IF YOU WANT GOOD HEALTH.

Never go to bed with cold or damp feet.
 Never lean with the back upon any thing that is cold.
 Never take warm drinks and then Immediately, go out into the cold.
 Never omit regular bathing, for, unless the skin is in active condition, the cold will close the pores and favor congestion CT other diseases.
 After exercise of any kind never ride in an open carriage or near the window of a train for moment; it is dangerous to health and even life.
 When hoarse, speak as little as pos sible until the hoarscEess is recovered from, else the voice may be perma- nently lost or difficulties of the throat be produced.
 Merely warm the back by the fire and never continue keeping the back exposed to heat after it has become comfortably warm. To do otherwise is facilitating.
 Keep the back, especially between the shoulder blades, well covered also the chest well protected. In sleeping in a cold room establish the l habit of breathing through the nose and never with the mouth open.-Ta- ble Talk.

The death of Senator Davis, of Min nesota, is sincerely incurred by his colleagues, regardless of party. As Senator Martin. of Virginia, truly said of him: Tn the senate his opinion was as highly regarded by the minor ity as by his own party" As chair man of the committee on foreign rela- tions, Senator Davis personally drew up the declaration of war against Spain which congress adopted, and later as one of the peace commissioners lie helped to negotiate the treaty of peace with Spain. The appointment of a successor to serve until the legislature of Minnesota fills the vacancy is in the hands of Governor Lind, but it is not known in Washington whether he will appoint q democrat or a reDubli- can,- although some think that the honor may go to eX-ReDrasentative Charles. A. Towne. The legislature will. of course. elect a republican in January. The same legislature will also elect a successor to Senator Nel- son, who is willing to succeed him. self. This will add another to the un- usual number Of legislatures that will elect two United States senators aI the same session.

He wants a vindicatiOn, which is little cheeky in view of the general opinion of the public that his sentence to suspension for six years with full pay-$7. .500 year and al lowances, was more than lenient Some time ago an offer was made to restore Eagan to duty if he would immediate ly apply for retirement but he de clined because his pay on the retired list would be. only $5.G2o a year.

 The Springfield Republican tells q story connected with the Harvard Yale foot ball game that is interesting and doubtless true. It is of a Spring field father who went down to see the game and was furnished by his son, who is q Yale student with q flask to keep him from catching cold While | the game was in progress. It was ar ranged that the old gentleman should take nip every time Yale scored and he lived <ups to the arrangement. too. One commentator remarks that there's 1 no telling what would have happened | to him if Yale had kicked another goal That remark is doubtless pertinent But what would haze happened had the plan been to draw on the resour ees Of the flask only if Harvard scored We presume that suggestion is enougl to send cold shiyers down the spinal column of tbe Springfield. man aud his .Yaie son. The moral to Harvard sym lpathizers is clear. Hartford Post.

STATE SUPERVISION NEEDED.

The state board of trade has start ed movement that ought not to rest until the legislature passes the need ed laws that the board advocates. The demand is that the electric railIoad business shall be put, under state supervision just as the steam railroad business it. The trolleys carry more passengers to-day than do the stea Ill
 roads in this state. They have already shown us that they can furnish as dreadful accidents as the records of steam transportation can produce
 They just as much need superision
 When the electrics began in small and doubted way, nobody imagined they would develop into such q vast industry. To-day electric railroading is as much business as steam rall- roading anl electric financing knocks steam financing all hollow. It is the plain duty of the state to take this great industry in hand, as it did with the steam roads. The same public in terests demand such action. It seems altogether likely that the electric managers will cordially indorse the proposition But. whether they do or not. the fact stands that it is an ab- solutely necessary step. The Courant has not agreed with those who pro feSs to see danger for steam roads in the building of trolley lines. These take off some focal travel but they do q great work in building up communi- ties that in their turn add by their growth to the business of the steam lines. It is not yet demonstrated that they are not feeders of rather than feeders on the steam reads. But. whichever they may he, they are here and mean business. If the state super viSeS one of these interests. it is equal ly bound to take the other in hand. The. demand of the state board of trade is a mere echo of the general de mand of the Connecticut public. Ii should be heeded-Hartford COUrant
