Asa rale, one attack f theae dlMasH confen immonity from a aafaeeqaant attack. A like immnnify from certun infectioaa aiaaaacii ia conferred by inoanlatiaB by a modified form of amall-pox, geoeialty fio- teeta againas the violent form. Paateor, of France, explaina sooh ^lenom- anaby aappoaiagtiiat the firat attack ez- hansta aome anbatanoe ia the patient eaaent- ial to the developmaat of a microsoopio paraaitea which canae tiie diaeaae and that those who are bora with aooh immunity are natually free from thia anbatanoeâ€" jaat aa aome lands which have been fertile in certain plant*, may loae thia fertilitr by ex hanation of a lingle element of tiie toil while other landa are natandly without thia element, and hence nnable to grow them. Thia ia the exhaustion theory. If thia theory were true, then the fleah of an animal thoa deatitnte of thia eaaeatial anbatance ahonld not, if made into a broth, fornlab material for the growth of infectioaa germa, purposely introduced. But theae germs do flooriah in it.' The antidote theory ia advocated by Kleba of Germany, and Kleinof England. Accord- ing to this, during the firat attack some chemic^ substance ia produced which ia antagouiatie to the infectious parasite or germ, and which remaina ia the oody of the animal and preventa the aubsequent develop- ment of tha latter this chemical substance ezista naturally in such u are insusceptible to the disease. The proof against tliis ia eaaentially the same as that against the ex- haustion theory. Blood from th« veins of animals characterized by immunity doea not kill the infectioua germs purposely in- troduced into it. Besides, the poisons thus generated must be supposed to remain in the veins for many years, or for Lfe while we know thit ac ^dental poisons, if not mortal, are always soon elimioated from the system. The theory advtuicad by the writer ia called " the vital reshtance theory." Vital characterisxics are inherited. Some persons inherit a fee;?le, and some a robust, constitu- tion some tendency to long life, some to early decay some a strong and some a weak resistuice to morbific iL'flitence. Farther, whatever lowers the vitality for a time, lessens this resistance. Whether feeble or strot g, this v'tal resistance is a property of the living m^ttter of the body and resides in ita elementary cells. These cells incessantly produce their kind. Hence, when the celLs have survived the firat attack, they have acquired a new power of resistance, and this new power is transmitted, in constant succession, t the new progeny of cells. As for inherited immanity, it results from tbe " survival of the fittest." Tne negro, as a race, is tclerant of malaria, because, living in malarial regions for ages, the moat an(c?ptible have been gradually killed off. Herbivorous animals are peculiarly suscept- ible to the poison of ptttr«^f action. It ia the reverse witn ti':e carnivorous. The latter, often feeding on putrid flesh and wounding each other with .heir teeth, have ever b en Kreatly exp :sed to the poison. Only those of least sus'i^ptibilfty have survived. Food and Sleep. The adage of " Early to bad and early to ri e makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise " is a good one if carried out, that is, if the early to bed induces early rising of itaeif but the waking of children to have an early bieakft-st with the family is an old time notion that, like many others held to extreme strictness in youth, is apt to be de- parted froiu id later yeais. Sensible people sometimes tiilk of sleep as though it were an accident of life that overtakes ua â€" some- thing we must at times succumb to, but as of nt- importiince to our well being ita hours can be broken in up-n, or be done away with as well as not, forgetting, or not real- izing, that tl ep and proper food a've abso- lutely ne.estiary for our life. If sleep comea not, we die if we eat not, we die there- fore it ia esential to health and comfort that both be furnished in sufficient quanti- ties and at regular intervals. Tb* writer has known an excellent mother who brought up her family wisely and well in every other way, except in regard to these two ijoints To the early breakfast at 6 o'clock, botti summer and win^r, the child- ren most come, or go without and the very fact that alwa' s going to bed early, and then were inclined to sleep longer in the moming, shows it was needed, and they (.hould have been allowed to awaken of ttiemselves. Then, too, the older children, coming home hungry from echool and find- ing the dinner distasteful (salt fiah, perhaps) â€" dinner that muat be eaten or have nothing, "It was good, wholeaome food â€" goml enough for anybody" â€" therefore the logic waa, ' You most eat it," and so the child, nibbling the distasteful food and finiahing on the lighter dessert, laavea the table on- satisfied and really unfed, for when the sharpened appetite is met by agreeable food the pleasure of eating cauaea the saliva to flow readily, and mixing with the food ia made ready for the atomach's digestion. Much of the discomforts and ilia cf later years cone from the utter ignorance and disregard cf these trutha and children should be taoght not by strict rules in re- gard to it, but by pleadng couveraation in the family, that sleep and eatipg are God- given blessings, not to be abuced.

The Frcmoh crown jewels aro not so famons or ao valuable as those of England. As it ia well known, the Koh-i-Noor is the most brilliant lugs diamond in the .world, and is worth many ndUion of dollars. There is notlilng to be ccmpand with it among pre- ci OS stones. Tst the French oolleotion is very valuable, and contains many jewels, famous historically, and rare and beautifal in themselves. Fublio attention has bean oUled io them recently from the fact that the question of selling them was agitated. A republican goverament has no use for such i^gal magni- ficence, and it muat b« said that they are an expensive luxury, when it is considered that they can never he worn as long as they re- main public property, and are really of no earthly utility to tha poaaessora. The preaent oolleotion is, of course, the result of the accnmnlaticn of centnriea, but tbere have been n? additioca since the time of Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette. When the Jacobins confiscated the property of king, nobility and clergy in 1789, the crown jewels were part of the spoil. The Democratio government, however, did not know what to do with their treasure. They adopted a neutral podtion, and ordeed an inventory to be drawn up. Thia decree of the National Assembly waa paaaed on the 22d of June, 1791. The inventory was to be snpjrinteaded by three deputies appoint- ed aa a oomittee for that purpose, Messietira, or rather Gitizena Bion, Delattre, and Christin. When published, the report of the com- mittee filled a volume of two hundred and seventy pages, containing descriptions of substantially the following jewels The French crown in Jane, 1791, waa com- posed of diamonds to the value of $3 300,- 000 pearls estimatea at $200,000 colored stcnej, $73,000. Besides these there were varims chains, watches, brooches, regalia of different or- ders of chivalry, etc, etc., valued at $1,170,- 000. The total value of the entire collection was about $5,000,000, not a startling sum when compared with the crowns of other couatries. The unique gems of this inventory, as of all inventories past or future, is the Regent diamond, estimated by the experts at the sumcf 12 000.000 francs, or $2, 400. 000. Tbe stose derived ita name from Philippe, Dae a'Orleans, who waa Ksgent of France during the minority of Louis XV. He did not pay a quarter of ita presant value for the diamond. Conaiderel aa a business transac ion, the purchase may be regnarded as a remarkably good bargain on the part of the duke. Among the principal gems may also be noted a diamond n tiie form of a pear lyiog on a peach blossom, weighing about twenty- four carats, and valued at 200,000 francs. Another diamond, out in the shape of a boat, is very beautiful, and ia regarded as worth the sum of 250,000 franca. Bat that which above all, after the Re- gent, holds the firat phoe, ia the Saucy dia- mond, ona of the half a dozea historic stones of Europe. This is estimated at 1.000,000 francs in round numbers. Several other diamonds, also very remark- able, vary in price, according to their wei)ht, their cut and their water between 10 000 and 250.C00 franca There are many pearla enumerated in the inventorv of 1791 which att«iavery high fig- ures, 150,000 and evea 200 000 franca. The most beaatif ul rubies of this collection are none of them worth 50,000 franca, and few even approach that value. The fiaest emerald cost 12 000 franca, but a aapphire of thirty-tvo carate ia estimated at 100,000 francs. The atones of the Order of the Holy Spirit (Cordon Bleu), worn by the king, are valaed at double that ami'ont. The Order of the FJeece of Gold (Toison d'Or), with its various tittle stoaes, reaches the value of about 3.000 000 francs. The large blue diamond cut in the shape of a triangle, which waa the princioal piece of this oecoration, is valued at $600,000 in it- self alone. A second diamond, also blue, but of a clearer shade, at $60,C00 There ia a large ruby cut in the form of a dragtn, the " king'a epaulette," a very handsomely arranged aet of coloired atones, and la parare Blanche (the white aet) alao a beautifal arrangement. The King'a Svoid is a very pretty piece of work onlta handle, ita hilt, ita scabbard, and ita guard there are three hundred and twenty- two rose-out diamonds. The plaque of the Holy Spirit contained two hundred and ninety white brillianta, and a little raby, without oounting the large diamoad of oval from which constitut- ed the body of the mystic dove, the heart- ahaped diamond which formed ita head, the oval diamord which served for ita tail, and the two elongated diamonds which represent- ed ita two wings. The jwioe of each of these diamonda varied from 15.000 to 70 000 franca. Besides the plaque, which the king wore over his coat, the Order of the HolfSiMt had a cross attached to alarge Gordon i^ra This cross contained one hnndivd aad s^tv diamonda. ' A oertdn nomber of the orawn jewels had been monnted as buttons on tiie olotUns of the monaroh. There were twenty-eight larg* bnttona for the coat, eighteeen smallnr for tha vsst. and ten little stones for aaotiur garment.

Thu is demonstrated by tba oholera epi- demio in Itily, Spain andFrince, and near- er home, by tiw present lameatabls ej^damio of small-pox in Montreal. Sanitary officials are regarded much as rata regard oats, as their natural auemtcs, and are op;owd and deoeivsd at every point, while Oeatfa gathers nnhindored an abundant harvest thionghoat the land. The prinol|»l factor in the spread of epi- demic diseases among the Latins in Eastern towns and cities btfceirgsneral poverty, and tha overarowdiog which prevails, living hud- dled together in old and dilapidated man- sions wiA have ceased to be servioeab^e as bote's, warehonsei or dwellings for the rich, abandoned to the poor who swarm through them like anta in an anthill, bat unlike anta, living in filth and squilld poverty with ita oonoomitant conditions. Such was overorowded London in 1348 when the Bl.ck Death claimed a holooanst of 100,000 as the penalty for violation of natu- ral law, while at the sime period, in the towns and citiea of the continent of Earope where the conditions among the masaes v ^re even worse, and the most horrible negUot of the most ordinary sanitary preoantions pre- vailed, 25 millions of persons, or a fourth i part of the entire population, was sw^pt away by it. Other epidemics oocurred equally destruct- ive to human life. All of them owed their origin and maintained their violence through the favoring uncleanly habitaand feirfnl im- sanitary conditions under which they lived. In England, amall-pox pestilences were of frequent occurrence, and so widespread i nd terrible was their devastating effects, carry- ing off from 30,000 to 60.000 son Is in one year in the Midland countiea of England alone â€" that phili^nthropijta were moved to seek a remedy, and found one in th practice of in- oculation of the diaeaae itaeif as practised in Turkey tnd introduced intu England in 1721 byXiady Mary Moatagne. wife of the then Turkbh Ambassador. Thb practice had the effect of oonferriog sn immunity from fnrthw attacks, bat often resaited in a severe attao and in spreading the disease by contagion. Finally, in 1794, Jenner, aotingnpcn the pop- ular idea prevalent among tiie peasantry, that persons who had aooidentally acquired horae or oow poxfromhandling Mifm^i could nurSe smallpox patienta without rbk of taV- ing the disease, and, an opportunity boour- ring, introduced the practice of vaccination, which he tested three months after on hb first caseâ€" the boy Poilipsâ€" by re-vaccina- tion (called Bryce'a teat) and incculatiou with the small-pox virus itself, when, to his great satisfaction the boy was foand to be proof against either. And thai be- gan praoticiUy, the greatest boon ever conferred by sinitary scisDceâ€" although in Gottingen, in Oermany, and in the neigtabor- hood of Cork, Ireland,- vaccination appears to have been practised among the peasa ^try by the mothers themselves long anterior to .{enner's discovery. Indeed there b a tomb- stone in a village in Herefordshire, which beam an inscription some years prior to Jen- ner s dbcovery, to show that the party buri- ed there waa the firat to practice vaccination in E-tgland but Jenner made it popular The epidemioa of the Middle Agea, graph- ically depicted by Heokel are atWbatodby Dr. Gay, in hu excellent trwitiaa on pnblic health, to overcrowdfaig In walled towns and cities m which no attentbn wA paid to sewerage, water sapply, or babite of panon- al clsanlmeaa and It most bs nnmbersd that these epidemioa were not locaL appear- ing only h«re and th«., bat Wide spSad, sometimeo devMtatfag wholo countries or traversing aa aatiia ooatineat, aad in the Ignorance and aapentiticm of the people w«r« regarded as vl itetlons of God^ KS^I^ national dmstor. ^^ " In the twdfth oentnry there were fifteen wldesprMd opidemlos snd nineteen fauniaes • andintiiotMrteanth oentnry tweStyS-' deimos aad nineteen famines: and L the fonrtoentii oentury eight epldemlosand nine fa-nine^ "TS'P'fK »way whole oommonittes of people Uving In filth and dependant unro lag, bronght about fauaiae lud pestibnoaii.
