ANOTHER CHANCE FOR INDIGNA-
IION

We suggest another indignation
meeting-at once! Here is lot of for

Providence Boston parties have pur-
chased the GRosvENoR estate and will
put up tremendous building on it.
They not only have q franchise
OF the property, but they have
got 1t for all time. They paid
100000 for it and will likely
enough put an equal amount into inn
provements. Then the citizens of Provi-
dence will be called upon to occupy the
building-and if it is a good building
they arc likely to so far forget them
selves as to tumble over each other in
their eagerness to pay tribute to the
rapaciousness and greed of this foreign
corporation, who must needs squeeze
the interest on their investment out
Of the citizens Of Providence, but who
will smoke their cigars and drink their
champagne on Boston Common the
while they jeer and scoff at
the unfortunate citizens of this
community, who won't wake up
to the fact that they are being op-
pressed until it is too late. AS for poor
WILLIAM GRosvENoR it is apparent
that he has sold the birthright that he
acquired-by reason of Miss RosAMAsoN,
the neice of AMAsA MASON and daughter
of WILLIAM MASON, whose magnificent
family mansion was afterward known
as the Tockwotten House, marrying
his father-for a mess of pottage.
Ten years from now, 100000 will
appear to be paltry price to pay
for perpetual control of this fine
property and WILLIAM GRosvENoR
ought to blush for shame as
he beholds his fellow citizens being
sweated to pay interest to these foreign
capitalists with their pottage factory, to
whom the birthright has been sold.
We trust We may he pardoned the
above bit of unblushing nonsense. It is
not designed to affront the average
reader. but is simply humble effort to
get down to the views of the handful of
men in the community who just now
are yearning for something to get in
dignant over.
Here's another chance for them!

A DiDhtheria Remedy That Should Be
Used With Caution.
A prominent Topeka physician who
makes a specially of throat diseases
came to the STATE JOURNAL Office today
TO give warning about the size of doses
of the diphtherla remedy recommended
by the Chicago nurse and printed in tie
JOURNAL
The Topeka physician says he would
not like to criticse the remedy but
would caution parents about the amount
of the remedy they administer to their
children.
The remedy given by the Chicago
nurse is as follows:
"DIphtheria medicine = Three fluid
ounces tincture henbane leaves, one fluid
ounce of wine of anIimony. Take one
teaspoonful in a little water every four
hours; for children according to age"
He says an adult dose tof this remedy,
as usually given, is: Henbane tincture,
ten to thirty minims; wine of anthony,
one 10 five drops.
OF this dose it should be divided for
children in about the following proper
tions: Two years old, one-seventh; four
years cd, one-fourth; six years old, one
third; ten years old. one half, and sixteen
years old, full dose.
