sequeIs of Measles.

1t is not generally believed that injury
to the sight and hearing is the danger
most to be guarded against in cases of
measles? Yet as much to be feared as
either of these is disease Of the lungs,
as more or less bronchitis exists I'm near
ly all cases OF measles. This danger is
an additional reason why every precau-
ton should be taken to keep the patient
from catching cold. A doctor very sue
cessful in his treatment of children's
diseases often prescr1bes a long course of
cod liver oil for weakly children after a
severe attack of measles. He also ad-
vises parents while exercising great care
not TO carry their watchfulness and care
so far that they make dollhouse plants
of their children" In order to avoid an
other serious turn that the disease some
times takes. that of diarrhea, the diet
must be carefully watched during con-
valescence and the watch against cold
cOntinued.-N Y. Post.

The Courtship of Lord Burton.

In Lady Burton's life of her husband
Burton's cOurtship of his wife is very
prettily told 1t was one Of signs and
portents and of much opposition on the
part OF her family, who thought he was
not her equal in social position. and who
in any case objected to his supposed
want of faith. But the lady had made
up her mind. II was in some sort Othel-
los courtship-she loved him for the
dangers he had passed and he loved her
that she did pity them. At length the
lady wrote a decisive letter to her moth
er: He is the only being who awes me
into respect, and any evil opinions you
may have heard Of him arise from his
recklessly setting at defiance conven-
tional people. talking nonsense about re-
ligion and heart and principle. which
those who do not know him unfortun-
ately take seriously, and he amuses him
self with watching their stupid faces.
"Once he is married to me he will be
the faVortte Of our family. and you will
all be proud Of him and have implicit
confidence in him. And let me tell you
another thing-yOu and my father are
immensely proud Of your families. but

upon dark. narrow. lifeless court. or
perhaps fiat against blank brick wall
a few feet away. Now remember that
the average girl has no mental resources
such as people of liberal education en-
joy. She cannot sit down and read alb
sorbing books or otherwise employ her
leisure moments. She cannot see any
thing on the street. She can't hear any,
thing going on in the house. To all in
tents and purposes she Is in the
penitentiary; for she has a cell and hard
work only as alternatives.
1T is cell and hard work, hard work
and cell-solitary confinement In some
families, for some mistresses talk very
little to their servant and say less be-
fore her. The girl has the relief OF her
day out. but If she is in the habit of
associating with other Servants the
weekly comparison OF notes is apt to
make her still more unhappy when she
returns to her lonely cell on Sunday
night. She can scarcely be seriously
blamed IL she wants a change. The
kindness of the mistress the comparative
easy work. the fair wages. often fail to
balance the dreadful loneliness and
other misery of such an existence. IN.

80 Hou.e hy the Medlnr Tree.v

A book of this title. translated into
English from the German. has led TO the
frequent inquiry: What is a medlar
tree?" This inquiry is answered as fol-
lows In Meehan's Monthly: 1T is a
common graden fruit in northern Ger
many, the Mespilus germanica Of
botanists. IL belongs TO the same family
as the apple. pear and cherry. but does
not thrive we'll except in rather northern
regions. AS is the case with our per-
simmon. the fruit is too austere until
decay has partially set in. The word
decay is not an acceptable one. so the
French term, 'blette' Is used. A bletted
medlar is fit for use. The Japan plum
of the South is very close to the medlar.
1t is known as Mespilus japonica."

a p%erceptible increase of hopeful antci-
patton round the Senate this
morning that the repeated conferences

Senate deadlock and permitting action
of some kin to be taken on the pend

When the Senate Committee and Mr.

may be evolved which will command
sufficient support to secure its passage.
