MORE SIDEWALK UsURPATION

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: A letter In this mornings Tribune
from A. W.. under the heading "Usurping
the Sidewalks" is right to the point a.
though hardly half strong enough. l wish
n enter a protest against the wicked way
in which 18th street is blocked at certain
points.
At Fourth avenue the subway kiosks
naturally rob the pedestrian public or more
than half the original width OF the side-
walk. AS II that were not sufficient, some
favored son Of Tammany has erected an
Office against the outside wall OF a saloon
AT the northwest corner, directly opposite
one Of the kiosks, leaving hardly three rect
of space for pedestrians-and this ls' morn
ing and evening, one of the most crowded
streets in Manhattan.
Directly opposite. on the southwest cor
ner. is a restaurant. Every morning from
eight TO a dozen great milk cans and gar
hapa cans block the sidewalk between the
kiosk on that side and the wall. On each
side of the street, between the entrance
and exit kiosks. is sufficient space for SUD-
way passengers 10 cross the street. but
this space IS invariably blocked by hand
carts-pushcarts handled by foreigners
who. for the most part, offer fruit of du-
bious quality 70 the shopgirls
Continuing to the west one comes nnally
70 Broadway Here, at the southeast cor
ner. IS the home OF concern which Is not
satisfied with pilng both sides of the walk
with their shipments each morning leav-
ing only a narrow space IN the middle for
pedestrians. but they actually bring out
desk on wheels and plant It in the centre
y, the sidewalk for the use Of their ship
ping clerk. This insolent usurpsuoh OF
public property on the part OF a great
wealthy corporation IS shame END as

There is scarcely neighborhood
that has not it's story of serious results
following the accidental sticking of
rusty nail in the foot. Tetanus or
lockjaw is often the result, most hor-
rible death. An honest and able
physician tells an exchange of a most
valuable liniment which he has found
to .ne almost specific for such wounds.
While not claiming that the liniment
in every case will prevent lOckjaw, he
declares such cases would rarely occur
if the specific were promptly applied.
He tells how he was called to see
boy suffering the greatest agony
stuck a rusty nail in his foot. The
foot was swollen and the doctor, before
applying the liniment, opened the
wound 50 that an outlet was provided
for the serum or pus. He ordered the
liniment to be freshly applied every
two hours until the pain was relieved
In six hours he returned to see how
the lad was progressing and found him
free from pain and out in the yard.
That was the end of the trouble. The
medicine is good for any fresh wound
on man or beast. The following is the
doctors prescription: Two ounces of
alcohol, two ounces of oil of organum.
and one-half ounce tincture OF camphor
BY all means, if you live in the coun-
try far from doctors and drug stores,

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.

We may not realize, perchance,
what home means to us until seas and
mountains separate us from the loved
ones-perchance not until sickness and
misfortune come-perchance not until
the Dreaded Shadow falls upon the
threshold and the Raven croaks above
the bust of Pallas. But when some
tie is snapped and some link is broken
and some chair is vacant at the fire
side then we realize that the cords
which bind us to the homestead are
knotted in the boSom's core and center
then we realize that the poet sang
for us and sang for all the world when
he sang beside the Thames:
Mid pleasures and palaces tho |
may roam,
Be it ever SO humble, there's no place
like home"
