The Chilhowee echo. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1899-19??, 1900-01-20

WE had hoped to enlarge The ECHO
by the first of February, but unless our
circulation is doubled by that time we
will not make any change in our style.
Many publications have met an early
death because of their pretentious eff
forts in the beginning. They sought to
do too much-undertook more than
they could PERFORM ignoring the fact
that successful publication must be a
growth and that it can not be a crea-
ton. Even the practical do not always
succeed, but without the recognition OF
certain facts there can be no success.
A modest successful effort is more to be
desired than one of larger proportions
that fails of success. There are many
things to be considered before criticism
can be intelligent or of benefit. Criti-
cism is a thing in which any one may
indulge without in the least affecting
the course or opinions of others. The
ECHO is not pretentious, and it has no
intention or hope of revolutionizing the
literary or social world. That it is
meeting with such kind and favorable
reception is naturally very gratifying
to it's publishers, and it hopes to grow
in merit until it is worthy of the COM
pliments it has received.

skirts. That's sensible. Why don't all
women wear them? Not too short, but
short enough to keep them from sweep
ing the ground and coming in contact
with all the filth of the street, the side
walk, the crossing and the public
places which are so often polluted by
swinish man. The short skirt may seem
a little odd to those who are used to
seeing things just so, and no other way,
and who are opposed to all changes and
innovations, no matter how great the
improvement, but when generally
adopted, they will seem proper, at
tractive and becoming, and the long
skirt sweeping the dust, outside of the

writers. They are prolix, and the
natural female inclination for post
scripts follows them. 1t takes them a
long time to learn how TO condense the
knowledge they have obtained and they
suffer many pang while seeing the
editors blue pencil making sad havoc
with their elegant periods, nice illus
trations, and wordy introductions-but
after they do learn they make the very
best of reporters, and are as enthusiast
tic devotees to their profession as men.
The Atlanta Journal says: Women
are constantly demonstrating more
clearly their capacity for success in
newspaper work. Thousands of women
hold positions on newspapers in this
country. In fact the daily newspaper
in the United States that has not a
woman on its staff is a very rare excep-
ton. Many women are newspaper pro-
prietors and show ability for business
management as well as editorial and re-
portorial work. There are women
press clubs in nearly every state, and
they have contributed largely and var
iously to the success and popularity OF
the newspapers of this country, and are
now recognized as great and growing
factor in the profession"

Old Fashioned Cancer Cure.

Take the common sheep sorrel which
grows in your yard and which children
eat because OF it's sOurness, mash it up
into pulp in some vessel that will
save all the juice that would otherwise
be lost, then put it into n bag and
squeeze out all the juice on to a pew
ter plate to get some of the acid from
the metal. then put this out in the
sun and let it dry until about as thick
as tar. then put in tight bottle. If the
skin is not broken. put Il drop OF clio
ride OF potash or I've on it TO break the
skin and then apply the sorrel on the
cancer, just covering it with n thin
coat. If the sorrel gets too thick, a
little water will make it so that it can
be handled.
The pain will be severe, but it is 9th
erwisc harmless. 1t will stop hurting
in Il few hours. Keep up these appli-
cations. one every day, until the cancer
can be lifted out without pain. 1t took
four days in my case. The sorrel will
cook the cancer, but 1t does not eat it
as 1t does the flesh. hence it eats all
the flesh away and lets the cancer
loose. When you see the cancer. put
the sorrel on it and not on the flesh.
When the cancer is out, heal the sore
with any kind of healing ointment.-J.
y. Wayland in Appeal TO Reason.

Rurx Their Lerera Alive.

The Chinese have cUriously cheer
full way OF disposing of their lepers.
The relatives of the afflicted person
propose TO him that they bury him
alive, and. such is the fatalism of the
Chinese. that the victim readily con-
sents. An extra elaborate meal is
served to him in the way of n farewell
banquet, and then the funeral process
sion forms. The man who is about to
be immured under the sod follows his
own coffin, and when he reaches the
grave he takes a dose of laudanum,
hops into the box and settles down for
eternity.
DIR. WittenbeTg, writing on the sub
ject of leprosy in China. states that the
pure nerve form is the least common.
In such cases, as is we'll known, the pa
tients may go on for years. As to the
mixed form. it is fairly common. but it
is n difficult matter to estimate the
number of Iepers in any given district.
The sufferers lead the common life so
long as they remain free from destruc-
tive LESSONS. When these occur to any
marked degree. the leper is either seq
regated in a hut or he is allowed to
wander about the country. sustaining
life by begging. DIR. Wittenberg re-
cords cases of direct contagiOn from
pnother-in-law to daughter-in-law.
