CAUSES OF DISEASE AS GIVEN BY THE SCIENTIFIC MEN OF THE AGE. Monsieur Pasteur, who for years has made them a speoial study, first discovered that tHesc minute insects were the cause of spread lag the most deadly contagions through their : stonishing rapidity of reproduction. Pasteur i iscovered them in myraids in human blood, in i n i p, rabbits and rats. He found that the '.' licrobo was the direct cause of the Variolosls, i r small-pox. Bronchitis, Yellow Fever and other contageous diseases. The Miorobe in the human system attacked by Variolosls, is thread like, cylindrical and 1 >mewhatswelled. It is the smallest of all powerf ul magnified animal organisms. It breeds by "the thousand i>er minute. Pasteur after : :aklng a close study of microbe, discovered that the quickest way to exterminate them ras by the free Inhalation of oxygen gas, or by ; alils charged with that gas, but admits that the time must ooipc when some powerful U ? old will be discovered thai win effectually destroy the microbe, and that the liquid must i ^ntalh such gaseous c nnbinations as will des roy directly those germs of microi>cs of dis? ease, Dr. Maolagan, a prominent member of the ituyal College of Physicians and Surgeons Tie idea that many of the diseases to which TiiKU and the lower animals are subject, result ftam the presence in the system of minute or (ulinu or miorebes is not a new one. Cde lutroductisn of the mien scope, the dis ?avery of the yeast plant, am', the further par .sr!c nature of many cutaneous diseases have pteved conclusively that it is directly attribu ible to thejgerm it microbe theory of disease. Tlie theory has positively proven that many iseas< 9 are due to the presence and propaga? tion In the system of minute living organisa . it is essentially,therefore, to become horoughly acquainted with the class, kind, ?mi-v competence of the Germs that produce .hat v> now termed the phenomina of disease, i Qtagcon, infection, is created by absolute rperience and scientific experiments and r >fs. by theexistenceof minute organism or .. >robes. The contagion or microbe being (?articulate, and the minute particles lieing regularly scattered about in the atmosphere, ? is evident that the inhalation of one or more . f those particles is purely a matter of chance, fot, such inhalation, no matter how healthy . :-..! strong the man or animal thus inhaling It, It will, as a matter of course, be stricken down di :?; rlatei ,1 y the myraidsof microbes that rill, according to the contagious poisonous tatter Inhaled, breed into his system. To ex erminatethe* it has been found that liquids Ktr ugly timpregnated with gases land alkali iave been the most efficacious, and it is but a tatter of time when a liquid strongly inipreg atcd with those substance's will be discovered uat will effectually destroy the microbes or arms of disease. It is an organic formbf such extrememlnute : ess as to be classified under the head of Mt erocoeci. The microbe is a spheroidal, trans aarent and of a gelatinous consistence. It en ers the human system by inhalation, or exist a the water or miDc we drink, or the food we at. It is ii^lo to stand tiie trrcatest amount fheat. By the mostcareful study and fre? nn nf experiments, microbe have been induct ! by ivory needles, into meats that have been thoroughly roasted and boiled, and yet, when iken from the ovens, pans, grid-irons or pots, h-.f microbes have been found to t>e yet alive , :.! propagating, .bus showing that even cook-1 tnsrhas no effect upon them. Pi lessor Tyndoll says of the Microbe : rhey are found in myriads and countless bapes. floating in the air, destroying man as well a> beast and vegetation. The virtual tri imphs of the antiseptic systems of surgery is ased on the recognition of lying contagiaor nicrobes, as the agent of putrefactlod. and his discovery made.it behooves the |elosest tiidy of thosubject by the physician, surgeon, bemist, agrieultuist. in fact.by all men. to en cavor to discover some powerful liquid suli tanee. heavily charged with some so far un? discovered gaseous substance that will pene ? rale through every tissue of the human, ani? mal or vegetable system and effectually dc : r< ly that death dealing pest, the Microbe, The word microbe was first introduced by t fossor Charles Sedillot, and endorsed by the great philologist, Littre. who caused its adaptation by the Academic des Science of France, and thus had it admitted as a scienti? fic term to be used by all scientists. Science has taught us that the direct causes ( mtagioua diseases are directly attribnta ' to a minute, invisible, yet death dealing in? sect, fcedlng.living on the germs of corruption nhaled. absorbedintho system, whether hu? man, animal or vegetable. It is designated in science as the microbe1. ;:i< most deadly of all animalcule, propogat ng by millions, and spreading disease wher ver it makes its appearance. The extermi? nation ofthat curse to the human race has axed the ablest scientists, who have devoted lursof study In each and every branch of heir differeut researches to check the fright ? ul inroads by the microbe upon whatever it i ttack-.

As the summer advances much ac? tivity in building operations vs noticed, and many new houses are in process of construction. This natur? ally makes the real estate markers much firmer, and agents are corres? pondingly happy. Simmons A Co. have been doing a rushing business, one of the best since the lirra was es? tablished. The East End property is changing hands very rapidly, ami many new houses will be erected this season. Among the prominent additions in the East End, is that of the Oak Kidge Land Company. The addition lies just east of Belmont and south o: the East Side Land Company's prop? erty and adjoins the farms of Messrs. George Taylor and G. W. Carr. This offers every inducement as a place of residence. It is removes from the business portion of the city and therefore gives a quiet, suburban home, while at the same time it i.< near the dummy line and therefore quite convenient to the city. The land is high and dry* and lias just enough slope to give it gooc: draiuage. Gas and water mains are being put in and new streets arc be? ing laid out. Everything is propi tious, and it is destined to take it: proper place in the front rank. It is located near the furnace, rolling mill bridge works and the machine works, and offers, therefore, greater induce? ments to the workingman, as it is near his work. A number of neat cottages are going up and others have been contracted for. James S. Simmons & Co. are agents for the company, and they can give good bargains. The property is go? ing rapidly, and if you want to obtain good bargain call on them at once. The prices for the lots are low and the terms easy, so every man can own his own home. In Holland, Mich., C. J. Doesbury publishes the News, and in its col? umns strongly recommends Dr. Thomas' Eclectric OU for coughs, colds, sore throat, catarrh and asthma. It is an established fact that Joseph Cohn, the Salem avenue clothier, has the finest, largest and best assort? ment of ready-made clothing in the city. Just listen to what he proposes to do in order to close his entire stock before the season is.over. Pie pro? poses for today (Saturday), to divide his entire stock into threegrades.

No city in the South has grown with greater rapidity than lias Iloanoke, and probably not one is on a linner foundation considering its age. Roanoke swells and grows each day. and unlike most cities,does not grow ic any one direction more than an other, but is being rapidly built up on every side, north, east, south and west. 1 The influx of population since 1884 I has been enormous, and hundreds of buildings have gone up to supply the demand. There has been no lull in the erection of houses this winter, ex? cept that occasioned by the rain, and drive in what direction, you will hear the sound of the hammer and evi? dences of building meet your eye. Hundreds who rented houses a few years ago pay taxes now, owning their d Wellings, and the erection of res? idences is the best index to the growth of the city and the strongest assur ance that the city is here to stay. The homes that have been built here within the past year are, many of them, as handsome, artistic and expensive as can be found anywhere. To accommodate the ever increasing population, numerous additions have been laid oil and the lots placed on the market. Among the many valu? able properties hereabouts, none of? fer greater inducements as a place of residence than the Glade addition. This property is situated just east of Glade creek and is traversed by the Vinton extension of the Roanoke street railway, which places it in di? rect communication with the central portion of the city, a person can live in that section, and if his place of business is in the upper part of the city, or even in the West End, he can take the street car and be ready for the day's work at the usual time. Every benefit of a surburban residence is obtained,with? out any of its discomforts. The property is well drained and therefore healthy. It has been di? vided into lots by the laying off of wide streets and avenues. The view to be obtained from Glade addition is beautiful. On the east, towering hundreds of feet in the air, are the Blue Ridge mountains, while on the south the Roanoke river winds itself like a silver thread among the hills, forming one of the most beautiful bits of scenery anywhere in Southwest I Virginia.
