A Much Talked of Cure.
Kansas City Globe.

The American people, while looking
with intense interest upon the expert.
lnents of the famous Berliner, Prof.
Koch, with his so-called cure for con-
sumption, are inclined to accept with
good many reservations amy state
ments that are made. The Brown
Seuuard elixir fizzle is still fresh in the
public mind, and hundreds of people
who experimental with it 10 their sor-
row will never again believe in a
''new discovery" One thing, however,
to lead to confidence that Prof. Koch
is on the verge of, if, indeed, he has
not already made, u wonderful dis
covery in medical science, is the ex-
treme caution he observes. He is
giving out no statements, making no
claims beyond the fact given that
"although he has performed a number
of cures he does not yet consider the
time come for the publication of his
researches"
The Importance Of the discovery if
made is not to be Overestimatcd
and il will bring relief 10 millions OF
the human race. II Prof. Koch can
not only cure victim of consumption.
but can also prevent the propagation
of the disease, it is easy to see that the
human race must become more robust
than it has been for many generations.
In so-called civilized countries where
the conditions of life are more or
less artificial, pulmonary diseases are
the great enemy with which we have
to contend. 1t must be remembered
that Prof. Koch is still in the expert.
mental stage of his discovery and
that it is not yet fully established
whether he can successfully combat
the tuberculosis or not.
The long established efficacy OF Jen-
ner's discovery and The more recent
practical benefits of Pasteurs practices
will justify hope at least that Koch's
consumption remedy may prove sue
cessful.

nation on my part and not In any sense
a personal experience. The poem was
lost that evening accidentally by me
when l got something to eat, at the
Live aud Let Live chop-house in the
Bowery. 1 never saw II again until
1t was printed in the newspapers and
copied broadcast over the world.
l cared little for the poem and hated
to connect my name with II, fearing
that my folks might get hold OF II and
surmise from II that as soon as / got
into town had fallen when such was
not the case-at that time.
1t is a beautiful poem and has a
tinge of sadness in 1t that pleases a
great many. II was seized upon
greedily by the press and recited in
England by Prince Albert at beam
bag conrersazione just before his
death.
Many, I know, will at once say: If
yon wrote Beautiful Snow" why do
YOU not write something equally good !?
Ny answer Is that / can do II any
time when the conditions are right,
and some day, gentle reader, | shall
prove it to you'll l ever get hungry
enough.
In closing, let me say that my home
is at Tompkinsville, Staten Island, N.
", and though l am away most of the
year shall always be glad to see those
who were the sole authors Of this
beautiful poem, and If those who
wrote beautiful Snow" will come one

If the hogs to be slaughtered are
fed within twelve hours Of their kill
ing, the food is wasted, the meat VIII
be more disposed to sour, anu it VIII
be more difficult to remove the dis
tented intesiines and take from them
the lard. Nor is it well to let swine
drink on the morning OF the day they
are TO be killed. Hogs cannot be kill
ed too quickly. The more rapidly they
are killed, and the blood got out OF
them, the better. A well directed
blow on the head, between and just In
front of the ears, will make the ami
mails unconscious but the chances
for miss stroke are so many, aud a
stroke makes unfit for use consider
able meat. this method of killing can
not be recommended. The use of the
shotgun is no better. The rifle Is the
pom TO use. A ball on a line from
the base of the ear 10 the opposite eye
produces instant death and does not
cause the waste of any meat.

PRESS COMMENTS.


The Androscoggiu county Republican
Convention in Auburn to-day. was one the
largest and livelest ever held in that scene
Of 20 many large and live pc itical gather
ings. There were only two contested nom
nations, but the Canvass for each of these
b a been very active anG thorough and the re-
suit was 30 much in doubt before the asse N
bling of the convention that the interest was
intense. Nos that the representatives
Of the Republicans of the county have de-
cared their choice, the results are ac-
cepted with a unanimous disposition to give
the ticket full vote in September. We
hear zone but expressions of good will for
the nominees, among Republicans and there
are many congratulations for the Lewiston
Republican city committee on the success
of it's efforts to send to the convention a
delegation chosen by Republicans only.
We think the Republican party of Andres
coggin country is on n better footing, to-
lay, than it hss been for some time and
that the September breezes will spread
CHEEKY tidings from this section of the
State.
