COMMERCIAL CRISIS.
Despatch From Costa Rica Says One is
Impending,

Impending,
COSTA RIGA, Feb. 29-The events of
the past few weeks portend serious
economic crisis. The government appears
so much impressed with the gravity of
the situation that it has suspended for the
present efforts to secure loans. The cof--
fee crop is but two thirds the amount of
the previous years harvest and the price
is stationary at IS per quintal. There is
much anxiety in commercial circles and
it is feared that several houses will fail.

| want to give you two or three rules.
One is
Always look at the person you speak to-
When you are addressed, look straight at
the person who speaks to you. Do not
forget this.
Another is
Speak you words plainly. Do not NUT
ter nor humble. If words are worth say
ing, they are worth pronouncing distinct
ly and clearly.
A third is
Do not say disagreeable things. If you
have nothing pleasant to say. keep silent.
A fourth IS and o children remember it
all your lives
Think three timer before you speak
once!
Have you something to do that you find
hard and would prefer not to? Then listen
to wise old grandmother. Do the hard
things first and get it over with. If you
have done wrong, 60 and confess it. If
your lesson is tough, master it. If the gar
den is 10 be weeded, weed it first and play
afterward. Do the thing you dom like to
do first, and then with g clear conscience,
try the rest.

A correspondent of the New York Times
writes that he has used common salt with
great success as a remedy in cases of sum-
mer complaint and cholera morbus. HIS
plan Is to add q teaspoonful of raw corn
starch and teaspoonful of salt TO tum-
bier of water and use much and as often
as is possible without producing nausea
His OK PLANTATION of thu discovery is inter-
esting. He says it came from noticing in q
scientific paper that examination of the
bodies of those who had died of cholera
yellow fever OF typhoid fever, showed q
lack of chlorides in the blood. His infer
ence was that the lack of chloridcs made it
easy for these diseases to get possession.
He also considered tho fact that cholera is
moro common IN warm weather. that per-
spiration. incident to warm weather. re-
moves salt from the system, and that an
artificial supply OF chl0rides in the form of
common salt. chloride of sodium. was nat
urally Indicated a. q preventive and cure.
As To experience h- says he has tried hIe
remedy in more than n hundred cases with
tnyariable prompt success"

Broad Tires.
Broa
Pfffshrr0 Post
Pittsburg Post
All those who have made study of road

All those who have made study of road
that the broad-tired wagon IS one of the
essentials of the cheap maintenance of q
good track. The very broad tire acts as
roller and when the water Is kept Oft the
roadway travel improves instead of iDjur-
ing 1t. The narrow tire cuts little ditch
on the top OF side of the road and parallel
to the center of 1t. and this ditch or rut
holds the water on the bed until it soaks
down and softeDs the whole or else Is evaD-
Grated by the heat. If it were not for
these rnts the water would pass away and
the bed would always be hard and good
The broad tire cannot cut deep into the
road he'd. IL is n step in the right direction.
If with the abandonment of the narrow
tire could come cessation of the practice
by everyone of following fixed track
along the road the improvement would be
marvellous. The common tire so cuts the
ground that the horses must take beaten
paths but with quito broad tires
and shallow, . IL. any ruts, the
road would soon be made so smooth
and hard that with q little care
OH the part of the drivers no liked track
would be made. and the water after rains
would flow OFF without difficulty. The
trouble Is that the people have the narrow
tires and q change ia expensive. Those
buying q new WAGON do not prefer a wide
tire while others use the narrow, as tho
former does no better than the latter on q
road full OF ruts. IL a general change from
the road question would be half solved.

DAILY JOURNAL
A WEEK


No other method of securing Repub-
Iican victory at the polls is so certain as
the circulation of Republican papers
among voters. Since the reduction in
the price thousands of subscriptions
have poured in from all parts OF the
State. showing that a need was supplied.

go into their hands at once, and not next
spring or summer. Clubs are being
formed and agencies established wher-
ever daily mails reach, and as rapidly
as travelling agents can visit the places,
but Republicans in each and every lo-
cality cannot DO their party greater
service than to interest themselves Ia
circulating the Journal.
