the nose, throat, lungs, stomach, bowels
or bladder. Cold aggravates Catarrh
and if allowed to become chronic it leads
to Bronchitis and also to Consumption.

They Don't Like Funerals.

"If you want to know Just how
sensitive some Washington folks are,
listen to the reasons some of our ten
ants give for canceling their leases"
said renting agent. Here are the
complaints from FIVE families who
want to move because they live on flu
neral streets A lot of people, It
seems, are sensitive about that. There
are certain streets In town-those near
churches where many funerals are held
and those leading to the various ceme-
terles-which are usually Travelled by
funeral parties. Houses In those
streets are becoming poor Investment.
There Is more moving from those
houses than from any others we have
anything to do with, and generally the
movers give as the reason for their dis
satisfaction the fact that the sight of
30 many hearses gets on their nerves."

The 9araaossans.

II Is said that the queer, composite
race Of people that dwell upon the
waterlogged hulks Of the Saragossa
sea, In the mid-Atlantic, have pretty
theory about death. They believe that
those to whom the messenger comes
when the sun is shining brightly are
transported straight away to heaven
Of warm fresh water only four feet in
depth, In which they may wade and
disport themselves to all eternity. On
the other hand, those who receive the
call Of death In hours OF darkness
must needs endure a probationary Pc
riod before they can enter into the
future life. The saragossans are in
addition firm believers In Fremont

wanted dog was taken very Ill. One
day when much better she told her
mother of her desire and begged her
to ask her grandpa to buy her one.
The mother answered that grandpa
did not like dogs and probably would
not be willing to buy one. Then, see-
ing the little invalid look sadly disap-
pointed, she said, "Well, wait till you
get well. my dear. then we will see."
"Oh. no." answered the child, whose

Castner last evening In describing his
trip up through the Mill creek oroh-
ards. 'This Is true mostly In ORCH
ards that have not been under Guilt

worst conditions we're found In the
older orchards that have been neglect

to supply the fruit for family con.

the trees have never been properly
pruned and have grown to as high as
30 feet, and 1t will be almost impos-
sible to drive out the pest. la these
cases | have recommended the des-
truotion OF the trees. The owners OF
the orchards are now anxious to put
their trees In healthy conditionsand
readily agree to the advice given
them. 1t is necessary to impress upon
the orchard owners the idea that the
work must be thoroughly done II done
at all as a spraying that does not
