When people got back to New York, they
wele greeted by hot spell and then by
cold SPELL and, as they say in the game, the
consequence was that everybody caught
cold. From the lady in silks aud laces
down. to that other lady who halls from
Erin in a blanket shawl there is this one
democratic trouble that is too too common.
Entire households are afflicted with il.
Brave men and fair women bend before it,.
Who can make love to u girl who snuiles =?
Or who can admire man with d swollen
nose and his eyes swimming with water
Everybody has different remedy. Hot

plaster and black draught. or Dover's
powder, or large dose Of qunine and hot
lemonade are advised by the women folks.

a mustard plaster and the bliss of the black
draught sleep with not water bag-let il

wherever you may feel chilly This treat
nent will cure Il cold and is the only one

true that some people prefer 10 have the
cold, but they are the people who do moi
really enjoy life at its fullest. There are
always unpleasant people in this world
people who don't think just as you as you
do. It's like the good and the bad men
the men we Ike are good men, and the met
we don't like are bad men.
