New York, Rhode Island and the Dis
trict of Columbia, is determined to
push at the coming session of Con-
gress the national legislation for the
establishment in the Southern .Appala-
chians of great forest reserve. At the
annual meeting last week Of the asso-
citation at Asheville, President George
S. Powell reported that North Carolina,
South Carolina. Georgia, Alabama,
Tennessee and Virginia had granted
the national government authority to
acquire the lands for the purpose with
in their respective limits, and that
many organized bodies Of business
men had endorsed the project, and
suggested that strong delegation OF
representative citizens should so to
Washington next winter to insure the
passage OF bill for the establishment
Of the reserve. Such BILL it will be
remembered. was passed by one House
OF Congress last winter. but failed to
become a law. The movement. which
is based upon economic principles, and
which. II successful. will benefit i'm

IMMUNITY FROM GRIP.
An Investigation On the Subject of
ReIapses.
(Philadelphia Medical Journal. }

(Philadelphia Medical Journal.)
The present epidemic of grip does not
tend to support the opinions of those who
have predicted that an Immunity TO this
disease would gradually be established
and that influenza itsslf would die nat
ural death for want Of material upon
which to feed. On the contrary, the fact
has been notable from the very tirst ap-
pearanoe, about ten years ago, OF this
prevailing infection, that the grip has
had a tendency to attack the same victim
repeatedly, and that It has slowly and
surely become an endemic disease
amongst us. This is certainly contrary
to what wssexpect to see In an Infectious
disease, aud to what we actually do see
In most of ths othsr so-cAlled zymotlc dis
easss. And yet that grip Is en- infectious
disease, or ths product of a microbe, there
is no reason to doubt. That 1t Is contag-
ious, In the sense that as In any micro
bIan diseAse the spores or the baoiln
themseIve can be passed from one person
to another, is not to be doubted; and yet
1t Is probably not so highly contagious
as some observers contend, Certainly,
with our present knowledge, IL Is not de-
sirabls that alarming statements to that
effect should issue from the medical pro-
fsssion. Where all persons are exposed to
the same cause, many may be affected
without direct personal oontagion.
With reference to the subject of i'm
munity from grip. we wish we could
chronicle some more encouraging facts.
Turney( Lancet, February 8 1881 made a
special investigation ON the subject OF
relapses. and found in England that
quite ten per cent Of tine cases relapse.
How many persons have second, and even
third and fourth attacks In succeeding
years, we do not know. Turney thinss
that II any immunity IL conferred IL Is
unimportant, and that first attack even
seems to redispose 20 second. Many
observers In America Will confirm this
statement GrssswalI claimed that
healthy persons are more liable to be at
tackled than those who have been in bad
health. With reference TO the complica.
tions and sequelae OF grip, 10 Is well TO
rememb ber that many OF these are proba-
bly, due to secondary infection. Tnus
tha pyogenic microbes may cause puru-
lent pleuriEy, OF the pneumocooci may
cause a pneumonia. For these and other
infections the fgrip merely prepares the
soil The disturbances in the nervous
system are probably due TO toxins, al
though SONS of them closely simulate or
ganio LESSONS. Thus a paralysis of the
sixth nerve, occurring as an early ssymp-
tom, was observed In case In this city
last year. In the present epidemic In
Philadelphia grave complications OF any
kind are not SO common as In the earlier
! years.
With reference to treatment, there

very effective. There Is no specific for
grip, and until we have . protective or a
curative serum there probably will be
| none.

Bath, February 12.--Over one hundred
citizens met in City hall this evening tc
discuss the proposed branch of the BATH
Iron Works, which 10 Is feared may go to
some other Maine city. Earnest speeches
were made by members of several leading
firms of the city, and all expressed them
selves as determined TO assist the iron
works to find a suitable location for its
branch In Bath 90 that the entire busi-
ness may be retained in this city. Hon.
John W. Wakefield presided and COM

A POOR BREAKFAST.
Very Few People Eat a Good prealra.

'All / want for breakfast is roll and
a cup of coffee"
This remark Is heard not only in hotels,
restaurants and lunch rooms but it is the
usual breakfast order 10 the home circle
as we'll After n twelve hours fast It
wonld seem that the first meal OF the day
should be hearty, substantial one, and
II we all lived natural, unartificial lives II
would be so, but none Of MS do, hence
breakfast is mere pretence.
Says latter day philosopher: During
many years of active business life, never
remember having eaten good substantial
breakfast but supposed il was of no inn
pOrtRnce until began to lose appetite
for lunch and dinner.
NV physician told me was the victim
of nervous dyspepsia and must take rest
and recreation as no medicine would
reach the trouble, but this advice could
not follow as my business affairs would
not permit it, and to get relief resorted
to medicines and prescriptions and IL was
purely accidental that | hit upon one
remedy which did the business. While
in drug store one evening j noticed a
number of people buy Ing Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets. widely advertised prepara-
tion for stomach troubles, and the force
of example was too much for me and
bought fifty cent package.
/ took a tablet or two after each meal
and in a week my appetite picked up,
began to feel my old ambition for work
returning and could eat good breakfast
because l wanted II, and from that time
to this, take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
as regularly as | take my meals, not be-
cause l now have any trouble with my
stomach, but because l don't want to
have.
A fifty cent box of Stuart's Tablets will
last me a month and keep my digestion
IN good order. and know of no better
investment business man can make"

A German scientist, having exam.
ined the contents of the stomachs OF
over 5, 600 crows, has determined the
character Of the crow diet and found
how largely this. is made up of farm
and garden products. Wheat, rye,
oats and barley we're present in per
cent ranging from 5 to s, together
with varying Quantities Of fruit and
garden vegetables. Grows fed on ex-
elusive vegetable diet died within a
short time, showing that they sbso-
lutely require animal food, which
normally constitutes about 80 per
cent of their food. The animals eaten,
included mice. insects, rabbits, pheas--
ants, small birds, frogs, snalls and
earth worms. The insects and other
animals destroyed were for the most
part injurious ones either, for agricul-
ture or forestry. and hence the author
considers the crows 50 be beneficial
birds. Various methods were tried to
prevent damage to crops by these
birds by treating seeds with such sub
stances as assafoetida and kerosene
without success.

4 Minimum Weight easoIins Engine.
Made by Prof. Barnes of Clemson.
5 4. p. and Weighs Only 200.

Clemson College, May 3o.-Soutt
Carolina, along with other southern
States, is making wonderful strides
along manufacturing lines. This
changed and changing condition ne
cessitates an adjustment of the educa-
tional system Of the State to the de-
mands Of the times. As the manu-
featuring industries expand and be-
come diversified trained men are need
ed TO fill the positions thus created.
Clemson college is striving TO keep
abreast Of the times. This correspond
ens paid visit to mechanical hall
and among many other interesting
facts, obtained the following from
Prof, Albert Barnes, who has just
completed gasoline engine Of novel
design. This motor is the result OF
numerous experiments extending Over
the past year. It is Of, the double
cylinder type, with an enclosed crank
case, protecting all moving parts from
dirt and foreign substances. In its
construction, only the highest grade
materials have been used, and By this
means the weight has been reduced,
SO that the engine, which is rated at 5
horse power, weighs only 200 pounds.
This light weight makes the engine
available for automobile services, for
small yachts, and for driving small
dynamos for lighting country homes.
These engines differ from steam en-
gines in that they have neither boiler
nor furnaces; but they utilize the gas
or gasoline in the cylinder itself.
This gas, properly mixed with air, is
drawn into the engine cylinder by the
piston and exploded by an electric
spark.
The energy of the explosion drives
the piston forward and produces
power.
The speed of the engine is under per-
feet control, and can be varied from
200 to 900 revolutions per minute.
With reference to the field Of use
fulness for the gasoline engine, Prof.
Barnes said "Since the discovery of
the Texas oil fields, the price of coal
has dropped over 20 per cent. This
is due to the fact that the products of
petroleum compete, not only with coal
as fuel, but also through the gaso-
line engine, with the steam engine as
a source of power. tits also interest
ing in this connection to note that the
gasoline engine in its imperfect state
has a higher efficiency than the best
steam engines of today. W hen we re-
member that the steam engine was in
vented over hundred years ago, and
that the gasoline engine is of compare
lively recent development, and has al
ready surpassed the steam engine in
the economy Of fuel, its importance in
not to be underestimate.
The gasoline engine is perfectly safe,
it requires no engineer, and when ad-
iusted for its work will run for hours
with little or no attention.
