The New" Antiseptic

Various notices have appeared in the daily and
weekly papers from time to time in regard to what
is stated 10 be new and wonderful antseptc, said
to be used very successfully in France in the treat
ment of surgical cases. Credit for it's discovery is
given both to Drs. Alexis Carrel and D. Dakip.
This antiseptic system consists in the applica
ton of hypochlorites. As matter of actual fact
the credit for the use of these substances as anti
septics belongs to an American. Their value in
medical and surgical use discovered by Albert
E. Woolf of New York, twenty five years ago. and
the Woof system adopted by the City of New
York for the publication of water. Many other
scientific publications at that time contained
ments and accounts of applications of this discovery
All of the valuable results claimed for the
hypochortes for medicinal and surgical
developed by DR.. J. Soils Cohen in the Home for
Consumptives in Philadelphia, many years ago; and
they were also used by DR.. Philip Keyser in the
Wills Eye Hospital Philadelphia. and in New York
hospitals, where they have long been well known.
Many special and exhaustive tests were made in the
Hahnemann Hospital in New York in abdominal
operations, with remarkable success.
In some Of the articles now appearing it is
claimed that hypochlorite of calcium is the most
powerful antiseptic known. but that it's is limit
ed owing to it's destructive action human tissue,
due to it's acidity. This statement is erroneous,
the hypchlorite of calcium is strongly alkaline, and
it's destructive action, if any, would be due to its
strong alkainty and oxidzing action if used in too
concentrated form. The statement is also incorrect
for the reason that it is well known that OXYGEN or
ozoue is the most powerful antiseptic

News. The campaign against tuberculosis in Sar-
anac Lake, N. Y. is described by DR.. Charles c.
Trembley. the local health officer. He tells of the

goes
The effect was immediate and gratifying.
Witnessing the influx of new business to this dairy
man. harred by questions from their customers as to
why they not producing better grade of milk,
he remaining dairymen besieged the health official
with applications for definite instructions to meth
DDS for improving their standing. At present, of the
twentythree diaries furnishing milk to the village,
twenty consistently produce milk with bacterial
count under $4,000. The local requirements are
stringent nashuch they require bacterial count
of not rs, 900 for grade A. and not $4,000
for grade B. Nevertheless eight of the daires,
than one third, are in grade A.

Ingratitude

An migrate is standing TO his fellow
He is the foe of the humanitles, and his pres
or his recollection causes pain in every circle.
However, it must be born in mind that ingra-
titude does not consist in prouson to thanks hon.
eyed words. Knaves are distinguished by this lat
ter accomplishment and not uncommonly those who
overlooking with their sense of Indebtedness
at least able to express the feeling of their minds.
1t is deeds that count and not words so much, yet
because this primary truth is lost sight Of
ing words often pass for legal tender in the activ
tiles of life
Instances of ingratitude however glaring they
appear should not deter the we'll intended from the
exercise of whatever desire they may have to per-
form good deeds; otherwise every mans hand would
soon be turned against his neighbor and the world
revert to barbarism. No good work is done in vain
each benefit received and i'll repaid always reacts
against the migrate.
In everyday life the grateful man is perceived
to the lkeable man, the man whose friendship is
sought and to whom trust and confidence gener-
ously extended. The ungrateful man on the other
hand, repels because he exists largely for himself
alone 1t soon becomes known that any service
rendered is like seed sown upon rock-wasted. If
ingratitude merely lack of appreciation, that
would be bad enough; but when good deed is re-
paid by the evil Indifference it has far reaching
effect in exposing the guilty one to the implacable
judgment Of the Golden Rule.-Ex.

TWO DIVISION PLANS
FOR CANYON COUNTY

Canyon county promises to split two
ways during the present session IL the
promoters of the ambitious county
division plans are successful and. in
eidentally, Caldwell is between the
devil ind the deep sea" Payette
aspires TO be a@county seat. In fact
that thriving city has had such an
ambition in previous legislatures.
Nampa also wishes to become a coun-
ty seat. Neither is that ambition new,
it is said. Incidentally Caldwell. the
present county seat, finds it hard to
place its favors on either side, for
Caldwell likes both Nampa and Payette
and would have them remain. 1t is
whispered about the legislative halls,
however. that the Canyon county dele
cation is Just as divided in it's senti-
ments as is Caldwell, hence the en-
barrassing situation.

making two new counties. giving as
many county seats away, is rapidly
developing into concrete one and
there would be no surprise il bills
with this avowed purpose make their
appearance, both in the senate and the
house of representatives. AS near as
could be ascertained from legislators.
there seems to be a pretty well settled
