believe there is q great deal OF ef-
fcacy in the old-fashioned remedy, a
thorough rubbing Of the limbs and body,
a process now dignihe3 by the term mas
sage. It is excellent for tired nerves and
muscles. but the rubbing must be given
evenly and quietly, and the patient must
not be allowed to talk. To a person who is
weary and worn and Unable TO sleep, a
good rubbing Is better than oplates. The
arms, the back, under the knees, and the
forehead should all have even rubbing. In
addition to it's being restful, rubbing tends
to develop Nhe body and make tt more sup
pie. The movement of the hands must be
even and impressive, suggestive OF
strength, but not rough. Otherwise ex-
citement and unrest may be the result. A
systematic smoothing Of the hair Is restful
to the tired head ana eyes. When the
eyes are tired dt is also a relief to bathe
them gently in hot water, using a SOFT
handkerchief, and NOT putting the water
on the eyes or rubbing them. When
sick person gets nervous and restless the
good nurse will gently rub he body all
over especially the back and limbs and
sometimes the invalid will almost fall
asleep while the rubbing is in progress.
The furnace fires should not be kept
going too long i'm the spring. It is bad TO
have rooms excessively warm as they
will be in spring days when the sun adds
to the warmth given out by registers and
radiators While a cold and chilly atmos-
phere in a room is TO be avoided, there is u
tonic effect in cool air which is beneficial.
We ali know how depressing hot weather
is. and how the Inhabitants Of warm
countries are lethargie and without am
bldon and energy. a cold air bath is al
most as good a tonic as a cold water
bath. and it IS unwise Ito keep the body
many people do.

CURRENCY LEGISLATION.
Continued from Ninth page.

trust stock as collateral, and it would
require the calling of these loans-that
is, the payment by the stockholders
and Others-and this they could not do
unless they should be able to borrow Il
similar amount elsewhere. If these
borrowers of the banks could not pay
when called on the collateral would DO
sold, and forced sales of this character
are pretty sure to reduce the market
price of the stock sold and thus inau-
gurate a panic. There is another pro-
vision in the Aldrich bill that the
banks are anxious TO establish. The
law now requires that United States
bonds shall be deposited with the Unit
ed States treasury for these loans, and
the bill provides that other security
may be taken in place of the bonds
Secretary Shaw has diSreGarled the
law and in making recent loans TO the
banks has been taking other security
The intention of the law was that ali
-deposits-shoulu be secured by
United States bonds, so that no loss
could ever occur. 1t is unlikely that
United States bonds will go below par,
but railroad and other bonds and
stocks might depreciate far below the
70 per cent of their face value that is
the requirement at present. -f =
The asset currency bill is hardly like
ly to be pushed at the coming congress.
but its principal provision is to allow
the banks to issue their notes without
any security other than the general as
sets of the banks to an amount equal
to their capital stock Such an infia-
ton of the currency of the country
would result in keeping up prices and
might lead to a serious loss to the
government if many banks should fail
in a prolonged panic.
1t is possible that some provision for
an elastic currency may be devised
that will be safe to the people and
profitable to the banks, but the Fowler
bill is not so regarded.
The Democrats will oppose any bill
that favOrs the banks at the expense of
the people. and it will be well for vot-
ers to question their representatives ON
their position on this important ques-
ton.
