THE attempt on the life of Mayor
Gaynor has given a number OF the
English papers a longed-for chance to
inyeiph against Mr.. Roosevelt and his
Guildhall speech, and to lken the at
tempted assassination of the mayor to
the killing of Premier Boutros Pasha,
of Egypt, whose murder led Mr.. Roose-
welt in his Guildhall speech to question
the capacity of England's rule III
Egypt. The assassination OF Boutros
Pasha is paralleled by the attempted
assassination Of Mayor Gaynor, " the
London Evening Star says. VIII
Roosevelt dare TO propose the dis
reimbursement of New York city or the
forcible dissolution of Tammany Hall!
He should do 50 to be consistent with
his recommendations regarding Eng
llsh rule in Egypt. We hope the
crime will bring home 70 Roosevelt the
folly of his incursions into others af-
fairs" According to the London
Globe, "the Gaynor case is the usual
result of the breaking up of an extreme
bureaucratic government. 1t warns
England to heed the lesson against per-
hitting ofiicialdom to secure such a
grip on the public as is unbreakablc
without resources to violence. With
out exception the British press speaks
in the highest praise of Mayor Gaynor
and expresses the greatest sympathy
and solicitude for HIM.

Remedies for ChiIblain.

Dear Miss Doom:
Kindly tell me what is good for chill
blaines, as my feet bother me. And
oblige, A CONSTANT READER.
Here are several remedies you can
try for chilblains. although they are
hard to cure. They may often be pre-
vented by a little care. One precaution
is do not step Oh rugs or carpet in the
bare feet. When the feet are very cold
it Will surely cause chilblains to come
in and place them near a stove or
radiator. Patent leather shoes are bad
for persons who are troubled with chill
blains. AS a remedy, take a piece Of
alum, put it on top of the stove and
allow it to melt. After it has melted 1t
should be the size of a twenty-five
cent piece, only thicker. Put this into
two quarts of hot water n place the
feet in the water as hot as 1t can be
borne, and allow them to- remain until
the water is cold. Other remedies
suggested are to battle the feet In coal
oil, to rub on them lemon Juice, allow
ing it to dry on the feet. Still another
is to freeze a raw potato. cut 1t and
rub the feet with 1t.
