A unique prescription EOI' the Liver.
A young clerk whose sedentary life
and lack of exercise have left him with a
sluggish liver and all the evil conse-
quences thereof visited we'll known
physician recently and was advised to
regulate his diet to the utmost plain
ness and to take horseback exercise daily.
The young man frankly told the doctor
that he could not afford to keep Or to
hire horse. The doctor asked him
where he was employed and was told
that he was clerk in certain corpora
ton which is housed i'll an enormous
building on Broadway, and that his
Office was on the tenth floor
Quoth the doctor: ''That's just the
thing. You don't need to hire horse,
Walk briskly down the 10 flights of
stairs three times day, and it will do
your liver just as much good as if you
were jolted on horseback during an
hours ride
The gentleman's friends will proba-
bly, appreciate after they have read this.
why: he persists i'll walking down stairs
at good gait instead Of taking the ele-
vator. The doctor added that no excer-
else was more gently stimulating than
walking down stairs and nothing moro
severe than walking up stairs. New

NEW CURE FOR DIPHTHERIA.
European Hospitals Practicing Method of
Blood Enocu1ation.

European Hospitals Praeticins; Method of
Blood Enocuiation.
So many thousands of children are
annually carried off by diphtheria, the
sufferiugs caused by the disease are so
agonizing and the remedies hitherto at
the disposal Of the medical profession SO
inadequate that the news Of the intro
duction into the Berlin and London hos
pitfalls Of q new and efficacious cure for
this fell malady cannot be regarded
otherwise than as matter Of public in
terest.
Very little has been heard about this
remedy, owing to the fact that the dis
tinguished psychologists engaged in
its discovery have been unwilling to
subject themselves to the same disad-
vantage as DR.. Koch, whose cure for
consumption has been unjustly pro-
claimed a failure merely because it
was published to the world prematurely
and before it was ready for medical ap-
plication. The new cure, briefly speak
ing, is one of incubation, with this
diference-that, instead of injecting
the poison into the system of the pa
tient, one injects the blood of an ami
NAL which has been inoculated with a
weak culture Of the diphtheria bacte-
ria, the virus of the latter being, how
ever, Of so weak a character that it does
not affect the animal with the malady,
but merely renders it immune thereto.
Repeated experiments made of late
have shown that few drops of blood
from horse or any other animal thus
rendered immune injected into q hui
man being suffering from diphtheria
are sufficient to arrest and cure the dis
ease. Of course it is too soon as yet to
quote the statistics of the few hundreds
Of cures which have been effected in
Berlin and London by this treatment,
which is to be fully discussed in all it's
complicated scientific aspects at the
forthcoming international congress of
hygiene III September at Budapest. But,
whatever the ultimate result of it's APP
plication, it has at least one advantage
over all other forms Of incubation hith-
erto overwhelmingly, that the matter
injected into the system of the patient
is free from poison and consequently
harmless. New York Tribune.

Oct. 29.-Therc is being great deal said
about . Constitutional convention of late,
the question TO decide is is it necessary to
have n new constitution l cant see that
it is, think that amendments could DO made
that would answer all purposes, and to have
tho convention would be to put an enormous
e1pen sc upon the people, which We cannot
stand under the present financial depres-
sion. And as to the disfranc chising of any
person, it is all tom foolery, for it is contra
~ to the constitution Of the United States.
The Pea Ridge Rife Company has re-
ceiyet thirty new guns, which Number is
mot sufficient for the boys by half, and fear
the assigning Of arms will cause some hard
feeling, among the boys unless we can get
more guns, which l hope the State will give
us. The company will meet the third Sat
urday in November to see who will get
gun.

Ger. 20th-MR. EDIroR.-The type made
me say some foolish things in my article last
week. For instance Sons weight for somo
weight; false promise for premise cares
for cases caring for soaring; desert for de-
sist. My ohirography is bad, admit, but l
think it is legible as some lawyers l have
seen.
The farmers have had another delightful
week for gathering crops. A heavy thunder
shower, with some hail, passed over this
section Friday evening.
l failed to coufmit myself last week
either for or against Constitutional Com
ventious. If the object Of holding q conven-
ton be to add n property OF luc,tional
qualification for voters, am opposed to it.
In the first place experience and obscrvatio on
have Taught me that, because man has
property and has had educational advan-
tsges, it does not allow as consequence
that he IS more honest or patriotic than his
neighbor who is poor in this worlds goods
and has been deprived Of School training.
There are thousands of men in South Car
olina who ore uneducated in the schools,
yet they are possessed of good hard sense
trained in the school of nature and expert
ence, and cast their vote as iutellgently as
the millionaire.
But thcy tell US that these suffrage quail

BY such stuff. No State can enact law
either organic or statutory that conflicts
with the constitution Of the United States.
The portion Of the constitution, quoted by
MIR. Fowler in his communication last week
speaks for itself. The ide. OF depriving
many Of our best citizens Of their only
weapon Of defence in this critical period OF
the history of our country is simply pre-.
posterous The working classes the men
who produce the wealth of our country
should make a bold and united effort at tho
ballot box. to overthrow the monied oil
garcby entrcuched behind its golden bul
warks, threatening to reduce them into serf
dom and slavery. Another objection tc
holding n convention at this time, is the
expense. The people are in no condition ,e
bear further taxation. Instead Of taxes
being increased they should be decreased al
least, one half Our officials could live
bountifully on half the salary they nov get
if they would use the economy and sef-deui
n we, who follow the plow, are forced te
pr ,ctice. The Constitution should be
amended, but think it may be done by the
legislature and the people without ncurrine
extra expense. c. Is. 3.
