Per,odates as a Cure for Cholera.

The experiments now being made with
crystals of periodate and periodate of
iron for the treatment of cholera cases
in the barracks of Hamburg have re-
suited in a remarkable falling off in the
death rate at those barracks as compared
with other hospitals in that city. DR..
Weaver, who was the first to use the
periodates, claims that this method is
simply an application of the principles
OF sanitation to the body, and that it is
at once preventive and curative as sys-
tenn of physical disinfection and cleans
Ing. The periodate appears to kill the
disease germs instantly, yet it is per-
fectly harmless to the human system,
even when introduced in large quanti-
ties.
The pertodate of iron has been used in
cases in which an unusually strong nerve
or heart stimulant has been deemed nee
essary, or for severe neuralgia symptoms.
The powdered crystals have been used to
disinfect the alimentary canal and as a
water solution to wash out the stomach
in cases of severe vomiting. They have
been employed also for transfusions un-
der the skin or into vein in order to re-
store suspended circulation of the blood.
In q case Of collapse the patient has been
given drafts of periodate sufficient to re-
store the pulse and cause the heart beats
to retufn.--London Times.

Abigail" said he, "how is this? I've
given you no money; you've long left off
asking for money. How have you man
aged to smarter yourself and the chill
dren up so? won't be cheated by my
own wife"
Elma sat down the pitcher which she
was wiping and came and stood before
her father with glittering eyes and cheeks
stained with crimson, like flag of battle.
Papa" she said, you must not speak
to mamma so. Mamma would not cheat
you nor nobody else. It's money we've
earned ourselves"
Mr.. Chesney stared at the girl with in
credulous eyes
"And if you don't believe it come and
see how" said Elma, ainging down her
towel. MARY Penn showed US. She
told us everything and gave US the first
swarm of bees. There are IA swarms
down there under the south wall. Spen-
Ger sold the honey for US. And we plant
ed all the nice flowers that grow down
in the meadow that you said was too
stony and barren for the sheep to pasture
upon, and Will dug and hoed around
them after all the chores were done, and
we sent boxes ald bouquets of lilies and
verbenas to the city every day by Mr..
Penn's wagon. And we gathered wild
Strawberries before the sun was up and
got cherries out of the old lane. And the
money is ours-every cent of it"
"Honey, eh?" said Mr.. Chesney, star
ing at the row of hives, for Elma had
dragged him out into the November
moonlight to the scene of action. ''Well,
I've seen these many time, but always
s'posed they belonged to Squire Penn's
folks. And flowers and wild berriesl
Didn't think there was so much money
in 'em. Guess I'll try the business my
self next year. Queer that the women
folks should havegot the start of me-"
After that be regarded his family with
more respect. The mere fact that they
could earn money had elevated them i'm
mensely in his sight.
But when spring came he lost his able
coadjutor. Miss Elma incidentally an
nounced to him one day that she was GO
ing to be married to Walter Penn the
next week.
"And mamma is coming to live with
u.s." added Elma. ''She can't stand the
damp house and this hard work any
longer"
But Mrs. Chesney did not go to the
Penn farm. Mr.. Chesney hired stout
serving maid and laid drain pipes under
the kitchen stoop. If his wife really
understood her business SO well, it was
worth while to keep her well and active,
he considered.
81 couldn't leave papa, you know"
said Mrs. Chesney to Elma. He means
well, and now that Rebecca Beckel is
coming here and the kitchen is dry we
shall get along nicely. l wouldn't go
back to the city for anything now"
Nor / either" said Elma. And, oh,
l shall always love those bee
hives under the hollyhocks, for it was
there that Walter asked me to be his
wife"
Mrs. Shesney tearfully kissed her
daughter. She, too, had been happy once
and had her dreams. 1t was to be hoped
that Walter Penn was made of different
metal from George Chesney.

Getting MONEY to Go shoppinr.

A well known artist, whose studio is
In New York, but whose home is in a
pleasant village an hours ride from the
metropolis, promised faithfully one
morning that he would do some shopping
for his wife. On arriving at his studio
he found that he had money enough in
his pocket for his lunch and no more.
What to do about the shopping? Sud-
denly he bethought himself of an order
for an illustration that he had received
from magazine. He set to work, and
in less than two hours had finished the
drawing, collected $50 for it at the pub

The Yost
WRITING MACHINE,

Years ago, Mrs. YoSt built a type-
writer, the Remington No. , and
Caligraph which were good enough
then. But the family has increased
by thousands. Other folks have
hltched on extensions to hold 'em.
But it's the same old typewriter,
same ribbon, same scales, same
rlckety print. We want something
modern, and We get it in the New
YosT, which Uses superior to the
difficulties of any ribbon machine.
The ribbon blurs print, wears full
OF holes, clogs type, takes power to
pull 1t along, weakens manifoldipg
and costs IS or $40 a year. Our
ink pad outlasts twenty ribbons.
Can be changed in ten seconds. and
costs less than So year. And as

Is the only machine which accom-
plishes this much desired feat.

Oh These Times, These Men.

Mr. EDIToR.-In looking over
some files of papers the other day
came across several Democratic pa
pers. They were issued in Sept. and
Oct. 1892. In all of them was this
paragraph. ''Grover Clevelrnd is
the Democratic platform!' In his
recent message to Congress he re-as-
serts that statement that he is the
platform and virtually sets aside the
Chicago platform. He was told
that he was the Democratic platform
so often and SO persistently that 1t
is probable he became convinced that
such is really the fact. But when
he acts as though the Democratic
and papers of kindred faith were
correct in their campaign assertions,
we hear a howl from the same pa
pers from Dan to Beersheba. The
item recalled to my mind the recent
utterance of j, j. Ingalls, of Kansas:
''That the Democratic party is con-
sistent only in being inconsistent"
| have been watching closely for
years the so-called Great Democratic
party, and l am forced to exclaim
while reviewing its past history,
consistency! oh! consistency thou
jewel! where hast thou flown!
