Eprron Transcriet:—You hit the nail square on_ the head in saying that the prisoners at the county Jail ought to do something to pay for their keeping. There is a certain“class of strapping fellows who like nothing better than to Jay around and be sure of thei meals from day to day, so long as they don’t have to earn the same; but if they know ‘that there party. It isone of the fundamental principals of the club that no married mancan be connected with it as a member. The instant that. 2 man takes upon himself m rimonial vows his name on the rollis cast into obscurity by having blood red lines of ink drawn avross:it, amd the simple word “Married” written opposite to indicate the unhappy fate of victim, Hehas violated. the Constitution, and the consequence is _ ignominious expulsion from the ranks " of the elect. Looking over the names: that have baen written in the boot forthe twelve years gone by, one finds that all the charter members have long’ since married; and of those who came after them. but a more handful still remain true to the requirements of the Constitution. A few have passed into the realms of the Hereafter,some have moved into other cities, but-the great majority have'settledxlown to providing for —~wives and babies. = __ H.

The following recipe seems a reasonable one, and is republished for. the reason that if it will not effect a cure, as claimed, no. harm is likelyto result from trying it : Should any of the family be attacked with diptheria, do not be alarmed, as it is easily cured by observing the following course of treatment: ee When it was raging in England a few years ago, I accompanied Dr. Field on his ‘‘rounds” to witness the so-called ‘‘wonderful cures” he performed." All he took with him was wader of sulphur and a quill, and with these he cured every patient without exception. He put a teawineglass of water, and stirred it with his fingers instead of a spoon, as the sulphur does not readily amalgamate with water. When the sulphur was well mixed he gave it asa gargle, and in ten minutes the patient was out of danger. . _ Brimstone cures every species of fungus iii man, beast and plant in a few minutes. Instead of spitting out the gargle, he recommends the swallowing of it. In extreme cases, when the fungus,was. too nearly closing to allow the gargling, he blew the sulthur through 4 quill into the throat, and after the’fungus had [shrunk to} allow. of it, then the gargling.° Tf a person cannot gargle, take a live coal,’ putit.on a shovel, and sprinkle a spoonful at atime on_it, holding the face over it, and the fungus will die.
