JAPANESE AGENCIES ARE

method generally followed is to charge
a fee of the first weeks wages to the
Jap that obtains employment through
the agency. And the fee system WORKS
both ways, for there is charge
against the person hunting for help
as well as against the man or woman
seeking employment. Thus if SER
want is put into place which pays
five dollars a week, the first week s
wages goes to the employment agency,
while a charge of from one to two dol
lars is made to the employer.
The greatest mystery is as to where
the demand originates which the null
titude of employment agencies supply.

cides TO leave suddenly always has the

How careful We ought to be to prevent

be to get rid of it, is Il matter for serious
reflection.
Colds may he contracted by temporary
exposure. such as sitting in a draft, wear
lug insufficient clothing, insufticiently pro.
tected feet, going from a warm room into
ling, getting feet wet The trouble may
manifest itself in any part of the body
but generally affects the head.
The symptoms Of cold in the head are
too well known to need description, a.
few of us have not experienced them, such
rs disagreeable feeling in the nose Ia
burning or prickly sensation), fullness
in the head, sneezing. a partial if not
complete stoppage of the nasal tract
frontal headache, deafness, ringing in the
ears and temporary loss of the sense OF
taste and smell.
The principal diseases arising from tax.
ing cold are pneumonia, consumption,
chronic catarrh, and are as a rule brought
on by inhaling the disease germs into the
head, where they lodge until a cold is
contracted, the mucous membrane then
becomes a splendid field to propagate the
germ, and consequently the disease has
its foothoid. To prevent this has been
the study of Mr.. S. II. Meadows, a drug.
gtst Of Milwaukee, since 1882. who has
given much time and attention in prepar.
ing scientific combination of antiseptic
and Germicidal drugs which, applied ia

development of the disease germ, if MOI
