Those most j usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed raid-1 die life. The vitality of the blood and strength of the system have naturally begun to decline, and the poisonous germs which have accumulated because of a sluggish and inactive condition of the system, or some hereditary taint which has hitherto been held ia check, now force an outlet on the face, arms, legs or other part of the body. The place grows red and angry, festers and eats into the surrounding tissue until it becomes a chronic and stubborn ulcer, fed and kept open by the impurities with which the blood is saturated. Nothing is more trying and disagreeable than a stubborn, non-healing sore.

Hoase In Which They Were Sol Relle of Town of Hanover. A relic of slavery days in New Eng land in the middle of the eighteenth century,- the old Tilden house on Win ter street. West Hanover, the only house In that town where slaves were) kept for market, is now being demol ished, says the Boston ITerald. . The bouse Is one of the best-known landmarks In Plymouth County and has stood for nearly 200 years. It was used as a tavern In Its early days and later for a residence. Of recent years It has been abandoned to the elements and has rapidly fallen Into decay. No one knows the exact date of the building of the house, but historians agree that It was long before the In corporation of the town of Hanover In 1T2T. Jedediah Dwelley, of North Hanover, who has spent much time In gathering facts concerning the early history of the town, says: "While there was more or less buying and selling of slaves (as In the middle of the eighteenth century nearly all. the wealthy families owned one or more) this probably was the only place where the traffic was carried on for revenue. I have seen two bills of slaves sold from this bouse. One was from Job Tilden to a Mr. Bailey, of Scltuate, a negro child named Morrow, 9 years of age, of good bodily health and a kind disposition." One of Mr. Tilden's slaves named Cuffee served as a soldier In the Revo lutionary War, and according to. an old pay roll he was stationed at Hull, March 1, 1777. He was with Col. Bailey and died at Valley Forge. He was known as Cuffee Tilden and was so Inscribed on the printed rolls. The books of the First Congregation al Church of Hanover record the mar riage by the Rev. Benjamin Bass on Feb. 8, 1751, of Jack and Billah, ser vants owned by Job Tilden, and also the death of a negro boy owned by Job Tilden, Feb. 12, 1700. There are many other brief records of slaves kept In different families in Hanover. Blood Polaonlngr. By the term blood-poisoning Is meant the presence In the blood of the germs of putrefaction or suppuration, or of the poisonous products of these germs. It Is necessary to define the expression at the beginning, for strictly speaking every form of poisoning, Including alco holic Intoxication, Is blood-poisoning. There are three distinct forms of blood-poisoning. In one the germs of putrefaction are circulating In the blood and manufacturing their poison, upon which the symptoms of the disease de pend? In the Becond the blood-contained germs are those which cause pus-formation, and they also manufacture a poi son which produces the disease ; In the third form the bacteria, either of pu trefaction or of suppuration, are not in the blood but on the surface of the body, and the symptoms are due to the absorption of the poison elaborated by them. The toxin, as this bacteria-produced poison Is called, Is in this last Instance Imported, while In the first two cases mentioned It la, as It were, of domestic manufacture therefore obtained more easily and In greater quantity. These three forms, are called In med ical language, septemla, pyemia and sa- premla, respectively, meaning septic germs In the blood, pus In the blood, and the products of putrefaction In the blood. The pyemic form is characterized by Irregular chills, fever and sweating, and the formation of abscesses In vari ous parts of the body. It Is very com monly fatal. Septemla resembles pye mia in Its symptoms, except that the fever Is more continuous, not being In terrupted by chills as It Is In pyemia, and there Is no formation of abscesses. The severer forms of septemla are al most always fatal, but the disease oc curs often In milder type, In which the chief symptoms are high fever, head ache, and depression of the vital forces. Bapremia resembles septemla In Its symptoms, as it naturally should, since both these forms of blood-poisoning are caused by the same poison, In one case formed outside of the body and absorb ed by the tissues, in the other produced by the bacteria In the blood and tissues. Bapremia may terminate fatally, but it yields more readily to treatment This consists In management of the wound, opening It up to the air, cutting away the festering parts, cleansing the sur face thoroughly, and treating It with antiseptics. When Life Ie Wanted. Life Is wasted every time one grren away to gloomy, selfish, angry or re vengeful thoughts ; when resentment or a grudge against man or fate Is al lowed to find root In the heart; when the temper Is let fly loose over a trifle; when one goes to pieces nervously when pbltged to repeat a remark and the voice is allowed to rise In anger; when one forgets that a loose temper Is a sign of vulgarity and lack of culture. Philadelphia Press. Here la a stereoytped remark you bear frequently from croakers: "Did you ever see so much sickness?" GOOD ijSbortg torlesl i t i At a recent sale of old books and curios the auctioneer. said, "This book. gentlemen,1 Is . especially valuable, as It contains a marginal note In the handwriting of John Dryden. Five pounds offered. Going going gone. It is yours, sir." The autograph mar ginal note by the renowned scholar was as follows: "This book Is not worth the paper it Is printed on," Recently a very suspicious country man went to New York to see the sights. Coming to the , Metropolitan Museum, he was amazed to And that the admission to this splendid build ing cost nothing. He mounted the steps and entered. "Your umbrella, sir," said a uniformed official, extending his band. The countryman jerked back his umbrella, laughed scornfully, and turned on his heel. "I knowed there was some cheat about It when ye got In free," he said. A teacher In one of the public schools of Baltimore was one day In structing her pupils In the mysteries of etymology, when she had evasion to question a boy pupil with reference to the word "recuperate.' "As an ex ample," said the teacher, "we will take the case of your -father. He Is, of course, a hard-working man." "Yes'm," assented Charley. "And when night comes, be returns home tired and worn out, doesn't her "Yes'm," In further assent from Charley. "Then," contin ued the teacher, "It being night, his work is over, and be being tired and worn out, what does he do?" 'That's what ma wants to know," said Char ley. Patrick, recently arrived and unused to the ways of this country, was ac costed one day by a member of the sporting fraternity, who offered to Im part to him, for a modest considera tion, a marvelous way to make money without tolling for It All one needed, he said, was a small amount to bet on a certain horse that couldn't pos Blbly lose, "And yes say Ol can get that money without working for It?" asked the bewildered Irishman, when the other was through explaining. "Sure thing. All the work you got to do Is to count the mazuma." "I'll thry It" said Pat So they hied them to a race-course, where the sporty-looking gentleman placed Pat's money at odds of five to one. And the horse wonl Pat's joy was unbounded when he was handed a large roll of yellow-backed bills. Calling his new-found friend to one side, he asked in a voice that trem bled with excitement : . "Oi say, how long has this been goln' on?" PLAQUE AMONG QUAIL. - The Government Alarmed Over the Spread of the Dlseaee. There is an outbreak of disease among the quail of the country that threatens serious results. The news Is contained In a circular Issued by the department of agriculture calling the attention of sportsmen and game dealers to the out break and asking for more Information on which to base treatment and protec tive measures, says the Kansas City Times. While not enough Is known about the disease to make diagnosis absolutely certain. It Is suspiciously like the grouse disease that for 100 years has been playing havoc with the game birds In England. The centers of Infection in this country are only Just being found, and If more Information is gained It Is possible that quarantine measures may be resorted to. , - The centers of Infection so far known are In Kansas, Indian territory, Ala bama, Virginia and Massachusetts. The grouse disease has been studied scien tifically and has been found to be as definitely a malady as typhoid or diph theria. The disease, although evident ly Infectious, seems to be closely allied to pneumonia. Not enough has been learned yet about the quail disease to estaDiisn its Identity unquestionably with the grouse disease, but Its symptoms and the spread of the infection is much tne same, and there Is a possibility that It has been imported with the shipment of grouse from England. It Is known at least that the quail disease is ratal not only to quail but to the Bharp-talled grouse of this country, and there are grave fears that its wider spread may affect many of the most Important game birds of the country.. The first Intimation that tne aepan- ment of agriculture had of the disease was when In April, 1906, the bureau of animal Industry received three dead birds from a Kansas City dealer. He said that the birds were , the last of a large lot that had been steadily dying off. The whole nock would appear well at night and In the morning sev eral of them would be dead. . Some time later the same dealer re ceived a Bhlpmcnt of two dozen blue ouall from Wichita, Kas. Nearly all were dead on arrival, evidently from the same disease. Then a shipment was received from Birmingham, Ala. All of these died of the same malady, Then a report was received from Wor cester. Mass., saying that an infectious disease was killing off the ruff grouse that were raised for stock purposes there. Ton can't always Judge a man's pay by the work he does.
