Catching and Curing a Cold.

boston GlODe.
Generally we are caught by the ''cold" in
coming out of heated ballroom, theatre, or
concert hall. The blood that circulates near
the surface of the body flows in increased guam
tity on account of active exercise of the body or
high temperature of the hail. In consequence
of this increased quantity of the blood the
nerves are irritated, the cells pour out moisture
on to the surface, and we 'perspire'' freely.
Now, if any portion of the surface of our body
is exposed to gust of ''cold" wind, that is air
of lower temperature than the skin sudden
check will be given to the radiation of heat at
the surface, and local Inflammation results.
The walls of the bronchial tubes and the cells
of the lungs are lined with a membrane. This
membrane is constantly moist, as it is in the
cavity of the nose. AS result of irritation,
this membrane eXudes more mucus than usual.
The mucus fills the cells and bronchial tubes,
and the nerves are irritated by its presence. A
sort of spasm or convulsive action at once takes
place, in order to get rid of the accumulation OF
mucus. This action is called "coughing."
The first important thing to do at the first
sign of cold is to rest Give the muscular and
nervous system complete rest. The next step is
to reduce the increased circulation of the blood
at the affected part. This can be accomplished
in several ways If you have tincture of aconite
in the house, it is one of the best internal reme-
dies. Place ten drops of the tincture of aconite
in cup or tumbler and add twelve teaspoonfuls
of water to it. This aconte must be dropped
accurately, and the water measured accurately.
1t is not safe to take into the system more than
three drops of aconite at one dose. AS dose
of the medicine prepared as here stated take
one teaspoonfu every hour. Aconite reduces
the rapidity of the circulation of the blood and
blunts the activity of the nerves.

THEIR ARDoR DAMPENED.
GIistening Bayonets of the Militia Pre-
vent Disturbance.


vent Disturbance.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Dec. 20.-A special to
the Evening Wisconsin from Wausau says the
great raid ON the land office to file claims on
land in the great reservoir strip began at 9
O'Clock this morning, and thus far the filing has
proceeded without disturbance. At an early
hour this morning Mayor Mueller directed
Capt Bells, of the Wausau Light Guard, to
march his company to the courthouse square
to preserve order, and forty-fve blue-coats,
with glistening bayonets took up station
close to the land Office The arrival of the
militia put an effective damper on the ardor of
the homesteaders who could not get in line.
and everything was peace and quiet when Reg
lister Saunders slid back the wicket for the first
filing.
WAUsAU, WIS, Dec. 20.-When the United
States Land Office was opened at O'Clock this
morning the courthouse square was crowded
with people, but the local militia company,
drawn up before the land Office with fixed baYo-
nets, protected the men in line in their right.
The crowd feared the bayonets and no organ
lied attempt was made, as had been expected,
to force an entrance and crowd out the men
who had been camped out in line for two days
or more. The making of entries pro-
gressed rapidly all day and at
O'Clock this afternoon, when the Office was
closed, eightyfve had been made. There was
still remnant of the original lines, and those
holding the places expressed their determi-
nation to wait till O'Clock Monday morning,
when the Office will be opened for business
again. All the claims of any particular value
have already been entered. People are here
from Nebraska, and even more distant
States led by false stories of the fabulous value
of the water-reserve lands restored to the public
domain. The MALTA patrolled the square last
night to keep order. and no trouble is now an
ticipated here. When attempts are made to
dispossess squatters from some of the claims
there may be shooting

Assaulted With a Brick.

Last night Mr. j. w. Walthall, of the Railway
Mail Service, went into a restaurant on Penn
sylvana avenue, near Sixth street. to get his
supper. While in the place Edward Collins, a
carpet man, became involved in a dispute with
him, Walthall charging Collins with the
larceny of small sum of money Collins de-
MED the accusation and left the place, vowing
vengeance against Walthall. After eating his
meal Walthall started out and had
reached the front door when Collins
approached him, crying 'Defend your
self" and Immediately struck Wathall in the
head with brick. Walthall was felled by the
blow, and in the excitement Collins made his
escape and has not yet been arrested. The in
1ured man was carried to the Emergency Hos
pital, where his head was bandaged The cut
was of a very ugly nature, being just over the
right temple. He was removed to his home.

GOLD BARS FOR GOLD COIN.
A Measure to Retard Expectation of Gold
to FOREIGN Countries.

A Measure to Retard Expectation of Gold
to Foreign Countries.
Representative Carter, of Montana, from the
Committee on Coinage, Weights and Measures,
yesterday reported to the House the bill agreed
upon by the committee to amend the Act of
May 26, 1882, authorizing the receipt of United
States gold coin in exchange for gold bars so as
to make the exchange of gold bars for gold coin
discretionary with the Secretary of the Treas
ury instead of mandatory, as the present stat
ute has been construed to be, and also gives au-
thority to impose a charge for such exchange
equal to the cost of manufacturing the bars.
This measure has been strongly recon-
mended by the Director of the Mint
and by the Secretary of the Treas
ury. The committee says it is believed
that the movement of gold from this country
during recent years has been facilitated by the
readiness with which gold bars of approved
weight and fneness could be obtained from the
United States Assay Office, in New York. The
law of 1882 was enacted for the purpose of pre-
venting the expectation and melting down of
our own coin, but recent monetary events have
shown that while it may have prevented the
melting Of our gold coin, it has facilitated the
expectation of gold.
The shipment of gold, rather than the pur-
chase of exchange. is, as rule, decided on a
very narrow margin of profit, and the decision
is Influenced largely by the facility with which
gold can be obtained in New York City, and the
net results of such shipment on the other side
of the water.

Made Dearer by Adulteration.

INUW
Since the passage of the Mckinley bill there
has been a slight increase of price upon almost
everything buy When | ask why this is the
invariable answer is, ''The Mckinley bill, you
know" Often happen to know that the par
ticular thing l am buying has been entirely un-
affected by the bill, and when | say SO | am
simply Informed that, of course, as everything
else has gone up this must go up in proportion" "
The climax was attained the other day when
friend of mine went to purchase a certain COM
modify which was priced higher than has been
its won't ''The Mckinley bill'' was blamed for
the increase, as usual. "But this article is on
the free list" protested my friend. YES was
the ready answer, sit is, but the material with
which it is adulterated has to pay 25 per cent.

Nicotine Is CoIorIess.

Pittsburg Dispatch
sit isn't good plan to smoke a cigar too
close to the mouth, +" remarked DR.. Orr. "When
the cigar becomes very short the smoker draws
into the mouth larger quantities of the deleteri-
Gus matter than he would if it was longer "Did
you ever blow tobacco smoke through hand
kerehief and notice the yellow deposit remain
ing?" And the Doctor suited the action to
word, showing quite patch of yellow on the
silk tissue. "People imagine" the Doctor con-
tinued, ''that the yellow substance you see is
nicotine, but that is mistake. Nicotine is a
coloress liquid, and it would take great many
mouthfuls of smoke blown through handker-
chief to produce deposit sufficient from which
a drop of this deadly poison could be obtained -

Thackeray recognized these two vices of ours

WAR on THE TRUSTS.

The intelligent aud disinterested
people Of this country, without re-
gard to political affiliations, are en-.
gagged in making war on all kinds
of trusts Oil trusts, sugar trusts,
insurance trusts--and trusts of every
description must go. They are
organized trade consplracles to rob
the producer and the consumer, and
take profit upon fictitious capital in
addition to all other legitimate
charges and percentages and mar
gins allowable in Legitimate trade.
The standard oil trust and the lum-
Der trust are fair samples Of the way
these piratical combinations stand
like n rnbhor of the middle ages over
some great industry, and, while
they depress the price to the pro-
ducer of the raw material, they ad-
vance the price to the consumer.
They swing two-edged sword that
cats slice both ways aud cuts deep
into the pockets of every man who
has to buy the necessaries of life.
Insurance and money-loaning trusts
multiply the legal technicalilies 10y
which they enmesh their unfortu-
nate victim with all the inventions
and devices of horde of high
priced lawyers. On the other
hand they make their contracts
read so that every avenue Of escape
lies open TO them to take advantage
of.

sanctions such levy on the pockets
