SHUT YOUR MOUTH.
A Suggestion Well Worthy of Publicity
In q Winter Atmosphere.

tChicago News.l
A paper recently read before the Canada
Medical association, in Montreal, treats o.
the causes, serious consequences, prevention,
and cure of what the writer terms buccal
breathing-in plain English and more cor
rectly, breathing through the mouth.
As is the fate of all hobby-riders,
sooner or later his hobby has run
away with him, and he undoubtedly
e1aggerates the serious consequences of the
habit against which he inveighs. Neverthe
less enough remains, after making due al
lowance for his enthusiasm, to warrant both
the public and the medical profession in
paying more attention to the subject than is
usually done. Athletes, professional train
ers, hunters, mountaineers, all physically
strong and perfect men, habitually breathe
through the nostrils. One may breath
mephitic gases, or the smoke of a burning
building, for a short time through the nose
if the lips be kept tightly closed when he
would quickly suffocate if he attempted to
breathe through the open mouth.
The function or sen=e of smell, which is
commonly considered tn chief end of mans
nose is really very subsidiary part of its
business. Through the nose the air is puri-
fed, tempered, and lnoistened before it
reaches the sensitive larynx and lungs. For
eign and irritating particles are arrested in
their passage through the nasal cavities;
the temperature Of the air is raised to that
of the body, while it is moistened by the. Sc
cretions of the membrane which lines its
labyrinths and Of the glands which it lodges.
The dust which loads a city's atmosphere
filth is an impalpable powder-fndS ready
access to the upper portion of the air-tubes
and gullet through tho mouth, but is almost
entirely deposited on the moist mucous sur
faces of the winding. shell-llke nasal
passages in proper breathing.
The usual effect of the first mouthful Of
cold air in a sharp winter atmosphere is to
provoke a cough and q prompt closure of the
lips to guard the sensitive structures Of the
larynx and vicinity, as there are few who
have not awakened in the morning with dry,
harsh tongue, throat and palate, when from
any cause nasal respiration has been impeded
during sleep, the secretion of the mouth be-
ing neither suitable nor sufficient to keep the
surfaces moist under such circumstances.
Catarrh and throat affections are much less
common among those who keep the mouth
shut and habitually breathe through the
nostrils This of itself, where the diseases
are so prevalent as the result of our climatic
conditions, should lead to the general adop-
ton of practice which has many other and
obvious advantages.

THE HORSE RADIsH TRADE.
Considerable Information About the Root
and the Way 1t Is Raised.


Considerable Information About the Root
and the Way 1t Is Raised.
New York Times.l
The seller of all sellers of horse radish has
a store in Third avenue. He does business
by the wholesale, selling es much as twenty
four tons year. The business has descended
to him from old Capt. Post, who first ped
died horse radish in New York more than
fifty years ago. The captain started with
only basket; now the business employs
wagons, drivers and clerks. The captain
was famous in his day, as much on account
of his jollity and good nature as the excel
lent quality of his horse radish He was con-
spicuous as a politician, always taking part
in professions and celebrations. and some-
body thought enough of him to write a book
about him. In early days roots were small,
short, and otherwise poor in comparison
with roots nowadays Before he died man
aStonished him in Avenue G one day by
showing to him a root that weighed four
pounds. An incident that his descendants
are proud of is that he was the first man in
New York to put springs on wagon.
I'VE supply about 300 hotels and rsstau-
rants, the present dealer said, "and we get
orders from great many cities. l had an
order the other day from New Orleans. Oh,
no. We don't depend on luck farmers for
our supply. We have it Iflsed for US in New
Jersey. The demand is 50 constant that we
keep the roots the year round, and besides
the truck farmers don't rise enough for U.s.
1t takes whole season to grow, and Is gen
orally due in September. There has been as
much progress in raising horse radish as in
raising Strawberries almost Here's root
from our supply farm See how long the
end is, and how round and full the head
That had to be cultivated Thirty years
ago you couldn't pick out four roots like
that in two barrels. Here are foui
without stopping to pick. This other root
came from Pennsylvania. l bought a lot to
see what it is like But they don't know the
business of raising horse radish out there.
This root you see has four or five heads. Il
is hard to clean and there is good deal OF
waste. The man who raised this ought u
have uncovered the head when it was just
shooting up and clipped off some of the lower
heads. The wound would have healed and
the growth would have gone into the top.
most head Many persons think that most
of the roots sold grow wild But it is
mistake. OF course you and l have sesn
them growing wild, but they need cultiva
ton to be perfect. They should be dug in
the fall. but they may be kept in the ground
until spring. Frost doesn't hurt them, but
they are never so good in the spring.
There is one thing about horse radish that
haven't been able to find out in the thirty
years have sold it. and that is how to kssp
it after it has been grated 1t can't be done

A Veterans Recollections.


Il was in Washington in 1872, and whtIs
visiting over in Alexandria in that year
saw the first troops called out to fight the
British as they entered Washington to be
armed. l remember it as well as if it had
been yesterday, for stood on the street a.
the boys marched by with beating drums
and flying banners. Washington was
struggling little village then, and Alexandria
was one of the great cities of the country"
The speaker was Col. S. d. Betton, now of
Cuthbert, Ga, but recently of Butler county,
Alabama He stood and talked to a reporter
for an hour at the union depot Sunday night
and his conversation was most interesting.
Betton is 70 years old, is still hale and
hearty, and as spry as a boy of 20.
Il wen: with Lafayette to France in 1925"
continued the old gentleman. How well
remember it. We sailed in the frigate

river, Sept. IL, 1926. There were forty-two

names and their fate-what became of each
of them. Oh, we had a big time then.

lGS boys and girls, and of that number only

names of all the people living in Milledge-
vile at that time, distinguishing between
males and females"
Col Betton was stockholder in the first
railroad enterprise ever inaugurated in this
Countrywide Baltimore q Ohio in 1927. He
was then in Washington, and subscribed for
stock at the very outset of the enterprise
Now there are l25, 900 miles of railroad in
the United States.
Col Betton was an officer in the United
States navy some fifty odd years ago. He is
a wonderfully well preserved old gentleman.
He says: "I never had any pains at all am
perfectly well, and have worked like slave
all the year" And with that he held up his
hands to show that they had become horny
from work He is just as jolly and full of
fun as any boy. and bids fair to live to be
100 years old

lCor. Cleveland Leader.
In 1s4S was reappointed United States
district attorney for Michigan, and at once
l started again for Daniel Brown, the
counterfeiter, and he, to escape me, fled to
California in 1850, taking with him SSO,OOG
of spurious and counterfeit bank bills of the
State Bank of Missouri, that never sus-
pended payments and in the mountains of
California he exchanged all his counterfeit
bills for California gold slugs, and hurried
back to Cleveland and Akron, paid off his
counsel, Hon r. P. Spaulding, still living
there, paid off the in cumbrances on the l. 20t
acres of land on the island, gave his mother
several thousands of dollars, and then died
of consumption, to which he had ALWAYS
strong tendency, and was buried. But that
is not the end. The Missouri Pukes, as we
called them in California, in almost three
months found that their 800 Missouri bank
bills were worthless, spurious, and counter
felt, ana SO they got together, appointed a
committee Of three to follow Dan Brown
home to Cleveland, compel him to refund
their $50, 600 or kill him in his tracks And
home the committee came
Going to Cleveland, they called on Judge
Spaulding, who was amazed to see such a
body on such an errand. He explained
Browns arrival, the disposition of his money
and his death, but they were incredulous
and so they went to Akron, taking Judge
Spaulding with them. There they found
Browns mother and his widow, but theiI
money was gone, and Dan Brown was in hi s
grave, as it was said, but they would not be
lieve it. So they went to the cemetery, haG
his body disiD.erred, the coffin opened, when
sure enough Daniel Brown was beyond the
reach of courts, vigilance committees, and
even Missouri gold-diggers. They went
back. resolved that henceforth, like old
Thomas Benton, they would be bullionists
only.
Now ask Judge Spaulding If this strange
story is not literally true =
