COLD WEATHER RULES.

COLD WEATHER RULES.
Selected.
Never lean With the back up
on anything that is cold.
Never begin a journey until
the breakfast has been eaten.
Never take warm drinks and
them Immediately go out into
the cold.
Keep the back, especially be-
tween the shoulder blades, well
covered; also the chest well pro-
tected.
In sleeping in q cold room
establish q habit Of breathing
through the nose and never
with the mouth open.
Never go to bed with cold or
damp feet. Never omit regular
bathing, for, unless the skin is
in active condition, the cold
will close the pores and favor
congestion and other diseases.
After exercise of any kind
never ride in an open carriage
or near the window Of a car for
a moment. 1t is dangerous to
health or even life.
When hoarse speak as little
as possible until the hoarseness
is recovered from, else the voice
may be permanently lost or
difficulties Of the throat be pro-
duced.
Merely warm the back by the
fire, and never continue keeping
the back exposed to the heat
after it has become comfortably
warm. To do otherwise is de-
bilitating.
When going from a warm at
mosphere into a cooler one keep
the mouth closed, so that the
hair may be warmed in its pas
sage through the nose before it
reaches the lungs.
Never stand still in cold
weather specially after having
taken a slight degree of eXerci-
Sc, and always avoid standing
on ice or snow, or where the
person is exposed to cold wind.

The Democratic revival.

Republican Encouragement of 6nap-
ces and taxation has done its worst.
The depleted treasury is in shape to
stand any attack upon it. Business is
reviving steadily. The prices OF farm
products are again reaching a level OF
profitable returns Wages had fallen
under the Mckinley tariff and the re-
publican tampering with the public
credit, which was behind the public
currency. Wages are now improving
in manufacturing industries and bet
ter trade laws are encouraging the ex-
port sale of our manufactured prod
ucts The prospect is that we shall
soon be selling abroad unprecedented
quantities of such goods and will be in
possession of foreign markets which
will give steady demand. The danger
Gus overproduction of goods made for
limited home market will not recur
so frequently. Labor will have contin-
uous employment. Republican reck-
lessness was a terror, but we have out
lived its worst.-St Louis Republic.

The Wilson Bill and IT'S Effects Upon
American Industries.

The Wilson Bill and IT'S Effects Upon
American Industries.
Designed to reduce taxation, where
in it was successful, to an average of
about fifty per cent, the Wilson bill
was protective measure mitigated by
diminished percentages. It was passed
amid lamentations of professional pro-
tectionist Jeremiahs. Who that fol-
lowed the debate upon the bill fails to
recollect the iterated and reiterated
prediction that it would ruin American
industries, that it would deny to
American labor chance of occupa-
ton, that it would open the ports of
the country to the commerce of the
world and thus totally destroy or woe
fully impair our one chance of pros
perity? 4+,ys
Considerably less than year has
passed since this law became operative.
The volume of imports has been larger
than under the Mckinley enactment,
but none of the direful results so free
~ predicted has been realized On the
contrary, industrial is as great as COM
mereial activity, and both have decid-
edly Increased. Instead of robbing
American labor of its wage it has en-
abled the conductors of industries, al
ways advocates of a high protective
tariff, entering upon increased produc-
ton, voluntarily to increase the scale
of wages. The Wilson bill enlarged
the free list, but not to great extent.
Such limited increase as there was in
this direction helped manufacturers
by enabling them to have raw ma
terial. 90 sHT ~ T
There is returning prosperity, but it
would be the quicker and eompleter if
instead of halting at q halfway meas
ure the Wilson bill had made a tariff
for revenue only.LChicago Chronicle.
