1t is not usually supposed that any ex.
ercise of the will power can be made
efficient in checking cough or sneeze
but DR., Brown-Sequard, in one of hi.
lectures, says of tho subject: Coughing
can BIO stopped by pressing on the nerve,
Of the lips in the neighborhood of the
nose. Sneezing may be stopped by the
same mechanism. Pressing in tbs
neighborhood Of the ear, right in front
of the ear, may step coughing. It Is SO
also, of hiccoughing, but much less SC
than for sneezing or coughing. PRESSING
very hard on the top Of the mouth is alst
a means of stopping coughing, and many
say the will has immense power.
There are many other affections asso.
ciated with breathing which can b,
stopped by the same mechanism that
stops the hearts action. In spasm Of the
glottis, which is a terrible thing in chill
dren, and also In whooping cough, it !!
possible to afford relief by throwing COLI
water on the feet, or by tickling the sole,
of the feet, which produces laughter, an,
at the same time goes to the matter tina
is producing the spasm and arrests it al
most at once,
would not say that we can always pre-
vent coughing by our will but In man.
instances these things are possible, AM
if you remember that in bronchitis anC
pneumonia, or any acute affection Of tn
lungs, hacking or coughing greatly in
creases the trouble at times, you ca
easily sec how important it is for tn
patient to try toayoid coughing as best b

THE business men of Norfolk have
filed complaint with the state board
of transportation through Charles FL.
johnson, alleging that Norfolk is dis
eliminated against in every direction
north, south, east and west. The COM
plant quotes rates local between Sioux
City and South Sioux City as in force by
the Chicago g. Northwestern to prove
this. The complaint goes on to say that
when the board of transportation held
a meeting at Norfolk a petition was
handed in purporting to represent the
business interests of the city, claiming
that the merchants were satisfied, but
as many of the said merchants handled
a class of goods which do not come I'M
der the high classification they had no
complaints to make. Being satisfied
that those who do handle the higher
class of goods are most unjustly dis
eliminated against, the merchants who
sign this complaint request the board to
take up the matter of interstate rates and
prosecute the case for them before the
Interstate commerce commission OF the
United States. They also ask that the
local rates between Sioux City and Nor
folk be put on an equality with the
Grand Island rates and that Norfolk be
put on an equality with other towns in
Nebraska ON the Chicago & Northwest
ern system equally distant from Chicago.
