USEFUL REMEDY OR MORSMAN WARMLY PRAISES BORIC ACID BORAX). It is An Antiseptic, Very Mild But Continuous and Deserves a General Recognition. I can remember Well when one pound of boric acid, or boracio acid, ns it was originally named, was a sufficient stock to last a druggist for a year. Then anti septis was almost unknown and boric acid was only used for eye washes. Its qualities were little understood. Now twenty pounds is not a large order and is soon dispensed, some of it going out in pound cartons. Horae acid is found impure in nature, either alone or in chemi cal combination with other ole incuts. It is found in some min eral waters and can lm obtained from sea water. It can also be prepared chemically from any of the borates, but the principal source of supply for this country is the native borax mines of Cali fornia, and as these mines are controlled by the Pacific Coast Borax Co., of *'20 mule-team" notoriety, so also they poetically | control the market and furnish the supply of boric acid. Boric acid is an exceedingly weak acid, even when we use the word “acid” in the ehemi ■•al sense. As the word acid is used by the public it does not apply to boric acid at all. The J chemist calls it boric acid he-! cause it belongs by its nature and composition to the acid class of( chemicals nad not to the basic or alkaline class. This drug is rarely used for in ternal medication. It was thought at one time that it would prove a good intestinal antisep tic, but it did not meet expecta tions. While it is classed as non poisonous, it has its dangers in over-doses when given internally. It has been abandoned as an in ternal remedy, but its field is large enough as an external rem edy. It is an antiseptic; very mild, but continuous in its action and -,— Here’s 4 New And Better Way To Keep Things Clean I Avoid drudgery in the kitchen in I cleaning pots, kettles and pans, in I scrubbing floors, cleaning wood work, bath-tubs and keeping things I clean throughout the house.

This places it among the very useful remedies and this ac counts for its rapidly increasing sale. I told about Peroxide of hydro gen some time ago, and explain ed its antiseptic actions, hut these two drugs <lo not conflict.. Per oxide is quick,energetic, thorough hut soon spends itself. Boric arid is mild, slow, continuous. Both can he used in the same wound with benefit the peroxide to lie gin the work and render the wound aseptic and clean; boric acid to continue tin* action and maintain the antiseptic condi tion. Hither can he used alone, lint they seem to he made to go shoulder to shoulder in t heir w ar fare against germs. There are other germicides more active than either of these, hut for domestic and general use these are the ones par-excellence, lie cause they are cfficint in all hands and their is no element o£ danger in either. I advised you to put peroxide of hydrogen iu your medicine closet, and I also advise you strongly to add powd ered boric acid to your stock; with these two you can give effi cient “first aid” in any ease of wounds or cuts. You can treat intelligently any sore or abscess and th<‘ surgeon who comes lat er, if lie he needed, will approve your actions. To apply boric acid to a wound simply sprinkle it over the en tire surface. (Quantity is a matter of no consideration. Whether the wound be on man or animal does not matter. It is just as valuable in the barn as in the house. Many healing powders are to be had that contain boric acid. Some of these are much more ef fective and quicker in their act ion. This is especially true of veterinary healing powders, be cause it is not necessary to be careful about the odor of a vet erinary powder and with that restraint removed it is easy to compound an antisceptic that combines the quick, energetic, act ion and the continuous effect. Boric acid is odorless, which is another of its good qualities. As an ey* wash or lotion.it is unique because here again it is exceed ingly beneficial in its action, but without a single element of dan ger. “What! No danger as to how much I put in my eye?” you are apt to exclaim on read ing that sentence. I assure you it is self-limited by its soluabil ity. Water will only hold about five per rent. You can dissolve more by beating, but it will crys tal izc out in cooling. The cold watur solution is strong enough to be effective for general use but entirely inside the danger limit. Such a solution can be used with benefit in nearly all cases of sore eyes from the irri iHtion of grippe or head colds to inflamation and supportation. 1 say with benefit, but I do not ad vise you to depend upon home treatment if the case is serious.

All had an enjoyable time. Chautauqua. The Chautauqua has come and gone. While it was not a seven-days-wonder, and there are those who are wont to kick be cause it did not satisfy all their extravagant expectations, it was good. The class of entertain ments provided graded high. The management is to be congrat ulated upon having provided a program, remarkably clean, and wholesome. It was free from anything that might offend the most fastidious, and yet in the whole, reasonably within the range of those who made up the large bulk of listeners. We are only sorry to learn that the en terprise is not a financial suc cess. It is unfortunate that cheap and often vile amusements pay well, while attractions th^t are for the edification of the public go broke. New Paper For Salem. We had occasion to go to Sa lem last week in the interest of a capable newspaper man who is looking for a new location. We interviewed some half score of Salem’s best business men and were most favorably im pressed with the outlook there for a new plant. We had abso lutely no desire to take advan- ^ tage of the men interested in the Index and were everywher giv en to understand that the Index had fully decided to go out of business. This week we received a letter from Messrs Kjckham and Twist severely arraigning us for our temerity, and asking for an ex planation. We trust this will be self-explanatory to both the pro- * prietors of the Index and to the citizens of Salem. We sent two men to Salem Wednesday to in terview the Index and if possi ble arrange an understanding. Our friend will start a paper in Salem if Salem so desires, if not wanted, of course we will keep hands off. The Tribune sought to do our sister town in her mis fortune agood turn and sincere ly hopes that our intentions will not be misunderstood. Valuable Horse Cut. While Simon Beaehy was crossing the bottom, in going around the big dredge, which was crossing the road, last Thursday night he ran into a fence, severe ly cutting his fancy bay. The animal bled profusely, and by the time Mr. Beaehy was able to reach town and get help the horse had nearly hied to death. The wound is healing nicely but will leave the animal a marked - animal for life. Mr. Beaehy has sued the Drainage Board for damages. Notice to the Public.
