CLAN Il ular Fever.


This is the name of an acute febrile
disease in childhood, one of the group
to which belongs scarlet fever, measles
and humps. 1t differs from measles
and other eruptive fevers in that there
Is no rash, the local manifestation be-
neck. about and below the angle Of
the jaw.
The disease is not of common occur
renee; and this Is rather curious, for
1t seems to be eminently contagious.
all the members of the household, at
least all under ii or Is years, being
affected when once the fever gets into
a house. Children are the ones who
suffer chiefly. infants in arms or very
young children. Adults or those above
Is years are not often attacked.
The attack begins suddenly, usually
a week or less after exposure to the
contagion. with fever. sickness at the
stomach or actual vomiting coated
tongue, constipation and a stiff neck.
The appetite Is gone and swallowing
IS painful. Any attempt to move the
child's head causes pain and is strong
ly resisted. Pressure on the side OF
the neck from the angle OF the Jaw
to the Adams apple is usually also
painful.
The fever rises gradually for two
or three days. reaching its highest
point about the third day. At this
time also the enlargement of the
glands of the neck becomes manifest
TO sight and touch.
The enlargement may be on both
sides, but appears more often, per-
haps. on the left side first, runs It's
course there and then begins on the
right. 1t Is usually also more severe
on the left side.
The disease lasts week or ten days
as rule. but may be prolonged to
two weeks by successive crops Of
glandular engagements.
There Is no real eruption. although
sometimes the flush of the fever NAV
take on a dusky red hue and simulate
rash
The fever continues so long as the
swelling Of the glands persists, and
after its subsistence the little patient
is usually weak and pale for a time.
Glandular fever is almost never IA
tai. but IL may make the child pretty
sick while 1t lasts The treatment Is
simple. The patient should be kept
in bed in a well ventilated room as
long as the fever lasts; and when
the disease is over he will need good
food, lots of fresh air and possibly
tonic to overcome the anemia and
debility.-Youth's Companion.

Personal Battle Experiencex.

We lay at Lee & GOrdOnS mill. on
Chickamauga Creek, Sept 10, 1863,
few rods above the mill. We knew
the Confederate troops were not more
than three-fourths of a mile distant
from our front. They were scheming
to turn our flank ard get in our rear,
cutting us off from Chattanooga.
The battle began on our left, and we
could hear coIAinuous firing. We were

Sectional Issue Hard to Raise.

Governor John A. Johnson of Min.
nesota INDUCED in an unshackled
flight of fancy when he told an audi.
ence at the laska-Yukon-Pacific Ex-
position that the West was 'shackled"
to the East. and advised the people
of the States from Minnesota to
Washington to rise in their might and
break the odious bonds of eastern de.
pendence. Most of his hearers must
have been surprised at the news that
they are wearing irons forged east
of the Mississippi.
Governor Johnson wishes, apparent
ly, to raise a new sectional issue. Blu.
he has CHOSEN a group OF States to
work on in which sectionalism is next
to impossible to preach, because those
States are themselves estranged and
divided in their material and political
interests. Minnesota, Iowa. Nebraska
and North Dakota have little in COM
mon with the States of the Rocky
Mountain group. They are in the
main treeless, well titled and without

they simply dispersed. That was all
there was to it.
So far from desiring to take charge
of the government, or turn 1t into a
military despotism, the old soldiers
hated the very thought Of war for
wars sake. The Grand Army of the
Republic, which was organized some
years after the close of the rebellion,
through the efforts of DR.. B. F. Ste
phenson, had a hard time getting
started, because of this fact. But the
G. A. R. had a reason for being. and
II gradually won its way into the
hearts of the old soldiers. who began
at length to appreciate the society
which took up the work of preserving
the memory Of the heroic dead, and
assisting needy living comrades
We owe the reverential observance
of Memorial Day largely to the influ-
ence and example of the G. A. r. The
day. at first devoted merely to the
placing of flowers on the graves of
the dead, has widened into a great
historical holiday. even superseding

G. A. r. will leave Memorial day as it's

The tariff bill should have had the
vote of every Republican, says the
Des Moines Capital. When a political
party is charged with responsibility
and action has been taken by large
majority of the party. there is no
longer room for dissent. The lapse
of time will demonstrate that those
Republicans who voted against the
Aldrich-Payne bill made a mistake,
provided political organizations are to
be continued and provided that po-
litical parties are to be governed by
majorities. Every member of a po-
litical party has the right to fight for
his individual views up to the time
the party has taken action Then he
should surrender his views to those
OF his party. III no other way can
political organizations be kept up.
The Democratic party never recovered
from the conditions in relation to the
adoption of the Wilson-Gorman tariff
bill in 1893. If the present Congress
had followed the lead of the insur-
gents and had beaten the Aldrich-
Payne bill, as a consequence the Re-
publican party would have lost the
next House of Representatives and the
presidency in 1912. These are gospel
facts. Parties are not maintained by
those who refuse to abide by the YER
diet VI the majority. Individual pc
litical strength may be thus obtained.
but party strength never comes from
that direction. The insurgents from
Nebraska. which is a close state, late
ly gone Democratic, realize these facts
and the Senators from that state voted
for the tariff measure on its final pas
sage The Republican party is strong,
however. and allows great freedom Of
thought and of action.

Send PACKAGES EARLY

As usual the postal service and
the express companies will be flood I'd
with Christmas packages from now
until that festive day, but it is dur
ing Christmas week that the great
rush is on. It is always "a proper
thing to suggest that the Christmas
packages be sent in plenty of time.
An. sender surely wants them t.
arrive in time for opening on Christ
mas morning along with the
rest of the presents. Otherwise they
would be greatly disappointed and
might feel that the proper attention
was not given to- handling their pack
ages, failing to grasp the fact that
their consignment to the vast wave
of such packages that sweep the
country from end to end would be
as a drop of water to Lake Detroit.
All packages ''look alike" to- the en-
plOyes of both the express compan-
les and postal service. There is no
discrimination. Your package wild
leave in company with hundreds of
others and these becomes thousands
before the end Of the journey is
reached. So there's no use to kick
if you send it late.
Far better send it early 1T would
surely be better to have it arrive a
day or two ahead of time than ia day
or two late. When the hands of the
clock point to 1901 on the morning
of December 26, Christmas is over,
and anything that comes after that
time, while it will without doubt be
appreciated, will seem about as
