PHOTOGRAPHY IN WAR.


Tho Advantages of Employing Pigeons
FOR Carrying Messages.
Considerable attention has been given
in recent years to the methods of carry
ing on communication between points
in time of siege. In a recent issue of
La Nature, French investigator
strongly recommends the use of carrier
pigeons for transmitting messages, and
gives a map of Europe with the project
ed stations for pigeon service marked.
During the siege of Paris the method Of
communication was carried on and a
distinct pigeon post was organized, the
letters, at the cost of ten cents a word,
being sent into the city with great de-
gree Of rapidity.
The letters which were limited to
twenty words, were set in type, and,
after d reduced photograph was made.
the film was removed from the glass
and inclosed in small quills, which
were then, attached to one OF the tail
feathers Of the bird. So complete was
the organization that many thousand
letters were sent in this way. There Is
no special skill required for this work
and any amateur photographer con
versant with the wet collodion process
could, with an ordinary camera ant
lens, reduce whole page Of newspa
per to such dimensions as would enabl,
it to be dispatched in the matter de
! scribed.

Found Dead IN a Cave.

John j. Goshorn, who is well
known in Winchester, having spent
considerable time there, and where
he was soon to have been married 10
Miss Bush, met IL tragic end in the
mountains near Bristol last month.
On Dec. 18th he wrote letters to his
mother and several friends stating
that he was going into the mountains
to hunt for silver After several
days had elapsed without news from
him his friends became alarmed. His
brother, j. w. Goshoru, Of Charles
ton, w. Va, was sent for. He went
to Bristol and organized searching
parties The mountains for forty
miles around were searched without
success. Last week, however, the
body of the missing man was found
in Bishops cave, six miles from Bris-
tol. On the side of the cave were
marks made by Goshorn i'll his search
for silver. 1t is supposed he got into
the cave, and his supply of candles

All About ia. GRIP.
The popular theory is that the grip
is of bacterial origin, caued by a
germ. The first real epidemic came
to America FROM ST Petersburg in six
weeks The germs float easily In the
air. and all who breath the tainted
atmosphere are victims to the disease.
Most physicians think tits mildly con-
tagious but persons suffering with the
epidemic are no great menace 10 9th
ers with whom they come in contact.
Deaths from grip are rare. 1t is gen
orally fatal only when the victim is
suffering from other serious ailments.
Pneumonia often follows in its wake.
Some physicians think pneumonia
germs are the same as grip germs.
Feeble and ailing persons are easy
victims while people in robust health
are not so susceptible. One OF the
preventives is to restrict the diet to
substances nourishing and easily di-
gestible: Exercise in pure air, such as
walking, is beneficial. Good ventila-
ton, frequent baths, warm feet, are
all good representatives.. There are
three kinds OF grip; neurotic, catarrh
al and gastric. In the first, the symp-
toms are nervous, and include severe
pains in the head, chest, back aud
limbs, with extreme nervousness, Of
ten delirium and great prostration.
In the catarrhal form the nasal pas
sages are infamed and the victim az
fected with sneezing, discharge from
the nose, sore throat, hoarseness.
coughs and tightness OF the chest.
This form resembles closely n hard
cold In the gastric form the symp-
toms are referable to the stomach.
There is nausea, and usually vomit
ing and symptoms OF billiousness.
An authority says, in severe cases no
one should attempt TO treat himself.
In mild cases take two pills, both at
once, each containing five grains OF
quinine. Go to bed and stay there
covered up with heavy blankets.
Take frequent draughts OF hot water
which will induce sweat. The fol-
lowing morning if a ''stutiiness' OF the
nose is experienced put one teaspoon
full of powdered camphor intoa pitch
erful of boiling water Over this place
a cone made OF thick paper. Hold
the nose or mouth TO the small open
ing. Breathe the vapor for five min
utes, and repeat every three or four
hours until relieved. II there is Il
tightness Of the chest apply mustard
plasters morning and evening. II a
cough mixture is needed, syrup OF
wild cherry bark is much better than
the many patent nostrums. AlchohoI-
ic stimulants, physicians state, are
not efficient preventives but render
the individual more liable 10 the dis
ease
