eu DeIore an advanced stage renders
recovery uncertain. Most of the recent
deaths among the hundred odd birds
have been due to accidents or OCCASION
al cats.
Colds are very common ailments
among the birds, and if these are not
attended to often lead to roup and
diphtheria. Sometimes the latter dis
ease appears in bird almost without
warning \ very little thickening Of
the third eyelid in hawk may be the
only outward sign that its throat is in
a very bad diphtheritic condition. Ma
laria has been detected several times.
and, curiously enough, in herons and
other wading birds whose ordinary
mode of life, one would think, would
long ago have eliminated all birds dis
posed toward such a disease. Flamin-
goes spend much of their time standing
or walking in water, ana yet they are
extremely liable when confined in
damp places to contract rheumatism
This and similar complaints often
yield to a treatment of quinine alone.

effect on it.
Canker is fortunately very rare. but
the gaDes, caused by tiny worms in
the throat and trachea. is more COM +,
mon. Instead of ramming an oiled
feather down the poor creatures

cure is to let the bird inhale the fumes
of carbOlic acid. and a very few
sneezes will dislodge the troublesome /
worms. Parrots in two or three in
stances have had a peculiar disease.
and by accident it was found that if
the bird was kept continually in the
glaring sunshine it recovered. Whetb-

Death of Mrs. VIM. Waner.

On Friday last occurred the death
of Mrs. William Waner, after a
protracted sickness of cancer OF
of the stomach. Although death
was expected for several days,
vet when it came the town was
stilled with the shock and sympa-
thy. Mrs. Waner had been III
for some time, but a month ago
got rapidly better, and her hus-
band and friends were very much
encouraged that the worst had
passed, but in the last two weeks
her aff1iction took a turn for the
worse, and upon examination by
board of physicians, they dia-
gnosed the malady as cancer of this
stomach, and that there was no
hope for her recovery. She bore
her fate with resigned fortitude
and passed peacefully into rest.
Mrs. Waner was one of Logan S
excellent women; quiet, gentle,
peaceful, friendly. She was a
good neighbor and a good wife,
and her bereaved husband has a
host of sympathic friends to help
sustain him in this affection.
Mary E. Weislogel was born in
Chillicothe, September 11th, 1851,
died in Logan, March Goth, 1904.
On June 18th, 1873 she was mar
ried to VIM. Waner, and for many
years they have been citizens OF
Logan. The deceased leaves no
childred, they having died in in
fancy. She was an honored mem
ber of the Degree of Pocohon Jas
of Logan, whom performed their
last sad rites at the funeral. The
burial took place at Chillicothe,
her old home.

FLIES SPREAD DISEASE.
Why IT Is Important to Keep the HIT
tie Insects Away from All
Food Supplies.

In a paper written in 1900 by DR..
L. o. Howard, chief of the division of
entomology at Washington, on "The
Insect Fauna Of Human Excrement,
with Special Reference to the Spread
of Typhoid Fever by Flies" it was
shown that out of 27,087 flies which
had been caught in different parts of
the country in rooms where food was
exposed, as would ordinarily be the
case in a kitchen or dining room,
more than SO per cent. of the insects
so taken were ordinary house flies.
House flies breed to very large ex-
tent in horse manure, but they are
very often attracted and frequently
develop in human excrement. An in.
dividual fly lays Oh an average of
about 120 eggs, which in few hours
hatch into larvae, or "maggots," and
after another transformation at the
end of ten days eventually become
full-grown adult insects.
When we consider these facts, it is
not to be wondered at that typhoid
fever often prevails in the country,
especially when we consider the I'M
sanitary system SO often in use for
the disposition of human excrement,
Under these conditions every oppor-

RAIN AS A PURIFIER.
Long Held by American
Scientists Proved by Recent
Health Tests in London.

The health department has often
called the attention of the public to
the fact that rain is a great purifier.
and there is some highly interesting
testimony to the same effect in re-
cent number of the London Lancet,
which is fortified by references to a
recent examination and analysis.
Beginning with June Is London had
a continuous rainfall for five days, the
total precipitation being estimated at
3.8 inches. On the third day of the
period supply of raindrops was Sc
cured for an investigation, and it was
found that the solid matters contained
therein amounted to 81 grains per
gallon. Among the constituents noted
were common SALT ammonium sui
plate, organic ammonia, SCOT ard sus-
pended matters and nitrates The
Lancet assures us that the quantity Of
ammonia sulphate, .651 grains, was re-
markable, and that it's chief origin is
the combustion of coal Salt con-
trobuted 8 grains and SCOT and sus-
pended matter grains With this
analysis and an estimate of 6,437 ,229,-
$50 gallons for the total rainfall over
the London country area as the basis
of the calculation, it is figured that the
enormous downpcur represents the
washing out Of no less than 3,738 tons
of solid impurities, of which $50 tons
consisted of common salt, 267 tons of
sulphate of ammonia, and 1000 tons
of SCOT and suspended matters" An
other interesting computation is given
as follows: Regarding the combus-
ton of one ton of coal to produce 20
pounds of ammonium sulphate Ga very
fair average) the quantity Of coal rep
resented by the storm would be 29,9O4
TONS
The Lancet adds that besides the
publication which is shown by the
analysis there is a meteorological puri-
fcation also, which of course is a very
important factor in the benefcent
work of the rain.-Chicago Record

Body Acts as Magnet.

Prof. Murani, a distinguished italian
scientist, says that certain persons pos
sess a strange magnetic or electric in
f1uence, which produces curious results.
A few days ago while at work on some
electrical experiment, one of his friends
suddenly entered the room, and at the
same moment heneedle Of his galvanom-
eter moved to and fro very rapidly.
He was sure that his friend had in one
of his pockets either magnet or some
other electrical instrument, and in or
der to convince him that he was mis-
taken his friend removed all his clothes
