MINERAL POINT TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY, JULY 20, 1898.
TO Petition Congress.

The following resolutions were re-
Gently adopted by the Merchants
Association of Milwaukee:
Whereas, this country has often
suffered greatly by reason of hasty
and ill-advised financial legislation;
And Whereas, it is now suffering
from the effect Of the silver purchasing
clause of the Sherman Act, which, by
creating distrust as to the interchange
ability of our currency based on silver
with our currency based on gold, has
caused widespread alarm, and has al
most created a commercial panic;
therefore,
Resolved, that it is the sense Of the
business men of the City Of Milwau-
kee that our members in Congress be
urgently requested 10 do all in their
power, at the meeting of the special
session Of Congress to be held on the
9TH Of August next, to repeal uncon-
ditionally the silver purchasing clause
of the sherman Act, which we believe
to be a standing menace , the pros
pti Ivy VI Oul t-JuhLlJ dbN II obAh
clause of the Sherman Act be not re-
pealed we are fully convinced that the
manufacturing and commercial inter
ests of our country will suffer iTrepar-
able loss. Stability and confidence In
financial circles is already in chaotic
condition Asa result capital has been
Withdrawn from the business channels
to such an alarming extent as to near
" paralyze our commercial interests,
In view of this state Of affairs, we,
the merchants OF Milwaukee, appeal to
our representatives in Congress to act
promptly and unitedly by voting for
the repeal Of this measure.
The above resolutions meet my
hearty endorsement, and believing
that the citizens Of Mineral Point are
in full sympathy with them, a COM
mittee will circulate copy among the
business men for signatures.

Facts About Hay Fever.

other country; but the apparent
greater prevalence of the affection
in this country, as compared with
others, may in some measure be
/ probably due, says a writer on the
subject in Hygiene, to the attention
which has been directed to it by the
writings of DIR. Bostock and others.
From different published accounts,
it is evident that the disorder is not
at all uncommon in Germany, Bel
gium, France and Switzerland; and
cases have also been recorded of
hay fever occurring in Italy, Austria,
Russia, Denmark, and other Eu.
ropean countries. An analogous
affection, attributed to the odor of
the roses when in bloom, is by no
means uncommon in some parts of
the United States, where rose,trees
are cultivated in large numbers. 1t
IL known by the names Of rose-cold,
rose-catarrh, rose-feyer. 1t has also
been observed in England. The
sense of smell, like the other facul.
ties, is liable to undergo modification
or intensifcation $50 to speak, at
times. Every one is aware how
painfully acute the senses, especially
those of hearing and seeing, become
during exhausting illness and in
certain nervous conditions, and the
faculty Of smelling is singularly
subject to variation, both in disease
and health. Numerous well-authen-
ticated cases have been recorded of
individuals, evidently in the enjoy.
ment Of good health, who have been
suddenly affected by the smell of
some flower or animal. Some per.
sons can not bear the scent Cf
particular flowers, such as, for in.
stance, roses and geraniums; and an
anecdote is told of a distinguished
general who, although he had gone
through many campaigns with great
bravery, always turned pale and
tainted at the smell of roses sudden
ly held before him. Others, again,
are visibly disturbed and annoyed
by the smell of different animals.
DIR. Carpenter relates, in his "Prin-
ciples of Human Physiology" the
case Of q blind gentleman who
could always tell by his sense Of
smell whenever a cat came into the
room. Hay fever is more frequently
observed in rural districts than in
towns, aud in the suburbs than in
the central parts Of large cities; aud
il is also more common in localities
where grass is chiefly grown than
those in which wheat crops are priu.

situated near the coast. Al.

In front of State street dry goods store
one day last week a well dressed man pa.
tlently stood waiting for his wife, who was
only to be gone two minutes" Outside
the store hung various articles useful and
otherwise. To casual observer they looked
most of them-vcry otherwise. just then
II red faced woman flew up from the base
ment, and grabbing the patient, tired man
by the arm said II want that wan up
there. The man in the bascmint sez ye'd
get 1T fer me, fer there amt no more down
there" And she pointed to IL shovel of the
small iron variety hanging near the second
story window marked SO cents"
Madam, | do not climb up to that Win
dow excepting every other day. This is the
day do not climb. If you want it very
much, you might climb upand get it your
self"
She turned wrathful pair of red eyes on
him and said, "I'll be afther reporting yez
fer yer Impotence" and she departed into
the beloved basement again in Il state of
great excitement.
As she was leaving another customer,
overwhelming the woman, thought the stran-
ger an employee of the store and said Say,
mister, where do you keep your pantss"
II keep 'cm on my suspenders. Where do
you keep yours?" he snapped and glowercd
SO on the man that he also departed in
haste.
Then the tired, waiting man, no longer
patient, turned and stood on the outer edge
of the sidewalk Mt n respectable distance
from the crowd When his wife came out,
he said, "Hercaftcr, madam, when I am
imbecile enough to consent to go shopping
