The question of quarantine rs a
safeguard against the Introduction of
disease is discussed in recent mum
Der of "The Hospital" London med-
cal paper of high standing This pa
per sketches the history of quarantine
from its inception at the city of Nj
Ian in the fourteenth century, up to
the present time. The arguments lis u
however are by no means convincing.
They consist mainly in showing hat
however strict the quarantine regula-
tons may be there will be communi-
cation through smugglers and others,
and thus disease may creep in. The
experience gained on these Islands
would point to the fact that strict
quarantine is a safeguard. Like any
other safeguard it may not be abso-
lutely perfect, but with us it has an
swered its purpose admirably. The
Medical News of New York is strong
for quarantine and endorses Senator
CATERS bill. Because in one place
quarantine does not answer through
lack of ability or power to make it
thorough, there is no reason why it
should not answer when the circum-
stances are such that it can be thor
ough.

The law of inquest needs amending
As it reads now to have an inquest

it says: "As soon as the coronc" shall
have notice of the. death of any per-
son, within his jurisdiction, supposed
to have come to such death by poison
ing, violence or in any suspicious man
ner." With wording such as this ii is
natural that people should resent an
inquest, because it seems to cast sus.
picion. But if it were differently
worded, and every sudden death.

We have only to go back to the
time Of Charles I. to come upon the
discovery of the circulation of the
blood. To day we understand that
the life of the body is in the blood,
and that impurities in it are the seeds
of disease. Whatsoever improves the
digestion and stimulates the Liver,
Lungs and Kidneys, drives out these
impurities, or disease germs, and en-
riches the blood, and is, therefore, the
source of health and strength. Thus
far in the history of medicine nothing
has been SO successful in this as

ANOTHER occupies the lamented

who outrank him in Washington,
but in Tennessee he is the head of

the leader of the Tennessee Democ-

A Farmers Dream.

Once farmer had 1000 bushels of
wheat, which he sold, not to one
single grain merchant, but to 1000
different dealers, a bushel to each.
A few of them paid him in cash, but
far the greater number said it was
not convenient then, but would pay
later. A few months passed, and the
mans bank account ran low. "How
is this?" he said. my two thou
sand bushels OF grain should have
kept me in affluence until another
crop is raised, but l have parted
with the grain and have instead
only a vast number of accounts.
so small and scattered that cannot
get around and collect it fast
enough to pay my expenses" So
he posted up a public notice and
asked all those who owed him to
pay quickly. But few came. The
rest said, "Mine is only small mat.
ter, and will go and pay some of
these days." forgetting that though
each account was small, when all
were put together they meant a
large sum to the man. Things went
on thus; the man got to feeling so
bad and rolled and tossed about so
much in his efforts to collect that he
fell out of bed and awoke, aud run
ming to his granary found his two
thousand bushels of wheat still
safe there. He had only been
dreaming and hadn't sold his wheat
at all.

Stretch thou thy wings, dear Lord,
above our home;
Spread thy strong pinions on this
sacred spot;
Guide thou our feeble footsteps when
we roam,
Let not thy tender mercies be forgot.
Hover, Great Spirit, in our earthly air
God of our Fathers, build thy altar
there!
Bear us, dear Lord, on thy unwearied
wing;
Teach us, thy unhedged weaklings,
how to fly.
Plume our poor pinions till they tribute
bring
Up to thine own grand aerie in the
sky.
Hold us above the rock rift and the
clod-
Lord God of hosts, be thou alone our
Godl
Upward still and upward, guide our
flight;
Fix thou our eyes above, dear Lord, on
thee;
Battle thou our plumage in eternal light,
Spread our weak wings to all eternity.
And when thou stirreth up our earthly
rest,
God of our fathers, lead us to thy nest!
