1t is often the case that people do not
realize the full significance of the fiyors
they ask of others until they are them
selves called upon to make similar sac
rifice. This is well illustrated by an in
cident in connection with the efforts be-
ing made to secure lower rates on the
railroads for visitors to the World s
Fair. Mr.. Potter Palmer and Mr.. Far
well of Chicago called on President Rob-
erts of the Pennsylvania railroad, and in
formed him that they thought his road
ought to greatly reduce the passenger
rates. Now Mr.. Palmer is a millionaire
who owns and runs big hotel in Chica-
go, and Mr.. Farwell is also a millionaire,
who has one of the biggest dry goods
stores in the same city. Mr.. Roberts
Immediately inquired Of these men If
they proposed to reduce the prices of ho-
tel accommodation and dry goods to
their customers during the time OF the
fair. The Chicago men were taken all
aback by this query. and after they had
caught their breath, they admitted that
they had no intention of cutting down
the prices of the things which they had
to sell; in fact they didn't see how they
could do it and make any money, Mr..
Roberts i-formed his visitors that the
Pennsylvania railroad is expanding and
will expcnd, several millions of dollars
in making improvements ald arrange
ments to accommodate the travel to Chi
cagO for the benefit of the fair and of
that city. and that operating great rail
road is rather an expensive business, and
that it ought not to be expected that this
road would carry passengers at rates
that would not pay.
What Chicago's representatives said in
reply to this convincing argument is not
stated, but new light undoubtedly
dawned upon them. 1t is not imprOba-
bic that the Pennsylvania railroad could
afford to make at least a slight reduction
in its rates for this special occasion, and
competition will undoubtedly force it to
do so, but why should not the same ar
guments apply to the Chicago hotels and
boarding houses, not to mention the
stores, as to the railroads? The course
pursued by the two classes of institu-
tons, however will be directly opposite.
The railroads will lower their rates, as
they almost always do, especially in Yer
mont, for an attraction which will draw
a large attendance, whereas the hotels
and boarding houses are pretty sure ia
keep their rates well up. even if they dc
not make an advance. 1t is evident that
what is sauce for the hotels is not sauce
for the railroads, and President Roberts
ought to start the reform right in Chica
go.-Free Press.

COLDS.

Contrary to the prevalent opinion that
colds and coughs are due entirely to the
severity of the climate or to some uneX-
pected change in the weather, they really
arise, in very many cases, from pure
carelessness and want of thought.
Colds are not inevitable, but could
often be avoided if people would only
use their ideas of common sense and be
reasonable.
The custom of muffling the neck very
closely with furs or similar protection is
extremely dangerous. If thoughtlessly
left OF, severe cold is sure. A light
wrapping, sufficient to exclude cold wind,
while permitting ventilation, gives the
best protection.
For instance, if one sits in a heated
room while paying visit, or during the
services at church, without removing
any of she many wraps which have been
donned for the cold atmosphere out of
doors, the result is almost sure to he a
severe cold, contracted by the sudden
change from the heated room to the cold
air.
Sleeping in badly ventilated rooms,
wearing at night the Undertaking which
is worn through the day. late hours, loss
of sleep, greasy food and iregularity of
meals, all tend to weaken the system to
such an extent as to render it quite inca
pable of resisting the changes i'll the
the weather OF any exposure to disease.
While we all advocate cold and well ven
tilated sleeping apartments, we, at the
same time, must condemn the cold room
for dressing in in the morning. 1t is
most unhealthy, and delicate person
might receive such shock as to result
in fatal injury.
When at all possible one should have
warm dressing room close at hand, but
if the home is not so luxurious, the fam
lily sitting room could be utilized for this
purpose, only very short time being re-
quired by each person. A dressing gown
and a pair of warm bedroom slippers
should be put on as quickly as possible,
and the clothes could be carried to the
sitting room, where half the toilet could
be performed in n very few minutes.
La Grippe has made such terrible ray
ages amongst us that the smile that once
arose when reference was made to it has
now changed into grave and very seri-
Gus expression. The family drug store
should be kept well stocked, for it may
contain something which shall prove to
be invaluable in relieving the sufferer
before the doctor could be summoned
Four grains Of quinine taken every three
hours until the temperature is normal,
should speedily ailay the fever. a mus
tard plaster or linseed poultice will be
found to be very soothing when there is
much pain, while a hot water bottle will
soon send the blood flowing properly
through the body.
The trouble with many people is that
they never think of taking care of them
selves until the malady is an established
fact.-GOOd housekeeping.

A VALUABLE GIFT.

Probably no physician of our day has
gained such a reputation for curing
cases of lingering or long standing dis
eases through the treatment by mail as
the great Specialist in nervous and
chronic diseases, DR.. Greene of 81 Tenn
pie Pl., Boston, Mass, discoverer of the
well known DR.. Greene's Neryura blood
and nerve remedy. He uses in his prac-
tice only harmless vegetable remedies,
and has given special attention to treat
ment of patients at a distance through
letter correspondence. Consultation in
this manner or personally is entirely
free Of charge. Any sufferer from what
ever kind of disease has the priyalege of
writing TO him description of his or
her case, and he will return a carefully
considered answer fully explaining your
disease and giving you a perfect under
standing of all its symptoms, free of
charge.
His success is something wonderful in
restoring the sick to health, and his
practice is without doubt the largest in
this country. Send for his symptom
blank and write him, sufferer, for his adj
vice in your case. This will cost you
nothing, and may lead to your cure.
