CATARRH.

AS the skin covers the outside Of the
body, so the mucus membrane lines the
inside Of the body. IL lines the nose the
mouth, the throat, the bronchial tubes,
the air-cells, the nsophagus, the bowels,
the gall bladder, the Kidneys, the womb,
otc. Taking cold IN any region Of this
lining mucous membrane causes an irri-
tation Of the locality, which is always
that part Of the organism, Hence we
have catarrh Of the head, catarrh Of the
throat, cntarrh Of the lungs, Of the stom-
ache, Of the bowels; Of the bladder, Of
the womb, etc

PHOTOGRAPHS ON THE SKIN.
One May Garry Picture Of n Friend
Upon His Flesh Perpet-
ually.

A scientific discovery is bound to be
picturesque and interesting, and
must attract universal attention. A
Roumanisn chemist named Dinkeres-
60 discovered a means of combining
the substances which are used in
sensitizing paper for Photographic
purposes so that they can be applied
to the human cuticle without injur
ing it. and the skin thus be made a
sensitive plate for the printing of
photography. Dinkerescos remark
able discovery is combination of
photography and the etching process,
and that to some extent the image is
"bitten" into the cuticle
At any rate the impression is per-
manent, the image is clear and dis
tinct, and the skin is not made a
negative, but really sort of sensi-
tized paper. The impression does not
wear away with the change of the
tissues and the renewal of the sur
face of the skin because the SUBJ
stances or changes which have been
produced by the process of photog-
raphy are renewed according to the
notifications produced by the "bit-
ing" process. just as those of tat
tooed outline are. And whatever the
mechanical means employed, the re-
suits are remarkable. BY this means
every human being becomes a sort of
photograph album. The ikenesses
of his friends. landscape views asso-
cisted with his childhood or with sig
niticant events in his life. portraits
of the great men and heroes whom he
admires and many other things may
be reproduced beautifully and perma-
nently On his surface.

DIVORCE IS TOO COMMON.
The Courts of England Are Granting
Them More Than Ever
Before.

Official figures show that the di-
vorce court in England was not near
ly so busy in 1898 as it had been in
1897. In the latter year 5S3 and in
1898 43 marriages were dissolved. 1t
is worthy of note that over IS per
cent. of the petitions presented to
the divorce court had reference to
marriages of from five to twenty
years standing. The majority of all
the petitions presented were from
husbands, but of those relating to
marriages of 20 and more years dura-
ton the larger number were from
wives. An interesting feature of the
figures of the English divorce court
indicates the auspices under which
the marriages it was in 1898 asked to
annul were celebrated. About 10 per
cent. are to be credited to the estab-
hshed church, about eight per cent
to other denominations and about 20
per cent. to the registry offices. The
fact that two-fifths of all the mar
riages dissolved were childless leads
to the reflection that absence of chill
dren from the fireside tends to the
dissolution of the marriage tie.
There is no doubt that the presence
of children is source of strength to
the matrimonial bond. because it
adds unspeakably to the happiness of
the married couple.

WANTS INDIANS TO VOTE.
Captain Allison, of South Dakota, to
Give Political InAtructiOn
to the Sioux.

During the next four months the
Sioux Indians on the reservations in
South Dakota are to receive their first
instructions in civics if Capt. E. H. AL
ison has his way about it. Capt. AL
lison is member of the Umcpaphah
tribe of Sioux Indians, having been
adopted by that tribe in 1866, and he
married the Sioux princess, Shawn,
daughter of Sacred Bear, who was for
years head chief of the tribe
Capt. Allison, says a special dis
patch to the Chicago Inter Ocean,
has lived among the Sioux Indians
nearly all his life, and he speaks the
Indian language as fuently as he
speaks the English. He was chief of
the scouts for Gen. Sheridan for sew
eral years, and was chief scout and
interpreter for Gen. Otis in the west
ern country for 10 or Is years.
It was he who, after the Custer
massacre on the Little Big Horn, went
to Canada to induce Sitting Bull and
his band, who had fed thither, ITO re-
turn to the United States; and he
was in charge of the command which
took Sitting Bull to Fort Randall
Few of the Sioux Indians have ever
participated in a presidential cam
paign," said Capt. Allison recently.
I'm fact, but few of them can be said
to have political opinion. 1t lis nv
purpose to go out on all the reserva-
lions west of the Missouri and mold
meetings wherever a dozen or more
Indians can be gathered together.
This work will take three or foaar
months. [ shall give them elementary
lessons in civic duties, and shall try
to show them what it means for them
to be citizens of the United States.
shall explain why it is; necessary to
have elections, polling places, and laws
governing such things. I shall have
blank ballots and conduct mock cleo
tions in order to give these new cit
liens of ours concrete idea of cleo
ton methods"
