Proper Treatmen, Of Pneumonio.

Pneumonia is too dangerous disease
for anyone to attempt to doctor himself,
although he may have the proper rene
dies at hand. Aphysician should always
be called. It should be borne in mind,
however, that pneumonia always results
from cold or from an attack OF the grip,
and that by giving Chamberlain'sG Cough
Remedy the threatened attack Of pneu-
monia may be warded off. This remedy
is also used by physicians in the treat
ment OF pneumonia with the best results.
DIR. w. j. Smith, Of Sanders. Ala, who
is also druggist, says Of it: ~ have

edy and prescribing it in my practice for
the past six years. used it in cases OF
pneumonia and have always gotten the
best results" Sold by o. 4. Long.

The Saguache Crescent gives the out
line of plan which is proposed to intro
duce in the public schools of that place
for the purpose of encouraging thrift and
economy among the pupils. Briefly
stated, the plan is to issue cards and
gummed stamps to the teachers who
will then sell the stamps to pupils in de-
nominations ranging from one cent up
wards in value. These stamps are to be
gummed to the deposit card until the
total sum presented amounts to $500
when the card will be turned in to the
Saguache county bank and regular
pass book issued to the holder. Mr.
Boyd, the custodian of the fund, will in.
vest it in registered school warrants
which draw interest SO that the fund
will constantly increase from accrued in
terest as well as from savings deposits,
II is believed that this system or some
thing similar will be OF great value in
teaching the children thrift and econo-
my by inducing them to save the money
which they would spend foolishly.

As TO EGGS.

Somebody with the faculty OF getting
at the bottom of important subjects has
been investigating the relation between
the price of eggs and their nutritive
value, and the result is startling. 1t
seems that not only have we been get
ting our eggs too cheaply, but we have
never given the great American hen the
consideration that lis due her.
According to this unknown authority
eggs at three cents apiece are simply
dirt cheap, for there is as much food in
an egg as in live cents worth OF steak or
chops, leaving out the question OF waste,
Hence, instead OF hurling anathemus at
the hard working hen, we ought to ask
blessings on her for aifording us com
paratively cheap means of escape from
the clutches of the meat trust
A curious and little known fact about
the hen is that she absolutely refuses to
be organized into trust. 1t is an easy
thing for farmer to keep fifty or hun
dred hens, permitting them to roam at
large over the fields and barnyard. I'm
der such conditions she tolls faithfully
and produces her full quota of the gold
en- eggs Of commerce. But let the farm.
er be impclled by lust for gain to enter
the hcnery business on a wholesale plan.
1t seems reasonable to suppose that hen
coops could be built like skyscrapers,
each one housing thousand Of the in
dustrious birds. But the scheme will
not work for the hen is only relatively
gregarious and Immediately goes on a
strike when compelled to associate with
too many of her kind. Thus it is that
there is not and never will be univer-
sal hen syndicate to control the sources
OF the egg supply and regulate prices

Why do birds live so much longer
than mammals, which are often a hun
dred times their size? Possibly, among
other things. because they have beaks
instead of teeth. All carnivorous beasts
become weak and liable to starvation
as their teeth drop out or break. Nei-
ther are the herbivorous animals in
much better case. Old horses would
probably die of starvation If wild, for
their teeth would fail them; indeed, in
some stony countries old horses have
to be killed because their teeth are
worn away by cropping grass close to
the rock. Rodents constantly die from
injuries to teeth. But birds beak
neither wears out nor drops off, and
as it constantly swallows fresh grit to
aid in grinding food in the gi2zard

Reverting to the duties of n whip
tnd patronage secretary, II is an ne.
fonishing fact that gentlemen of birtn
and social position can be found to ill
the post. The Junior whips duties
are not only onerous, but irksome.
They sit or stand in the outer lobby
of the house from $3.50 TO 1890 at
night, and they ask every member who
passes where he is going, whether he
is paired and when he will be back
II he Is not paired, they have either
to find pair for him or TO prevent
him from passing out by coaxlng or
threats, the former for preference.
When their party are in. these gentle
men have to attend to their Office from
II TO 3. Their hours of duty are,
therefore, from IL n. m. to II p. M. or
thirteen hours, with intervals for
lunch, and this they do for f1,000 n
year. When their party is out, they
do It, minus their Office work, for moth
ing.
In addition to keeping an eye on his
juniors, the chief whip, who has t2,000
year, deals with the members on
their more touchy side. II is he who
practically distributes ribbons and
titles and sees that cards of invitation
are sent to this man and that; that no
one is given undue preference, deli

The most remarkable tree yet dis

Fierro, one Of the largest of the Canary
group. This island is so dry that not
even a rivulet is to be found within
its boundaries, yet there grows spe-
cles of tree, the leaves of which are
narrow and long and continue green
throughout the year. There is also a
constant cloud surrounding the tree,
which is condensed and, falling In
drops, keeps the cisterns placed under

natives of Pierro obtain water, and as
the supply is limited the population
must of necessity be limited also.

The Wonderful Bridge That Spans n
Canyon In Utah.

Writing about the colossal bridges of
Utah, w. W. Dyar says in the Century:
Across canyon measuring 33J feet
inches from wall to wall nature has
thrown splendid arch of solid sand
stone sixty feet thick In the central
part and forty feet wide, leaving un-
derneath II clear opening 35T feet In
perpendicular height. The lateral walls
of the arch rise perpendlcularly nearly
to the top of the bridge. when they
flare suddenly outward giving the ef-
feet of an immense coping or cornlce
overhanging the main structure fifteen
or twenty feet on each side and eX-
tending with the greatest regularity
and symmetry the whole length Of the
bridge. The majestic proportions of
this bridge may be partly realized by
few comparisons. Thus its height is
more than twice and its span more
than three times as great as those of
the famous natural bridge of Virginia.
Its buttresses are 11S feet farther
apart than those of the celebrated ma
sonry arch in the District of Columbia
known as Cabin John bridge. n few
miles from Washington city. which
has the greatest span of any masonry
bridge on this continent. This bridge
would overspan the capitol at Wash
ington and clear the top of the dome
by fifty-one feet. And If the loftiest
tree in the Calaveras grove of giant
sequolas in California stood in the bot
tom of the canyon its topmost bough
would lack thirty-two feet of reaching
the underside of the arch
This bridge is Of white or very light
sandstone, and, as in the case of the
Caroline, filaments of green and orange
tinted lichens run here and there over
the mighty buttresses and along the
sheltered crevlces under the lofty cor
nice, giving warmth and color to the
wonderful picture.
