which should not ride at all. He give:
| the following ten suggestions:
"Be sure that when sitting upwright

ball OF the foot on the pedal during the
entire revolution. In other words, when
the pedal has reached the most distant
point from the body, be sure there is &
slight bend in the leg at the knee.
Adjust the handlebars at level
which, when the arms are fully extended
will keep the body imam almost upright

fectly comfortable, for q properly fitting
saddle is the most necessary element in
safe and comfortable riding. No one
saddle will tit all riders. Sometimes
many must be tried before the correct
model is found. Incline to saddle that
is stiff and moderately provided with
springs, and which is broad and short
rather than long and narrow. A soft
saddle whether OF padded leather or in
ftated rubber, will always chafe when
ridden a long distance. The pommel
found on the majority OF saddles is very
necessary adjunct it cannot be dispensed
with. There must he sufficient cut out

"The average woman should never ride

the average man higher than 20 inches.
Remember that the higher the gear the
greater the power required to move a

''After having become accustomed to

save your heart.
"While riding, use the same sense in
drinking that you would in watering a
horse. Also, like horse, stick closely
to water as a beverage. Remember that
alcohol stimulates the heart and circula
ton in much the same way that exercise
does, and that il you use it in any form
while wheeling the reaction is speedy
and long reaching.
"Never ride on a full stomach; it will
interfere with the hearts action and
respiration"

Canphor ssIs VIE.

There was "A farmer up home" he
said, "who used TO have his occasional
spree. Every one kneH his falling" says
Time end the Hour, "and neither of the
druggists in town would sell him drop.
One day he brought quart bottle into
one OF the apothecary shops, with two or
three big Jumps Of gum camphor in the
bottom. He told the druggist that his
wife wanted her camphor bottle filled
with alcohol. The druggist filed it with
out suspecting anything. In week the
old man came again, and in little while
the third time. Finally the druggist dis
covered that the gum camphor' was
milky quartz, picked mp in the fields,
and that the farmer had poured camphor
over the outside Of the bottle until enough
had crystalized there to look natural
and smell right. The quartz didn't hurt
the alcohol for drinking purposes"

Menihsi Chiorosorm for Colds.

The Medical age says that menthol
dissolved in chlor0form is the most
efficacious of all remedies. 4 solution OF
one or two parts OF menthol in twenty
parts OF chloroform will not only arrest
the progress Of cold in its initial stage,
but it is also an excellent influenza pro.
phylsctic.
From four TO six drops Of the solution
should be placed in the hollow of the
hand, quickly rubbed between the hands.
the two hands, tightly pressed together,
placed before the face, and the remedy
energeticslly inhaled alternately through
the nose and mouth. 1t will be immedi-
ately noticed that the voatlla parts OF the
solution thoroughly impregnste the nue.
ous membranes Of the nose, mouth and
throat, and even penetrate deep down
in the air passages. During the first two
or three limitations the swedish chloro-
form vapor predominstes. After how
ever, only menthol in sttenuated con-
dition is inhaled, odor and feeling re-
naming apparent tor some time after the
inhalation. As rule, the first inhala-
ton sue'ces to cure the severest tendency
TO sneezing, and often to arrest the pro-
gress of the cold altogether. Two further
applications of the remedy in the course
OF day suffice to suppress the attack
completely. The first inhalation at first
slightly increases the flow from the niue
Gus membrane OF the nose; sfterward,
however, this symptom dminishes quick
ly. Pains in the pharynx and lsrynx
may be quickly eased and often entirely
relieved by the remedy.

Retrenohment,- Ruin 2

The day of retrenchment, or the
day of ruin, for this Government is
awaiting the people of the United
States in the not remote future. We
shall very soon step from the nine
teenth into the twentieth century. We
shall carry with us either the germs of
dissolution and decay or OF life and
conserved energy. To avoid the
former and secure the latter the
American people should begin at
once in the household, in the factory,
in the counting,room, in the manage
ment of great lines of transportation,
and in all other interpretations OF
capital, to practise something of the
economy and frugality which charac-
terized our New England ancestors.
The cost of local governments must
be lessened. Administration OF
county and city and village affairs
must be made more and more bust
ness-like and economical. In short,
the charges of American citizenship
must be cut down.-Hon. J. Sterling
Morton, in the April Forum.

went to the door and raped. When
the door was opened he stepped in
and demanded some money. His ap-
pearance and actions frightened Mrs.
Welliver, who quietly went to the
telephone and ordered policeman
sent out. Officer Kulp promptly
responded, and caught the fellow be-
