The speaker discussed numerous
incidental causes of o. Ia, their bed
effects and dangerous tendencies, and
enlarged upon the ease and certainty
with which they may be prevented
and cured by the wise use of simple
agencies. He insisted that every
cold, like every other form of dis
ease, was the inevitable result of a
violation of physiological laws, which
are natures laws, which are Gods
laws. Transgression of law Is sin,
and sickness is therefore sinful. Peo-
pie should cultivate the habit of
health, instead of the habit of sick
ness. Health is normal, the inten-
ton of nature; sickness is abnormal.

SUGGESTIONS TO THE FISCAL COURT.
Exercising the right of a citizen
and taxpayer of Bath county 1
make these suggestions to the FIs-
cal Court
1t seems to be the purpose of the
Court to buy the turnpikes in the
county and make them free of toll.
1t is best not to attempt anything
of such Importance without both
giving it the fullest thought and
hearing the opinions of those most
vitality interested; to not jump the
rabbit until you are prepared for it.
l shall deal in round numbers,
leaving off the fractions.
The county Indebtedness is
$35, 900. 1t must be paid and ought
to be paid as quickly as possible to
stop interest. This is my solution
of the problem of paying that and
providing for free turnpikes, as
they are called
By an additional levy this year
you can raise enough to pay off
the $4,000 debt contracted under
the old State constitution. The law
permits this.
BY the strictest economy after
paying the county expenses this
year, you can raise enough by the
regular levy to pay $4,000 of the
debt contracted under the new State
constitution, leaving county in
debtedness of $4,000.
Submit to the voters at the next
November election the proposition
to issue $GO,OOO's worth of bonds,
which is the legal limit of county
bonded Indebtedness. Or to explain ::
the equalized county assessment is
$2,759, $50, exclusive of the banks,
railroads and some other corpora
tions; including the latter the
total would be $3,O00,O00; at the
legal limit of two per cent. for a
bonded county debt the issuance
of $6O.OOO's worth of bonds would
be permissible. I
Then when the bonds are voted
and sold pay off the $4,000 bal
ance before mentioned, and that
would leave the county with $45,-
coo with which to buy the turnpike
stock, and with no other debt ex-
cept that for the current yearly
expenses. In that way the county
debt would be only $4,000 more
than it is now and the roads would
be free of toll. No one would be
robbed of his private property, that
the law is obliged to protect. The

form of pneumonia, bronchitis, etc.,
may be broken up in from four to
twenty-four hours. To avoid suscep-
tibility to colds one must exercise
the skin. The little sphincter mus
cles spoken of are involuntary mus
cles acting automatically when ex-
posed to the proper stimulus. Like
all other muscular tissue, they de-
yelop size and power from exercise.
Their stimulus is cold. They contract
when exposed to cold and relax when
exposed to heat. People in cold
weather take less outdoor exercise,
breathe less free air, bathe less, wear
more clothing, eat more food, remain
in heated rooms, thus getting the
skin into a clogged and inactive con-
dition, and consequently take cold
easily.
ITO avoid this the opposite course
must be pursued. The skin must be
exercised daily. One should sleep in
"a room where there is no fire and
with the windows open. Use plenty
of bed covering. but not too much.
When one awakes in the morning the
skin is warm and relaxed and the
pores open. Jump out of bed, throw
off all clothing, and expose the en-
tire surface of the body to the air.
This causes the sphincter muscles to
contract, thus giving them exercise,
and closing the pores. This is the
principle upon which skin exercise
depends, alternate exposure to heat
and cold.
"For one who has accustomed him.
self to it, n toweling all over the body
with cold water in Il cold room is a
great luxury. After the toweling dc
not use u dry towel, but put on the
clothing without drying. One not
accustomed to these things should
begin very gradually in a warm room
with tepid water, and so on.

tOllgates would collect toll only one
year longer, and when they went
they would be gone forever, so fan
as the present system is concerned
at least.
1t might be objected that there
is a chance that the bond PROPOSE
tion wouldn't carry next Novemb Der.
In that event the situation would
be no worse than 1t is now. The
Court of Appeals has decided in
cases like the vote of Bath county
at last November shat the bond is
sues must carry at elections by IA
two thirds majority of all those
voting at that election whether or
not they voted upon the question
of issuing bonds. Circuit Judge
Thos. j. Scott (well remembered
here as the able Judge of the Court
of Common Pleas has decided that
the bond issue failed to carry at
the Madison county election last
November. Madison county's is Il
parallel case to Baths.
In conclusion, deliberation and n
careful examination of the ground
before a step is taken is urged.
Mistakes will be most difficult to
correct and will be costly to the
taxpayers and all citizens.
