The sin against the Holy Ghost IL
held by Catholic divines TO be the
truly terrible one of willfully, persist
entity and with full knowledge refus-
ing to repent Of gricvous sin IN life
and in death. Inn word, it is the
sin Of final impcnitence, which, OF
its very nature, prccludcs the divine
forgiveness. The granting Of full
pardon and Of eternal bliss to the
sinner who glories in his shame and
who only needs a further lease Of
life for further misdccds would stul.

No order can move him. He would

ooas Matters Moshen should. bus Thal
All Do Not. Understand.
After n case Of measles recently,
the physician called to assure him.
self that all was we'll and to make
sure disinfection had been thorough.
The mother Of the child had listened
to instructions with one ear, while
the other was bcnt upon the coming
Of carriage wheels to take her shop
ping. She knew all about il, and SO
when questioned by the medical
man she replied: "Oh, l burned q
teaspoonful of sulphur and sprinkled
the floor with copperas and carbolic,
and washed the walls with borax,
and had the maid put all the bed
ding in the tub. and aired the blank.
cts. and shook the rugs, and spilled
some camphor over the mattress, and
gave the children q good scrubbing
with ammonia in tho water. But
Dick doesn't seem to feel quite 80
well today. and Nellie Is dropping. !"
Tho doctor listened aghast at this
lingo of disinfection- Poor Dick
took cold and was very i'll, and Mel
lie seriously demonstrated her moth
er's perfect knowledge of "how to
disinfcct.
The use of half dozen disinfcct-
ants at once shows ignorance at the
outset Few chemicals are valuable
as disinfectants, and of these only
such are worth anything as are in
diligently applied. Some persons
think anything with an odor is suffi-
Gent. Quite the contrary. Corro-
sive sublimate, one Of the best for
killing microbes, has little or no
odor. Sulphur is only reliable when
its fumes are very strong and they
permeate every her of material and
every crevice of an infected room or
its furniture. Three pounds Of pow
dered sulphur are necessary thor
oughly to fumigate an ordinary sized
room. Every crevice should be tight
~ closed, and any draperies which
are not taken down before tho case
progressed should bespread out over
q temporary line or on chairs. The
fumes should reach the remotest
part Of whatever is in the room.
The sulphur should be put into an
iron pan placed IA tub. with water
in the bottom to prevent fire, and
then ignited with a live coal. The
room should DO left closed for at
least "a hours and we'll aired after
ward.
Sunlight and air are about as es-
sential to disinfection after disease
as is medicine to recovery. It must
be remembered that owing to the
vitality Of the contagion Of disease
infection is most liable where rooms
are badly ventilated and health is
not at par. Distinction is often in
effectual because imperfect and con-
sequently should be we'll understood
before being attempted. Ifdisinfec-
ton was perfectly understood, dis
ease would ere long be stamped out,
for there would not be a second case
Isolation is the great precautionary
measure, and when the least suspi-
cion Of serious trouble is present
there should be no hesitation in Sc
Guiding the patient until positive
diagnosis can be obtained.-New

Negotiations have been pending for two
years between the owners of the land on
Long Beach and the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company to build short line from
Hanover Station to Manahawkin, there
by saving ten miles over the present
route.
The land owners are now determined
to begin development. and they have Of
fered the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
to build twenty-one miles of railroad at
their own expense, and it is thought that
the Pennsylvania will make running ar
rangements for this line and if that is ac-
complished the building of the new road
will be begun about June LIST next.
Other negotiations are being made for
the building of heavy trolley railroad
from some point on the Camden and At
lantic Railroad to Mauahawkin and the
Beach. Undoubtedly the enterprise will |
be pushed, and be accomplished, if the
arrangements are not made with the
Pennsylvania.
The owners of the land on this mag
ni6cent stretch of beach, but fifty miles
from Philadelphia and fully ripe for de-
velopment. are now in dead earnest for
securing better railroad facilities. With
shorter time and more rapid transit, the
beach can be reached in seventy minutes,
whereas now by the slow, circuitous route
two and one half hours are required.

Hi gh License.


Col. Potter, of Bridgeton, counsel for
the State Liquor Dealers Association, and
Supreme Court Commissioner Stratton
were at Toms RIVER on Friday hearing
testimony regarding the hlgh-license cleo
ton in Stafford township, Ocean county.
The election took place August %, 1894,
and fixed the minimum license fee for a
retail saloon or hotel at $1,000. The testi-
mony will be used in arguing in certiorari
proceedings before the June term of the
Supreme Court, when the constitutionality
of the Werts law will be attacked.
Stafford township was made the test
case, although there are five other town
ships in Ocean county and several in
other parts of the state that haye held
similar elections. 1t is believed to be the
plan of the Liquor Dealers Association to
attack first the constitutionality of the
Werts law, and if that is not successful.
then the method of holding this particu-
lar election.

wreck train No. 318, on the Amboy Divis-

gineer stopped to avoid an obstruction on
the tracks he saw two tramps stink away
into the woods. Word was telegraphed

tectives were promptly at work on the
case and they discovered that two urchins,
whose parents live near the scene, had
found an old coupling link, broken out at
one end, which they laid over one of the
rails. Upon this they piled lot of coal
and cinders. They wanted to see the
"engine joggle." The urchins were badly
scared by severe lecture from the de-
tectives.
