Scarlet Ferer ami Us rrcvention.
Tbe Pennsylvania S.4te Hoard of j
Health has issued a circular relative to I
that highly contagious and infectious 1
tlisea.-e, scarle'jfever, which is rube even :
more die-.dud than sal: p"X. for it cau
not he avoided ? vaccinnaLion, and ,
claims its victims tveu in greaier iiimi- ,
bers than that dread disease. Along
with diphtheria, it ib .he most dread-d ,
a3 it ia tbe most fata! t the dia .s-s .f
childhood, and it is therefor highly de-
siratle that ail jarenls should under- !
stand thH tature uf the disease and 'h
best means of preventing its sprmd.
.S'irr throats and skin eruptions are often
the precursors of scarlet fever, and when
these are detected, the patient should at
once be separated from the rest of the
family ULtil a physician has been called
in or the syrnptorui named have distip
peared. Oue fact should always be
borne in mind, and thai is, the mildest
case of scarlet fever may communicate
the disease in its most fatal foim.
The poison of scarlet fever may b
communicated by personal contact, by
infected clothing from the discharges f
the patient; in fact from any articles
which have been touched iv him no
matter how trivial they may e. The
discharges of the nose, eyes, ears, skin,
and body generally are considered more
dangerous than all else, and the danger
remains so long as the skin is in an un
healthy condition and peels ofl ii. flakes
or scales. Thisieriod Is never less than
foity days, and sometimes is twice as
great. The time, which intervenes be
tween the e jpoiure 1 1 contagion and the
appearance of the disease is vaiious it
may If six fajs or four times as long,
so that pareuts are often deceived as ti
the source of the infection.
Scarlet fever is usually iegardrd a,
one ff 'he diseases of childhood, and in
fact, the greatest number of deaths from
it are children under ten years of age.
but nevertheless it is socneti.nes con
traded by adults, and although in t
mild form, they may convey it to child
ren in its most malignant shape. Usu
ally one attack pievents a recurrence ;
neither is it a disease to which all child
rtu are subject ; nrauy are not attacked
by it, and none would be if the poison
germ could he kept from them.
As it is the result of a special poison
the first step to secure immunity Is to
prevent the exposme of the children to
its influence. When tke disease breaks
out in a schi ol. the pupils should
once be withdrawn, and kept from thus
houses w here it exists. When it appears
iu a family, those children not afTected
should be removed to places out of dan
ger. The parents should refrain from
attending church or other publio assem
blies as much as possible.
Pure water should be used as far as i;
la procurable. If there is any doubt ef its
character, it should he boiled. Care
should also be given to pure foods and
milk, and these should never be receiv d
fr 'in homes ir which the disease h
known to have been within a recent pe
riod. Cleanliness is another precaution
that is strenuously insisted upon, ti:ib
is consiilTed a promoter of scarlet fever.
Sewer gas must not be allowed and all
foul odors of whatever kind should be
destroyed. All these precautions may
not prevent the contagion in certain
oanes, but they nevertheless may do so
in many and trie ir observance is there
fore of the utmost importance.
Tbe Longest ISutdce. The rail-
ad bridge across the river at Cairo, ol
vhieh plans have been approved at ihe
"War Department, will be one of the
largest ever built in this country. The
main portion ia over 4,00 feet long,
there being two spans of 2o feet each
and three spans over "2-"0 feet each.
The whole bridge and its approaches
will be three miles loner. According to
the Act of Congress authorizing its con
struction, its lowest span must be o3
feet above extreme high water and 105
feet above low water. The work has
already commenced. A special feature
of the bridge is the fact that the found
ations must be placed in the alluvium
bottom of the Mississippi river which
joins the Ohio at Cairo. There is no
"ck on which to rest them. P.orincr
- r!y 200 id depth fail to give any thing
t alluvial deposits of clay and sand;
seiuently the foundation must go to
ireat dptb, and must depend on the
ring power of the sand and the Tric
,al resistance of the sides of the
andations. The bridge will coat ?2.
i,000 and will inak? a continuous road
ie without a break from Chicago to
w Orleans.
Examination of tables of the wheat

tive wheat production of the prin- :

Horses and .Mule.
Everybody it. this country is interest
ed in live stock. The man who takes no
pl.'asuie in looking at a thoroughbred
horse is Ct for stratagems and spoil?.
His judgment is not to be trufted on
any political or religious question of the
day, for his bend is filled with sawduat
and his heart is a piece of marble stain
ed blood-red a base, contemptible
counterfeit.
Just look at a few stupendous facts
taken from the report of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, just at hand. Tho
" tottle of the whole " va!ue, as Mr.
Hume ust-d to say in Parliament, of
horseflesh in this country is what V
Guess. Open your eyes aud tie prepared
:o deny the statement when we say it i.i
as close to one thousand millions of dol
lars as figures can make it, and open
your eyes on,;e more when we tell you
that the value of horses aud other live;
stock, as mules, cows, sheep and swine.
reaches the enormous sum of twenty
five hundred millions of dollars. Now
look at some numbers- Texas and Illi
nois take the lead. They are small and
largely of Spanish origin, and Cud a mar
ket at from twenty to seventy dollars
each. In the latter there are l,05i),247.
but they are more valuable and larger
The favorite breeds are the French
draught, the Clydesdale, the English
shires, and the Cleveland bays. New
York has 000,802 horses, but they are
worth something over sixty-five millions
of dollars, while the million horses of
Texas are worth only a little more than
thirty-three millions of dollars.
As for mules, the meanest of brutes
with lots of total depravity in their
hind legs anp a very evangelical expres
sion of counterance, the country toler
ates 2,117,141 of them, and their value
is one hundred and sixty-seven millious
of doliars. There are do mules to speak
of in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Massachusetts, Rhode Inland, or Con
necticut, probably beecause the old
fashioned .Puritanism didn't care to
share its total depravity with the brute
creation and kept it all for itself. At
least that is the only reason discovered
so far.
As a four-legged study these facts and
figures have a peculiar interest.
Delicate persons, and all whose eystems
have beome debilitated, sbould bear in mind
that Siran-ons Liver Regulator is not a dras
tic, purging medicine, does not weaken or
deplete the system as otber purgatives do,
but acts gently. It will Invigorate like a
glass of wine, but is no Intoxicating bever
age to lead to intemperance; will promote
digestion, dissipate headache, and generally
tone up the system.
lion. Alex. n. Stephens, of Ga., says:
"Simmons Liver Regulator is mild and suits

According to Henry V. Toor, the
highest of all authorities on the subject
of railroad statistics in this country,
our railroads are carrying $3,000,000,000
of watered capital. At G per cent, this
means an annual charge on the people
of $180,000,000 to sustain the market
able value of fraudulent paper. No
wonder that a person who is described
as "one of the brightest ornaments of
Wall street" recently remarked :
"Kailro'ds are not made to carry
freight and passeneer9; their chief pur
pose is to carry bonds."

Take Internally from five to ten drops of
Darbys Prophylactic Fluid in a tablespoon
f ul of water every hour or two till improve
ment takes place. There is no danger in
taking more of it and more freqently if
occasion requires. In chronic cases, or
when the stomach refuses to retain any
thing elee, ne injections of the Fluid and
after. We bav" never known a case that
did not readily yield to such treatment, and
it saved tbe liyea of many.

These diseases can he cured by the use
of Athlophoros which, in connection with
Atlilophoros Pills, never faila when prop

who have tested it. .

Circumiitantial Evidence
I I.hvp very little faith in clrcnm
sti.i : a: vidmce, havirg strn so runny
iisiiiicit nl.iie it was in firor. In
dncV tstinjony a witness may destroy
tht tiuth, hut in circumslantial tvi
dtnee he has a double opportunity to
lie. und uu ay of tipping him up. I
rtnii mbfr a cajp in Mississippi, hapin
ing when I was a boy, that has made me
chary about using circumstantial evi
d nc- since I have Vrm fnjsfMl
i.i piacticing the law. The victim was
a p nr man, who came there from the
n;r' h, pot, hold of a small farm to cul
tivate, and constructed a log but dou
by the river, in which he lived all alone.
N'er' him resided a rich planter.
Around his hat the country was veiy
eort and swampy. It was off the main
r-jii'i and was not seen frequently by
trtvelfrs, but a bridle-path leading
nar the hut was uetrd considerably by
pop around there to cut off the dis
ance to town. This rich planter one'
d iy, in closing up his se son's crops,
went to town to sltle up with his
ajrnts, ar.d it was expected wouid have
c iusiderable money with him on his re
turn. The time passed for him to
rfctui'i and hi did not come. L.ater bis
horse arrived home, riderless. A search
was instituted, and early next morniiig
the body of the planter was found in the
swampy land off the bridle path. II is
pockets had been rifled, and it was clear
that the murder had been committed
tor robbery. lieside the body was
f.m,d a derrirger, with the name
of the occupant of the hut engra
ved on it. Treading from the hut to the
b dy and bck to the but were well
dimd tracks. At the hut the man
Has r'oun J sleeping, tbe mate to the der-
ujfror by hfs side, his shoes muddy, and
his hat fi'.l-d with papers taken from
th dad man's pockwta. The shoes fit-f-d
the tracks nicely, and a very strong
cane of cucumstautlal evidence was
made out. lie was tried, convicted,
:u:d hanged. He protested bis inocence
no fiiiongly on the scaffold that the
.sheriff dehsyed in the performance of
bis duty. "Withiii twelve months after
thai a hard case in that country was
UK.rtaliy wounded, aud od bis death-bed
he coufesped to having committed the
murder, and gave up money and papers
tin had secured. He said he bad crossed
from the road to the hut in his stocking
feet, had put on the poor man's shoes,
armed himself with his derringer, and
luid in wait for the planter, aid" After
commiting the mutder had fixed the
evidence of guiit around the still sl-ep
ii.'g occupant of the hut.
A Useful, Monkey. A rery valu
able rriunkey is the Cbacma of Africa.
Wlif n youne, this baboon is very teacfi
nble. And is often kept by tbe KefTirs as
a domestic animHl. lie takes the placw
of a dug growling when a stranger conies
near ; and if it becomes necefsary to
defend bis master's property, he i; much
stronger thn any dog.
The t'bacma easily learns to blow the
bellows of a smith, or to diive oxeij ;
but his greatest uee in that country is to
fine! water.
In the hot eeasou vhen the earth ii
parched, and spiings and streams are
dry, tbe owner of a tame Cbacma takes
'akes him out to hunt for the water
thsy all must have.
The intelligent monkey seems to knew
what i wanted, or perhaps he knows by
his own feelings what to louk for, and
he goes carefully over the ground, look
ing earnestly at every tuft of grass, and
eagerly sniffing the breeze on every side.
Whether ht Ecents it or not ianot known,
but if there is water in the reiglibor
hood be is sure to find it. It may be a
dtep spring, in which case he sets to
work digging down to it ; and ;it may
be a certain very jucy root, which often
servei instead of water. He gets that
out also ; and let us hope that be has bis
full share of it, to pay for his work.
The Irishman and his Totato.
Why is the potato so much grown Bnd
consumed in Ireland ? It is became po
tato growing and potato eating form the
simplest process by which the Iri9h ten
ant can keep body and soul together.
He turns up his land, plants it, waits i
four or five months, and then digs the
crop. The product of these operations
is his sustenance. It has not, like cat
tle, oi wheat, or any of the higher pro
ducts of farming, to bs turned into
money before it can be made available
for his own use. The complex transac
tions by which producers and consu
mers in a civilized society provide for the
wants of others and secure the satisfac
tion of their own do Lot enter into the
economies of the Irish peasant. He
sticks bis potato into the ground, and
in due time te gathers the harvest.
Feeling hungry, he goes to his store,
deals himself out potatoes enough for a
meal, claps them into a pot, eats them
and is content.
A boy once heard hi9 father remark,
It is a poor rule that will not work
both ways." One day while at play he
found eigbt bricks and placed them ail
on their ends ; he then pushed the first
one oyer, and that knockeJ the next "one
down, and so on until all were down.
He then raised one to see if it would
raise up the rest ; but the remaining
seven did not move. lie went to his
father and told him what he had done,
and that the rule failed. " My son."
said the father, bricks aod mankind are
alike ; both are made of clay, both are
active in knocking each other down, but
neither is disposed to help each other
up." How true I
Why Potatoes auk Exhaustive.
A large crop of potatoes takes from the
soil Dearly one hundred pounds of pot
ash per acre. Few soils will stand this
drain, and therefore the yield declines.
The potato crop is universally sold from
the farm, and it leaves less refuse in
manure than pry oihe". Potato tops j
should be brought to the barnyard to be i
worked into the manure heap. Though
not bulky they contain codsiderable fer
tilizirg material. Left in the field they
will be blown iuto fence corners In the
winter, and thus be lost.
