Closed In the Hay Fever season.


New York Sun: ST. P.,uItay fever
Victims have noticed u l,cculiarity of this
season which seems to confirm tho theory
that the disease Is produced by the pollen
of rag weed. golden rod and other similar
plants Wherever drought has prevailed

Weeds before they Reached maturity, hay
fever has not made it's appearance.

been surprised to learn that no treatment

Paul physician who has treated annually
for several years from twenty to EEty
such patients, said that not a single ease

On the theory that hay fever Is pro-
duced by rag weed pollen a st. Paul man
who contracted hay fever IN southern

excluding the cause. Beginning In the

The following season the same procedure
was kept up, but there was no recurrence
of hay fever. After continuing through
another season the windows were opened

been no return of the maady.

Upton GOT EXPERIENCE.
The Way Sir Thomas Doc. nu,,ne,.

Vn0 way BE Thomas Does Business.
Sir Thomas Upton, in Saturday
Evening Post: There is no royal road
to riches, and. in business as big as
mine, no back lane. My methods are
open. and anybody can see them. A
successful concern is created and MAIN
tanned by the recognition of great facts
and obvious principles-the growth of
population and the increased facilities
OF INSTRUMENTATION between men
and nations. These are the great fac
tors In forming great businesses To
supply the many instead Of the few. to
handle large instead of small quaint
ties, and to be made the grower, the
manufacturer, as We'll as the vendor
and retailer-to do all this is to adopt,
in short q system of business obvious
and open to all. If / proceed to speak
of my own application of these prin-
ciples and of the individual qualities
necessary to work them out in the de-
tails of business, l fear I must fall
back on some very old saws. My re-
ceipt for prosperity, in such q concern
as mine, is at the disposal of all. Here
1t Isl: Work hard, deal honestly, be
enterprising, exercise careful judg-
ment. advertise freely but iudiciously.''
Though he who drives fat oxen need
not himself be fat. captain of indus
try must live up to his name-must
himself be Industrious. That is my be-
lief and 1T has been my practice all my
life. Beginning work at AN early age,
I left Glasgow for New York, in the
hope of finding shorter avenues TO for
tune than the old country afforded I
got experience, at any rate-in New
York city, on a South Carolina planta-
tion and elsewhere. l got little purse
together, too-enough to take me back
to Glasgow and my parents, to better
whose position Was then the MAIN
spring of my effort and ambition.
Never despair; keep pushing on was
my motto during all that time of strug-
gle. No successes have been sweeter
to me than those early ones which my
parents shared With me.

TEARS USED AS nEp1o1s..
Caught in sponses at Funeral. In PERL,
Bottled Up and Sold Later,


Philadelphia Record: In Persia hu-
man tears are regarded as infallible
remedies against certain chronic dis
eases.
So, in order to have a sufficient sup
ply OF tears always on hand. the priests
collect them in singular manner.
Whenever there is funeral the on
ciatlng priest distributes small sponges
among the mourners. with which he In
structs them to remove from their eyes
the tears Which they are i'll duty bound
to shed for the deceased.
After the ceremony is over he col
lects the sponges, which by that time
are usually saturated with tears and
carefully squeezes their contents into a
large bottle. which he then seals and
places In his medicine chest.
No figures are obtainable as to the
quantity of tears which the wet
sponges yield, but. as the priests bot
ties are never empty, it is evident that
the lachrymal glands of Persian mourn-
ers are always ready to comply with
any demand which may be made upon
them.
