what Lupua IN

Lupus vulgaris, Of which we are now
hearing so much, is an extremely chronic
disease of the skin, attacking persons
between the ages of two and fifteen. 1t
Is characterized by the appearance Of
reddish-brown nodules Of granulation
tissue upon the skin, usually Of the face.
The mucous membranes are rarely affect
ed. The nodules start in the corlum,
but penetrate the connective tissue be-
meath and the papillary layer above.
The disease spreads by the formation of
fresh nodules at the periphery OF the
original lesion. New centres form and
the old ones may gradually disappear. II
the tissue breaks down au open sore is
found, covered with yellowish and
brownish crusts. Unlike ordinary tuber-
Gle, the lupus nodules are rather vascu-
lar, Tubercle bacilli are found in the
tissue, but they are very i~nfrequent, and
often many examinations are required to
detect them. incubation Of lupus
nodules will It is asserted, cause tuber-
culosis in rabbits and guinea pigs; but
incubation of the skin with tubercle will
not produce lupus. For this and other
reasons SO distinguished an authority as
Eaposi denies that lupus Is a c~utaneous

positively by Koch and his pupils.

A Criminal Family.

Some months ago there were two
prisoners, husband and wife, charged
with crime. Mr.. Wheatley, Secretary
of the st. Giles Mission, learned that
they had a large family of children, and
these he made il his business to dis
cover. There were six of them-one, a
baby at the breast, was with the mother;
the other five were huddled together in a
small room in Paddington. A little in
curry revealed an appalling state of
things. The mother was sentenced to
eighteen months Imprisonment, the
father, being an old offender, received a
long term of penal servitude. The
grandfather was doing penal servitude,
the grandmother was in prison, an uncle
was awaiting his trial in a provincial
town, while the auEt had a warrant out
against her. Thus, the whole family
group were in the grasp of the law.
Proper steps were, however, taken, and
the five little ones secured; one, a boy,
was placed in a school; another boy was
sent TO the country, where he is in wise
hands; the other three-girls, aged, re-
speetivsly, two, four and six-were put
ito one of the soeIety's homes, and have
since been transferred 70 a home at the

OBJECTIONS TO OPEN

Open bitches should only be made
where absolutely necessary. The reason
is obvious; a tile drain will generally
cost but little if any more than a I properly
constructed open ditch with sufficiently
sloping banks. Fields can be cultivated,
hauling done in less time and with less
inconvenience, beside the additional
ground to cultivate, which would be
waste land if the ditch were left open.
There is Q constant demand for the deem
ening and widening of bitches, and this
demand will continue until their bottoms
are sunk low enough not to obstruct the
discharge Of the tile drains. The bottom
of an open ditch should be at least two
feet below the necessary depth of tile
drains, to prevent the tile from being
filed up and INSTRUCTED by the ever-ac-
cumulating sediment in the bottom.
Probably the best way to treat this de-
post of sediment would be to make bank
slopes not to exceed two to one, or still
fatter, which will greatly reduce the
cost of cleaning out the ditch and keep
ing it in repair, by blowing and scrap
ing out the deposit and spreading it on
the adjacent land. The above is from

about to be conducted to prison when a man,
having the appearance of q Woodworking
mechanic and accompanied by a pretty little

his voice, she hid her face in her hands and

she would go to prison, and it was not until
