Nervous Origin of Colds,

Whenever owing to any arrangement OF
the nervous system, the perfect maintenance
Of animal heat fails to be- carried out, disor-
der ensues, the midest form of which is a
catarrh, namely, the blocking up of the skin
or outer surface of the body, with the con-
sequent transterence Of the exCretion to the
mucous or inner surface. The deleterious
matter which ought to have been removed
by the skin, irritates the blood by its reten-
ton there, and ultimately expends itself by
the nose and throat. For example, if the
nervous system be feeble, sweating would
probably be induced, and consequent loss of
heat, irrespective of the needs of the body !;
in which case a cold would most probably
follow. As a fact, there are many people
with feeble nerves who readily perspire in
the coolest weather, and are iii consequence
liable to frequently recurring colds. The
nervous origin of colds also furnishes US
with clew to its treatment in the early
stages, The whole history of cold shows it
to be essentially and primarily state of col
lapse, demanding early recourse to a stimu-
lating plan of treatment There is no more
detected mortal than patient in the first
stage of cold, and both his physical and
mental condition point to nervous collapse
Hence we believe the great success of camphor
and ammonia inhalations in the early stage.
1t has also been repeatedly found that two or
three glasses of wine have cut a cold short,
when saken at the first appearance of the
symptoms Chambers journal.

against the proceedings of the Republican

this purpose "lhe voice of the re-

A writer Of humorous stories was stopping
at q summer hotel where he was admired by
two small boys who had read his tales. A
real live writer was evidently curiosity to
the youngsters. Finally, one of the boys
plucked up courage to speak to him.
Are you Mr.. -, who writes stories for
the -Y
The writer acknowledged his identity with
becoming modesty, and the boy, after a mo-
ment's reflection, continued his investiga-
tions: "How much do they pay you for one
Of those storiesi'
From $50 to $50" replied the writer,
kindly, and the youngster seemed buried in
thought Suddenly the question came like a
shot from gun:
"Well, wouldn't they pay you more if your
stories were not so foolshf1
The writer was too taken aback To answer,
but he has been thinking over the matter
ever since, and vainly trying to draw the line
between "humor" and. 'foolishness. "-Har-

tional Convention of Democratic Clubs.
IsHPEmING, Mich, Jan. %. After a two
days session the Republican convention for
the Eleventh Michigan district at 7;31
o'clock Thursday evening, on the ll7th bal
lot, nominated Henry W. Seymour OF Sault
Ste. Marie, who was state senator from his
district IN the last legislature
The result was attained by the transfer Of
the Marquette delegation to Seymour in the
evening session of the convention. The dele
cations from the copper district counties
voted for Hubbel without break from be-
ginning TO end. On the ninety-eghth ballot
HubJel had 80 and Brown 45-within of
the number necessary t. choice An adj
journment was Immediately forced by the
Hubbell and Adams men-46 to 4j against.
At the evening session eighteen more ballots
were taken without result. On the Nth
ballot the Marquette delegates went over in
body to Seymour. and he received IS votes,
more than necessary. The following is the
final ballot: Total vote, 81; Seymour, 49,

Hubbell died very bard. There is no doubt
but that he was exceedingly anxious to go
back to congress. He came up as a strong
candidate for the United States senate be-
fore the last Legislature, in which he was n

THE CARNEGIE LABOR TROUBLE.
Reduction of 10 Per Cent. Ia Wages

A Reduction of 10 Per Cent. Ia Wages
Wanted because of Poor business.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Jan. 81 The question of
wages among the blast furnace men at the
Edgar Thompson (Carnegie's) works at Brad
dock, aud the approaching conference be-
tween a committee, representing the blast
furnace, converting and rail-mill depart
ments, with Manager Jones' is exclt-
ing great interest in labor circles
The firm have presented yearly
agreement in which they ask a
reduction of 10 per cent The workmen are
determined to 1 esist any reduction, and will
object even if left to arbitration Employees
from all other furnaces in this vicinity have
petitionei the committee to hold out against
a reduction, believing that in event of their
submission but short time will elapse UNI
til wages at all furnaces will be re-
duced- At the E lgar Thompson works all
repairs are completed; the only obstacle IN
the way of starting up is the lack Of orders.
Orders aggregating %, 900 tons are on the
books, with prospects of getting twice that
amount otter resuming, but combined these
are insignificant for plant having an an
nual capacity for 1900 tons Probably
month will eapse before starting the rail
mill, and then only only on double instead Of
triple turn, as has been heretofore. There
has not been such drawback in the steel

"BiShop" Oberly's Confidence Restored.
Bishop" Oberly, the civil service commits
sioner, is one of the most entertaining talk
ers here, and tells some very funny stories.
Here is one of them, He says that many
years ago, when a young imam, he was elected
to the assembly in Illinois. He was fright
ened when the time came for him to go to
the capitol at Springfield, for he was con-
scious that he was not the possessor of IA pol
ished education. He feared that he would
be paled by the flashing of bright intellects
all around him. He took his seat on the first
day in fear and trembling but in five min
utes he was put perfectly at ease, and was
even made to think that, perhaps, lie might
be one Of those who would shine" This
was what wrought the great change in his
mind:
"Mr Speaker said one assemblyman,
"there are no ink in the inkstands"
Young Oberly was amazed. "Well," he
thought, sis this the kind of timber they
send here'
Up rose another assemblyman, since ia
nous the country over.
Mr.. Speaker" said he, there are ink, but
it are froze in the bottles"
That was all young Oberly needed to put
him perfectly at in the legislature

THE PROPOSED TARIFF BILL.
A Forecast of What 1t viii BE, Made
by Newspaper.


WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. 2T--The Star
says the Democrats of the ways and means
committee have almost completed their tariff
bill. "They have reached" it says, "a point
now where they are in perfect agreement
and the bill in a general form is completed.
There remains now little for them to do
beyond the manual labor OF getting the bill
in form, and some missionary work to
strengthen the bill They are advancing in
a way that Is more satisfactory than they
had hoped for. The missionary work to be
done is simply the yielding of little points
here and there, when they can thus gain
strength for the bill without making any
serious sacrifice. The bill as reported will
put wool on the free-list, but, by way
of compromise, make a material reduc-
tion in the tax on tobacco and fruit
brandies and a reduction of 20 per
cent on sugar. Salt, lumber, and other
such raw material will go on the free list
There will be a general revision and adjust
ment of the tariff schedule, and the admins
trative features of the bill will be practically
those formerly advanced by Hewitt At
every step they have consulted expediency
to a great extent, and have SO managed as to
gain strength in many directions. They
have perfect confidence that they will be
able to pass the bill almost as reported An
exception may be made as to the wool clause.
After fight they may compromise on this
by putting coarse woods only on the free list,
If they can gain some decided advantage by so
doing. They appear, however, to think that
they will not have to make any change in
the bill in this respect"

Counties, Bnt Not for Tipping.
Dies MoINEs Ia, Jan. T.-Both houses
held short sessions Thursday afternoon, Il
good many bills being introduced and re-
ferred. In the senate Schmidt introduced a
high-license bill, and an attempt was made
to rush Hutchison's registration bill. in view
of the March elections, but it bumped al ong
badly.
The feature Of the day was the introduc-
ton Of the Temperance alliance bill by Gus
ter. The bill proposes that the county board
of supervisors shall appoint agents, not ex-
ceeding four, nor two from the same town
ship. The district court grants permit to
such agents for one year to buy and sell
whisky, brandy, wine and alcohol for medic
inal purposes, pure alcohol for mechanical
and scientific purposes, and wine
for sacramento purposes. The per-
init to sell must be signed
by twenty five taxpayers and the wives Of
twenty-five taxpayers, and all the liquor
sold must be purchased by the auditor of the
county, who is to buy as much as he thinks
necessary in each case, the money to pay for
it being deposited by the applicant The
bill is very elaborate and penalties are pro-
vided for violation of the law. All the
liquor is to be stamped and the stamp can
celled at sale.
