L1UILeIIIS.
Brats Is le an inflammation of a bur-
sa. or one of the s;tcs et fluid whole
placed t the dilfel eat joints. of the
Lody, table them W do their note
prop.
Th inflammation may be either
acute or chronic. The acute form Ls
ger;-srally the result el a Ih,w or w•oun 1.
Thera is at first an increase o1 fluid
in the site, which presses against its
walls, awl causes swelling, pain and :t
sense of tension. The skin growls real
aid hot, and may he puffed up. After
few days the extra fluid becomes ab -
bei and tt.e symptoms dLsappear.
however. the trouble grows stead -
worse. i1 moms that Instead of the
fluid being absurbed, pus Is forming
'i the bursa. In this case the pain be-
comes very F;: ver° and throbbing in
cl aractcr, the heat, redness and swel-
ling all increase, and there is general
feverishness.
When this condition Ls left untreated,
after a longer or shorter period the sac
will burst through one or more open-
ings, and continue to discharge for an
indefinite period.
In the first and simple foam of- bur-
sitis the le aln►ent consists in rest for
the port rine k'd and the applied ion of
soothing lol.ois, but after pus has
formed the sac should be lanced to give
it free exit.
The chron'c form of burs:his mey fol-
low the mute, when the latter has not
responded to proper treatment or heal-
ed spontaneously; or it may Colne on
gradually, as the result of long•crn-
linue t I noeure or friction. One of the
utast frequent forms of bursitis induced
by pressure is known as Lousemoid's
knee. This is brought on by constant
kneeling on hard floors, and the seine
form is sometimes even in members of
religious orders who kno.l in prayer
for many hours a day on a hard floor
or bench.
The (rouble known as miners' elbow
Ls siinley bursitis of the elbow -joint,
emu is seen in miners who have to use
a pick for many hours a dry with the
elbow pressed against the hard, rocky
wall of the mine. The only way to
trent ttris form of bursitis Is to remove
c cause. No treatment will cure the
useinaid who goes on washing hard
tors in n kneeling posture. With a
change of pnsiton, the fluid may gradu-
ally be absorbed; but if it Ia not, the
sac must be opened and injected with
en irritatinfj fluid, which causes the
walls to adhere. thus obliterating the
bursa; or the entire sac must be re-
moved. -Youth's Companion.
SIMPLE REMEDiF-S.
Remedy for Scald. -A good thing for
burns or scalds is to pour castor oil
over tee wound or t:e white of an egg.
For Cold in llead.-Put a piece ( f
NCher size of an egg in an old sauce
Set fire, burn for a few moments,
taloa out ,then inhale the fumes.
To Ex reel a Needle. -Apply a mag-
net immediately; the flesh closes rap-
idly over a needle, which soon lakes
it out of sight. !( magnet stops the
penetrating movement of the needle,
and in a short lime draw's it free from
the flesh without pain.
Beet Poultice. -Atter having the mis-
fortune of stepping on a rusty nail or
enything of the kind, make a poultice
of grated red [:cels and apply at once.
As it gets dry remove and put on a
fresh one. It will draw out the fever,
so"antss an.t any substance which
might haae gotten into the wound.
Convalescent's '['ray, -To serve meals
to a person able to sit up in bed; Se-
cure from your grocer a cover to a
sugar barrel and remove t110 handle.
41ate the trayctoth and dishes on the

a conunodious tray with an inch rim,
which prevents dishes slipping off.

INDIAN EMPIRE OF TO -DAY
ASTONINIIING FACTS REGARDING
THAT (HEAT COUNTRY.
Eighty Different Languages Spoken
All !Omen Po!EJions aro
Represented.
Sir Andrew Fraser, LieutenantGover-
cor of Bengal, has just is sued a warn-
ing to 4ho native Government about
the violent sieiches and writings of
seditious Indians. It is quite within
the rouge of possibility that any day
we may hear of another great mutiny
in India. When we think of the enurm-
cus interests we have in Idle Earl, it is
eluazing that so little is known in Eng-
lani about that vast continent. here
are a few striking facts, says London
1 d -Bits.
Shared by the 295,000,000 people there
are at least a dozen families of langu-
ages. Somewhere about eighty differ-
ent languages are spoken, of which
[her; aro twenty languages spoken by
not less than 1,000,000 persons each.
English Ls very widely understood,
whit• Hindustani is e
THE PREVALENT LANGUAGE.
There is probably no religion which
is net represented in India, from anca -
tea worship to Scotch Presbyterianism
Nearly three-fourths of the total popu-
lation aro followers of iho Hindu re-
ligion, and (hese, together with ..-e
Mohammedans, comprise nearly 92 per
cent. of lite whole. There are about
3.000,000 Christians.
India possessevs very few foreigners
in proportion to its population. In fact
the dotal number of persons residing
there not born in India, including the
French and Portuguese possessions, is
only Gi2,000, and most of these were
born in countries contiguous to India.
The actual BriUsh-born population re-
siding in India amounts to about 100,-
000; as already mentioned, the popula-
tion of India is 295,000,000, so it will
to 50011 that we rulo India with a mere
handful of Wren.
Actually tate British Army in India
numbers only about 73.000 men, but
the Native army numbers 147,000, in
addition to which there are Imperial
Service troops and also volunteers. The
various feudatory and independent
Stales of India have armies composed
of 32.6.10 men, but the native chiefs toy -
pity offer large sums of money towards
the cost of
IMPERIAL. DEFENCE,
and the Indian Government are engag-
ed upon training and equipping picked
contingents of troops in certain States.
In future the native chiefs will fur-
nish contingents of troops fit to take
their place in line with 4ho regiments
of the Indian Army, the special con-
tingents being known as the Imperial
Service troops. These troops number
1.1,700 men, including sappers and min-
ers, camel and transport corps. in
eddition to this there are a number of
war vessels !belonging to the Indian
Marine, tncludi► the Submarine Min-
ing Flotilla.
Naturally the. pie of India are en-
gaged in every lnagiunble kind of oc-
cupation, but by fur the greater por-
tion are occupied In agricultural pur-
suits, In which conte earth work and
general labor, followed by textile fa-
brics and dress.
The people are very imperfectly edu-
cated, although much progress is now
4•efnit made In educational matters.
Five Universities have been constituted
with n number of aMliatetl colleges, and
public instruction Inas been placed on
A BROAD AND POPULAR BASiS.
\Vtth all this the proportion of the to-
ta' population able to read and write
is still very small. Taking the whole
of British India into consideration, only
about 23 per -cent. of the boys of school -
going age attend school, while there
are only 2% per cent. in the case of
girls.'
As evidence of progress, there aro
774 native papers published in (nein,
these being printed in nineteen differ-
ent iangunges. The vernacular daily
paper with the Threes!! circulation le
the "Gurakhl," of Rumbny, which has n
(emulation of about 5.000 copies, white
the weekly with the largest circulation
i. "Rasumnti," of Cnlrultn, with an is-
sue
ssue of 17.000. About 7.000 'books are
published in the Indian languages dur-
ing the year.

SAVED BY WIFE'S SPIRIT
FOUND AN ENEMY HAD PLATTED
HIS DEATH.
C. N. Durward, a New Jersey Farmer,
Had a Remarkable Warning
Front an Apparition.
Thnt a whispered warning in the dark
by the ghost of his dead wife saved him
the other day from death by assassina-
tion is the belief of Charles Henry Dur-
and, a fernier living in the hills near
Caldwell, New Jersey. this strange story
i; being teed as a clue by the authori-
ties. Durand says that Late Monday
night as he was driving home from
Paterson his horse stopped in the road
and began to tremble. In vain tie urged
the animal to proceed. It would not
budge,
Suddenly the air grew oppresive and
a faint light like distant heat lightning
appeared. Then gradually amid the dint
flushes a white figure assumed a vague
kiln beside the waggon. Durand him-
self began to quake. Ile tried to get out
of the buggy, but his limbs refused to
obey his will. After an interval the ap-
parition in while spoke in a whisper.
Ik recognized in fear and trembling the
voice of his dead wife.
"There is danger at home. Stay away
tin morning," the voice said.
ENEMY HAD BEEN IN HOUSE.
Cold chills crept over Durand.
Scarcely had the supernatural warning
been uttered, when the ghost vanished.
It took the farmer some lime to recover
his nerve, and then he found the horse
would not take a step forward. Ile took
off the harness, and alter two hours'
work brought the animal out of its chill
and - slowly proceeded homeward.
'!'hough badly scared tic did not putt
much faith in the warning that had been
whispered to him in such an uncanny
way. So long had Durand been delayed
by his adventure that it was daylight
when he reached his farm house, which
Is in n lonely location.
Putting the horse in the stable, Durand
entered the dwelling. Ile noticed that a
window on the grcund floor which he
had fastened was unlatched. Next he
discovered muddy footprints on the
floor. As he w•as about to go into his
room upstairs he saw a string stretched
across the open doorway near the floor.
It was just high enough to have caught
hi, foot upon entering. Standing to one
side Durand hooked his embrella han-
dle over the string and gave it a jerk.
PISTOL -FASTENED ASTENED TO BUREAU.
A flash insido the room was accom-
panied by a loud report, and a bullet
burried itself in the wall of the hallway
opposite the door. Durand then ran in-
side his room and found the bullet had
come from a pistol fastened to the top
el his bureau. The trigger had been con-
nected with a string across the door.
The shot would have struck hint in the
breast had he touched the string with his
foot in entering the room.
Durand, who moved to Caldwell from
the West five years ago, says someone,
whose name he will not divulge, evident-
ly had lain in wait for him all night at
his home, and would have killed him but
for the warning from his dead wife's
spirit.

Eight Escaped Frene.t Convicts Will Le

Eight convicts who c -'aped last

desperate adventures in British Guiana.
They arrived off the coast of Essenqul-
be, 400 miles from Cayenne, on Nevem-

boat that wos rapidly sinking. After
a strenuous struggle they reached shore

ger, they greatly alarmed the inhabi-
tants of the township of Anna Regina,
Out a strong body of police took thein
into custody, subsequently releasing
thein on the understanding that they
would at once leave the British colony.
Next day, however, the attitude of the
Frenchmen became more threatening,
and they were sent under a small es-
cort to the county jail at Suddie. At
a desolate part of the road the French-
men overpowered their guard, and es-
cape.l Into the dense bush. An alarm
was carried back to Anna Regina, and
police and villagers set out in their
tracks. For some lime the efforts of
the searchers proved unavailing. Ow-

COUNT'S DARING ESCAPE
IMMURED IN ASYLUM ON ACCOUNT
OF LOVE MATCH.
His Wile, Who Was a Washerwoman's
Daughter, Bribed an Asylum
Attendant.
Count Erasmus Erbach, a member of
enc of the most famous Berman famil-
ies, and until recently heir to estates,
vvorth 81,250,000 a year, has just made
a dranxitic escape 110111 an asylum at
Ahlweller, Germany', uud has disap-
1)0010(1.
'the count was seized at Frankfort -
on -Main on Nov. 29, and forcibly cor-
ned off to the asylwn, where he was
[laced under close guard.
Itis arrest was Made on the appli-
cation of les father and relatives, who
declared that he was insane. The proof
(f this insanity lay in his romantic mar-
riage with Dora Fische, ttie pretty
(laughter of a washerwoman. When
the count refused to give up his wife,
A SPECIAL TRIBUNAL.
was appealed to, and the marriage was
declared Holt and void.
'['here was n further development in
the romance later on, when the count
was formally dispossessed of all rights
of succession, and his uncle, Count Ar-
thur, was elected In his place.
Count Erasmus' escu.po from the asy-
lum was planned and executed by the
washerwoman's daughter. Tho plucky
girl -wife acted with great energy and
determination from the moment of her
husband's arrest. She first bribed an
attendant of the asylum and persund-
co item to help the oount to obtain
',leans to escape from the building.
Then stie worked out detailed ar-
rangements for his flight outside, and
:through the attendant oommunicalled
her instructions to Count Erasmus.
OFF ON MOTOR CAR.
The attendant supplied the count with
a stout rope, and early one rnorning
the count made use of the rope to low-
er thimself from the window to the
ground. The descent was extremely
perilous, owing to the great height of
the window, and the least slip would
have caused the count to drop to cer-
tain death. Fortunately, no nrishap oc-
curred. and Count Erasmus got away
without molestation to a spot where his
wife was waiting with a powerful mo -
kir car.
T.he fugitives dashed off at express
tcpeed across the Swiss frontier, a dis-
tance of a little more than 200 miles.
They intend to be married again in
Switzerland, and thus defy the count's
pa rents.
The asylum attendnnt has also fled
for fear of punishment for the old he
rendered to the fugitive'.
