A SCARLET FEVER CURE.
Big Success Claimed foS Remedy
by DR.. Luhan..

A new treatment for scarlet fever
which, he says, has had a long series
Of victories and no failures in its strug-
giles with the disease for nearly eight
years, is now offered as a free Sclen-
tific contribution to the medical profes-
sion by DR.. J. +. c. Luhan, of East
Seyenty-second street, y. y. Noticing
that most deaths from the disease
were the result Of paralysis Of the
heart, he devised a treatment for the
blood and for the kidneys which pre-
vents anaemia-or destruction of the
red blood corpuscles-and also prevents
kidney complications.
The physician in speaking OF his
treatment, said:
''As to my treatment. The germs Of
scarlet fever diminish the red blood
corpuscles. Anaemia next sets in
through the poverty OF the blood, and
paralysis OF the heart follows. Ny
treatment Is curative and eliminative.
In the first four days OF the disease,
prescription No. l increases the iron
in the red blood without impairing
the function of the kidneys. The
ingredients of No. l. and also another
substance. acts on the kidneys In such
way as to cause the red corpuscles
which have been destroyed by the dis
ease germs TO be eliminated from the
blood. Often these dead cnrnuscles
cause congestion in the interior mech
anism of the kidneys, which turns into
BriGht's disease. The extra oxygen in
the blood prevents paralysis of the
heart, which is due TO the presence in
the blood of carbon monoNide.

dences OF the disease appear. the pat

WHISTLES TOO NOISY.

TURBlNCE OF SICK.
Mrs. Isaac L. Rice, a Wealthy New
Yorker, States that Half of the
Vast aubbub Raised By Boat
Whistles Is Useless.

Mrs. Isaac l.. Rice is one OF the
few rich and influential women of
New York who is constantly looking
after the needs and comfort of those
less fortunate in the awarding OF
the worlds goods than herself.
Mrs. Rice is a philanthropic woman
who has never permitted her wealth
and comfortable surroundings TO
blind her to the want and suffering
around her and has recently been
making a strong effort to have at
least one nuisance abated-a nuisance
in one sense and a menace TO many
lives.
This is the constant and, as Mrs.
Rice declares. the unnecessary blow,
ing OF whistles and signals in New
York harbor. Night and day these
car splitting whistles and sirens can
be heard for distance OF thirteen
and a half miles over the city and
through careful investigation Mrs
Rice has found that hundreds OF In
valids in hospitals and nervous wo-
men in homes are driven almost to
distraction.
From her palatial home in New
York's most exclusive resident section
Riverside Drive-Mrs. Rice has
gone forth TO investigate this and
see II there were not some means by
which the sufferings of the poor and
invalid people might be relieved.
She first took her case to the au.
thorIties In New York who told her
any remedial measures were without
their jurisdiction and that she must
make an appeal TO Washington.
Leaving her handsome home In
New York Mrs. Rice went 10 Washing
ton and laid the matter before the
Department OF Commerce and Labor.
She told the officials OF the depart
ment OF the 1900 sick people in
New York whose suffering was made
two fold by this unnecessary noise;
she told how nervous men and women
were unable to get sleep because of
the continual. piercing shrieks of the
river boats and she told them. too.
how river men themselves had said

Bourke Cochran, of New York, who
has introduced constitutional amend
ment making the term of office OF
member of the House four years, in
stead of two years, as at present, be-
lieves that such a change from exist
ing conditions would be all that is es-
sential to establish the predominenee
of the House over the Senate, II the
House only saw fit to exercise the
power lodged in it by the Constitu-
ton.
Discussing the subject recently, Mr..
Cochran said:
There is but one change, one
amendment, that, in my judgment,
could possibly increase the conse-
quence or capacity of the House to de-
fend itself, and that will be simply the
question of the term of a member.

at present constituted, where MEM

THE CARPENTERS SQUARE.
History of Its Invention and Manu-.

Carpenters who use the common
steel square, very necessary ad-
junct to their trade, perhaps give lit
tie thought to how, when and where
this article was first produced. While
there are millions Of squares manu-.
factured and used annually. all over
the world, when the nineteenth cen
tury was born there was not one in eX-
istence.
One dull. rainy day, Siler Howes. n
poor Vermont blacksmith. who lived N
South SALISBURY, was called upon by
a peddler of tinware to shoe horse.
These peddlers travelled up and down
the country calling at every farm
house, buying everything in the way of
barter. This one had a number OF
worn out steel saws that he had picked
UP at various places. Howes bargain
ed for them, shoeing the peddler's
horse and receiving the saws in pay
ment. and each thought he had an ex.
cellent trade.
The blacksmith's idea was 20 polish
and weld two saws together, at right
angles thus making n rule or measure
superior to anything then in use. After
few attempts he succeeded In making
a square, marked It off into inches and
fractions Of inches and found that It
answered every purpose that he in
tended II for.
In the course OF few weeks during
his spare hours he made a number of
these squares. which he sent out by
peddlers, who found every carpenter
anxious to buy one. Soon he had or
ders coming in faster than he could
supply the demand. One of his steel
squares" would sell for SIS. or Sc.
which was FIVE times as much as 1t
cost him.
He applied for and obtained patent
on his invention so that no one else
could deprive him OF the profit 1t gave
him. 1t was Just after the war Of 1872,
and money was scarce and difficult to
get. But he worked early aud late,
and as he earned money he bought
iron. and hired men to help him. In
a few years he was able to erect q
large factory and put In machinery for
tho making Of squares. which by this
time had found their way all over tho
country and had made their inventor
famous.

Louis have been spoken Of frequently
as more sanitary than the upholstered
Pullmans, and, therefore, in addition
to their cheapness, a desirable point to
most of the sick travellers, they were
supposed to be cleaner, for the seats
are covered with cane and have no
hooks to harbor dust and germs. Ply
sicians have strongly denounced the up
holstered cars as promoters of the
spread of tuberculosis The railroad
people have had some tests made to Off
set that denunciation with statistics.
DIR. Charles Il. Dudley, the chief chem
list Of the Pennsylvania Railroad, has
made an investigation of the contents
Of car upholstery, and has reported to
the American Public Health Associa-
ton. DR.. Dudley shows that prolonged
exposure to tuberculosis in the air is
necessary if travellers are to take the
disease from this source of infection.
He says that two days Of strong light
and five days of diffused light will
sterilize the germs. This argument
does not seem to show that passengers
bound to the West in tourist sleepers
with tuberculosis patients may not run
the risk Of infection, especially if they
are in delicate health, and prepared to
contract the disease. No germs were
found from the examinations made Of
the contents of the cars known to have
been occupied by passengers suffering
from tuberculosis. In ninetysiX exam
nations of the air found in such cars
only one test showed the presence Of
the bacillus. To inform himself as to
the relative danger of textile fabrics
and smooth surfaces. DIR. Dudley made
experiments with several kinds in each
class, and his results go to show that
danger from infection from upholstered
furniture is much less than from the
