The Removal of warts.

These disfgurements of the hand usu-
ally are never injurious outgrowths, as
they are simply the overgrowths of the
papill@ Of the skin with a covering of
cuticle. The separate papill@ can be
seen in the seed-wart, as they stand up
separately and prominently. 1t is COM
monty thought that warts can be pro-
duced anywhere on the body by inocula-
tion-that is If the blood from one wart
should get into scratch or cut on an
other part Of the body it would produce
warts. In some cases this may be true,
and some kinds of warts are certainly
contagious. The common, hard, dry
wart should be washed with a solution
of soda around its base, and glacial acetic
acid applied. Chronic acid and nitric
acid will also answer the purpose. The
wash around the WAITS prevents the
acids from spreading over the hand,
and causing sores. The warts are very
peculiar in many respects. They come
and go 80 suddenly that it is sometimes
difficult to account for their disappear
ance. This fact has led to many popu-
lar cures and charms, which many intel
ligent people still believe in.-Yankee

COMMUNICAIEO
Mount Vernon Avenue.

In regard to the controlling influences o
the Mount Vernon Avenue, I believe thai
the citizens CT Alexandria are masters of the
situation, and that they can successfully
hold it against all opposition If they have
the desire, and will act on q determination
30 to do. They may have the contemplated
highway laid through Washington street,
and 30 secure the realization of one of the
most prominent aims of the origiDators oil
the enterprise. They may do very much to
keep il within the bounds of strictly "me
mortal designs" throughout its entire course,
from the National Capital 10 the "home
and tomb" at Mount Vernon. But there
must be no DELAY. The necessity for prompt
action is urgent. The schemers have laid
their plans with tact and mean to press
them If possible 10 success. The original
charter is already before the House of Del
egates at Richmond, awaiting action for its
alteration, 80 that it may be possible to lay
the road around by John 0 'Groat's house or
Robin Hoods barn, but anywhere other
than through Washington's own town.
And while it is there pending the contem
plated change, now is the accepted time for
your citizens through their City Council, and
particularly through earnest remonsrances
to the Legislature by names of petitioners,
to manifest their disapproval of any new
tinkering of its we'll delibsrated and suitable
provisions.
A few days ago heard one of the con.
verts of this new projsct of changing the
route from the city sly th't 1.-THE avenue
was going to be too big q thing for Wash
ington street that $50 feet was to be the
width of the road, and that 1t would be q
great pity to dwarf it down from such mag.
nificent proportions to 100 feet merely to
satisfy the purely sentimental ideas of such
as are clamoripg for the place of location
provided for 1t in the charter" A highway
$50 feet in width Well, that would cover
over two or three Apiau ways and nearly
two Pennsylvania avenues. But that is
what this faction of plotters, these rulers or
runners, are now demanding. And when
such dimensions shall stare the average
Congressman in the face, and his vote shall
be asked to carry them out in construc-
ton, they will seem to him 80 pre-
posterous that he will be apt to treat
the whole thing as huge joke.
For highway 80 spacious and pretenllous,
an expenditure of many millions would be
required for original structure, alone, and
tens of thousands annually thereafter for
necessary repairs. "a big thing indeed"
the project would be under the provisions
of the new charter. And the very e1trava-
gances of their demands would ultimately
defeat the enterprise. No, this avenue pro-.
ject should be kept within proper and reas
enable bounds if success is desired. and par.
ticula,ly should the memorial ides'' be
preserved and kept alive as governing
principle in every stage of It's progress unto
the end. This desirable purpose may be
subserved if the people of Alexandria will
take advantage Of their Opportunity. Will
they do il? w. b. SNoWDEN.
