A GOOD REMEDY.
1t Is Being Used as Preventative and Cure for Dph.
liberia, Smallpox and Scarlet Fever.

This being the season for epidemics
of contagious diseases such as diph-
| theria scarlet fever and smallpox the
| following preventative remedy and
cure of those diseases used extensively
by the nuns of st. Joseph at Philadel-
phia and first published by the New
York Times, may be worthy a trial or
at least investigation by competent
physicians. Great claims are being
made for the simple remedy in Phila-
| delphia, in which city smallpox Is at
present making great ravages and it is
asserted that not in a single case has
| the remedy failed to do what is claim
ed for it. OF course, in no case, should
the service of a physician be dispensed
with nor the remedy taken without
consulting him. The recipe is known
as the Sister Mary Gonzaga cure and
is being peddled about in Philadelphia
at ten cents a bottle. 1t is as follows:
Sulphate of zinc, 1 gr.; solid ext. digita-
lis. / gr; 1-2 teaspoonful sugar; mix
all with two tablespoonfuls of water;
when thoroughly mixed add 4 ounces
of water; take teaspoonful every
hour for IL hours For a young child di-
minish the dose. This remedy will
cure scarlet fever as well as smallpoX
and diphtheria.
The digitalis and the zinc should be
dissolved separately before compound
ing the prescription. 1t is also Of ut
most Importance, the nuns say, that
the solid extract of digitalis be used.
Some druggists say there Is no such
thing, and use the liquid preparation.
This Is by no means the same, and
medicine so prepared becomes value
less.
The digitalis in this medicine is given
to kill any germs of contagious disease
that may be in the system. The zinc
purifies the blood. Some doctors have
objected to the digitalis because 1t acts
upon the heart; and the nuns explain
that of course the medicine must be
taken with care, as the drug Is power
full. If it We're not, the preparation
would not be so quick and so certain in
it's results.
Some people complain to the nuns
that the medicine makes them i'll. This
is argued as proof that their systems
are in bad condition and they are
liable to take the disease from which it
would protect them.
The proper dose of the medicine for
an adult Is one teaspoonful every hour
for II consecutive hours. An infant
should be given only ten drops for the
same length of time. For children un-
Ter ten years of age. one-half teaspoon
full hourly for 12 hours, is the correct
quantity. In the convent, this treat
nent is repeated, In every case, once
4 month while smallpox is epidemic.

WATCH THE SMALL CHANGE.

Larger Pieces.

ibid you ever think how little atten-
ton you pay to the possibility of couR-
terfeits in making changer" asked an
old bank teller of friend, relates the
Chicago Tribune. "And did you ever
think that most of the attention that
is paid to it by the public is so much
waste of effort?''
But it is a fact. You never think
when the street car conductor puts
the change from a quarter in your
hand that both dimes may be counter
felt. You take one-dollar, two-dollar,
five-doilar and ten-doilar bills from
anybody in change without ever a
thought as to their genuineness. But
if a stranger tries to pass a $40 bill on
you you begin to get shaky, while $50
or 500 bill is almost impossible to be
rid of in a street of small shops.
"Yet you could hardly hire a counter
feiter to try to make and pass bills
above ten dollars in value. If stran-
ger should come into your place Of
business and ask change for $50 bill
it would scare you stiff for fear of a
counterfeit, whereas the chances
would be 9991l in 900 that the bill was
good.
You noticed the other day, on the
other hand, that the United States gov
eminent was much concerned over the
counterfeit One-eent pieces that are
now flooding Chicago. Yet I'll bet you
never looked at the genuineness of a
one-cent piece in your life"

THUMB-MARK AS A SEAL.
Has been Used In China and Else
where in AttestatiOn of Legal
Documents.

An army officer in Arizona used to
make his orders for payment on a
camp sutler, and use his own thumb
mark to serve the same purpose as the
elaborate markings on bank checks.
The thumb-mark has been used in
China and elsewhere in attestatiOn Of
deeds. Sir William Herschel intro
duced finger marks for practical pur-
poses in several ways in India. He had
heard that Chinese criminals in early
times were made to give the impress
sions of their fingers just as the GRIM
inals of this country are now photo
graphed. In Egypt the criminals were
made to seal their confessions with
their thumbnails, as the country serv-
ant girls used to seal their letters. Ac-
cordingly Sir William adopted the reg
istration of finger markings for pen
sioners. He suspected that Others
