A Leper Village In Colombia.

A strange community is that of Aqua
di Dios, the leper village of Colombia, as
described by u Consul at Bogota.
Situated at about fourteen hundred feet
above the sea level, with a dry, sandy
soil and a temperature of e%ighty-two de-
grees to eighty-five degrees Fahrenheit,
this spot has been chosen for the lazaretto
by the Government on account of its
ancient reputation for the cure of leprosy.
Some five hundred and twenty sufferers
from this terrible visitation dwell here,
and form about one-third of the popula-
ton; but the most remarkable fact re-
garding the settlement is that lepers and
healthy persons are described as living on
terms of perfect intimacy, there being no
specific leper quarter, though every house
in the village stands apart in a garden.
Mr.. Wheeler states that there is no
case on record of the disease having been
contracted here by contagion. Even
where the lepers have married healthy
persons, the husband or wife has never
been known to take it from the other.
On the other hand, the mournful fact il
admitted that children born of sucl
unions are generally afflicted.

The treatment is simple, and may be
summed up in good,,nursing. Good nursing
may be shown by placing the animals af-
licted in dry, warm, we%ll-ventilated
shelter. Cattle aud horses should be
blanketed and given warm flaxseed tea,
in which a t%easpoonful of aromatic spirits
of ammonia or an ounce Of sweet spirits
of inter is mixed night and morning. Six
ounces of linseed oil may be given to
cattle, and to horses a small ball of aloes.
Pigs may have the faxseed tea in milk in
which half of the quantity of either of the
spirits above advised may be given. Stables,
pens and hen-houses should be kept clean.
The diet should consist of bran mashes,

PHYSICIANS AND TEMPERANCE.

Upon no one does responsibility for tie
continuance of the widely prevelant, iniur-
ious social drinking usages rest more heavily
than upon the members of the medical pro-
fession. Medicine, in the true sense, is pre-
ventive as well as remedial. Among the
agencies productive of disease, physical and
moral, intoxicating liquors are pre-eminent.
The attitude which physicians as a class as
sume toward the use of intoxicating bever-
ages, personally and professionally, therefore
involves very largely for good or i'll, the in
terests of the temperance reform.
There nave been from the beginning, since
the time of DR.. Benjamin Rush, and are now,
a few eminent American physicians who
have done much to encourage, by both ex-
ample and precept, the cause of temperance.
But they have been and continue to be a small
minority of the profession as a whole. A
very large majority of physicians upon
social and festive occasions, at their ban
quets. ETC., do not hesitate to provide freely
and to partaKe of intoxicants. The Interna-
tional Medical Congress, held last year in
Berlin, appears to have been a striking and
most unSeemly obiect-lesson of this kind.
A Berlin correspondent of the Philadelphia
Medical and Surgical Reporter writes:
1.-THE disgraceful scenes at the banquet given
by the city of Berlin to the Medical Congress
were recently the topic of discussion in coun-
Gil. A Councilman called it the medical
schuetzenfest,' and emphasized the waste of
AACASI ~ Ne3 - a0Nn @a@
money spent by the city for the Rathhaus
banquet was really enormous, and the result
was the total intoxication of most of tho
shining lights of the profession"
This correspondent, whom we assume to be
a physician, and from the high professional
standing of the journal in which the letter is
published, also to be trustworthy, gives addi-
tional details of the great medical drinking
bout in the German capital as follows: II
regret TO say that the bigger the man the
whose name is a household word all over the
medical world artificial respiration was
practiced for almost an hour, and another
professor who has revolutionized one of the
most important of medical branches had a
bad cut in his head. the result of a fall. A
French physician who has made his name
renowned by fighting intemperance through
exposure of the injury inflicted upon the
organism by alcohol, was unable TO spell his
own name. By a queer coincidence l also
saw two men hugging each other who are
known as irreconcilable antagonists in sci
ence, one a leader in German bacteriologists
and the other a well-known Paris professor
who does not believe in bacilli"
Such disgraceful alcoholic excuses on the
part Of eminent medical men, If not thus
we'll attested, would seem we'll nigh incred-
ible. We may hope that they would not, al
least, in grossness and want of common de-
cency, be equaled at any kindred gathering
in this country. Yet we remember that the
liquor supply for the late Internationa
Medical Congress, held in Washington, al
reported in the public journals, was very
large. -NdtiondL Temperance Advocate.

DROPPING WOOL.

A correspondent desires to know what
makes sheep drop their wool in winter
sometimes. The most prevalent cause is
too warm quarters. have seen a bunch
of sheep shut in a tight room for the
purpose of raising winter lambs, and
shearing was neglected. BY spring more
than half of the wool had dropped, and
they looked more ragged than the pro-
verbal street arab. Sheep are sensitive
to storms and cold winds, and should be
protected from them. Sheltered from
these is all the housing they require.
The coolest nights of winter, if still and
it does not snow, they choose to lie out
in the open. A shed fully boarded on
three sides, and four or five feet up on
the other, that there may be no draft of
air, makes the most suitable quarters.
Another cause of the wool falling is
feeding a too heavy grain ration at the
commencement of grain feeding. Here
great caution should be observed. They
should be seasoned into it gradually be-
fore full feeding is entered upon.-Nd-

ONE cIrY's EXPERIENCE.

Plainfeld, N. j., a city of about 12, 900
population, had a year without any licensed
saloons, which resulted in the reformation Of
many drinking men. One mission alone
gathered in more than a hundred Of them,
looms were allowed to reopen. Now nine
tenths of them, il is said, rave succumbed TO
temptation, and gone back to their drinking
habits. The privileges of the saloons are be
ing enlarged and new ones are to be licensed.
The policy of the City Council seems TO be to
serve the saloon at the expense Of all other
interests. When it proposes TO extend the
time of closing the saloons from eleven
o'clock till twelve at night, il is at the same
time planning to restrict the privileges of
hackmen and increase their license fee.
Plainfield is an eminently Christian city, and
has the power TO prevent it, and yet IL al
lows the saloon to dominate. The RESPONSE
bility lies with Christian men.-The hide.

RaiIroading in the Himalayas.

"The magnificent scenery IL the Grand
Canon in Colorado is nothing when com
pared with the view from a railroad
coach when passing over the Himalaya
Mountains, " said Colonel Tanner, of Cal

other day. "The Bolon railway runs
over the Himalaya Mountains 1000 feet
above the sea level, winds in and out of
gorges and passes over bridges spanning
streams flowing 1000 feet below. The

ALCOHOL AS A BEVERAGE.

1t will be a shivering surprise tn the aver
lge reader to know that Of late alcohol, pure
and simple, has become a beverage in
America, especially in the West, North
west and in the coal regions of Pennsylvania.
Even in New York City the census returns
estimate fifteen barrels a day as the allow
ance for drinking purposes.
It is an innovation as startling as that OF
The opium habit when it came in. AS the
opium habit came through the Chinese, so
The alcohol habit has come through the
Poles, Norwegians, Swedes, Firms, Hun
garians and Russians.
The eagerness with which any such evil
Dr. actice becomes ''all the rage among
drinking people may be seen from the fact
that, although recently introduced and at
irst INDUCED in quickly, alcohol is o sold
over the bar in the lower-grade bar-rooms.
One-half of the liquor sold for drinking
purposes in the Northwest is alcohol. This is

cause alarm, even among those who are

The Deer Frightener.

During the harvest times the stag and
bucks in the forests of France, attracted
by the smell of the cereals and the vege-
tables IN the fields, come out of their re-
treats at night and roam about in quest
of food. The farmers, to protect their
crops, have given occupation to "the
6eer frightener," whose duties are to
alarm the animals and keep them away
from the fields.
The deer fnghtener has no very ardent
labor to perform. AS night closes in he
builds a large fire Of fagots, which is
furnished by the commune. Every hour
he leaves his fire and runs up and down
the road bowling and %gesticulating with
hands like a dancing dervish. For dis
traction he has visits from the mounted
gendarmes, or plays piquet with the
neighbors who happen along the way

Examples Of Long Life.

The recent death of George Bancroft
in his seventy-first year, and the con-
tinued prominence and activity of Won
Moltke in Germany at the age of ninety,
and Gladstone in Great Britain at the
age of eighty-one, recalls other examples
of long life. Lophocles was ninety years
old when he was summoned before the
board having control of the dramatic
performances at Athens on the charge
that his intellectual faculties had de-
cayed. His triumphant answer was the
reading there and then his just completed
and greatest tragedy, "Gdipus at Colo
nus"
An esteemed contemporary gives the
following list of nonogenarians and CEN
tenarians; lsecrates, the ''old man elo-
%quent," was ninety-six when he wrote his
celebrated "Panegyric" Grafton, and he
lived to be over 100. Gorgias, the
famous sophist, died at 10S. Hierony-
mus, the historian lived to be 104, with
out any loss of mental energy. Zenoph-
anes wrote his memorable elegy at ninety
two. Theophrastus composed his "Char-
~acters" at ninety-nine. Agathocles,
tyrant of Syracuse, kept a firm grasp on
on that city until he died at the age of
ninety. five.
Passing to the Romans, we find that
Juvenal died at 100; that, according to
Pliny, Lucia, the comic actress, acted on
the stage when a ~centenarian, and that
NJ. Valerian Corvus was in full possession
| of his faculties when he died in his one
hundredth year. Coming to relatively
modern times, we note that the pencil
fell from the hand of the immortal
Titan only when he was smitten by the
plague at the age of nearly 100; and that
no d"iminution of Michael Angeles i'm
aginative capacity was observable at the
age of ninety-five.

1Nrox1cAr1oY AMONG WOMEN.

Careful investigation Of the subjectb by DR..
Lucy H. Hall, a prominent temperance
worker, has convinced her that intemperance
is a%larmingly on the increase among the
women OF this country. This celebrated
physician, in a recent lecture at Cooper
Union, New York, gave some OF the results
of her researches upon the subject. Th
tendencies to depend upon stimulants, when
once INDUCED in, is doubtless more marked
among women than men. By reason of their
more delicate organism, they are subject to
q thousand ills that men are not, and upon
ascertaining that stimulants will bring the
desired relief, there Isl steady growth of the
appetite that soon reaches a point where the
will is subservient to the indulgence of de-
c~octions, and makes them mentally and
physically a wreck. Had DR.. Hall pursued
the investigation in another channel, doubt
less, she would nave ascertained that other
evils, involving great danger, in most in
stances prscede this alcoholic indulgence.
On every side are displayed tones and
sedatives, their alleged virtues portrayed in
a manner to attract attention, and in
duce indulgence to ascertain their effect.
Notwithstanding the views expressed by Dr..
Hall, specialists assert that the general health
of women has improved, and that the gentler
sex is deteriorating is not n upon fact.
Education should be in the direction OF the
avoidance of stimulants and strict attention
