LUMBAGO.
This distressingly patntul affection is
tnustoutar rheumatism Ionated in the
large muscles of the loin,
The attack usually comes on quite
suddenly, 'sometimes seizing the suffer-
er in the middle of a walk without the
Slightest premonition. The pain is in-
1ense, and is increased by the slightest
motion of the body,
The victim of lumbago ar any outer
form of muscular rheumatism becomes
paintully aware of the fuel, which Pete
haps he had not before realized, of the
great flexibility of the body, and of the
Intimate relation between the different
parts of the body; for 1t seems impos-
sible for -him to maize any motion
whatever, of the head or of the arms,
without feeling a sharp twinge Irl 1110
back. He dare not turn in bed, lift ies
Shead, or even raise his arms, for every
movement seems to be originated and
performed by the sore back muscles.
There niay be a little swelling at the
affected region, but us,lally there is no
external. sign of the great well of mis-
ery lying just beneath the skin. The
pain lasts a few days or a week, and
may then disappear as rapidly as ft
Came, although there is often consitl-
2'rable soreness or an oeeaslonel twinge
for a day or two.
Lumbago may be distinguished from
pate In the back due to other causes
by the fact that the agony is extreme
whenever the slightest movement Is
made, and isabsent or at least bear-
able when the patient lies perfectly
quiet in bed, and also that the ,muscles
are tender when gently squeezed. The
direction is more eonhnlon In men plan
In women, and attacks adults chiefly.
the muscular rheumatism of children
-taking the Mein usually of wryneck.
'Why this should be so it is difficult 10
say.
Lumbago occurs more frequently in
gruty persons, although that is no ex-
planation, since we do not know wily
the loins should suffer in gouty indi-
viduals more than the muscles of the
meek,
In mild cases the drinking of en abun-
dance of water, to which some baking -
soda is added, may give a measure < f
relief. Gentle rubbing of the ports
with a cloth dipped in ammonia and
hat water wilt ellen mitigate the suf-
fering, and after the rubbing a cloth wet
with this solution may be laid on the
parts and covered with a hot-water bot-
tle.
The diet should, be light, without
meat or highly seasoned food, and
especially without beef tea or meat
broths of any kind. The bowels should
be kept open.
One who is subject to lumbago should
hn careful to avoid a chill, and should
live frugally, avoiding the use of much
meat or highly seasoned food in his
diet, and drinking only plain water or
male.
Sometimes the attacks are prevented
or made less frequent by the wearing
of a broad flannel belt over the under-
clothing. -Youth's Companion.
PROPER TREATMENT OF BURNS.
In cases of burns death may be due
first to asphyxia; secondly, to shock,
and thirdly, to septicaemia, says the
London hospital.
The medical man seldom gets to the
case in time to treat the first condition;
the second Is essentially a general con-
dttig11, while the whole success in pre-
venting the third depends upon the
immediate local treatment. It is there-
fore the last condition which must be
Considered here. Among the public it
is a generally accepted idea that the
Ming to do in the case of a. burn is 'o
dust flour over it or to cover it with
ci1, and indeed, even in soma compara-
tively late text books on surgery a mix-
ture known as "Carron oil" is advocat-
ed.
The use of such applications cannot be
too strongly deprecated, and indeed if
the lay mind could be taught that the
best thing to put on a burn before the
doctor is called Is a hot compress which
'should contain some boracic acid, if
there is any in the house, Itis probable
that the majority di deaths due to sep-
ticaemia after burns would be prevent-
ed.
For the whole aim and object of the
local treatment is to prevent sepsis;
flour and olive ell may be soothing
and may allay the pain, but there is no
antisepifo property in them; nether
they are excellent oulture media. For
'bacteria.
HEALTH HINTS.
Hot water taken between meals fs
good for nervousness,
Glycerine aids digestion, and is fre-
quently prescribed for it. A teaspoon-
ful after meals is taken by many.
Hot mtik, heated to as high e tem-
perature as it can be drunk, is a most
refreshing stimulant in cases of cold
or over -fatigue, Its action is very quick
and grateful. The effect of hot milk is
•fat more beneficial and lasting than
that of alcohol. It gives real strength,
'as well as acting as a fillip.
IL is said that the most nauseous phy-
sic may be given to children without
'trouble by previously letting them take
a peppermint lozenge, a piece of alum,
br a bit of orange peel. Many people
make the mistake at giving a sweet af-
lerwards to take away the disagreeable
'taste; it is far better to destroy it :n

Small doses of cod-liver oil aro very
Useful for children who catch cold
easily. They should be given. two '•r

it is a great mistake to give large doses
of cod-liver 011; They are not digested,
and really do more harsh than good.
They create disgust, and generally lead
to this Merl/eine being given up allo-

Some folks are cantlnun115 having

In reply to our reporter, Mr. Hevt'is
relnlcd the early stages of the attack
and subsequent sufferings which ho ex-
perienced, and while he did not court
publicity, decided that In thep ublic in-
terest he would relate the circumstances
of this wonderful cure. About fourteen
months ago Mr. Harris woke up one
morning with a stiff neck; dry as he
would, and after applying all the reme-
dies externally that he *aid hear er

and shoulders, then to his hips, until
it made almost a cripple of hbn, and
It was with extreme difficulty that he

?covery. However, one medical gentle-
nian Anally recommended the baths,
and as a last resort Mr, Harris decid-
ed to follow bis advice, and went to
Mount Clemens, Alich. As is customary
with all patients, Mr. Harris had to
undergo a thorough examination in
order to determine if the system can
stand this rigorous treatment. After
several examinations had been made
as to Air. Ilarris' condition, the phy-
sicians there finally decided that l:e
was not suffering from muscular rheu-
matism at all, but that his ailment was
cf the nerves, and told him that, the
baths would do him little ar no good;
that he required altogether different
treatment. Me. Harris placed himself
in the hands of one of the physicians
there, and what seemed quite strange
to lune, they did nothing for him but
administer medicine in the shape a 1
pills, Shortly after he commenced this
treatment ha began to improve percep-
tibly, and his appetite greatly improv-
ed He began to walk around slowly
al first, but soon was able to get
around more than he could for a year
previous. He was able to put on his
coat anal vest, and began to feel like
his former self. His improvement was
so rapid sod perceptible not only to
himself, but to others, that he was
plied with all sorts of questions as to
his wonderful recovery. The medical
attendant was questioned as to the na-
ture of the medicine which was being
administered. Much to the surprise ee
Mr. Harris and other patients there, he
was told that it was a well known
Canadian remedy, Dr, Williams' Pink
Pills, and was advised to continue their
use for a time on his return home. Mr.
Harris 1s loud in his praise of the won-
derful curative qualities of Dr. Williams'
Pinlc Pills, end consented to make his
case public in the slope that he might
benefit others similarly afflicted. Mr.
Harris hos long been a resident of
Hamilton, being a well-ltnown builder
of elevators, as well as Government In-
spector of the same, so that his prom-
inence and well known integrity is
evidence that he is sincere in the
statements he made.
HOW MARBLES ARE MADE.
Most of the stone marbles used by
boys are made in Germany, The recuse
bnly of the marble and agape quarries
Is employed, and this is treated in such
tt way that there is practically no
waste. Men and bays are employed to
break the refuse stone into small cubes,
'and with their hammers they acquire
a marvellous dexterity. The little
cubes are then thrown into a mill con -
:Meting of a grooved bedstone and a re-
eo1•ving runner. Water is fed to the
mill and the runner is rapidly revolved
while ehe friction does the rest. :n
half an hour the mill is stopped and
a bushel or so of perfectly rounded
+ntaebles ere taken out. The whole .pro-
cess casts the merest trifle.
India's revenue is now 5245,000,000,
and exceeds expenditure by nearly 510,-

DROUGHT, THEN FROST.
On October 10th, 1816, the same paper
Says :-"Since the first week there has
been a continued 100012hl to the end of
the month; the weather has generally
been very hazy, attended with cold

the north and west part of the district,
which remained at elle dale of our last
report, has been housed and is very fine.

trict a quantity of oats, a great. portion
Of which cannot ripen and must be cut
for forage, The early pens have been

there being nearly one-third that were

was destroyed by the frost of the lith;
it is doubtful whether seed may be ob-
tained for another year. , . , Ths po-
tatoes cannot be rated at more than half
a crop. The meadows have made little
progress since they were mowed ; the
country has seldom witnessed'so great a
want of green food for feeding of stock
as has been experlencs I this summer."
A MOT'HER'S GRATITUDE.
Mrs. V. Ciheoret, of St. Penoit, Que.,
writes as follows: "it is with feelings
o! the deepest gratitude that I write
to tell you what Baby's Own Tablets
have done for my baby. When I be-
gan giving him the Tablets he was so
thin and wasted that he looked like a
skeleton. His digestion was poor; he
was constipated and cried day and
night. 1 got a box of Baby's Own Tab-
lets and from the first they did him a
great deal of good. His food digested
better; his bowels worked regularly; his
sleep was natural; he stopped crying
and began to grow fat. I got another
box and am happy to say before -they
were all used he was in perfect health
and is now a plump, rugged child. 1
always keep a box of Tablets in the
house and would advise other mothers
to do the same." The above is a fair
sample of hundreds of letters that
come from all parts of Canada prais-
ing Baby's Own Tablets. The Tablets
euro all the minor ills of babies and
young children, and are absolutely
sate, as they do not contain one par-
ticle of opiate or narcotic. Sold by
