Typhoid Fever and OYSTERS.

In the discussion of the oyster as q
means of communicating the germs OF
typhoid fever in Europe and in the
United States, many inaccurate state
ments have been put in circulation, so
that the Government has deemed it
necessary to have the matter inves-
tigated by an expert commission in Or
der to avoid any possible damage to
the oyster industry. The report of this
body states that under normal condi-
tons the oyster is not unwholesome at
any time during the year and that its
peculiar microbian diseases, which are
exceedingly rare, are not transmissible
to man. wild" oysters, although not
always fit for food, are free from con-
tamination and do not endanger pub
lie health, while those raised or fat
tened in beds are usually free from
suspicion. : 10 transmission of ty-
phoid by oysters is possible, yet we'll
authenticated cases of such action are
in the beds where the oysters are kept
before transportation, the caring for
them during transportation, and finally
the shops Of the retail dealers. 1t is
believed that the connection between
typhoid fever and the eating Of oysters
is due largely to the fact that indulg-
ence in this form of sheli-fsh begins
at the time when there is a maximum
number of typhoid cases, and the mat
ter is one of coincidence rather than
cause and effect.-Harper's Weekly.

A Chat With Housekeepers.

Burn pine tar occasionally in a sick
room. 1t is an excellent disinfectant,
and it also induces sleep.
A good furniture polish consists Of
two parts Of raw linseed oil and one
OF turpentine. Apply a thin coat with
a flannel cloth and then rub thoroughly
and briskly with a dry cloth. ;
Some housekeepers always make a
point Of buying their soap in large
quantities, as they say it improves with
age. .
When blankets are to be washed for
the first time they should first be
soaked yer night in cold water and
then rinsed. This is to remove the sui
phur used in the bleaching. After this
they should be soused until clear in a.
lukewarm lather made with boiled
soap and water and then rinsed we'll in
clear water.
1t is literally true that a new broom
sweeps clean. If a new broom is exam
ined, the ends of the straws will be
found to be straight and the brush
square. After it has been used a while
the ends split and become sharp, and
the shape of the brush becomes irreg-,
ular. To renew the youth of the broom!
dip in hot soapsuds and trim the soft
ened straws to the proper shape.

Temperance TOPICS.

Medical science is more and more dis
POSED to Cschew the use OF alcohol in
the treatment Of disease, because other
remedies. most of them poisons, are
safer and more effective.
Drunkenness is on the increase in
Russia. During the past twelve
months the quantity of vodka and
other spirituous liquors sold at the
State establishments was greater than
in the previous year by % per cent,
while the quantity sold in hotels and
other places showed an increase or IL
per cent.
Following closely OF the whisky fl.
talities in New York and the revel:-
tons of bad liquor made there, DR.. H.
w. Wiley. chief Of the Government bH.
reau Of chemistry, has expressed the
opinion that fully eishty-tive per cent
of all the whisky sold in this country,
in hotel restaurants. clubs and bars, Is
nothing less than a cheap imitation.
According t 0 a decision of the Su,
preme Court of Georgia, druggists
must not violate the local option laws

Hard Bed and Small Pillow.

mo matter how comfortable a soft
bed and large, soft pillows may be-;
said DR.. A. S. Barnes, Jr., they are
not healthy, and women especially
would do we'll to avoid them. for they
assist materially in injuring her physi-..
cal appearance. When the body sinks
down in a soft bed q considerable por-
ton Of the skin is robbed Of its proper.
ventilation. and the circulation is in.
terfered with. 1t also helps to make,
the flesh frmer and the form must!
therefore, appear somewhat better as
a result. The large pillows are not
good to sleep on because tie head is
too high when it rests on them, and
this prevents that deep. regular.
breathing which gives good lungs and
in consequence a better appearance to
the bust and shoulders. /,
One ought always to sleep on the left
side, and preferably with the arms at
the back. This may be a little awk-
ward at first, but as soon as n be-
comes accustomed to it he will find it
not only the most restfui and easy, but
the position in which sleep is more
easily conduced. The pillow ought to,
of course, be small and the bed hard,
or at least firm. The body is then in
the correct position for sleeping and
for helping the physical appearance Of
the person while at rest. The arms at
the back throw the chest forward,
make the shoulders broader and the
back straighter, so that material as.
sistance toward a good carriage is thus
obtained. When one lies. on his bacE,
even though the pillow is small, it has
a tendency to crook the shoulders, and
many cases Of stopped shoulders have
probably originated in this Way.--St.
Louis Globe Democrat.

Just Kindle q Fire.

A minister complained to M OF his
parishioners that he had tried in many
ways to draw people to his church
services, but with limited success.
And he said, "Can you suggest any
better plan?" YES" was the reply.
"You know that a fire always attracts
a crowd. So you just kindle a fire in
your pulpit and the house will be
full" The minister thought he was
Joking, and was about to rebuke his
lrreverence, when he went On to say:
Haven't you read how Peter drew a
crowd in Jerusalem on the day Of Pen
tecost? He was not a learned nor an
eloquent man, but he went into the
street with the fire in his heart, and
flashing, no doubt, from his eyes-the
fire which had come down from
Heaven in the upper room. He was all
aglow with the conscious presence and
power of the holy Spirit, and hence
it was that the multitude came to-
gether, and that 5000 of them were con.
verted. Let it be noised abroad that
your pulpit is ablaze with that Pente-
costal fire and m%ultitndes will come to
hear you and many Of them will be
saved"

of which are good for silk-worms. 1t
is said that 10000 acres that would
otherwise be taken up with fences are
thus used.-Philadelphia Ledger.

HIS UNTInELY END
Death of Charles Sterner at 9 O'clock
 Last Night.

Charles $. Sterner died last night at 9 o'clock at the family residence, num-
 Der 434 North First avenue. after a lingering illness. He had been a resi-
 dent of Phoenix for eight or nine years
 coming here from Chicago, and Illinois
 being his native state. Though he
 came here in the belief that this clim- ate was more adapted to his needs
 than the rigorous weather of Chicago he was never considered other than a
 man of good health until a little less
 than a year ago. He was taken quite
 til then of a fever and complications
 that resulted in an affection of the lungs. For a time he recovered sui ficiently to attend to business again
 but it was not for long and for the last three months he has been confined very closely to his home. He leaves a
 wife and five year old son, Robert to
 mourn his death. A sister of Mrs. Sterner also lives with the family and is with her in her hour of bereavement. Mir Sterner when he first came here
 was employed at the Hotel Adams. later being employed for a long time by r. w. Butler in the Wellington bar room. Still later he formed a business
 arrangement with J. C. Adams and as- sumed the management of the Hotel Adams bar, billiard and pool rooms and bowling alleys

 always ready to do his part in any
