ABSCESSES.

I think that this is another import
ant subject that my readers should
know something about, especially
when I think of the many patients
who suffer from assesses.
What, is an abscess? To put it in
simple terms let US say that it is a
circumscribed collection of pus sur
rounded by wall of lymph. Maybe
your doctor told you that you had
Acute Septic APPEAL Pericamentitis;
Acute Alveolodental Abscess; Dento-
alveolar Abscess or Granuloma. Of
course know that you took his word
for it (nothing else), at all events
he meant just what I said in the
above sentence, except that he point
ed out the location when he said
APPEAL which means at the apex at
the end of the root, and Pericemen-
tits means inflammation of the Per-
icementum (the tissue that surrounds
the root of tooth).
There are two kinds of assesses
namely, acute and chronic. An acute
abscess is the one that most of you
know something about. It is the one
that developes with all the signs and
symptoms of inflammation such as
Redeemed area. increased temperature,
swelling sometimes CONSIDERABLE 9,
pain is present, at times intense, de-
pending upon the character of the
tissues involved, the severity of the
injury, and the reaction of the It's
sues. The function of the part is
diminished, and fever is usually pres
ent. A chronic abscess is one that
forms without the signs and symp-
toms of inflammation, but it's activ-
ity and dangerous tendencies are the
same as the acute abscess. It is too
bad that all Assesses can't be. acute
because when they develop we ere
warned by the pain, swelling, etc.,
and relief is sought in ample time.
Chronic assesses may continue for
years without the slightest discom-
fort on the part of the patient, but
the toxic products of the bacteria
that cause the assesses are con-
stantly entering the system through
the channels of the blood system and
the lymphatics. This is detrimental
to the physical organization of man
in ways that I pointed out to you in
my previous articles.
What causes assesses?
Deep seated infection due to bac-
terial invasion in long standing cavi-
ties, pulpless teeth (teeth where the
nerve has been removed) that have
improper root canal filings, trauma
(injury) by means Of a fall or a
blow. Constant irritation to the
pulp (nerve) by means of a deep
seated filings, billings that run too
close to the nerve), this has ten
dency to kill the nerve in tact. And
like anything that dies inclosed in a
chamber (as the nerve of a tooth isl
it becomes rotton, prutrescent, and
sometimes gangrenous. These condi-
tons favor the growth of the abscess
also. Teeth that are ground down
too close to the pulp for crowns might
produce the same conditions. Septic
infection from pyorrhea pocket To-

ANoLo-sAxoN HYPOCRISY
(The Nation.)

The Florida peonage revelations
have been horrifying in the extreme
and there are encouraging signs that
the aroused Northern press, notably
the yeoman service of the New York
World, has begun to have it's effect.
1t looks now as if the guilty sheriff
and the judge and many Of the others
responsible will meet with their just
deserts-of course if they had been
colored men they would have been
lynched long ago. There is evidence,
too, that the Florida pocket-nerve is
beginning to be touched; fear that
the lucrative Northern tourist trade
may be affected is apparently be-
coming an incentive to virtue. But
as we have pointed out before, this
is not the first time by any means
that the scandals of the Florida chain
gang have been revealed. Revela-
tions almost as sensational appeared
in the New York press just twenty
five years ago. This furry will be
similarly of temporary value and
will do nothing to remove blot upon
the American good name or to pre-
vent the most horrible human tor
ture and suffering unless it results
in the complete abolition of the mon
strous and inhuman chain-gang sys-
tenn which can no more be reformed
than cam war. Both are utter ana
chronisms. The blindness of our
countrymen! They are up in arms
over the execution of Russian
priest, and yet they tolerate year in
and year out the doing to death
throughout the South of hundreds of
innocent men sentenced to the chain
gang on trumped-up excuses by
crooked sheriffs and venal judges in
order that contractors may make
money. What pharisaism, what
Anglo7Saxon hypocrisy!

REV. HARRIS AGAIN

According to a Daily News story
an information bureau has been
opened at 46S Rice street for the
guidance of colored. emigrants to the
city, and according to Rev. J. w.
Harris, colored persons are f1ocking
to the city from the South where
pastors there are urging them to
come to St. Paul.
All of which is very interesting,
but it is about time that the Daily
News and the public in general came
to know that what Rev. ]. w. Harris
has to say about migration or any
thing else is not authoritative.
Since he has been in St. Paul Rev.
Harris has had more undesirable
publicity than any pastor in, recent
years. He does not wish to cooper
ate with others in the community on
various enterprises. Even now he
holds a permit to solicit for funds to
erect a community house in connec-
ton with his church.
He knows that various clubs and
organizations are cooperating to
meet the migration of colored folk,
and he knows that money has been
pledged to bring the Urban league
to the city to care for welfare needs.
In the face of this knowledge he
must needs establish his own infor-
nation bureau, and by so doing
stamp himself again as the disciple
of dissension.
If Rev. Harris is maintaining the
bureau with his own funds, there is
no more serious charge against him
than that he refuses to work with
the community at large, but if the
bureau is being supported by solicit
tation from people who are led to
believe that this man is representing
the colored people of St. Paul and
seeking aid in their behalf then he
should be stopped and stopped at
once, so that other enterprises rep
resentative of the whole community
will not be endangered.

day wore on without any report from
him, Stillwell appeared to grow more
at ease; and at nightfall he told Made

reason for concern.
"Wal, though it's sure amazin'

Next day Stillwell and Alfred de-
cided to ride over to Don Carlos place,
taking Madeline and Florence with
them, and upon the return to stop at
Alfred's ranch. They started in the

rotary of War, has long been working
toward more and better municipal

FUNERALS AND FLOWERS
(The Monitor

Flowers are emblems of the Res
direction and are therefore appro-
pirate expressions of coincidence
when death visits the household.
Their beauty and fragrance soothe
sorrow. The gift of flowers in the
hour of bereavement is a beautiful
way of expressing sympathy and is
always appreciated. The custom of
doing so has become firmly fixed and
could not be set aside were there the
desire and disposition to do so. We
have no desire to see this custom set
aside, but we do believe that the
tendency toward extravaganza in the
observance of this beautiful custom
should be checked and that certain
reforms, were it possible to bring
them to pass, would be desirable.
We believe that it would be much
better, for example, to substitute
simple bouquets of a few cut flowers
for the costly, elaborate and, in many
cases, meaningless designs which are
much in favor. These elaborate de-
signs, such as "Gates Ajar,"s Broken
Columns" "Pillows," and the like.
are cumbersome and inartistic and
are>no so expressive as the simpler
sprays and bouquets. The latter, in
our opinion, commend themselves for
another reason. 1t is this: They
can be sent to carry cheer to some
sick room in private home and hos
pital, thus doing a double duty. In
stead of heaping flowers upon the
new-made~ grave, where they wither
within a few hours and are thrown
into some unsightly pile by the sex
ton, would it not be better to leave
only few, say one from each spray
or bouquet, upon the new-made
mound, and use the others to carry
good cheer to the living -shut-in in
home or hospital? The extravagant
expenditure of money for flowers for
funerals and the wastefulness shown
in heaping them in huge piles upon
graves to speedily fade, are abuses
of a beautiful custom which should
be corrected. Send flowers as ex-
pressions of sympathy and of faith
in the life everlasting, but let it not
be overdone as the custom of the
day seems to be. A few simple fra
grant blossoms given as genuine ex-
preston Of heartfelt sympathy in be-

"The colored workman can be kept

ported statement of President Ka-

ArChaeoIogiSts Expect to
Penetrate Inner Tomb in
Fortnight 1900 Tons of
Earth to Be Moved

LUXOR, Egypt, Oct. 19.-(By the
Associated Press.)-Preparations for
lifting the 1000 tons Of earth. stone
and wooden joists that now rest
over the tomb of Tutankhamen, are
proceeding apace. Howard Carter
and his American associates,
Messrs. Gambler and Burton. have
re-established themselves in their
lonely concrete domiciles at the en-
trance to the Valley of Kings, and
have made a preliminary survey of
the work that must be done before
the inner tomb believed to contain
the mummy of the Pharaoh can be
opened.
The archaeologists estimate that
at least a fortnight will be required
to clear away the vast heap of rub
the outside world. 1t is possible
that narrow gauge railway loaned
by the American archaeological mis-
sion will be used to hasten the work.
Nearly 100 of the native eXcaVa-
tors who helped Mr.. Carter uncover
the tomb last summer have been

American union wages look like
fortunes.
Each digger is to receive II cents
a day with slight bonus at the end
of the season if the Pharaoh's body
is found within the sarcophagus.
Most of the laborers are boys of
from 10 to 18. but some of them
are grown men who support two or
three wives on this slender remu-
neration.
1t is probable that Pharaoh Tut
ankhamen will be undisturbed for
many weeks, as the dismantling of
his multiple tabernacle of gold will
require the most painstaking labor
and skill. The delicate parts of the
outer and inner shells will have to
be treated chemically and the
utmost care taken to guard them
against breakage. In addition to
this, the entire wall shielding the
sepulchre from the other chambers
probably will have to be demolished
so as to permit the archaeOlogists
sufficient room in which to work.
Mr.. Carter is still sanguine that
the body of the king will be revealed
just as it was buried. The fact that
the inner coffin is of stone precludes
the use OF the X-ray in determining
what contains the mummy.

TOmmie Daniels in Douglas about
seven years ago by shooting him
with a pistol. was convicted Thurs
day in Coffee superior court of vol.
untary manslaughter and received
a sentence of from 10 to 20 years in

A jury was stricken and Inn
panneled, but before the evidence
was submitted the attorneys for the
defendant and Solicitor Spence
agreed on a verdict which was ap-
proved by the court and then en-.
tered up by the jurv.
This ends trial of much interest.
White was tried once five years ago
and received a life sentence. Some
three years ago he was tried again
after the supreme court had given
him a new trial. and at the second
trial was convicted for life and
made a motion for new trial. but
began serving his sentence. After
serving two years, Judge Summerai
granted a new trial on account of
rela tionship of one of the jurors.
Since the killing, he has served
considerable time in jail and in the
