IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED.

The members of the Puritan Congre-
gational church of Providence have
surprised their friends in the streuu.
Gus efforts they have made to erect the
commodious house Of worship now oc-
cupied by them. The vast majority Of
the church are young Cambro-Am
cans, and filed with the push and pluck
characteristic of our people, they are re.
solved not to flag In their efforts until
the main entrance to the church will
be properly fixed. The expense Of
building retaining wall and placing
stone steps into position will amount
to hundreds Of dollars. In order to se-
cure funds they will hold a fair and
festival in the fall. Tickets for the
same were issued this week, which
have been we'll received by the public.
1t will be necessary also, before tho
winter sets in, to put in the church a
heating apparatus, which is another
object for which the young people are
working. Their enthusiasm and earn
estness desire success. and we hope
their efforts will be properly rewarded.

HEALTH FOR THE MILLIONS:

HEALTH FOR THE MILLIONS:
To relieve Il sty take every six hours
one-twelfth grain of sulphide of cal
cium.
Often a jaded appetite may be re-
vived without i'll result by taking
five drops of diluted hydrochloric
acid in a half glass of water before
meals.
Bathing the nose twice day with
hot water and sulphur soap will
eventually remove the yellow "flesh
worms" that often collect in the pores
of the nose.
AS cure for erysipelas in the lower
eXtremities take through a glass tube,
every four hours twenty drops of the
tincture of chloride of iron in tum-
bier half full of cold water.
DR.. Antal, Hungarian chemist, has
discovered a new chemical compound,
the nitrate of cobalt, which, he says,
is n most etlicacious antidote to poison
ing by cyanide of potassium or prussic
acid.
Acknowledgment It's due to the Phila-
delphia Records superior "Health and
Hygiene" department on Sundays for
many Of the suggestions and remedies
noted in this column of the SATURDAY
TRIBUNE.
Itching of the feet may often be re-
lieved in one week by bathing the
affected parts in water hot as can be
borne. Dry, then wet old linen and
muslin with phenol sodique and ap-
ply, night and morning. Wear un-
bleached socks throughout the year.
The old notion that water must be
prohibited in the case Of raging fevers
has in most instances been abandoned
by the medical profession. Cracked
ice applied to the patients parched
tongue is preferable to the water itself,
but when the latter has been distilled
and cooled it will oftener do good than
harm,
Milady's hands may be kept white
and soft if she will remember to use
lemon juice every time she washes
them. Wear gloves on the street, and
upon going to bed thoroughly rub into
the hands the following mixture:
Tincture Of benzoin, one ounce; gly-
cerine, one ounce; water, one ounce,
Sleep with old, loose kid gloves Oh the
hands.
To remove fullness from beneath the
eyes take twenty drops of the tincture
Of the chloride of iron in half glass of
water after meals take through a glass
tubel for eight weeks. Between meals
and when retiring at night, take five
drops of the tincture of digitalis in a
wineglass full Of water, for three
weeks; discontinue for one week and go
on for three more weeks.
Do not read while riding on railway
trains. Give the eyes a rest. This
common practice of reading on the
cars is. most trying on those delicate
muscles that regulate the shape of the
eyes lenses and so affect the focaliza-
ton of the organ. The danger is great
est, of course, on those railroads whose
ballasting is imperfect and whose rails
are roughly laid, producing much jar
ring and consequent rapid changing of
the distance between the eye and the
paper. That "abominable headache"
common to travellers is many times
due to nothing else than this strain on
the muscles and nerves of the eve.

The composing room towel has been
for years favorite theme for satirical
allusion among those familiar with its
granolithic properties; but there are to
be seen in more than one Scranton

the small snatches of bedraggled linen

emergencies, a spare handkerchief. The
statistics of disease propagation un-
doubtedly owe much to this forgetful-
