THE QUEEN'S HEALTH •
Requires More Care -The Physicians Have
Ordered a Stricter Regimen.
A despatch from London says :—The
fact that the Queen's health is feeble
has obliged her physicians to order a
stricter regimen for her. Early in the
morning she has a cup of cocoa and a
thin slice of toast. At noon she takes
an egg beaten in wine. At 2 o'clock
the has luncheon, which is the heav-
iest meal of the day. This consists of
soup, fish, and fowl. Then she takes
short repose, followed by a drive or a
walk. At 9 o'clock dinner is served.
Her Majesty then drinks watered clar-
et or a glass of dry charapegne. She
continues her regular official work,
signing papers dealing with State mat-
ters before luncheon.
Diphtheria. From a Dog.
A pug dog wandered into? the resi-
dence of Mr. Astley, of Indianapolis,
three weeks ago, and Raymond, the 9 -
Year -old child, insisted on keeping it as
a pet. Its throat was swollen and it
had a cough, but the parents humored
thit child and the dog remained. Ray-
mond has since developed a ca,s6 of mal-
ignant diphtheria, and the family physi-
cian believes that the disease was con-
tracted from the dog, and this theory
seems to be corroborated by the fact
Shat the child has been expoeed to the
disease in no other way. •
