by WALTER EDWARD HARRIS,
WASHINGTON, d. c., February g.
Although Senators and Represcn IN tiyos
have voted themselves an increase In
salary OF $4,000 q year. there Is every
reason to believe that few, If any Of
them, Will profit by the additional
money they Will draw from the Treas
ury. The salary Increase Will be re-
CURED to meet the increased cost Of
living in the national capital.
In word, instead or lettering them
selves, the members Of Congress have
made 1t possible for the hotels, restau-
rants, caterers, etc, Of Washington to
grow more rich ut the expense of the
government. Already members living
at hotels and apartment houses have
been notified that rates will DO raised

Healthy Mucous Membranes.

Those who are fortunate enough to
have perfectly healthy mucous mem
branes ordinarily do not catch tho grip.
The mucous membranes lining the
nose, throat and lungs. when in nor
NAL state, are an effectual barrier against
the invasion OF grip.
But ii there happens to be the slight
est catarrhal arrangement OF tho mu-
cous membranes. then tho victim be-
comes an easier prey to the grip.
This in part explains why some people
get the grip, while others do not.
The, rational thing to do is to keep the
system free from catarrh. In attempt
ing to do this most people have found
Peruna to be Invaluable.

To Cure Smoking Lamps.

Sometimes a lamp will smoke with
out any apparent cause and make the
chimney so soi1ed that it must be
cleaned every day to make it present
able. The oil is sometimes at fault,
and for this reason it is best to buy
the best grade than can be procured.
If the burner has been in use some
time. it is best to remove it from the
lamp and give it a good scalding in
pearline suds. It is not necessary for
it to be boiled, as that is liable to
change the color of the brass, and
make more work to polish and restore
the color. Give the burner a good
brushing with a stiff brush, being care
full to clean Out the air passage at the
side of the tube with a pin or small
wire. If this is stopped up no air can
get to the oil and the lamp will be
sure to smoke.
If the wick is discolored with the
dust from the oil, it is necessary to
Dol it in pearline suds and rinse we'll
before usng again. Either old or new
wicks are improved by Soaking in
strong vinegar and drying before put
ting into the lamp.

The Misuse of Salt.

There is scarcely a paper in which
we do not see, from time to time, some
suggestion about bathing the eyes in
a weak solution of salt water. Water
not only is injurious, but the salt is
irritating The very best opticians de-
clare that salt sprays for the eyes are
injurious and result in the eyes be-
coming bloodshot. Never rub the
eyelids with the gloved hand, since
many of the colors are set with poison
