So say the physicians, but the milkmen seek revenge l>y charging a part nership between death and the doctors. Whatever may be the merits of either side fit the -controversy, the warfare between milk and medicine will probably continue until that blest day when every babe .--hall have its own private cow and every man shall be his own physician. Death has been hard worked this winter by tho in . fluenza, which everywhere prevails, and unless he shall soon have a respite from his labors the Destroying Angel is likely to be used up by overwork. As many physicians would have the world believe, man is born only to die, and from tho day ho leaves liis nursa's arms until the time he reaches the undertaker's hands he is but traveling along a milky way of disease and destruction, a sort of river oi death that issneth from tho udder of the cow and floweth direct to the grave yard. To the mother of thirteen children, who consume a gallon of milk per dieinC, and to the man who slakes his thirst now and then with a deep draught of creamy fluid, these aro not pleasant thoughts, but milk has been a staple article of diet ever since cows grazed in tho Garden of Eden, and it is likely to continue in use so long as tho human race shall exist and the cows hold out. The terrors that the alarmist sees in the glass of frothy, creamy milk are like the visions that a 12-year-old child sees in a Thanksgiving nightmare. Tho man who quad's his glass of milk with keen relish and solid satisfaction sees a vision of green fields, sleek cattle chewing their cuds in the shade of wide spreading trees, and a cool spring-liousa whero the j-parkling waters of a gurgling spring bubble around the great pans of ereani-ladon milk. This is the bliss that accompanies ignorance of the real and imagined ills that lurk in tho milk-can. There is no such happy lot, however, for the man who regards the cow as his dead liest enemy. When he opens a milk-can he fears lest tho imago of death shall spring out like a horrible Jack-in-the-box. Instead of the sweet-smelling hay in tho cow's manger he sees a trough of brewery grains and swill, and his poisoned vision sees a grinning skeleton on tho milking stool instead of a rosy-cheeked maid or a stalwart farm hand. To his prejudiced mind the rattling milk-wagon is a clatter ing car of death and the cheery cr}' of the milkman is like the sound of Gabriel s trumpet. Death knocks at tho kitchen door and pours a quart of eight-cent poison into the pitcher that is held forth, aud even the kindly nurse who gives a cup ot fresh milk to the suffering invalid is transformed by tho suspicious man into death person ified. The dairyman laughs, and even the cow smiles at the frenzy of terror into which imaginative people work themselves over tho milk question, aud while the suspicious man gulps down his tumbler of milk with a whispeied "from sudden death defend us" the trustful man swallows his glass <>l lacteal fluid with a long-drawn sigh of sat isfaction and gives thanks for the creation of tho cow. A Sobering Machine. The Doylestown Democrat tells of a con trivance that was in use iu that town that might be of considerable value nowadays if it were revived. This contrivance was a "sobering machine," and it is used to rid the streets of druuken men. It was a rough box mounted on a pair of wheels, with a half dozen young men at the tongue. When a drunken man made his appearance on the streets, the machine was brought out, run to where he was, he was helped into it and laid oa his back, and then run out of town. It was not a downy bed for the occupant by any means, and a ride of a milo would have a wonderful sobering effect on him. The old "bums" who came into town from the country soon got a great dread of the "so bering machine," and after ouo or two rides, the}- failed to visit the place. Its in fluence was very salutary on the same class in the borough, and, while machine was in use, they were afraid to appear on the street when tipsy. —lf you select good and healthy food for your family, you should also look to | the welfare of your baby.
