FOR TRIFIINC ILLS
IMPORTANCE or soME kNoWLs
EDGE or MEDICINE.
Ailments Likely to Become Serious
Can BE Checked In Their inelpl-
sncy II Ono Understands How
to Deal with Case.

II is q good thing for at least one
member OF every family to have lit
tie knowledge of medicines, in case Of
emergency, and the information should
be acquired by one sufficiently inter.
ested to make some study Of the mat
ter. Some people regard minor all
ments as too trifling for any attention.
while others grant 90 much impor
tance to slight disturbances that there
Is eventually great waste Of time and
money. It would seem that some one
in family who would observe care
fully, storing valuable knowledge by
experience, and who would study trust
worthy sources, would prove to be an
indispensable comfort In the home.
She will know Just when the doctor Is
needed, and Just what to do without
him, or to assist, and In that knowl-
edge will show herself as praiseworthy
as thrifty housewife or matchless
cook.
There are 30 many emergencies for
which frail humanity must be pre-
pared that one short article could
scarcely begin the long list But the
following few suggestions may serve
as the first guide post on this particu-
lar path of research. Cause, preven-
tion and cure should be the systematic
divisions of this study. Colds" are
concerning good many households
Just now; IL is always 80 at the change
of seasons. Impure air Is a powerful
ally of this disease. 1t may be In
bedroom, schoolroom, a public hall,
q crowded drawing room. There Is
more illness caused by defective ven
tilation than by draughts. II one IL
exposed to the lattor, and yet Is warm
ly clad and moving briskly. there Is no
danger. The factor most potent In re-
sisting cold is a healthy circulation OF
blood; such q condition cannot exist
for moment without pure air.
Preventives of cold and its various
catarrhal conditions consist chiefly In
common sense, that rarest Of all vir-
tues. That means keeping the body
sturdy in all its vulnerable points-a
throat that is used to exposure. head
that often goes hatless, feet that may
get wet without harm (providing they
are reshod as soon as inactive), body
that never feels the cold when 1t Is
hurrying about in fresh air. The cure
Of colds is simple matter II begun In
time. The first signs Of cold should
be the signal for treatment.
Then there are such little trouble
some matters as nosebleed, earache.
infiamed eyes, mouth sores and the
large and various number Of Ills re-
sulting from fever and deep-rooted dis
ease. The amateur student of these
difficulties should not rely upon her
scrapbook when biding emergencies.
She should learn by heart her store of
wisdom, and above all things cultivate
good judgment.

IOHN SHARP WILLIAMS Of Missis-

leader in the house for the next two
years. With Williams as the leader
the Democrats will go along as they
have gone along under his leadership
in the past, rowing occasionally among
themselves and not infrequently get.
ting bitterly angry with their leader.

lowing the Mississippian as submis-

JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS TO
AGAIN LEAD DEMOCRATS

DeArmond concluded with extreme
wisdom, so opinion goes, not to con-
test the Democratic leadership with
John Sharp Williams of Mississippi.
Mr.. Desmond is grave. retiring and
taciturn However. he Is not at all
retiring when some one is needed on
the Democratic firing line. He won't
be the leader this year, and. though
probably his hopes are high. 1t seems
extremely likely that he won't be the
leader when the Mississippian retires
from the house two years hence.
John Sharp Williams, so 1t is said.
is bent on having two years in whick
to study and rest up before he
enters the United States senate. Sem
ator Moneys term does not expire
until 1911, when Representative Will
liams will take his place in the upper

Tenderloin and oysters, while max
ing a unique and distinctive dish, are
at the same time so simple to prepare
that the ability of the inexperienced
cook is not taxed, says the Delineator.

sauce are added, after which the un-
cut tenderloin steak is placed on top
of this mixture to simmer for about
an hour. 1t must be turned three or

How to Boil an Egg.

Most people drop an egg into boiling
water and let 1t cook steadily for three
minutes for a so-called soft-boiled
egg. The proper way to soft-boil an
egg is to remove the saucepan from the
fire when the water reaches boiling
point; drop the egg in at the moment
of removal, cover the saucepan and
leave the egg in the water for six
minutes. When there are two eggs let
them stay eight minutes. For medium
cooked, ten minutes are required, and
for hard-boiled half an hour.
