A medical news letter from London, dated Jan. 30, fold of 506 deaths In London in a wedk due to the grip. London has been having a tough winter and a very serious visitation of the epidemic. The Jamesburg (New Jersey) Reform School has a boy six years old having the manners and maturity of a man of twenty. He is altogether too precocious, too strong, too self-willed, and seemingly too dangerous to be at large. In cases of membranous croup the steam from vinegar gives great relief to the patient, but It should be kept up continuously by placing* the vinegar in an ordinary bread pan and putting hot flatirons from the stove into it. It is not pleasant for the attendants, and it is some trouble to keep up the steam this way, but a physician who has tried it thoroughly finds it very effective. Dr. F. Drewby reports a great increase of insanity among colored people since the abolition of slavery. From 1880 to 1890 the negro population increased only L 46 per cent, while the number of insane negroes doubled, so that now there is one to every 800—due, it is thought, to the abuse of freedom by a people who have been accustomed to discipline and regulation. Db. R. H. Habrison, recalling some ways in which people go crazy, cites a 'few cases seemingly due to isolation or too much centering the thoughts upon self. His conclusion is: “To have a sound mind and keep it have some interests outside yourself. If you have no family and bonne, do something for somebody. There are compensations connected with self-denial which the preachers have never told us of." Modern football is rather a warlike sort of pastime, and the London Lancet has been reviewing the accidents of the last season in England. It has reported twelve cases of death directly attributable to Injuries received in football matches, some of the causes of death being acute bronchitis, rupture of the intestines, rupture of the kidney, injury to the brain. If it be said that such accidents are the result of unnecessarily rough play, the reply is that the game is never played in any other way.—Foote’s Health Monthly. Femininities.

THESARATOGA MIRACLE FURTHER INVESTIGATED BY AN EXPRESS REPORTER. Th* F»eta»AlT»ndy Mated Fatty Conflrmvd —lnterview* with U»4l«t ,Phy*4el*a* Whs Treated QaaaS-Th* Most Marvvloas Cas* la th* History of Medical Bolanos. A few week, ago an article appeared la this paper copied from th* Albany (N. Y.) Journal, giving th* particular* of on* of the most remarkabl* cure* of the nineteenth century. Th* ertlcl* was under th* heading “A Saratoga County Miracle,’’ and excited such ittdaspread comment that another Albany paper—th* Ex pre**—detailed • reporter to make a thorough in veetlgattoa ot the statessant* appearing in th*-Jour-nal'* article. Th* fact* as elicited by th* Express Reporter are (Iren tn th* following article, which appeared In that paper on April It, aad make* on* of the meet Interesting stories ever related: A few week* ago there was published to tbe Albany Evening Journal th* story ot a most remarkable—lndeed. *o remarkable a* to veil justify th* term «nrtraou!o«s”— cur* of a *evere case of locomotor ataxia, or creeping paralysis; simply by th* d*e of Pink Pin* for Pal* People, *nd. in compliance with tastructfons, an Express reporter ha* been devoting some time to a critical Investigation of tbe real facta of the case. The story, ot the wonderful cure of Charles A. ■Quant, of Galway, Saratoga County, New York,* a* first told In “The Journal.’* he* been copied Into hundred* if not thousand* of other dally and weekly ■newspapers, and has created such a sensation throughout tbe entire country that It was deemod a doty du* all the people, and especially the thousands of similarly afflicted, that the statements of the case s* made In the “The Albany Journal* and copied into so many otlier newspapers, should, if true, be verified; or, iffalse, exposed a* an imposition upon pub-. 11c credulity. Tbe reeult of tbe Express reporter’s Investigations authorizes him in saying that the story of Charles A. Quant's cure of locomotor ataxia by the use of Pink Pills for Pale People, a popular remedy prepafed and put up by the Dr. William* Medicine Company, Morristown. N. Y., and Brockvllle, Ontario, IB TBUE, and that all It* statement* are not only justified but verified by the fuller development ot the further facts to the case Perhaps the reader* of the Express *re not all of' them fully familiar with the details of this miraculous restoration to health ot a man who after weeks and month* of treatment by the most skillful doctors In two of the best hospitals to the State of New York—the Roosevelt Hospital In New York City and Bt. Peter’s Hospital In Albany—was dismissed from each as Incurable and, because the case was deemod Incurable, the man was denied admission Into several others to which application was made In hl* behalf. The story as told by Mr. Quant himself and published to tne Albany Journal 1* a* follows: “My name Is Charles A. Quant lam 87 years old. I was born in the village of Galway, and excepting while traveling on business and a little while In Amsterd am, have spent my whole Ute here. Up to about eight years ago I had never been sick and was then in perfect health. I was fully six feet tall, weighed 180 pound* and was very strong. For twelv* years I was traveling salesman for a piano and organ company, and had to do, or at least did do, a great deal of heavy lifting, got my meals very irregularly, and slept In enough *spare beds’ In country houses to freeze any ordinary man to death, or at least give him the rheumatism. About eight years ago I began to feel distress in my stomach, and consulted several doctors about It They all said It was dyspepsia, and for dyspepsia I was treated by various doctors in different places, and took aU the patent medicines I could hear of that claimed to be a cure for dyspepsia But I continued to grow gradually worse for four yean. Then I began to havo pain In my back aad legs and became conscious that my legs were getting weak and my step unsteady, and then I staggered when I walked. Having received no benefit from the us* of patent medicines, and feeling that 1 was constantly growingworse, I then, upon advice, began the user of electric belts, pads, and all the many different kinds of electric appliances I could hear of, snd spent hundreds of dollan for them, but they did me no good. (Here Mr. Quant showed the Journal reporter an electric suit of underwear, for which he paid $124.) In tbe fall of 1888 the doctors advised a change of climate, so I went to Atlanta, Ga., and acted as agent for the Estey Organ Company. While there I took a thorough electric treatmerit, but It only seemed to aggravate my disease, and the only relief I could get from the sharp and distressing pains was to take morphine. The pain was so intense at times that it seemed as though I could not stand it, and I almost longed for death as the only certain relief In September of 1888 my legs gave out entirely and my left eye was drawn to one side, so that I had double sight and was dizzy. My trouble so affected my whole nervous system that I had to give up business. Then I returned to New York and went to the Roosevelt Hospital, where for four months I was treated by specialists and they pronounced my case locomotor ataxia and incurable. After I had been under treatment by Prof. Starr and Dr. Ware for four months, they told gne they had done all they could tor me. Then I went to the New York Hospital on Fifteenth street, where, upon examination, they said I was incurable and would not take me in. At the Presbyterian Hospital they examined me and told Me the same thing. In March, 1890, I was taken to St Peter's Hospital In Albany, where Prof. H. H. Hun frankly told my wife my case was hopeless; that he could do nothing for me and that she had better take me back home and save my money. But 1 wanted to make a trial of Prof. Hun's famous skill and I remained under his treatment for nine weeks, but secured no benefit All this time I had been growing worse. I had become entirely paralyzed from my waist down, and had partly lost control of my hands. The pain was terrible; my legs felt as though they were freezing and my stomach would not retain food, and I fell away to 120 pounds In the Albany Hospital they put seventeen big burns on my back one day with red-hot Irons and after a few days they put fourteen more bqrns on. and treated me with electricity, but I got worse rather than better, lost control of my bowels and water, and, upon advice of the doctor, who said there was no hope for me, I was brought home, where it was thought that,death would soon come to relieve me of my sufferings Last September, while In this suffering and helpless condition, a friend ot mine in Hamilton, Ont, called my attention to the statement ot one John Marshall, whose case had been similar to my own.’and who had been cured by the use of Dn Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, In this case Mr. Marshall, who Is a prominent member of the Royal Templars of Temperance, had. after four years of constant treatment .by the most eminent Canadian physicians, been pronounced incurable, and paid the $1,003 total disability claim allowed by the order In such cases Some month* after Mr. Marshall began a course of treatment with Dr. Williams* Pink Pills, and after taking some fifteen boxes was fully restored to health, I thought I would try them, and my wife , sent for two boxes of the pills, and I took ; them acoordiag to the directions M the J ■ •■.■*

wrapper on each box. the first fsw day* the cold baths w*r* pretty severe ** 1 was so vary w*ak, but I continued t<> follow to(truction* a* to taking th* pill* and th* tr*atm*nt, and area before I had used up the two box** of the pills I began to feel beneficial result* from them. My pains were not ao bad. I felt warmer; my bead felt better; my food began to relish and agree with me; I could straighten up; th* feeling began to oome beck into my liittbs; I bagap to be able to get about on crutches; my eye camo back again a* good a* ever, and now, after tbe **e of eight boxes of the pills, at a cost of only $4 esol—l can walk with the help ot a e*ne only, walk all about th* house and yard, can saw wood, apd on pleasant days I walk down town. My stomach trouble it gone; I have gained ten pounds; I feel like a now man, and when th* spring opens I expect to be able to renew my organ and piano agency. I cannot speak in too high tom* of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pill* for Pule People, a* I know they saved nay life after all th* doctor* had glvsm m np ns hearable. ” Buch la the wonderful story which the Express reporter ha* succeeded In secsrlng verification ot in all tt* details, from the hosgrttal record* where Mr. Quant was treated and from the doctors who had the ease in hand and who pronounced him Incurable Let It be remembered that all this hospital treatment was two and three years ago. white bl* cure, by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Ptll* for Pal* People, has been effected since last September, 189 L Bo It 1* beyond a doubt evident that hta recovery la wholly du* to the use of three famous pill* which have been found to have made such remarkable cure* to thl* and other cases. Mr. Quant placed to the hands of the reporter bls card of admission to Roosevelt Hospital, which is here reproduced In further confirmation of hi* statements: onm so ROOSEVELT ' „ wtJtKtnxn.. ‘ L. Ocnfatw» Wedn«sd*yt snd Fridsya * . (eissA To verify Mr. Quant’s statement our reporter a few days ago (March 31, 1892) called on Dr. Allen Starr at bls office. Na 22 West Twenty-eighth street, New York City. Dr. Starr Is bouse ph/sician ot the Roosevelt Hospital, situated corner of Ninth avenue and Fifty-ninth street. In reply to Inquiry te said he remembered the case ot Mr. Quant very well and treated him some, but that he was chiefly treated and under the more especial care of Dr. Ware. He said he regarded this case as he did aU cases of locomotor ataxia as incurable. In order that our teporter might get a copy of the history of the case ot Mr. Quant from the hospital record be fery courteously gave him a letter qf which the following Is a copy: * “Dr. M. A. Btarr, 22 West Forty-eighth street, office hours, 9 to U a. m.. New York, March 8L 1892.—Dear Dr. Vough't: If you have any Word of a locomotor ataxia by name of Quant, who says he came to the clinic three or four years ago, Na 14037, of the O. D. Dept, Roosevelt, sent to me from Ware, will'you let the bearer know. If you have no record send him to Roosevelt Hosp. - “Yours, Btabb.” By means of this letter access to the records was permitted and a transcript of the history of Mr. Quant’s case made from them as follows: “Na 14037. Admitted Sept Ifi, 1889, Charles A. Quant, aged 84 years Bom, U. 8. Married. Hoboken." *• “History of the case: Dyspesla for past four or five year*. About fourteen months partial loss of power and numbness in lower extremltiea Girdling sensation about abdomen (Nov. 29, 1889, not Improved, external strabismus of left eyb and dilatation of the left eye,) Some difficulty In passing water at times; no headache, but some dizziness; alternate diarrhoea and constipation; partial ptosis past two weeks in left eye. “Ort. R-F. Bl pep and Boda” These are the marked symptoms of a severe case of locomotor Ataxia “And Dr. Stan said a case with snob marked symptoms could not be cured and Quant, who was receiving treatment In the outpatient department, was given up as incurable. ” “There never was a case recovered In the world,” said Dr. Btarr. And then said: “Dr. Ware can tell you more about the case, as Quant was under his more personal treatment lam surprised.” he said, “that the man is alive, as I' thought he must be dead long aga* Our reporter found Dr. Edward Ware at his office, Na 162 West'Nlnety-thirt street New York. He said: “I have very distinct recollections of tbe Quant case. It was a very pronounced case. 1 treated him about eight mouths. This was In the early summer of 1896. I deemed him Incurable, and thought him dead before now. Imagine my surprise when I received a letter from him about two weeks ago telling me that he was alive, was getting well and expected soon to be fully recovered. ” “What do you think, Doctor, was the cause of hl» recovery?” — — “That Is more than I know. Quant says be has been taking some sort of pills and that they have cured him. Atalievents.l am glad tbe poor fellow Is getting well, for his was a bad casp and he was great sufferer.” Dr. Theodore R. Tuttle, of 819 West Eighteenth street, to whom our reporter is Indebted for assisting courtesies, said of locomotor ataxia: “I have had several cases of this disease in the course of my practice I will not say that it Is incurable. but I never knew of a case to get well; but I will say It Is not deemed curable by any remedies known to the medical profession. ” After this successful and confirmatory Investigation In New York, our reporter, Saturday. April 2d, 1892, visited- St Jeter's Hospital, In Albany, corner of Albany and Ferry Streets. He had a courteous reception by Sister Mary Philomena. the Bister Superior of St Peter’s Hospital, and when told the object of his visit, said she remembered the cart of poor Mr. Quant very distinctly. Said she: “It was a very distressing case and excited my sympathies much. Poor fellow, he couldn’t be cured, and had to go home in a terrible condition of helplessness and suffering.” The house physician, on consulting the records ot St Peter’s Hospital, said he found only that Charles A. Quant entered the hospital March 14th. 1890, was treated by Dr. Henry Hun, assisted by Dr. Van Derveer. who was then, IS9O, at the head of the hospital, and that his case being deemed not possible of cure, he left the hospital and was taken to his home, as he supposed to die. Such Is the full history of this most remarkable case of successful recovery from a heretofore supposed incurable disease, and after all the doctors had given him up. by the simple use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. Truly It Is an Interesting story of a most miraculous cure of a dreadful disease by the simple use of this popular remedy. A further Investigation revealed the fact that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are not a patent medicine In the sense in which that term is usually understood, but are a ■ scientific preparation successfully used In general practice for many years before being offered to tbe public generally. They contain In a condensed form all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood, and restore shattered nervea '1 hey ar* an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis St Vitus dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions that tired feeling resulting from nervous prostration; all diseases depending upon vitiated humors In the blood, such a* scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a specific for trouble* peculiar to females, such as suppressions, Irregularities, and all form* of weakness They build up the blood and restore the glow of health to pale or sallow cheeks In the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising front mental worry, overwork or excesses of whatever nature. 't On further Inquiry the writer found that these pills are manufactured by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Brockvllle, Ontario, and Morristown, N. Y., and are sold in boxes (never in loose form by the dozen or hundred) at 60 cents a box. or six boxes for $2.50, and may be had of all druggists or direct by mail from Da Williams* Medicine Company, from eiwer address The price at which these pißs are sold makes a course of.treatment comparatively inexpensive a* compared with other remedl«* or medical treatment

London’s Wlne-Yanlte. Tb* wino-vanlto of London are not to be seen every day or by *very peroon. I was fortunate enough to aecuro a “tastingorder,” and I, in company with one ar two other*, made a tour of the St. Katherine’s and London Dock vault*. I *aw over 5,000,000 package* of port and sherry, over 1,000,‘000 of claret, and 500,000 of spirit*. They were in vast tune, hogsheads, casks, and barrels, and the total amount in storage was 260,000,000 gallons. In fact, there were six and one-half gallon* for every man, woman adn child of the population of Groat Britain. Some of it had been in store for years. The owner* hod forgotten about it, and the old and moldy cask* had rotted away at their chine* and had been several time* replaced. One lot of 1,000 gallgh* of sherry had been in the vaults feff nearly fifty year*. It wm brought from the South of Spain S’ its owner, who had fallen dead in e vault*. The wine, along with hi* other propertv, had passed into chancery, and the litigation, which ha* continued for nearly half a century, is a* far from being ended, apparently, a* when it begun. But the wine has been growing old and valuable, and if sold now would probably bring 5 guinea* a gallon. Let me explain that these vault* ar* ■imply great cellars under the dockhouse*. In are* they aggregate *ome-thirty-five acres. They extend under the Thame* on one side and well under Tower Hill on the other. They are about sixteen feet from floor to roof, and are by no means regular in form, but reach out in strange passage* and alleys in all direction*. They are bonded by the Government, and owners can have their property in them a* long as they like without paying custom* duties. A long, narrow flight of well-worn •tone step* that have been in constant use since 1804 opened before our view, and at their foot were dim, twinkling lights that flickered fitfully, as if in a struggle to overcome the fumes of the wines that came up the stone channel like a breeze from a distillery. It waa warm, rich with the odor of the wines, and musty and moldy. A sniff of it wasn’t half bad, but you remember the fate of the Persian esthete who had his choice of death. “To die amid sweet perfumes,” he said. So they chucked him into a hogshead of attar of roses and he expired in great agony. At the bqjtom of the flight of steps the guide met us, a tall, broad-shouldered ruddy cockney, who handed us each a lard-oil lamp, fastened to a straight stick about eighteen inches long. He began >by asking us if any one wae a teetotaler. None of us were. “Because," said he, “if you don’t take a drop of something on your stomach you’ll get screwed because of the smelt” He drew a glass of sherry for each one of us out of a big cask near the foot of the steps. It was a heavy, full-bodied wine, with a rich nutty flavor and an aftermath like leather smells. It had been hung in leather skins over one season, having been the last made and too late for the regular wine harvest, but it was good for all that, and "wery mellowin’ to the horgans.” Turning then sharply to the left the vaults spread out before us in vast underground acreage.
