PREVENTION OF MOUTH BREATHING.
In a former article We considered
some Of the evil effects Of mouth
breathing. and saw that it resulted In
Injury to the entire respiratory system
as we'll 10 in actual deformity Of the
bones Of the face. The cause Of mouth
breathing Is of course anything that
interferes with the free passage Of
air through the nostrils. Thus In the
early stage of an ordinary cold, the
membranous lining Of the nostrils pc
comes swollen, the nose becomes
stopped up and the sufferer U
breathe through the mouth, to ms
added discomfort. This Is only tempo
rary, yet It is by no means unimport-
sant. for while It lasts it exposes one 10
inflammation Of the tonsils. throat n
lungs through the inhalation OF coiu
md unnltered air. .
OF greater Importance. however, are
lie causes Of habitual mouth-Drea1n-
ing, from which so many children SUI
fer. The most common of these Is .
collection Of glandular tissue IN q
pharynx, and whenever a young cnllo
is seen to breathe habitually with open
mouth. an examination OF these
growths should be made. .
Physicians some times hesitate ~
remove them, for they say they Will
probably disappear as the child grows
Older: but they may not disappear
and ven II they do, it may be only
after permanent damage has been
done to the child. They ought always
to be removed when they are voluml-
ous enough to obstruct nasal resplra-
ton.
A somewhat less common III OF
habitual Notwithstanding is the pres
ence- Of enlarged tonsils-a condition
which may or may not coexist with
that just mentioned. These also VIII
probably grow smaller as the cniid
grows larger, but it is Tar better to re-
move them at once, before irremedl-
able damage has been done.
Less frequently the nostrils are oD-
structed by growths, known as poiypi'
from their lining mucous membrane.
The treatment of most of these con-
ditions is simple, but as it can be ar
ried out only by the physician, 1t need
not be discussed here. The aim OF MS
article is to urge the necessity OF seek
ing medical advice. for any one, cnllo
or adult, who habitually breathes
through the mouth, in order that more
serious trouble may be aSerted.

DAILY N HICKMAN.

New Story Told of the Late Montana
Copper KiuE.
When Marcus Daily vas in Wash
ington last it Is told that he performed
a humane act which very nearly
brought a brutal hack driver into the
police court, and was a topic Of con-
~versation at the hotel and other places
which DAILY f%requented. The story es-
capped the vigilance of the local news
paper fraternity, and is here published
for the first time. DAILY was coming
out of Chamberlain's one morning
when he espied a negro hackman
brutally belaboring a crippled old
norge with a heavy. whip in an almost
futile effort to increase It's speed from
a walk to a slow trot, says the Wash
ington Post. DAILY hailed the driver,
who quickly drew rein and approached
the curb with the prospects Of obtain
ing a fare. where do you want to
go to, boss?" inquired the negro. '"Ill
want to go with you to the police court
If you don't stop beating that poor old
horse" replied the millionaire. "You
could coax the nag along faster with Q
handful Of oats and a wisp of hay in
front of him than you can by beating
him from behind. When did you feed
him last?" \ The negro complained that
times were hard, that fares were scarce
and that he could not afford to pro-
vide better for his horse. DAILY saw
the force of the argument at once and
inquired how much the cabman aver
aged a week, and vas told that IS or
$40 was considered a good wage. DAILY
reached down in his vest pocket and
drew forth a roll of bills, from which
he peeled a $50 note and handed it to
the a~stonished negro. There, take
that" said the copper king, land put
that rack of bones in the barn and
treat him to a banquet Of hay and corn
and If 1 see you with him on the streets
in the next two weeks I'll have you
arrested"

RUMoRED RAILWAY CHANGES.

RUMORED RAILWAY CHANGES.
The air is full of rumors of great and
sweeping changes in the railway situa-
ton and a division of the railways of
Mexico into groups, one controlling
the Mexican National. which will be
made a standard guage, and the other
taking over the Mexican Central. 1t
is believed that the Southern Pacific is
absorbing the Mexican National, and
will control the oMnterey Gulf road
and possibly the old Vera Cruz line.
Prominent capitalists have their agents

DISMISSAL RECOMMENDED
BY CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION.
Another Step Taken in the Effort to
Get New Collector of Customs.

Get New Collector of Customs.
The following dispatch from Wash
lngton was published in the Dallas
News of March 26th:
1.-The civil service commission has
recommended to the secretary of the
treasury the dismissal of Moses Dillon.
United States collector Of customs at
e. Paso. Texas. and also of Inspectors
Fink, Bloom, and Race.
Of the inspectors named in the report
Inspector Bloom has not been connec-
ted with the customs service for many
months and Inspector Race. the former
secretary of the civil service board
ago. Bloom and Dillon are the only
two left in the employ of the treasury
department.
The news of the recommendation OF
the commission created some excite
ment in official circles, although it is
believed that the recommendations
may not necessarily be acted upon and
if properly opposed action may be
STAYED off for months, just as was the
case at Nogales when the dismissal OF
Collector Chenoweth was recommend
ed.
The recent warrants issued here for
the arrest of MesSrs. Bloom and Dill
lon were based. it is believed. on the
investigations made by two civil ser
vice men who were here some time
since They dug up all the evidence
possible against Dillon, Bloom, ct al,
and made their report in accordance
The next step was the recommendation
of dismissal filed by the civil service
commission at Washington.
