SIR HENRY THOMPSON, the noted Lon
don physician, says that more than one-half
of the diseases of modern life are caused by
easily avoidable errors in diet
1t is well known that the drunkard brings
his ruin upon himself; but it is startling TO
be told in effect by SO able physician that,
but for our ignorance, it is as much sin 10
be i'll as to be drunk.
The proprietors of Garfield Tea have
been doing missionary work in this field.
They include with each of the millions of
free samples they yearly distribute, valuable
medical essays on the use of hot water as a
remedy and of diet in disease and with
each package of Tea booklet worth its
weight in gold, written by well-known by.
gienic physician, residing in New York and
London, and graduate of the New York
University Medical College, pointing out a
few simple rules whereby all persons OF or
binary intelligence are able to conduct an
attack of illness without calling doctor
showing how to get well and keep well, and
how so to live that no one need long use
Garfield Tea or any other medicine. I'm
til then, Garfield Tea helps overcome the
evils of bad diet and over-eating.
This booklet also gives the DIR. Salisbury
treatment of chopped meat and hot water !;
also the secret of the success OF the milk cure
and the grape cure in Europe.
And also, why the great success attending
treatment at Carlsbad and other famous
health springs and shows how anyone may
substantially get all the good results that
come from such health resorts at home, by
following the rules plainly set out in the
little book.
Why are physicians so much opposed to
proprietary medicines? Is it because such
meritorious articles as Ponds Extract or
Garfield Tea become household necessities
and enable people to do their own doctoring
and so keep money out of the pockets of
physicians.

The Progressive Farmer a Third Par.
Organ.
WASHINGTON, June 2.-President
Polk, of the Alliance, has decided
shat if his paper, (The Progressive
Farmer) of North Carolina, cannot
serve both the Alliance and the
Third party, it will serve the Third
party.
This paper is the official organ of
the North Carolina Alliance. For
some time it has contained too much
Third party doctrine to suit the nom
partisan Alliancemen. Representa-
tive Alexander, chairman of the
State Alliance executive committee,
officially protested against the pa
per's course, whereupon Pres. Polk
resigned for The Progressive Farmer,
the official organship of the Alliance.
This makes Folks paper straight
advocate of the Third party and is a
nice bid for the presidential nomina-
tion. The chances are what he will
get the nomination and that Mr..
Weaver or some other westerner will
get the second place.

The Greenville Reflector of June
LIST, Col Harry SINNERS town paper,
doubtless voicing the sentiment of that
community, heads its editorial column
with the sing lie line-"The Colonel is
still Silent"
We had hoped to see in that paper
a letter from the Colonel similar to
the one he published in it recently;
but we suppose the Colonel deems it
inexpedient to say anything. In this
we are sure he is wrong. Assuming
that he realizes that he had been led
into an abominable position and that
he has been entangled in artful meshes,
the easier way out is to cut roughly
through and return to his former as
sociations. If our assumption is err
roneous, then to be sure there is no
need of saying word before return

A Contrast.
From the Durham Globe.


Minds differ. Hearts change. Men
and women die, but razor back hogs
still root and the wild ass brays. This
is logical proposition and We chal-
lenge contradiction. But what we
want to write is this. Henry Blount
is perhaps the most fowery writer in
the South. He weaves his thoughts
from loom of words which all of US
could use but he fashions his fabric
of thought in different style than
any other man. For instance, he calls
this a
HEART THROB.
We have been most fondly dream
ing toni ght of little maiden, who is
indeed an elegant and bewitching
poem of the most exquisite grace and
loveliness, and upon whose embracing
charms the heart floats in dreamiest
spells of fondest raptures. Changing
the metaphor, she is indeed a magniti-
cent little jewel, without blur or
blemish; and he, who wins her, will
have the regal wealth Of the grand
est earldom in his keeping, for she has
all the charms and all the noble vir-
tues and all the wooing graces that
give glory light to earth and an en-
chantment to existence for her pure
life the sweetest raptures give, and
mortals learn of her how Gods own
angels live.
Now, if we had been writing this,
we should have said it in an entirely
different way, Had the form of a
giggIing girl appeared before or yis>
ion, we should have written:
BUSTER
After swiping a half dozen hard
boiled eggs and going to bed with our
boots on about 2 o'clock this morning.
we dreamed of d small sized gal who
was indeed cross between a rocky
poem and COB of blank verse which
makes us tired "a parody, ungainly,
disjointed hunk of trilling and jam-up
grace and awkwardness. She was a
hummer, a whizzer "a hooking bird
with pin feathers and scrumptous
gallery of gew>gaws-sweeter than
wad of ginger bread, and thre.-ply
charmer from the backwoods. She
was as sound as dollar and not
blemish on her. She was neither
spring-halted, spawned, nor had she
tuberculosis. She was, briefly, cu.s,
and the pelican who whispers his red
hot words of love into her waxen ear,
will be three times winner He will
have his arms full, as she weighs about
800 pounds, and her one wooing grace
is that she goes barefooted and dips
snuff She is daisy, and don't you
forget it!

Believed That in Two Weeks the Plague
 Win be Virtually Extinct-Colombia and
 the Quarantine Against American
 Ports-Situation in New York Bay.
 HAMBURG, Sep. 24 - The weather re mains cool and damp. There is no dust, and the air is kept clear by strong winds. Should such favorable conditions continue for two weeks more, physicians say, the end of the period would find the plague virtually extinct for the fall and winter months.
 The number of fresh cases to- day has been 339, or 50 fewer than yesterday; the number of deaths IA, or 15 fewer than yesterday. The interments have num- bered 24l, or 50 less than yesterday. The hospitals contain 3, 593 patients, or 194 less than yesterday. The majority of the patients in the hospitals are now convales- cent.
 By next Monday, when the sudden dim mutton of fresh cases will begin to be apparent, the number of patients prob ably will have sunk to 1, 200 or 1,500, as hundreds will be discharged as cured within the next two days.
 The Board of Health has been author ized to destroy many houses in the sub urbs which havesuffered most from the plague. The houses named for destruc tion are tenements which have no ade- quate means of ventilation and have no sanitary conveniences. All of them have been occupied by laborers' families, whose members have died off like sheep during the plague.
 Seven houses in Barmbeck and three in Horn have lost two thirds of their oc- cupants through cholera in the last three weeks, and they are so thoroughly satu- rated with the disease that no disinfec tion, the Health Board say, could render them safe.
 After the disappearance of the disease many other tenement houses will be eX- amincd With a view to tearing them down. These measures are deemed neces- sary to insure the city immunity from a return of the epidemic next year.
 The precautions taken by the authorities are so oDtrusive to sight and smell as to throw a stranger into d hypochondriacal state. Violations of the sanitary regula- tions are punished by q fine if the offender is poor. and by imprrsonmeut if rich.
 The cholera will prove a boon to Ham burg and other large cities if it leads tc the better housing of the poor. Although they cannot be compared with Hamburg, the older parts of Berlin are deplorably
 
 gle building which is occupied by 25O tenants, mostly families.
 Thirty-six smaller dwellings open on onto one passage. The windows in these wretched structures are often stuffed with rags and papers instead of being supplied with glass. The average size of the room is 16 feet by 10. Some fami lies, in which there are five children, have only one bed. The condition ot these dwellings baffies description. They are full of dirt and vermin, and veritable hot beds of disease.
 In the country districts the state of af- fairs is often worse. Cases are on record of four families, consisting of 22 persons occupying a single small room, divided off into sections for the use of the differ ent families by chalk lines. All married servants on an estate are housed in ont room.
 The figures in Antwerp up to date ar, 1S9 cases and G3 deaths.
