HOW TO PREVENT DlStiA;

A Physician P,»iievrs C«i;Kii!n;ii.v.‘ ■- Should Not Many. At a recent ieetuio Dr. Potler •>' bfiny said that coriHnmpti.on ■ moat fatal of all diseases. To pthis fearful malady ho maintain; j . all animal foods must bo esa.. . also all animals that furnish food, the food furnjshed to them, bhouid gfich animal be found to be oftlie* with tuberculosis, it should iuste be killed and cremated to prevent .. Ipread of the germs. would also involve a circumspection of railroad ems and steamboats to prevent people afflicted with tuberculosis boarding them. Then, again, a mail afflicted with tuberculosis should not be allowed to marry a healthy woman. The same applies equally to u woman afflicted in the same way, and still more to man and woman If both of thorn had tho disease. “1 advocate," added the doctor, the enactment of statutes by tho legislators prohibiting such ma.HagcS and making parties contracting them criminally liable.” Dr. Potter next outlined the history of typhoid fever and said that no means bad yet been discovered to prevent it from spreading. Tim same thing might also be said of diphtheria. The speaker Said that tho first necessary step in the prevention of disease was the instruction of medical men, who should acquaint the people with the methods of preventing all diseases and not inform them how to cure thorn when they got them. Dr. Potter said that it was possible to prevent tho spread of diphtheria by seeing that tho throats of persons who v/c ro apt to be exposed were protected so that there would be uo inoculation.

The right sort of a hairbrush used on the scalp two or three times a day will remove every perceptible trace of dandruff. The scalp needs care, and to reacii it the baif should ba cut with tb* comb at intervals of extreme proximity, so as to bristle every portion of the akin and brush away tho scurf. The metal woven brush is not to be recommended unless the desire is to produce baldness. What is known in the trade as the barber brushes aro the best, of which the unbleached and undyed hoar’s bristle is fir.it choice. A black brush conceals the diii, mid a dirty brush will not clean th\i head. If tho bristles are dyed, they will have lost sumo of their firmness, and instead cf going through the hair or scraping tho scalp they will bend under pressure. A woman’s hairbrush tv eld biivo bristles not more than half , Vi !i ir.'g, unbleached white prefer . d. ami sti-.f enough to scratch but not in it •■•. to tho ecu ip.

How to Prepare Game. Dark fleshed birds, like duck and grouse, should be served as rare as roast beef—that is, so that the blood runs when they are cut.

Quail require between 15 and 18 minutes and partridge from S3to 40 minutes. All this means with a good, brisk oven.
