AyTTTOYTNE.

One of the champion defenders of ths use of antitoxine Is Dr. Valentine Browne, the Health Officer of Yonkers, N. Y, who has contributed to The Medical Record an elaborate report con- cerning the use of diphtheria antitox- inc in that city. The supply of the remedy was insufficient until the be- ginning of February, although few cases were treated with the serum in November. During the two years im- mediately preceding 1893 the mortality from diphtheria in Yonkers was 50 per cent; in 1893 it was 47.36 per cent; in 1894 it was 34 per cent, the new remedy having been used to some extent during the last two months of that year. But in January of the present year the death rate fell to 1866 per cent, and it was only 12 per cent. in February and March 'It will be noticed" says Dr. Browne, that a remarkable saving of human life has been accomplished in this little city through the use of anti toxine, not only by its curative effects, but also by its potency in protecting or immuning children exposed to diph- therta" The report contains the medi- cal history of forty cases attended by Dr. Browne, in only two of which there was a fatal termination.
 Dr. Browne was att first not only sceptical but decidedly opposed to the use of the serum. He strengthens his present attitude in the case by saying: "At least twenty of the cases were of the class called malignant" and his experience during the last twenty years leads him to believe that mot less than fifteen of these twenty pa- tients would have died in spite of the best known treatment employed prior to the use of antitoxine,"

PATRIOTIC.

All patriotic United States men vii | hail with joy the time when our ocean
 commerce takes "a boom" Those were
 proud days for Uncle Sam when our
 national commerce fourished and when l the stars and stripes of American mer- chantmen were to be seen on every sea.
 For years our commerce has languish- ed. Patriotic men have for years ad- vocated governmental aid such as Great
 Britain freely bestows with such sub stantiaI and gratifying results. It is
 with pleasure, therefore, that observers
 note change for the better in this line.
 A contemporary well says on the sub
 ject: "The day is approaching when the
 United States government will have four fine oceanic steamships reserved for it's use in case of war, and the time is also near at hand when the govern ment must pay for the rights which 1t has secured over those vessels. At present the number of large craft which are reserved for conversion into cruis- CTS is but two. Ib is expected that the two new vessels, the St. Louis and St. Paul, will possess qualities far superior to those of the Paris and New York, and on that account their advent upon the ocean, associated as it will be with the knowledge that they are to form part of the effective navy of the Amer ican nation, will attract widespread at tention. But the chief point which con- cerns the American people in that con nection at present is the means by which the new vessels, as also the old ones, owned by the International Nav igation company are to be held for the use of the navy.

Our Export of Millionaire Girls.

!
 The Cleveland Plain Dealer sums up
 the quantity of money which American
 heiresses who have married European
 or titled husbands have carried out of
 the United States, and finds it to
 amount to fully $2OO 100000. It cannot
 be denied that this Is an exportation of capital for which it is hard to see that the United States gets any return what ever. Their are no European heiresses
 marrying poor young American scions of noble families for their titles. Here is where our shrewd forefathers were not quite so shrewd as their cousins whom they left behind in the effete monarchies of Europe. The Europeans in their title system have a magnet which is capable of drawing not only wealth, but beauty, grace, wit, learn g,accompllshment of every sort from us, in return for which the only mag nets we can offer capable of drawing population in any great degree are our public lands, our high protective tariff and the facilities afforded by our ma- chine politics for people who do not care to work to serve on the police or run for office.
 In times when we had work and wag- es more than we had men to take, and immigrants were pouring in at the rate of 790000 per annum, 1t was customary to estimate these immigrants as ad- ding $1,000 each to the wealth of the nation. On this basis we should be gaining threefold as much in one year on our import of penniless laborers as we should lose in half a century on our export of heiresses marrying titles. But, now that our country is growing per- manently poor and more emigrants from the labor classes are going than immigrants are coming, may it not be we'll for us to put a tax on these out going heiresses on the ground that these are part of the national resources and we must Husband our resources7"
 But as there is no i'll without some good, we may get some consolation from the fact that it is better to ex- port heiresses than to import the own CTS of the empty titles they marry. It may also act as a sort of natural selec- ton by eliminating the weakest of our wealthy women and to strengthen the stock from which the real aristooracy of culture and character is to come New York Press.

public that the agency through which they have been acquired is that of a mail subsidy contract. An agreement has been entered into by which a for mer contract relating to the New York and Paris having been cancelled, this fleet of four steamships begins, in Oc- tober next, to make trip a week be- tween New York and Southampton. That implies the delivery of American mails in Europe at more frequent in- tervals than is now possible. The cost of conveniences of that sort is large, but it is scarcely reasonable and it would certainly be unsound public pol ley for the government to try to get along without some of these large steam ships upon it's effective naval list against the contingencies of war. Great Brit ain learned during the Russo-Turkish war that It was necessary at times to have on hand merchant vessels of this class" An emergency might arise at any time when few of these vessels would come exceedingly handy to our government, and 1t is doubtful if the service required could be obtained for less money, at the present time.

In one case particularly, that of a young mar ried woman who was suffering from the troubles many Of our sex are afflicted with.

the sufferings of the most heart strick- en widow, to say nothing of attracting the sympathy of all male beholders. The costume of this sketch, while suffi- ciently elaborate to satisfy any reason able taste, is not so highly wrought as to be open to adverse criticism on that account. It is made of black diagonal with it's skirt bordered around the bot tom with bias fold of crape and hay ing an entire front breadth of the crape. The bodice fastens at the side and has deep crepe yoke and vest to- gether with gathered frills over the shoulders and epaulettes of the same. The fitness of the front Is pleated at the waist, but the back is plain. Col lar, belt, and cuffs of the very full sleeves are also taken from crape.
 Time was when the double skirt upon one belt was known, but now there is seen a double skirt upon one hem. Such a skirt is of black broadcloth over gray satin. The broadcIoth is unbroken from hem to knee, where it is cut into points, that reach to the belt; one point in front, one on either side and two in back. The gray un- derskirt shows in points between. The black points are entirely free from the falling back unless fasten- ed in place to the edge of the belt. This fastening is accomplished by rich cut steel buttons which add not a lit- tie to the elegance of the whole.

Mourning that is FancifuI.

Mourning gowns are occasionally seen that are made so elegantly that they no longer seem a garb of sorrow. Deeply crinkled mourning cape bears much resemblance to crepon, and a skirt of it lined with silk and setting out with fashionable stiffness seems calculated rather to rejoice the heart of the happy, than express the grief of the bereft When you add a bodice of mourning nloire with incrustation of dull jet and further elaborated with draped sleeves of crepe, the whole gown is calculated to at least alleviate

GOOD C1TY GOTERYMENT

The wave of reform which is now be- Ing felt throughout the country is one
 of the best signs of the times. The
 need of reform in New York's politics
 was long felt, and the downfall of | Tammany was a long time coming,
 but it got there at last The successful
 reformatory work in New York has
 given an impetus to and encouraged
 similar efforts throughout the land. The investigations which have been held in many places, in our city among
 the number. have cleared the air and tend to make it plain that the right
 track is the only safe track for public
 officials as we'll as other folks. and that
 there are strong and watchful forces
 that have the public welfare at heart,
 and require integrity and loyalty In
 the discharge of public duties, and de-
 mand the proper enforcement of the
 laws. Good government In cities is de-
 manded! There is strong and grow
 ing feeling in this direction that au-
 gurs well and is cause for congrat-
 ulation. On this subject the Hartford Courant well remarks:
 "Whatever may be the momentary successes of the petty cabals and of selfish traders-perhaps even by reason of these-the determination of the peo- pie to have good city governments is steadily and rapidly growing. Good government clubs and similar organi- zations have been started all over the coming to appreciate the fact that it is as possible to combine in behalf of what Is right as in behalf of schemes of personal advancement, for capturing public offices in private interests. for footing treasuries or for any other of the numerous perversions to which al- legged self government is subjected through the indifference of all but the selfish.
 A suggestion of how this good gov ernment movement has spread is repre- sented in the outline of the coming meeting at Cleveland, Ohio. This is the fiEst annual meeting of the Nation al Municipal league and the third na- tional conference for good city govern ment The annual address will be de- livered by President James c. Garter of New York, and the years work for | reform will be told by Sec retary Woodruff Of Philadelphia.
 The convention will sit May 29, 30 and | 91. During the conference statements will be made as to the municipal condi- | ton of Albany, Buffalo, Chattanooga, Columbus, Denver, Detroit, Indianapolis, Jersey City, Louisville, New Orleans, Omaha, Pittsburg and Portland, Or, San Francis co, Seattle and Washington, D. c. If these are truly told may they also be fully reported, and would that Hart ford, Connecticut, were in the list!
 But the mere mention of the widely separated cities that are to be studied shows the extent of the interest in this vital subject and furnishes an idea Of -he way the yeast has already begun to work. And work it surely will! Apathy and indifference last so long that they Ire reckoned permanent, and then, of and with. them away goes those who nave thrived by them"

An exchange says in reference to the better prices for wheat and the money question: ''The advance in the price of wheat came too late to benefit many of the farmers, but the prospect is that they will get much better prices for this years crop. The talk of dollar wheat is perhaps extravagant, yet there is enough of an increase to show to farmers who are capable of thinking that cheap dollar is not necessary to keep them away from '5O-cent wheat The advance in cotton, corn, oats and beef affords an object-lesson in the same direction.'
