GRANULAR EYELIDS.
Treehama, or granular eyelids, is tlae
disease which the autlioritie$ ere steer-
ing so hard to keep from lamming Ls.
tubliShed in this country. It, already
prevails here to a considerable extent,
but it could bo overcome 11 fresh cases
could be excluded; and -. le is because
many wouldebo immigrants suffer from
it that they are turned back fraiu
thee() shores every year..
ft Is a disease which .allele chiefly
the poorest classes in Europe, especi-
ally in Russia and Poland, and its
spread through contagion is increased
by the dirty and unhygienic surround-
ings in which these people live..
The disease Is extremely cdnlegious,
and if Letroduced into a public selwol
fe likely to attach a very large number
Of the pupils unless it is early recog-
nized and the sufferers are excluded.
The inflammation, which soon becomes
chronic in its 'course, involves at fil:si
the mucous membrane which lines the
lids, but is almost certain., if neglect-
ed, to spread to the covering of thb eye-
ball. If the lid is examined it will be
seen to be studded on its under sur-
face with a number of little round bodies
of a grayish -white color, embedded in
Me thiekened mucous membrane. The
upper lids droop, so that the eyes are
only half -open. After a lime the eyvs
itself becomes affected and the cornea
grows opaque. This leads to more or
less complete biindness-
The treatment of granular lids must
be energetic, and begun early, if relief
le to be hoped for, since the disease is
a progressive one, which advances
steadily to scarring and impairment Cf
vision Unless checked in time.
The treatment is one calling for the
skill of the physician. Domestic reme-
d'es are useless, even harmful, since the
epplication of them causes dangerous
delay and postpones the institution of
scientific measures of relief,
For the protection of others It Is vit-
ally that'
Ythe sufferer uf[erer freta
granular lids should have his own toilet
articles,—soap, towels, and even wash-
basin,—which must an no account be
used by - (liens. The towels and hand-
kerchiefs used by him should not go
into the common wash, and should al-
ways be thoroughly boiled for ten or
fifteen minutes and ironed with as hot
an iron as can be used without scorch-
ing. It is only by the exercise of per-
sislent precautions of this sort that the
other members of the family can be pro-
tected.—Youth's Companion.
TRY THE VIGOROUS THINK.
Nothing reacts so favorably upon the
various functions of the body as strong,
vigorous, mental exercise. Nothing
else will lake the place of clear forcible
thinking. It is a perpetual tonic. Use
your brains, and bodily strength will
follow. It is well known that great
thinkers are longer lived, as a rule, than
indifferent thinkers.
A celebrated English physician seys
that to attain a long life, the brain /lust
always be active When not asleep, and
he lays great stress upon the necessity
of everybody having a hobby outside of
the vocation which gives him a living.
This hobby must be one in which he
lakes real delight, one which will ex-
ercise pleasantly and agreeably, without
unduly taxing his mental faculties.
Nothing will destroy itself quicker
than an idle brain. 1f there is anybody
in this world to be pitied, it is the one
who thinks he has nothing to do; no
motive to impel him out of himself; re
ambition which will exercise his brain
or his Ingo -wily, and call out Incire-
sourcefulness or exercise his energies.
ONIONS AND PNEUMONIA.
The following remedy is said to be a
cure for pneumonia: 'fake six to ten

STANDS BY GUILLOTINE.
A French Poet's Queer Excuse for the
Block,
In a newspaper symposium of the best
known French authors on the question
of whether or not tine death penalty,
recently practically abolished in France,
ought or ought not to be restored,some
interesting and original replies have
been 'evoked.
Almost all the literary men who at-
tempt to answer the question declare
against the guillotine. They cite as a 1
principal reason the frequency of anis- h
carriages of justice, and take the view
that it is better that many miscreants
go unscathed than that one innocent
person' should suffer death.
Taking the contrary view of the sub-
ject, Mistral, the Provencal poet, whose
mediaeval dialect revival hes won him
1111 enviable reputation and esteem,
/lakes an astonishing reply in verse. 13e
Bolds in his stanzas that a strong peo-
ple of de's will require strong -]landed
'us:I •e. Tile presumable consequence
in the mind of the poet, is that if the
French people yield to delicate scruples
on the subject of beheading, and become
sr, squeamish and molly coddled that
they cannot bear the thought of pulling
to death any human being, no matter
what his lack of deserts may he, France
will have taken a long step on the
downward path which leads to the level
upon which the feebler-nlindeel nations
stand.
General nallifet replies hunormisly:—
"\Vbeether it collies to 111e from God i r
from man, death will be no penalty to
me."

IN PIUINGIPLI:,
The Toronto General Hospital is mak-
ing a series of tests of -a 'new theory"
in medical edema, which they claim will
revolutionize the theme, and practice of
medicine. 'trio system is, "Find the
germ of any disease, then by a method of
increasing the patient's aNilly to digest

while corpuscles of the blood and tilling

with serum, make his recovery cos

aunl's theory of thirty yeiu's ago, Dr.
T. A. Slocum said : "The white corpus-
cles of 1110 blood aro the foe of disease,
11 1 con sufficiently increase these and
strengthen digestion and circulation, i
have solved the problem of overcoming
disease," Dr. Slocum devoted his life to
the working out of this problem. When,
after innumerable experiments through
days and nights and months and years
of patient labor, he discovered that
wonderful re'ine(ly, Psycl'iine he ex-
claimed "Eureka, I have found it." Foe

PLENTY OF SELF-CONFIDENCE
Is another valuable asset, for if people
see that a man ttnoroughly believes in
hinmsei ill b
f, they w e 1 arch more in-
clined to believe in hint.
Another thing. of primary Importeece
is that a num .,should start eery. Many
men waste years of their lives; at ex-'
pensive schools, instead of worsting at
the professions. essions for which they
are in-
tended:
Indeed, I wtl7 go so far as to
say that after the age of sixteen any
Time spent otherwise than In the work
of ht's profession a-flleli is wasting. AIL
the education necessary to the practi-
cal. affairs of 1110 can be obtained by
that time. Such studies as Latin and
Greek are of iso real use b1 everyday
natters; it would be Inc batter to de-
vote the time instead to French, Ger-
man and Spanish.
In many cases financial assistance at
the outset of a man's career is a great
etrawback. The best way to keep the
brain busy is to keep the stomach

his own resources and let himknow
CAL he has to work. There is nothing
worse than for a young man 10 feel
that he has a private income of, say,
£500 a year, which makes it unneces-
sary for him to succeed at anything at
which he may try his hand, No, if he
has to mance his own living he must be
up early, he /lust go to bed' early, he
mast use enthusiasm, and 1110 very best
of his brain -power, and, he /lust be
very wide awake indeed
ALL 1 -IIS WORKING DAY.
Of course a certain amount of ' out-
door exercise is essential, but the young
men of to -day devote far too much time
to football and cricket. They lose sight'
01 the fact that games such es these
ere only a recreation, a diversion, and
not part of the serious business of life.
Success was never reached by putting
play first and work afterwards. And,
after all, the pleasure of work is greater
than the pleasure of play, The busy
man may not have five minutes to spare
from the time he gets up in the Morning
1111 the time he goes to bed et night,
but you will not find him miserable on
that account. You will find him far more
cheerful and pleasant than the man who
has nothing to do all day. Work gives
a zest to life that nothing .else can give,
and only unremitting work can lead to
success.
Finally—what is success? Well, 1 will
define 1l as getting what you want, do-
ing what you set out to do, and then
having the disposition to matte the best
use of it.

Among the many good qualities which

is their efficacy in reducing inflamma-

many loiters of recommendation from
those who were aliliobed with (his com-

They affect the nerve centres and the
blood in a surprisingly active way, and
the result is almost immediately seen.
