Republicans Win in Boston aud the Prohibition Makes a
 Gain.

in nineteen Massachusetts clues, ln-I cluding Boston, was devoted mainly to-day to expressions of surprise at the increased strength shown by uh supporters of no license. The total yes vote cast in the nineteen cities yesterday was 96,60S, loss of 2,- 299 from the vote of the same cities a year ago. Tho total no vote in the nineteen cities yesterday was 93,53S, a gain of 15,071 over a year ago. The figures show total no gain Ill the nineteen cities of 17,37O. Ire no vote of Boston, to the surprise ot many, showed an increase of 9,O00. Including the fourteen Massachusetts cities which had previously held elections this year, the results show total yes vote of 135,720 and a total no vote of 130,S5S. Compared with last year the yes vote has de- creased 425 in :he thirty-two cities and the no vote has gained 19,374, making a total gain of 19,799 in the no showing in the thirty-two cities.
 While the defeat of John F. Fltz- gerald, the democratic mayor of Bos' ton. by Postmaster George A. Hib- bard, Q republican,, was not altogeth- CT unexpected, slight democratic losses in the makeup of the common council caused some surprise.
 The three great surprises. outside of Boston were the election of for mer Mayor John F. Hurley, a radical reformer, in Salem, and the transfer | of Worcester, Lynn and Woburn from the license to the no license col umn. To offset partially this trans. i fer, Chelsea voted for license after having given no license trial. l While party lines were not drawn hard and fast, the republicans werA successful in the majority of the cities, the cities electing mayors as follows: 12 republicans, indepen- dents.
 It was the closest and hardest | fought election contest which Bos ton has known for many years, the city going republican by about 2,00G votes, Postmaster George A. Hib- bard, republican, defeating Mayo John F. Fitzgerald, democrat, wnc was a candidate for reelection. The GSNlSeu I6IuIlo ohOW IiS lolloNii',: vote cast for the rhayoralty candi. dates: John A.

Medicine In Ancient Egypt.

There is much evidence in inscrip- tions and manuscripts that the ancient Egyptians practiced medicine and sur gery extensively. Probably their prac, tlce was based on little knowledge of anatomy. Each physician treated only one or two diseases. The sick were exposed In public places so that others who had suffered similarly might tell them of helpful remedies. Diseases of the eye were best understood and re, celved both medical and surgical treat ment. The most important medical manuscript found in Egypt Is the Uapyrus Ebers, written 5000 B. c. and discovered In Memphis. Disease, &C., cording to the Egyptians, was due to the anger of some deity, the result of the triumph of evil in its struggle with good, an idea which Is still very gen. eral throughout Africa and Asia and which at some time has been prevalent in modified forms in almost every race -"RecordS of the Past"

Onion as a Disinfectant.

There Is, writes London correspond- ent. stratum of common sense in the advice given by q north country teacher to her scholars. If you have cholera or scarlet fever in the house. put some onions under the bed and they will sweep away all disease" for the onion proved it's virtue in remarkable way years ago. when cholera ragged through. out London. It was noticed with sur. prise that one of the most insanitary districts-Saffron Hill and it's neigh. borhood-was almost exempt from the visitation. The majority of the inhab, itants being Italians were great onion eaters, and strings of this vegetable were found suspended from the ceiling In nearly every room. The medical officer of health concluded that the onion, among its many virtues. con- tains powerful antidote against chol. era 1norbus and possibly other diseases.
