The Barefoot Cure.

The barefoot cure is evidently the coming craze in panaceas, says the Pitts burgh Dispatch. We have had the rest cure, the athletic cure, the Delsarte cure, the faith cure, ct al., and now the barefoot cure. Returning travellers from Germany and Austria are bringing the idea over with them, and as 1t is vastly less harmful than the cholera bacili, which they might have brought, it is as we'll to be lenient with the lesser folly. The barefoot treatment is a phase of more than one process of cure. Under one authority it is carried on on a sunny beach, and the patients race through the hot sands bareheaded, barearnoSl, and with legs and feet bare to the knees. This is to give the sun and heat, with their rhealth-giving prop critics, free access to the skin. Accord ing to another curist, to coin a word, it is part of the hardening course, and though you begin walking barefooted over smooth turf, you advance by run ming through wet meadows, and, later, meadows heavy with boar frost, to the climax of being able to endure tramp ing in cold water. As most of the cures effected at present have outlived their novelty, at least we may expect to find this brand-new barefoot cure eagerly seized upon.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1892-10-27

AN INSULT TO IRISH AMERICANS.
 Richard Croker has made the best answer to Mir Blaines bid for Irish votes.
 He says that the issue is on tariff re- form, and nothing Mir Blaine can say will change the issue or change vote.
 Again he says: "The people have got the issue in nutshell, and it is whether ninety per cent of the people will con- tinue to support and enrich at their own loss the remaining ten per cent"
 And this is what he says directly of the appeal to the "Irish vote."
 ''Mr Blaine's appeal to Minister Egan and Irish-Americans was merely a transparent bid for the Irish vote. But the Irish people who have made their homes here and become citizens are too intelligent to be influenced by any such clap-trap. Irish-Americans who have to make their living here and raise their families are not, if they can help it, going to continue paying exorbitant prices for necessary articles, simply to gratify spite"
 There was never a grosser insult offered to the Irish voters or to the American republic than the request to the former to exercise their rights as citizens of the United States for the purpose of expressing their anger against Great Britain. As MT Croker points out, they vote here with their minds and not with their passions.
