" ‘szr. : HEALTH. A NEW DISEASE. An eminent medical authority who has devoted a great deal of time to the study of woman and her nerves has given the name of " house nerves " to the peculiarly distressing as well as depressing set of ailments with which people who remain indoors too much are afflicted. The name of the disease is certainly commendable, for, as one writer re- marked,‘there was nothing to prevent its scientific godfather from saddling his child ' with " aekoganglia,“ or some other name that would be equally ter- rifying to the unsophisticated. As house nerves, the ailment can be treated with far more complacency. At the same time, the disturbance is not to he laughed at nor treated lightly. A writer in the Calcutta Medical Re- vlew says: " All over Europe the rush of existence is playing sad havoc with our sensitive ccrebroâ€"spinal fibres. \Ve recognize all the symptoms which the inventor of house nerves describes as quite common in England to-day." They are low spirits and brooding over wrongs, sometimes real, but more often has inary; great irritability and a mor _id habit of mind generally, This same authority tells us that wo- men who are inclined to be delicate and who are afraid to go out owing to the weather are those who suffer most from his malady. They are always imagin- ng that something terrible is happen- g to their husbands or children when they are out of sight. They con'ure u accidents of all sorts. analyze t air I .lings and lose their power of will. This all happens because people are too sedentary and stay at home too constantly. Unfortunately, a housewife, as her name lmplics, is one whose duty is to stay at home for a considerable part of each day, and all the mischief arises from her Inability ’to tear herself away from home ties and to forget all about them in some form of out-ofâ€"door amusement or occupation. The woman who gets house nerves usually begins to study herself, her wants, ailments, and loneliness to a painful degree, until at last she thinks she. is on a fair road to an asylum. Putting aside the possibility of the asylum one must admit that there is a. deal of truth in the idea that "all home and no spree makes Jill a dull she." Not on y is it very likely to make her dull, but there is always a possibility of converting her into what neurologists call a "nagging woman "â€"one who through constant nagging drives her husband to the public drinking house or is the means of his iving her suf- ficient cause for asking or a legal scp~ aration with alimony and an allowance for counsel fccs. There. may be happy landsâ€"say Boeo- tin or the peasant state of Bulgaria-- whcre nerves are unknown. Nerves are believed to effect the inhabitants of Southern Europe far less than those of the north. The difference is probably due to the climate; that of southern Europe allows of life being passed more in the open air, and sunshine and ozone are known to be great nerve tomes. In llussio nerves are attributed to‘the consumption of tea and Tolstoi. ‘ Europe is not the only sufferer from the disease. There is no country in the world where house nerves are more common than in the United States. Fortunately for those. afflicted the disease is not without a remedy, and the prescription is a simple and very a rccable one. There is no help to be ogtained from drugs or doctors; all the tonics and wines and doors pre- pared by the. chemists only tend to make. matters worse. ' All that has to be done is to take walks in the Open air and sunshine, pay visits to others, attend teas With- out drinking too much tea, and go in for gayoty and innocent amusements generally. Morbid thoughts must be rcprcsscd us they arise, or they should » be expelled by thinking of a necessary duty. _ _ Of course. it is much eaSicr to we this advice than to follow it. host persons when suffering from nerves would be glad to repress morbid thoughts, but. it seems the more. they try to repress them the more morbid they become. Not only adults but lit- tle children also suffer from nerves. They should be. sent out. to play With merry companions, whose _merriment, however, should be sufficiently ducd to spare the “house nerves" of other people. _ Bicycling, tennis playing. and horse- back riding are very good in the treat- ment of nerves. FOR (‘OLD FEET. The association between cold feet. and elecplcssness is much closer than is commonly imagined. Persons with cold feet rarely sleep well, especially women. Yet the number of persons so troubled is very considerable. We now know that, if the blood supply of the brain be kcpt up, sleep is impossible. An old theologian, when weary and sleepy with much writing. found that he could kccp his brain active by immersing his feet in cold water; the cold drove the. blood from the foot to the head. Now, what this gentleman accomplished by de- sign is secured for many persons much against their will. Cold feet are the bane of many wo- men. .Tighl boots keep up a bloodless condition of the feet in the day. and in many women there is no subsequent dilation of the blood vessels when the boots are. taken off. These women come in from a walk, and put their fcct_to the fire to. warmâ€"the most effective plan of cultivating chilblains. At. night they put their feet. to the fire. and have a hot bottle in bed. But it is all of no use; theirleet Sllll remain cold. flow to get their feet “arm is the great question with them in cold weather. The effective. plan is not very nitroc- tive at first sight to many minds. _lt consists of driving the blood vessels in- to firm contraction. after which sec- ondary dilatation follows. See the hands 9! the lyjif who throws snow balls. The first contact with the snow makes iue hands terribly cold; for the Small or!- eries are driven thereby into film cuu- massive head. traction. and the nerve endings of the finger tips feel the low temperature veryjevnly. llnt .s the snow taller persevere-s. his hands commence to sub- ‘ glow. the blood vesels have become secondarily .dilated. and the rush of warm arterial blood is felt agreeably by the .peripheral nerve endings. This is the plan to adopt \vith cold feet. They should be dipped in cold wa- ter for a brief period; and then, im- mediately before getting into bed, the should be rubbed till they glow, wit a pair of hair flesh gloves or a rough Turkish tOWel. After this a hot wa- ter-bottle will be successful enou h in maintainin the temperature 0 the feet, thong , without this preliminary. it is impotent to do so. _Disagreeable as the plan at first sight may appear, it is efficient. and those who have. once fairly tried it con- tinue it, and find that they have put an end.to their bad nights and cold feet, Pills, potions. lozenges. " night caps." all narcotics, fail to enable the sufferer to woo sleep successfully; get rid of the cold feet, and then sleep will come of itself. HOUSEM‘AID AND DUSTPAN. To those who know the true inward- nes sof things the sight of a housemai brushing a dusty carpet is suggestiVi of many evils. The death of Pasteur has reminded the world of what is con- stantly present in the thoughts of med- ical menâ€"namely, that while micro-or- ganisms are the great producers of dis- ease, dust is the great carrier of micro- organisms. Now that we know these things, it is distressing to find how lit- tle our knowledge is put to practical use. and to see old customs still unâ€" changed, old habits which we knew to be destructive carried on, and to find the housemaid on her knees, with her brush and dustpan, stirring up dust to the detriment of ever one, and breath- ing germ-laden partic es to her own de- struction. It needs but a. small amount of common sense to see that if carpets must continue, a. thing greatly to .be deprecated, they should be rubbed With a damp cloth ‘rather than brushed, and that if, in deference to prejudice, they must be brushed, this should be done by a cove-red sweeper with plenty of dams tea leaves. Of all ways of remov- ing irt from a carpet the worst is by the use of the ordinary short brush, which involves the housemaid kneeling down in the midst of the dust which she so needlessly creates. and drawing it into her lungs with every breath. For ordinary household use something like linoleum, something which can be washed with a. wet cloth every morn- ing would seem to be the best covering for floors; but if carpets must be, and it is impossible to teach the present generation the evils of seeking present; comfort at the expense of future risks, at least let us remember that carpets may be washed even where they lie; that till the day of washing comes, a closed sweeper is far better than a brush, and that the worst form of brush is one with a. short handle. ______.__.â€"â€"â€" ..... BRIDAL CUSTOM. A singular marriage custom prevails among the French Canadians in Queâ€" bec. After the morning marriage ser- vice in the church the bridal party, in calache or cabriolet, make a. tour of calls upon relatives and friends during the day, and then return again to the church for vespers. Before the evening dance at. the' bride’s new home comes the supper. \Vhen the company rise from the table the. bride keeps her seat, and some one asks with great dignity: “Why does madame wait? Is she so soon in bad grace f" She replies: “Some one has stolen my slipper; I cannot walk." Then they carry her, chair and all, into the middle of the room, while a. loud knocking announces a grotesque ragged vender of boots and shoes. He kneels before the slipperless bride and tries on a. long succession of old boots and shoes of every variety and Size unâ€" til at last he finds her missing shoe. The groom redeems it. for a good price, which is spent in treating the company. If the. groom is not watchful they steal her hat and cloak. which he redeeims in the same way; and they have been known to steal the bride, for which there must be liberal pay. The church forbids round dances. The event of the evening is a jig, in which. the guest volunteers to outdance the bride. 1f successful, the visitor de- mands a prize from the groom. _______°____... DIMINUTIVE AZTEES. The feminine direct descendants of the famous Aztecs are tiny creatures, ex- quisitely formed and refined in feature. They carry the heads with the upbcar- ing grace of the full-blooded Indian; their skins are not. red. but a clear, smooth copper color that shines like gold in the sun ; their hair is course and black as ebony. and they are decorated with bright feathers and gay ornaments. These women make the most wonderful pottery that comes to us from Mexico, for they have kept the old; Aztec forms and decorations in their art. and they aLso weave wonderful baskets and. do ex~ quisite embroidery SARCASTIC. \Vhat does it. remind 1011 of when these homely Muglet girls wash their faces? 1 don't know.

A Lawyer or Pemwater, Mich" Shoots the [freslclent of the Vlllagc. Goes Home, kills Ills “'lrc. Three Children and Himselfâ€"Death of the Village Presl- dcnt. . S. B. Minshall, an attorney and an insurance agent of Pentwater, Mich, made an attempt on Thursday night to assassinate William B. 0. Sands, President of the Sands 8: Maxwell Lum~ ber Company, Village President and the leading man of the place. Sands died at his home next evening. After leaving Sands for dead, Minshall went to his home and shot his wife and three children dead, and then committed sui- cide by shooting himself through the head. Minsliall came from Chicago three years ago and was in the employ of Sands & Maxwell until a year ago,when he began the practice of law and also began writing insurance. He had a big line of insurance on Sands 48: Max- well's property, which the firm can- celled a few days ago. This and other financial troubles is supposed to have made Minshall insane. He left letters which showed that he intended to be revenged‘ on Sands. ‘ Mr. Sands had been working in the office of the company and started home about 9.30 o'clock. \Vhen within a few rods of home Sands met Minshall. The latter had a rifle and demanded that Sands accompany him. Sands attempt- ed fi) disarm him, and Minshall fired, the bullet. striking Sands in the upper part of his right arm and shattering. it. badly. Sands then ran toward his home, but was unable to get the door open. Minshall, who had followed his Victim, , FIRED FOUR MORE SHOTS, three of which took effect. By this time Sands had managed to unlock the door, and; as he entered, he fell in- senSible, and Minshall fled to his home. The noise caused by Sand’s fall aroused his family, and help was sum- moned. A general alarm was raised by the use of the town’s fire whistle. A cartridge was found near where the shooting occurred, and it was identi- fied by S. \V. Fincher, a druggish’, as belonging to a. rifle which Minshall had borrowed from him to shoot crows. This turned suspicion towards Minshall as the attempted assassin of Sands, and the big crowd which had gathered went to his house. The house was found lighted, but as no response could be obtained to the repeated knockings on the door it was forced open. _ Mrs. Minshall's body was found lying against the door in the main room. Her throat had been cut. The body of Ruby, 9. sixteenâ€"year- old daughter, and a. ‘ promising musiâ€" cian, was found in a. corner of the same room. She had been shot through the head. Mr. Minshall’s body was found near his wife's. In a bedroom were found the bodies of Georgia, aged four,‘and a two-year-old baby boy. One shot from the rifle had ended both of their lives. One of the. letters which Minshall left was written to a friend in Chi- cago, asking him to care for his fam- ily in case they should survive him. In the letter he complained bitterly of theyompany’s treatment of him in busmess matters. He wrote that he would demand satisfaction from Sands. and if.,he d1d not receive it he would take him along with him “ to mix with the. elements.’ DIPHTHERIA SERUM. l’rol‘. Langerhans Says That It ('uuscd i‘lic llcntli of Ills Llitlc Son. The celebrated Prof. Langerhans, medical director of the Moabit Hospit- al, startled Berlin by causing the fol- lowing announcement to be published in the papers on \Vcdnesday: " Our darling Ernest, aged twenty- one months, died suddenly in perfect health in consequence of an injection of Dr. Behring's diphtheria serum.” He followed up his statement by a repetition of the publication, together with an announcement giving the date and place of the funeral, all of which was printed in large type. The matter created much excitement, which has reached beyond medical circles, and a lively discussion is now going on in the press. The body of the child was takâ€" en possession of by the authorities, who at once Seized it after the father's an- uounccmcnt. Immediately after the death of his son Prof. Langerhans scaled the phial containing ihc‘seruin used in giving the alleged iatal injection: The Professor says that his son was irrsli'ong health. and was inoculated. with the serum merely as a precaution, a housemaid in thc_fiunily havmg.diplitlicria, and be having lost. two children in 1595 from [be same. disease. In a letter_ to the Vossiche Zcitung. expressing his Views on the-case, Dr. Asch gives instances of Similar cases, one of ilicni .tlie daughter of a high Prussian medical oflicigil, ’who was. inâ€" oculated with Dr. llehnng's serum. and was in consequence ill for three months. The adherents of Dr. Behring ask for a SUFIM'HSlOll of professional judgment and a calming of the public. mind un- til the cause of [beneath of the child is proved. l)r. Behring is spending the holidays on the island of Capri. near haples. Prof. Brueger, the leading (.lcr- mun bacteriologtsi, expresses the opin- ion that it_is a serious mistake to draw the deduction from an unexplained case that the serum lS dangerous, and as- serts that. a normal injection of the will not cause death. i HIS POSSESSIOSS.

Of all uncomfortable times during the entire year. house-cleaning time is the worst. It is true there are. many dif- ferent methods of doing it, but if the housekeeper is thorough and methodical much of the discomfort usually attend- ant upon such times could be avoided. Professional housecleancrs take one room at. a time and confine the dis; turbances to that one room.'””To-have the entire house torn up at once, to make chaos of the whole establishment. so the inmates “have not where to lay their heads,” is not only unnecessary. but. makes everyone miserable and the work is only half done in the end. In commencing operations take down all lace and muslin curtains; wash. dry and put them carefully away until after all cleaning is done. Then all that re- mains to do is to starch, dry and bang they will be ruined by dust and dirt carried from other parts of the house. Commence cleaning at the top of the house. and work systematically down- ward, taking one room at a time and putting that in epic-span shape from top to bottom. Portiers should be taken down and cleaned before they are put away. All bric-a-brac, lamps, rugs,etc., should be cleaned and removed to an unused room. Spread an old carpet or a canvas over the carpet while the furn- iture is being cleaned. Upholstered furniture should be beaten free of dust out of doors. The carpet should then be taken out for a beating and swept be- fore. being tacked down again. If there are greasy spots on Brussels carpets or. if they are otherwise dirty, they may be cleaned with warm water in which some borax, in the proportion of two tablespoonfuls to a pailful of water. has been dissolved. A flannel cloth should be used. For very greasy or dirty spots a scrubbing brush may be and a little soap, care being taken to rinse the soap off well. The water should be changed often. The. carpet should be rubbed as dry as possible With clean cloths and all windows and doors left open that it may dry quickly. If any carpet looks dull or faded it may be rub- bed over with a cloth wrung out of has been water to which some ammonia wonder- added. This will brighten it fully. _ . If walls are to be papered or calf-imm- ed, too much care cannot be taken (from a sanitary standpoint) to remove all pre- vious aim. or paper. To remove. old paper hot water should be applied With a large brush, and a scraper will then readily remove all of it. Thin paste. reduced to the consistency of cream, is very effective for that purpose. and for heavy papers it is best to allow It. to soak a few minutes before commencing to remove the paper. White-washed walls should be scraped before ‘bcing thoroughly wet with hot water or thin paste. A large sponge can ire usedlo wash with. A strong solution of un- egar has been found effective for clean- ing “bite-washed or calcimincd _walls. For painted walls apply a solution of about two pounds of molames or brown sugar to a bucketful of water. This is also good for varnished paper. Scrapâ€" ing is usually necessary_1n order tore» move every trace of paint. or varnish, no matter what other agent. may be used for the purpose. For dan1p_wa11s, two or three coats of shellac Will be found to exclude the dampness. The windows are, of course, not clean- ed until all papering, painting, etc., is done. It. often happens that when the woodwork is painted splashes of paint get on the glass, and if left for any length of time they become hard and difficult to remove. To obviate this trouble use hot water and soda. 'Take a pint of very hot, water and dissolve in it apiece of washing soda the size of an egg “'et a pieco of soft cloth _oi' flannel with this and rub the paint marksâ€"they will come off quite easily. It is a good thing 10 thoroughly dust the windows every day when the rest of the. room is doneâ€"window sills,ledges, sashes and all. if this is attended to they will not. require washing very often. The. following method of clean- ing windows is followed by profossmnul \i'iiidmv-cleaners: Have a- muslin bag' full of whiting and two wash lcailiers. Dust the glass thickly with whiting then rub it off thoroughly with a dump (not Wet) Chamois or sheep skin and fin- ally polish witli a clean dry one. This method of cleaning windows imparts a polish unknown to glass pushed in ill-.1 ordinary way. Now that walls, floor and windows havc been attended to nothing further remains but to set the room in ordL-r and proceed in a like nuinncr with an- other. The kitchen is last but not least. 'l‘lic plzicc. where. the food for the family is prepared should always be scrupulously clean, but proper attention cannoi al- ways be given to walls. plumbing. woodwork, do. All of this should u- tlioroughly washed and carLolizcd~ walls as well as floor and sink. The kitchen walls should b.- i'lila‘llliln‘Wl every year to insure [Karim-t cleanliness.
