The Gainesville Eagle. Thursday, May 10, 1906. ALL OVER THE HOUSE. Symptoms Which Foretell Diseases of Children. Many children when complaining of feeling ill are more or less neg lected by parents who attribute their complaints to overfeeding, a slight cold or something of that sort, and nothing further is done than to pet and coddle a child who is really in need of a physician’s care immedi ately. Consequently the disease gets a firm hold, and often a doctor is called in when too late. A mother can always tell that a child has measles when the eyes and nose are watery, as in an ordinary cold in the head. A rash appears on the face and neck in small spots after three days and then spreads over the body. In winter measles are very serious, for should the child be weak any exposure to cold will bring about a bronchial trouble or perhaps pneumonia, and the child ever after, if it should even recover, would have weak lungs. Measles are contagious. The child should be kept in a darkened room, a doc tor sent for and his instructions carefully followed. Scarlet fever comes, as a rule, sud denly, with sore throat and high fever. There is vomiting, and a red ness covers the chest and upper part of the body and quickly spreads. Refurbishing Oilcloth. Directly oilcloth begins to show signs of wear and tear and loses its shining surface melt a little glue in a pint of water by letting it stand on the top of the stove until dis solved. Wash the oilcloth thorough ly and let it dry and at night just before going to bed go over the whole surface with a piece of flan nel dipped in the glue water. In the morning there will be a fine gloss on the oilcloth, and it will look as good as new. For Chapped Hands. A salve to cure chapped hands or lips can be made of marrow of fresh beef bones, add a small piece of white wax about the size of a filbert nut, melt these together over the fire and add to this result a piece of gum camphor about the same size as the wax and an ounce of glycerin. Stir this until the camphor is dis solved and add a few drops of oil of roses to give a pleasant odor. Ap ply this to the chapped parts before going to bed. Treatment For Cuts. A bad cut can instantly be re lieved by applying diluted tincture of arnica—one part arnica to ten parts water. Draw the edges of the cut tightly together and bind up well with a piece of clean linen or cotton soaked in this solution. Sticking plaster should not be ap plied to a cut until it has at least stopped bleeding. Indelible Ink. Indelible ink for marking linen may be easily prepared at home by putting two inches of lunar caustic in an ounce bottle and filling the bottle up with good vinegar. Be careful that the bottle is perfectly clean or the result will not be sat isfactory. Cork tightly and leave in a sunny place for two days be fore using.. Poverty Pudding. Put a layer of apple sauce in a buttered pudding dish'; then a layer of cracker crumbs or bread, sprin kled with bits of butter and season ed with spice to taste; then a layer of sauce, and so on. The upper lay er being of crumbs, lay bits of but ter on the top and bake. Eat with eream. Washing Stockings. ‘Unless washed with great care black stockings soon turn a greenish color. They should be washed with soap that is free from soda and rins ed in water to which a teaspoonful of vinegar has been added. When damp press them into shape, but do not iron, as the heat tends to destroy the color. Sunday Freight Trains. The supreme court of the United States dismissed for want ot juris diction case of J. N. Seale vs. State of Georgia, involving the validity of the Georgia state law prohibiting the running of freight trains on Sun day. Seale is superintendent of South ern Railroad Company and as such was indicted, tried and found guilty in Habersham County in 1903 on charge ot violating the law. He took the case to Georgian su preme court, which sustained the law and affirmed the sentence of the trial court. The effect of this de cision is to leave in force the finding of the Georgia court. CONDENSED STORIES. Joke of the Freshmen Had an Unex pected Climax. “Nutsy,” the janitor in a fresh man dormitory at Amherst college, was in the habit of extinguishing the corridor lights at 11 o’clock each night. The freshmen planned a joke on “Nutsy” and arranged a pail of water over a door where a certain light was in such a manner as to au- >lEWfe====- “WELL, BOYS, LET’S LIGHT UP.” tomatically tip over on the janitor on that auspicious night and pre pared to watch the fun. Night came, and with it “Nutsy,” and the freshmen all apparently asleep. “Nutsy” extinguished the light, with the desired result. He opened one of the dormitory doors and called out, “Well, boys, let’s light up.” And there, drenching wet, to their consternation stood George Harris, D. D., LL. D., pres ident of Amherst. “Nutsy” happen ed to be ill, and the president him self had attended to the duty.— Boston Herald. A Change of Occupation. “Jacob Riis, the sociologist,” said a lawyer of New York, “has a soft heart. His sympathy flows out in every direction. The poor have in him a true friend. “Mr. Riis sat in my anteroom one morning waiting to consult me. Near him a young girl clicked busily away on a typewriter. She was pret ty and neat, with clear eyes and soft hair, but perhaps she was a little pale. “As Mr. Riis regarded her, so young and fresh, working hard in a stuffy office while her more fortu nate sisters were riding or motoring in the park, he felt sorry for her, and he said gently: “ ‘Do you never get tired, you young stenographers, of eternally pounding away upon those keys?’ “ ‘Ah, yes, we do indeed/ said the young girl. “ ‘Then what do you do ?’ Mr. Riis asked. “ ‘Then, as a rule/ she answered, smiling, ‘we marry our employers.’ ” —New York Tribune. How the “Devil” Got Even. The late S. D. Farnsworth of the firm of Goodale & Farnsworth, pro prietors of the Manchester (N. H.) American, in the days before the war, was a unique swearer and when perplexed or annoyed expressed his feelings freely in a choice mixture of profanity and pure English, ut terly regardless of all rules of syn tax and prosody. On one occasion, thoroughly aroused by some performance for which the little “devil” of the office was responsible, Mr. Farnsworth “let out” upon the youngster with some of the choicest specimens of his manner of expression, seeming ly crushing him with the weight of words. After the explosion the boy look ed up at the tall man and exclaim ed: “Huh! You are a good one, you are. Been through college and can’t swear grammar.” Boston Herald. Put In Plain United States. It was in a case before the su preme court of Maine. A party had sued the Boston and Maine railroad to recover damages for personal in juries. The company’s attorney, Mr. Yeaton, was examining the plaintiff, a rather illiterate man from one of the rural districts, and was endeavoring apparently to con fuse him. “Did you say an abrasion of the tibia?” he asked. The witness stared helplessly at his questioner. “I say,” again ventured the at torney, “was there a contusion of the scina ?” The witness was ready to collapse when his attorney, Lawyer Cope land, who had a voice like a mega phone, cried out, “He wants to know did he bark his shin!” THE GAINESVILLE EAGLE, MAY 10,1906. WITH THE BOYS IH BALLDO*. EDITED BY H. B.- C. JUNIORS BEATEN IN HOSCHTON. The Gainesville Juniors’ nine, consist ing of boys under fourteen years, but all good players, were beaten by the Juniors of Hoschton Saturday with the score of 14 to 4in their favor. The Juniors from here did not have all their “men,” and as they got the word from Hoschton at almost train time, they could not get up all their players. But they did the best they could and, although they were beaten, they enjoyed the trip finely. FLOWERY BRANCH BEATS NEW HOLLAND. The Flowery Branch nine won off the New Holland nine in a fast game at the Park ball grounds Saturday, with the score in the ninth inning 9 and 10 in Flowery Branch’s favor. Bickers Kicked by a Horse. Mr. Sam P. Bickers had his skull frac tured late Tuesday afternoon by a kick from a loose horse on the public square which he had gone out to aid others to catch. The horse was the property of Mr. E. E. Buffington and was loose on the square when Mr. Bickers and others went out to catch it. Mr. Bickers was approaching the animal when it whirled and kicked, striking him on the brow near the juncture of the right eye and nose, fracturing the skull and making an ugly wound. He lost consciousness only for a few moments and after being helped to his feet, with a little assis tance, walked to Robertson & Law’s drug store, where Dr. Robertson dressed the wound. The fracture is something over an inch long and a probe would easily pass through to the brain. After the wound was dressed Mr. Bickers was carried Home and at this writing there are no serious complications. At the regular communication of Etowah Lodge, Masonic, it was de cided not to have celebration until later in the summer or fall. Wanted. I want two one-horse, second-hand Spring Wagons. R. H. Smith.
