COLDS

The subject of colds is of universal
interest, by reason of their widespread
prevalence. It is quite common, when
one is the subject of a simple coryza.
to dismiss it with the fiippant remark,
1T is only a little cold" but the more
experienced are prone to comment on
the long train of disastrous results that
may follow a simple cold
In this they are ably seconded by the
average medical practitioner who some
times, with a view of magnifying his
office, will vividly depict the host of
bronchial and pulmonary troubles that
may follow in it's wake. We are not
belittling the Importance of cold, or
the danger that may result from neg
lecting it, but the layman and fire.
quently the physician fall into the err
ror of treating the cold as an entity
by suppressing the symptoms by which
it is manifested, instead of treating the
condition that induced it.
Colds are invariably the result of a
congested condition of the system. This
congestion may be produced in various
ways; for instance, food that is has
tily eaten, without being properly mas
ticated, is a potent cause. The undi-
gested residue passes into the intes-
tines, clogging them and tending to-
ward a general stagnation of function.
about by an injudicious combination
of foods, which, to a certain degree,
antagonize one another and retard or
arrest digestion.
Overeating, combined with imperfect
elimination of the waste products of di-
gestion, are the two causes that are
mainly responsible for the colds that
are so prevalent.
1t seems thar common sense is insult
ficient to prompt the average indi-
vidual to take ordinary precautions to
ward off colds, with their frequent dis
tressing aftermath in the form of la
grippe, pneumonia, pleurisy, etc. We
need a campaign of education to teach
the people that colds are preventable.
The Dredisposition to colds Is the
lowered power of resistance induced
by error or neglect the exciting cause
may be one of many, such as
draught suddenly going from heated
room, or exposure to a lowered tenn
perature without sufficient exercise to
keep the blood in motion, but it is safe
to say that not one of the exciting
causes mentioned would have any i'll
effects If the body was in the condi-
tion that nature intended it to be main
tained in; that is, free from all waste
and surplus matter, in other words,
free from congestion.
The best proof that can be advanced
as to the harmlessness of cold air as
a producer of colds is to be found in
the experiences of all arctic travellers.
in the frozen north colds are abso-
lutely unknown. This is undoubtedly
due to the fact that combustion is al
ways highly active and that conse-
quently congestion from accumulation

EYES ARE MORE THAN LEARNING

Slips bearing the following ins rp-
tion and attached to all text books
used in the Chicago public schools
are one of the means adopted by the
Chicago school authorit es to promote
the health of the children: "YoIr
eyes are worth more to you than any
book. Your safety and success in life
depend on your eyes; therefore take
care of them. Always hold your head
up when you read. Hold your book
fourteen inches from your face. Be
sure that the light is clear and good.
Never read in a bad light. Never
read with the sun shining dire t'y on
the book Never face the light in
reading. Let the light come from be
hind or over your left shoulder Avoid
books or papers printed indist nctly
or in small type Rest your eyes by
looking away from the hook every
few moments. Cleanse your eyes
night and morning with p re water
If more of this kind of advice were
put on the inside of our text books
the results would be salutary.

A TRIBUTE.

Our neighbors in Idaho are
disputing with Utah as to the
measure of progress. And they
have a reason for it, for Idaho is
swiftly becoming one great gar
den. Her claim is that she has
more agricultural land and more
water to irrigate that land with
than any other state in the great
basin, and that she is putting
that land under cultivation faster
than any other state. And she
is right. And what she produces
is perfect. 1t is true that in a
very few years she will have
more land under tillage than
either the great states of New
York or Pennsylvania; she will
raise more and better fruit than
any eastern state, and her mines
will supply enough gold and
silver to keep perfectly reinforc-
ed her currency. She will sell
her products at home for home
money, in that way her crops
will be converted into imperish-
able treasure.
She is keeping her schools at
the height of efficiency, her eli
mate makes of the state a great
sanitarium, which insures as
healthy a race of men and women
and children as blesses the earth.
And they are a clear-brained,
level-headed, patriotic people.
Why should not Idaho hail the
new year joyously, and with ex-
ultant hearts turn from the tri-
umphs of 1909 to the expectant
triumphs of 191O?-Goodwin's
Weekly.

FRIDAY, JAN. IA, 1910.

President Taft has seen fit to
remove Clifford Pinchott from his
position as chief of the forestry
bureau. Whether the presidents
act will be conducive of benefit
to the country at large remains
to be seen. We doubt it. Mr..
Pinchott's policies have brought
down on him all kinds of calumny
and abuse. He has been called
"a bureaucrat and many other I'M
dignified names, but few have
dared to question his honesty of
purpose. Having been reared in
luxury and not being acquainted
with all details of the poorer
classes he may have made mis-
takes in the management of his
official duties, but who would
have been faultless in his posi-
ton. One thing is certain, Gift
ford Pinchott has had the
strength to do what he believed
to be right and for the ultimate
welfare of his country regardless
of what the moneyed powers
thought about it and in spite of
their great opposition. He has
been Instrumental in keeping the
timber hogs, the water power
hogs, the range hogs, and many
smaller specimens of the genus
porker, from gorging themselves
at the peoples expense and for
these things he has the sincere
thanks of the citizens of his
country. Even though removed
IN apparent disgrace, he has the
satisfaction of knowing that he
fought a great fight against
great odds and won a no incon-
siderable victory before being
removed from office. 1t is a
credit to his ability and manhood
that he lasted as long as he did
when confronted by such over
covering interests. 1t would be
expecting too much to ask his
to follow in his foot
steps.

Milwaukee, June 10.--Ad Wolgast's first
fight since he took the lightweight cham
picnship from Battling Nelson on the
coast, February % last, failed unfortun-
ately. lie fought 10 rounds with Jack
Redmond os Milwaukee in the same ring
where he got his start 10 the champion
ship.
In the fourth round Wolgast injured his
left arm or one of Redmonds elbows and
in the seventh he snapped a bone in the
forearm about three inches above the
wrist. Up to the time of the mishap he
had good lead, but he did not work
fast except when occasion demanded He
was cool and judged distance finely, and
worked short jabs to the body in cham
p.onshir form. but from the seventh out
he was practically helpless, and If Red
mond had had any steam and could have
planted with sufficient force he might
have been declared the winner The gen
eral newspaper decision will give the fight
to Wolgast because of his big lead in
the earlier rounds.

baseball fever is prevalent here good and
proper this season, and the business men
are supporting the team we'll, and the
boys are playing fine ball The team is
greatly strengthened from what 1t was
last season, and they are playing scientific
