Although taking cold is one of the common
dangers ger Of its neglect in n treating and It's uIti'

let it wear itself out or seemingly to-. In a very
large majority of cases, catching cold develops
in an attack of acute inflammation of some por-

of least resistance, and, further, as these attacks
recur with increased frequency ana gravity, we
find the morbid process Localities itself further

understood that this is due to an existing
chronic catarrhal inflammation of perhaps so
mild a type as to give rise to but very trivial
symptoms, or even passed unnoticed; but still
an existing catarrh, the result probably of a
neglected cold and the renewed attacks to which
the Individual becomes so liable, consists in the
lighting up of the old trouble.
AS each fresh attack subsidies, the chronic
trouble makes itself known by more decided
symptoms, fresh colds occur with greater FREE
quency and there is finally established a chronic

in the throat; hawking and splitting. pain over

u d They Exchange Wives?

New York Star: a stylishly dressed
young woman, who was accompanied by
a man, entered Justice Seyemour's
Office in Hoboken, one day last week,
and told n remarkable story. She said
that her maiden name was Bertha
Folden, and that she came from SPRING
field, Conn, two years ago and married
Edward Preston. They moved to Penn
sylvania, where her husband bought a
farm.
She said that her companion was
James Preston, her husbands brother.
who lived with them in Pennsylvania
for a time. The woman unblushingly
told the magistrate that she liked James
Preston better than her own husband,
and that the latter knew it. About six
months ago James married IA young
woman named Ida Welsh, much against
the wish of her brother.
James soon tired of his wife and came
back to his brothers house. The
woman said that James wanted her to
elope with him, but she refused. One
day her husband and James went out
cunning, aud when they returned they
were in n happy mood.
The woman said that her husband
told her that his brother James wanted
her, and that he, Edward, would take
James wife, IL the two women would
consent to the scheme. The two wo-
men were willing, but James wanted
81 200 to boot from his brother for his
wife.
The woman said her husband paid
the money and the exchange of wives
was made. She is going to live with
James, and Ida and Edward are living
together. They all lived in the same
house, and got along we'll until last
Monday, when 5000 vas stolen from
James room.
The woman said that Edward II Ida
disappeared about the same time that
the money was missed, and they were
believed TO have come to Hoboken. She
therefore wanted a warrant for the ar
rest of Edward on a charge OF grand
larceny.
While the woman was relating the
above story, her companion had little
or nothing to say. He merely endorsed
her statements.
Justice Seymour told the couple that
he could do nothing for them, and that
they were both liable to arrest in New
Jersey. The couple, or hearing this
got out Of the magistrates Office in
Short order, and when last seen were
making tracks for the ferry to come L

Hay Fever-Can 1t BE Cured.

Hay Fever is an affection characterized bv
periodical attacks of acute catarrh, complicated
sometimes with asthma, occurring us q result of
a special susceptibility on the part of certain in
dividuals to become Influenced by certain sub
stances, and when the irritating substances are
present in the atmosphere.
The attack usually begins with a sensation Of
itching in the ~nostrils, which soon becomes very
intense, and causes violent and prolonged sneez-
ing. A %nricking, burning sensation In the inner
corner If the eye, followed by profuse weeping.
Very soon the nose becomes stopped up. and
breathing through It practically impossible. A
watery discharge appears, which soon becomes
very p~rofuse. which is very irritating to the
nostrils and upper lip, and the patient makes
futile Efforts, by immoderate, use of the hand
kerchief to clear the nose of the cause OF irrita-
ton, and obstruction. Chilly sensations, RUG.
ing in the ears. loss of smell and taste, vio,ent
tching at the roof of the mouth, pain over the
bridge OF the nose, itching of the face, disorder
ed stomach and tlatulence sometimes accom-
paHy this stage OF the trouble. AS the affection
advances the eyes become iniiamed and asthma
appears to further increase the sufferings OF the
patient.
To persons suffering with these symptoms we
offer q speedy relief and permanent cure. Tho
disease must be treated scientifically, that Is
with a knowledge of its causes, and OF methods
for removing the cause. Makeshift treatment
by patent medicines and palliative remedies,
such rs cocaine may mask the disease for u
short time only to break out with increased in-
tenSity.

G LIVE STOCR.

CHICAGO, Sept. 15.-lSpecial Telegram to
THE BEE. I-CATTLE-Trade was dull and
prices weak from the opening to the close on
everything from top to bottom. There was
no exception; fat stock, cow stock, bull
stock, Texans and rangers all sold slow and
a shade lower, the general market closing
weak with a large number unsold. Last
night at the close the market showed a
higher range of values than a week ago on
western range cattle that were good enough
for export or to make the best grade Of
dressed beef for home consumption, and
lower prices on all that lacked in quality or
tat, or both. The decline is owing to liberal
receipts of medium Texans and those of poor
quality, and receipts of quite a number of
range cattle from sections where there has
been some drouth. There is quite a demand
for range cattle for export the past few
days, owing to the scarcity Of good corn fed
natives. Good range natives of 1900
lbs average and over will be sold
to exporters from now on, and we
expect to see prices go higher on very best
grades, while we see no reason for prices to
go lower on more common grades. Heavy
receipts any one day may cause a temporary
decline bnt the general market on rangers
is liabl to remain steady. A big run of
cattle is looked for next week from the west,
ana heaVy shipments are expected from the
territory IN the Mississippi valley affected by
the extraordinary drouth of the past the next
six weeks. The receipts included 1900
Texas and western cattle: choice to extra
beeves nominally S~5.S506.60; medium to
good, 1850 to 1900 lbs, Si.9O@5.15 IS; 100 to

She Saw a Horrible "Old Thing"


Savannah News: A Liberty street
ghost not many nights ago. Her de-
scription of the horrible ''old thing" to
a friend, is as follows:
"a scraping and tearing, as il some
thing was in my room trying to wake
the dead, aroused me-. | glanced toward
the door where the sound came from,
and there it l just screamed and
buried my head under the pillow. You
may laugh, but I'll just VOW it's the
truth. The ghost was long and tall and
was wrapped in a white sheet that per-
spired blood as if it were human.
l could actually see the big drops
standing out on it. 1t darted
about over the room like n butterfly,
and | could hear nothing but the
rustling OF its old gown and the flap
ping of its wings. Its big old teeth re-
sembled COW horns, and it bit and
snapped like a mad dog. Its eyes looked
exactly like balls Of fire, that burned
and hickered. ! couldn't speak, and l
just laid there with my head covered
up, smothering almost to death"
but you had your head uncovered
and was gazing the ghost in the face,
weren't you, TO describe it as you have?'
suggested a friend.
"Pshaw! l thought you knew that
people didn't have TO look at a ghost
with their eyes open. Why, they never
would see one. They see them with
their heads covered. up and their eye:
closed"

said he had lived with Mrs, Shaw

was afraid that he would tell Inc that | had had
1t too long and could do nothing for me. so | told
him | had had 1t about seven years, but that
made no difference, he commenced treating me
and gave me medicine to use at home and he
cured me entirely and was under his treatment
for two months and that time ne only saw me

As above stated. Mr.. Thornton resides about
