ABOUT PNEUMONIA.
The Cause and Prevention of Com
mon and Deadly Disease.

DR.. Cyrus Edson, Commissioner of
Health for the state and city OF New
York, in letter to the public gives
some information and makes some sug-
gestions in respect to pneumonia and its
prevention. He says that pneumonia
is probably an earth germ disease, and
that in cold weather the germs make
their way to the unfrozen ground be-
meath houses. Thus houses become
their route of escape from earth to air,
and thus all houses ought to be well
ventilated.
DR.. Edison of course points ont those
we'll known but little heeded truths in
respect to over-tatigue, irregular eating
and sleeping and lack Of open-air exer-
else. II man is strong, ii he eats at
given hours, if he gets all the sleep he
needs, if he walks or rides in the open
air, he can generally throw it off again.
All the doctors say this and say it pref
| ty often, considering that they do so for
nothing.
| However, there are people who won't
listen to their physicians, and they suf-
fer sometimes. DIR. Edison gives these
people lot Of very important advice
He says that when an adult is seized
with a sudden chill, the chill, which j:
the beginning of pneumonia, ten grains
OF quinine in one dose should be taker
Immediately, followed at once by five
drops Of camphor in water or on lumI
OF sugar. The feet should be soaked il
hot water, the body being wrapped in {
blanket, Then" says he, Jump int
bed" The body viii perspire, being
yet wrapped in the blanket, and 9;
prospective case of pneumonia may b.
nipped in the bud"
In this climate, where sudden anC
violent changes occur, warm under anC
outer clothing and stout, dry shoes are
according TO the doctors, absolutely ne
cessary in early winter. The day ma.
be pleasant, but death frequently Turk
in the bracing, deceptive north wind.

A Question.

II there is anything | detest it is a
chronic growler," and | do not want to
be mistaken as one OF that kind OF ami
mails. But great many wood-hauers
would like to kno~ why the county
court does not advertise for bids to fur
nish the county's wood by the lowest
bidder. If that was done it would give
us all chance to put in a bid. Letting
such contract any other way looks too
much like it was done in order to favor
some particular pet" The practice
should be discontinued. WooD-HAULER

A Few Don'ts.

Here IL lot OF "don'ts" for the guild
ance Of wives: Don't expect impossi-
bilities from your husband. Don't hem
peck him just because You know he is
quiet and will stand it. Don'tsnub him
in the presence Of strangers. Don't run
to your mother with all his faults; ratE-
er keep his good qualities to light and
hide his failures. Don't worry him to
death because you cannot have your
every wish granted. Don't be selfish
with your husband, for he is cure to ap-
preciate your self-sacrifces. Don't have
cold suppers. Remember the nearest
way to mans heart is thtcugh his
stomach. Don't sit mp waiting for your
husband; 60 to bed get all the sleep
you can; in the morning, when you are
looking and feeling your best, if you
have anything to say, say it; nine
chances out Of ten you will win. Don't
think that now you are married he
doesn't care whether you curl your hair
or not. Don't treat him as if you had
come down off pedestal to marry him.
Don't let him come home night after
might and find you entertaining some
late caller-men are not always inter
ested in wonens' chatter; it is apt to be
tiresome after hard days grind at the
office or store. Don't expect him to be
amiable with breakfast of tough steak,
greasy potatoes, cold rolls and muddy
COFFEE. Portland Telegram.

tory of the estate of Rufus N. Ramsay,
late treasurer of the state of Illinois,

400 acres of farming lands in Clinton
and Madison counties, Ill, and state
of Kansas. There is also ST.
Louis and Chicago property, business
and residence property in Carlyle,
Trenton and Breese. The total value
is not appraised. Real estate dealers
place the cash value at 100000. This
would indicate that the total assets
are S174, 900. The total liabilities are
S46s, 900, secured by collateral OF the
Setter bank of Lebanon. This collat-
eral has an estimated value OF $500, 900,
but at forced sale would not bring this
| nmOunt.
