The doctors are enjoying a har-
vest these days inducing virus points
into the anatomy of people who fear
the visitation of small pox. Sheriff
Dickinson and family and his entire
list of boarders at the county jail sub
mitted to this ordeal the other day.
We amt kickin', of course, but
we do feel that we were born too soon
when we think of the advantages the
young men have who do their court
ing in an automobile-nO lines to
hold to bother and nothing to do but
just keep the dear sweet creature at
their side from falling out. Back
ward, turn backward, oh Time in
your flight and give us a chance again
just for one night; make us to realize,
Oh Time, if you can, that we are a
boy again, ard not man. Pick out
these gray locks, erase these wrinkles
now deep, while we are in an "auto"
lull these angels to sleep.
When you 60 to the postotfice for
your mail don't fail to open your let
tiers and papers in the office. Scatter
the wrappers and scraps of paper
around the floor. When the floor is
nicely Uttered it makes it look as
though Uncle Sam was doing bust
ness. Muss it up just like you do
YOUR parlor and your kitchen. When
you get dun through the mail get
mad and tear the paper into tiny
pieces and scatter them about. A
postofice is not a place to look re-
spectacle and you must do all you
can to give it dummy appearance.

This extremely cold weather is hav-
ing peculiar effect on the editor Of
the Savanna Times as the following
clipped from his paper will indicate:
Il would like to meet in casual
way, when my mind was free from
fun and play, when my thoughts
were deep as the world is thru and
my wisdom startle the world anew; |
would like to meet at such a time
when prose was prose and rhyme was
rhyme; Professor Triggs and his
: burly crew and old man Dowie of holy
hue, and Patrick Grove by his own
consent, and Willie Tascott where're
he went, and Charlie Ross and the
man they say laid Billy Patterson out
of the way; aud few more fellows of
passing fame who had tried so hard
to make name; | would like to meet
them at such time and say: You're
great in your special line, but if you
really desire to be the brave OF the
bravest on land and sea, man Of
fame both near and far to always ride
in special car, to feel the thrill of
great esteem come chasing down your
spinal beam, come take this paper for
day and tell rs what you've got to
say on things in general, from good to
bad, both grave and gay and blithe
and sad, from virtue chaste to great
est crimes, then print it in the Savan-
ma Times. If they didn't Kill you.

all the sad things that are sad, is the

Science of Colds.

Almost everybody one meets is af-
f1icted with that trivial but annoying
ailment a cold" This is one of the
minor troubles of life. but it is a sin
gularly perverse affection all the same,
and one decidedly obstinate as regards
it's tendencies toward cure. Doctors
now agree that the cold in the head or
"cOryZa" is an infectious trouble. and
therefore to be regarded as another
triumph for the ubiquitous micrObe.
The spread of cold through a household
may thus be accounted for on the sci
entific principle of ordinary infection.
The means of cure are many. One
English specialist recommends taking
an opate to start with, in the shape of
fifteen or twenty drops Of chlorodyne
in water. repeating the dose in, say,
four hours He also prescribeS a Dow
er's powder at bedtime (say ten grains)
and 4 hot drink, by way of encourag-
ing skin action provided risk of cold
