LOCAL NEWS, ROUSING REPUBLIC The Meeting Held Satnr and Addressed by Baldwin, Esq. ANS, »hin N, The Republicans seem to be unfortu- nate in their selection of nights on which to hold political meetings. Saturday night was another unfortunate one, rain and mud making it more desirableto stay by the home fireside than to wade out in the storm to hear one of our own towns men speak. Yot there was a good-sized gathering, despite these adverse circum t the well 1ces, an indication not only th Republicans are gotting prott but also that John N aroused, the spe: sort of a prophet who has no honor in his own country. Those who expected to have enough of treat to ropay them amply not disappo nted. Mr. Baldwin entered into the discu sion of the issuces of tho day with his |usual * cnthusiasm, and clear, logical | thinking, He pictured the history of the two parties during the past score of years, and comparing one with the other, drew some v forcible conclusions to the effect that the good and faithful servant should not now be thrown aside to make room for one who had proved so un- worthy of the having He leaned to the protective theory, and discussed some features of the rev enue and tariff, showing that he was 1 no means a superficial student of these intricato matters. In regard to the temperance question he urged the Republicans to stand firm to principle, and not be afraid to express their honest convictions, He predicted a glorious Bepublican victory this fall, and throughout his address his views were heartily endorsed by the applause of his hearers Baldwin, w of the evening, is not that | | gathered there an oratorical They woro e To strengthen and build up the system a trial will convince you that Brown's Tron Bitters is the best medicine made. i PERSONALS, Col.

Our course lay through Lake Malaren for two or threo hours, then out through a short canal into an estuary of the Baltic sea, and thoneo along the rugged coast with its thousands of islands, large and small, joged edges of rock just level with the surfaco of the water” and white caps showing where others were, and our course marked in the most primitive way by what looked like inverted broomsticks. The pilot steered directly for these, and would leave them to the right or left by from three to twenty feot: The steamer run by time—three, five, or ten minutes, at full speed, to go from one ef theso stakes to another, and had run eleven and three quarter minutes when two tremendous bumps and a crash of glass and crockery made us aware of the fact that we were on a sunken rock--time, 5p.m. It had been raining, but had stopped. The wind rather fresh, not a light-houso in sight except the one some ten or twelve miles behind us. In an instant all was confusion. There were about eighty persons on board. There woro two miserablo hoats capable of holding a dozen persons. These wore launched as quickly as they could bo freed from the mass of freight that had boen piled up about them. They were is under Dr. Paulson's care. Ho is suffering from fover contracted while on a recent visit to Arizona. I, 1.

T went to the captain and asked him what T should do to help. He said: *‘Go to the bridgo and wait for me. When 1 want you 1 will call or come for you,” We shook hands and I went up, and fortunately found a lifo-proserver (there were not half a dozen on board.) With this I stood there in the darkness alone, waiting for the boats togome back. Again and again they camo and wont, but tho captain had sent no word, so 1 went down, The water was then neatly to the lower deck, and only three passengers besido mysolf were left on board. The captain called to me, and I asked him if I could take my rugs. Ho said yos, and T threw thom in the boat, and we were soori on the rock.

While ' the bear camped under him hu could not use his lance, the cabin noat being long enough. Thompson at last got the animal outside the door by tossing one of his stockings out, which the bear lounged out to investigate. That got him far enough to be prodded and Thompson prepared, When the grizzl had sniffed the bait it turned mumfv fourth or fifth trip of the boat. I found a Mr. and Mus, J. B. Cooper, of Dobb’s Ferry, N. Y., who with our- welves were the only English or American passengers. Very fortunately for me, 1 had changed a light svit which I had worn during the day for a heavy one, and when the steamer struck 1 slipped on my overcoat and felt as warm nn«i comfort- able as could be expected under the circumstances. We wrapped our rugs about the Coopers, who were invalids, and I went to work helping to haul up such stuff as the sailors were bringing ashore from the wrees. She had rolled well over on her side, and it was tedious work getting off the baggage and some provisions and water. Finally we had all the baggage and two large sails, with which the sailors rigged up a small shelter, which also served the purpose of a signal, About 1 o'clock it rained, and, as the shelter could only cover a dozen of the party, the rest had to remain outside in the wet, We did the best we could for all hands, but got no rest; so we waited for dawn and daylight. We named our sting-place Salvation rock. [t was about 400 or 400 feet long and 200 feet wide, There was not a tree or bush on it. But there wero beautiful daisies, bluebells, and a sort of violet.

It is like a man trying to mend a leak in a water pipe by soldering it with a poker. He generally makes the hole bigger. It is, of course, the most diflicult part of the physician’s duty to diagnose the disease, to tell what is the real troublo with the patient. It is not uncommon _for even educated phynh ians_to mako mistakes in this respect. The scienco of medicine has jrogressed 80 far that évery part of the human body has been pfotty thoroughly studied, umf the treatment of the ailments of each part is a specialty.

Somoti.aes a patient will be treated by successive physicians for the wrong ailment, because some of the symptoms of different diseases are similar. Hew unlikely is it, therefore, that persons who have not studied medi- cine can find out what ails them?” “Which do you think do the most self- doctoring, women or men?” ““Women, decidedly, especially mothors and old women, Tho rockless temerity of some women in this respect is wonder- ful. They rush in where angels fear to tread. ilm«tily judging from a few symptoms that a case resembles one which t{m family doctor has treated, they will hunt up an old preseription and admini- stor the dose to some confiding husband or helpless child. T could tell you some amusing stories of the mistakes that are mado in this way, as well as some in- stances where more serious consequences resulted. Take, for illustration, a headache. 1t may come from a dozen difforent causes—from hunger, from indi- gestion, from oyerexcitement of the brain, from eating too much, from inhaling foul ai The remedy for a headache varies with its causes. Yet you will find women who have a universal panacea for head- ache, rogardless of the cause. Beware of such women.” “With what medicines is the most harm el “Opintesand aperients, The hoedless- ness with which morphine in various forms is now administored in families is alarming. The doctor comes to attend a patient who is in pain, He prescribes morphin, and_directs its use, and tho patient is relieved. This is enough to start the average matron on u course of fell destruction with morphia. The next patientmay be of a differonttemperament, or sex, or age, requiring either-a different kind or quantity of the opinte, but the old presctiption will be_used, or, worse than all, will be revived from memory. Some drug stores watch carefully, and refuso to dispenso such drugs without a presciption in every case; but there are many too eager to make money and to care much whether the patient is being treated by a doctor. 'The same is true of the use of bromide, of chloroform, and of other, The bottle that is left partly filled in a family after one patient has been treated is pretty sure to bo used for another without the doctor’s knowledge. Asforparegoric and laudanum, the amount of stupefaction that is practiced upen children by their use is so common as almost to cease to attract attention. Perhaps the child is naturally peevish, or is cutting teeth, or has some infantile ailment; out comes the paragoric or soothing_syrup bottle, and before long the small dose ceases to have effect. Then large doses are given, until the unfortu- nnto youngster’s system is saturated with the drug and totally deranged.
