HOW IT FEELS TO HAVE CHOLERA.
Physician Describes the Symptoms and
the Remedies Used.
" During the year 1806," said the Doctor,
"I attended sixteen patients alarming with
.A.eiatic cholera, Fotzeteen of these were
located in New Yorle and two in Cincin-
nati, 0, In, the paso ten yaws I have sue -
easefully treatec1 four cases right in New
York city. I claim that there is no inviol-
able rale for the treatment of a Cliciera
patient. So much depends upon the physi-
cal state of the subject that a akilful physi-
eters will vary the treatment to a greater
or less degree, according to his judgment.
• "11 stricken with the malady, see a
phyaieian at once. Do not attempt to allay
your suffering by home doctoring. Do not
allow yourself to beeome panic-stricken,
»or, on, the other hand, should yon laagh at
precautions deemed necessary in an emerg-
ency of this kind. 'Familiarity breeds
coutempt' of death and disease as well as
other evils, aod as we have become -more or
less familiar with reports from the pest
ships down the bay, there is perhaps as
math danger of the spread of the disease,
should it gain a foothold, as from the leek
of eeriousness with which many regard it.
If you are attacked with symptoms of the
disease while on the street, go to the near-
est hospital, or ask to be token there.
" Among the methods by means of which
I have succeeefully treated twenty patients
is the following : Give one drop of carbolic
acid and two or three of bismuth in mucil-
age at intervals of twenty minutes until the
vomiting is °sleeked. Then endeavor to
cheek the dierrhceal cliatharge by meaue of
astringents. Sometimes a preparation of
opi tun or lead is very effeetive. An appliea-
tion of hot water bottles will prevene
ity. If the d larrhcea continues and becomes
excessive administer one-sixth of a grain of
morphine and 1-120 of a grain of atrophia
in fifteen minims of distilled water; means
while feed the patient with cracked ice
continuallyto allay the fever. Sometimes
a rectal injection of laudanum and weak
stareli is most effeetiee in gradually stop-
ping diarrheeal discharge.
".After having treated sixteen, patients
successfully in this manner I was myself
taken down with the malady. My symp-
toms commoneed -With a rice water dm -
charge, continaing for hours, Then follow-
ed severe cramps, eacompanied by proftise
vomiting. The ermines in iny lege and con-
tractions of 0011114801es of the body wore
somethingterrible similar, I imagine, to
the effeet.produred an a man being shoeked
by elecarteity. Through all this I aeoer
lot consciouenese but a feeling of complete
indifference overcame me. I did not care
whether I lived or died. This feeling of
utter apathy always accompanies an attach'
of genuine cholera, The first symptoms of
the disease developed at 3 o'clock, and the
diarrham, Mantled for six hours, during
which time the discharge amounted to a
bueltetftd. The vomiting lasted for only
one hour.
"There was given to me a half teaepoon-
ful of laucianum every forty minutes, also a

Thoughtful Charities.

Lions and Buffaloes. .
A well-known traveller in Africa says
that an one of his long journeys he came
across the dislocated skeleton of a buffalo
almost intermingled with the broken bones
of a lion, tho skull of which was lying near
at hand, but devoid of the nasal bones. The
ground evidently was the scene of a desper-
ate combat in which both animals had sue -
climbed.
It is a common practice among lions, this
gentleman says, to hunt in company. A
friend of mine in South Africa had a pecul-
iar example of this. His friend V— had
wounded a bull buffalo, which had retreat-
ed within the forest. The two hunters
carefully followed the blood -track, but after
a short advance were startled by a succes-
sion of load roars, which betokened lions
nclose at hand.
There could be Retiedoubt that the
wounded. buffalo had been attacked. There-
fore, with proper precaution, they approach-
ed the spot natal an exciting scene present-
ed itself suddenly on the oeher side of a
large fallen tree, which happily concealed.
the approach cf the two hunters.
Three lions were engaged in a, lifeeturl-
death combat with the gallant old bull, who.
made a desperate defence, first, knocking
over one of his enemiee, then goring another
to the ground, and exhibiting a strength
which appeared sufficient to defeat the com-
bination.
Suddenly the buffalo fell dead. This was
the result of the original wound, as the rifle
bullet had passed through the lungs. .
The hons were not aware of this, and be.
gate to quarrel among themselves about their
imagined victory. One huge beast reared
to half its height and placed its fore•paws
upon the body of the prostrate buffalo,
while at the head and the hindquarters an
angry lien clutched the dead body in Its
epreading paws, and growled at the roues-
sor of the centre. This. formed a grand
picture within only a few rade' distance,
but two rifle -shots stretched two lions roll -
Ina upon the ground, and the third bound-
ed in to the thick covert and disappeared.
help, and has won their confidence, knowe
bow bitterly girls complain of former tuts -
tresses who gave those in their employ
scarcely enough to eat. Thin is the kind of
woman who offers ber half -worn garments
to girls in lieu of their hard-earned wages.
Then, again, there are many good -mean-
ing women who never think of giving away
a garment so long as it eau be made over,
notwithstanding they mey be well able to
buy new.
One woman confused, when the subject
was brought before her ia this light, that
she believed she really enjoyed & remodeled
dress more than she did a knew one, and
she knew she nearly alway spentithe money
saved by her economy in some foolish,
thoughtless way.
And there are other women who will sell
the cast-off olothing of the family for a trif-
ling sum or e new tin pan or a pretty erne -
molt. I have seen good weolen dresses,
wraps, men's clothing, babys' flannels, laid
away to be eaten by moths •' they were not,
needed, and the thought of doing good with
them uever entered the owner's mind, or if
it did she did not seem to know how to go
about it.
Now, nearly all of us have among our
circle of acquaintauces some industrious,
proud -spirited little mother with a houseful
of little ones and a limited purse, one who
finds it almost impossible with all her
thrifty management to keep her children
looking as well as their associates. She
would be thankfulito have some of those
things ; they may prove to be a blessing in
disguise, if given her by kind words, tem-
pered with tact. If you know of no cme to
whom such a gif t will be acceptable or you
fear giving offence there are other ways of
disposing of old clothes, whoro they can do
great good. The argament is brought up
that so many of the improvident poor ac-
cept them without gratitude and wear them
out withont taking a stitch in them to pro-
long their days of usefulness. This is true,
in a meaeure ; but there are many institutions
which care for the eh ildreu of hard-working
mothers, and wilt gratefully accept castoff
'clothing, make them over for those under.

flow to Attain Long Life.
The primal qualiacation, for reaolti -g old
age is an inherite 1 tendency to longevity.
This 1E1 a different thing from goaa health,
and does not even fully correspond to what
is known as is sound. rionstitution.
Anothor essential to longevity consists in
regular and temperate habits of living. In
studying the habits of persons who have
reached advanced ago, it is found that in
the large majorityo. cases great moderation
in eating and drinking has been the rule
throughout life. Gluttony is an missy to
both health and longevtty, while as to alco-
holism WO have the testimony of the presi-
dent of one of our oldest life Maumee cone,
viatica that " amoug imams selected with
care for physical smuttiness and sobriety,
the death -rate is more profoundly affeeted
by the use of intoxicating drinks than from
any other amuse apart from heredity." An-
other rule, which Is found. to be almost uni-
versal among very aged people, is that they
have all their lives been in the habit of go-
ing to bed and getting up early. They have
also avoideil dissipation and fast living in
every form.
A third requisite for reaching: old ago is
healthful employment. Idleness is a greater
foe to length ot days than overwork. That
occupation is to bo preferred which gives
exercise to both body and mind, under the
influence of pure air and. healthful surround -
logo, without being extremely severe or in.
volving too many hours of work.
The final necessity for him who would
grow old gracefully is a cheerful diapositiou
and the habit of looking on the bright side.
Passion strains the heart to its utmost ;
melaneholy freezes the blood; and. worry
wears out the best years of a man's life. No
one who habitutaly indulges these or kin-
dred emotions has half a chance of reacbing
• advanced life. It was the advice of a man
of ninety not to worry. "Don't worry about
what you can't help," he seid, "for it will
do no good. Don't, worry about what you
can help, but go to -work and help it,"
Sound advice this for all. who aspire to be-
come no nagenarians.-gx.

Operators in the Wheat Market.
That the current prices of wheat are af-
fented by the operations of " bulls " and of
"bears," of those dealers that is, who wish
to toss up prices, or those who wish to
trample them down, is not open to question.
That those men issue frsudulent reports as
to the stocks on hand, as to various bar -
vests, as to prices elsewhere, as to future
prospects, is notorious. That speculators
sell what they do not own, and bay what
they never intend to own; that they prac-
tice every conceivable triok to get an advan-
tage over others, is well known. That, at
times, they make a fortune by a stroke of
luck, and lose heavily also„ now and again,
by overreaching themselves in trying to
cheat others, is well understood. Bat that
such rascals, for such these operators are,
really control theprices of wheat for any
i
lengthy term is mpossible. The higher
they hold.priees against the natural tendency
downwards, owing to ample supplies, the
greater the drop is wh ea the strain is broken.
Men might dam the riaagera River so as to
step the Falls, but the dam wo aid burst some
time, a.nd their natural level would be reach-
ed swiftly. Speculators may lift or epress
prices for very brief periods, but they can-
not affect the general average of a e ear.
The world's wheet field is now too large ;
the sources of supplies too wide spread ; the
markets are too extensive; the facilities for
moving stocks too great, the information at-
tainable as to supply, consumption, and efis.
mand, is too generally available, for any
permanent effect on prices to be produced
by any gang et speculators. It is said that,
when rognea fall oat, honest meu get their
own," so the continual fight between
" hulls" and " bears" keeps the prices of
wheat from being controlled by either one
set or the other. Sudden changes may al-
ways be suspected; unless some extraordin-
ary calamity has suddenly fallen upon the
harvests of this continent, or Europe, or
India. .A little watchfulness will enable
wheat holders to, avoid either selling too
eoon, or too late.
