3 , , Cerebral Spinal Menengltts
Wo reproduce the following from tlio
p3n of Dr. Jns. Withycoinbo, V.S. The
Doctor writes ub from Itillboro that he
has retired from activo iirofi'Msionul
dtttio3 and will licronfter devote his en
tire nttcntion to lino Block. Ho hri,
however, promised us an occasional
articlo on live stock and kindred Mibjocts
that may come under lii.i observations.
The following aiticlo was originally pub
lished in the Karmi:k one year ago :
Tho disease is evidently accompanied
with a sympathetic nervous nflection,
apparently analoRous to Corobrnl Spinal
MoncngitK I am strongly of the
opinion that tho primary causo of the
nervous affection is tomo form of
epidemic influenza, very probably a
typhoid form of that disease, and the
meningial nfitction is due to morbid
changes in tho blood, superinduced by ;
ine limuuii.ii iiiui irmiiuijj; hi utoiiiHr
gration of the blood, eapsulos, etc. Tho
tetanic spasms (cramps) of certain mus
cles, aro indications that tho ncrvo
-.contcrs aio considerably involved. It is
hardly posiblo that tho primary cans'1
of tho nervous derangement, la) s in tho
feed, for if the feed wns the only jxHent
agent, tho vdfseaso would not appear as
an epidemic, but only occur in isolated
cases. It is well known by veterinaiiaiis
that unwholcsomo food, water and im
proper sanitary regulations of tho htablo
aro extremely liable to produce- spmul
monciigu is. v ung.is s u iruiuui iigum,
in producing menenigial disenbc, and it
is possible that some seasons ato moro
favorablo than others: towards tha pro
duction nnd drvolopmcnt of rritin
fungus or cryptojams on plants that aro
utilized for fodder, but this fungus or
mildew is usually confined to plants of
tho same spocios. If tho diseased Iiowh
have been fid on p.'iiticular kind of fied,
it would bo well to investigate that sub
stance. Hut it is shown above that the
disease attacks hoises, irrespective of the
kind and uuality of feed that they luivo
consumed, which fallows conclusively
that tho gonnrnlivo agents am efcewhuio
than in tho feed. Tho cough mentioned
uy lur. jiuriu'Li' is h pyiimiuiu in u
catarrhal or bronchial affection that lie
companion influenza, and tho reason
that it dors not appear until tho con-
valoscency of tho patient is probably
duo to anccsthesia.
Although it is nhnost impossible fur
mo, in tho absence of any knowledge of
tho principal symptoms, such as the
stato of tho pulse, tho iipppurnnco of the
membranes of tho eye and nose, temper
ature, and aiucstbcsia (loss of seiibiition
in certain muscles, which almost in
variably accompanies spinal nicneni
gitis,) to arrive with any degree of
ccrtnnity to a correct conclusion us to
tho real nature of tho disease. Tho
fymptoms given nlxivo aro suflicieut to
cnahlo mo 'to form an opinion, regard
ing a rational mode of treatment to
pursue, in order to alleviate the disouso.
i'rovontion, an oiiueo of which is worth
moro than a pound ofcuit. in stables or
neighborhoods where the discuses is
raging. It is veiy necrssaiy to pay
strict attention to stable icgulations,
iced, water, anil allow the horses to o
irciso thomsolns icgulaily, turn them
in tho pasture on lino days, keep plenty
salt within their reach, so that I hoy can
lick it at leisure, not coin pel them to
tint it by mixing it with tlio feed.
Twice 11 week foul them wnim bruu
mash (not too wet) with a small tnblo
anoonful of the following powder in it:
l'ow- Forri sulphate and Fenugreek of
cocb 2oz., (Icutiau (ioz. mix. To hoises
that aro in a stable where the disease
has broken out, give them a warm mash
everv night, with 2 tcuspoonfuls of tho
sibovo mentioned powder in it; in case
of obstinate const) pat ion, add a pint of
thick flaxseed tea or gruel to tho mash.
Horses that have not been accustomed
To getting medicine in their feed, it is
necessary to omit feeding them for a
meal or two, before oHbring them the
niodicutcd feed.
Treatment of the diseased ones So
Boon as they exhibit tho first symptoms
of the disease, take all tho hay and straw
away from them, and feed them nothing
but warm bum mashes. Put them in a
Wttim but well ventilated stable, if they
seem cold blanket them, and rub their
legs occasionally, so as to keep up an
active ciioulution in tho extrometies. If
there is no tendeuoy to spasm or nervous
oxoitomout, apply a mnstaid blister to
tho sides, breast and throat. Take 0
lablcsptxmfuls of ground mustard, make
into u thin pasto with warm water, and
rub in with the hand, repeat tho applica
tion of a very light mustard blister o
tho same place every other day. Cilvo
III) grains of einchoiuidia sulphate a
" little, water, twice daily, or if tho patient
is difficult to dreiloh, put tho powder
liitou, tablespoon nnd put it back oh Ids
touguo dry j also, give & pint of good
flaxseed tea'niortiing ririil evening, if Hioy
refuse to eat it in tho ma-sh drenah them
with it carefully. In eases, where there
are symptoms of nervous derangement,
euch as spasms or contracting of the
muscle. Feed mid give the tea as men
tioned aUive. If there is constipation,
give first sulphate soda 8 or., in pint of
warm water as one drench. Then give
bromide of otaium it drachms in a little
water every four hours ; also tub some
of the following lotions three times daily,
all along the Kick. Tinet. arnica ! oi ,

this will not follw tho Inhuman practice

Th Most Valuable Breeds or Sheep.
In dihcussing the improvements in
sheep and wool.it is well to consider nil
tho point that aro likely to provo advnn
tagcous. Many difl"ront opinions have
been expressed b 'bo press and by ex
ports as to what bn i-ds aro tho most val
uable, ju our opuiiun mi guuu uitu
wools nrr- valuable, and all needed in the
United Str.tes. Uut tho qucst'on natur
ally arises, which are tho best and most
profitable to tho giowor and rcadiet of
of sale. As many wool growers have
never had the opportunity of seeing wool
worked it may not be out of place to
explain this inaltcr somewhat. In man
ufacturing thoro aro two distinct
branches, the one is carding, and the
other combing. In selecting wools for
carding tho soundness of tho staplo is
not of importance, as any kind will card.
In combing, tho wool is prepared with
great enre, and is put through machin
ery, drawing it and stiaightening tho
fiber. Fiom thcto machines it goes to
anothor termed the comb, and is passod
through combs which draw tho fiber
straight. If theio bo any short or tender
fibers in tho wool, they stick in tho
combs. In this pioirss nothing but tho
very soundest staplo is taken out; it runs
into tho cans piepared to hold it in the
shin c of a ronp. This is called a silvo"
Fioin this size it

and tender wool left in tho comb is call
ed noils, and is uml for earning pur
poses. To ni'iko this' worded requites
tlio very healthiest sound stapled wool.
This hi .inch of manufacturing is in
creasing rapidly in tin) United states,
and will undoubtedly, grow fast as time
goes on. For this reaton combing wools
aro becoming seairo and aio in great de
mand, as will bo seen by tho conditions
of
the E.t'-tern market. While Ohio
wooi3 .,rc quoted at fioni -10 to l.1! conts,
'colni,jK Wik)I, graded out of tho same,
is ouoted at fiom '15 to f0 cents. Theso
classes of wool aro always in great do
mand at tlio very top prices. This is
only tho iniduiu ui IvmunW, uudyet
such qualities aro scarce, showing that
manufactures will have to draw heavily
on foreign markets to supply their wants
Combing wool is of sound staplo from
tho root to tho top, ami of reasonable
length. All qualities of wool aro used
for this purpose. The Into improved
combs can comb a staplo two inches
long. Thus it will bo seen that if wool
is of sufficient sttcngthund long enough
it is combing wool. Many medium
grades of California wools aro good
combing, and if sheared onco a year
only, much noithein wool would rank
among tho best combing wools grown in
tlio country.
Medium grades of wool meet with tho
steadiest demand, nnd if our sheep
bleeders would look into this matter,
i hoy would find it to their interest to
ascertain what bleeds of sheep aro the
he-t to produce such qualities. Tho best
wo have yet seen is a cioss fiom the
Spanish from tho Shiopshiie. This pro
duces n very nice quality of wool, with
a very sound, oven, 1 ng, fine, lustrous
liber. From samples of theso wools, re
cently received, wo sent some to lb"
largest nmiiiifiiGliircrs in Massachusetts,
and Ihey pronounce'l it among tho best
in tho country. One very important
matter to consider is what class of sleep
is best adapted for our dry climate. As
past experiment has shown that the
Spanish and French .Merinos do well
hore, we think that ther In codssuch

iminy other medium wool sheep would
also by profitable. (.u ait and Country

The Woolen Industry.
There aro now in operation in this
State ten woolen mills, us will bo seen by
tho diiectory in this paper, with a ca
pacity of 70 sets of cards, and about 280
broad looms. The. cIiim of goods manu
factured by uino of theso is blankets,
lluniicls and eassimeios. The othor es
tablishment manufactures a great variety
of goods in addition to thoso abovo men
tioned, ruuIi as many varieties of fine
shawls, Indies' cloths, lino beavers, etc.
The 70 sets of cards now running, al
lowing each set ruus through an average
of 100 pounds of clean wool per day
was -12,000 pounds per week. If they
run 52 weeks per year tho total would bo
2,181.000pounds annually. Tho average
fthriukago of California wool, taking
spring nnd fall clip, is 05 per cent. To
make the alnivo amount of scoured wool
would requi to. 0,201,100 pounds of un
scoured wool. About 10,000,000 pounds
of wool are grown annually in Califor
nia, besides about 0,500,000 pounds of
pulled; tho latter sluinkiug about 33
percent. From this it appears that
about one-eighth of, this product is man-
fuclurod at home, and that -10,000,000
pounds, has to seek another market, and
for thi wo tire dependent oq the Kast to
give us wlut they think lit, for-it.
Our wool growers aro spoiulmg large
sums' to improve broods of sheep and
vyoolj and attempting in every way pos
sible to make wool growing a success,
hut so lonir an to little u manufactured
at home, wool growing in California will
ooiitinuo to ha largely a speculative busi
ness), u woolen niumiiaciuring on tuts
coast had to contend
tages, as compart d with tho Eastern
States, wo would not encourago its ex
tension. But such is not tho case. Thcro
is no part of tho country where Woolen
goods can bo made as cheap as in this
State. As wo have before stated, theio
is a difference of 22 rents icr pound
alone in favor of tho manufacturer here,
who buys his wool in San Francisco, or
any other part of tho State, as compared
with his Eastern competitor, who pur
chases Ohio or similar wools in the Bos
ton market. Our wools aro equally well
adapted for uny classes of goods for
which they rail bo used
There is a largo and fast growing
home demand for woolens, besides that
from other portions of tho coast in all
directions. Eor manufacturing, tho cli
mate horo is all that can ho' desired.
Thcro is not a day in tho year that wool
oil mills cannot bo run without the
slightest cxpenso of fuel for heating,
which niii't bo incurred for that pur
pose in tho Eastern States. There is as
good water for scouring and dyeing pur
poses, ns in any pait of the world, nnd
plenty of it. There is no scarcity of
skilled labor, and, if neccssar more can
easily bo obtained, As to 1 ,'.ition, al
most nny place in tho State where water,
fuel and wool are plenty, is a good ono
for the purpose Our wool growers
should consider this, and a3 there is now
an association in this Stato organized in
tucir interest, the prospects aro tnat
woolen manufacturing will attract
groafor attention tbon heretofore. Wo
shall do all that lies in our power to
forward this important work. California
Exchange.
A grower of fine wool, says tho Pitts
burg Stockman, was showing us a lino
of samples tho other day, of vnrious
Iongtbs,somo of which wcio icnlly won
derful for Meiino products. Warming
up with his thome, lio confidently said :
"I expect to grow Merino wool tvn inches
long before I die." While wo have no
expedition of over seeing Merino wool
of that longtb, or anything near it, it
must be admitted that this kind of 'on
thusiasm is doing much for tho advance
ment of" the lino wool intorcsts of tho
country. Wool is now grown of a
length that would have astonihod our
grandfathers, and it is not too much to
expect that, a generation or two hence,
breeding will achievo things now quite
beyond leacli.
The Egyptian Idea of Immortality.
In Egypt, tho very earliest time, the
tomb was of tho greatest significance for
sculpture. Of temple ruins on tho Nile
from that hoariest past between tho First
and Elovcnth Dynasties, thoro is scarcely
a trace. How vivid tho witness borne to
tho sepulchral art on tho plains of Mom
phis, the capital of oldest Egypt 1 Along
the margin of tho desort str- tches the
vast Necropolis, with a hidden population
of statues, sentineled by thoso stupendous
roynl tombs, tho Pyramids. Where else
hnvq such preparations been mado for
tho final rest of tho dead as in this groat
campo santo of tho ancient empire?
Though mingled with much that was
naive and mntorial, how vivid wore tho
conceptions of that ancient peoplo con
cerning tho future wot Id I They hi lioved
this lifo but an episode in an eternal ox
istonco. Death to them was tho real life,
only evil spiiits being spoken of ns dead.
The collin was culled tho ''chest of the
living." But to tho ancient Egvpti.m
tho immortal part, even after death, was
in some mysterious way dependent for
its contentod existonco upon tho preserv
ation of tho bo ly ; hence tho importance
of embalming, tho euro taken to keep the
body as life-like aspossiblo and secure
fiom harm during tho long period of the
soul's probation. Tho ''otornal dwell
ings," hewn in the solid rock, high above
tho floods, were in strong contrast to the
abodes of tho living, built within reach
of tho swelling Nile, and of which senrco
lv a vestigo remains.
The massive chamber or this tomb
where lies tho mummy is picturcless, and
its entrance is closed by solid masonry.
From it n shaft leads up, which was nt
many places thirty meters deep, and was
filled with, a dense; muss of oarth and
stone, making more inviolate tho tnuin
my's'rest. Ovor the concealed ontranco
of this shaft there rises that other osson
tiul part of tho tomb, tho sacred chapel

In w dark recess, (sord.ib), nsido from
this chapel, ore found many statues wal

ln'oio in number, nnd represent the do
ceased with great diversity. To what
puniosonro they beret Singular beliefs,
lrovul6nt among tho Egyptians and rend
from the hieroglyphics by Maspero, fur
nish us tho key to this problem.
An immortal second-self, ka, somewhat
resembling tho "eidolon" of tho Greeks
and ttye sliado of tho Humans, was be
lieved to spring into being with- every
mortal, grow with his, growth, and ac
company him after death. So closn was
the relationship of this strange, double
ka to man's proper bong, that it was of
the greatest importance to provide it
with a mateiiul nnil imperishable body
which it should occupy after death, shar
ing with the mummy the security of tho
"eternal dwelling." It was believed that
tho shado ka could come out of this etatuo
and Hrambulate among men in true
ghostly fashion, returning to it at will.

HYPOCHOKDFIA
Tho Mysterious Element in the Mind that
Aronsei Vague Apprehensions. What
ActuaUy Causes It.
Tho nnrrativo below by a prominent
scientist touches n subject Xtl universal
importance. Few peoplo are free from
tho distressing evils which hypochondria
brings. They como at nil times nnd are
fed by the very flame which they them
selves start. They are a dread of .coming
derangement caused by present disorder
and bring about more suicides than nny
other ono thing. Their first approach
should be carefully guarded.
Editors Herald :
It is seldom I appear in piint and I
should not do so now did I not believe
myself in possession of truths, tho revela
tion of which will provo of inestimable
value to many who may see these lines.
Mine has been a trying experience. For
many years I was conscious of a want
of nerve tono. My mind seemed slug
gish and I felt n certain fulling ofl in
my natural condition of intellectual
acuteness, activity and vigor. I pre
sume this is the same way in which an
innumerable number of other people
feel, who like myself aro physically be
low par, but like thousands of others I
paid no attention to those nnnoyingl
tioubles, attributing them to overwork,
and resorting to a glass of beer or n milk
punch, which would' for tho timo in
vigorate nnd relievo my weariness.
After nwhilo tho stimulants com
menced to disagree with my stomach,
my weariness increacd, and I was com
pelled to resort to other mcons to find re
lief If n physician is suffering ho in
variably calls another physician to pre
scribe for him, as ho cannot sco himself
as he sees others; so I called a physician
and he advised me to try a little chemi
cal food, or a bottle of hypophosphates.
I took two or three bottles of tlio chemi
cal food with no apparent benefit. My
lassitude and indisposition seemed to in
crease, my food distressed me. I suffer
ed from neuralgic pains in different
parts of my body, my muscles became
soro, my bowols were constipated, and
my prospects for recovery were not very
flattering. I stated my caso to anothor
physician, and ho advised mo to tako
five to ten drops of Magende's solution
of morphine, two or three times n day,
for tho weakness and distress in my
stomach, and a bluo pill every othor
night to relievo the constipation. The
morphine produced such a deathly nau
son that I could not take it, and the bluo
pill failed to relieve my constipation.
In this condition I passed nearly a
year, wholly unfit for business, while the
effort to think was irksomo nnd painful.
My blood became impoverished, nnd I
suit'erod from incapacity with an appall
ing sense of misery and general appre
hension of coming evil. I passed sleep
less nights and was troubled with irregu
lar action of tho heart, a constantly fever
ish condition and tho most excruciating
tortures in mv stomacn, livinjr lor itavs
on rice water and gruel, and, indeed, the
digestive functions seemed to uo entirely
dostroyed.
It was natural that while in. this con
dition I r-hould beeonio hypochondrical
and feai fill sugge.-tions of self destruc
tion occasionally presented themselves.
I experienced an insatiable dosiro for
Icon, but on roiiriiiK would lio nwako
for along time tormented with trouhlod
Mictions, and when at last I did fall
into an uneasy slumber of short dura
tion, it was disturbed by horrid dreams.
In this condition I determined to tako a
trip to Europe, but in spite of nil tho &Xr
tentions of physicians nnd change of
sce"e nnd climato, I did not improve
and so returned home with no earthly
liopo of ever again being ublo to leave
the house
Among tho numerous friends that
called on mo was ono who had been af
ilictcd somewhat similarly to myself, but
who had been restored to perfect health.
Uon his earnest recommendation I be
gan the same troafmenthe had employed
but with little hope of being benefited.
At first I experienced little, if any, relief,
oxcept that it did not distress' my
stomaeh as other remedios or even fpod
had done, I continued its use, however,
and ufter tho third Ivottlo could seo a
marked change for tho bettor, arid now
after tho fifteenth bottle I am happy to
stato that I am again able to attend to
my professional duties. I sleep well,
nothing distresses mo tbat I eat, I go
from day to day without a feeling' of
weariness or pain, indeed I nm n well
man, and wholly through the influence
of II. II. AVornor & Co.'s Tippecanoe. I
considor this romedy ' as taking tho
highest possible rank in the treatment
of all diseases marked by debility, loss
of appetite, and all other symptoms of
stomach and digestive disorders. It is
overwhelmingly ujerior to tho tonics,
bittors, and dyspepsia cures of tho day,
and is certain to bo so acknowledged by
tho public universally. Thousands of
peoplo to-day nro going to prematura
graves with theso serious diseases, ihnt
I havo aliovo described, nnd to all such
I would say: "Do not let your good
judgment be governed by your preju
dices, but give tho nhovo namtd remedy
a fair and patient trial, mil I believe
you will not only bo rewarded by n per
fect restoration to health, but you will
also lie convinced that the medical pro
festion does not possess all tho kuowl
edgo there is embraced in medical
science."
