F. A. BRECK. Something About Pins. Hid you ever r-top to think where the pins < "me from, and how they are made? 1; will bo interesting for you to learn some thing of < ven so little a thing as a pin. Some of you may have seen them making pins at the exposition in Atlanta several years ago, but you do not know nil the de tails. Bins are made by machinery, and it would be impossible for you to count litem as they fall so rapidly from the. steel lin gers of the machine. This machine was first invented by a Massachusetts man many years ago. but at that time It was hard to get patents, and SO. as he diil not r. ••elvc encourage ment in his own country, he took tr to Englai ■! and got patent, it proved a great suce. and Xpert were sent from Amer:, a to get some ideas about the, invention, wit:, h they did, and so you seo tlte manufacture of pins was again brougnt to Ann :•:.it, v. !>•:• it was first invented. The mt.;, i: .1 in making pins is an alloy >1 tv. . I HIS of copper to one of zinc. This nto t m ss of metal about six feet in length, three inches wide d h ilf as thick.

Eadies and Gentlemen—ln the lectures | that have preceded this one we have fo'.- | lowed chronic catarrh through the va- I rious passages and cavities of the nose. I head and tliro.it; and have finally reached the lungs. When catarrh reaches the , lungs it becomes what is popularly known as consumption. AVhiio the catarrh was in the head it was probably call- <1 catarrh. When it reached the throat, however, it was called by various names, such as ten silitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis, etc. But. as as We have already learned, it Is the : ime old catarrh. When 1 tel. a patient lie has catarrh of the lungs, the sumo catarrh tiiat lie us-.l to hiV' in Hie head or throat, t is easy for him to umierst imi what I me in. But if I tell him he has phthisis or tu berculosis J have only mystified him. (A lady rose to ask: "Hoes catarrh of the head or throat always precede catarrh of tho lungs?’’) It is my opinion that it does. Os course, ther. are ome eases wh. ro the exist'” co of catarrh had not t cen suspecte I before the consumption developed. But my ex .e --rience in this very class of cases leads m ' to believe that a careful examination of tile ease would have revealed th" existence As soon as chronic catarrh reaches the lungs proper, that is to . ay, the air ce .s, it. produces in these delicate cells the suno condition of th.- mucous im mbrane that it produced in the h. ad and throat. The mem brane Is Hii. kened, the mucus secret, d by th. membrane liecom--.- abundant ami thick. Tin- air colls are Inimedfately fi led with th;,; secretion, part of which may bo cough.-d up, but mo 41y it remains in the cell to dry up ami become a cheesy mass ca!!"d tubei 'les. (A do :or asked- "Do inn, then, regard tubercles an effect of consumption rather than a < ause? ") I do.
