Only of recent years has science rec
ogniZed inebriety TO be veritable dis
ease. If the former conviction that in
ebriety was exclusively vice is an
error, equally erroneous is the belief Of
extreme reaction that inebriety is eX-
clusively disease. The Philadelphia
Medical and Surgical Reporter sensiDly
thinks that the truth lies between
these extremes. Inebriety Is at once
disease and vice, and appears as
either, according as the one or the
other characteristic may predominant.
1t may exist as q disease with the vi
cious element entirely wanting; as in
the case of an individual whose inher-
tied mental and physical tendencies
toward alcoholism are utterly out of
proportion to his personal power of re-
sistance when such tendencies have
been allowed single opportunity to
gain ascendency. In this phase ine-
briefly Is q morbid condition-dipso-
mania-and is characterized by the ir-
resistible obsession and impulse to
drink, recurring at periods during
which the victim abandons himself
absolutely to the Thirst for alcohol.
Between attacks the unfortunate pa
tient may be totally abstinent; may
appear perfectly rational, and may be
able to conduct all the ordinary affairs
of life without evincing any unsound-
ness Of mind. He may even make
most heroic but Intellectual effort to re.
sist the recurring impulse to drink.
Such one is undoubtedly diseased
rather than vicious. The dipsomaniac
invariably belongs to the degenerate
class which is characterized by the So
called psychopathic constitution. His
physical makeup is always imperfect
and his mental and moral balance is
never stable. On the other hand, ine-
briefly may be essentially vice, at
least in so far as it may have been ac-
quired and for some time continued as
vice. Thus an individual in whom
hereditary tendencies are not pro-
nounced, or are entirely wanting, may
| acquire the drink habit wilfully. In
ebriety begun as the vice, if continued,
invariably terminates as the disease.

The belief that unsound teeth be-
long only to a highly-civilized state Of
life seems to be u prevalent one. But
J. Howard Mummery informs us, in
Nature, that very different conclu.
sion was reached by his father, more
than twenty years ago, after an in
quiry extending over more than de-
cade. Over 1900 skulls were exam
ined, including all the available collec-
tions in Great Britain. Among SO
skulls of ancient Egyptians there were
10 with curious teeth; among 76 An
glo-Saxon skulls, IL; among 146 skulls
of Romano Britons, Al, and "A miscel-
laneous skulls of ancient Britons, 8.
Several other collections gave like re.
suits: Examining skulls of savage
races, 27.7 per cent. of Tasmanians
were found to have dental carries; g. As
per cent. of native Australians, 24.25
per cent. of the natives of East Africa,

1T
Before recent meeting of the Sani-
tary society Of Indianapolis, Miss Mary
Dean made some instructive remarks
Man, she said, is still the only animal
that kills himself with his own dirt. She
recounted a visit to the parks in New
York, which she described as crowded
full of filthy 'sitters,W and that the
parks smelled like close rooms, the
people in them needed washing SC
badly. "Many foreigners in New York
are too filthy for any republic" she
said, and she saw number with ewes
made sore for lack of cleanliness. II
was her opinion that people who are
able to live are able to wash. 1t was
her opinion that there was work in
this country for every one who wanted
1t, and thas many farms were being
uncultivated for want of help. Men
want $3.50 for eight hours work, and
the farmer can get but 45 cents fol-
wheat. There are plenty of farms, she
said, where the farmer would spare O
bit of ground for man to have a house
and bit Of garden and, with wages of
no more than 25 cents day, he could
get along better than being q burden
to the benevolent in the parks of New
York. ave have an enormous army
of sitters,n she continued. people
who endeavor to elevate the poor by
giving them entertainmentsan and serv-
ing them with ices, German waters
and elocucation." Her idea was that
soap would be more to the point; and
there are many hyglenists who will
second the motion.
ttt
OF all the employment open to wo-
men, none does her so much credit as
does that of the trained nurse. Even
this vocationis enlarging, Every good
summer and winter resort now employs
trained nurse. The custom began in
hotels patronized by invalids and has
extended to almost every seaside and
mountain retreat in the country. 1t is
well known that every physician of
note prefers to intrust important cases
to the care of special nurses. When
these cases occur at summer resort, or
as is often the case, the patient is or
dered by the attending physician to
one or the other place for change of
air, nurse Is many times q necessity,
and consequently their number in :
creased with the proportion of summer
travel. One nurse who is q favorite in
Washington is always taken to Nam
tucket through the Recommendation of
a leading physician, by whom she is
regularly engaged. The same way
with the other resorts. Every city has
its favorites among professional nurses,
and in this way the profession often
finds summer work by no means as
wearing as one would be led to sup
pose. These nurses have stated hours
and times for everything, and are thus
enabled to obtain considerable rest as
well as enjoyment, even the very busi-
est Of them. One can therefore readily
understand the reason why the profess
sion is yearly growing in favor among
young ladies' Of culture and refinement,
whose means are not sufficient to ena.
BILE them to ignore work. The advan-
tage is twofold, as everyone who has
enjoyed the attention of a well trained
nurse in contrast to the ignorant ser
vices of the Betsy Prigg and Sairy
Camp order can testify.

ABSOLUTELY Pure
With Strange Device.

A terrapin with same mysterious let
ters on bis back was found near Aulis
mill last week. The letters were IN
capitals, and one each of T, E, G and
F, and three big C's were cl learly de-
fined, the yellowish portion of the
terrapin's back forming the letters,
with the darker portion: as the back
grodnd. The terrapin was the ordinary
spring branch variety. After salts
factory look had been taken Of the anil
NAL by several persons, it was allowed
to 90 its way. This is no humbus, but
a real fact, and an effort will be made
to overtake the animal with its curious
device.
It is suggested to Us that the letters
have some mysterious reference to
the Tillman-Gary-Evans office seeking.
This view takes in all the letters ex-
cept the F, and the three big C's. which
no doubt refer to Carolina's Catac!ysmal
Combination, which is now going the
rounds, with an exhibition here on
Friday next.
It's pity that the terrapin with this
portentious message was allowed to
escape so soon, and we hope be will be
caught and the scientist of the stump,
Col. Cal. Caughman, take hand IN
interpreting the enigmatical writing
on the shell.

How the Proclamation Took.

The Governors proclamation declar-
ing the reopening of the dispensaries
was received in full by wire by the
Herald and News on Monday afternoon
and issued promptly as an extra" 1t
was read with eagerness in Newberry
but created no excitement. AS it was
expected, it made no sensation, but
was commented upon calmly. Our
dispatches from Columbia Monday
stated that South Carolina was all
astir; that the announcement created d
great sensation all over the State, and
that it was generally thought the
matter would cause serious trouble. AS
we circulated around pretty freely in
Newberry the day the proclamation
was read here, we had chance to
remark the quiet demeanor Of our
citizens generally on the situation. Ii
the proclamation was received IN other
towns with as much serenity as in
Newberry, the great excitement all
over the State was confined to heated
imaginatiors:
Tie fact is, if people were left to
themselves, to do their own thinking.
there would be no cause to anticipate
trouble. Aside from few of the most
bitter and extreme anti-Tillmanites,
the great body of law-abiding Conser-
vatives in Newberry-and no doubt it
is so throughout the State-are tired
of the strife, and show willingness to
reason calmly. We have talked with
mapy of them on this dispensary sub
iect, and while there is diversity of
opiuion as to the wisdom and propriety
of the Governors latest move, they
seem not to be worrying very much
about it. They realize that unfortunate
lv there is truth in the Governors
remark that "the State is flooded with
coptraband whiskey sold without
authority of law" They are know
that blind tigers flourish while we have
a prohibitory law which is not en-
forced, and they see that the men who
are the most anxious to rise in rebel
lion against Governor Tillman are the
men who make no effort tc suppress
blind tigerism, and they will not lend
their aid and encouragement to the
whiskey men and their allies. They
would be willing to fight the reopening
of the dispensaries and to enforce pro-
hibition if they saw that those who are
ready to oppose the dispensary were
equally determined to fight the blind
tiger.

THE ALLIANCE CATECaIsM.
Some Answers to the Questions Submitted
to the Candidates.

Chairman R. T. c. Hunter of the
County Alliance Committee sent out
the following questions to all candidates
for office in the county:
"First. Will you discuss the Alliance de-
mands in the coming campaign, particularly
those relating t. the finances or the country,
and defend them against the enemies OF our
ordero
Second. Will you pledge loyalty to the de,
nands Of the National Farmers Alliance and
Industrial Cniou above loyalty to party eau
Gus, aud vote against any ana all canoidx'es
who decline to commit themselves 10 tnis eN'

Replies have been received by Mr..
Hunter from two candidates for the
Legislature aud several candidates Tor
county Offices.
John T. Duncan takes up column
and a half in his reply, and The Herald
and News has rot space to publish IT.
He answers the first question IN the
affirmative; to the second-"I would
not be bound by party caucus against
the demands"; and as to voting against
apy and all candidates who decline to
commit themselves" be answers NO"
but would as rule vote for all candi-

been in full sympathy with the Farm
ers' Alliance and its demands, [ can

your questions, Yes
Irby D. Shockiey-"Yes."
D. II. Wertz-"I have always dis
cussed the Alliance demands at any
and all times called on."
J. n. Feagle-"The Alliance viii;
always find me standing with them"
He makes also the point that the office
be seeks has nothing to do with max
ing the laws, and he will leave the que;s-
tions to be discussed by those who do
make laws.
F. E. Maybin-"Will, defend the
Alliance anywhere and at any time;

the second question, and "can say with
