wrapping paper with butter lard, or
sweet oil and then rub little mustard
over it, but not sufficient to make an ap-
preciable coating. This may be worn q
long time without any injurious effect
upon the skin.
By expression a bland oil is obtained
from mustard which resembles cotton
seed oil and by distillation g very acrfd,
irritant oil is obtained, to which mus
tard owes its counter irritant qualities.
This is too powerful to apply to the skin
in an undiluted form, but mixed with al
cohol in the proportion Of one part to
forty-nine it makes spirit of mustard,
which is an excellent counter irritant
where quick action is required. A few
drops Of this rubbed along the tract of an
aching nerve in neuralgia will sometimes
give almost instantaneous relief, and
some years ago it was sold for this pur-
pose under the name of liquid lightning
The essential or volatile oil of mustard
also enters into the composition of COM
pound mustard IMMINENT useful in rheu-
matism and other affections where
counter irritant is indicated.
Now, for a few uses of mustard as
counter irritant. In pain in the sides,

conditions mustard paper or poultices APP.

or apply it to a person who is insensibIe
without carefully watching the effect. In
congestion of the brain and in apoplexy
mustard applied in the same way is use
ful Mustard foot baths as already stat
ed, are good as revulsants in recent
colds, sIeeplessness, headache and ths
like.
Nor is mustard confined in its uses to
poultices. Obstinate hiccough will some
times be relieved by an infusion Of mus
tard, made by sleeping teaspoonful of
mustard in four ounces of boiling water
for twenty minutes and straining TWEEN
ty-four drops of the essential oil of mus
tard dissolved in an ounce of alcohol IN
doses Of from three to FIVE drops. is
sometimes of value in chronic catarrh OF
the stomach or in bronchial catarrh
There are cases in which a person can
not endure mustard either as a condi
ment or as an external application. and
if one says that he or she cannot use
mustard it should not be set down as
whirn, as it is probably founded on fact.
But this need not exclude the use of
counter irritants.
AS a substitute for mustard red pep-
per may be sued the best way being to
sprinkle a few drops of the tincture of
capsieum upon warm flannel Capsicum
paper may be made by soaking slips Of
blotting paper in tincture Of capsicum
several times, allowing it to dry be-
tween each dipping and applying it
warm and wet over the parts holding
it IN place by a strip of cloth placed over
it. This viii irritate the skin, but sell

Medical Notes.

One of the chief agents in infamma-
tion of any organ or part of the body is
a congestion in that part. This may be
more readily understood if we compare a
blood vessel to a street and the blood
corpuscles to people in the street Disease
is, in a sense, an accident When an ac-
cident occurs in the street a crowd i'm
mediately collects; the street becomes
congested; perhaps entirely impossible to
traffic, and the police are called to dis
perse the crowd or possibly they turn the
tide of traffic into other byways that the
obstructed street may be cleared. This is,
comparatively speaking, what the ply
stefan attempts to do in many cases by
the use of revulsives; that is, agents that
tear away an obstructive factor from
a congested part, or by derivatives; that
is, remedies that bear things away from
the river (Latin, rivus). In another light
congestion may be compared to a riot,
and it is the attempt of the physician to
divert the attention of the mob of blood
corpuscles crowded together in one place
to another. Thus. if fire occurs, the
crowd that collects is quickly drawn
away from it if a greater fire occurs in a
remote district Inflammation is In
sense, a fire; in fact the word means to
set on fire. or into flame, and by counter
irritation or Inflammation the physician
attempts to set a greater fire in another
district, which shall divert the rioting
blood corpuscles from one place to an
other, and by dividing their destructive
work render the damage less.
The popular and perhaps only idea of
a counter irritant in many cases is a
mustard pouluce, a good thing in it's
place. but too often used too indiscrim-
inately, in conditions when a bran poul-
tice would be more beneficial. AS a rule
counter irritation should be used only at
the onset of an infiammatory condition.
to abort it, or at the end to favor resolu-
ton. but it is often used when infam-
nation is at its height, and sometimes
directly over an infiamed surface, both
being injurious, as it is simply adding
fire to fire. In practice a counter irritant
should never be applied directly over an
Unnamed surface. but at one side, or even
more remote, for reYulsives can exert
an action at great distance. A COM
mon example of this is the use of mus
tard foot baths cases of congestive
headache; tablespoonful or less of pow
dered mustard being put into painful
of hot water and the feet soaked in this
for short time, the result being that
the blood is drawn from the head to the
feet, where it can do less harm, and
thus relieves the brain from its over

PANAMA OR NICARAGUA?

The Panama route is just now hav-
ing it's innings before Congress with
apparently good chances Of success.
Admiral Walker has always been in
favor OF the route though he has also
very carefully examined the Nicaragua
route. 1t was the fault Of the Panama
people themselves that they did not
get a favorable report in the first in
stance. 1t was impossible TO reach d
definite figure The moment that they
came out with a definite figure AG-
the commission save one, decided for
the Panama route.
Upon the subject of canals the COM
mission, which has now been at work
for quite a number of years, has prob
ably the most accurate of knowledge.
Every ship canal of the old and the
new world has been thoroughly studied,
both theoretically and practically. In
point of fact what the commission does
not know about canals is not worth
knowing.
The Panama route is very much
shorter, which is a main point Of ad-
vantage The curves are fewer and not
nearly so sharp as on the proposed
route through Nicaragua, and then
there is so much work already done.
With American energy and American
skill the Panama canal route might be
realized as a commercial success with
in the life time of most of the present
generation.

.COLONIzING SOUTHWEST.
RAILROAD COMPANIES INDUCING MMI-
GRAFTON TO ARKANSAS AND TEXAS.
Cheap Lands Wheron Cattle Raising,
- Fruit, and Truck Growing are
Highly Profitable.

An unusual effort is being made
by the railroad companies with lines
running into the Southwest to induce
greater immigration to that section
than ever before. The opportunities
offered the farmer, stock raiser and
truck aud fruit grower in portions OF
Arkansas and Texas are perhaps not
surpassed anywhere in the wide
world.
Along the Cotton Belt Route in
Southwest Arkansas are large tracts
| of land from which the timber has
been cut-by saw mill companies which
may be cleared and made into excel
ieat farms. This land can be pur-
| chased for 81 to $5 per acre. Il
makes good pasture land for cattle
| aud sheep, and much Of it will pro
duce. au average crop of cotton, or
will grow immense crops of veg.ta'
bles of all descriptions,
So prolific are the yields of pota
toes, onions, cabbage, melons, toma-
toes, pears, peaches aud, in fact,
nearly every kind of vegetable aud
fruit, that truck growers associa-
tiops are forming at many points.
The Cotton Belt Is actively assisting
these associations by granting special
rates and otherwise aiding in secur
ing fact of much Importance that
wherever truck growing has been
entered into the prices of lands have
Immediately begun to advance.
In order to encourage this and
kindred Industries along their lines
Southwestern railroads have put
Ito effect very low round trip Home
seekers rates of one way fare plus
-, aud one way Colonist rates of
half the one way fare plus 81, from
such points as St. Louis, Cairo and
Memphis to Arkansas, Louisiana and
Texas, on the first AMI third Tues
days of each mouth, enabling home
seekers TO visit the country for the
purpose of looking around or to 10
cate.
The Cotton Belt Route, through
its general Passenger Department at
St Louis, has taken leading part

Of this splendid country and volun

sentatives for the past two years, and
made fine impression on that body.
Mr.. Doninick has some noble traits of

mired by everybody is his frmness. He
is honest and has the courage Of his
convictions, and is true to what he con-
ceives to be right. If the legislature
is looking for high-toned gentleman,
who will prove himself highly accep-
table in this position, there is no need
of looking further then Mr.. Dominick.

lips Church on Christmas Day at II
a. m.
There has been quite change in the
temperature. Last Saturday it was as
warm and pleasant as summers day.
But on Sunday the wind changed from
the southwest to the northeast, and it
almost made us feel like a chill had
struck US. But the works of Nature
are as right >as they can be. The spell
/ of cold has come to give the people a
chance to butcher their Christmas
hogs.
Notwithstanding the chilling wind,
we went over and worshipped with the
good people of St. Phillips on Sunday.
Rev. Mr.. Derrick is full of good ser
mons. The subject he used on this oc-
casion was one which especially church
people should ponder: '.No man can
serve two masters. - No, dear friends,
there is no such thing as wearing two
sets of harness at the same time, one
for God and one for the devil. You
must pull off one or the other.
After preaching, we went over and
spent the evening with'o friends, MIR.
M. L. Wicker and DR.. W. T. Diekert,
who live almost in the same yard. We
certainly enjoyed the hospitality of
these kind people. If you don't believe
Mr.. Wicker is fulfil entitledto the honor

his house and let your eyes be the

all other field crops he has on hand
shows that he is not only farmer by

and we need more such scattered all
