EA-SonSressluan Long OF IasSacnusettS is 70
be heard from in novel way in this campaign.
He is the editor of campaign book called 1.-The
Republican Party; Its History, Principles and
Policies which ia Just being put upon the mar
ket by the NJ. W. Hazen Companyof this city.
lie is in good company, too. for the men who
have prepared chapters for this book of nearly
400 pages are bold Ben Butterworth, the sharp.
tongued and picturesque Ingalls,, Gov. McKin-
ley. Congressman Burrows, Henry Cabot Lodge
Congressman Dirgiey, Pension Commissioner
Raum, Senator Hawley. ex-Iieprescntative Pay
ron, ex-Clerk OF the House Mcpherson and
others Of prominence.
PLArr AND TAMMANY HALL.
All eyes are now on Senator Plat on the one
side and the Tammany people on the other
What will they do? That is more easily asked
than answered though the members of the re-
publican national committee do not seem to
have any doubt about Senator Plat. / asked
Mr. kerens, one of the brightest and most
active Of the members OF the committee, what
he thought about it.
What do l think about Senator Platt5'' he
asked in a tone of surprise. II think he is o
republican. That ought to be answer enough
to that question"
Then you evidently expect him to take hold
and cooperate in the canpsign?"
Certainly do. Why not? Has there ever
been any occasion to doubt Mr.. Platt's repub-
licanism or his loyalty to the party? Do you
suppose he is any less q republican than Gen.
Clarkson or ex-senator Miller r ex-Secretary
Blaine or any of the others who we're identified
with events which are now being 60 much talked
abort9 Isn't Gen. Clarkson hard at work ever '
dsy for the success OF the party? Didn't Mr..
Blaine urge every republican to do his full
duty soon as the nomination Of President
Harrison was made? Isn't ex-senator Miller
cooperating heartily and cordially in behalf Of
republican success? l am tired OF hearing
these doubts about Mr.. Platt's party loyalty.
His republicanism ia too well known to make il
necessary for him to lie awake these hot nights
and stir himself these hot days to convince peo-
pie OF his willingness to support the nominee OF
his party"
And the talk about an open break between
the Tammany and anti-Tammsny people over
the question Of local nominations seems about
us unlikely. Mr.. Whitney, Who has charge Of
this question, Is no infant in politics, as was
shown by his work at Chicago, and b. il moi
likely to make mess Of it now. s. A.

wash Fruit Before Eating It.

The following curious instance is re-
ported by N. Schnirer Of the ease with
which consumption germs may be dis
seminated. While at work one day in
the laboratory of Weichselbaum, he
sent for some grapes to eat. The fruit
had been kept for some time in a basket
outside the lavatory and was covered
with dust, so hat the water in which it
was washed was black. On examining
it he reflected that, inasmuch as the
neighboring street was traversed by con-
sumptive patients going to the clinic.
the dust probably was charged with
tubercle bacilli. To settle this, M.
Schnirer injected into three guinea pigs
ten cubic centimeters of water in which
the grapes had been washed. One ami
NAL died in two days from p~eritonitis,
the two others died on the forty-eighth
and fifty-eighth days, respectively; pre-
senting marked tuberculous LESSONS,
especially at the place of injection.
The water in which the grapes had
been washed was taken from the faucet
and the glass containing it had beer
sterilized; neither the boy who had
bought the grapes, nor the merchant
who had sold them, was consumptive.
The cause of the infection was, beyond
doubt, the dust on the grapes. This ex.
pertinent illustrates the danger arising
from the dissemination of ~desiccated
tuberculous sputa in the air.-Hall's
Journal of Health.

A sor. OF plritaI repression.

Did you ever notice when a ma
smites his thumb with a hammer while
putting down . carpet under wifely
supervision and criticism how quickly
he thrusts the bruised and throbbing
member into his ready mouth? People
think it is because the application is
soothing. But no; IL is an involuntary
movement, same as winking. The man
cannot help it Nature knows what the
man would be- apt to say under the cir
-~cumstances, and 90 abe has provided
him with stopper and has ordained
that whenever he hits his thumb hard
enough to hurt-and it doesn't take very
much to nearly kill q man when he is
doing something he doesn't want toby
