“Ibr Gvd and llomt. and Satin' Land.
“Don't do right unwillingly,
And stop to plan and measure;
Tis working with the heart and soul,
That makes our duty pleasure.”
We want the name of an earnest Tem
perance woman in every West \ irgiuia
town where there is no W. C. T. I .. and
we want it now.
Mrs. J. A. esnith, President of the First
District is showing us wlyit a woman with
the heart anil will to work can do by way ,
of organizing the work and workers.
A new call comes from Salem. It is the
Reveille. The old soldiers say this was the j
name of the “getting up call. W ith Mr.
Davis for editor, this Rerril/r will send
forth no uncertain sound on the temper
ance question. May it arouse every voter
in Harrison county to zeal in the cause and
mav it semi forth its bugle notes till the
great war against King Alcohol shall end
in victory.
The large Prohibition vote iu Michigan
is said to be tlue t<> the presence ot women
at the polls. Why, of course. The aver
jge man would vote lor old Nick himself,!
indujpced by a bribe from woman's bright j
eve. Dear, dear ! how that would work in -
West Virginia, where pretty girls ate thick
as stars of a bright night.— IIIf Lug Li j-\
isler.
We shall probably have an opportunity '
to see how it will work iu West \ irginia.
The Register is not alone in its admiration |
for the pretty girwho are getting wide j
awake to the importance of temperance.
Already are they considering what they
cau do to help the cause along One young
ladies’ I niim hi:- i’voeic responsible lor
good music at all the temperance gather
ings in its place. The girls of Fairmont,
too, are notably in earnest and their inter
est will doubtte-s be intensified by atten
dance upon the convention > > so u to be j
held iii their town One yottug lady
whom we have not yet seen, writes, "l am
doing all I can to banish intemperance.
We have often thought with the Re-jUter
that the pretty girl- in uur State are plenty
a-stars, and we hop they wii! shine only
for the truly got, ; and noble. Some ut
them may have drinking fathers and bro
ther-, but li d forbid that they i ver become
the wives of drunkard-.

Tlu medical fratern :v ot’New Orleans
is considerably < xcited over the ca-e ol
M rs. K. W. Albers, who.-t* death within i
a few days from galloping eom-utuption
was declared a- certain by se veral lead
ing physician- a m uch ago. but who is
now apparently on the road to complete
recovery. She is tin wife ot A. \N. Al
tars, a prominent druggist of the Cres
cent litv. When all the doctors had
given his wife up, Mr. Albers determined
to try carbonic acid ga-and sulphuretted
hydrogen gas a- first administered by
Prof. Bergon, of Lyon-. France, and re
cently experiments 1 with at the hospital
in Philadelphia. Two thirds of Mrs.
Altars’ left lung was destroyed when the
treatment was 1* _un with an improvised
apparatus on March *Jt». Kvsuit of !ir-t
week a gain of one pound clear. At the
end of the second week—a gain in weight
of two an 1 a half p >un 1-, making a clear
gain of three and a half pnmd- for two
weeks. One of the futures was that the l
temperature, which upon the adminL-tta-1
lion of the ga- showed a fever of , t
declined in half an hour t • f>s . A sud-1
den drop ot'4 was followed by a craving
for food, which . nn d to agree perfectly
with the patient, and wa- in turn follow
ed in half an hour by a drowsy sensatiou,
prompting the pati- nt to sleep, wakening
from which -he had a perfectly restful
feeling. The gu- reaches the lungs with
in ten minutes after administration, and
i- clearly discernible on the breath bv
the characteristic odor ol' the -ulphuret
ted hydrogen which i- used. The appa
ratus used by Mr. Altars was impro
vised by himself, and i- -implc, consi-t
ing of two rather large -ized Irnfflos, one
containing tie ingiv. 1 i. nt- for making
earb *nic acid gas and the other charged
to generate sulphuretted hydrogen gas.
The bottle- are connected by means of
small rubber tub «■-, and the ga< is collect
ed or stored in a largp bag -iiuilar to the
“laughing gas bag” u~<d by dentist.-.
The gas finds an exit through a rubber
tube ending in a syringe.
