NEWS OF MINERS.

Illinois coal operators decided to re-
ject the miners demands for increased
wages. A strike may follow In April.
The coal operators and railroads
have begun gathering an enormous
supply of fuel in anticipation OF a
strike April l.
Miners and operators may call on
President Roosevelt to mediate in the
wage dispute and thus avoid a strike.
Coal railroad men and mine opera
tors met in New York to make plans
TO combat the threatened mine strike
which. with millions of tons of fuel
now stored, they are ready to wei
come.
President Dolan, of the Pittsbure
district miners union. refused de.
mand for his resignation on account
OF voting with operators in recent
wage-scsle conference.
The coal trust faces an attack in

Throw Away the Array Of Medicines
and Have Houssksspsr Study Me-
dicinal Qualities Of Foods.

Is 1t not surprising. when we see
90 many around us hopeless dyspep-
tics. that It does not occur to them to
study for themselves the causes Of
their troubles and the curative effects
OF carefully and intellisently cooked
food?
Such persons usually live in an en-
yironment Of bottles and pill boxes
which too often form the principal Or
nameats on the mantlepiece. There
they stand staring them in the face, a
constant reminder OF their wretched
condition. causing them to look at the
world through jaundiced eyes. Some
how for them the world goes backward
or as has been ftly said: Whatever
IL, Is wrong" Why we do not study
more the value of foods and their
medicinal qualities. The many Ills
that flesh is heir to vanish before well
regulated diet, and strict punctuality
in the matter of having meals served.
i Fresh air and exercise are the two
most valuable tonics, and can be had
for less than a Doctors prescription.
These stimulate the appetite and are
best taken In the morning.
Rheumatism ia now largely treated
by simply drinking water. not ice
water. filtered carefully and boiled ten
minutes by the clock. Meat contains
four essential elements-muscula
fiber, albumen. fat and juice. The
cooking of 1t facilitates the action OF
the digestive fluids and we are told
'the savors developed in this process
have a decidedly favorable influence
ON the secretion of the gastric juice
which corrects the hurtful qualities ex.
listing in its raw state"
Avoid fat as II is indigestible, for
the reason that the gastric juices, such
an important factor in our daily lives
has no action in it. This is the rea.
son fried foods are so unwholesome
The fat acts as varnish and prevents
the gastric juices from performing
| their mission.
In roasting. let the meat be put be-
fore hot fire for few moments and
then draw it back a little. This hard
ems the outside sufficiently to prevent
the escape Of the juices so necessary
to our health. In broiling a steak Il
is best to have the edges come be-
yond the griiiron. Tin this way, being
exposed to the fire they become equally
cooked.-El.zabeth Pyewell.

FOR THE HOME DOCTOR.
Mistake to Pull Clothes Over Chill
dren's Faces-List of Many Ways
to Stop Hiccoughing.

Bad ventilation deforms most chill
dren and destroys more health than ac-
cident or plague. There Is reason to
believe that not few Of the scrofu-
lous diseases common among children
proceed from the ignorant habit Of
being put to sleep in beds and peram-
buiators with the head under the bel
clothing, and so inhale air already
breathed and further contaminated by
exhalation from the skin. Madam
said doctor to woman, you are
smothering the life out OF your child's
lungs How would you like to drink
the water you wash in? Well, when
you cover the baby's head up you forca
him to use air that is Just as bad and
just as impure"
Cure of Hiccough.-Hiccough usually
attacks persons of nervous tempera-
ment. and young children who have
overloaded the stomach; 1t may
also be induced by eating foods which
have been too highly seasoned. A va
riety Of means have been suggested
to stop hiccoughs, among the mos,
eficacious being the following: 1t Is
recommended to distract the attention
of the persons who are seized with
the paroxysm; they are advised to
count the flies on the ceiling, etc.;
sometimes an attempt is made to
brighten or surprise them, and II this
is successful the hiccough is stopped.
Another of the means adopted is to
hold the breath, either by counting up
to 80, or by repeating loudly and with
volubility the same sentence; or, what
is much better, in drinking a glass
Of cold water in little sips, at the same
time pirching the nostrils. A good
thing is to provoke sneezing 1T,
either by tickling the inside of the
nose or by the aid of snuff; IL a
sneeze If induced, the hiccough Is ut
once arrested The most useful remedy
to employ, and perhaps the most inof-
fensive and the best, consists in suck
ing a piece of sugar which has pro-
viously been stepped In vinegar, or
drinking spoonful of good vinegar In
which some sugar has been dissolved.
II this IL not at once successful, a Sec
ond spoonful is certain to be so.--
