CATCHING COLD.
How It Can Be Done and How It May
Be Avoided,

CoryZa is an Inflammation of the
mucous membrane lining the cavities
of the nasal passages and may be eth
er of the acute or chronic variety. In
it's acute form it is generally called
"a cold in the head" The reason for
this is that, given conditions of the
system which tend to infiamed mucous
membrane, the acute attack can very
often be traced to exposure to cold,
draughts or damp. 1t can perhaps just
as often be traced to heat, dust and
STIFFNESS, but whatever may be the
final touch it is certain that the victim
of the coryza was in a condition in
which his powers of resistance were
reduced or he could not have caught
cold"
1t is of great Importance that those
people who spend many months of the
year travelling from one attack OF
coryza to another should learn just
where to place the blame for their
trouble. 1t is a pity to get into the
habit of blaming every open door or
window or dreading every unexpected
breath of air, because this only leads
to the course of life most to be avoid
ed. If a person finds himself with the
Catching cold" habit increasing WIN
ter by winter, depend upon it there is
something wrong and that something
is. not fresh air, because that is the
very thing he of all people most needs.
In such a case the daily habits should
be carefully overhauled.
Does the sufferer overeat, and espe-
cially does he take too much animal
food and too little exercise? This mis-
take is at the root of the coryza habit
in many cases. 1t is simply the sign
of rebellion on the part Of the over
loaded system. Often the trouble may
be traced to too much heavy clothing
to rooms kept too warm and to an at
mosphere dried up with steam heat
and no ventilation. People who sleep
in shut up, stuffy bedrooms ought to
live in a state of grateful surprise II
they do not have constant colds.
The change that can be produced in
the human constitution in this respect
by a continuous course of common
sense applied to daily life is almost
like miracle working. But the course
must be begun today and kept up at
least 365 days in the year. The cold
catcher must pay minute attention to
the digestive process. and Is probably
better off to eat meat not more than
once day at the most. His bedroom
window must stay open winter and
summer, not two inches, but all the
way open. He must accustom himself
to cold water bathing. This does not
necessarily mean ice water bathing. A
bath thermometer is a cheap purchase
and 65 degrees is cold enough for most
persons.
Deep, slow breathing with the mouth
closed should be constantly practised'
and never more faithfully than at the
moment when a cold seems to be in the
act of getting itself caught. t."-Youth's
Companion.

Some "Lepper."-With that keen
interest in athletics typical of the
Irish race the section gang was one
Sunday engaged in discussing that
subject, exploiting the performances of
certain athletes.

on his two feet and lepped over a
ditch thirty feet wide"

II knew a lad by the name of Kilduff
who went out huntin' in the wilds of
Afriky. He ran into bunch of can
naybals who made for him; droppin'
his gun, he shtarted to run, and run
he did for ten miles, with the cannay-
balls gainin' on him at livery shtep.
Unbeknownst to him he ran straight
up to a river that was a mile wide.
without shtoppin' he took mighty
leap and landed on the other side"

Look Before You Leap.

It Is a we'll known fact that many
otherwise sensible business men leap
before they look when 1t comes to
the matter Of buying life insurance.
This should not be the case, as this
one transaction Is by far the most i'm
portant from a business standpoint in
the lives of majority Of men. Some
men are inspired by a desire to favor
friend or relative. That class has
been advised by a noted insurance
expert not to help friends In this way
unless entirely convinced that the con-
tracts and companies represented by
them were, to say the least, the equal
of those of other agents, but instead
to buy the best policy in the best COM
pany, and If the buyer still desired to
help the friend or relative to make
him an outright donation ten or twen-
ty dollars, according to amount of in
surance desired. Recently Mr.. j. H.
Haskins, the Mutual Benefit agent at
Fort Gaines, Ga, along with the rep
resentatives of a number Of other good
companies, were competing for the ap-
plication of a prominent citizen who
was determined to look before he
leaped. Among the agents after the
business was a brother Of the prospec-
tive insurer. Mr.. Haskins showed
what the Mutual Benefit had to offer
and got the business, as all Mutual
Benefit agents do where there Is COM
petition or the insurer takes the trou-
BILE to investigate.

Cow Stable Notes.

1t is as easy to keep the COW stable
clean as to allow it to be dirty much
of the time. We notice that in some
stables the manure is removed only
once day. This is a bad practice, for
the air becomes perneated with
emanations from the manure. Clean
it away as soon as it drops, If you
work
In the large dairies engaged in the
production of high priced milk, the
manure is removed as soon as it is
dropped. The result is that the air
never becomes foul, and a blind man
passing through the stable would new
er suspect that he was passing through
dairy barn.
1t often takes more time and effort
to do a thing the wrong way than it
does to do it the right way. This ap-
plies to almost everything about the
dairy barn.
A dairyman engaged in the produc-
tion of certified milk says that he is
getting white-headed trying to get men
suitable to milk COWS and keep dairy
things as they should be kept. This is
condition that plays into the hands
of the farmer that has only a few
cows. His supply of help comes large
ly from his own family and is, there
fore reliable. When he makes up his
mind that he wants to, he can COM
pete successfully with the big dairy
company that is trying to produce
clean milk under adverse circum-
stances, so far as expert help is con-
cerned.
The platform where the cows stand
should be made so short that the
droppings fall into the trench behind
the cows. Their lying place will be
then clean at all times. The man
whose COWS go into the pasture in the
spring with dried manure plastering
their flanks has not yet learned how
easy it is to keep his cows clean.
The cows fanks and udder should
be washed before every milking.
whether the cows are dirty or not
The washing will prevent the dust
from being shaken into the milk. The
dust carries germs that hasten the
sourng of the milk. The dust itself
is partly the cast-off material from the
body, and this cast-off material is be-
ing constantly pushed away from the
skin of the COW. Then, too, the wash
ing keeps the loose hairs from falling
into the milk, and the spring is when
the cows hairs become loose.
There are too many dark cow sta
bles. They can be easily lightened.
The simplest way is to make the
present small windows large. The
windows behind the cows should be of
good size and placed at frequent in
tervals. Light and air coming in be-
hind the COWS will help to keep the
stable in a sanitary condition.
The old scheme of throwing the
manure out of little window behind
the COWS should be everywhere aban-
doned. The manure that is piled up In
the open air all winter is partly vast
ed by the sun, rain and wind. Make
other arrangements for the manure
accumulations and have them out or
sight, if possible. A cement-lined
manure receptacle will prove valuable

Commercial Feeding Stuffs.

In view of the great economic i'm
portance of proper feeding, it would
be difficult to ever estimate the ad-
vantage which would follow a better
understanding on the part of feeders
generally of even the elementary
principles which underlie the princi-
pal feeding of animals kept for vari-
Gus purposes. 1t is true, of course,
that much remains yet to be learned
concerning animal nutrition, but the
immense amount of research of the
most panstaking and accurate char
acter which has been carried out has
resulted in the recognition of certain
broad principles which are of the
highest practical value to the feeder,
whose interests demand the maxi
mum yield of productive labor from
work stock, and milk, flesh, ETC., from
other animals, in return for labor or
money expended for feeds.
The lack of positive information in
regard to all of the important respects
of animal nutrition is certainly not
sufficient justification of the attitude
of some so-called practical feeders
who prefer rule-o thumb methods,
developed in practice under a given
set of conditions and thought to be ap-
plicable generally, to the conclusions
of equally practicable and impartial
experimental studies of a scientific
character. The system Of state in
spection feeds which have been inau-
gurated during the last few years, be-
sides largely suppressing adulteration
and misbranding, have proven of the
greatest advantage in bringing pur-
chasers of feeds to inquire more care
fully than ever before into their COM
position and the use which the animal
body makes of the various nutrients
contained in them. The effect of these
laws is not one of their unimportant
benefits. Reputable dealers and intel
ligent purchasers naturally wish to-
secure the best feeds for the price
asked, and, as the value of stuff de-
pends upon its adaptability, palatabil-
ity, the amount and digestibility Of
nutrients it contained in 1t, both the
seller and the buyer are interested in
acquainting themselves with the chem
ical composition of the feeds offered
to them by manufacturers and in OBJ
tanning as much knowledge as possi-
BILE in regard to the digestibility Of
their valuable components, as we'll as
the palatability and adaptability in
general of all kinds of feeds.
Manufacturers are taking an in
creased interest in the preparation
and intelligent marketing Of their pro-
ducts, and competent and conscien-
tious statesmen may greatly assist buy
ers in purchasing feeding stuffs on the
proper basis and not merely by brand
name or the price. The increasing
necessity for accurate information in
regard to composition and value Of
feeds on the market must result In a
better business basis for the trade and
brief elementary discussion Of the
nutriments in feed and their function
in nutrition is appropriate in these
publications, giving the composition OF
all feeds sold in the state. Bulletin

An Awful Punishment.-A homely,
hard feateured, elderly temperance
speaker of the feminine persuasion in
the course of a lecture before a some
what mixed audience found occasion to
say:
Friends, as passed along the
street at an early hour this morning,

the ooze and slime of the gutter, a
poor. fallen, besotted fellowbeing. No
Good Samaritan came his way; the
passersby hurried on with merely a
curious glance and left him to his
shame. But as l paused beside him
as he lay the thought came to me
that. fallen as he was. that man had
perhaps a wife, a mother a sister,
who loved him. SO, kneeling, l brush

Finally Got to Fiehtins.-Bishop
Woodbridge of Kentucky was discuss
ing the southern mountaineers, among
whom he had lived and worked for
many years. The question of family
feuds was brought up and the bishop
related the following anecdote:
"A certain family had attended a
reunion which terminated in a free
for-all fight The offenders were TAX
en- before the local justice of the peace,
who questioned an old woman as to
the particulars of the fight. Her de-
scription was typical of the noun

bloodshed.

Buried In Secret.-Two ancient
kings were buried in secret. Attila,
king of the Huns, after his siege of
Rome, died in Hungary A. D., 453,
His soldiers, desirous Of giving their
great leader a right royal burial, in
closed his body first in a casket of
gold, this in one of silver and this
in one of lead, and transported 1t into
desert. There slaves were selected,
and under the direction of men who
were sworn to secrecy they dug the
grave of the dead monarch. When
this was done no traces Of the spot
we're left. The slaves were all cruelty
slain.
Alaric, king Of the Goths, the cele-
brated conqueror of Rome, died when
with his army at CoZenza, south Italy.
His men turned the course Of river,
inferred the body Of their sovereign
with much treasure, in its bed and
restored the stream to it's channel.
No man has ever lighted on the
resting place of either Of these kings.
