The study of leprosy-its con-
tagiousness, treatment and cure
ls engaging the attention of the
medical fraternity in every part of
the world, and any facts which
tend to throw additional light on
the subject will be eagerly re-
ceived. Our attention has been
called to an article in the April
number of the Occidental Medical
Times, written by DR.. S. B. Swift,
resident physician of the Ieper
settlement on Molokai. It is illus
trated with portraits of three
lepers who are referred to. This
article is reprinted on the first
page of to-day's issue, with the ex-
ception of two or three para
graphs and the portraits. It re-
lates chiefly to the case of Keanu,
who it will be remembered was
sentenced to death for murder
some three years since, and after
wards reprleved, on condition that
he should be inocculated with
leprOns virus, which was done,
and the virus took effect, develop
ing the disease to such degree
that he was sent to the leper asy-
lum on Molokai. DIR. Aiming, at
whose suggestion the experiment
was made in the interest of science,
claims that it proves clearly that
leprosy can be and is propagated
by inocculation, and that this in
stance furnishes proof of the COR
rectness Of the theory.
DR.. Swift has had opportunities
to study the history of Keanu, and
to become conversant with some of
the peculiarities of this disease,
and has not been able to agree
with DIR. Arnold in his published
conclusions. He shows that Ke-
anu belonged to a leprous family,
and was tended while IN Jail by a
leper, and concludes that the vac
cination made by DIR. Aiming
served only to hasten the develop
ment of a disease already in his
system. To those interested in
the subject, the article will be read
with interest, and it furnishes an
other instance where "doctcrs
will disagree"

IN your ydIu
1t needs cutting, and you
haven't made up your mind
what sort of a lawn mower
YOU want! We're going to
tell you.
If the grass is very long, get
a Pennsylvania high grass cut
ter. 1t will work just as well
in short grass as any other,
but the ordinary mower will
NOT do for high grass.
If you manage with that
antiquated affair you've been
using to keep the grass short
but ragged, we advise you to
get one of our Pennsylvania
or "New Easy Lawn Now
ers. Either of them will do
the work and you may not re-
cognize your lawn after its
improved appearance.
When you have cut the
grass nicely you will want a
new piece of hose-rubber
hose, mind you, not merely
called rubber, but made OF
rubber. We have it. After
that you want a sprinkler that
will throw the water broad
cast and give the best substi-
tute for natural rainfall. The
California Sprinkler is the
one to do this. We sell them.
Procure the articles we have
mentioned, water your lawn
night and morning and it will
look like a bed of emeralds.
Now is the time to improve
your garden, and we have all
the tools necessary to help you
What do you do about spoons
+. for your after-dinner coffee
We have some that will tickle
your fancy, and they're cheaper
than the cheapest.
You may not know it, but
, we have the only genuine
!, lockwood Pottery for sale or
these islands. For decoration
it is superior to anything of the
kind made. The color gener
ally is a dark brown, and the
vines and flowers modelled or
the pieces are as delicate as
nature. Some pieces are use
full. Chocolate jugs, smokers
sets, and small pitchers for in
stance. No two pieces alike
when one is made the mould
is destroyed. No danger Of
you neighbor copying your
good taste.
Silverware is an odd thing
for hardware people to deal in,
but it is customary here and
we have the best-same as
everything else. Choice bits,
odd designs in smokers sets
and champagne holders and
the best shakers for-lemon-
AIDES we have ever seen. They
answer for something stronger
just as well.
Silver ice tongs for the table
are useful and pretty, Some

ice at table you will find them
more convenient than spoon
