Tn fii.is who remember the
n.ima )ni 1 clasea of ailments to
which human beings were subject,
a few decades ago, it seems that
there has been a vast increase of
diseases ami ailments. An east
rn exchange says that it is a fact
beyond dispute that the man of the
present day is stronger, healthier,
and less liable to attacks of di
oase, than in any preceding age.
There are no more real diseases
than there were a hundred years
ago, but with our increasing knowl
edge, we are able to observe diflei
ences not then noted, and to separ
ate in'o distinct diseases, each
reiuiriiig different treatment,
certain affections which were form
erly grouped together under one
general mine. l'neumonia for
instance, .vas rarely heard of in
former times, but "lung fever" was
none the less fatal, and even more
to be dreaded in the absence of any
. rational method of treatment. Be
fore the general use of the micro
scope and chemical reagents for
testing the urine, diabetes, Bright's
disease, and many others were net
thoroughly differentiated, but were
called by the general nana' of
kidney trouble, and were just as
ommon as these modern times
when "safe" and infallible cures
advertised for sale at every drug
tore. Tiie forms of brain disease
accompanied by pararsis were in
existence long before the term
paresis was introduced into the
medical vocabulary, and the victim
f alcoholic dementia is not favored
with the sight of any moie zoologi
cal curiosities than his predecessor
who merely had the common jim
jams, "lleart failure" is the
latest term of this sort employed
to indicate the cause of death, and
is a modt unfortunate one. It really
has no meaning at all, for the
failure of the heart to do its work
always occurs at the end of life. It
uay be said that death is alway.
aaused by ths failure of either the
heart or lungs to perform their
duties, and that the various form.
of accidents or disease are only
indirect causes, inducing such fai -wre.
Heart failure is not a disease
but the result of disease, and there
is nothing new about it whatever
When applied to orgaric or fun:
Cional di&M-e9 of the heart it may
have some significance, but such :i
general term had best be used on j
in a very general sense. Notwith
standing the wails of the pessiuih-t
mankind are steadily improving in
bodily strength and vitror. Even
the iniint nse consumption of patent
medicines fails to stop the improve
aneut--a fact which goes to proye
the general absence of any medicin
si qualities whatever, in thasp
pre pai it ions. The average length
of life is greater, and the standard
t loiti!v health higner than ever
before, and, if it were not that
medical and tanitary .'kill now

LeaJtl- many weak persons who
in former times woulu have sue
cum bed to the first attack of dis
ase, Hie standard would be even
higher. In the works cf old writ
ers tnere are many passages which
vhow that a nian was c nsidered
o-i a'd past his prime at forty,
wh:Ie :: -w at that age one is in the
Yerv height of hi9 powers. There
may be more diseases now than
formerly hut there is less disea-e,
and a vastly greater knowledge of
how to avoid it, or when attacked,
to bring it to a favorable termina
tion. Excitement is said to have been
created, in the commercial circles
interested in the manufacture and
dnvei. j.ment of coal oil, over the
4..covery of a process whereby all

The thah of Persia seems to be
progressive in his ideas to some
extent; at least the intercourse
with the outside world has enlight
ened him on one point judeing
from his language to Gladstone in
congratulating the aged statesman
upon the fiftieth anniversary of his
wedding. He is reported as say
ing that "it is better to live fifty
years with one woman ihan to live
one year with fifty women."
The formation of a diamond trust
in Europe seems to have had an
enlivening effect on the diamond
business in this country, for im
mediately upon receipt of the news
the burglars resumed operations,
and proceeded to mak a large
diamond robberv in Boston. They
had abandoned that line of goods
for some time until they heard of
the trust business.
The detection and arrest of a
human fiend who cut olF a finger to
obta:n a diamond ring trom the
hand of a dead lady, one of the
victims of the Johnstown flood,
will be hailed with satisfaction by
every well meaning persons, and
his speedy punishment eagerly
look for.

Asy method of preparation that

worthy of adoption, even though
