This is a disease which has long
northern Italy, northern Spain and
parts of southern France, but has only
recently been discovered in this coun-
try.
1t is variously regarded as skin
disease and as a form of insanity, for
it is in reality both; that is to say,
there are skin eruptions and a dis
turbance of the mental faculties, both
due to the same cause.
The disease is at first remittent in
character, that is to say, it has periods
of remission-in the winter-when the
patient is apparently in his ordinary
health; but each spring it returns
worse than before, and so it goes on,
with three steps forward and one
backward, to a fatal termination at
the end of from three to five or six
years.
The eruption begins as a diffused
redness or discolored patches, itching
most distressingly, and is followed by
a peeling of the epidermis in the form
Of branny scales 1t is most marked
on the backs of the hands and feet,
but may come on the body or legs as
well. 1t begins in the spring and gets
worse during the summer, but may
nearly or quite disappear with the adj
vent Of cold weather.
The next spring it returns, and
now there are digestive troubles added
pain and distress in the stomach
after eating, diarrhoea, and often YER
igo headache, and persistent ringing
In the ears.
In the winter these troubles again
become less, but return In aggravated

LIFE OF POWER.
By Rev. Arthur T. Pierson, D. D.


There is something morally sub
lime about heroic decision, born of
obedience to the will of God and sac
rif1ce of self as well. Perhaps the
noblest thing any man ever does is to
see the plan of God in his life and
for his life, and then patiently and
persistently do it; as Constantine said
when he marked out the limits of the
Eastern metropolis, Il am following
One who Is leading me-" Such man
alone can, like Roebling when he
looked on the finished East River
Bridge, say, Its like the plan" The
end of life is not qualification, even of
the highest sort, not even salvation,
not yet sanctification, but service.
That is a shallow notion that makes
our three-score years ami ten mere

Il am tired and worn out; there is
nothing but death our affections
can sever, and until life's latest

the morning when all in Christ
shall rise to meet Him in the skies.

TIMELY HINTS
FOR FARMERS
Bestinu the Hou Lice.

Up TO this year my young pigs have
been badly troubled with hog lice.
writes A. J. Legg in Farm and Fire
side. Although | killed the ice on the
old hogs repeatedly with kerosene, in
a few weeks there would be lice again
on them sufficient to infest the young
pigs. The trouble was that while the
Kerosene would kill every louise it
touched, there were sure to be some
nits left to hatch out or else few lice
escaped and the oil was soon gone.
Last spring l separated my sows into
pens a few days before they were due
to farrow and covered their backs with
mixture of kerosene and hog lard.
The lard stayed on for several days.
When the oil was about all gone from
lheir backs l applied it again. Not a
louise was to be found on either the
Bows or their pigs until the pigs were
weaned, nor have there been any since.
The hog lard and kerosene mixture is
n much more satisfactory lice remover
than kerosene alone, and it is not so
hard on the hogs skin.

How many chickens are on that dish,
father?'

"Well,' said John, Il can prove that
there are three" Then he stuck his
fork in one and said, 'That is one,
isn't it?'
Eyes" said the father.
"And this is two?" sticking his fork
in the second.
EYES," replied the father again.
''Well, don't one and two make
three?' said John triumphantly.
"Well, l declareY' exclaimed the IA
Their. "You have learned things at col
lege. Mother" continued the old man
to his wife, 81 will give you one of the
chickens to eat, I'll take the other, and
John can have the third. '-Tit-Bits.
