not by scrubbipg the door until

these are not the things which
give people colds; and yet they

The time for taking cold is af.
ter your exercise f; the place is in
your own house or Office or count
ing-house. 1t is not the act of
exercise which gives the cold !;
but getting cool too quick after
exercising. For example, you
walk very fast to get to the rail
way station, or TO the ferry, or to
catch the omnibus, or to make
time for an appointment; your
mind being ahead of you, the body
makes an extra effort to keep up
with it, when you get to the de-
sired spot you raise your hat and
find yourself in a perspiration !;
you take seat, feeling quite COM
Portable as to temperature, you be-
gin to talk with a friend, or if a
New Yorker, to read a newspaper,
and before you are aware of it,
you experience a sensation of
chilliness, and the thing is done ;
you look around to see where the
cold comes from, and find an open
window near, or a door, or that
you have taken a seat at the for
ward part of the car, and it moving
against the wind, a strong draft is
made through the crevices.
After all kinds of exercise, do
not stand as much as a moment
at a street corner for any body or
anything; nor at an open door or
window. Whenever you have
been exercising in any way what
ever, winter or summer, 60 home
at once, or to some sheltered place:
and, however warm the room may
seem to be, do not at once pull
off your hat and cloak, but wait
awhile-some five minutes oFmore,
and lay aside one thing at a time;
thus acting, a cold is impossible.
Notice moment When you re-
turn from a brisk walk and you
enter aWarm room, raise your hat
and your forehead will be moist,
let the hat remain few moments
and feel the forehead again, and it
will be dry, showing that the room
is actually cooler than your body,
and that with outdoor clothing
on you have really cooled of full

A ONE ARxED NAN Loses An Eye
The San Francisco Call of the 9Th inst.
records the following painful result ofa
most cowardly assault:
On Saturday last q one armed man
named John Hagarty, who had lost an
arm while serving in the Federal army
during the war of the re bellion, and who,
for more than . year, has been earning
. living by peddling fruit, cigars, ETC.,
throughout the city and at Fort Alcs-
traces, was unfortunate enough to incur
the anger of man named David Cole
man, on Davis street, who punched
Haeerty in the eye With walking stick,
inflicting . severe wound. Tho wound
ed man was taken to an Oculist, who,
upon examining the wound, announced
that the eye was destroyed. Officer Do
Ian leaning of the affair, arrested Cole
man on Sunday evening, and lodged
bin in the Calaboose, to await the re.
suit of Hagerty's injuries. The latter
is at the City and County Hospital IN
der treatment.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE GRAND

ed to serve as Jurors. The extension of poll
teal rights and the franchise to women is q
subject that is agitating the whole country.
have never taken part in these discussions,
but have long seen that woman was a victim
to the vices. crimes, and immoralities of man,
with no power to protect and defend herself
from these evils. l have long felt that such
powers of protection should be conferred
to act as pioneers in this movement, and to
test the question. The eyes of the whole
world are to-day fixed upon this jury of
Albany county. There is not the slightest
improperly in any lady, occupying this posi-
ton, and wish to assure you that the fullest
protection of the Court shall be accorded to
you. 1t would be . most shameful scandal
that in our temples of justice and in our
Courts of law anything should be permitted
which the most sensitive lady may not with
propriety hear and witness and here let me
add, that it will be 4 sorry day for any man
who shall SO far forget the courtesy due and
paid BY every American gentleman to every
American lady, as to even BY a word or act
endeavor to deter you from the exercise OF
these rights with which the law has invested
you. l will conclude with the remark that
this is question for you to decide for your
selves no man has any right to interfere. 1t
seems to me to be eminently proper for women
to sit upon Grand Juries, which will give
Them the best possible opportunities to aid in
the dens of infamy which curse
the country. shall be glad of your assist
ance in the accomplishment of this object. !
DO not make this remark from any distrust of
the gentlemen of Albany county; on the con-
trary, am exceedingly we'll pleased and gra-
lifted with indications of intelligence, love of
law and good order, and the gentlemanly de-
pertinent which 10 so manifested. Twill now

TIE SPARlsH CLAIM OF The MEADE
FAxILY.-This claim, arising under q
treaty of 1919 with Spain, was yester.
day argued before the Supreme Cour.
of the United States. Prior to the
signing of the treaty, R. W. Meade, the
father of Commodore Meade and General
Meade, who long resided in Spain, had
. claim against that Government on &C
count of certain contracts and alleged
injuries by personal violence, and which
was about to receive the attention of
that Government. Upon the signing of
the treaty, which provided that each
Government should pay its citizens any
claims held by them against the other,
and which had six months for ratifica.
ton, a court, which had been appointed
by the Spanish Government to adjudi-
cate the claims, deferred action until it
should be known whether the treaty was
ratified. At the expiration of the time
Spain failed to ratify, and gave notice to
Mr.. Meade to appear before it and pre-
sent his claim. This was done, aud the
court finally awarded him the sum of
1913 ,s79 SO, with interest from May,
1920, the date of the judgment. Sub
sequently the treaty was ratified BY
Spain, one condition being, as alleged,
that the United States should pay this

by the Government, under the treaty, to
ascertain all claims, before whom Mr..
Meade appeared and submitted his judg
