Colds and Their Treatment.

There Is one other essential point to be
remembered by those who would escape
colds Us well as drugs. by the free cir.
culation of the blood much impurity is
thrown off through the pores. 1t is there.
fore important when the presence of a
cold indicates some impurity in the blood
that the clothes worn next the skin
should be changed frequently to prevent
transcription to the skin OF course cloth
ing worn during the day should never be
worn ut night. Since it is impossible TO
take cold unless the system is in a
condition for it, it follows that whatever
tones up the system and builds up a well
nourlshed body is unfriendly to colds at
large. The use Of cold water as a pre-
ventlve has many converts and followers.
The treatment consists in thorough
rubbing with a brush before the morn
ing bath ana in slipping a quart of cold
water night and morning The cold wa
ter taken in this way simply washes the
stomach, carrying off the injurious acids
After this the next step is to induce cir
culation. This is done by means of the
vigorous currying, which brings the blood
to the surface to resist external chill and
opens the pores to allow impurities to es-
cape. The brush used should be stiff
enough To accomplish its work. In fact.
regular horse brush is recommended
used gently at first and until the sensitive
skin becomes toned up to the pitch Of
endurance.-Ncw York sun

Miss Adnms. Enmnus Hmm

AS writer, as a poet. there were few
in the literary world of London in the
forticS who had not heard of Sarah Flow
er Adams, the gifted woman to whom al!
ChriStcndom today pays homage in its
love for her immortal hymn Nearer My
God to Thee 1t was written in 1910
and had subsequently been set to music
by Eliza Flower and included in a collcc-
tion Of hymns written and composed by
the two sisters. Only within that wear
had their book Of Hymns and Anthems
been published. and the hymn that was
destined to inspire the world had then
been heard but once or twice and within
the walls of Il single church. South Pal
ace chapel, London
1t was not, however, until after the
year 1850, when the present we'll known
tune was composed for it by Dr. Lowell
Mason of New York, that the hymn at.

that time it had attracted but little no.

sympathetic music it was Quickencd into
glorious life and brought within the reach

author of the hymn had passed away.

From Louis XIV to DisrneIi.

In 1888 a French officer of my ac-
quaintance, Count Charles de Sommer-
ard, was dining at a table where he
found himself seated near a very aged
lady, who remarked casually, My hus-
band once said to Louis XIV" My
friend thought the old lady must be in
sane, but was told that she was the
Duchesse de Richeleu. widow of the IA
nous Armand du Plessis, due de Richie
lieu, and marshal Of France, the captor
of Port Mahon, who died in 17SS. The
due married his third wife in 1884 when
he was IS years old, his bride being 10
years old. She died, | believe, in 1855.
This was a substantial link between the
second empire and the reign of the
Grand Monarque." or between the reign
of Queen Victoria and that Of William of
Orange, for the Due de Richelieu was
born in 1896. The Due de Richeieu
knew the great Duke of Marlborough,
and his third wife was well acquainted
with the Duke of Wellington. The due
knew Robert Harley. earl of Oxford, and
was intimate with Bolingbroke His wild

Holding Ont Something

Artists and professionals are not the
only people who are jealous of the work
of their brains. There are two bright
women who live not far from New York
who are wonderful housekecperS and also
clever inventors of new and delicious
things in the culinary line They are the
most intimate friends, and when one has
made discovery she Immediately noti-
ties the other, and the dish is served in its
best style and receives due appreciation.
The next thing on the programme as
regularly as Il new dish is invented is the
presentation Of the new recipe Either
of the friends would think it breach of
faith not to do this. But the part of it
which outsiders consider amusing is the
fact, which is generally known, that,
while the recipe as given will make a fair
ly good dish, it is not given in its entirety.
One or more of the ingredients is left
out, and the originator can always pre-
pare the dish with more success than her
friend.-New York Times.

To Hold Small phntoSranh.-

A pretty little affair for holding the nu-
merous small photographs which all
young girls possess nowadays is made
from the snap clothespins which may
be purchased for a few cents dozen.
These clothcspins close with a spring
which holds them fast when released.
Select as many as you choose and gid
them. or silver them if you prefer. Take
several yards Of baby ribbon and make a
bow with a cluster Of loops and ends At
tach to this different lengths Of the rib
bon, and to the lower end OF each fasten
one Of the clothcspins.
The photographs are to be caught at
the top in the clothespin, which will hold
them securely. A very pretty cluster may
be arranged by this means if the ribbons
are cut in appropriate lengths. and one
beauty of the arrangement lies in the fact
that new photographs may be added as
acquired by simply sewing new ribbons
underneath with the pins attached

His Accent Won Them.

When the Marquis of Lansdowne was
governor general of Canada, he was called
on to make a speech to some French
Canadians. With all its loyalty to the
English connection. this little bit of
transported France adheres very rigidly
to many things French and especially to
the purity of the French tongue-at least
as it was spoken in the eighteenth CEN
fury. Few viceroys have ever ventured
accordingly to leave the safe security Of
the English tongue, and it was with some
trepidation that the French Canadians
heard that Lord Lansdowne was going
to deliver a speech to them in their own
language. But he had scarcely uttered
the word ''messieurs" when the whole
audience burst into cheers. They recog-
nized at once the accent of the true
French tongue, the accent only possible
to a man of French blood, and one who
had spoken French as his mother tongue.

But time went on, and the brother died.

Washington Ghosts.

Ghost stories for some mysterious rea-
son have been revived of late in Wash
ington. 1t is told again how the face of
an old woman was depicted clearly on
one of the White House pillars the day
President Mckinley received word that
his mother was dead. Capitol employees
entertain their friends with the story of
the shadow of a general looking like
Washington between pillars in Statuary
hall at the capitol. A former senate

THE HAUNTED OAK.

Przy, why are you so bare, so bare,
U bough Of the old oak tree
ana why when go through the shade you throw,
Runs shudder over me?'
MY leaves were green the best trow,
And sap ran free in my veins,
But saw in the moonlight dim and weird
guiltless victims pains
Il bent me down to hear his sigh,
shook with his gurglng moan, y
Ana trembled sore when they rode away
And left him here alone
They'd charged him with the old, old crime
And set him fast in Jail.
Oh, why does the dog howl all night long,
And why does the night wind waltz
Il feel the rope against my bark
And the weight Of him in my grain;
feel in the throe of his final woe
The touch of my own last pain
And nevermore shall leaves come forth
On bough that bears the ban
am burned with dread, am dried and dead
From the curse Of a guiltless man."
