becoming n Citizen.

The man who wants to become a citi-
zen of the United States isput through
a trying ordeal nowadays. 1t isn't as
easy as it used to be when all he had
to do was to take the oath of allegiance
and get the ward boss TO vouch for him.
Things have changed and have gone to
the opposite extreme. Now applicants
have to pass a civil-service eXamina~
ton of considerable pretensions.
Many of the questions would worry the
lawyers who accompany the appli-
cants. For instance, question asked
recently was: "Where must revenue
bills originate and why?" If the man
answers: "In congress-" he is lost :;
but if he replies: "In the house of rep
resentatives. because the people can
not be taxed except by their represen-
tatives." he will be passed with honors.
Irish wit has more than once saved an
applicant. A judge asked a man a few
weeks ago: "What does the president
have to do with the bills sent to him by
congress?' The man meditated for a
moment and then replied: PAY them
like any other honest man5-Philadel-

SOLACE IN SEASICkNESS.
Those Made Miserable by 1t Have the
Comfort of Company.

1t is said that 95 out of every 100
persons who go to sea suffer more
OF less from seasickness, and, taxi
ably thousands at this very mo-
ment who are in abject misery
from this cause. Yet few are deferred
by this fact from going to sea, even
though their own previous experience
teaches them that they must inevitably
suffer. AS with some other states of
temporary distress, so with seasick-
ness; when once it is over, the memory
of it grows dim, and we recklessly incur
the risk again, realizing our folly only
when it is too late to stop the boat.
Although so serious malady to the
sufferer, it is very rare that death re-
suits from it. Delicate women have
made voyages of several weeks dura-
ton, suffering every minute of the way,
and rejecting apparently every swallow
of food; yet, terra firma once reached,
appetite returns, and, after few days,
no trace of suffering remains.
There would be little profit in review
ing the many conflicting theories as to
the nature of seasickness, but it is of in
terest to learn that physicians who have
had the most experience with it's treat
ment regards it as a nervous affection
and not stomach disorder. AL
most every known drug has been
tried at one time or another, but none
has been found that will cure all cases.
A moderately sick voyager should
stay on deck every possible minute, as
near amidships as he can get, out of the
direct rays of the sun, and where the
awful odors of machine oil, steam and
cooking food may not reach him. Re-
clining on a steamer-chair or lying fiat
on deck is better than sitting or stand
ing, and the best of all correctives is di-
version, such as is found in lively con.
versation and the like.
1t is impossible to fix any dietary
rules applicable to all cases, and the
best way is for each one to call, within
reason, for what appeals to his palate
Although seasickness is not primarily
a disorder of the stomach, there is nc
question that it is often made worse by
the overeating, and sometimes over
drinking, so commonly attendant upon
the farewells of those about to sail. A
few days of plain living before going
aboard will perhaps do more than any.
