Infantile paralysis has been traced to the citable fly in a good many cases !, , lii . . in ' The country editor is a reliable - encyclopedia. A subscriber sent one this query recently:' "What . ails' my hens? Early morning i And one or more of them keeled over to rise no more." His reply was: "The fowls are dead. It is . an old complaint, and nothing can be done except to bury them." I There are . plenty of fellows who could teach a better school than those who teach, preach a better sermon than those who preach, who couldr run a better business and publish a better pa per. Yes, the woods are full of them, - but they neither teach, preach, run a, business or publish a better paper . ; They are like the lillies of the field, they toil not, neither do they spin. v This paper does not feel and . tries always to avoid the appear ance of petty, spite. A candidate in the recent primary was taking offense because his name was in advertedly omitted ( in the Ad vance's list of those in the race. It would be hard 7 to persuade this man, we suspect, that the omission was anything but inten tional though we did not remem ber that he' had ever received this paper nor did we know of what orders he was or was not a mem ber. . We are wondering if he blames us for the fact that he was defeated."'-' , ' , - . - There are. three kinds of intes tinal parasite with which every body is more or less acquainted the round-worm, , the tapeworm, and the pinworm. . The hook worm is still another, kind, more common in the Southern States than either of the others, but only lately so well known. The adult life of the hookworm is passed in the small intestine, where the worms attach them selves to the mucus membrane. They) suck the blood and inject a poison which seta seta up a train of symptons that we know as hookworm disease. ' In the stools of a child suffer ing from hookworms are myriads of eggs. These do not usually hatch until passed out of the in testine, for they require oxygen, as well as warmth aud. moisture. There have been found pewly hatched larvae in freshly voided stools; but those probably were in cases where the putients were addicted to swallowing air. Now when such a', sufferer polutes the soil, the eggs hatch, each one turning out n little worm, so small that It can not be seen with the naked ere. This little worm lives in the soil and grows two or three days and casts its skin, and then grows a day, or two . longer and gets ready to cast its skin again; that is to say, it wriggles loose from its skin at the head as though it were going to bacE out, and nt the tail as though it were going to crawl out from the front. Bee under the microscope at this time, it looks ns though it were a capsule somewhat like an earthworm' wrtuld look if it were in a long, slender, flexible, transparent capsule, rather close fitting except at head and tail, but apparently too long. This is called the encysted stage, or the infecting stage. The worm, while now a little larger than when hatched, is still too small to be seen without the aid of a microscope. It ceases to eat and ceases to grow, and just lives in the moist ground and and waits for some barefoot child. It has been kept alive in this stage for eleven months, flow'- much oncer, it could live is not known. Now when the barefoot child comes along, this encysted embryo burrows into the skin through a pore, and soon finds its way in to the blood, and finally, reaches the" lungs, where it breaks out in to air spaces and is coughed up and swallowed. ' As the encysted embryo passes through the skin of the host, it eaves its shell behind, which completes the second moult. Then after it reaches the intestine it moults twice more before it reach es the adult full-grown stage. nuc-nv-Tisn Will cure your Rheumatism Neuralgia. , Headaches, Cramps, Colic, Sprains, Bruises, Cuts and Burns, Old Sores, Stings of Insects Etc.

The object whatever it may be, is prevented from reaching any vital parts, such as the drum, by the wax, which catches and holds it. .If the object happens to be a bug it is best to introduce a little warm oil in order to kill the insect. immedSLately. After this it may be removed! with a eyringefur of warm 'water. 'An ' object may not be so moved if it is a pea or a bean or other object which is likely to swell with the introduction of water. In such , case the patient, must be taken at once to a surgeon or doctor, .who has. the' proper instruments with which to extract the object In ho event should the nonpro fessional attempt to probe after " the article with improvised in struments.
