DIPHTHERIA. A SetialM and Timely Letter from ft Doctor. This disensR is much more prevalent now than people are aware of. But the laot that a errat many have it under the nnme of coWa, sore throat, ulcerated Bore tbroat.sjnipiitlietic sore throntsand other simple names, proves that It need not he fatal or very serious to the un fortunate person sick with it. There i3 alwavs more or less danger attending it. But the danger is immeasurably less when it is known to he diphtheria and called by that name than when it is yot in the premonitory stage, while the pa tient just infected with it is lazy or stupid, poing about in a sort of shiver ing, dazed way, with no appetite and beieft of all animation In the season of miasmatic troubles it is safe always to have the possibility of diphtheria in mind, and to be constantly on the look out for throat affections, that it may not be so fully developed as to be beyond remedies before its presence is even sus pected. It is a blood poison, with more or less inflammation of the throat and membranous deposits on tonsils and palate. It is so si w in its early stages that tho patient is too frequently beyond human help before the friends are will ing to believe anything is the matter, and then too little self-possession is left to aid anybody in behalf of the sick one. A few suggestions, perhaps, will be ac ceptable in this very trying time. As long s tLe pulse is reeular in its beats, do not mind about counting it too fre quently. Even physicians can merely surmise what the number of beats is to the pulse per minute of a new patient in health. There is always danger while it is variable. For several davs the fever will be very hiah, and there is nothing so grateful as ice or water to orink, hot or cold. Baths are in order the sponge bath, or a fuil bath ol eight or ten minutes, once in two, three or four hours, preferably oJ pretty w.irm water; or a warm pack of from half to three-quarters ol k'q hour, repeated once or twice a day. A pack is very soothing, and will oiten reduce the pulse twenty to thirty beats per minute, and the temperature one or two degrees Hot water to hold in the mouth, or to use as a gargle is also very serviceable. A compress of hot water constantly about the thront is necessary, and a wide compress of hot water from the arm-pits to the hips oiten sends a very restless patient into a delightful sleep. The compresses should always be wrun? out very dry, and covered with thick, soft, and dry cloths. These should be retained, if agreeable to the patient, Irom one to five I curs, and re peated twoor three tioiesaday (tweuty four houis). Never give stimulants. Whatever tood is taken should be in liquid form, such ns beef tea, rich milk, gruel r.f Indian meal or oatmeal. 1 pre fer Indian meal gruel made to the taste; while it positively nourishes, it also acts mechanically on the many inflamed crevices of the throat, stretching, oiling (in a certnin sense) and cleaning as it descends to give the stomach the impres sion of a good meal. Food, medicine, and otler necessary attentions should be given regularly, promptly, ana with a spirit to humor t he delirium or obsti nacy of the patient. Strict attention should bo ;ivtn to the suggestions 01 the adviser in the case. The patient Bhtuiu he watched closely nieht and day, aad abundant fear should be had lor any sequelas that a serious case al ways develops, that no in discretions be committed bv nurse or uatientl Months are often required to recover from diphtheria, as scrofolous sores may follow, or paralysis, and affections of the kidneys. The throat and nose (if the Ktter is affected) should frequently be cleaned with a swab or douche; no secretion should be allowed to remain long enough to corjawJe and become an additional irritunfT I mention this last as a most important thing in diphtheria, because so few realize the necessity of cleaning the throat, or dare to do it. The suggestions given in this way must be incomplete so iar as medicine is concerned, but 1 presume to say that if one-half the ciues that die had had no other treatment but that given in this article, the patients would have been saved to life and their friends Odelii B'inn, M.

A fruit-bearing tree bends; all the virtues are lowly. Love, faith, patience these are the three essentials of' a happy life. Life is a long shipwreck of which the debris is friendship, g.'ory and love. Anger is blood, poured and perplexed intoafrotu; but malico is the wisdom of our wrath. We measure minds by their stature ; it wouid be better to esteem them by their beauty. The elephant is never won by anger; nor must tlit man who would reclaim a lion take him by the teeth. The intellect has only one failing, which, to be sure, is a very considerable one. It has no conscience. Napoleon is the rendiest instance of this. True dignity abides with Lim alone who, in the silent hour of inward thought, can still suspect, and still re vere hia.Bett in lowliness ot heart. Though the word and the spirit do the main work, yet suffering so unbolts the door of the heart that both the word and the spirit have easier entrance. Lover, daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother; in those six words lies what the hu iiun heart contains of the sweetest, the most ecstatic, the mo&t saci ed, the purest and the most ineffable. Danger from Stoves. Careless bundling of coal stoves has proved fatal in a great many cases, the escaping gas carrying its deadly poison to inmates of houses. A paper which appears to have given the matter con siderable research presents the follow ing valuable information : Some people through icnorance ot the principles upon which stoves are constructed, and equal ignorance of the process ot combustion, live in an atmosphere impregnated with coal gas. They become so accustomed to it that the peculiar smell of the gas does not attract attention. Ignorant, these people are also saving, and en deavor to keep a smoldering fire in or der to save coal. So with draughts closed, the coal is baked, nut burned, causing it to giv off its gases, which do not readily burn and ire not carried off by the usual channel. The only safety is in a fairly glowing fire and provisions for such draught as will carry off the gases, or such a tire as will consume tueni. But few furnaces have ever been constructed that do not throw into living rooms quantities of coal gas whenever the tire is stirred, or does not burn briskly. People who burn coal may save money by keeping a Bmoldering fire in a cheap and b idly constructed stove, with improper draught, but they shorten lite at the same time and run the risk of sudden death from suffocation. Those who use coal stoves should keep the draught free, and never employ dampers in the pipe that shut off more than three quarters of the hot air cur rent. A damper that shuts off the cur rent almost entirely is death. A Little One's Heigh Ride. "Oh, mammal Is it enowlngf" "Yes, darline-, it has just Deyun." "Isn't it nice, mamm; y:u know I wanted to live to hear the sleigh bells again." " Hush, my child ; mamtr a will not let you die. No, darling, you shall have mnnv sleigh rides yet before you die." "No, not many, u amma; if 1 could have just one, it would be so nice." It was last Tuesday, and a little girl who had seen the snow come and go nine times, lay dying in her humble home on St. Antoine street. Weeks and weeks the fever had burned within her and its fierce fire showed itself in the deep bine eyes and the lovely, innoo nt face. Tue mother, an ever-constant watcher at the sufferer's pillow, had never given up hope, but the child, with that knowledge which seems to come to all before death, knew that she would never join her merry playmates over on the school ground. Day by day as the fever burned she had wished for the enow to come, and when the white flakes fell the other day the loving mother changed the child's position that she might, unwarn ed, catch the first glimpse of the fleecy snow. The child gazed out into the flurried air long and earnestly, and then when the pain made her writhe, she turned an appealing look to the sad faced mother, and said : " But, mamma, I don't believe I shall ever have another sleigh ride. Now premise me if this snow is on thejground when 1 die you'll have my coffin carried to the grave on a sleigh." "Why, my sweet child, why do you make sjch a request? You shall not die you will grow better to-morrow." "But, mamma, promise me, will you? Please, mamma, pleaie." "Yes, darling, yes." "Oh, thank you, mamma that's so nice. See, it is growing dark outside. Full the bed nearer the window, mamma, so that I cm gee the street lamp. There, see the flakes thev glisten just like diamonds. It will be sleigh ing in tue morning, mamma, and I shall hear the bells." Like the snow flake that falls upon the warm earth she melted away, and no ore knows whether sne woke to hear music and bells on that morning we shall one day open our eyes upon.

Ostrich Feathers. The war in South Africa between the Basutos and the English is likely to di minish very materially the stock of OS' trich feathers of the world. Exactly over tho ground where the ostrich once stalked the unbreeched Basuto now hurls defiance at the English soldier. Hut what is curious about this strife. and its consequences, as far as feathers go, i3 that the Basuto country was the region from whence the larger portion ot tue ostrich eggs were obtained, ua trich farmers lurther south bought these eggs, hatched out the birds in more civilized region, and raised them for their plumage. The strangest thins, however, is where the Anglo-Basuto difficulty affects the New York tin-man As New York makes the most approved ostrich egg incubator, the demand was lame and increasing, because ostrich chicks refused to come into this world unless duly born in a New Pork patent incubator. Now that actual war exists no more incubators are wanted at the Cape, for there are no eggs coming to the ostrich raisers. What a Pig Picked Up. A pig belonging to a colored man liv inn in rise county, opposite sparrow bush, met with a singular adventure The youug rooter was doing some nasal plowing in a swampy part of a held, and came across a huge snapping turtle which was sleeping quietly on a log. l'iggy didn't know a turtle irom a tea. kettle, and he promptly put his nose unuer one side ot the turtle's shell and turned him over on bis back. The turtle was naturally indignant, and as the pig's nose came near his head he fastened on it and settled down to busi ness. The pig was frightened nearly to death and tried to run away, but, as the turtle was nearly as heavy as the pig, the running away was slow. The squealing of the pig finally brought help, and the turtle was captured and found to weigh twenty-eight pounds, That pig cannot be driven toward the spot where he first met the turtle.

Plush and brocade coals are very stylish, and are worn with skirts of any material. Ladles now embroider deep flounces of black satin or cashmere for the ir petticoats. Shirred waists aro very much worn by quite young girls. Buttons of nearl. opal or Rhine pebble are used for fastenings for gloves. High standing ruches and f raises for the neck are more in vogue than ever. A new fringe of chenille is called spalskin frinee. from its resemblance to that fur. Larce hounuets of flowers are now placed in the center of the bodice, about the sixth button from the top. As dresses of old style are so fashion able, the hair will be elaborately dressed and powdered, after the ancient regime. Plaque buttons of pearl with grapes and leaves, cherries, currants and blackberries of enamel are among the new buttons. Jackets with short fronts which resemble gentlemen's dress coats are worn over very full skirts, absolutely without drapery. Broad velvet sashes are worn, tied at the left side in a careless knot. They are gayly lined and finished on the ends by shirring and tassels. Dow an Actrass Dniiei. The New York fashion correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer writes that, on entering the dressing room of an actress friend at a theater, she saw spread out on a chair an elaborate dress of satin and velvet, a peculiarity of which was that all the bows and other ornaments were already fastened in place, and the garment was open in front irom neck to hem. thousu so contrived that the junction would not be visible when worn. This arrangement was to avoid delay, and how the actress made complete change of costume in less than live minutes is described as follows : "First, she picked ud a pair of cloves and began to put them on. At the same time her maid unhooked her dress from top to bottom with Quick, deft fingers. and stripped off the wuole garment in a twinkling, sue seated herself and ex tended her feet for the maid to take off the sho' s and stockings. The latter being stripped down over the feet in 8 jiffy, diclosed clocked silk hose, so that the Iresh pair were already on. By the time the slippers were in place, the actress had got the last button of her gloves into its buttonhole. A minute and a half had elapsed. Then the maid took off several pull's and a bow from uer mistress' bead her nair in the previous act having been simp y dressed ana put on n more elaborate blonde wig, fastening it in place with hairoms, Next, the actress stood up, and the maid swiftly put her into the dress that had lain on the chair. Ever part of it lell admirably into place, plentiful hooks and eyes holding all together. Standing before a lull length mirror she nnallv surveyed herself critically, at just three minutes and a half from the start. Half a minute more was employed iu putting additional rouge and powder on the tace, and then she was ready to go on tue stage. Women and Ladies. In the days of our fathers, there wore such thinzs to be met with as men and women but now they are all gone, and in their place a race of gentlemen aud laaies, or, to be still more reuncd race of "ladies and gentlemen," has sprung up. Women and girls are among the things that were. But "ladies" are found everywhere. Miss Martineau wished to nee the women wards in prison in Tennessee, and was answered by the warden: "We have no ladies here at present, madam." Now, so far as the ladies were con cerned, it was very well that noue of them were in prison; but then it sounds a little odd ladies in prison! It would seem bad enough for women to go to sucn a place. A lecturer, discoursing upon tho characteristics of women, illustrated thus: ' Who were the last at the cross? Ladies. V ho were last at the sepul direr Liatues." un this moderm nn provement wo have heard of but one thing that beats the above. it whs tue nnisumg touch to a mar riaee ceremony, performed by an ex quisitc divine up to all modern refine ments.

Jeiry Greening, a noted Pike county, Pa., started out on a grand bear-hunt, taking provision far two days' sfy The first day out he kiiiea a fine four-pronged buck, which he dressed and hung up in a tree out of reach of wild animals.

Jerry grabbed his rifle, and, niter taking careful aim, tired. The bear eave a loud growl, and galloped off in the underbrush. In the morning Jerry saw blood-stains on the ground, and following the tracks some distance, he came to the entrance to a cave in some rocks. In front of this cave was a large pool of blood, and the nunter was convinced tnat nis game was wilnin. He procured a Pine knot, out of which he made a torch, and after the manner of Irsael Putnam, entered the cave. The entrance was small, and ho was obliged to creep in on his hands and knees; but as he advanced the opening grew larger, until finally, he could stand upon his feet. He was advancing cautiously when he heard a growl, and oeiore ne could draw his rifle the bear sprang upon from behind a huge nouider. knockinir him down, and in Aiding a severe wound in the shoulder witn her claws. The torch which Jerry carried was extinguished, and the old hunter was left to fight for his lifo in total darkness. He succeeded in reaching his hunting-knife, and dealt tue bear several vieorous blows in tne neck and sidewuh the weapon. The blood from tin animal's wounds spurted into Jerry's face, nearly blinding him. The bear relaxed her hold and made lor the mouth of the cave. Jerry followed, but in ;the darkness wns unable to find his rifle. He nursucd the bear, and just outside the cave another hand-to-hand conn.cttook place. The smuggle lasted nan an nour. and after tne bear naci nearly succeeded in stripping Greening of his clothing and had inflicted several more wounds, she was dispatched, Jerry procured another pine-knot and reentered the cave and procured Ms rifle. In tho farthest corner of the cave he found two little cubs, not larger than kittens, which he took home with him. The floor of the cave, Greening says, was literally covered with bones. A Surprised Dos. At a certain ciub house in Boston there was kept in tho billiard room a parrot which was so tame and such a favorite that it was not confined to its cage, but was allowed the liberty of the room, and was often se?n perched upon ne furniture, or wandering about on tne floor. On one occasion, when the bird was seated in the corner ot the room, a gentleman, a Mr. B., entered, followed by bis dog, whether a pointer or a set ter we do not know. The dog, after a few moments, winded the parrot, drew on it, and finally stood fast. The bird, which had been up to this time, appar ently oblivious of the presence of the ca nine, now turned its head slowly, and in tones pxoressive of the utmost contempt said, " Go home, you darned fool."" The dog started, looked, and then, turning tail, slunk out of the room. It is said, that although up to this time the animal bad been a splendid Hunter, ne would thenceforth never point a bird.
