IN MEDICAL PRACTICE.

BY means of the leprolin serum, a
temporary cure has been effected in a
number of cases under the care of the

French doctor in the Japanese Red

The publication Of the water sup
ply of Chicago and the improvement OF
the drainage system of that city have

great as it is now.
According to DR.. r. l.. Macdonald,
the prosperous and strenuous mental
life, combined with gorging, explains
the frequency of Bright's disease in
nigh official circles at Washington. He
says that overeating is the germ OF
nephritis. Mental activity and physi-
cal quiescence aid in it's production and
carl1ing care and worry are also causa-
tive factors. Bright's disease is
prone to attack the intellectual and
the anxious. Alcohol, he thinks, is
not as potent a cause as is generally
believed.
A rubber film glove has been de-
vised for surgeons. The gloves are
put on" by immersing the hands in a
weak solution of gutta percha in BEN
zine or acetone. The purpose of the
film is to seal the surfaces of the hands
with an insoluble, imperyious and
practically imperceptible pellicle, which
will not admit blood, pus or secretiqns.
Such a protective measure for sur
geons is said to be preferable to work
ing with rubber gloves, inasmuch as
the sense of touch or pliability OF the
skin is not impaired in any way.

CHANGED HUSBAND.
Wife Made Wise Change in Food


Change of diet is the only way to
really cure stomach and bowel trouble.
A woman says:
"My husband had dyspepsia when
we were married and had suffered
from it for several years. 1t was al
most impossible to find anything he
could eat without bad results.
II thought this was largely due to
the use of coffee and persuaded him
to discontinue it. He did so, and be-
gan to drink Postum Food Coffee. The
change did him good from the begin
ming, his digestion improved; he suf'
fered much less from his nervousness
and when he added GrapeNuts food
to his diet he was soon entirely cured
"My friend, Mrs. - -, OF Vicks
burg (my former honle), had become
nervous wreck also from dyspepsia
Medicines had no effect, neither die
travel help her. On my last visit
home, some months ago, persuaded
her to use Grape-Nuts food. She was
in despair, and consented. She stuck
to it until it restored her health ~
completely that she is now the Esost
enthusiastic friend of Grape-Nuts that
ever knew. She eats it with cream
or dry, just as it comes from the pack
age-keeps it in her room and eats i
whenever she feels like it.
Il began eating Gre pe-Nuts food,
myself, when my baby was two
months old, and don't know what
ghould have done without it. MY ap-
petite was gone, was weak and EerV-
GUS and afforded gut very little nour'
ishment for the child. The Grape
Nuts food, of which I soon grew very
fond, speedily set all this right again,
and the baby grew healthful, rosy ana
beautiful as a mother could wish. he
is two years old now and eats Grape
Nuts food himself. wish every tired
young mother knew of the good tnat
Crane Nuts would do her."

COSTLY ANGER.
Union County Farmer Finds
Revenge Expensive.
He Pays $4,000 in Damages In
Guiding Fine for Shoot
ing a Teacher.

Morganfeld, KY, Mar. 25. Jam es
Fletcher, the farmer who shot Claude
Buchanan because the latter whipped
his daughter while she attended 1.-THE
school taught by Buchanan last
spring, was fined S4OO in the circuit
court here to-day. Fletcher's free
use of his gun has Icost him about
$500.
At the last meeting of the court
Buchanan secured a judgment of
81, 800 against Fletcher for personal
injuries. The judgment was COM
promised by Fletcher paying over
81 $50 to the schoolteacher.
Last spring Buchanan was teaching
a country school in this county and
two daughters of Fletcher were
among his pupils. He found it
necessary to use corporal punishment
on one of them to maintain order.
After feeling the sting of the birch
the girl with her sister left the
school and went home. They told
their father and he was so infuriat-
ed that he at once went to the school
house. In the quarrel Buchanan
was shot in the face by Fletcher.
The farmer was indicted. Buch-
anan filed a suit for $4,000 damages
against Fletcher and the farmer and
his daughter filed counter suits for
damages against the teacher.
One of Fletcher's attorneys stated
to-day that the shooting and law
suits with the fine to-day had cost
the farmer in the neighborhood of
$500.
