Diphtheria, Dr. Young, secretary of the State board of health, says there is a misapprehension in the public mind regarding the eonta giou8Dess of diphtheria. The direct com munication of the disesaa is shown by a young lady who cams home sick with diphtheria in a mild form, and on her arrival her brothers and sisters embraced her.. They were all attacked with a maglignant type of diphtheria, and one died. The same young lady visited her aunt in another family where there were four children who took the disease, and one died. No other casts in the vicini? ty. Another instance: At the death of a child from diphtheria two women, helped in laying it out. One of them, who was 58 years of age, was attacked in a few days, and died in three more, aud the other took the disease in a mild form and recovered. Another case is that of a boy who had diphtheria in Boston. He cams to this State to visit relatives. In a few days after his arrival bit aunt washed some of his clothing, and was taken'1rTth~] diphtheria lbs ueal WeetTand it went -through the family, four cases. Before the aunt was taken sick the boy went to another place and played with another boy, who took the diphtheria and gave it to two-other persons in that family. The doctor reports a sad cast follows: An only child was taken sick with diphtheria and died on the fourth day. The young mother in her grief | kissed the child and took the disease. Within a week she was burled beside tba child. In a neighborhood where no diphtheria had existed for four years a school teacher visited a city?a notorious hotbed of diphtheria. He-contracted what ha called a alight sore throat. He returned home with this still npoa him and opened school; in lea than a week six wera lying sick with diphtheria aud the school was cloud. The result was five deaths, three of which were adults. In one family three children died of j this disease in the croupous form. The nune believed it' was not possible to carry tha disease in clothing, and would not change her dress upon leaving the house and was not afraid to take her children in bor lap upon going home. Shd weo admonished against such a fool* hardy aoarca. Tan days after aha left the infested house the physician was eallad and foaad her family ill with diphtheria of the most fatal form. Ons child died in thirty-six hours after it was attacked. Another cose?a woman died of diphthe? ria In Lynn, Mass. Her son brought her clothes and bedding home. Hit wife washed them, took the disease, and died in less than a week. The doctor aaya that oases like these, which unmistakably show tha ooBtagloot natura of diphtheria, are innumerable, and at tha same time thsro are endless instances in which diphtheria has not been communicated to others exposed to it. This does not prove that the disease is not contagious. All persons are not susceptible to ths infeotioa. He says another thing which makes the infeotioa of diphtheria doubly dangerous k its persistent vitality. Unless carefully disinfecting be taken, the infection will survive to start mysteriously another epidemic at some future time, months or perhaps years afterwards, like the follow? ing : A boy visited a family in Eaatport, where there was- a case of diphtheria. He took the disease in a light form and recovered. Upon his return home his sister, aged 16, took the disease and died in three days.' Six months afterward another sister came from Massachusetts and occupied the room which had been the tick room. She took the diphtheria and died after five weeks' sicknett. Soldiers "Under Flro." There is nothing to correspond with the feeling experienced by a soldier under fire. Take, for instance, the average man, the man who is neither very brave nor a great coward. In all his life he could scarcely have had any sensation to com? pare with that of hearing the ping of the first bullet of an approaching fight. There is a spiteful sound us the ball Bings by the ear, or a spitting sound as it cuts a twig above the soldier's head. Then there is a disagreeable searching sound as the shell comes in spirals, as if to twist itself into his virtals. No man knows until he has once been under fire whether he can depend upon himself or not. With the majority it at once be* comes a etruggle between pride, will, a natural desire to stand up and be a man, and a natural temptation to flinch. There is a wonderful readjustment of the standing of officers and men in a command after the first fight. A number who have been regarded the beat men lose their high places in a twinkling, and here and there some one of whom noth? ing was expected steps right up to the front. - Some men who will face any amount of musketry firing can't stand the Bound of a shell; and vice versa. It is a mis? take to suppose that a soldier gets ueed to "fire" by beiug exposed in a number of battles. With each battle he becomes more timid. Yet veterans are more to be depended upon than raw troops. This is partly because they are hotter disciplined, part? ly because they have gone through simi? lar scenes, aud partly because tbey are more reliant on each other and their officers. It is truo,.men will in a measure get used to fire by being long exposed to it, as at Vicksburg. There the Union troops were under a continued regular fire for months. Being for the most part well protected, they soon taw that the shells did comparatively litte damage, and tho projectile which curved in the air to light among them did not excite anything like the trepidation a similar first shot would excite out on an open field. In other words, they became in a measure accustomed to the bombs. Bravery, a* it is usually understood, is largoly dependent upon physical condi? tions, and is supposed by some physci ian9 to come from the action of tho heart. It is said of Napoleon I that under the moBt profound excitement, ou the eve of battle, his puke never ran above some forty to fifty beats the minute, whereas the average pulse of adults is about seventy. Whether bravery is the result physical cal condition or no, it is certain that it is much easier for Bomo men to bo brave tbau others, and many hold that all men are cowards at heart. At any rato Fred? erick the Great once said that a man who has never felt fear has uover snuffed a candle with his fingers. Dwellers Among the Mountains, The mountaineers are a quaint people. Many of them cannot read, and, curious? ly, ?very man who cannot road votes the EeptiblicEn ticket; whereas every intelli? gent man, except bot and then one who is seeking ofSc*, i? a Democrat Thea* dwellers near tbs mountains, never having owned slave*, and taking no in? terest in the issne of the war from a Southern standpoint, simply would not become soldiers. Hence, during ths era of the conscription they sought the mountains. Large numbers of them made their homes there during the period that the war lasted. Their families would send provisions to oertain desig? nated placet. They could hunt and hah. They wert perfectly secure, for from mountain peaks they could see long dis? tances down every valley, the only route by which soldi ere could be tent after them, and to by the time tbt arresting parties reached their localities they could be many miles away, safely hidden in the rocky defile*. - '"~" The mana?r*_of toe'people are primi? tiv?.

Paper Bottles, One of the most interesting of the many use* to which psper hat bean put is the manufacture of paper bottles. We have long had paper boxet, barrels, and car wheels, and more recently paper pails; wash basins and other veasels, but now comas a further evolution of paper in the shape of psper bottles, which are already quite extensively used for con? taining such substances at ink, bluing, shoe dressing, glue, &c., and they would seem to be equally well adapted for con? taining a large variety of article*. They are made by rolling g? A sheets of paper into long cylinders, which are then cut into suitable longtht, topa and bottoms are fitted in, the Inside coated with a waterproof compound, and all this done by machinery, almost as quick? ly as one can count. They are cheaper and lighter than glass, unbreakable, and conteqnsnlly very popular with consumers, while the fact that they require no packing materi? al and are clean, handy and economical, commend* them to manufacturers. Un? like glass they can be manufactured and shipped at all seasons; and, being made by machinery, the supply is independent of labnr troubles, which are additional advantages to manufacturers who use bottles.?Soientfiic American.

Then his face brightened up. "Why, I do remember now, bat the truth Is McOook offended you, Blackburn.. He owes yoa the apology. McOook and Blackburn looked at etch other long and earnestly.

ClOYClauu'fl Kcraarltablo Individuality Pic? turesquely rictured. Boston Globe. Washixoton, May 7.?Cleveland lias changed and upsot Washington as gener? ally as a first-class cyclone could change and upset it in the same length of time. No other President since he was born has had his own way so entirely. He has pulled the partisan fangs out of the opposition Senate and taken the reluctant and doubtful House under his arm. The generally turbulent and unruly larger ranch of Congre33 never behaved better than it is behaving this session when the President's influence is supreme and- his connection close. His enemies in the party that he has transformed cannot 2nd a rival to rally around. The suggestion of any other name for the head of the Democratic ticket of 1888 is instantly recognized as no less ridiculous than the mention of j his own name for the place would have been in the Cincinnati Convention of 1880. What wonder is it, then, that Washing? ton is bewildered ? Men are continually coming from the outside country in search of high information. They see Washing? ton beating about helplessly, under the ehadow of the strongest and the grimmest personality of recent times. They see the old stagers here afoot and a good deal' dazed. To these latter it seems as if the strange man on top had even swallowed the points of the political compass. So all wait on blm while he waits on himself, without a confidant and a counsellor as surely aa he ia without a master, His indifference to the town is unconcealed. As soon as he got to the White House be discharged the Presi? dent'! valet. He has no more use for a stenographer than a piano. He often fills a half dozen pages with his own fine writing in addressing a subordinate about ?ome business matter. Although a thorough believer in him? self, he has never been guilty of displaying or betraying the least bit or cheap vanity. He is a President without a clique. For the first time in a long while the White House is without a set. What other motive can such a man have except patriotism ? I cannot see any reason for bis taking a second term other than he cannot finish the people's job in time to go out next March. What personal reason could he possibly have for staying? He has already got the name of the thing. He will never get any fan out of it, But here he sits, pegging away, and the good fortune that some of the greatest men in history have chased until they died, comes rolling up hill to his feet. The chesnut phrase in the news of the day looks something like this: "All the dele? gates are for C ovo land." The unique? ness of this situation may possibly be appreciated when it is recalled that only thirteen of Mr. Cleveland's twenty-one predecessors were ever thought of when the time came to choose their successors. Only eleven Presidents ever made their second appearance in the Electoral College. For twenty years tho Democrats have been running like whiteheads from the high tariff whoopers. A few months ago Cleveland stopped running; the almost breathless party also halted. Instantly the pursuers paused. Then the pursuers and the pursued faced each other. Next, with the battle cry of the President's message on their lips, the low-tariff crowd sprang at their adversaries, who quickly turned tail and ran like so many Beared steers. They are still running. The Democratic party can not be put on the defensive in this canvass. There is not a single thing to defend, and noth? ing to attack. What has the administra? tion done for which it would be wise to assail it before the people ? Although he has dealt out death to the Republicans, the President has probably caused more pain among the Democrats than among their enemies. After living for twenty five years off the husks of opposition, we may soon come to see that when let into the crib of plenty the party's own best and permanent interests needed just such restraints as were imposed ou it and just such lessons in self-denial as were taught it by the man who opened the door. To Mr. Cleveland a party is simply the means, and is not the end. He had always been a Democrat, but he had not let the Republicans bother him much. Whether the situation to-day is the result if a deliberate and consistent policy of j the President's or not, it is still certain that the Democracy's condition is much better at the outset of this than it was at the outset of the last campaign. The President's course in the matter has been to treat all the factions to an occasional see of cold shoulder, This is an entirely new treatment for the troublo, but it may have done some good. This will be the eighth re-election of a President. Mr. Cleveland will be the first, however, to gain that rare glory by the plain and single works of peace. Every other President who has had a seoond term came out of war. They were all men on horseback. Here's to the man afoot I "Did n't Know't was Loaded" May do for a stupid boy's excuse; but what can bo said for the parent who sees his child languishing daily and fails to recognizo tho want of a tonic and blood-purifier? Formerly, a course of bitters, or sulphur and molasses, was tho rule in well-regulated families ; but now all intelligent households keep Averts Sarsaparilia, which is at once pleasant to tho taste, and tho most searching and effective blood medicine ever discovered. Nathan S. Cleveland, 27 E. Canton st., Boston, writes: My daughter, now 21 years old, wa3 in perfect health until a year ago when she began to complain ol fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness, indigestion, and loss of appetite. I con? cluded that all bor complaints originated in impure blood, and induced her to take Ayors Sarsaparilia. This medicine soon restored her Wood-making organs to healthy action, and in due time reestab? lished her former health. I find Ayer's Sarsaparilia a most valuable remedy for the lassitude aud debility incident to spring time." J. Castright, Brooklyn Power Co., Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "As a Spring Medicine, I find a splendid substitute for tho old-time compounds in Ayer's Sarsaparilia, with a few doses of Ayer's Pills. After their use, I feel fresher and stronger to go through the summer." Ayer's Sarsaparilia, rar.tared nv Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass. Trice tl; six bottles, $5. 'Worth $5 a bottle.

We must eat or we cannot live. This *<ve all know. But do w? all know thai wo die by eating ? It it said we dig our graves with our teetL How foolish this sounds. Yet it is fearfully true. Wc are ter? rified nt the approach of tho cholera and yellow fever, yet there is a dis? ease constantly at our doors and in, our houses for more dangerous and destructive. Most people have in their own stomachs a poison, more alow, but quite as fatal as the germs of thoso maladies which sweep men into eiornity by thousands without warning in the times of great epi? demics. But it is a mercy thatf if we are watchful, we tell when we are threatened. The following are among tho symptoms, yet they "do not always necessarily appear in the same order, nor are they always .the same in different cases. There ia a dull and sleepy feeling; a bad taste in the mouth, especially in the morning; the appetite is change? able, sometimes poor and again it aeems as though the patient could not eat enough, and occasionally no ?^appetite at all; dullness and slug? gishness of the mind; no ambition to study or work; more or less head? ache and heaviness in the head; dizziness on rising to the feet or moving suddenly; furred and coaih ed tongue; a laenao oi a load on the stomach that nothing removes; hot and dry skin at timea; yellow tinge intha eyes; soanty and high-colored urine; sour taste in the mouth, fre-< ?uently attended by palpitation of be heart; impaired vision, with spots that seem to be swimming in the air before the ?yes; a cough,: with a greenish-colored expeoto ration; poor nights'rast; a sticky slime about the teath and gums; bands and feet cold and clammy; irritable temper and bowels bound up and costive. This disease has puzzled the physicians and still puz? zles tbem. It is the commonest of ailments and yet the most compli? cated and mysterious. Sometimes it ia treated as consumption, some? times as liver complaint, and then again as malaria and even heart dis? ease. But its real nature is that of constipation and dyspepsia. It arises in the digestive organs and soon affects all the others through the corrupted and poisoned blood. Often tho whole body?including the nervous system?is literally starved, even when there is no emaciation to tell the sad story. Experience has shown that there is put cue remedy that oan certainly cure this disease in ail its stages, namely, Shaker Extract of Koota or Mother SeigelV Curative Syrup. It never fails but, nevertheless, no time should be lost in frying other so called remedies, forr they will do no good. Got this great vegetable preparation, (discovered by a vener? able nurse whose name is a house? hold word in Germany) and be sure to get the genuine article. r\ GIVEN UP BV SEVBtf D0CT?B3, " Shaker Extract of Roots oar Sei Sel's Syrup has raised me to good ealth after seven doctors had given me up to die with consumption.?.

Evans, of the firm of Evans & Bro., Merchants, Horn town, Accomack Co., Va., writes that he had been sick with digestive disorders for many years and had tried many physicians and medi? cines without benefit He began to use Shaker Extract of Roots or Sei fel's Syrup about the 1st of Jan. 887, and was so much better in three weeks that he considered him? self practically a well man.
