As q result OF the changeable eli
mate, catarrh has become one OF the
most prevalent and universal dis
eases known 10 man. Nearly one
third Of the people Of the United
States r afflicted with catarrh in
some OF its many phases and stages.
Add to this the a. that catarrh rap
idly tends 10 become fixed or chronic,
also the further fact that II is ca
pable OF producing a great many
other diseases, and we begin 10 real
lie the true nature Of this dread dis
ease.
So formidable has catarrh become
that in every city or town of any
size numerous doctors are TO be
found who make the treatment OF ca
tarrh a speciality. OF course a great
deal OF good is accomplished in this
way, but as yet a comparatively
small number of the people can avail
themselves OF this treatment be-
cause OF the great expense necessa-
rly attached 10 it.

to read them, He says that the signs

the age of the child as according to
the disease from which it is suffering
Cries are the only language which
young baby has to express its distress,
as smiles and laughter and merry an
tics tell. without a word of its glad
ness. The baby must be i'll, as all its
cries tell one person: another, who has
seen much of sick children, will gather
from them more. and will be able to
judge whether its suffering is in the
head, or chest, or stomach. There is,

The cry of passion, for instance, is
furious cry.
The cry of sleepiness is drowsy
cry.
The cry of grief is a sobbing cry.
The cry of an infant when reused
from sleep is a shrill cry.
The cry of hunger is very character
istic-it is unaccompanied with tears,
and is a wailing cry.
The cry of teething is fretful cry.
The cry of pain tells to the practiced
ear the part of pain.
The cry of earache is short sharp,
piercing and decisive, the head being
moved from side to side and the little
hand being often put up to the affected
side of the head.
The cry of the bowelache is also eX-
pressive-the cry is not so piercing as
that from earache. and is an interrupt
ed, straining cry, accompanied with
drawing of the legs to the abdomen

In Case of Fire.

Quick, intelligent work is imperative
when a persons clothes become ignited.
Your first move should be to get the
person at length upon the floor The
easiest and safest way to accomplish
this is by tripping. Then roll him over
and over. This alone will go long
way toward smothering the flames, but
at the same time lay hold of rug,
coat, or anything thick with which the
operation can be more speedily and
effectually completed. A pailful OF
water will answer the purpose, per-
haps, but do not take even ten seconds
to obtain it. 1t is of vital Importance
that you make use of the nearest
means. Strive to keep the flames away
form the upper half of the body, for
that is the most vulnerable portion of
the human anatomy.
Should your own clothing catch fire,
it will require all of your courage and
training TO enable you to act ration
ally. The natural and almost overpew-
ering impulse is to run. Don't; it only
makes bad matter rapidly worse. Lie
down at once and roll yourself UP in
anything which will assist in smoth-
ering the flames. Fire has a strong up
ward tendency and it will soon envelop
your whole body if you remain on your
feet. The danger of your inhaling the
flames is also greatly increased. ana
internal burns are pretty uniformly
fatal.
So far l have used the masculine
pronoun, but all of my directions apply
with even more force to the women.
1t is sad fact that three-fourths of
those who suffer from burns belong to
the fair sex. This is attribute BILE, in a
large measure. to the inflammable ma
ture of their dress.-Good Housekeeper.
