FINGER FElONS.
There Are Three Varieties of These
Very Painful Sores.

A felon, or whitluw, g an lnflamma-
ton of the hand or finger, usually OF
the last joint Of the finger Its impor-
tance varies with the seat of it-that Is
to say, with the portion of the finger
involved. 1t may affect the skin only,
the tendons or sinews or the flbrous
covering Of the bone-the periosteum.
A superficial whitlow, where the In
hammation is confined to the skin, may
be extremely painful, but otherwise 1t
is not Il very serious matter. But this
cannot be said of the other two forms.
In the tendlnous whtlow pus forms
In the fbrous sheath surrounding the
tendon, and unless the Inflammation
quickly subsidies or the matter Is let
out by the surgeons knife the pus
may burrow down through the sheath
into the palm of the hand and result In
a permanent crippling of the member.
The third varlety-called by ply
sicians the subperiosteal-is that in
which matter forms beneath the mem
brane which covers the bone. AS this
membrane Is tough and lnelastic the
tension due to the increasing volume
of matter becomes very great and gives
rise to throbbing, maddening pain.
The relief afforded by a deep cut into
this inhamed finger, right down to the
bone, is magical, although the cut
hurts. This Is the only treatment for
this form of felon, and the inclsion
should be made early, for If 1t Is too
long delayed the bone will be killed
and dischnrging sore will remain
which will later necesstate surgical
operation even IL 1t does not result In
the loss of the last joint of the finger.
The superficial whitlOw does not
usually call for such radical treatment
A clay poultice often affords great re-
lief. This may be made by making n
paste of clay previously sterilized by
baking in a very hot oven and adding
glycerin to prevent too rapid drying, OF
the clay may be obtained ready prepar'
ed in the drug store This protects the
finger from injury, keeps 1t cool and, II
applied early enough, may prevent the
formation of matter. When once pus
has formed, however, no matter what
the variety of the felon, the safest plan
of treatment Is to cut into the inilamed
finger and give exit to the confined
matter and relieve the tension of the
parts.-Youths Companion.

BLACK GOVERNORS.
A Curious Piece of Old Time Con nncct-
lieut. History.

A book little known even to collect
ors of Americana is "A volume entitled
Hartford In the Olden Time; Its First
Thirty Years." by Scaeva, which was
edited by w. NJ. b. Hartley and pub
lished at Hartford in 1858. There Is
chapter In this book entitled 1.-THE
Black Governors of Connecticut the
very title of which will excite the sur
prise of most intelligent people even in
Connecticut, who have never heard or
any black governors In the Nutmeg
State except the governors of an oppo-
site political faith, who were, of course,
politically black. The title, however, Is
explained and justified by little ex-
PLANTATION. Before the Revolution and
down to period as late as 1920 1t was
the custom for the negroes living In
the state to hold an election on the Sat
urday succeeding the regular election
day, choosing one of their number as
governor. Sometimes, however, no
election was held, the retiring governor
assigning his Office to another. The
man chosen in either case was usually
"of imposing presence, strength, hrm-
ness and volubility, quick to decide,
ready to command and quick to fog"
He appointed staff of military and
judicial officers, who executed his or
ders In all matters pertaining to col
ored people, especially questions per-
tanning to morals, manners and cere-
monies.
The fact that he had no legal status
in the province or state did not at all
trouble him or his subjects, and he ap-
pears to have exercised very real
power, nearly always on the side Of
morality and justice. The justices OF
the peace appointed by these black
governors were, as rule, extremely
severe in Furnishing people of their
own color who transgressed the law.
SO generally was this recognized by
the whites in colonial times that when
a slave committed some offense 1t was
the custom to turn him over to the
black justice for punishment. Such a
culprit always Jared much worse than
If he had been tried by the regular
courts Q.
Among the more notable colored men
who held the office of governor were:
Quaw, negro belonging to Colonel
George Wyllys; Peleg Mott, who be-
longed to Colonel jeremiah Wads-
worth; Boston, belonging to Mr.. Mich
olas; John Anderson and Cuff, who
held the Office for ten years. After the
abolition of slavery In Connecticut the
custom fell into disuse.

The prophets foresee in Mexico a
manufacturing country of the first

hydro-electric power, cheap and un.
organized labor, stability of climate,
and geographical situation. To these
are added the recent discoveries of
mineral oil or petroleum, and the de-
velopment of the coal fields in the
northwestern sections, which will
supply the required fuel. The amount
of power in use in Mexico is estimated
as 66,00S indicated horse power steam.

They look at all these things before
they attempt anything of prophecy,
and when they do consent to prophecy
they do not put it in black and white
because there is always a chance OF
the arising of something hitherto un-
known; but they do consent to give
an expression of their belief in the
future, founded upon the best knowl-
edge which is given to them from all
available sources. It is only the crop
expert who in the winter, the time
of the death of vegetation, refuses to
say one word as to the future, for the
time of long distance weather fore

The view of the coming year as it
touches exports and imports and the
manufacturers of the country is to be
expressed only by the much-used and
apparently well-liked word, rosy.
Should there be those who look
only to the purse as the standard of
peoples happiness, it may be said
that there is more money in circula-
ton among the inhabitants of the
United States to-day than ever there
has been lefore. Despite bank troub-
les here and there the financial insti-
tutional solidity and prosperity of the
country seems to have a foundation
