George J. Gould since the death of
his father is said to have received an
average of four letters of advice daily.
All of the cranks in the country, for
getful of the facts that young Mr.
Gould was associated with his father
in business for twelve years, and that
he had almost entire control of affairs
for the last two years, are eager to tell
the young man how to manage the
vast estate in his charge. A goodly
proportion of these would-be advisers
are anxious to have a share of the
Gould millions diverted into religious
and charitable channels. One writer
advises the Gould children to build
the largest and finest church in the
world, as a memorial of their father.

In Case of Diptheria.
First, strips of linen or cotton fa
brick, about eight inches wide, folded
several times, and long enough to
reach from ear to ear, should
be rung out of ice water (if in winter),
and if in summer put directly upon
ice, and then applied externally to the
throat, and as fast as one cloth gets warm
another should be ready to take its
place, writes C. G. B. Klophcl, M. I) ,
in the January JavIM Jfonm Jour
nal. If the child complains of being
cold, its feet nnd hands should be
bathed in as hot water as it can stand.
When the child is very young, it may
be readily ascertained if it be cold
by feeling its hands and head. Under
no circumstances should hot applica
tions be made to the throat. If the
child is ol-l enough, it may be given
broken ice to suck constantly, even if
the water is spit out. The cold ap
plications inhibit the growth of the
microbes. The patient's hands should
be washed frequently and here let
me say so should those of the atten
dants and the vessel used for the
purpose should not be used by any
one else. The patient's clothing needs
protection in front. This mav be
done by pinning back of the neck
large piece of linen or cotton fabric,
which will cover the whole front of
the child and reach as far as the knees,
A material should be used which can
easily be boiled or burned when soil
ed. The little patient, if old enough,
will want to spit, and for a spittoon a
small wooden box, with an inch of
sawdust on the bottom, is capital.
Fresh sawdust should be supplied at
least once a day three times a day
would be better and that which has
been used should be emptied upon
good, hot fire, and thus burned at the
time the change is made. If there
are any flics about, the box should be
kept covered, and, as a matter of
course, only uncovered when the pa
tient desires to spit ; otherwise, the
flies alighting upon this spittle would
carry the germs of the disease with
them, and then alighting upon the
family's food and drink, necessarily in
fect them, and thus indirectly infect
the whole family. This is by no
means chimerical, but a well-establish
ed fact.
Success in everything depends
largely upon good health. De Witt's
Little Early Riser are little health
producing pills. See the point ?

HOLD THE FORT-
This little book which came from
the press a few weeks ago, is becom
ing popular and is meeting with a
ready sale. Ihe leading church
papers ot different denominations
have highly commended it to their
readers, and the author has received
many kind letters concerning it. The
following letter is from a Reverend
gentleman who is considered an ex
tensive reader of religious books and
a competent judge of their merit:
New Berlin, Union Co. Pa; Doc,
22, 1802.
K-.v. A Houtz A. M., Orangeville Pa.
Dear friend and brother ! Some
time ago I had the pleasure of read
ing your interesting anil instructive
book entitled "Hold the Fort."
have not enjoyed so much reading a
book intended expressly for the young,
since I read in my yonnger days the
book of Newton on religious subjects
for children. The quality and
character of "Hold the Fort" are far
in advance of the average Sunday
School literature. While style is
plain, clear and straight forward, it
abounds in apt illustrations and ap
propriate similies. A book after all.
derives its worth from the spirit and
character of its author. For what we
do, depends upon what we are ; and
what we are, depends upon what we
receive ; and what we receive, de
pends upon our fellowship with Christ,
As some pious soul has expressed the
idea in more touching and beautiful
language. 1 he help which is done
upon earth, Christ doeth it all Him
self." The heart acquaintance of the
author with Christ is the best reputa
tion for "Hold the tort, and this is
the reason why I should like to see
the work commented noon from the
pulpit, and the work introduced in
every Sunday Shool and family in the
Church. Home has been truly styled
the vestibule of Heaven. Home is
the mother's place, where she holds
eternal vigilance over her children.
Here character is built, here she keeps
the boys and girls close to her love so
as to save them from soirow and shame
afterwards ! What better books could a
mother select than this to read,
and to interpret its principles in her
family. I would cheerfully recommend
it to every good mother, for it wisely
covers all the religious subjects her
children should be informed on.
Yours very gratefully.
S. Sidney Kohler
