THE COMING DOCTOR.
He VIII Vaccfnate for All Kinds of
Diseases.

ne VIII Sacc1nate TOT All htndS OF
Diseases.
/ have at last made up my mind as to
the future of medical science, writes
Walter Besant. AS doctors are begin
ming to understand that they are totally
unable to prevent or drive away certain
diseases, they will presently pass on
to adopt for all diseases what has hith,
erto proved useful for one. They will
resolve upon inoculating or v~accinating
for them in early life.
All of US, especially those of us who
are graybeards, are agreed that old age
ught to be a time full of peace, serene
and tranquil. A sunset in July, after a
day of clear sky and hot sunshine,
should represent old age. Too often
in November, with no sur visible but
only a deepening gloom, represents old
age. Since, then, there is no difference
of opinion on the subject, all we have to
do is to arrange the most scientific way
of taking our diseases early. We shall
vaccinate, in a word, for all possible dis
eases in classes and groups. Thus some
unfortunate becomes equity, asthmatic,
rheumatic and other adjectives as the
clock goes round. We shall be vac.
cinated for this class of disease if our
ancestors or parents have had any OF
them, if there appears to be any danger
or any tendency.
Consider what a huge amount of u
fering would be alleviated by vaccinat'
inn tho ohinc for fhic nlaSC of IJCnaCa
alone. Physicians will, of course easily
classify the various ailments that are
now helped SO freely-indeed, l am
quite certain that in the long run
science will discover one universal vac,
cinating stuff which will enable the in
FAINT to have and enjoy in the mildest
form possible every disease under the
sun all at once. What will happen after.
ward? He will in after life only suffer
from those diseases which he has
brought upon himself by his own follies
and excuses. These, of course, thanks
to the vaccination will be of a much
milder type. If he leads a moderate life,
taking everything that belongs to life
with prudence, he will actually "get"

by the fire, his hands folded; his work
done; no longer anxious for his own rep
utation; no longer worrying about his
last book; 10 longer jealous or angry
OIL sorry; he will look on, curious and
Interested. It will be the most delight
full time possible.
At the close of it he will be found
sleeping in his bed, his face calm and
peaceful as the thoughts which filled his
brain. I fear that | cannot, by any eff
forts of my own, hope to discover the
universal v~accinator; but it will be dis
covered; the basis of it probably grows
in the hedge. l am sure that it will
come if only because the fortunate dis
coverer will be able to pile up a more
colossal fortune than the brain of man
has ever yet imagined. From every
class and every rank the money will
pour in. No millionaire of America will
be compared for wealth with the dis
coverer of the universal ~vaccinator.
And this consideration will stimulate
rcsearch.-Chicago News.

Spring cleaning need not necessarily
be made the drudgery it is if properly
done. Paints, floors, hard walls and
windows may all be cleaned without
rubbing, by wiping over with strong
suds made of Ivory soap and hot, soft
water, then rinsed and dried. A room
thus cleaned will be fresh and sweet,
with no unpleasant odor of strong
soaps or cleaning fluids.

A VILE FELLOW
Frightens Little Girl by His Vicious
Conduct

A degraded brute by the name of Joe
Dogostine was arrested on the east side
yesterday afternoon by Officer Romans
on a charge of indecent exposure. The
fellow is fruit peddler and at about 9
o'clock called at the residence of Mrs.
Van Hoven on South Gates street. He
came up to the door and asked If any
fruit was wanted. Mrs. Van Hoven's
13-year-old daughter answered the call
and stated that her mother was gone and
that she had no money The peddler
then went out to his wagon and brought
in a watermelon, which he deposited on
the floor. Then he took the girls hand
and begged her to kiss him. She re-
fused to do this, at which the fellow COM
mtted the offense mentioned. The girl
ran out of the house screaming and two
neighbors hurried over to see what was
the matter On learning what had hap
pened they seized Dogostine and held
him until a policeman could be sum-
moned.

A BOX OF PAINTS
A Young Man of Artistic Tastes Gets
Into Trouble

A queer embeZzlement case came up
at the police station yesterday. o. w
Boggs, a young man about town, was
arrested on a warrant sworn out by Mrs
Bolte. Some time ago Boggs became
enamored of Mrs. Bolte's daughter, who
was doing turn at the Vienna Buffet
The two became very familiar. and in
some way, it is claimed, a paint box
owned by the young woman came into
the possession of Boggs. He says that
it was loaned to him.
Shortly afterward Miss Bolte jour-
neyed to Arizona on a professional en-
gagement, but before she left she made
her mother a present of the paint box
the return of the box was demanded,
and Boggs promised that he would bring
it around Immediately. Days passed
and neither Boggs nor paint box showed
up. Other demands were made upon
him which met with similar answers,
but the same results. Finally Mrs.
Bolte grew weary of waiting and made
a little inquiry for herself She found
that the box had been pawned for fifty
cents and then sold. She placed its real
value at $12 and makes a demand for
this amount. Boggs was unable to raise
the money and was then arrested on a
charge of embezzlement.
