Starving a Cold.

The man who originated the often.
quoted and unscientfic maxim, Feed
a cold and starve a fever" either did
not understand what he was writing
about, or he has been widely misun-
derstood, to the great injury of multi
tudes who have acted on the absurd
maxim. Presuming the author to
have been a physician, who knew
something of the nature of a cold and
the action of remedies, he must have
spoken subjectively, and not i'm
peratively. And then it would read
thus: If you stuff a cold, the conse-
quence will be that you will be thrown
into fever, as a result of the stuffing
treatment of the cold, and then you
will have to starve the fever. This
is true and sensible Interpretation
of this commonly received maxim,
which has done as much harm as any
of the thousand and one popular er-
rors which prevail on medical sub
jects.
If it cannot be explained in the
manner mentioned, it must be re.
manded to the dark ages of ignorance
and superstition, and classed with
lunar and stellar influences over the
human body, Witchcraft and other
absurdities long since exploded in the
progress OF true science. Without
dwelling on the nature and causes OF
colds, or on what physicians call the
pathology of these disorders, / will
say that low or even starvation diet
for few days, with the free drinking
Of warm, mildly stimulating teas, is
better for a cold than any drug OF
combination Of drugs. Ifwith this a
warm bath or a hot fOot-bath be
taken, little more will be needed
Nine cases in ten colds can be broken
up in their early stage by hot foot
or rather leg bath, keeping the bath
as hot as it can be borne until perspir
alton. After the bath, drink a hal
pint of hot lemonade and go to bed

Street-Cars in the City OF Mexico.

"No doubt New York City is the
banner city for street-railway stock
holders" said an Englishman who
had just completed the tour of Amer
lea to the writer recently, "but in
proportion to their number and
wealth the people of the City of Mex
leo contribute more to their horse
cars than any other that / have seen.
Nobody seems to walk there who can
scrape together enough to ride. Mules
are the motive power, and these thin
beasts gallop along at reckless pace,
under constant lashing from the
driver. They run first, second and
third class cars, which vary in price
from a real (about twelve cents down
to two cents. The first-class coaches
are about as comfortable as the
Broadway cars here. Second-class
cars have small windows near the
roof, without glass, bench running
lengthwise along either wall, and
and another without a back, down
the center. Third-cIass cars carry
freight and Indians Unfortunately.
One road, which extends far out of
the city to the principal cemetery,
runs funeral cars draped in mourning,
and does q big business in funerals.
AS all the lines meet at the principal
square of the city, the mourning
coaches can be switched off to any
part of the town. The coffin is car
ried by the pall-bearers to the nearest
car track, and deposited in the
hearse-coach, with the chief mourn
ers; other cars are filled with friends
of the family, and away they go in
procession down to the city square,
are there switched on the cemetery
line, and run on a side track at the
graveyard, where the cars wait for
them till the burial is completed. l
saw funeral train while l was there
of twenty cars, overlooking at beth
ends with mourners of the dead

81 have been using Swift's Specific
with the children of the orphans
home under my charge with the best
results. l began its use between nine
and ten years ago, and I have seen
many remarkable results.
Quite number of the children had
constitutional blood diseases resulting
from the sins of the parents and
every one of these children were cur
ed of the horrible faint by the use of
S. S. S.
There have also been scores of chill
dren in the institution whose systems
(they having been mostly without the
benefits of parental care) were ener-
waited by dirt eating and other foul
practices. Every one of these chill
dren have taken S. S. S., and all
have been signally benefited by it.
All have been cured who have taken
enough of it. We have also two
inmates of the home, subject to pain
full recurring attacks of erysipelas.
Neither one improved under the
treatment usual for the disease.
When all other medicines were dis
carded and they took S. S. S. the cure
in each case was quick and perma-
nent, for they have been well for five
years and there has been no return of
the disease. could tell much Of the

A PUBLIC BENEFACToR.

"Who is II. II. Warner, of Ro.
chester, N. Y, whose Safe Remedies,
especially Warmers Safe Cure, have
attained such success and celebrity ut
home and abroad?"
The question is inspired as much
by affection as curiosity, since through
his instrumentality hundreds of thou
sands, in both hemispheres, have
been restored tohealth and happiness.
Hon. ii. II. Warner, then, is a
leading and honored resident of Ro-
chester, not only, but prominent
and influential citizen of the United
States. On several occasions chosen
by his party as a National delegate
to nominate a President of the Re-
public, he has been a member of the
Republican State Committee and of
its Executive Committee. He is an
member of the American Institution
for the Advancement of Science |;
President of the Rochester Chamber
of Commerce; successful and up
right business man. He has given
away fortunes in charities. The cele-
brated and costly Warner Observa-
tory of Rochester was conceived,
endowed, and is maintained by him.
His muniticent prizes for the dis
covery of comets have been at once
the wonder and delight of the
scientific world.
The yellow fever scourge in the
South, the Ohio floods, the fire disas-
tiers of Rochester and other cities
awakened his profoundest sympa-
thics and in each instance his check
for from $500 to $1,000 swelled the
several relief funds. Where other
wealthy men give tens and hundreds,
he gives hundreds and thousands.
His charities are as ready and
magnificent as his enterprises and
public spirit are boundless.
The world has need of more such
men.
An incident led him into the manu-
facture of medicine. Seized some
twelve years ago with what the
ablest physicians termed fatal kid
ney disease, he was miraculOuSly
restored to health by what is now
known as Warmers Safe Cure. At
once he resolved to make known the
merits of so potent a remedy, and
the consequence is that today he has
immense laboratories and ware
houses in the United States, Canada,
England, Germany, Austria, Aus
tralia and Burmah. Sales of his
Safe Remedies are enormous, and
their power over disease simply
marvellous.
The merit of a production is in
exact keeping with the character OF
its producer. An honest and reliable
man himself, Mr.. Warner makes
honest and reliable medicines
fact abundantly attested by then
phenomenal efficacy and popularity

-Over-feeding is the common bane
of the pig, according to the American
Agriculturist which advises q pint of
milk and two ounces of boiled cornmeal
mixed as daily ration for the first
week, and a gradual increase may be
made, substituting raw cornmeal.
Every farmer should have plenty
of grapes. Wherever there is side
of building or fence to which vine
can be trained, plant vine. Dwellers
in towns and villages, who can find
room for the roots of vine, should
plant one; place to train the vine can
easily be found. Newly planted vines
should bear but one shoot; rub out all
others. AS soon as bearing vines show
clusters of buds, pinch off the end of
the shoot ut the second or third leaf
beyond the uppermost cluster.
"A correspondent OF the Massa-
chusetts P.oughman says: II once saw
a row of currant bushes some ten rods
long, where one-half the row was COM
pletely bare of leaves, while the other
half was in full foliage. Where the
leaves were the ground was sowed with
coal ashes and there were no worms on
the bushes. Where there were no
ashes there were no leaves on the
bushes. The use of ashes is a cheap
way to secure a crop Of currants."
