TREATMENT or BRONCHITIS
Simple Remedies Which May Be Ad-
ministered with Beneficial
Effect.

The treatment appropriate for an at
tack of acute bronchitis, or cold on the
chest, varies somewhat according to
the stage of the disease. :
In the beginning, says Youths Com
panion, the mucous membrane of the
bronchial tubes is congested and swollen
and usually quite dry. The secretion
of phlegm is scanty, and the cough,
which may be very teasing in charac-
ter, brings up but little expectoration.
There is generally some pain in the
chest, or at least a feeling of soreLes
and a rasping sensation while cough
ing; and the obstruction to the bron-
chial tubes by the swollen mucous
membrane, and perhaps plugs of thick
Guilty in breathing.
The aim of treatment at this stage
is to loosen" the cough by bringing
about an increased secretion. This is
best effected by warm drinks and the
inhalation Of warm vapor, medieated
or not, as may be thought best. Hot
lemonade without whisky, hot milk
or simple hot water, slipped as hot as can
be borne, will render good service.
The patient, of course, should remain
in the house; and preferably in one
room with a warm, equable temperature,
so as to avoid exposure while perspfr-
ing. II the attack is at all severe much
time will be saved by going to bed for
a day or two. If there is much pain
or soreness, rubbing the chest with
some liniment will afford relief; but
sometimes cloths wrung out of hot wa
ter and ~sprinkled with four or five drops
of ~turpentine, or else thin flaxseed poul-
tees will work better. Limitations Of
warm vapor from a Group kettle Oh from
a pitcher of boiling water are often re-
quired. A teaspoonful of the compound
tincture of benzoin or some oil of
eucalyptus may be added to the boiling
water.
At the onset the patient should take a
mild purgative, and attention must be
given to the bowels throughout the at
tack. Later, when the cough is loose
and the secretion abundant. the treat
ment must be sustaining; the patient
should have plenty Of good, substantial
food. and should drink freely of cool
water.
Sometimes drugs in the form of So
called expectorants are needed In the
early stages, and others to check secre-
ton in the later stages. but all cough
mixtures are more or less bad for the
stomach and are to be avoided If pos
sible; and especially bad are paregorlc
and other preparations of opium. They
are sometimes necessary in certain
cases. but what these cases are must be
left to the doctor to decide.

FOX CHASE IN cATAcoMBS
Hounds Run Their Quarry to Earth
in Excavations of Early Chris
tians Near Rome.

George Won L. Meyer, American am
bassador to Italy, is a splendid horse
man, and when in Rome he follows the
foxhounds regularly, says a London pa
per.
The entire region over which the Ro-
man hunts are held is undermined
by catacombs, excavated by the early
Christians for hiding places during
the Observation-Disclosures of sub
%terranean passages burrowed in every
direction like the diggings of a mole.
One day, when the ambassadors hounds
had met just beyond the world-famous
tomb of Coecilia Metella, an old gray fox
was unearthed and led the field a merry
chase, finally drawing them in the di-
rection of the catacombs Of st. Cal
ixto.
Seeing the pack run up a steep hill
close to the fox's brush, the leading
horsemen firmly expected to be In at
the kill, but what was their surprise and
dismay when, on reaching the top of the
hill, there wasn't q hound in view
Though the country was level and bare
for miles around, the 16 couples had dis
appeared as completely as If they had
been spirited away by magic.
The men stopped short and were con-
sulting as to what they should do when
faint whimpers like the far-of sound
of a pack in full cry, seemed to rise from
the ground. They became more and

tened, and finally ceased entirely. Fol
1 moment the hunters looked at each
other in blank amaZement. Then the
master, Prince San Faustino, seemed to
have found the solution and rode off,
scanning the ground carefully in every
direction.
A minute later he showed the others
a hole in the ground about the size of
a barrel hoop, with marks of paving
all around it. The fox evidently had
known of this entrance into the cata-
combs and entered it, followed by the
hounds.
Laborers were summoned in haste,
and the opening was enlarged sufi-
GENTLY to allow q man to enter ON
fortably. After that the horn was set
going, and the men took turns at 1t.
For awhile there was no response, but
finally a few exhausted hounds began
to struggle in, and in time most of them
were rescued, though a few never re-
turned, probably having strayed down
so far that they could not hear the horn.
or having fallen into the dark pits that
abound in the catacombs.
For days afterwards peasants who
passed the spot told Of hearing strange,
fearful noises emanating from the bow
els of the earth-sounds like the lamen-
tations of a lost soul. With the supersti-
ton of the ignorant, they crossed them
selves and hurried by, instead Of stopping

FRINGED AND JETTED HATS.
Attractive Features Of the New MIL
linery That Is Just Com
ing In.

The new jetted hats show evidence
of progress. They are jetted. not with
little spangles, but with long hanging
drops which dangle and flash very pref
lilly. These are sewed into lace or
into some soft substance, or the hat
Is covered with silk which is covered
with the little dangling drops, reports
the Brooklyn Eagle.
A great many of the hats will have
dangling ends. Hats that are bor-
dered with fringe will not be uncofn-
mon. To border a hat with fringe is
a simple matter. Apply the fringe
10 the brim Of the hat so that it
falls over the face and hair, and that
Is oil there Is to it. But it should
be a very handsome fringe, very lus-
trous, and it should not be too deep.
The soft chenille fringes and those
that are deliberately jetted are much
used.
A great many hats will have the
lace borders, coming down so as to
make a scarf which falls over the
brim. Last season not a few of the
hats had a border of fine Insertion,
which was applied precisely as though
1t were lace. This Is good upon a hat
of midsummer.
The absolutely fiat hat is out, but
the very tall hat has come in. On
the other hand, the low hat, without a
bandeau, without crown, and without
top trimming of any kind, has been
banished from sight and there is no
sign that it will come back this season.
