edges of the skin on each side of
the scar are left ragged or granu-
lated, and the rind under the scar
is smooth, firm and white, and has
something of a CLASSY appearance,
the melon is ripe. But if the edges
of the scar are smooth, and the
thumb-nail has dug into the rind

DEAR SIR: Have you received the
report of the leprosy commission in
India, an octave volume of 450
pages If not, | will be very glad to
lend you my copy.
L received it by the China last Sun
day. All my spare time have be-
1t is magnificent report, and eX-
presses my sincere, honest and earn
est opinion on the subject.
My opinion has never changed. For
twenty years or more that [ have
been in the country, and made q thor
Ough study of the disease, my conclu-
siOns have been the same as those
arrived at by the commission of the
national leprosy fund.
As in any case l am respectful of
the law, and of authority, helped, to
this date, the carrying out of the law
of segregation. In doing so, [ was
prompted by a feeling of modesty,
and hardly felt justified in opposing a
measure enforced by men, probably
better than /.
My researches with Aiming, Lutz,
my correspondence with my own
countrymen, Unna, Neisser, in
Germany; aud the Norwegian ply
sicians, and at last this remark
able report compel me to abide
by my strong convictions. More
over, at a great expense, [ have
lately started Il new treatment of tu-
berculosis Consumption, and leprosy,
treatment in which | have, Alright or
wrong, some faith. This, with the
suspected lepers at large, will try at
my own cost of time and money, and
communicate results to you if any. OF
course it IS not a secret treatment and
will be at any time exposed to you if
you desire ii.
OF late l have cOrresponded with
the best authorities on the subject,
have procured some valuable remedies
and have already began experiments
with such lepers, suspects, as are al
lowed at large.
Sufficient to say, that l am a non
contagionist and therefore can see no
advantages in segregation. I admit
with the conclusions of the report,
that leprosy is communicable from

The Khedive Opposed to English

LONDON, July IA Constanti-
nople correspondent Of the Times
telegraphs: The khedive visited
Ismail Pasha today and he intends
to call on foreign ambassadors.
His visit is beginning to embarrass
the government. It is feared that
he will insist that the sultan shall
take anti-English measures in
Egypt, and will threaten to abdi-
cate if the sultan refuses. The re-
port that a contingent of Egyptian
notables is coming here creates
alarm lest the popular demonstra
ton be increased.
