and Don't Pinch.
Scratching oneself and picking at
pimples or sore spots are dangerous
habits. likely to result in infections
more or less serious. This Is proved
by examination OF the scrapings of
nails under the microscope. Even
hands and nails that are kept scrupu.
lously clean by washing and brushing
are not free from the germs of skin
diseases

cisco reports to the Journal Of the
American Medical Association the re.
suits Of the microscopic examination of

dents In surgical college. There were
found bacilli. cocci and spirillae of
many sorts. especially those that pro.
duce pus.
These facts. he points out, may be of
great Importance in criminal trials.
DR.. Schneider cites one case in which
a man was accused Of killing a baby.
In the scrapings Of his nails were
found the "frustules Of fresh water
diatoms and few filaments Of osclla.
ria" This led to the suspicion that he
had buried his victims body in a
marsh. Careful search Of the banks of
a marshy stream near by disclosed the
little corpse.
DR.. Schneider says such diseases as
lupus. acne. boils and carbuncles are
traceable to scratching. Nail blters
frequently infect themselves.
There is the case Of the husband"
he writes. "whose neck on the left side
was never long free from one OF more
small pimpIes Or boils. traceable TO his
wife's habit Of playfully pinching his
neck. He ascribed the trouble to
starched collars. but several changes in
the laundry brought no relief. During
the prolonged absence Of the wife on a
visit with relatives the trouble disap.
peared entirely to reappear again on
her return with renewal of the play.

Then Faced Surprise.

Ihen ! Faced surprise.
When Albion w. Tourgee wrote "a
Fools Errand" he named one Of his
leading characters Theron Pardee. An
early copy Of the book fell into the
hands Of the Rev. Luther Pardee, an
Episcopal clergyman OF Chicago. whose
father was named Thereon Pardee.
The name Is such an unusual com.
biDation that in amazement the rector
showed the book to his father, and
they were both puzzled by the coinci-
dence. They decided to write Judge
Tourgee and ask him what had led him
to use the name.
He replied. In equal amazement. that
he had not supposed there was such
man living as Theron Pardee. Then he
stated that he had q prolonged search
for a suitable name for the character
