Many Students Aided by AIumni's
Bureau.

From the opening Of the semester a
rash Of applications has surged upon
the students employment bureau at the
University of Wisconsin. Eliminating
the requests of students who merely
wished more pocket money, 300 calls
have been made by those seeking whole
or partial self support. OF these the
bureau has already filled nearly one
hundred requests.
The work of this department is popu-
lar with both students and employers.
The Alumni association now directs
this enterprise. The standard of ser
vice is kept high Only efficient work
ers are recommended for positions.
Consideration is given too to the needs
and legitimate demands of the employ
ment seekers.
or the 300 applications received 800
We're from freshmen. This is explained
by the fact that the freshmen, being
strange, must be aided in finding the
available places.

g airing For Colds.

( Heat Is responsible for more colds"
than cold. Colds are practically un-
known to arctic explorers and are un.
common to any outdoor workers who
/ don't offset the good effect of their out
door occupation by indoor coddling
The symptoms of cold are the
symptoms OF irritation of the air pas
sages. Dry, hot, stuffy indoor air is a
lot more irritating than cold, snappy
outdoor air. Fever is sign of germ
infection. Germs are always present in
the nose and throat and are as quick as
life insurance agent to take advan-
tage of conditions favorable to their
business.
Constipation, dust, exposure to others
infected. Overdry and overheated rooms
cars, depots, theaters, schools, ETC.,
cause more colds in week than the
draughts and wet feet do in year.
The nose was designed for filter in
let to the lungs. A filter or strainer
which actually filters becomes clogged.
Nature has provided an automatic sys-
tenn for cleansing this filter When the
membrane which lines the air passages
becomes irritated by dirt, germs, etc,
secretionais liberated which fushes
the nose. That explains the running
nose. Sneezing is a natural attempt
to forcefully expel the irritating and
harmful substances and excess moisture
from the nose.
Rational treatment and prevention of
colds does not go contrary to nature,
but attempts to assist natural processes.
When one first becomes conscious that
a cold is coming on the attack may
be cut short or entirely prevented by
proper measures. The bowels should
be freely open.
Gently washing the nasal passages
with a weak alkaline solution shortens
the natural process and is less annoying
10 wash the nose, soft rubber ear
syringe should be procured. A tumber
of fairly hot water, with pinch each
Of common salt and cooking soda, or
DOraX ADDED furnishes an easily home
made solution.
Great care is necessary that no harm
may be done to the ears by the forcible
Introduction of water into the tube
which leads from the ear to the nose.
The head should be inclined forward,
the mouth kept open, without strain,
but open. Be gentle. Nothing is gain
ears by forcing the pressure against re-
sistance. An occasional washing after
dust storms, railway journeys, etc, be-
fore cold develops, will show exactly
how the syringe should be used, and
furnish almost certain protection a
gainst an immediate attack.
