GERMS OF THE TELE-
PHONES.

In spite of what alarmists say about
the danger of infection by the germs
of disease in telephone transmitters
the mischief caused by this possible
source of contagion is probably COM
paratively inappreciable. That tile
rush of the breath in speaking will
carry all sorts of microbes on to the
surface of the diaphragm is beyond
doubt, but the number of cases in
which infection has been traced to
this cause is not so large as might
have been expected. Still, the danger
does exist to a certain extent, and it
is said that tOnsilitis has been spread
through the staff of a large office by
the use of the telephone. The Ger
mans have sought to lessen this risk
by the employment of disks of alb
surbent paper, which each user of the
instrument would place into the trans
mitter, and remove after the CONVEX
sation was ended. This, of course.
was a purely mechanical makeshift.
A chemist now proposes more radi-
cal remedy, the killing of the mi
crObes on first contact with the dia-
phragm which has been treated with
an antiseptic fluid which brings quick
death to the tiny disease germs. This
fabric is cut into disks of suitable
size to fit over the mouthpiece of the
telephone. Over the disk fits a cap.
or holder. consisting of a rim and a
fiange for holding the disk in its
proper position. 1t is claimed that
the invention does not interfere in
any WAY with the transmission of the
voice sound, and by its use all dan
ger of infection from the germs of
throat or lung troubles is obviated.
and contagion from sore mouths is
made next to impossible.

HOW TO WARD OFF AN ATTACK

In speaking Of this much dreaded d.
sease, Mr.. G. M. Dixon, of Pleasant
Ridge, Pa, said: 81 have little girl
who is troubled frequently during the
winter months with croupy affections.
Whenever the first symptoms occur,
my wife gives her Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, and the result is al
ways prompt and satisfactory" This
remedy is used by thousands Of moth
ers throughout the United States,a

CAN'T PRINT A spEEcH

A decision of much interest to news
paper managers was made by Judge
Burnell, of Wisconsin, lately. 1t was
a suit for damages for libel based on
the publication in the Oshkosh North
western, at the time when Mr.. Hicks.
the owner, was minister to Mexico, of
a synopsis of remarks made by Geo.
w. Pratt, also of Oshkosh, before the
Common Council, March 49, 1882
Pratt represented the Oshkosh dis
trict in the assembly at the time, while
one Buckstaff was state senator. A
bill was pending before the legisla-
ture amending the city charter of
Oshkosh, and the council favored the
bill, while Senator Buckstaff opposed
it. Pratt was invited by the city
council to address that body as to the
situation of the bill before the legis-
lature, and in the course of his re-
marks, in explaining the delay in ac-
ton, he stated that Buckstaff was in
toxicated four-fifths of the time.
Both the Oshkosh papers, the North
western and the Times, published his
remarks, and Buckstaff sued both of
them, and Pratt as well, for libel. The
Times and Pratt settled their cases by
paying 800 and $3.50 respectively, but
the Northwestern made fight, its de-
fence being that the remarks were
made at regular meeting of the
council, and that, being the official pa
per of the city il published the state
ment made by Pratt as part of the
proceedings Of the council. The plain
tiff claimed it was not privileged.
On the trial in the Circuit court,
Judge Burnell took the decision of the
merits of the case from the jury, in
structing them that the publication
was libelous, and that the only ques-
ton for them to determine was the
amount of the damages. The Su-
preme court sustains the trial court
and affirms the Judgment.
