PROF. TYNDALL ON THE PROPA
GATION OF CONSUMPTION.
Th* Naaum of Purses- A Pie* for
Spittoons- Th* Interesting Conrln
slons of Dr. Cornet, * Patient Cor*
man Investigator.
In a late t\>rtnightly Professor Tyndall
lias a very important article on “The
Origin. Pro|>agation, and Prevention of
Phthisis.*’ It is a condensed account of
the result of the discoveries of Dr. Cor
net, a colleague of Dr. Koch, at the Im
perial Sanitary Institute at Berlin. What
Dr. Coruet has discovered, says the fte
view of Reviews, practically amounts* to
this, tliat the tubercle bacilli, or the in
fective matter of consumption, is almost
entirely propagated by the conversion of
the sputum of consumptive patients into
dust, which is afterward breathed by
people. Hence, the true way to prevent
the spread of consumption is to induce
all consumptive patients to use a spittoon
and never to expectorate at large.
Dr. Coruet found that the consump
live germ retained its virulence for at
lenstaix months. The dust of the room
in which a consumptive patient has lived
contains the seeds of the disease, which,
when taken into the lungs of a healthy
man, may produce consumption. The
real cause of consumption running in
Families is not because it is inherited, hut
because there is family infection, due to
the breathing of the dust of the dried
sxpectoration of the consumptive
patient. The room in which a consump
Live patient has lived, and who has not
used a spittoon, the walls and all the fur- j
niture are full of virulent bacilli, whereas j
the dust in rooms where the spittoon is '
constantly used is absolutely free from
: Lite deadly gertn.
The first law, therefore, which must be
(aid down for consumptive patients is,
never use a pocket handkerchief and :
□ever spit on the floor, and always |
and everywhere use a proper spit
toon. Dr. Cornet would have spittoons
iu all offices, workshop, all public build
iugs, corridors, and staircases. In fact,
I to read Dr. Cornet’s suggestions, we
*eetu to be within measurable distance
; from the time in which, if a consumptive
patient is found spitting upon the floor
Dr into his handkerchief, he will promptly
tent to a jail or hospital for a period not
gxceediug two months.
Professor Tyndall gives some very re
markable figures as to the mortality of
turses in Germany as the result of their
| 'liability to tuberculosis. More than oue
:ialf tlie deaths of Catholic nurses in
18 German hospitals were due to this dis
?aae. Nursing is one of the deadliest oc
j pupations known, to man, or rather to
woman; a healthy girl of 17, devoting
tierself to hospital nursing, dies, on au
ivurage, 211 years soon than a girl of the
tame age iu the general population. A
woman of 24 will live 22 years longer in
die outside population than what she
would do if she were a nurse in a hospi
:nl. This extreme mortality, Dr. Cornet
thinks, might be reduced by the rigorous
use of the spittoon.
The following is Professor Tyndall’s
mmmary of the German investigator:
(t is universally recognized that tubercu
losis is caused by tubercle bacilli, which
reach the lungs through the inhalation
Df air in which the bacilli are diffused.
They come almost exclusively from the
dried sputum of consumptive persons.
The moist sputum, as also the expired
breath of the consumptive patients, is,
for this mode of infection, without dan
ger. If we can prevent the drying of
the expectorated mutter, we prevent in
the same degree the possibility of infec
tion. It is not, however, sufficient to
place a spittoon at the disposal of the
patient. The strictest surveillance must
be exercised by both physicians and at
tendants to enforce the pro;*-r use of the
•pittoon, and to prevent tne reckless dis
posal of infective phlegm. Bpitting on
the floor or into pocket handkerchief* is
the main source of peril. To this must
be added the soiling of the bedclothes
and the wiping of the patient’s mouth.
The handkerchiefs used for this purpose
. must be handled with care and boiled
without delay. Various other sources of
danger, kissing among them, will occur
to the, physician. A phthisical mother,
by kissing her healthy child, may seal
its doom.
Il*w Deep Doe* th* Earth gk*.
The Mississippi Valley has recently ex
perienced an earthquake shock which for
•everitv has not been equaled for yean*,
sn incident which revives interest in the
query: How deep does the earth
“quake’’ when nature shapes her crust
likt the cyclone does the circus tent?
At Virginia City, Nev., the great earth
quake of 1879 was not noticed by the
miners in the deeper portions of the
Comstock mines. The famous earth
quake at the same place in 1874, which
diook down chimneys, fire walls, etc., and
cracked every brick building in the city,
was merely noticed by some of the min
ers working in the “upper levels,” but
did them no damage, not even shaking
down loose rocks and earth. The station
men in the various shafts felt it strong
sst, and the deepest point where it was
noticed waa by the ninth station man.who
waa on watch at the 900 foot level, which
ia. of course, 900 feet below the surface.
He said it felt like a faint throb or pulsa
tion of air. as though a blast had been
fired above, below, or in some indefinite
direction. In some of the Virginia City
mines the shock was not felt at ail. not
•*reu by station men in the “hafts. —St.

Night in Chicago!
The darkucss was simply intense as
George O’Gaff arrived at the hall door ol
Lite McShaughuessys.
George was madly in love with the only
laughter of the house (and lot) of Me
Shaughuesays. Gladys was her name.
11.
To resume the thread of our story,
Georg* putted the bell. The door w
3|>eued with a sudden swiftness which ir
only possible to a girl on the shady sttl
of 28. as Gladys was.
She atep|>ed out on the stoop
There was no oue thete!
111.
But Gladys thought she heard a fain*
moan, a horrible suspicion crossed hei
mind; raising her right foot carefully
from the door mat she saw something
move, she stooped down, picked it up
brought it into the hallway, looked at it
carefully, screamed,and swooned away.
“It” was George!—Brooklyu Eagle.
l'nl<|ii* l.o** Making.
Here is a romantic anecdote nliout
Louisa Alcott's father and mother. Ass
youug man. Mr. Aicott, so the story goes,
was amamietm or secretary to Mrs. Al
cott's father. The two youug people mel
often, aud naturally fell in love with each
other. Mr. Alcott's social position and
prospects being somewhat uncertain at
that time, he did not feel justified iu
asking this well born aud talented
young woman to marry him. He finally
gave up his position and.thej parted with
; no confessions on either side. It wa*
i agreed, however, that each should keep
a journal, and that these journals should
be exchanged once in so often. Thus
matters went on for some time, he un
willing to ask so much and offer so little,
she willing to give all, and chafing undei
a woman's necessity of keeping silent,
j At length one day, while reading the
journal he had sent her, she came across
a few sentences in which he hinted at hi*
love and unhappiness and wondered what
she would say if he should ever presume
to ask her hand iu marriage. The mo
rnent was a critical one, but Mrs. Alcotl
was equal to it. Seizing a pen quickly
and clearly she wrote underneath : “Sup
posing you ask her and find out?” It is
said that the journal is still preserved to
the Aicott family.
British Pr)l* Touchad.
When three regiments of the English
army took possession of Caatine, Me., in
the last year of the war of 1812, a large
detachment was sent up the river to seize
the neighboring towns. As the red coat*
were leisurely marching through the
country, they saw an old, bent, white
haired mau, sitting at the door of a small,
plain house.
The young officer at the head of the
troops deigned to lay aside military dig
nity for a moment, aud condescendingly
hailed him:
“Old Daddy, did you evet see *o many
men before?”
“Yes,” was the prompt answer.
“And where, then?"
“With Wolfe, under the walls of Que
bec."
The officer stopped. Good natured con
descension to the old Yankee country
man was changed to respect for the
colonial soldier. Oue thousand seven
hundred and seveutv-six and 1812 were
forgotten. He ordered the command to
halt, and with the other officers shook
hands with the humble old mau, proud
to do honor to one who, under the British
Hag, had followed a young, brave general
to his last victory. Youth's Gotnpauiun.
A Noteworthy Kitcpilon.
A severe wind storm was prevailing on
wash day iu the capital city and playing
havoc with the clotheslines. The colored
maid of all work rushed into the house
with excitement written u|>on her dusky
countenance. Emerging from the base
ment, she called out, in tones that car
ried her startled information throughout
the house, aud even to the ears of the
callers in the parlor, “Fo* de Lawd,
missus, all de han’ke'chi’fs don bin stole,
'cept'u de socks!"

To Remind Him.
Tattle Pete is a good boy as well well
as a boy of a great deal of originality iu
his “notions,” but he has the serious
fault of being extremely forgetful.
One day. after having gone on an er
rand and forgotten what he was sent for,
he exclaimed bitterly to his sister:
“Oh dear! I wish I was a snake!"
“You wish you were a snake,” said nis
sister, horrified.
“Yes, and a great long one—as much
as six feet long."
“Why, what for, Pete?"
“So I could tie knots in myself to make
me remember things!”
Remarkable Fact*.
Heart disease is usually supposed to
be incurable, but when properly treated
a iarge proportion of casea can be cared.
Thua Mrs Hatch; of flkhart, Ind., and
Mrs Mary L- Baker, of Ovid, Mich.,were
cured after suffering 20 years. S. C.
Linburger, druggist at San Jose, 111.,
says that Dr. Miles’ New Heart Cure,
which cured the former, “worked won
ders for his wife.” Levi Logan of Bnc
hanan, Mich., who had heart disease for
:30 years, says two bottles made him
*‘feel like a new* man.” Dr. Miles’ New
Heart Cure ia sold and guaranteed by
Feldmever Bros., City Drug Store Book
of wonderful testimonials frae.

“While traveling. ” said a mother, “my
boy of 10 has here. Tore been my great
est responsibility i. a long journey. He
is restless, and likes to go to the door of
the car and wander about. 1 never feel
sure that he will stay in his seal while 1
read or doze. This summer 1 hit upon a
resource by mere accident, tliut got him
easily through a 12 hours' ride, aud some
other mother of an uneasy lad may be
glad to imitate me. He got hold of a
time table, one on which was every sta
tion we passed, and he spent the entire
trip in watching the progress of the train.
He set his watch by the conductor’s, and
w as as interested as the engineer in mak
ing the stations on time. Once the train
hist 25 minutes, which was a real boon,
for until we had made that up iny boj
timed the distances between mile posts
in his desire to watch the train’s spei-d,
and when we got on time again he was
as pleased and proud as if he were re
sponsible. A time table and watch are
the best of traveling companions for
boys. ”
It Was a Woman.
A man was standing on the curbstom
looking at a street vender's sal# Saturday
afternoon, when a horse's head appeared
over his shoulder.
“Shoo, there,” he said, catching the
animal by the neckrein, “I’ll bet a jews,

the police!"screamed an excited woman’s
voice.
i “I don’t want your horse,” said the
man, u ’n' I don't war.t to be driv over,
eyether. Why don't you take to ths
sidewalk and give folks in the street e
j chance for their lives?”
Then he jumped back as a whip struck
the horse, aud as he looked after the re
treating vehicle he chuckled:
“That's right! Mash 'em! Run ’em
; down! Drive over them! There ought
to be a law to compel folks to stay in the
; house when women go out driving. It’d
save lot* of lives. "

“For the aching back—should it be
slow in recovering its normal strength—
an Allcock’s Porous Plaster is an excel
lent comforter, combining the sensation
of the sustained pressure of a strong
warm hand with certain tonic qualities
develored in the wearing- It should be
kept over the scat of uneasiness for sev
eral days—in obstinate casea'for perhaps
a fortnight.
“For pain in the back wear an All
cock’s Porous Plaster constantly, renew
ing as it wears off. This is an invaluable
support when the weight ,on the small
of the back becomes heavy and the ach
ing incessant.
