Then hold the cup over a fire, so as to fill the air with fumes. The little patient on inhaling the fumes will cough up and spit out all the membraneous matter, and the diphtheria will pass out. Thefumes of the tar and turpentine loosens the mat ter in'the throat, and thus affords the relief that has baffled the skill of the physicians.

We are glad to notice one of our leading' paper's: the _Empire, now coming for- ward to revive the project and give it an impetus b}- offering a large and handsome flag for competition among- st the schools of each county. The flag is to be the Dominion flag, twelve feet long, and is to be awarded to the school in' each county sending in the best easy not exceeding 600 words, written by a pupil, on the "The Patriotic " Influence of Hoisting the Flag on the- Schools" The movement is'not a political one in the party sense, and can be heartily approved by all citizens- who `look to building up and perpetuating patriotic sentiments in our country. The old British flag may be "only a bit of but around it cluster memories rl which make the pulse beat faster and the bosom swell with .pride—memories, too, in which Canadians as such can proudly claim a share—and the hoist- ing of the flag ort the school houses to. remind our children of memorable days in our history will tend to raise up a generation proud of their country and prepared to emulate, if need be, the deeds thus brought to mind:. The idea of a competition which will stir` up a discussion of historic and patriotic svb- jects in every school section of the pro- vince is a good one, and we: hope it will be entered into heartily ` by the young people of this county.
