BACTERIA OF THE MOUTH.

One Preventive to the E ter!nE of Disease
Germs to the system.
1t has long been known that warmth
and moisture favor the development
and growth of microbes. The mouth
furnishes these conditions to peculiar
degree.
All germs that float in the air are
liable to find lodgmcnt in the mouth
and nose Here they mny remain, and
as most of them are not harmful under
any circumstances, they give no indica-
ton of their presence; and even when
noxious germs are thus lodged in the
mouth they may produce no symptoms.
If swallowed into the stomach the
juice there contained nay cause their
destruction and disorganiZation. Iffor
any reason their vitality is not thus de-
stroyed, they may be absorbed in the
system. 1t is possible that even then
they may be destroyed or excret4d, and
give rise to no disease. 1t is after their
entrance into the system, however, that
their presence is apt to be manifest.
The danger of their entering the svs-
tenn, it should be made clear, is in
creased when the mucous membrane of
the digestive tract is broken at any
point. When the skin or mucous men,
brance of any part of the body is
broken, one is perhaps considerably
more liable to absorb germs of all sorts.
At recent session of the Academy of
Medicine of Paris, M. Vallin, in con-
sidering the treatment of influenza,
recommended as preventative measure
of the greatest Importance, antiseptic
cleaning of the mouth, nose and throat.
Many people now use, as part of their
| toilet Il spraying atolnizer containing
some harmless 'antiseptic" solution.
The practice is to be commended as
cleanly one, and in addition it has
considerable germ-killing power.
Under some circumstances frequent
spraying of the throat and nostrils with
such an apparatus might well be the
means of preventing infection from
disease like influenza and diptheria
1t is unnecessary to say that brush
ing the teeth is an excellent mode of
rendering the mouth antiseptic, and
that as decaying teeth furnish excel
lent lurking-places for germs, they
should be promptly attended to.
A physician gives it as his belief,
based upon repeated observations, that
q solution of borax and salt in water
used to lave the mouth and tonsils will
sometimes prevent children in house
infected with diphtheria from contract
ing the disease. -Youth's Companion.

In a museum of curiosities at Salem,
Mass, there is preserved common
cherry seed or stone, followed and fash
ioned like basket Within the basket
are twelve tiny silver spoons, the shape
aud finish of which cannot be distin-
guished with the naked eye. DR.. Peter
Oliver, who lived in England during
the early part of the eighteenth CEN
tury, tells of seeing carved cherry
stone which would be wonder even in
this age of fine tools and fine workman
ship. The stone was one from COM
mon cherry and upon itwere carved the
heads of 124 popss, kings, queens, EN-
perors, saints, etc. Small as they must
necessarily have been, it is announced
on the authority of Prof. Oliver that
with good glass the heads of the popes
and kings could readily be disting dished
from those of the queens ana saints by
their miters and crowns. The gentle
man VINO brought this little wonder to

A SOUTHERN FORCE BILL.

A convention of eight hundred white
democrats in Alabama has declared
that it will force free election and a
fair count in that State at the Novem
Der election at all hazards. This is
a new development in the politics of
that region, and a startling one to the
democracy, So long as black votes
and the republican party were to be
kept in subsection by unfair elections,
all democrats seemed to be united.
But when Col. Kolb and his friends
were defrauded of their victory the
light. A convention for conference
developed the exact facts for all the
counties. 1t was the old story of
force at the polls, and the stealing or
destruction of ballot-boxes afterward.
The only difference was that this time
white democrats, who had presumed
to act independently, suffered at the
hands of the regulars. The conference
reused the assembly to fury. AS one
after another of the delegates rose
and related the outrages at the polls
there was universal denunciation of
the frauds perpetrated, and pledge
given, each to the other, that nothing
of the kind would be tolerated at the
coming election, if there had to be
fighting to maintain their rights and
the purity of the ballot. The great
audience went SO far as to furiously
cheer the suggestion that their courses
might deprive the regular democracy
of the electoral vote of Alabama AS
these men nominated no electoral
ticket, and adopted as their platform,
Anything to beat the regular dem
ocracy,n the situation in that State
seems to be something much more
than squally for the Cleveland men.

WHATH PROHIBITS.

The language of the Democratic
party in it's platform is: eve recon-
mend that the prohibitory 10 per cent.
tax on state bank issues be repealed y
The wording of this sentence should
be carefully noted; it is the "prohibi-
tory" tax which they wish repealed.
This means that the tax which was
imposed for the purpose of prohibit
ing the springing up of irresponsible
and fraudulent banks, as viewed from
their standpoint, should be taken off.
Only thirty odd years ago there was
no national tax, and state banks were
created, by those who wished, by an
issuance of paper money which had
no value away from the banks issuing
it, and which was discounted from
to 25 and even so per cent. This
meant constantly depreciating cur
rency, for the bill accepted to-day by
the workingman for his labor might
tomorrow be further discounted when
he used it for buying the necesi-
ties of life. Banks conspired to pay
out such currency and to not accept
it. The result of this action was that
the depreciation fell upon the work
ing man and ordinary citizens to bear.
1t was such conditions at these which
caused the imposition of the state tax,
the result of which has been the ma
tionalizing of the currency SO that
the bank note issued by a bank in
Maine is redeemable at any other
bank throughout the whole United
States; yet, even in foreign countries
a dollar means one hundred cents
when it is the currency of the United
States. The 10 per cent. tax upon the
issue of state banks prohibited the
no torious wildcat banking and gave
us a currency which is sound and
worthy of the country. It prohibited
the creation of fraudulent banks to
prey upon the laboring classes and
caused the currency which they re-
ceived for their labor, to be exchang
ed for it's face value in the necessi
ties of life. Now, working nan, do
you wish to repeal that "prohibitory"
tax which has increased the purchas
ing power of your wages? Do you
wish that national power of the stat
es shall be exercised over everything
but the currency? This is what the
election of the Democratic ticket
means, and the party dares not advo
cate it openly.

ALFRED TENNYSON.

England's great poet, her laureate
for more than forty years, is dead. 1t
is not extravagant eulogy to say that
he leaves upon the earth no one so
great in the realm of poetry. In Ten
nyson there were united a poetical
nature and a training in the art OF
versitication that well nigh touched
perfection. His verse is musical, har-
monious, soulful; it's rhythm and It's
thought blend as mervelously as the
colors on the canvas of a Titan. From
low, sweet song, he rises at times like
magic to sublime, heroic heights. His
notes are clear, his ear is true, his
heart is right. His best poems are all
that art could wish, or nature crave
If in all that Tennyson has written
in fifty years there may occasionally
be detected an inferior production, a
poem Of forced artifcially or common
place thought, some weak imitation
of former masterpiece, let it be re-
membered that it is neither necessary
nor possible for a great man to be

course of long lifetime. A poet, es-
pecially, should be taken at his best,
and when this is done Tennyson stands
the equal, if not the superior, of all
his contemporaries. Wordsworth
preceded him as laureate, but does
not excel him in genins. Whoever
shall be called to succeed Tennyson
must be lesser than he.
The laureate's end, like his life,
was poetical. Bathed in moonlight.
he peacefully passed out of world,
whose beauty he fully appreciated,
into rest which cannot be deemed un-
timely. His life was long and his work
accomplished. There was nothing to
be added to his glory. In fact, moth
ing had been added to it for twenty
years or more. The queen not long
ago graciously bestowed upon him a
bauble which she had at her disposal,
and which he will bequeath to his
son, who may need it, but it added
nothing TO the greatness of the poet
Tennyson. That had already reached
its apex and could not be added to by
any title within the gift of any earth
ly monarch.

everyone of his small opportunities.
But we shall certainly be so limit
ing him if we make one iota less prof.
table the keeping of sheep, and no
one will deny but that this bill will
surely have that effect. Besides de-
priving him of the profitable use of
hundreds of millions of acres of land
practically valueless for any other
purpose, it would, the moment the
bill had the Executive approval

keeping up her strength, is now taken

of refreshed. The cough which has
distressed her at intervals has ceased,
but this is regarded as an unfavorable
symptom. The disease is progress
