A Sailed Undershirt for the Grin.

Five years ago was suffering with a
very severe throat trouble, so much so
that | did not expect to live. An ac-
Quaintance told me that he could give me
a remedy that would cure it and, as
had tried all Of the doctors in my town
without receiving any benefit, l decided
to try the remedy suggested. l tried it,
was permanently cured Of my cough,
and besides | discovered that was not
subject to colds.
l served a palace car company for two
years in that time. was conductor
running in the states of Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Flor
ida, Tennessee and Alabama. | was Of
course subjected to very hot cars in win
ter, and of necessity had constantly to
get out in the cold at all hours of the
night. In all that time l have never
had cold or the grip.
You will be astonished at the remedy.
1t is simply to wear sailed undershirt.
Take a summer undershirt and soak it
in brine made with, say, a half pint of
ordinary salt to about quart of water
and put out to dry. Wear this shirt
next to the body. 1t is not unpleasant
to wear and will, am sure, keep off
grip and bad colds, and, l firmly be-
heve, consumption. If l were to live to
be eighty years old, have so much faith
in the sailed shirts that l would never
cease to wear them. My reason for pre-
ferring the thin gauze shirt is because
the salt makes heavy shirt too stiff
and hard. Wear the heavy shirt over
the sailed Enirt.-Cor. New York Times.

New York is a great city. During the

spicuous characters in the piece, which

about as large as fve-year-old baby,

same evening | saw something in the
two little boys who bring my family
laundry to remind me of the small page
and the princes footman.
On inquiry found they were the
same. The small page has been on the
stage three or four years and is, in his
way, an old timer at nine years. He
named over his repertory as he played
on the floor with the baby with the air
of one who had pretty much exhausted
the theatrical gamut. These two bright
little fellows live with my laundress.

Duration of Life Among Birds.

The distinguished German biologist,
Weisman, has pointed out that there
less exact knowledge on the subject
duration of life among birds than might
be expected, considering how many in
number are the ornithologists and the
pathological societies. Small singing
birds live from eight to eighteen years
Ravens have lived for almost 100 years
in captivity, and parrots longer than
that. Fowls live ten to twenty years
(and are then sold as spring chickens to
young housekeepers).
The wild goose lives upward Of 100
years, and swans are said to have at
tanned the age of 800. The long life of
birds has been interpreted as compensa-
ton for their feeble fertility, and for the
great mortality Of their young.
Obviously, as Weisman observes, such
birds must reach a great age, or they
would long ago have been exterminated.

The most serious complication Of the
rip is acute bronchitis. This may ap
fear early or late. The breathing be
tones rapid and difficult A spasmodic
cough is almost constant. The expec-
torations are glairy and tenacious
With all this there is peculiar prostra-
ton.
A more common complication is pneu.
monia, of which there are three varie
ties-croupous, congestive and bronchC
pneumonia. Although these complica-
lions are dangerous, yet recovery is the
rule under prompt and careful treat
ment.
A third complication of the grip is
connected with the heart. If patients
sit up they become faint. Some die OF
simple failure of the heart; others are
saved from death only by careful alter.
ton on the part of the nurse. After the
grip has passed off, a tendency to faint
ness and neuralgia pains may remain for
weeks or months.
Another complication shows itself in
a diarrhea; still another affects the
nervous system and is characterized by
pains in the head or elsewhere, or by
weakness in certain parts of the body,
such as the hands or arms.
AS to treatment, the doctor must de-
eide in view of all the symptoms. But
the patient should in every case take to
his bed. To keep about is exceedingly
dangerous, especially as exposing the pa
tient to the above complications.-Lo

best Sea island cotton is used. This is
taken in the raw state and torn to pieces
by a machine called a breaker. 1t is
then freed from its impurities by several
other machines, after which it is taken
up by :'slipper" and twisted into soft
yarn. Several strands of this are twist
ed into one fine thread; three of these
are then twisted sogether, making the
six-cord thread, which, after being
bleached, is ready to sell.-Philadelphia

THE NIGHT RIDE.
ronight we rode beneath a moon

Tonight we rode beneath moon
That made the moorland pale.
And our horses feet kept well thS tune,
And our pulses did not fail.
The moon shone clear: the boar frost feiA,
The world slept, as il seemed;
Sleep held the night. but we rode well,
And as we rode we dreamed.
We dreamed of ghostly horse and hound,
The fight at dead of night;
The more the fearful thoughts we found,
The more was our delight.
And when we heard the white owl fly
And boot with mournful tone,
We tho;sht TO see dead men go by,
And pressed our horses on.
The merrier then our riding song
Upon the homeward road.
Oh, whether the way be short or long
Is all in the riders mood
And still our pulses kept the tale,
Our gailop kept the tune,
AS round and over hill and vale
We rode beneath the moon.
