Doctor Calls
Catching Cold
A DeIuSiOn

New York. Sept l5.-Forget about
this catching cold idea now that the
chill days Of autumn are nigh, for II Is
only kind OF phobia. Details of how
to forget It are set forth by DR., William
A. Brady OF Elmira. N T.. in con-
tribution TO the Medical Record Of this
week. as
Those who get up sneezing from a
place between two open windows are
told that drafts are as likely to be any
where else and that, anyway. they do
not hurt anyone.
This catching cold bogie." contin-
ued DR.. Brady, proves most deplor-
able obstacle to prevent the eradica-
tion Of disease. And the responsibility
for the well nigh univeraI worship Of
this false image rests largely on our
own shoulders. since the stupid habit
Of taking cold prevails as largely
among the physicians as the laity.
Our medical ancestors we're willing
victims Of the cold delusions. because
1t served them to account for an APP
palling amount Of otherwise mystefi-
GUS illness. So it only was natural
that they should have fostered the
catching cold idea so fondly to hand It
down to US veritable lemon among
the fruits Of the forefathers' medical
lore
Dr. Brady said that there is no need
to become SO alarmed about the drafts,
for there can be no free circulation 81
air without them, and he presented
diagrams showing how, with the patent
boards attached to windows to prevent
drafts, currents carrying influenza bac-
teria get at mankind by swinging
around an arc OF air circles.
Summing up, he declared, a cold has
no relation whatever to respiratory
disease: that clean drafts not only are
harmless, but that the phrase catch
ing cold is meaningless, and that the
groundless fear of cold. fostered by the
misleading phrase, constitutes form
OF hysteria, which opposes Ordinary
curative measures,

WORLDS HIGHEST
NORTHERN PEAK
Description Of Mount Mckinley
Fairbanks Expedition Scaled.
STANDS 10000 FEET HIGH.

Called Traleika by AIeuts Before
White Men Saw It---Named Mckinley
by w. A. Dickey-Side Lights on the
Expedition That Reached the Top.
Mount Mckinley, which has recently
been scaled by an expedition sent from
Fairbanks, Alaska, and commanded
by Tom Lloyd. stands In the center of
a great Alaskan wilderness, 10000 feet
high, in latitude 63 degrees, longitude
151 degrees west, forming the apex of
a great watershed.
AS Mount Mckinley lies only $50
miles from the arctic circle it is by
far the highest northern peak in the
world.
Before the white man came the
mountain was called Traleika by the
Aleuts, and weird stories have come
down through the centuries telling of
mighty eruptions and clouds of smoke
and flame that came from Traleika's
head. There Is no scientific proof
however. to bear out these legends.
Named Mckinley by w. A. Dickey.
1t was in 1898 that the "gol0 rush"
brought Americans into the Alaskan
range. and, while Bolshoy is visible
from Cook inlet, $50 miles away, no
white man had seen the mountain at

Under the leadership Of Mrs. Ed

Allegheny society, the real society Of
Greater Pittsburg, formed a close cor
poration the other day for the purpose
OF insisting that their husbands wear
a wedding ring for the purpose Of
keeping them from flirting.

not flirt with married men," said Mrs.
Cavanaugh, III these young girls

token OF their being married, and we
hope the custom will become uni

close range. In 1898 w. A. Dickey
crossed over from the Copper river
country and, with the wonderful cour-
age and indomitable will Of the Amer
ican prospector, launched a frail craft
on the treacherous waters of the SUI
shitna river
His journey down the river to the
sea took him past the southern foot
hills of the Alaskan range. Seeing
Bolshoy for the first time, he named
it Mount Mckinley and estimated its
height with remarkable accuracy at
10000 feet.
The leader of the Fairbanks expedi-
ton was Tom Lloyd. He set out with
William r. Taylor, Charles McGonigle.
Robert Horn, Charles e. Davidson and
William Lloyd. Davidson is an expe-
rienced civil engineer. He, with Nc
Gonigle. undertook before the expedi-
ton started on its ascent to survey the
mountain from the base in order to
discover what was the most likely
means of ascent
The men who put up the money for
the expedition were William McPhee
and August Peterson Of Fairbanks.
They also put up 5000, to be forfeited
In case no member of the expedition
reached the summit by July A. The
party left Fairbanks Dec. %, 1909. 1t
was preceded by Peter Anderson, who
started some weeks before It to estab-
lish a camp in the Mount Mckinley
territory. Tom Lloyd at the moment
he left did not intend to begin the final
climb until some time In May.
Decided to Use Cooks Maps.
The Cook controversy was still hot
when the party left Fairbanks, and 1t
was intended to find out whether the
summit showed any evidences Of DR..
Cooks visit. The members determined
also to try to use his maps.
By the middle of February Lloyd
and his party reached height Of 12,-
600 feet. Tom Dalton, the messenger
whom Lloyd sent back from there, re-
ported that the chief of the expedition
had found conditions SO favorable that
he had decided to press on immediate
~ without returning to Fairbanks. as
his original plans contemplated.
The scheme as laid out was to es-
tablish string of camps along the
route. Lloyd thought that there was
no advantage In taking the risk Of
hot dash for the summit. He had a
camp at Moose creek, called Spruce
cabin: another about ten miles from
the base camp. another at the 5000
foot level and fourth 1900 feet up
the mountain.
Dalton said that Lloyd had reported
to him that the crust was SO firm, so
vastly better than he expected when
he started out. that he would press on
forthwith The party was already en-
gagged In packing its provisions and
