MINNEAPOLIS.

Minneapolis Wheat was strong and in
clined to advance, and while the opening
trading was on lower range than Mon
day it was hard matter to hold prices
down. ST. Louis sold her stock of hard
wheat to go to Minneapolis. There was
not much of it to sell nor is it possible
for any considerable quantity to accumu-
late. Winter wheat continues coming in
here very freely. The mills of the North
west are still buying and much more win
ter wheat will come in here later on This
be looked at. Receipts, 294 cars

The Penn's Grove record., 1904-12-09

Congressman Bourke Cochran intro
duced a bill in Congress On Monday
which provides for appointing a com
mission to investigate the expenditures
of money by parties at all elections.
Something should be done in that line
as our national elections are becoming
little more than quadrennial auctions,
like the last elections held in the Ro-
man republic before it's fall. When
twenty millions of dollars are available
for the election of a President by a par
ty whose strength exists on the grant
ing of special privileges, an advocate of
the peoples cause has little show. The
elections in England are not as corrupt
as in the United States, and candidates
have to give an account of their ex-
penditures.

Preventives of Pneumonia.

The sensational announcements with
regard to the infectious character Of
pneumonia should not cause alarm,
since the dread disegse has always
been with us. Some seasons it is
more virulent than others, for which a
cause is pointed out by DR.. Anders, a
well known authority on climatology.
In a recent paper on pneumonia he
says:
The coincidence of existing low tenn
peratures, high baf6metric pressuret~the
direction and velocity of the winds and
maximum mortality from pneumonia is
30 uniformly constant as to merit serious
consideration and suggest a close and d.
rect relation between their combined in
huence and the progress of mortality
from pneumonia.
He adds that the major influence ex-
erted by the weather is not direct, but
indirect, in consequence Of closed doors
and windows and the lack Of free ven
tlation. This causes concentration and
an increased virulence Of the specific
poisons already in the system. I'm
munity from pneumonia, then, is a
matter Of sanitation. In this respect
the doctor thinks the Japanese are
ahead of the western peoples. He says:
The fundamental condition of the health
OF the Japanese lies far back of all the
contribution of occidental civilization and
is wholly indigenous to this remarkable
people. 1t consists in the national habit
Of living in the fresh air h sunshine.
Every hygienist knows and breaches that
almost the sole cause of tuberculosis and
pneumonia Is the Ill ventilation and i'm
pure air of our houses. They are house
diseases. Many others are In part or.
indirectly due to the same cause.-Fef-
sonal uncleanliress of body Is also a con-
~tributing source of morbid mischief
against which the best of our western ma
tons must also fight a long war. The
Japanese have plenty of fresh air and
light in their houses.
While pneumonia may be fed by i'm
pure air indoors, 1t is without doubt
often brought on by unsuitable dress
worn out of doors, more particularly
during high winter winds. A wrap
which is suitable in extremely cold
weather when there is little wind may
be unsuitable during a heavy wind
when the cold is not 70 intense. A
heavy wrap which is not closed in
front is often less Of a protection for
the chest from the penetrating wind
than a lighter garment worn closed up
to the neck. People inclined to lung
troubles are usually very sensitive to
cold about the chest, and -carelessness
in the matter Of warm clothing or at
least wind proof wraps often invites a
cold in the chest which keeps the pa
tent in the house, where the air may
be conducive to the progress Of the
trouble, and the end is pneumonia.

Courage and Highwaymen.

A 'holdup man. or highwayman in
giving the public his opinion about
the methods of his kind and the ways
OF victims when assailed may be taken
at his word when he says that want of
courage on the part of the average cit
lien is the cause of so many success
full robberies. 1t is true that robbers
and other crooks are physical towards
as a rule. Their mode Of life is not
Of a kind to make heroes Of them.
They are ever on their guard and eve
more Dr. less nervous What gives them
courage in the first place is the fact
that they expect an easy triumph,
since the victim is to be surprised and
taken unawares. The robbers mask
and his gun are depended upon to
frighten, and the work is done SO
quickly that the victim has no time to
summon courage. The confessing rob-
Der is surely Boosting when he says
that with a mask and a gun he could
make a roomful of men, as they ave
age, stand on their heads If he told
them to do SO. There will almost al
ways be some cool head in a crowd, for
company gives courage. If a robber
be met at the outset with the frmness
which should characterize a man who
is being outraged upon the public high
way the chances are that he will lose
the little nerve he possesses. He will
be the one taken unawares and, being
in the wrong and an outlaw, cannot
fall back upon a reserve of manhood
and make a good fight. An easy pub
lie breeds the crook. He does not want
to work hard for his plumber or he
wouldn't be q crook.

The fellow engaged in getting
out catalogues for rural routes
will probably be around this
way soon. He calls upon mer.
chants to get an ad for his cata-
logue, claiming the rural route
patrons will boycott those who
refuse to advertise in the cata-
logue. Of course he gets the

reuters 10 the department

mail order business. 1t is a
slick trick and comes in just

who are always throwing their
m oney away on such advertis-
ing schemes.-Centralia Guard.
