what Congress will do for two of the
hardest worked classes OF people in the
employ of the Government.
The ballot-b box investigation has degen-
Grated into merry farce in which the
dirty linen of Ohio politicians is being
washed for the edificaiion of the public.
The examination is of the most slipshod
character, and the Committee on Accounts
are about to put stop 10 any further ex-
penditure of Government funds in mileage
have already been established. There will
probably be an end to the case this week.

DO women breathe Like Men.

DR.. Kellogg of the Battle Greek Sanitar-
comparative examination of the breathing
of women and men. lie has had an in
strument constructed called the pneumo-
graph, which accurately records each res
piratory movement He finds that men,
in breathing, use chiefly the lower part of
the chest and diaphragm; while women,
from their mode of dress, are unable to use
the lower part Of their lungs to any ex-
tent, and consequently use chiefly the up
per part of the chest. But this is true on
ly in the ease of civilized women Who wear
the modern form Of dress. A Chinese wo-
man brcathes Just as man does. He
says:
IL visited little eoony OF Mexican To-
dians, where the woman wore loose dresses,
without light bands or corsets, and
here found men and woman breathing
just alike
Indian women breath just as men do,
and Scotch woman who had never worn
a corset used her respiratory apparatus ex-
actly as man does. Where animals were
examined, male and female breathed Just
alike. Woman then as nature made her,
is not physically so different from man af-
ter all And who wonld dare to say that

This appears like very great expanse OF

amount to if beset at once by million OF

near Salem, Ohio, and the farmers name
was Samuel Wilson Mr.. Wilson was
owner of rather large and well-tilled
Western farm, which in looking over later
he assured ME but Il short time previous
was covered with dense growth of heavy
timber We asked him how he managed
to clear the land so completely of timber
in so short time. and in reply he said that
