to person through tho air, (so far i.s
our present knowledge extends,) such
as typhus fever, small-pox, whooping
cougn and tnuuenza.
ft is fully believed by sanitarians
that most infectious and contagion
diseases could no "stamped out com
plctcly, could mankind be induced to
live up to tho light which wo now
possess concerning their nature. The
"plague," "tho black death." "thu
sweating sickness and "cholora," in
former years ravaged continents, carry
ing to tho gravo from one-fourth to
three-fourths of all tho inhabitants,
Their ravages havo been stayed j somo
of them aro unknown m civilized coun
tries. May tho diseases hero named
bo unknown to future generations.
HOW CONTAOIOUS DISEASES ARB SPREAD
It is believed that each of theso dis
eases is tne result ot a special poison
(contagium) working in tho bod)',
These enter tlio system in different
ways, and exert their main forco on
different parts of tho body.
Scarlet fever, small-nox and measks
and all eruptive diseases of the skin
aro probably propagated by a poison
discharged in tlio dead skin, as well,
also, as by means of all discharges
irom tno oowcis, bladder, nose, mouth,
eyes and ears. Tho disoharges from
tho skin (dry dust, scales, scabs, &c.)
as well as from tho noso and month,
aro believed to bo especially malig
nant.
In dipthcria, tho discharges from tho
mouth, noso and throat, as well os
from the bowels and bladder, are be
lioved to contain the poison, especially
those irom nose, mouth and throat
The same is true, of tho whooping-
cough. In the caso of consumption the
matter coughed trora the lungs prob
ably is a means of propagating that
disease. Typhoid fever, cholera and
dysentery havo their special poisons m
tho disoharges from tho patients bowels
which are disseminated in drinking
water. Tho same is probably true of
yellow fever. Puerperal fever may bo
conveyed irom patient to patient on
. ... -
tho persons ot physicians and nurse.
Parasitio diseases aro obtained f.'om
foods and drinks, and by actual con
tact of a healthy person with one dis
eased. Typhus fever seems to bo a
disease caused by over-crowding, and
by toul gasoa trom sowers and drains.
iho time intervening between ex
posuro to tho special poison and the
appearance of tho first symptoms of
theso diseases vanes greatly. It mav
be from only a few hours, as in the
case of cholera and yellow fever, to
threo or fonr weeks or even longer as
in typhoid fover.
As a general rule, ono attack gives
immunity from any second attack.
Scarlet fever, diphtheria; measles, and
whooping-cough prevail most among
children, but may attack all ages. Tho
other diseases named attack persons of
all ages. As a rule, the cleanly, tem
perate, well-fed, and well-housed suffer
less from these diseases than do tho ill
fed, intemperate, ill-olothed, over-work
ed, and ill-housed,- but this is not al
ways so. Tho intemperato certainly
Buffer raoro than other. Those who
havo beon successfully vaccinated
wilhm seven years do positively es
cape small-pox. Persons who are in a
"run-down and exhausted state of
body, aro more liable than others to
have the germs ot disease take root in
their bodies than are others. Typhoid
fevr especially attacks thopo in vigor
ous life. Diphtheria generally passes
nursing names.
HOW TO AVOID THESE DISEASES.
Seo to it that your family and your
self are successfully vaccinated. Un
less your services aro needed, stay
away from all houses in which these
diseases aro present. Don't attend
funerals from any of these diseases.
Keep ohildren away from all houses in
which theso diseases prevail. If any
oi theso diseases, to whioh children aro
subject, are epidemic in a town, keep
y-mr children trom day and sabbath

to drink only boiled water, such as one
gets in tea and oofleo When buying
or renting a uouso, aiwnys ask it it has
been free for tho past two years, from
all theso contagious diseases, aud de
mand a written auarauteo. Educatn
tho peoplo of your neighborhood as to
tlio nature of these diseases, and what
they should do when they occur. Aid
in establishing a local board of health,
and seo that your community has laws
in referenco to cleanliness, private
funerals, tho isolation of those sick of
contagious diseases, and the closing of
schools aud churches against those liv-
!ng in houses in which any contagion
diseaso prevails. Tho country privy
and tho city cess pool should bo abol
ished evoywhere absolutely. The
most scrupulous cleanliness munt be
enforced everywhere. When conta.
gious diseases prevail, do not send
your clothing to the public laundries.
i here should bo a notice on nvnrv
houBQ in which thero is a contamoim
disease, so that tho publio may bo warn
ed to remain away.
If one is renuired to bo about on
sick with a contagious disease, ho
should eat his meals regularly, tako
somo exerciso in the open nircach day,
yiu in usuui umuuui oi sieep, and dis
miss all oyer anxiety as to the danger
of contagion. But ho must avoid tho
special poison. Do not tako the breath
of tho sick ono. Do not touch with
tho lips any lood, drink, cup, spoon, or
anything elso that tho siok person has
touched, or that has been in tho sink
room. Do not wipo your faco or hands
with any cloth that has been on or
near tho sick person. Do not woar
any clothing tho sick person has worn
duriug, just before, or iust after his
siekuess. Keep your hands free from
any disoharges from tho body or skin
of tlio sick person, nnd if thev do bo-
come soiled, wash them soon as possi
ble in water containing a solution of
chloride of lime. Do not touch tho
ink with soro or scratched hands.
Particularly avoid receiving into the
body through tho mouth or nose, any

1. Tho sick chamber should bo as

It should bo in a part of tho houso
whero as much quiet as possiblo may

is best to havo tho sick room in tho up

from it will not minglo so much with
the nir of tho house. Tho room should
have moans for freo ventilation without
tho production of drnught. All un

A STARTLING FACT.
It Ii not commonly known that a large
proportion of the rheumatism and neu
ralgia extant is traceable directly to tlio
diseased condition or imperfect action of
the kidneys and liver; therefore a remedy
which cures the resulting disease must
havo found and smitten tho first cause.
Many persons using Athlonhoros for
rheumatism and neuralgia have been
surprised to find that chronic disorders of
tin liver and kidneys have also been
Rreatly relieved and they have written
for an explanation. The fact is, that the
remedy acts directly on theso organs,
cleansing them from all Irritating sub
stances and rcculatlng their action. Taken
in connection with Athlophoros Pills this
is, without exception, the most valuable
kidney and liver remedy in the world, and
will cure a large proportion of those who
havo theso diseases.

For tue last fire years I have been sub
ject to severe attacks of rheumatism which
would causomethe most excruciating pain
in my chest; was obliged to put myself
under the doctor's care for two or threo
months at a time, and even then it was
almost impossible to get any relief. The
last timo I was taken my sou was at home,
and I requested him to call the doctor,
but he said he had heard of a new remedy
for rheumatism called Athlophoros and
advised me to try It. I did and you can
imagine my surprise, was relieved of all
pin after taking one bottle and havo not
been troubled tlnce. It saved me ciiite a
sum of money, and what is better, I was
not obliged to endure weeks of euirering ;
would not be without it in the house. Havo
recommended it to others and it never falls
to give relief. L. II. rATTEitsoK.

Knthcr sadly was this said bv
romantio young uinunman, Mr. iiong
Wine, wno is noted amour? tho (Jm
neso for tho skill with whioh ho plays
on inn manuouu.
"In China." continued ho, "a man
novcr sees his wife until ho is wedded
to her for life, nnd soinetlmus he docs
not seo her then, for sho mny refuse to

200 wives before ho got through. Tho

one is the boss.
'If a man nover sees his wlfo before
their wedding, how does ho mako lovo

"Ho docsn t mako lovo to her. Hi

future mother-in-law makes lovo to
him. It is a sour courtship. Childrtn

"Does a Chinaman ever marry bis
cousin V
no (a marriago ot cousins was
nover heard of in China. A man may
no moro marry his cousin in China
than in Enolaud a man mav marrv his
deceased wife's sister. Toil talk about

In China families are soventy-fivo and

"Tho Chens, the Woncs and tho

inina, tno wongs aro tno joueses, and
tho Jiees are tho iirowns. A Mr.
Chen would marry a Miss Wong, but
ho wouldn't marry a Miss Chon. Per
haps that is tho reason why tho old
folks make tho matches. It prevents
tno Linens irom tailing 111 lovo with

"Aro tho Chinese Indies cultivated V
"Oh, yes: they can read and write,
draw, paint and cmbroidor. Thoy
never go out on tno street with their
husbands. If a Chinese man and wo
man wero to walk on tho street arm-in
arm in their conntry, as American men
and women do, they would be mobbed.
Tho women stay indoors. If they wish
to visit their mothers they take con
veyances. Sometimes they may bo
seen walking in the park with their
children."
"You are married ?''
"Yes."
"To a Chinese lady 7"
wo, to an American. I camo to
this country when a bov 11 vears old.
Though I was 9000 miles from China
my mother betrothed mo to a little
Chinese girl I had never seen. My
mother used to write to mo how small
her feet wero and how pretty sho was
and what a beautiful cat-liko noso sho
had. When I was 20 years old moth
er sent mo a letter savinr? I was nlil
enough to get married, and must como
Dack to thina and marry tho girl."
"vnai uid you think about it 7"
"I thought I was old enough, and
fell head over cuo in love with an
American cirl in Nevada, and
her. Wo had our pictures taken, and
I sont one to my mothor, together with
