CATARRH.

As the skin covers the outside of the
body, so the mucus membrane lines the
inside of the body. 1t lines the nose, the
mouth, the throat, the bronchial tubes,
the air-cells, the psophagus, the bowels,
the gall bladder, the kidneys, the womb
etc. Taking cold in any region of this
lining mucous membrane causes an irri-
tation of the locality, which is always
known in medical parlance as catarah of

ACUTE CATARRH.
The acute form OF catarrh is always
that congested condition of the mucous
membrane which takes place immedi-
ately upon taking cold
CHRONIC CATARRH,
Chronic catarrh of the nose is thick
ened condition of the mucous msmbrane,
following the acute stage of the disease.
After acute catarrh has continued for
two weeks it naturally becomes chronic
At first the membrane in chronic catarrh
is but slightly thickened; but, as time
goes on without curing the disease, the
thickening continues until the mem
brane may be four or five times as thick
as in health. And in rare cases the
hypertrophy (thickening) continues un-
til the opposite surfaces, covered by mu-
cOuS membrane, at some points meet
and entirely close the nostrils, so that
breathing can take place only through
the mouth.
DEAFNESS.
One Of thegreatest causes of deafness
is catarrh, the mucous falling into the

There were two OF us and We had
between us a surplus OF three or four
dollars. We cast about for something
to do with our money. Suddenly an
idea occurred to the Three-Spot. II
isn't very often that this happens. but
the surplus probably did It on this
occasion.
Il have IT," he said. He didn't mean
the money. for the Two-Spot was care
fui to keep that In his pocket. Il have
IT," he repeated. Let's go along tho
street until We md some poor. ragged
children looking eagerly In the shop
w!adows. Then we'll md out what
they want most and go In and buy
It."
Good" replied the Two-Spot, "but
what shall We do with the rest OF tho
money!
Well 20 I'LL we're tired. and !
guess they'll be no rest for tho
weary"
And 20 We started out. And let II be
recorded here that We had visions OF
Swarms Of ragged children gazing Into
every window along the business
streets. But In this We were doomed
to disappoin;ment Early In tho AFT
c.uoon there was not one poor look
ins child who was not trudgins along
beside It's mother. The latter scncr-
ally had an armful OF parcels and
was evidently intent on purchasing
more. Up and down the entire length
Of Woodward avenue ws went with

looking candidate for our masnnnim-
ity. Then We tried Grat!ot avenue.
Surely there would be lots OF them. We
thought. on Gratiot avenue. little Poles
and German children. But VIC walked
nearly out to the railroad tracks. up
one side and down the other. and set
eyes on never one.
The Thrcc-Spot was beginning to
cast eyes on some new pipes In tho
store windows and made several re-
marks about the dcsirabil!ty OF having
n stein on ones mantcl.
DO you know" said he to the Two
Spot. II don't believe there are any
poor. ragged children lookin. into

The Two-Spot replied that 1, wasn't

into windows did not begin until

RoSis eVileor:s Turksy.

Rosie Wilcox was little .lri Of !:
years. She lived with her parents on
a thrifty farm In the Mississippi val

thought n great deal. lie had always
been very tame and was a great pct

surrounding farms. His name was
Bronxic. Rosie named all Of her pets.

turc and his color was bronze. As all
Mr.. wileox's turkeys were young.
Rosie never feared for hers.
One day near Christmas Mr.. Wilcox
said:
I'm ruthcr sorry. little one. but I'm

Rosie was dumfoundcd. and her
father. seeing tho panied expression on
her face turned away.
when Rosie had partially recovered
her senses she sat down on the bottom
rung OF the ladder that led to tho gra-
nary and thought. At last bright
thought struck her. She would sell
him to Farmer Max. She Kew ne
would take good care Of him, as he WA
making n collection OF beautiful
fowls Of all kinds. and was not Bronxis

Arriving at this conclusion. which
greatly comfortcd her. she got up and
walked slowly toward tho house.
where mamma had been calling her
for at least Is minutes. Next morn
Ing after troubled night. Rosie arose.
and dressing quickly. hurried down the
road with her turkey. She paused in
front OF the large white farm house
to recover her breath. and then went
on to the barns. where she saw tho
farmer milking his cows. He was very
glad to take the turkey and promised
Rosie n good price for him.
Mr.. Wilcox did not see his daughter
until that noon. when he said:
Yer turkey didn't like his new
home. SO he come a-trottin' inter the
yard 'safternoon s though hc owned

because her pet bull pup. which she
had been compelled to put in his car

on the side OF the car. Other thespians
and railroad men interfered and peace
was restored. The company boarded
the train at Hartford City. but the con-
ductor refused to allow Mrs. Ferguson
and another woman in the troupe to
take their pets into the passenger
coach. Mrs. Ferguson says her pet
was worth $40, and she has filed
claim with the company. The bottle
hurled at the baggageman was used to
