How to Cure a Cold.

One of the citizens of this burg who
has been troubled with a severe cold
on the lungs effected his recovery in
the following simple manner, says the
Deckerville Recorder: He boiled a lit
tie boneset and hoarhound together
and drank freely of the tea before GO
ing to bed. The next day he took five
pills. put one kind of plaster on his
breast, another under his arms, and
still another on his back. Under adj
vice from an experienced old lady he
took all these off with an oyster knife
in the afternoon and slapped on a
mustard paste instead. His mother
put some onion drafts on his feet and
gave him a lump of tar to swallow.
Then he put some hot bricks to his
feet and went to bed. Next morning
another old lady came in with a, bot
tie of goose oil and gave him dose
of it in a quill and an aunt arrived
about the same time with bundle of
sweet fern which she made into tea
and gave him every half hour until
noon, when he took a big dose of
salts. After dinner his wife, who had
seen fine old lady of great expert
ehSS III uoCIoTIiS, gave AlIh INo plllS
of her make, about the size of an Eng
lish walnut, and two tablespoonsful of
homemade balsam to keep them
down. Then he took a half-pint of
hot rum at the suggestion of an old
sea captain and steamed his legs with
an alcohol bath. At this crisis two
of the neighbors arrived, who saw at
once that his blood was out of order,
and gave him a half-gallon of spear
mint tea and big dose of castor oil.
Before going to bed he took eight of
a new kind of pills, wrapped about
his neck n blanket soaked in hot vine
gar and salt, and had feathers burnt
on a shovel in his room. He is now
thoroughly cured and full of graft
tude.

In 1904.

The world has read and digested
the presidents message to congress.
We have read IN the newspapers COM
ments upon the message as made at
home and as made abroad. Some
critics who see things as Roosevelt
sees them, and let party prejudices
rather than their own minds guide
them in making their criticisms, de-
clare the message is a magnificent
document and that it adds Iustre to
the name and fame of the presidential
architect, who designed it and gave it
to the world. But the prevailing Opin-
ion is that the presidents message
could best be summed up numerically
thus-"1904." 1t is the prevailing
opinion that Roosevelt, who has new
er yet been elected president, but who
was made president by national ca
lamity, wants to be elected president,
and, as as one critic put it, Roosevelt
in designing his message was not so
interested in dealing heroically with
the issues of today as he was with
leaving an impression that would
have bearing on 1904" Is it not
reasonable to believe therefore that
''1904" caused the eclipse of the trust
question in the message? Roosevelt
talked about the trusts in his mes,
sage, it is true, but what did he say
in his message that the trust mag
mates would not have said had they
themselves written that message? He
attacked them, it is true, but a care
full diagnosis of the attack reveals
rather spirit of friendship than a
spirit of hostility.
Roosevelt, youthful, ,impetuous, inn
pulsive, vigorous and running over
with lofty aspirations to keep the
most conspicuous place before the
public, feels that it is the duty of the
people of the United States to elect
him president in 1904" In his mes
sage he sought to maintain the

toonist. as related in yesterdays dis

Guayquil, Ecuador, as consul general
of the United States. and there, after
an illness of only three days, came
the sad end. Mast became famous
during the civil war through his pict-

his cartoons during the presidential

We allude to this because of

Vinol to help everybody. Yet,
strange to say, out of every one
