Lettuce for Smallpox.

Medical Talk for March contains
the following brief article, in which
1t is claimed that 'lettuce Is an
absolute preventative of smallpox. ="
We reproduce the article for what
1t Is worth. Whether the assertions
made are correct or not, 1t will not
be doubted that the use of lettuce as
prescribed is conducive to health.
Here Is the article referred to-
Lettuce is an absolute preventa-
tive of smallpox. No one is in the
least particle Of danger of catching
smallpox who eats a lite lettuce
every day.
Smallpox belongs to the
scorbutic class of diseases. Sailors
at sea, deprived of fresh vegetables
get scurvy. Scurvy is typical
scorbutic disease. Smallpox is
another. Smallpox alway ragess ur-
ing the winter season when the poor
people are deprived of fresh vegetable
foods.
celery and onion are good for
this purpose, but theRe is such long
Interval between TN beihg esther
ed and being eaten that they lose
most of their anti-scrobutic proper
ties. Lettuce is served shortly after
1t Is picked and hence contains the
valuable properties which will pre-
vent smallpox.
"We say without the least hesita-
tion or reserve that lettuce will pre-
vent smallpox. IL is q thousand
times better than vaccination. II
has no liabilities like vaccination, to
produce other diseases. We are will
ing to stake our reputation on the
broad statement that anyone who
eats lettuce daily will not catch
smallpox, whether he be vaceinated OF
not.
1--WE hope that every reader who
has confidence in our statement will
pass this along. We wish every per
son OF know that they have within
reach a safe and reliable remedy.
The hot houses where lettuce Is raised
in the winter time are so numerous
that lettuce is placed within the
reach of all. No one need be de-
prived of lettuce simply because !,
Is winter.
Lettuce is an absolute specific al
preventative OF smallpox. All
fear of smallpox may vanish wher
this simple precaution is taken,
Should this remedy seem to fail il
any case we would be glad to be
notified. There has never been d
failure up OF date and we are anxious
to know if one should occur. W.
have absolute confidence in lettuce al
preventative of disease and do no,
hesitate to assure anyone that there
Is no danger of acquiring smallpox Sc
long as the system Is fortified against
1t by this natural and potent pre-
ventatiye."

M. |. A. Summer Class.

Last Monday evening the Young
Ladies' Mutual improvement Associ-
alton of this place began their regular
weekly summer class work, and as
has been the custom heretofore, they
met at the residence of one of their
members. They chose the home Of
Miller A. G. MathesoD, and at about
1880 we're to be seen 30 or 40 young
ladies vending their way towards
the mill with lunch baskets. Our
reporter, being anxious to know what
the meaning was. decided to investi-
gate. He went there and found all
of the young ladies seated in rows
upon the mill platform, enjoying a
dainty lunch and having hilarious
time. They we're all speaking at
once and upon subjects that he was
not familiar with, so he stood as one
petrified.
Finally they adjourned to the
house and opened their meeting, and
we must say il was extremely in
teresting. Each young lady had
with her some piece of sewing and
was industriously working while
some other member of the class was
giving her part of the lesson. which
was a study of poetry outlined by
the Young Ladies' Journal. Each
member taking part did exceptional
ly we'll. Their renditions proved
that they had given study to the sub
ject. After the completion of the
lesson each member was requested to
recite few lines of their favorite
poem aud tell why they liked it.
Our reporter thought he would be
RECALLED with number of poems on
love, but he was agreeably surprised,
for they quoted poems that are con
sidered classic and of the highest
order. They enjoyed themselves
immensely and decided to meet at
Mrs. Bulloch's next Monday for the
continuance of the lessons they are
engaged with.
One amusing circumstance was the
extremely excitable condition that
Miller Matheson was in just before
the arrival of the young ladies. He
no sooner saw the class coming
than he thought Of some
work that had to be attended to
Immediately in the Bull Dog field.
Hastily throwing lunch down
himself, despite ell the protestations
Of his wife and daughter, he left on
foot to attend to his imaginary
work. He left without bedding, and
really we do not know whether he
has stopped yet or not.
| Another thing that enlivened the
affair was the fact that The girls were
so surprised to see reporter in their
midst that they Immediately con :
ceived the idea of having lock of
his hair to remember him by. They
said 1t was the first time a reporter
had paid them visit and they were
determined to have some momento
of his first visit. Well, you know
now why he always wears his hat, even
In meeting.
