who have been suffering from Hay Fever
and did not know what their trouble was,
that Drs Shores have decided to explain
tho symptoms. effects and treatment OF
Hay Fever. that all may tell 1t at
glance.
In tho beginning OF an attack OF Hay
Fever the patient experiences a sense OF
uneasiness about tho nasal passages.
with a slight disposition to sneeze Grad
ually these symptoms increase. and often
there is an intense itching of the nasal
passage, with a profuse watery discharge.
which necessitates the constant use OF
handkerchief In aggravated cases the
discharge drips continually from the
nose, later the mucous membrane be-
comes so congested that the secretions
present grayish color. The innamed
mucous membrane naturally causes more
OF. the nasal passages Which adds greatly
to the discomfort of the sufferer. often
times the nasal passages are entirely
II the patient lies on the side, the nasal
passage which is uppermost becomes
open EnS, whiO the LIQUID collects lt, IN the
the back and the flow passes TO rear por-
ton. causing a complete stoppage OF the
nasal passages. Tho fluids which escape
from the nose are often irritating around
the opening OF the nose and lip. and very
frequently give rise to irritation around
the nose and lip, and sometimes even re-
suit in eczema The eyes become con
gested and the lips red and itching. II
the disease is allowed TO run, an attack
OF asthma often sets in. The asthmatic
symptoms are usually confined TO the
night time. althoughs the waking hours
are often characterized by shortness OF
breathing. which the patient describes

NEAR Al GAS FAMINE.
New York Had narrow Escape I'm

New York Had a narrow Escape In
the 1902 strike.
Few householdeTs In New York city
who were buying coal during the great
strike Of 1902 VIII ever forget that
emergency. It was indeed a time to
try mems souls when no one knew
whether the price Ok coal would be-
come prohibitiye the next week or the
next month.
People were making all sorts OF ex-
periments with fuel-brlckg soaked in
Oh, compressed peat and other things
which had never been used for fuel be-
fore The coal men did their best to
husband the resources Of the city, but
as time went On they began to talk Of
refusing to sell 10 theaters and other
places Oh amusement and Of doing out
the remaining supply In such proper
tlons as 10 meet tile need Of All who
would actually suffer without coal and
let the loss fall On peuple who could
stand 1t 1t seemed as II the popula-
tlon we're about to be ranged In two
camps, the strikers and the struck, the
struck being, as usual the consumer.
In the memories OF New York gas
men there Is an interesting little chap
ter OF unwrHten history which has to
do with that strike 1t never even
happened TO get into the newspapers,
and no one suspected at the time how
near the great city was 10 one Of the
most terrible crises II has ever known.
At the time of the settlement of the
strike there was less than two weeks
supply OF coal in the possession of the
gas company and no more coal in sight
Two weeks more and 1t would have
been exhausted.
Four million people would have
found themselves facing an unusually
severe winter without an adequate
supply Of coal, without gas and with
the price Of oil and the price Of oil
stoves both higher than In ordinary
times
What Is more, the order went out to
close all sales departments where
ranges and gas appliances we're sold as
soon as the strike assumed threaten
ing aspect. The men In control OF the
gas plant realized that II the people
who had money to spare rushed to pur-
chase ranges and heaters of all kinds
and used gas altogether in their houses
there might not be sufficient supply
to see the city through the strike and
that every resource Of the company
must be carefully guarded against n
possible period Of actual famine. That
this care was justified is shown by the
fact above stated-that even with ev-
cry possible precaution the available
supply Of coal would have been made
to last only two weeks.--Gas Logic.

We was very much pleased at the
settlement when rattletrap buggy
drove up with man and girl. The
man said he was lookin' for a con
venient place for his daughter to open
q school and wished to know il
Scratchgravel wanted one. He added
that the settlement need not be at any
expense, since his daughter would ask
for tuition only what the parents felt
able TO give. We wanted a school
mighty bad, not that the children
needed parnin'. for there wasn't no
use for 1t at seratchgravel, but their
mothers liked to talk across lots with
one another, and the children bothered
'em while they was dom it. So the
schoolmarm was engaged, her father
drove away, and the children was kept
cooped up for i've hours a day while
their mothers was a-gossipin'
1t was about this time that the boss
stealth commenced Not that we
hadn't had boss steaIin'. We had.
But somehow the rascaIs had found a
way o. gittin' inside our corrals and
stampedin' the stock. We organized
watch, but as soon as we did the
boss stealth stopped We dropped the
watch, and it begun again. Then, the
watch beln' too hard on the men O. the
settlement, we took In the wimmen.
Nobody saw nofhin' till it come the
teachers turn, when the hull gang o.
boss thieves come down on us TO oncet,
and she lit after EN-, frin' at EN-.
and saved dozen bosses they had
Ioosed ready to run off
This made the schoolteacher mighty
popular, and, since she was good
looking gal with pink cheeks, several
o. the bachelors O the settlement want
ed to marry her. But she wouldn't
have none OF 'em. sayin' her heart was
with the dear little innocents she was
teachln. Another thing that lifted the
schoolmarm in our affections was that
she put us on to somep'n that we
didn't think OF before. She said that
some one was loosenin' the bosses and
the thieves would swoop down and
drive 'em off This some one must be
one OF US. we all looked at each other

If he wasn't suspicloned. 1t wouldn't
do to put any Of us on watch for fear
O. putin on the man that was doln'
the business. At last two or three Of
us got together and after talkin' the
matter over allowed we'd ask the
teacher to do a little detective work
to find out who the traitor was This
was natcherai, seein' she'd got on 10
the fact that there was traitor. She
said she'd keep her eye skinned for
him, but unless she could ketch him in
the act we wouldn't believe in bis
guilt. We swore we would and wait

While this was a-goin' on the rustiers
had got away with most o. the bosses.
Fact is there wasn't but half dozen
on EN- left In the hull settlement One
stormy night we heered d clatterin o.
hoofs and went out to try and save
the stock. The boss thieves had start
ed the huh lot OF 'em, but two had
got away and turned back. Ben Hath
away and me got saddles on to 'em
and lit out to try and save the other
four. We chased EN- purity lively and
was a-ketchin' up with 'cm when the
boss one OF 'em was ridin' struck a
deep mudhole and fell We was goin'
right on, but he stood in the middle o.
the road pumpln lead at us, and we
drew up. 1t was so dark we couldn't
see him, and he couldn't see US; there
fore he couldn't hit us nor we him,
Suddenly there was big fash o
lightnin' and there in the middle o
the road stood woman. But, though
the flash was only Instantaneous, both
OF us saw for the milIIonth part OF a
second, plain as at MONDAY, the school
marin.
Before we had a chance to say any
thing to each other there come another
fash, and three shots rung ont after
IL and before the thunder One o. 'em
was from the sehoolteacher and t'other
two was from me and Ben. We heer-
ed yell, and !, disinountin', give my
boss to Ben and walked to the mud
hole. / held my shootin' iron cooked
before me, for there was plenty OF
lightnin, and didn't want to git
plunked while lighted up By fash.
But the first real bright one that come
showed the woman layin' in heap
across the mudhole
My conscience troubled me for
shootin' a woman, even II she was in
league with boss thieves, and went
on, calm TO Ben at the same time to
come on, too, hopln' the gal might not
be dead and we could snve her life.
When we got to where she was she
groaned, and we knowed she WAS
alive. We couldn't do nothin for her
out there in the dark. so we put her
on one o. the horses, holdin her on.
and walked back TO the settlement.
When we got there everybody was
outside, some o. EN- with lanterns.
What do you suppose the gal had the
gall to do? she pointed to Ben and
me and gasped;
"These two done It, They looscned
the stock for the rustlerS"
Well, there we was convicted O. boss
stealth and had shot the gal that had
been watchin' lis.
The next mornin' airy we was both
taken under big tree and moose
throwed around our necks. They was
Just about TO swing us off when a
sheriff come dashin' into town lookin'
for kid Regan, the boy boss thief As
soon as be hearn O. the seheolteacher

by dyin' the same day. That's how
