The season is approaching" said a
prominent physician to a Star writer,
when a great many people who suffer
from what is known as hay fever, II
as but few who are susceptible to the
complaint know how to avoid, much
less cure it, a few remarks about the
nature and treatment of the ailment
may not be uninteresting. Hay fever
is a ervou affection usually, most
prevalent during the spring and early
summer, from which the poorer classes
and more especially those living in
populous towns rarely If ever suffer.
1t is known only to the educated, whose
nervous systems are highly developed,
and though not in any sense danger
Gus, it is at all times very irritating
and troublesome. The smell of hay,
grass, the pollen of flowers, the odor
of fruit, dust or draught will generate
the complaint or excite ar attack in
persons subject to it; but rain or damp
weather invariably brings relief. At
one time it was generally supposed
that the odor of hay when being mown

ton, which is closely analogous 10
asthma, but recent observation shows
that it's prevalence is entirely indie
pendent Of the existence of hay fields,
and is really a nervous arrangement.
A visit to the seaside, a trip to sea, or
residence in a %populous town, will how
ever, remove the asthmatic tendency,
but one of the best remedies is tobac-
co smoke, retained in the mouth as
long as possible. The inhalation of
the steam of ten drops of creosote in
a pint'of hot water is also good, or 90
drops of spirit of camphor to the same
quantity of water makes a very effec-
tive inhalation. But the affection be-
ing a nervous one, tonics and nour-
ishing diets are more essential than
any of these palliatives, which mereN
afford temporary Observation-Disclosures

Abundance of coal and iron exists in
every province in China, the coal field
of Shansi alone being probably the
largest which is yet known in the
world, while each Of the other valuable
minerals, except platinum, invites
profitable work in many parts Of the
empire. The use OF most of these eartN
products, as well as certain methods
of obtaining them, has indeed been
known to the Chinese for thousands OF
years. The tradition that coal was the
chief fuel of the people many centuries
before its value was known in Europe,
at a period anterior to the Christian
era, is to a certain extent confirmed by
Marco Polo, whose remarks on the sub
ject indicate that the use of it OBJ
served by him as being general must
have begun long before his time. at

Cathay there is a kind Of black stone

of firewood also, but they do not burn
it, because these stones burn better and
cost less."-Yule's Marco Polo" Vol.
l., p. 395. But though this long-con-
tinued usage of coal by hundreds of
millions of people nay seem to render
it doubtful whether any considerable
quantity is left, it is, on the contrary,
practically certain that this residue i'm
~measurably exceeds all that in many
ages has yet been recovered. Partly

coal, but other minerals have been
taken merely from the surface, and
according to all experience, therefore
what remains below must be in vastly
greater quantities. -The Contemporary

CAPT. RICHARD WAINWRIGHT.
Wainwright. When the Maine was
blown up in the harbor of Havana
Wainwright stood on the quarterback
beside Capt. Sigsbee and supervised
the lowering Of such boats as were not
destroyed. From that day he has been
spelling for a fight with the Spaniards.
He remained with the wreck from the
night of the explosion, Feb. Is, until
he hauled down the tattered flag with
his own hands April 5, and was the
sole surviving officer of the Maine left
in Havana. Strictly speaking, he was
never in Havana, for he refused to set
his foot on the island of Cuba while
the work of investigating the explosion
was In progress. At the conclusion of
the investigation Wainwright was or
dered to Washington for staff duty in
the navy department. The ransfer
was anything but to his liking. He
confided to his friends that he wanted
"a good little vessel with some ca
pable guns, and a crack at the enemy
on something like even terms" When
he was assigned to the command of the
Gloucester he was supremely happy
and from that day he has been max.
ing a record for himself, his crew and
vessel.

Mr., Anderson does not claim much for
his aerial machine. He limits its de-

also invented a submarine boat, which

Probably at no time in the worlds
history has SO much attention been
paid to the interior decoration OF
homes as at present. No home, no
matter how humble, is without its
handiwork that helps to ~beautify the
apartments and make the surround
ings more cheerful. The taste OF the
American people has kept pace with
the age, and almost every day brings
forth something new in the way OF a
picture, q draping, a piece OF furniture
or some form of mural decoration.
One OF the latest of these mas been
given to the world by the celebrated
artist, Muyllle, in a series OF four
handsome porcelain game plaques.
Not for years has anything as hand
some in this line been seen. The sub
jects represented by these plaques are
American viii. Ducks, American
Pheasant, American Quail and English
Snipe. They are handsome paintings
and are especially designed for hang
ing on dining-Ioom wallis, though
their richness and beauty entities them

Every purchaser of three ten-cent
packages of Elastic Starch, f1at-iron

not be sent through the mail, the only
way to obtain them being from your
grocer. Every grocery store in the
country has Elastic Starch for sale. 1t
is the oldest and best laundry starch
on the market, and is the most perfect
