Rarhers, Shop piseaaea.

American Medicine: The transference
to his customers, by means of his hands
and Instruments, of many parasitic skin
diseases has long been recognized as one
of the unnecessary accomplishments of
the necessary barber Among these at
'fections are sycosis. impetigo. seborrheic
nlopecia and furunculosis that Is more
or less chronic in type. DR.. Graham
Chambers states that during the past FIVE
years impetigo circinata has been very
prevalent in Toronto, scarcely O month
passing without an outbreak of from two
to thirty cases, generally traceable to q
common source. The barber shop is SO
commonly the source that he designates
the disease as BARRIERS impetigo." Quite
recently DIR. w. A. Hardaway has called
attention to a point which he believes, and
we think rightly, has been but little. real
lied by the medical profession. That is
the frequency with which carbuneles are
acquired in barber shops. He has seen
many cases of carbuncle in which the
evidence Of this means OF transmission
was to him indisputable. The relative i'm
portance of this serious affection as COM
pared with the other diseases mentioned
needs scarcely to be impressed. For the
prevention Of contagion In barber shops,
Hardaway believes that we will be forced
to rely upon an educated public opinions
rather than upon compulsory laws direct
ed against the barber. He recommends
that each patron OF a barber shop pro-
vide himself with a box. containing his
own brush and comb. a small package of
absorbent cotton ana a per cent. car
bolic acid solution. The barber will then
wipe his shears or clippers with the solu--
ton, and use the patrons comb and
brush. For the man who shaves, his own
soap. cup and brush are necessities. These
suggestions are sensible. To carry them
out properly means some inconvenience,
but 1t is worth while, especially to the
aged and debilitated, or to those suffering
from diabetes or similar diathesis. Physi-
clans attending such patients should ex-
tend othem warming in this regard.

Des Moines. Ia, May 17.--State Labo.
Commissioner Brigham has In his mind
to make an effort this summer to Sc
cure employment for such Iowa college
students as care to go into the harvest
fields of the west. When the work OF
the committee of the western labor
commissioners named for that purpose
has secured from the railroads the low
rates asked for the benefit of the har
vesters of the west, Commissioner
Brigham expects to take up the work
Of interesting college students in this
work. Last year millions of bushels
of grain went to waste for want of
men to harvest it in Oklahoma, Nebras-
and South Dakota. Wages went up to
whatever figure was asked by the har-
vest hands. 1t was the most lucrative
employment furnished during the en-
tire summer for collegians seeking
means during the vacation of keeping
themselves in school during the re-
mainder Of the year. Indeed, so pros
porous We're the harvesters that many
of the eastern colleges sent delegations
into the western wheat fields and they
took away with them more golden
money than the farmers often got for
their golden grain at market time. 1t
II the idea of the labor commissioner
chat the Iowa college students should
n chance to go into the fields this sum-
mer. To this end, after the preliminary
arrangements have all been made, Mr..
Brigham will make 1T point to let the
college students of the state know
about the work, which will keep $4,000
men constantly employed during all of
the harvest season.

the Washington Post. Almost since the
supply in little round wooden boxes.
Matches in these boxes have been for
years kept about the capitol. When,
in Mr. Hoar's committee room, some
one asked for matches, the senator
would remark: why. we have barrels
OF Matches and forthwith, at the ut
terance OF the bon mot, round box
would be produced.
Now the purchasing agent of the SEN
ate has decided to buy matches in the
usual paper boxes, with which the gen.
eral public is familiar. That is consid-
erably less expensive, but 1t puts an end
to barrels of matches in the senate
