COLD AIR HEALTH,
Winter About the Best Stimulant People
Can Have.

Many persons regard the winter sea-
son as an unfortunate visitation. 1t is
considered both uncomfortable to the
body and harmful to health. This is
an error. Cold is a most potent agent
for the restoration and preservation of
normal activity on the part of the or
gans Of the human body. 1t is a wise
plan Of providence which gives us a
change of seasons. The winter cold
comes as tonic to repair the injuries
done by the enervating heat of sum-
mer. Summer. it is true, has many
induces outdoor life, rids the system
of poiSonS through copious perSplra-
ton and through the scorching rays of
sun destroys germ life. Winter is the
great bracer of the system. 1t slim
ulates activity in every organ. When
cold attacks the surface of the body
the blood is set into more free circula-
ton as a means of bodily warmth. 1t
is through the circulation of the blood
that the human anatomy is kept in a
state OF repair. When the food has
been digested and converted into
liquid form. it is taken up by the
blood and carried the rounds of the
system for the purpose of repairing
the waste places. When the cold
causes increased circulation, it also
brings about more perfect nutrition.
Mans face and hands illustrate how
weather-proof the body becomes when
exposed to air. Continued activity In
circulation on the surface, caused by
the air coming in contact with the
skin, tends to nouriSh and thicken the
skin. Thus mans skin grows thicker

DR.. Julia Holmes Smith, who was re-
Gently nominated for trustee of the
Illinois State university, is one
OF the best known women in
Chicago. For many years she has
been leader among women, and has
been particularly prominent in club
work of various kinds. DR.. Smith was
born in Georgia and was twice married,
her first husband being Waldo Abbott,
the only son of ]. s. c. Abbott, the his
torian. Her medical education was OBJ
tanned in the Boston Institute, and she
has done much for the advancement OF
the science, particularly among women.
Many organizations owe their success
to her intelligent and earnest efforts.

was president of the Political Equal
ity League, and was for three years
president of the Woman's Club. She

ago and are raising purse for him, it
all seems incomprehensible to him. He
fails to realize how his simple en-
deavors at preventing the stampede
of a frightened multitude in inky dark
ness should call forth so much praise.
All this happened at the fistic con-
test between Terry McGovern and
Tommy White at the Seaside Sporting
club. The preliminary bout had just
concluded when the great electric
lights fickered, then went out, leaving
its great arena In darkness. A hush
fell on the crowd. Every one expected
tho lamps would soon relight, and
there was little excitement But as the
Of the expected illumination fear and
sense of impending disaster spread fear
over all. Murmurs OF dread were heard
on every side. A thousand excited
spectators struck matches in an effort
to find the exit.

It was an old tune that Conlin struck

Difference in Official Salaries

The retirement of Sir William White
as head of the construction department
of the British navy calls attention to
the fact that his pay has been $1,000
a year, while Rear Admiral Hichborn,
who does the same work in the Ameri-
can navy. is paid but $4,000. The sal
airy in this instance is good basis OF
comparison, and the same proportion
holds true in many other branches of
the service. The salaries of the officers
in the higher ranks in England are
greater than in America, and this ar
gument is often made In favor Of in
creasing the pay in this country, and
probably will be made now that the
comparison between the pay of the two
naval construction chiefs is suggested.
Yet 1t is forgotten that the pay of cap
tains and officers of lower ranks in the
navy is greater in America, as is the
pay of seamen This is the case in
civil service as well, says the Chicago
Tribune. The First Lord of the Treas
ury in England receives more than
three times the pay that is given to
Secretary Gage. Yet the clerks and
heads of the various bureaus in the
American treasury department receive
two or three times as much pay as the
men who do the same work in Eng
land. The American plan is, on the
whole, better, though some clerks are
overpaid.

was also the organizer and the first
president of the Woman's Medical AS
ISOLATION, and is at present the sec
rotary OF one of the bureaus Of the
American Institute of Homeopathy.
Other organizations of which she is a
member and in which she has done ex-
cellent work are the Association for
the Advancement of Women, Acad-
envy Of Physicians and Surgeons and
the Illinois Homeopathic Association.
She is director of the Illinois Training
School for Nurses. DR.. Smith has con-
tributed many valuable articles to pc
riodicals, among the best known being
the series in Common Sense in the
Nursery" These were printed in the
New York Ledger some years ago and
have since been put into book form

Beecher's Truck Farm Sold.

Henry Ward Beecher's truck farm"
a historic tract of land at the south
west corner of Ohio and New Jersey
streets, Indianapolis. was sold by the
Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance
company TO Charles l. Hutchinson.
The ground is almost in the heart OF
the city, just at the beginning Of tho
residence portion, and in the neigh
borhood of some high-class apartment
houses. 1t was on this land that
Henry Ward Beecher lived when he
was preaching in indianapolis. He
was fond of gardening, and from the
patch of land he produced his table
vegetables.

The First International Marriage Was

The First International Marriage Was
I'm 1915.
Some people are given to thinking
that the Englishman's prediction for
the American girl is a recently devel-
Oped passion, says the Saturday Even
ing Post. Such is by no means the
case. If American visitors should care
to see a portrait in oils of one Of the
very first American girls to catch an
Englishman Of position let them Jour-
ney to Boonton Hall, in the county Of
Norfolk, the hall that was In former
days the seat of the Rolfe family. In
this hall hangs portrait by De Passe
or handsome young woman, with
high cheekbones. and complexion
splendidly swarthy. Around this por-
trait are the words Matoaka Rebecka.

portrait are these words, "Matoaka.
alias Rebecka, daughter of the mighty
Prince Powhatani. Emperor of Alta
nough KomOuck, of Virginia; a Chris
tlan convert, and married to the Wor-
shipfull Mr.. Thomas Rolf. Aged 81,
1916" This portrait OF the far-famed
Princess Pocohontas was painted but
few weeks before she died on board
a ship about to sail for America. She
was buried in the parish church Of
Gravesend. at the mouth of the River
Thames. and to this day the curious
can see the following entry in the par
ish register: 1876, March q. Rebecca

a Virginia lady born, was buried here
in the chauncell." Unfortunately the
original edifice was burned down a
century ago, otherwise Americans could
now look upon the tomb OF the first
American girl who took an English
husband.

Prevented
a Panic,


That peace has its victories as well
as war and that not all heroes win
their laurels with the sword has been
more than once demonstrated by a
modest young man named Frank Con-
lin, whose whistling saved 5000 lives
at Coney Island few nights ago, says
the New York Evening World.
Frank Conlin is neither very old nor
very big, but he has proved that he has
strenuous and quick-witted qualities.
That the young man is really modest

Want No More Assessments.

The report of the auditing committee
of the United Mine Workers at Indian
apolis says that there were more
miners on strike June 30 than when
the special assessment of % cents a
month per capita was ordered. On
July 2 the organization had 0,36S.05
on deposit. Many miners are urging
that this large fund be used in caring
for strikers and that the defense-fund
assessment be discontinued.

The Natives Object.

The United States authorities in
Porto Rico are witnessing now the I'M
pleasant sequel of charity-the unwill-
ingness of those on whom it has been
bestowed to go back to work. Last
August frightful hurricane swept the
island and deprived the majority OF
the inhabitants of their food resources.
There was nothing to do but feed
them or let them starve. Public and
private charity came to their relief.
The policy of feeding them until they
were able to plant and gather new
crops was adopted unhesitatingly. 1t
was assumed that by the beginning of
this year it would be possible to stop
issuing rations. But when that time
came it was found impossible to stop
entirely. An aggregate Of 100000 ra-
tions daily is yet being issued. 1t
has been decided to quit this business
entirely before the close of the month.

Healing the Worlds Wounds.

What a grand thing for our poor
human race when this surgeon shall
have completed the treatment of the
worlds wounds! The day will come
when there will be no more hospitals,
for there will be no more sick, and no
more eye and ear infirmaries, for there
will be no more blind or deaf, and no
be brought under arboriculture, and
no more billiards. or Sunstrokes, for
the atmosphere will be expurgated OF
scOrch and chill, and no more war, for
the swords shall come out of the foun-
dry bent into pruning hooks, while in
the heavenly country We shall see the
victims of accident or malformation
or hereditary ills on earth become the
athletes in Elysian fields. Who is that
man with such brilliant eyes close be-
fore the throne? Why, that is the man
who, near Jericho, was blind, and our
surgeon cured his ophthalmia. Who
is that erect and graceful and Queenly
woman before the throne? That was
the one whom our surgeon found bent
almost double and could in nowise lift
up herself, and he made her straight.
Who is that listening with such rap
ture to the music of heaven, solo melt
ing into chorus, cymbal responding
to trumpet, and then himself joining
in the anthem? Why, that is the man
whom our surgeon found deaf and
dumb on the beach of Galilee and by
two touches opened ear gate and
mouth gate. Who is that around whom
the crowds are gathering with admir-
ing looks and thanksgiving and cries
of "Oh, what he did for me! Oh. what
he did for my family! Oh, what he
did for the world" That is the sur
geon of all the centuries, the oculist,
the aurist, the emancipation, the Sa-
vior. No pay he took on earth. Come,
now, and let all heaven pay him with
worship that shall never end and
love that shall never die. On his head
be all the crowns, in his hands be all
the scepters and at his feet be all the
worlds,

gate of his body swung in to let sound
enter, and another gate swung out to
let sound depart. Why is it that, while
other surgeons used knives and for
ceps and probes and stethoscopes, this
surgeon used only the ointment OF his
own lips? To show that all the cura-
tive power we ever feel comes straight
from Christ. And If he touches us not
we shall be deaf as a rock and dumb as
tomb. Oh, thou greatest of all ar
lists. compel us to hear and help us to
speak!
But what were the surgeons fees for
all these cures of eyes and ears and
tongues and withered hands and
crooked backs? The skill and the
painlessness of the operations were
worth hundreds and thousands of
dollars. Do not think that the cases
he took were all moneyless. Did he
not treat the nobleman's son? Did he
not doctor the rulers daughter? Did
he not affect a cure in the house Of
centurian of great wealth who had out
OF his own pocket built a synagogue?
They would have paid him large fees,
and there were hundreds of wealthy
people in Jerusalem and among the
merchant castles along Lake Tiberias
who would have given this surgeon
houses and lands and all they had for
such cures as he could effect. For
critical cases in our time great sur
geons have received $1,000, $4,000 and
in one case l know of $50, 900, but the
surgeon of whom l speak received not
shekel, not penny, not farthing.
In his whole earthly life we know OF
his having had but 621e cents. When
his taxes were due, by his omniscience
he knew of fish in the sea which had
swallowed piece of silver money, as
fish are apt TO swallow anything
bright, and he sent Peter with hook
which brought up that fish, and from
its mouth was extracted Roman sta
ter, or 6212 cents. the only money he
ever had, and that he paid out for
taxes. This greatest surgeon of all the
centuries gave all his services then and
offers all his services now free of all
charge. Without money and without
price" you may spiritually have your
blind eyes opened, and your deaf ears
unbarred, and your dumb tongues
loosened, and your wounds healed and
your soul saved. If Christian people
get hurt of body, mind or soul, let
them remember that surgery is apt
to hurt, but it cures, and you can af
ford DrpSpnt main for futIlro GLORY Pa
sides that, there are powerful anaes-
thetics in the divine promises that
soothe and alleviate. No ether or
chloroform or cocaine ever made one
so superior to distress as few drops
of that magnificent anodyne: "All
things work together for good to those
who love God" Weeping may endure
for night, but Joy cometh in the
morning."
