Crawfordsville Daily Journal, Crawfordsville, Montgomery County, 10 April 1890 — Page 4

There's a corset that isn't a corset, a waist with straps for the shoulders and rows of buttons to button on skirts and stocking supporters and so forth—the Ball YVaist —and that's about the whole of it. No you can put it in the washtub—no metal in it or on it.

It is worth your seeing, if for nothing but how to sew on buttons-to button easy and never come off, and how to make buttonholes wear forever.

Women differ in their ways of thinking and dressing as well as in other ways. This waist is for women whose minds are made up that they won't wear corsets.

There's much to be said on both sides but did you ever hear of a woman who hadn't made up her mind in some way? and is there any possible use in trying to get her to change it She will and she will or she won't and she won't.

You can get the Ball Waist and wear it a week or two or three and if you don't want it. take it back to the store and get your money.

No Gas at Greencaatle.

The gas well at Greencastle has reached the depth of 2,400 feet but no gas. Several hundred tax-payers petitioned the oity council to appropriate $1,250 to help out tlio work, but it was voted down. It is therefore probable that the well will be abandoned.

Modjeska's as Lauy Macbeth. "M'rne. Modjeska's Lady Macbeth" says an eminent oritic, "is a creation well worthy to rank with the "Macbeth" of Mr. Booth. It is fully equal to thot of Histori, having about ita piteous suggestion of a noble woman unsexed by her wolfish ambition. In the murder and sleep-walking scenes her outing is particularly great." The presentation of this deeply complex and metaphysical creation of Shakespeare's brain, by two such artists as Booth-find Modjeska, with th&nssiBtanee of a superb company, a revelation in dramatic art and no one should fail to sea the performance to be given at English's Opera house, Indianapclis, April 29. The play •will bo produced with strict fidelity to detail and just ai= it was presented in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and Boston.

Gen. Lew Wallace Applies for a Pension. All soldiorb of the Mexican War who have reached the ago of 02 years are en titled to a service pension of SB a month. Gen. Low Wallace is to-day 0:j years old and to-day he applied for this pension through Oapt. O. M, Travis. He does not need or want the money himself but his simple purposo in drawing it is to give it to some worthy charity. After revolving the matter in his mind for some months past he finally decided to favor the Orphans' Home. Not only will the Home receive S8 a month from the time the lasnai&j-rti alloVgd. btrt-ii will also got the buck pay for the year just piBeed, amounting to $'M. Gen. Wallace could have selected no more worthy place to put the monov, nor indeed a place where it is more needed. No institution in the county is doing more for good citizenship thau tiiis. It works on the principle that prevention is hotter than cure. The Association too has often been crampod for funds and many a necessity or convenience heretofore denied cun now be obtained.

WHAT CAUSES DISEASES.

MANY INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THEIR MINUTE GERMS.

What liacterla Are anil How ami When Thej ExUt—Au Idra of Their Siae—Filth IA Their Nourishment Double Their

Number* Kvery Hour.

With the name bacteria almost every one is familiar, but little, however, Is actually known of them by the average non-professioual hence a brief description of them is likely to be of interest. Bacteria are minute organisms in fact, they are the smallest of living forms. As one writer has said, they form the boundary line of life beyond them life does not exist, so far, at least, as our present microscopic expedients reach, and these are not small. The strongest of our magnifying lenses, the immersion system of Hartman, give a magnifying power of from three thousand to four thousand diamnters, and could we view a man under such a lens, 1m would appear as large as Mount Blanc or even Chimborazo. But even under this colossal amplification tlxe smallest bacteria do not appear larger than the points and commas of a good print. These smallest bacteria may be compared with a man about as a grain of sand to Mount Blanc.

Bacteria assume many forms—there are about two hundred varieties now known. Some under the microscope appear as balls or eggs, others as rods of various, length or as mere fibers, while y^l others are of a spiral form, like corkscrews. The bodies consist of an almost colorless substance, in which numerous shining granules are imbedded. Under conditions unfavorable to them, bacteria are motionless, and certain kinds never appear to move, but where the conditions are favorable to them those which have motion are excessively lively.

PXESF.ST EVERYWHERE.

These little living forms are present everywhere the air reaches, but they swarm only where the temperature is favorable and there is plenty of nourishment. When there is decomposition, fermentation or putrefaction they develop in masses. The action of bacteria is seen in the following simple experiment: Put apiece of meat or a piece of any vegetable in a glass of water and let it stand. After a time the water will thicken up more or less, and then become milky. The milkiness is due to the bacteria which fill the water. When putrefaction is ended, and all the organic matter in whatever was put into the water has been consumed by the bacteria then the water clears up and loses entirely the offensive smell which it had. Without nourishment the bacteria are no longer active, nor are they developing as they were while putrefaction was going on. They sink to the bottom of the glass, and there as white sediment lie motionless. After a time they die.

As regards the activity with which bacteria multiply, many of them can double their numbers every hour when under the best conditions. When they do that then, Professor Law tells us, a single bacterium would in twenty-four hours produce no less than 10,777,220. At the end of forty-eight hours the number of offspring would number 231,500,000,000, and would fill a half pint measure, all produced from a single germ measuring i-i5,000 of an inch. "Fortunately, however, bacteria rarely so propagate themselves they will meet with all sorts of drawbacks, and thus, in spite of their enormous fertility, the survivors are in general only enough to keep a fair balance in nature." But all bacteria do not multiply as rapidly as this there are some which multiply very slowly—those which cause tuberculosis, for instance.

AH already stated, bacteria exist everywhere the air reaches like other living things, oxygen is essential to them. Where decaying matter abounds there are tlicy to be found in the greatest numbers. On the tops of the highest mountains and in mid-ocean they exist, but it is in such places that their number is the smallest.

INFLUENCE ON HEALTII.

Since we live in swarms of these minute beings, and almost every thing about us teems with them, we naturally ask what influence they have on health.

Science has conclusively proved that while many of the different forms of bacteria are practically harmless to men, here are some which seize upon him, and at times destroy him. It is known beyond all reasonable doubt that certain forms of bacteria produce certain diseases. Tuberculosis, for instance: there can scarcely lie a question but that it is causi-.l I iy special bacteria, and the most of the physicians of today will say that without these bacteria no tuberculosis or, in other words, unless that peculiar form of bacteria is present in a lung, there cannot lie consumption of it.

Then there is an anthrax, a malignant and fatal disease of certain animals, and identical with wool sorters' and ragpickers' disease that we knowr to be caused by bacteria, for the same has been found and its identity established beyond all question.

The inference to be drawn from the foregoing is clear. All bacteria, be they harmless or do they threaten man, always swann in the greatest numbers and multiply with the greatest rapidity where filth abounds and the more filth the more bacteria. One can never bo scot free from bacteria, but he can feel quite free from the harmful sort if he lives in pure air. with good surroundings, practices cleanliness, and has good water to drink and food to eat. Of course, disease germs may reach him even then, but^ie will have very little reason to fear them.—Boston Herald.

A professional rat catcher estimates the nunilier of rats in the United States at live for every man, woman and child in the eountry. For every child born there are twenty-eight rats, and each rat brought to its death costs the people an average of four cents. He says that if every person in the land should set out to bunt rats for a month the number could not be reduced to less than 100.000.000,—Detroit Krttj Press.

THE LATEST 'IN

THE WIZARD RABBI.'1

U© Told the Jutlgo How Many Days Ho Wan Going to Gut. An interesting caso of '-thought reading" camo before tho county court of Buda-Pesth a fow days ago, writes a Vienna correspondent Tho accused, a lively little man, was known as "The Wizard Rabbi," or '-The Thought Reader of Czernowitz." He was

charged

by a tradesman's assistant with cheating him out of a tlorin. On the table in front of tho judge were tho corpora delicti, consisting of a number of papers covered with hieroglyphics, two volumos of tho Babylonian Talmud and a bundle of circulars, which ran thus: "f*can read tho name, occupation, past and future of any man in his face. I can road his thoughts and give him good advice, particularly in matters concerning love, conjugal happiness^ different illnesses and traveling."

Tho first question put to the prisoner invited him to state precisely tho nature of his profession.

Prisoner—I am a "thought reador." There are no secrots for mo. By means of mathematics I can read everybody's thoughts. That is tho so-called "Talmudian art." I am now writing an important work, which will shortly be published.

Judge—Can you give tho court a specimen of your art? Prisoner—Why not?

Judge—Then tell mo how many documents there are in this drawer where I have my hand.

Prisoner—A little patience, please. Now, tako part of tho papers and put them on ono side, and let mo then glance at tho remainder. There—howmany have you put asido?

Judge—Fifteen. Prisoner—(without a moment's hesitation)—Then there are thirty-ono altogether.

Judge—Quito right you have guessed correctly. Hereupon followed an altercation between tho plaintiff and tho prisoner, after which tho bench entered into a brief consultation. When tho judgo was about to pronounce sentence tho accused exclaimed: "I havo read his thoughts again ho is going to send me to prison for four days."

Judge—Quito so. Right again. You will go to jail for four days. Call the next caso.

DIDN'T LIKE THE SERMON.

Sharp Criticism Upon a Preacher Who Itcpeated Pnul'a Epistles. There Is a familiar story about how Daniel Webster, when he was practicing law In New Hampshire, loftily denounced a quotation from a text-book made by a rival attorney as absurd and untenable, upon which tho opposing lawyer quietly explained that tho passago so contemptuously treated had been introduced into tho volume from ono of Lord Mansfield's decisions, that great jurist's exact language being preserved. Tho following anecdote about a famous old character in Whitley County, Ky., has much tho same flavor. Joshua Harnett was a wag ana a religious orator, and possessed a prodigious memory. The Jelico News tolls tho story: "Undo Josh, as he was generally called, had ar. appointment to preach ono Sunday at an out-of-the-way log school-house in his neighborhood, and two noted lights of a rival denomination attended tho meeting for tbei purposo of criticising tho sermon. One was named Jones, the other Warman. Uncle Josh, who, it appears, was aware of their intentions, concluded to checkmate them, and instead of preaching a sermon he commenced repeating from memory and without any comment whatever one of tho Epistles of St. Paul. For nearly an hour chapter after chapter fell from his lips accompanied by a grave and decorous gesture and intonation. Brother Jones at the end of some thirty minutes arose with grave disapproval written all over his face and retired from tho house, and took a seat in the yard upon a barkless and prostrate tree, which was used as a horse block. Brother Warman stood it some ton minutes lon^r, when he, too, arose and joined Brother Jones. 'Well, Brother Warman, what do you think of such a sermon?' said Brother Jones. 'Think?' said Brother Warman, 'why, I think if the good Lord will forgive me this time for listening to such rotten doctrine I will never be guilty again.'"

"Whales OfT North Carolina/ Every year from ono to ten whales are caught by tho whale fishermen under Cape Lookout, who havo their boats, harpoons, trying-out apparatus and all other paraphernalia of "shore fishing." A lookout is constantly kept, and every now and then the reward is in a largo whale. This animal lives in cold water, and it is surprising to find them on our coast so near tho gulf stream, says tho Ashovillo (N. C.) Citizen. Wo havo been informed that there is an Ashore Arctic current setting into tho bight under Lookout and down toward the Frying Pan shoals, and into this basin of cold water tho whales are tempted by tho peculiar food on which they live, and which they find thero abundantly.

A Strike of School-I)oyR.

The strike of tho Scottish school-boys which began in Hawick has spread to Glasgow, Oovan, Greenock, Port Glasgow and other places in tho west of Scotland, and also into Ayrshire and about Aberdeen. Tho boys havo formed regular labor-liko parades, with banners and cries for "shorter hours." Tho striko has also spread into England. Tho other day ono hundred malcontents paradod tho stroets of Barnet demanding "abolition of the cano, less hours in school, less parsing, and no homo lessons."

Secret Divorce In Colorado. Colorado is ono of tho States wherein tho "secret divorce" flourishes. Hundreds of them aro granted in Arapalioo County alone each year. Instead of seeking to stem the flood, tho Legislature every session increases its volume, until tho "secret divorce" in Colorado may now bo said to havo assumed tho •dimensions of a torrent.

Gen'l F. B. Spinola, Member of Congress from New York City, writes: "It is a public duty I perform when I testify to the remarkable curative powers cf Allcock's Porous Plasters. For several years I have been at times troubled with violent attacks of lumbago. They would last for several weeks at a time, and the pain would reach from the lumbar regions, not only to my feet, but to my finger ends. Some months ago I had a most severe attack, and was confined to my bed, almost paralyzed. I felt much discouraged, and thought of recurring to electric shocks, when Son" tor Nelson sent me six Allcock's Porous Plasters. I immediately applied three—one over the kidneys, one on the small of my back and one on my hip joint, where I had considerable sciatic pain. The effect was simply wonderful. In six hours I WHS able to sleep, the violent pain having mostly ceased. I continued to wear tho plasters for some days when I felt I was almost entirely cured, I kept them on for nearly a month as a matter of precaution."
