The toxin, as this bacteria -produced poison is called, is In 11112 last instance imported, while In the first two cases mentioned It is, as (L were, of domestic manufacture -therefore obtained more easily and in greater quantity. These three forms are called in medi- cal language, septenhia , pyemia and saprentfa, respectively, meaning septic germs in the blood, pus in the blood, and the products of putrefaction in the blood. The pyemia form Is characterized by irregular chills, fever and sweating, and the formation of abcesses in Various parts of the body. 11 is very commonly faLnh Seplemia resembles pyemia in its symplonse, except that the fever is more continuous, not being interrupted by chills es 11 is in pyemia, and there is abscesses.

Sapremia any terminate fatally, but It yields more readily to treatment. This consists in umnngement of the wound, opening it up to the air, culling away the festering purls, cleansing the surface thoroughly, and treating it with anti- septics. DRY TOAST HEALTHFUL. A good many people would eat toast oftener than they now do if they were not under the impression that toasted bread [snot gond for the general health. From a leading medical journal cones the announcement that toasted breed is very wholesome even for invalids. One thing in Its favor Is the feet that it places a lighter tax on the digestive functions than ordinary bread, since during its preparation some of 'the starch grains of the flour are ruptured, while some are converted into dextrine, winch is easily soluble. Further, the crispness of toast neces- sitates its being completely moistened In the mouth before it eon be swallowed. As a rule, therefore, toast is thoroughly submitted to the action of the prelimin- ary digestive process in the mouth. iL is important, however, that toes) should be crisp all through, as otu'r- wise the internal portions tend to be- come, plastic and soft, like new bread, and like it, difficult of digestion If not thoroughly masticated. TACT AND GOOD CHEER. The restorative power of good cheer is far greater than 111edicin0, and men- tal depression is the true physician's worst enemy. It is the lane of u sick room and the shackle upon recovery. In fact, the menta attitude is • respon- sible for more ills than all other causes put together. If a nurse cannot control her feelings. or the exterior manifestations of therm, her usefulness is turned into useless- ness, and anything useless in 'a sick room is positively harmful. The jest has an important part to play in the sick room as a remedy for irritability, says "Woman's Life." Don't tell long stories, don't talk about some other person's triols, end don't think up miserable Possibilities, The keynote to successful nursling is order, observation and obedience,these qualities joined with Illat-the want of which is the base at nearly every silt welch a nurse may commit -make for the Ideal -sick room attendant.

The Number is Growing at an Alarming Rate. A most disquieting volume for the. Griti..h reader is the sixtieth report of the Commissioners in Lunacy. From this it would appear that lunacy is In- creasing In the British Isles in a most °terming fashion, while 111e cost of muinlniuing the pauper lunatics appears to be rapidly mounting out of all pro- portion to .the numerical increase. As showing what a burden they are to the British taxpayers, one finds from the report that 122,000 persons were detained last year at a cost of 15 shil- lings a week each, every penny of which had to be fuund by the efficient 7110111- kers- of the community. in less than fifty yea's the number of insane ]les more than trebled. From 30,000 in 1850 it has risen to .182,000, an increase which is parallel to the recent increase in the unemployed and pau Pers. .4n importent Becton of the report deals with the question how fa'fnsan- ity is due to heredity. The number of C2008 ol111011 can be definitely ascribed to this cause is given at about one- quarter of the total. One startling feature of the report Is that annually some 8,000 poisons are discharged from asylums as nominally recovered, such persons, as is known from experience, being a sourceof dan- ger of centime -when to Ole population, But over and above this is the large number of patents sent into freodofn every year "not recovered." Last year there were 1,972 of such end the report calculates hot "rather more than one-third of the discharged, including in this calculation those whc have nominally recovered, have to be sent beck to the asylums." There is, accordingly, a constant stream of lunatics flowing out of the various asylums as w011 as a huger flood (hut Is always flowing Inward, This, of course, helps the production of hereditary lunatics. One-sixth of the woolen more than 20 yeasts old admit- ted into asylums during the last four years were widows. Less than one- tenth of the men admitted were widow- ers. • AN INGENIOUS TRICK. Clever Woman Swindler With a Taste for Diamonds Secures Some. A story of an amazingly audacious swindle conies from Madrid, Spain. The heroine is a handsome, elegantly -dress- ed woman, who, the other day, visited a specialist In mongol diseases on be- half of her husband, w110, she said, was n sufferer from religious 1111111111. Hav- ing explained the case it was arranged Ilial she should return In about an hour with the afflicted husband. The next scene of action was a jeweller's shop in another part of the city, where she se- lected diamonds to the. value of $5,000 on the understanding that she would buy them If her :husband approved. Would someone accompany her hone In a cab, and the money would be paid Immediately? A trusted oleek wes sent, and with 111m the lady drove back to the doc- tor's house. In on ante -room she tools the stelae) "just to show then to her hit hand;" then, entering with sublime asserimee (lie ('lector's study, she In- formed the specialist that her husband wet ulnv in the mute -Poon and ready In be examine(. l.,enving a visiting card, the lady took her departure, and the doctor, bidding the supposed pati- ent enter, proceeded at his leisure to ask professional questions.

He was at the time riding a good horse and gaililped quickly away at about 15 miles an hour, the mob following him for the distance of about two miles and a hall. He believed he would have lost his life but for that fact. 1--- ---,ea A SPLENDID TRIP. fn i The way" aY ` to le a trip to the 6 Old World is to tithe the White Star Line steamers from New York or Bos- ton to the Mediterranean ports. For those who enjoy a sea voyage, this trip cannot be equalled in interest and va- riety and in the quality of the accom- modation afforded by the magnificent boats of this line. The inexpensiveness cf the trip when the above points are considered Is not the least interesting feature to be -considered in planning a European trip. The sunt of six dollars a day will pay -for every item on a III - teen day trip in the best. first -cabin ac- commodations. The meals provided are the equal of those to be had in the finest hotels in the world, and the service In every particular is absolutely beyond e! eleism. There are a thousand and one little kindnesses for 1110 passengers' com- fort. A line orchestra is on every steamer, and everything Is done to cater to the best class of passenger trade. The steamers themselves are all large, comfortable boats, with unusual deck room for promenading and exer- cise, and are particularly well ventilat- ed, and therefore suited to the warmer southern voyages. Passengers are afforded an opportun- ity of spending a day at the Azores, at Gibraltar, and at Palermo, and Naples, where they may disembark or continue on to Genoa. Even in the heated months this trip is most enjoyable. The weather 15 particularly pleasant and the sea always smooth in duly and' August, and no better way can be found of spending a month's vacation than just the trip over and back in one of these floating palaces. In the winter there Is no way the equal of this for reaching the heart of Europe or getting to Egypt or the Far East. Six young men went out for a sail or the River Shannon, near Limerick, on Sunday, the 15th ult, When three miles west of the city the boat was struck by a squall and capsized, with the result that five of the occupants were drowned.
