and also evidence of improvement at the
site of the disease have followed the use
of this remedy. The general improve
ment manifests itself by a gain in
weight, lessening in fever, increased ap-
petite, better sleep. The local improve
ment is surmised from certain changes
to be observed by auscultation and per
cussion, together with a diminution in
the severity of the cough and in the
amount of the expectoration, and also a
diminution in the number of the bacilli
in the expectoration or their complete
disappearance from it.
This has not always been the case. In
not few instances no improvement has
resulted, and in other cases direct and
most damaging results, including hem
orrhage and even death, have been
brought about by it. In the treatment
of tuberculosis of the bones and Joints
results seem to have been widely differ
ent. 1t is certain that some cases have
been benefited, and equally certain that
others have not. = Popular Science

INTO drug store about dusk on a chilly
evening and asked the proprietor for a
good, mild cigar. After paying for ii
he added:
SIS there any place around your store
where can have quiet smoke? Our
bishop has just been preaching pretty
sharply against the use of tobacco, so |
don't want to smoke round the house
where L am staying, nor out in the
street, on account of the bad example I
might set. But mild cigar does rest
one sop
The druggist quite agreed with him
and said:
'Step behind my prescription counter,
sir; you will be unseen there"
Two minutes later another good min
lister came into the store, bought a mild
cigar and asked if he might be permit
ted to smoke in the store, because:
"Our bishop has just been preaching
against smoking" he explained, almost
In the exact words of his predecessor.

"Some years ago produced at Wallack's
theater, in New York, a play called Mar
rage which l honestly considered one of
the very best things / had ever read. I
was charmed with it. Everybody said it
was sure to be success. The first night
we had wretched house, but the next
morning the press notices were most COM
ELEMENTARY, and my hopes rose The people
never came, and the play was failure.
Later produced what 1 thought a great
play, called Rescued in Booths new the
alter. With all the surroundings of a beau
tlful new house the opening night was
failure. The piece was well put on and
well acted, and the newspapers spoke of it
N the highest terms of praise. But the
people wouldn't come to see it.
In London, thinking again of Mar
rage made up my mind that such
great play could not be doomed to eternal
failure. Iproduced it in the Haymarket
theater, under the title of THE Bride
John S. Clarke predicted great future
tor it. Boucicault said that the first act
alone would achieve certain triumph for
it. That is what l thought. The people
didn't come the first night, and they did
not come at all. 1t was CHASTITY failure.
Down in Baltimore 1 produced The Old
Stager.' The Associated Press, that for
years 1 had vainly tried to have telegraph
something about my openings, sent
throughout the country, at no suggestion
of mine, glowing notice of the first per-
Torrance. But the people were not there,
and they never got there.
MCKEE Rankin said it was great, and
agreed with him, but the people didn't.
Frank Mayo said it was bound to succeed.
No. it WON'T said, ANY more than your
"Nordeck" will What do you mean?'
he said. They are both great plays re-
piled, but the first nights were bad and
they can't succeed Notice the other side
of the question. In 1875, in New York,
produced The Almighty Dollar before a
crowded house. The newspapers the next
day agreed in saying that there was moth

fail. played it almost consecutively for

1t cannot yet be said that the exact
status of koch's remedy is fixed; nor can
we even yet say with certainty that this
much heralded cure is destined to sur
vlve among established methods at all
The most that is claimed for it by its
most ardent advocates is that it seems
capable of depriving the bacillus of the
material in which it thrives best. e.,
OF disintegrating and destroying tuber-
culous tissue. There has been no claim
that it has any direct effect upon the ex-
istence of the bacillus, nor that it, hay
ing deprived the bacillus of its food.
tends in any way to remove that parasite
from the body, and thus to eliminate the
possible source of danger of subsequent
or more general infection.
Under Its influence in some forms of
local tuberculosis-especially of the skin
it has been shown that tissue which
was of the very lowly organized variety
characteristic of the disease has been at
first in part and then wholly replaced
by tissue of higher organization, and
one that is likely to be permanent. In
regard to tuberculosis of the lungs,
there can be no question that improve
