TO WASH THE BLOOD.
A Simple Salt and Water Injection In
Place of TRANSMISSION.

Washing the blood Is the latest remedy
for diseases brought on by or causing
sluggish circulation and low state Of the
blood. The washing process Is performed
by plain salt and water. From a pint to
two quarts Of water Is injected into the
system by means OF an ordinary hypodef-
mic syringe.
A vein is opened in the arm Of the pa
tient with the usual antiseptic precautions
and the salt water injected In large doses.
A profuse perspiration and general activity
of the secretory organs follow, carrying
away the noxious matter present in the
blood. The new remedy Is recommended
by several doctors in papers read recently
before the Academy of Medicine in Paris
and has been successfully employed In nu-
merous instances. In cases of an@mia,
typhoid, hemorrhages, sudden shock and
even In cases of intoxication this blood
washing, il Is said, works wonders For
some years surgeons have used a saline
injection in cases of collapse after an OPP
Grafton. 1t IL the most powerful tonic
known and has saved many lives. Its eff
ficacy in ordinary diseases has, however,
only recently been discovered.
Modern medicine has u tendency to re-
sort TO simple methods which recognize
the all curing powers of water Washing
the stomach, as practiced by several New
York physicians, is of very recent origin,
and is considered invaluable in cases of In
digestion A simple bath of warm water
Is often all that Is necessary to restore the
stomach TO its normal condition, by re-
moving the poisonous waste products
which are not profusely thrown off by the
secrctory organs. BY means OF a soft rub
Der tube put down the throat water can be
poured into the stomach and siphoned out
again To wash the blood is of course
more difficult, as the water has to be in
jected into a vein.
1t is well known that the blood Of a frog
can be drawn off and the blood of another
frog substituted without greatly incon-
veniencing the creature. 1t was then found
that salC water solution can be substitute
ed instead of blood, to a considerable ex-
tent at least and the frog will live and be
as sprightly as ever. This fact first gave
the scientists the idea of injecting an arti-
fetal serum into the veins of human be-
ing, either anamic or intoxicated. The
new remedy is very simple in its action
and can always, it is said, be employed
with safety. Washington Star.

SELLING THE DEVIL.
New York's uysterical Epidemic Not n
New One.

The recent epidemic OF "devil seeing'' in
New York IS by no means new form OF
hysteria. Delusions of similar character
have been noted in various parts of the
world through long series OF years.
Luke, in his work on the influence of
mind over matter, gives some interesting
instances of ocular delusions He tells of
the fire at the Crystal palace, in London,
where many animals In the menagerie
were burned to death. On the roof of the
building was n cage, and some one in the
crowd cried out that poor chimpanzee
was being burned up in 1t. Everybody
saw the animal as 1t struggled for liberty
and vainly tried to break the bars. They
watched it chatter and show its teeth,
could see it writhe in wild agony and
finally fall back in the flames, The scene
had horrible effect on the crowd and pro-
duced frenzy of excitement.
In point OF fact, there was no monkey
In the cage at all, or anything resembling
"a monkey. The nearest approach TO IL was
bit of rag that dangled from one of the
bars. The whole scene had been an ocular
delusion, which had affected practically
every one in that vast crowd.
Early in the present century the schools
of Berlin went through with epidemic
almost like that of New York. During
several weeks the devil was alleged to have
appeared almost daily in tho rooms and
halls OF various school buildings The
children rushed from the schools TO their
homes in a state closely bordering on in
sanity and large part of the community
was completely tcrrorizcd. Investigation
Of the various alleged cases brought about
no practical conclusion about the trouble.
The children who had seen IL talked inco-
herently about it and refused To go near
the sccnc of tho appearances. The cpl
demic died out after "a time, and there has
been no recurrence of the hallucination SO
far - IL known.
IN the oriental countries the appearance
OF the devil Is claimed To be ~ common oc-
currcnce There are several gardens in
Hongkong where for many years the devil
is supposed To appear at irregular inter
vals Sometimes the dclusion is expert
enccd by only few people and sometimes
by large numbers. 1t is the practice 70
appcase tho devil by placing swectmcats
and money about the gardens for his use.

Ex Il RA! (!
A BURGLAR IN A CLUB HOUSE.
Rhode Island Yacht Club House Looted
Last Evening.

The house of the Rhode Island Yacht
Club was broken into last night by q
burglar who secured booty valued at
500. The burglar was about feet
inches tall, 20 years old, was dressed in
suit OF black clothes, and wore black
derby hat.
When Fred Nichols, janitor OF the
club house, went into the office this
morning. from his rooms on the top floor
nc found that the cash drawer had been
removed. He searched In and about the
building but could tind 1t nowhere. He
then sent word to Chief Of Police Bigby
OF Cranston and to the police OF this
city but tney could get no track OF the
burglar.
At $3.50 this morning Benjamin
Gorden and wife who live on Fort avenue
in Pawtuxet were awkened by the bark
ing OF their dog. Mir. Gorden got up,
looked out of the window and saw man
answering the description given leave
the avenue and run up Ocean street to
Broad. Just before seeing the man MIR.
Gorden heard q noise like one pulling of
smell board. This, until
! o'clock, this afternoon WAS
all that Mr.. Gordon thought of the mat
ter. At this time he went TO an old un-
occupied brick house, near the corner OF
Fort avenue and Ocean street, looked into
cellar window and there be saw on the
floor a money drawer. He then went to
the residence Of night patrolman Benja-
min X. Allen and asked him III there had
been robbery during the night. MIR.
Allen told him as far as he knew there
had not, but he would go and take the
drawer. Mr.. Allen upon investigation
found that in the drawer was a receipted
bill. the property OF Fred Nichols.
The two men then took the drawer as II
was to the bosthouse. which is located
300 yards north OF the foot of Ocean
street at Pawtuxet.
Here il was found that the burglar had
removed the drawer and half inch board
upon which it bad been fastened to the
bottom OF tie counter. A portion OF the
board had been broken off, and from the
opening the thief took about $50. Had
he taken OF more of the board he would
have found six IS bills, gold watch and
chain and S. gold piece.
Mr.. Nichols and his wife, who make
their home at the club house, say that
they heard a noise about 3 o'clock this
morning, and is presumed that at that
slime the man made his way into the
house by forcing open window in the
kitchen and then took the drawer and Its
contents into Fort street ana undor an
oil apple t,ee, pried off the board, which
woke MIR. and Mrs. Garden up, and the
man seeing him come to the window
made bis escape.
those who.are acquainted at the boat
club will say that the man displayed
some nerve in getting into the house. for
on the walk, which is 800 feet long. is a
fence built across which extends over 10
feet on both sides. This is for the pur-
pose of keeping off persons who are not
entitled TO admission. The man by some
means cfawied out on tue side of this
cross fence, for marks of his feet are
visible.
The police and Mr.. Nichols have a faint
idea OF whom the burglar IL, and ti,is
particular man Will be run down, as his
appearance comedies with that of The
man seen by MIR. Gordon.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
About the time that the tariff bill of
1888 was under discussion. Mr.. Blaine, in
speech made in Boston. said:
II love my country and my countrymen.
I am an American, and rejoice every day
Of my life that am. I enjoy the general
prosperity of my country. and know that
the workingmen Of this land are .he best
fed and the best-clothed of any laborers On
the face Of the earth Many of them have
homes of their own. They are surrounded
by all the comforts and many of the lux
uries OF life. I shudder. however. at the
thought that the time must come when all
this will be changed. when the general
prosperity of the country will be destroyed
when the great body of workingmen in this
land. who are now so prosperous: will hear
their wives and children cry for bread;
that the day must come when the great
factories and manufactures of this land
will shut down. and there will be the ST.

will be SO Is this: The great southern wing
