Infantile Paralysis.


Dr. Simon Flexner's discovery Of the
germ of infantile paralysis after six
years of laboratory experimenting is
one of the most grateful announce
ments of recent times. OF course, it IN
only a step, but it is a long one and
there is abundant hope that an anti
toxin will be found or at least some
methods OF cure.
Thus ends one stage in the history OF
an extraordinary disease which was al
most unknown in this country until ten
years ago and which is to this day
very much the despair Of the medical
faculty. That it Is the result of some
bacillus has been long believed but
only just now proven. 1t is aStoniSh-
ing in that the disease attacks sud-
denly and without warning young chill
dren paralyzing their limbs and resist
ing in most cases any treatment that
is really remedial. 1t has awakened the
sympathies of the world to an unusual
extent because OF the sudden blight
that has fallen ON so many innocent
darlings. Most adults who suffer from
dread disease can at least understand
the causes and the history of their
cases. and in some instances ii is the re-
suit of bad living. but with infantile
paralysis there is nothing of the sort
Moreover, one knows not at what mo-
:nent a child may be struck down
There is no prevention. the cases arc
sporadic and generally no traces of ex-
posure can be found.
If DR.. Flexner can provide cure for
this dread disease he VIII do good to
humanity out of all proportion to the
actual cases Of the disease. for there
are unnumbered parents who live III
dread that their own offspring may be
stricken down. Every individual case
Is the center of alarm for an entire
neighborhood.

Amethyst Superstition.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
The most beautiful and probably the
most important member of the quartz
family is the amethyst. which, accord
ing to a bulletin of the American Gem
and Pearl Company. varies in color
from royal purple to the lightest shades
of purple. and from brownish pink to
light pink and lilac. This stone was in
great demand among Greek and Roman
topers because of the belief that the
wearing of one would permit indul-
gence but prevent drunkenness. Anne
thyst was also credited with the power
to expel poison, make its wearer eX-
pert in business affairs and victorious
in chase and battle. While the vogue
of the amethyst has risen and waned
in the last forty years, there has never
been a period during that time when
this beautiful stone has not been
sought for by those who appreciate
jewels for their artistic value. Under
the dichroscope two images are gener-
one reddish and one blush purple.
Amethyst will not stand high tempera-
ture, as it loses it's color and turns
yellow; in fact, many of the quartz
topaz are produced by burning" anne
thyst. Most of the amethyst comes
from Brazil and Uruguay. the comme.-
ctal designation for the medium grades
being Brazilian amethyst, while the
rich. dark purple stones are known as
Uruguay amethyst.

LINCOLN'S WAR SECRETARY.
Another Little Pen Picture Of Ed
win M. Stanton.

]. NJ. Scovil. in Lippincott'e.
Stanton was a man of full habit.
stocky. about five feet ten in height.
He habitually wore long beard half
way to his waist, without a mustache.
To the ordinary or casual visitor he
was stern. unyielding and forbidding.
but for those who knew him best he
had a tender heart. He was the incar-
nation of duty. I have known him for
a week to remain in the War Depart
ment twenty hours out of the twenty
four, and the stars have gone out OF
the sky and morning come I'm the east.
while he and the President were bend
ing above the telegraph instrument,
waiting for good news from the sol
dier whom Stanton said, He Is as SLOW
as Virginia creeper."
At $50 in the morning II was his
habit to ride up In a coupe to the war
Department, walk up the steps and go
behind his desk in the reception room.
where he stood for many hours IN the
day Here he scanned the many faces
whose owners were awaiting his move
ments. And woe TO the man caught
with his hand unlawfully In the public
Treasury! The chances were he would
be reposing in the old Capltol prison
before night.
When Andrew johnson became Presi-
dent Stanton placed detectives in the
White House to watch him, charging
Unreasonable motives on the commander
| in-chief johnson naturally resented
this, and ordered Stanton out of the
War Department. Senator Sumner.
| from his place In the Senate telegraph
ed Stanton one word, stick" and he
stuck. barricading himself in the War
Department. eating and sleeping in his
private office for many weeks. He al
| legged that johnson had threatened to
drive what he called the "Rump" Con-
gress out of the Capitol with bayo-
nets.
The heroic struggle during the four
years he stood side by side with Lin
coin was too much even for the man of
! blood and iron" Within year from
the day he left the War Department
his health gave way. AS his death
drew near President Grant sent a spe
cial messenger with his commission as
a Judge of the United States Supreme
Court.

Grapevines should be pruned at once.
If the pruning is delayed until later,
when the sap Is rising in the vines.
much damage will be done, and the
vines may even be killed, or badly
stunted.
Prune the fruit trees at any time dur
ing the month. Cut back much of last
years wood and keep the trees pruned
into compact and symmetrical form.
Open pruning is generally considered
best, as this method opens up the tree
and permits the free circulation of air
and free access of sunshine.
Get the raspberries and blackberries
into shape as soon as possible. Cut
out all old wood. If this was not done
canes to remain. Blackberries and
raspberries bear only on last years
canes; growth that has borne one
year will never produce any more ber-
ries.
Cut off the runners sent out by the
strawberry plants at any time during
the month, and fork under the manure
the rows.
All fruit trees should be thoroughly
sprayed during the month Of March.
Use lime sulphur spray to which may
be added small proportion Of arsenate
Of lead. This is for the destruction Of
San Jose scale. oyster shell scale and
similar fruit tree pests. This early
spraying should be done before the
buds begin to swell.
gooseberry bushes before the sap
starts up and the buds begin to show
green. These bushes should also be
given good spraying with lime-sul-
phur solution. Keep them growing in
a compact, symmetrical shape. which
increases their attractiveness and
makes 1t easier to gather the fruit
later in the season.
1t is safe now to begon gradually to
remove the covering from blackberries
raspberries and the like. Judgment
should be exercised in this. however.
and the straw or other covering
should not be removed too soon or all
at once, as the canes are likely to suf-
fer from the effects Of late freezes if
the covering is removed too soon or too
rapidly.
Coverings or wrappings may be re-
moved. by slow degrees, from the out
door roses at any time now. Cover the
rose beds with layer of we'll rotted
stable manure an inch or so deep; this
is to be forked into the soil after the
frost has gone out. Do not start cut
ting back the rose bushes yet; 1t will
be time enough to do that two or three
weeks hence.
If YOU have a rhubarb bed and desire
some extra early stalks. place a half
barrel, from which the end has been
removed, over one or two of the plants.
Then pile fresh horse manure around
the outside Of the barrel If an old
sash, with the glass. is available. put
this over the open end of the barrel.
~ &c.
within ten days or two weeks under
this treatment.
Spread two or three inches of old.
thoroughly rotted stable manure over
the whole asparagus bed. DO not fork
it until the frost is out of the ground.

Do College Men 0verstudy!
From the New York Sun.


The discovery of Dr. Woods Hutch
inson that college men study too much
dispels general popular misconcep-
ton. He also thinks the young men
do not give time enough to open-air
exercise, exposing another common er-
ror. 1t is only few weeks since
foreign artist after a visit to this coun-
try described the masculine youth as
a race Of demigods, alluding entirely to
their physique and general display of
healthy manhood. This rather repre-
sents the home idea, only American
opinion extends the praise to the
young women. 1t seems to apply es-
peciaIly to the girl graduates as well
shouldered lad with his straight spine,
uplooking face and vigorous stride. the
tall, we'll balanced girl with her 1.-the
figure and movements null of life will
appear to many to be the best product
of the colleges. 1t is not necessary
to be very pessimistic to feel that the
inward lining of the heads of these
same Apollos and Atalantas does not
always indicate an equal degree OF
painstaking and successful cultivation.
bright they are and quick and re-
sourceful They usually have the
means of getting ahead. But it might
be an exaggeration to say that the
equipment they possess suggests the
processes that are ordinarily ASSOCIATE
ed with the idea of deep and exhaust
ing study. DR.. Hutchinson is needless
ly alarmed There are few college stu
dents of today undermining their con-
stitutions by poring over books.

UPPER sARANAC LAKE, n. 7.
Reversing a Phonograph Record.
From Strand

u.
A remarkably curious experiment
may be performed with any ordinary
phonograph. The sound box is reversed,
SO that the needle slopes the other way,
enabling the disc to be turned back
ward by the finger being placed near
the center. The effect produced is ex-
tremely astonishing. You hear the
human voice singing songs backward; /;
you hear the harmony of Wagner back
ward; plain English sounds like Chi
nese language. The most remarkable
effect is perhaps to play a chime of
bells in this reversed manner. The
sound rushes up and up-but there is
never a single stroke or clash of a bell;
the strike on the ear is reversed and is
nothing but sharp cessation of
sound"
