Treatment of Consumption.

A series of experiments made by DR..
John F. Russell at the Post graduate Hos
pital, New York, have an important
bearing upon the question of the cura-
bility of consumption. The treatment
depends primarily on nutrition, and in
the feeding mixed fats and rare eggs
bear leadin place. Fresh air is also
prominent feature. The treatment was
for three years confined to patients in the
early stages of the disease, but last
March was thrown open to any person
with uncomplicated tuberculosis who
could visit the hospital twice a day and
pay for the food required, the medicine
being donated. OF twenty -four patients
who had four months treatment on Sep
TENDER I. ten were discharged as cured.
Those left at the close of last year show
ed great gain in weight, one to the ex-
tent of forty eight and one-half pounds,
and all had prospects of recovery. The
greatest difficulty was found with pa
TENTS who were too poor to buy the 1000
required. The experiments tend strong
Iy to show that the notion that consump-
tion is necessarily incurable must be
abandoned

DO ANIMALS WEEP?
(New York Press.)

Lady Burton says that she has seen
horses in the Syrian desert cry from
thirst mule cry from pain of an in
iured foot, and camel shed tears in
streams. Gordon Cummings declares
that he has observed tears in the eyes
of dying elephant and DR.. Livingston
used TO have a pet ape which cried when
the explorer would not take it in its
arms. Wounded apes have died crying,
and apes have wept over their young ones
slain by hunters. Sea lions are said to
cry over the loss of their young, and a
giraffe which had been injured by the
rifle of hunter began to cry. Another
explorer tells of a chimpanzee which had
been trained to carry water jugs. 1t let
one fall and break, and in its sorrow set
a-crying There seems to be little doubt
that animals do sometimes cry from pain,
sorrow or annoyance, but as a rule we
cannot catch the watch dog in tears, or
the family cat having a good cry"

One of the most prominent physicians
in attendance on the Tri-State Medical
Association, which has been in session
in Asheville this week, was DR.. Hubert
A. Royster, dean Of the newly establish
ed University Medical College at Raj
eigh.
Though yet a young man, DR. Roy
ster has won high rank in his profess
sion, being regarded as one of the best
practitioners and most successful sur
gical operators in the South today.
Touching the medical college estab-
lished by the University of North Caro-
lima at Raleigh, and at the head of which
he has been placed, DR. Register yes
terday said
1.-THE establishment by the University
of North Carolina Medical College in
Raleigh means great things for that city
and for the whole State OF North Caro-
lima, which is one of the
few States in the country which has
not large, well equipped med
ical college. For many years the Uuni-
versity has had at Chapel Hill an
excellent preparatory medical depart
ment-a two years course without di
plomas This school has a reputation
all over the United States and is most
thorough in it's teaching. This will still
be kept up: it will form the first two
years of the new college, the last two
years being in Raleigh, where the
students will be graduated after the
four years course. The advantages of
fered by the capital city are such as to
demand attention. With a population
of 10000, three hospitals, State chart
table institutions, it affords clinical ma
terial second to none in the State. Raj
eigh is already fast becoming the edu-
cational center of the commonwealth.
Prospects for the opening of the school
seem to be bright. 1t is believed that a
large percentage of the second year
students now at the University will en-
ter the new department at Raleigh, and
many letters Of inquiry are being daily
received from other sources. The ses-
sion will begin next September. A site
is being selected and quarters secured
with the hope of having a new building
in the near future. All the hospital and
clinical facilities will at once be increas-
ed. The citizens of Raleigh and all the
faculty of the new college there are en-
thusiastic over the coming of the insti-
tuition

rules of the Senate.
The conduct of the presiding officer of
the Senate in depriving the Senators OF
their constitutional rights, and the Presi-
dent of the United States in endorsing
and sanctioning the act of the presiding
officer, is to my mind, a far graver Of

were guilty of, and one that if permitted

did about going through the mazes of the

change for meat and bread for the folks
at home. Would he be where he is if he
had been reared in the lap of luxury, or

dudes are supposed to thrive? Well
hardly.

one who was softly reared. Oh, it is
mighty nice to have a plenty 70 every

doeth it, to go and he goeth, to stay and
he stayeth; but it has its penalty, and
that is to stay at the bottom of the panel

that the men who move things are they

Rich Women Doing Good

(Richmond Christian Advocate)
There are three notable philanthropists
Mrs. Stanford, Mrs. Hearst and Baroness
Burdett-Coutts The husband of the first
lady made his millions in ralroading in
California. There was one child, a son.
He died in youth. The parents erected
and endowed a University in California
named for him, LELAND Stanford, Jr.' 1t
commands millions. Mrs Hearst has one
child, son, owning papers in New York,
Chicago and San Francisco. She gave
four millions to the University of Cali
fornia. besides two hundred thousand for
school for girls, and many smaller
gifts. The Baroness Burdett-Coutts, of
London, has poured out millions for
charities. And now at eighty-seven she
continues her charities. Queen Victoria
made her peerless because of her care
for the poor. Nevertheless, there are
noble women without millions, with
scant resources who make personal sac
rifices for the good of others. A dollar
to q person with narrow means counts as
a million. The thin wafer of metal, 1.-The
widows mite, bears down the beam
more surely than the gold bar of the mil
lionaire.. We must remember that it
wrenches the soul of Shylock to give.
Therefore the miserly man ought to have
due credit. 1t hurts every nerve.
