A SOUTHERN QUESTION.
HOW TO PREVENT THE RISE AND
SPREAD OF YELLOW FEVER.
Dr. W. C. Van Bibber, a prominent
physicanof Baltimore,Md.,has published a
paper recently nad by him before the
Baltimoic Academy of Medicine, upon
the prevention of yellow fever in the
South. Dr. Van Bibber s treatise is a
notable contribution to the literature of
the terrible scourge, and abounds in val
uable suggestions as to the best means of
guarding against its rise and spread. Ar
guments are forcibly pr< sented in favor
of improved sanitary methods, and a
more enlightened system of quarantine
in Southern cities. Upon the question of
proper sanitary conditions, Dr. Van Bib
ber says:
“In 1881, a paper was read before the
American Public Health Association, at
their meeting in Savannah, Ga., under
the title of ‘Two Suggestions Concern
ing Healthy Buildings.’ The first sug
gestion made was ‘to build houses upon
arches or piers in low flat grounds.
Man has the privilege of building under
his own con rol. He must take the
earth as he finds it, but one style of
buildiDg may be more healthy, conven
ient, and salubrious in one situation than
another. Ip stead of springing the
houses out of the ground in low flat sit
uations, it is better to interpose a stratum
of air between the house and the ground.
If the house be' built well up off the
ground, and the earth paved beneath it,
with no enclosed yards, then continued
cleanliness could be easily maintained.
The surface ventilation of the air would
be one prominent advantage of this style
of building; surface drainage, an easy
abatement of certain nuisances, with
consequent increased healthfulness and
comfort.would be the result.
“If Maeclenny and Jacksonville and
Decatur had been built in this way, and
had been kept according to the intention
of such a style of building, their inhabi
tants would have been saved the recent
epidemic. This plan of building the
houses well of! the ground, upon arches,
columns or piers, with clean hard pave
ments of brick or concrete underneath
and around them, I regard with great
favor; it would not only be an improve
ment in itself, but would bring after it
many other. improvements. The objec
tions which have been raised against it
are the expense, the inconveniences and
the danger from violent storms. The ex
pense might be a littie heavier at first,
but if all did it, this increased expense
would soon be equally distributed—if
the house cost more to build, the work
men would get more for building it, and
in this way it would not be considered a
burden amongst the poor. As to incon
veniences, if there be any, they are not
worth balancing against the gain, and
habit would soon make It cease to be
felt, llie danger from violent storms
could be overcome by the supports of
of chimney stacks sprung from the
ground, or by supporting towers or
beams, by means of which the houses
could be firmly secured, and all danger
averted.
“It is difficult for some minds to divest
themselves of the early bias which they
have had from infancy, from building on
the ground with cellars, and pits and
sinks. These arc not suited to low flat
lands in a warm climate; a sufficient
standard of cleanliness cannot be main
tained in their presence, or where they
exist. The question as to how high the
building-line should be] off the ground,
is an important one, if it ever comes to
be considered as a matter of statute en
actment.”
Upon the subject of the quarantine
of the future, Dr. Van Bibber says:
‘■•Let us speak of the attractive quar
antine of the future. In this, you will
see four houses situated at a proper dis
tance from each other, in the most ac
cessible point of the state, built and ap
pointed in a manner not only to make
them most efficient for the comfort of
the sick and afflicted citizens and stran
gers, but to serve also as schools and
models to teach private citizens how they
can preserve amongst themselves con
tinued cleanliness and give no foothold
to preventiblo disease. The humblest
man in the commonwealth cannot then
plead ignorance as to how he should and
must build his house and manage his
domestic affairs, so as to preserve his
own health, not injure that of his
neighbor, nor impair the reputa
tion of his state. These four
buildings should have ample communi
cation with each other and the out
side world by telegraph, telephone, and
what other appliances the future may
have in store. Then no one who is quar
antined will feel himself isolated or
harshly treated. The visitor from abroad
and the denizen can alike receive and
send messages from and to all points.
“In these estadlisbments, all knowl
edge of yellow fever is to be centered;
here the disease can not only be treated,
but studied under tho- most favorable
circumstances; and from them, all nec
essary rules for its prevention should
emanate. They should be under the control
of the board of health, who should be well
selected and thoroughly competent, and
they should see that nothing be wanting
to make the establishment as homelike
and attractive as the most agreeable re
sort.”
A Snake that Killed Eleven Men.
Those who wish to enjoy a novel
sight, and one, if we believe the card
that speaks its history, that is calculated
to strike terror in every heart, should
visit the lower portion of Fulton street
and in a cigar store near the ferry they
will find a snake fully ten feet long nice
ly coiled up in a glass case. The card
whereon is written the history of the
reptile, says that the snake came from
the Isthmus of Panama, where it had
killed eleven men in eight months.
These men were all at work on the
canal and had many times attempted to
kill the snake. The story runs that the
Bnake was killed one evening by a negro
who discharged a load of buckshot at it
which nearly severed the head of the,
serpent. —Brooklyn Citizen.

Contest Over a Live Man’s Will.
A contest over a live man’s will, the
testator himself being the defendant and
appearing on the witness stand, was the
novel proceeding recently held before
Judge Ingraham and a jury in New York
city. Henry Welch, a wealthy grocer,
hale and hearty, but of prudent mind,
concluded last winter to have his will
drawn up, so in case of accident to him
self his affairs would be found in apple
pie order. He employed an attorney-at
law named Seaman to prepare the docu
ment. W hen Welsh handed him a rough
draft of it, the attorney found that the
testator wished to leave his property in
a very peculiar way. The laws of the
State of New York forbid that a man
should leave over one half of his proper
ty to a charitable institution.
The will testified that after the death
of the testator’s wife and if the testator’s
only son should die without heirs the
property was to go to various charitable
institutions. Seamen had a hard time
overcoming these difficulties. At
the same time he drew up a will for
Welch, for which he charged S3O. In
making out his bill to Welch, in
view of his trouble, study, etc., Seaman
charged SIOOO. Weldh refused to pay
and Seaman sued him. Welch testified,
and his testimony was listened to with
great attention by a large crowd. The
jury awarded Seaman sooo.- San Fran

Typewriter Speed Explained.
“Typewriter contests," said a pretty
operator as she clicked away at her
machine and a Cincinnati Gazette man
kept tally with his pencil, “are decep
tive as to the speed achieved by the
operators. You read in the newspapers
that 'Mr. McGullum wrote 125 words in
one minute.’ True, he may have writ
ten 125 words in one minute, but they
were very short words and words se
lected with especial reference to the
nearness of the letters forming the word
on the keyboard of the machine. For
instance, I can write 100 ‘the’s’ on the
machine in a minute, but do not say be
cause of that that I can write 100 words
a minute. As a matter ot fact, the high
est speed on a typewriter is seventy-live
words a minute. By that, I mean to
take up and write for some time that
many words a minute of matter selected
from the newspaper, matter that the
operator has never seen before. That is
the only true test of a typewriter’s speed,
and very few operators come up to that
standard either."
LONGEVITY.
Scientific men see no reason why the span of
human life may not be extended to a round
hundred years from the present limit of seventy
t ’ eighty years.
The age to which persons lived varies in Old
Testament chronology.
From Adam’s time to that of Methuseluh and
Noah, men aro recorded as attaining to well
nigh the ago of 1,000 years. The Psalmist Da
vid, however, says : “The days of our age are
threescore yea! s and ten ; and though men be
so strong that they come to fourscore years, yet
» their strength then but labor and sorrow ; so
soon pa-seth it away, and we are gone.”
This wide margin of longevity, together with
proper observance of mental, moral and physi
cal iaws, leads investigators to believe it is pos
sible that human life might be made to in
crease in length of days to a full century, at
least.
Moderation and regularity in eating, drinlc
ng and sleeping are conducive to longevity,
and those who observe proper habits and use
pure and efficacious rem dies when sick, m«y
accomplish immense labor with no apparent in
jury to themselves and without foreshortening
their lives.
Hon. M. 11. Warner, President of the Roches
ter, N. Y., Chamber of Commerce, and mmu
facturcr of the celebrated Warner’s Safe Cure,
has devi ted much time and ri search to this sub
ject of longevity, and has arrived at the satis
factory conclus;on that life may be prolonged
and man’s virile powers increased and preserved
it the same tinr- by rational and natural means.
Thousands of persons are living to-day—enjoy
ing the hi ssing of perfect health and
vigor—who will testify to the almost magical
efficacy of W mer’s Safe Cure in restoring them
to physical po ency and to the normal type of
constitution, after they had almost given up
hope of life.
After middle age. many begin to lose their
wonted vigor of body, anil thereupon give way
to inermess and useless repining. Yet all such
have within reach that which both renews youth
and contributes to the prolongation of life.
Warner’s marvelous Safe Cures are in every drug
store, and are now regarded as standard specifics
tin oughoutthe civilized world.
The strong desire to attain old age—mean
time retaining the viri.e powers of body and
mind —is necessarily connected with the respect
paid to aged persons, for people would scarcely
de-ire to be old, were the aged neglected or re
garded with mere sufferance. That is a high
civilization in which age is made a source of dis
tinction. Of all marks of respect, that to age
is most willingly paid, because every one who
does homage to age may himself, eventually
become an object of such homage.

In These Days when food adulteration is so
common, it is a comfort to find an article for
the table th tis thoroughly reliable. Walter
Baker & Co.’s breakfast cocoa is eminent in
this limited class. No cliemi als are used in
its manufacture and it is absolutely pure. It
forms moreover a delicious and healthful
drink, as refreshing and more nutritious than
tea or coffee,and free from the injurious effects
that those beverages sometimes produce. And
it is very cheap withal. The house of Walter

A Hundred Teas of Money.
It hardly seems possible that the money paid
n one month for a ten-ceut article, could, if
>ennies were used in payment, weigh one hun
dred tons. Yet one of our bright school boys
Ua3 figured that this is true of Diamond Dyes.
I’o judge from the stocks of our dealers in dye
stuffs. Diamond Dyes own the field of package
dyes, and are a complete success. Of co rse
they have imitators. “Nothing is a success
until imitated." But no one wants to risk a
counterfeit when th genuine can be obtained
at the same price. Three new colors have
lately been added to the list of Diamond Dyes:
Fast Stocking Black, Turkey Red for Cotton
and Brown f r Cotton. The manufacturers.
Wells, Ric' ardson & Co., Burlingion, Vt., will
send colored -amples of these new dyes, with
book of directions, to any address, free of
charge. These additions seem to have made
(he line so complete that any shade can be
matched with some color of Diamond Dyes.
The beautiful sample book of shaded colors,
lately sent to all dealers in dyes, will delight
the eye of any lady. “It’s easy to dye with
Diamond Dyes,” is so absolutely true that
home dyeing is no longer a difficult and dis
agreeable task. Almanacs, with their hints as
to proper times for different work,tells us that
now Is ■he time for Spring dyeing. This, to
gether with the thought or tha' hundred tons
of money, leads us 10 ask what school boy can
flgurs how many thousands of ladies aro now
saying that this is the time to use Diamond
Dyes.

CUPID’S HARNESS.
Most women naturally look forward to matrimony as their proper
sphere in life, but they should constantly bear in mind that a fair, rosy
face, bright eyes, and a healthy, well-developed form, are the best pass
ports to a happy marriage. All those wasting disorders, weaknesses, and
functional irregularities peculiar to their sex, destroy beauty and attract
iveness and make life miserable. An unfailing specific for these mal
adies is to be found in Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It is the
only medicine for women, sold by druggists, under a positive guarantee
from the manufacturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or
money will be refunded. This guarantee has been printed on the
bottle-wrappers, and faithfully carried out for many years. SI.OO per

Fatality of the Fidelity Bank Fail
ure.
It would seem as though a kind of
grim fate hung over everybody connec
ted in any way with the unfortunate Fi
delity bank of Cincinnati, either with
its failure a couple of years ago or the
subsequent proceedinys affecting it. It
was something like what has been called
“Guiteau’s curse,” that is supposed by
some to impend over the personages
participating in the trial of tho Presi
dent’s assassin, though in the case of
the Fidelity bank no one appears to
have strewn any curses around promis
cuously. In tho first place, Benjamin
E. Hopkins, the president of the bank,
who was sentenced to seven years im
prisonment and recently pardoned,
died a few days after his release. E. L.
Harper, the vice-president, was given a
ten years’ sentence and went insane.
Amzi Baldwin, the cashier, committed

THS WS2LS CU3HT ■jTOENOV IT.
The world ought to rTI know vrnat B S. S. has
done for me in the cure | r#J of a malignant Cancer,
which was so bad as to ■■■ be considered incura
ble by the physicians in Chicago, where I
went to be treated. One IfJ lof my neighbors sent
me a copy of an advertisement in regard to
Swift’s Specific, and IHHH began taking ft. I got
relief from the first few F #".l doses; tho poison was
gradually forced cut of I*7 j my system, and I was
soon cured sound and BfSjSgg well. It is now ten
months since I quit tak- BHBR ing S. S. S. and I have
had no sign of return of the dreadful disease.
