VIGILANCE AGAINST THE PEST.
What Happened TO Kate Field in Fifth
Avenue Omnibus In New York.

What Happened TO Kate Field in n Fifth
Avenue Omnibus In New York.
If Kate Field, of Washington, We're
not woman whose word cannot be
questioned this story of an occurrence
in a Fifth avenue omnibus would not
be believed. A friend and herself had
entered the vehicle, says the New
York Press, and another woman and a
man followed at intervals of block
or two apart. Presently q gentleman
got in who was recognized as one of the
most eminent physicians in New York.
He made his way up to the front of the
two, then turned and looked earnestly
upand down the two sides on which his
fellow passengers We're seated. A mo-
ment later he pulled the strap and
stepped to the door
Ladies' said he, lone Of you has
smallpox. I shall have to trouble you
all to lift your wells" The narrator and
her companion responded at once, but
the other woman held back. The man
arose and beat q hasty retreat, the doc
tor holding open the door, but saying
as he did so: "You would be wiser, sir
to come with us and be vaccinated"
The man came back and took his seat
quietly in the omnibus, and the doctor
ordered the driver to drive at once tc
the stable, which he did. From the
stable the doctor telephoned for al
ambulance, In which the woman who
had refused TO lift her veil was taken
away to the hospital, she having be
come thoroughly frightened by that
time and offering no resistance. The
doctor procured some fresh vaccine
from neighboring druggist and vac
cinated the two ladies and their male
fellow passenger.
He explained that he had detected
the odor Of the disease on entering the
omnibus, and that it was only by such
prompt action as his that it would be
possible to stamp out the epidemic In
the great city.

INJURIOUS MODERN DANCING.
What "a Physician Thinks of tho Art as
Now Practiced.

Now Practicod.
The art of dancing as practiced by
the Greeks and Romans was useful
form of gymnastics that they held in
great esteem, regarding II rightly as a
means eminently suited to develop the
organism. We must confess, however,
that In our times this art has degen-
Grated, says writer In the European
edition of the New York Herald, and
can be called unhealthy in the great
majority of cases and not In all, a.
dancing In the open air In the daytime
may have decided merits. This Is
never true for balls given in rooms
filed with people, overheatcd by a
quantity of lights, and with the at
mosphere thoroughly poisoned by the
not be brilliant.
1t is scarcely necessary to refer to
the dust of all kinds, to the innumera-
BILE microbes that the dancers send fly
ing into the air, nor need we speak Of
tho untimely strain imposed on the
organism which, at a time when 1t
ought to be at rest, is on the contrary
over excited. What greater mistake
than the midnight supper at which the
most unwholeeome things are eaten
and drunk? The guests bolt in very
short time food that is generally heavy
and washed down with strong wines,
and this Is scarcely over before the
dancing is resumed, against the most
elementary rules of common sense and
hygiene. Nor is this all; 1t is not only
the body alone that Is concerned, as the
mind has its share in this fatigue by
the vivid emotions produced by the con-
versation, music and flowers.
1t Is quite usual after ball TO find
that the action OF the heart shows
traces of fatigue, particularly in deli.
cate young women, who complain of a
vague sensation of uneasiness, sadness
and even of pain, and are, in word, in
peculiar condition that is not yet dis
case nor is 1t health-much nearer the
former than the latter.
Diseases caused by dancing are com
moner In women than In men. The
most frequent are larynigitis, particu.
larly in women who talk great deal
while dancing; colds, bronchitis and
sometimes pneumonia and pleurisy.
Dancing should be absolutely forbid
den in all cases Of consumption, which
may assume a very rapid form from
this cause; it Is counter indicated, as
well, in all cases Of heart trouble.
Physicians are unanimous in con
demning dancing as 1t is understood al
present, but 1t might be made q

the amount of exercise were In proper
ton to the strength of the dancers
Like all other bodily exercises, Il
should be used in moderation.

What Dr.. Macgaggart
HAS DONE AND IS DOING.

The Doctor wishes the public to understand
that he is not soliciting the ordinary run OF
cases, but desires Just such diseases 10 treat
that other physicians cannot succeed with or
at least fail to cure. When you suffer from
such consult HIM consultation Is freel nave

what he tells you can be relied upon as fact
beyond refutation. Some may say, "Why go 10
Dr. MacTaggart when we have as good doctors
here as anywhere?" Yes, so you have In their
line OF practice, but not in those specialties
that DR.. MacTaggart Is schooled and practiced
in. In support Of this unqualified assertion
read his testimonials-not only read them, put
investigate the truthfulness OF them. Where
are the physicians who can remove cancers
without pain and cure 1t beyond peradventure?
He does it. Where can you tind another phy-
sician in Pennsylvania who can remove tumors
OF even 80 pounds weight without the use or
the knife, without pain, and without leaving a
SCARF DR., MacTaggart does it. What physi-
clan can cure fistulas without cutting or caus-
ing the least pain or soreness during treatment?
DR.. MacTaggart does 1t successfully. These
are golden truths-gO,den because 1t proves be-

specialties particularly. is advancing with
rapid strides far in the lead OF the regular

A CARGO OF WIVES.

How n Community of Hungarian Miners
Settled the Marriage Question.
"I think the most remarkable sight
ever witnessed" said Pueblo (Col.)
man to st. Louis Globe Democrat rep
resentative, was at small mining
town in our state, where the majority
of the miners are Poles or Hungarians
or both. For some time q rumor had
gone around that the bachelor men,
bers of the community had sent enough
money to the old country to secure a
delegation of unmarried females to
come out and share their good fortune
with them. The prospective bride
grooms drank more than usual as the
arrival of the peculiar cargo became
more certain, and when finally tele-
gram was received from New York that
these damsels had actually arrived and
were on board q train, the men cele-
brated tho last of their bachelor days
by frst-class drunk. They were
fairly sober on the morning the train
was to arrive, and putting on their best
clothes they arrived at the depot with
that peculiarly uncomfortable look
which miners are apt to assume when
dressed for meeting. About half the
town was st the depot as well, and
some one rather InGlioiously started q
cheer when the young Indies with their
huge bundles began to elight from the
cars. The crowd took up the idea and
a mighty cheer rang through the air.
The miners took charge of their pro-
posed brides, and retired with them to
the house of q married friend, where 1T
is to be presumed brides and bride
grooms were divided up so as to suit
the feelings of the majority. The proc
ess did nor take more than half an hour,
and within an hour of the arrival of
the train local justice of the peace
had securely tied the sundry and divers
knots necessary to complete the trans
action No marriage bureau ever did
business In so strictly a regular and
satisfactory manner"

The material used for this particu.
lar gown was white muslin, embroid-
cred, at far intervals, with tiny pin

ground cluster of forget-me-nots. The
skirt was made with the usual flare,
and finished with three narrow ruffies
that had for their heading half-inch-

each side of the front in rosette fash

in at the wrist and had IS their edge

NoMe ot tre CUCKOo OLOon.

The Little Town Of viiiingcn. Located In
tho Iiluck rorcst of Germany.
Villingcn is one of the centers for
The Black Forest clock industry. The
making of clocks In the Schwarzwald
dates from very old time, and the In
iustry has here attained some forms
which are to be found nowhere else,
says the Philadelphia Telegraph. II
Is, perhaps, the most distinctive of all
the skilled trades of these clever peo-
pie. The inhabitants of the hills, from
the earliest time, In distinction from
the residents of the valleys, who pre-
ferred TO farm, have shown love for
woodwork, and centuries ago trained
their hands to cut out various clever
untensils. Their skill In this line took
the form of clockmaking about 1850 or
800. There were very rudimentary
ideas ahoat concerning what constitu-
ted clock In those days. AT first a
weight was used hung from a string.
Later the pendulum was introduced.
Then came the striking one-day clocks.
Again, little later, the eight-day
clocks. BY their own discoveries and
by the adoption of the inventions of
foreigners these people have thus
steadily kept themselves in the front
rank among the clock manufacturers
of the world. This section particularly
excels in making automatic clocks, and
clocks combined with musical boxes
and other novelties. The principal
thing in this line, however, Is the
cuckoo clock Gn German kukuk). The
Nnrathar
about one hundred and fifty years ago
by an inventive old Schwarzwaldcr, and
the popularity of his clever mechanical
device continues without abatement.
The cuckoo is put up in every kind
Of a clock case and with every kind of
good, bad and indifferent time-keeping
machinery. He may be had, works and
all, for one dollar, and so on up, ac-
cording to the quality of his song and
other characteristics. His special pc
culiarity, of course, is his regularity,
and this is what got him into trouble
in the United States. lie has small
cage up at the top of the clock and when
ever the time comes for him TO go
through his exhibition his door flies
open, he steps out in front, bows and
flaps his wings and sings his little song.
He has been criticised for his limited
repertory. Nature did this, and no
bird can improve on nature. The pc
culiar sound Is made by the use of q
sort of double bellows, through which
the wind is forced ut the proper inter
walls. If it is good clocl, the mimicry
is perfect. 1t Is an invention which
could have been made only here In the
land of the cuckoo. At this time of
the year the bird can be heard see
saving away in every copse Of woods.
He has points of difference from the
American cuckoo. He does not lay his
egg in other birds nests, and seems, in
fact, to be very decent kind Of fowl.

Lcgead OF the Daisy.

There Is u pretty legend connected
with the daisy, which is an Old World
flower Americanized. When the early
Christians of Britain were prosecuted
and put to death st. Bruon persuaded
his sister, st, Ole, to flee with her
maiden companions. After the perse-
cution ceased the bishop searched
fruitlessly for his sister until he noticed
that there sprung up in his pathway
little tufts of flowers with golden
hearts and starry rays Of white. lie
took them for his guides, and following
their mute becloning, after many days
they led him to desert place where,
In rocky hiding place, he found his

That Altered the Caee,

OF the late French Senator Renaud
the Kolnische Zeitung tells the follow
ing anecdote:
When Renaud first came as senator
to Paris from his home in the Pyrsnees
he engaged room at hotel and paid
months rent-one hundred and fifty
francs-in advance. The proprietor
asked him If he would have a receipt,
"It Is not necessary, replied Renaud.
God has witnessed the payment"
"Do you believe in God2" sneered the
host.
"Most assuredly," replied Remand,
don't you9"

"Ah," said the senator, ain that case
please make me out receipt"

Plugging Ears to Induce sleep.

In order to insure sound sleep Prof.
Scripture, of Yale, has for years plugged
up his ears AZ night. He explains the
process as follows: THE stick of wax
is warmed over the gas flame, and a
sufficient quantity is pressed off be-
tween the thumb and finger. This is
placed in the entrance Of the external
meatus. In order TO make such fit
that no sensl lions OF touch are pro
duced when the head Is placed on the
pillow, the trggus is placed over It for
an instant, and the end Of the index
finger slightly loosens the top and the
bottom of the plug in the ear Each
morning the autiphones are thrown
away" ...--..
