On Pixies Peak.

tends to prevent catarrh. There are
Just as many cases in proportion to the
population west as east of the Missis-
Sippi, only the disease is not as severe
because of the climatic effect upon the
nerves.
Even on Pixies Peak. which is over
$4,000 feet above the sea level catarrh
seemed to attack several of the at
taches of the signal station located
there some years ago.
No place is exempt, no human soul is
immune from catarrh. Don't imagine

river that you can't have catarrh. or
that you have only chronic cold when

have not been bred for milk produc-

enough feed into milk to pay for
their upkeep. Every such COW as
this in a dairy herd decreases her
owners profits instead of increasing
them; and the owner is simply max

cow
Yet it is folly to blame the old COW.
She is doing the best she can for her
self; and it isn't her business to think

If she is living on his labor, the thing
for her is to go first to the fattening

CLUES RULE SUSTAINED.

"To dip or not to dip" has been a
burning question all week in social cir
cles. No, this was not a religious
question, but rested on whether the
Social Club should rescind it's rule and
permit the Boston Dip and kindred
dances at it's semi-monthly soirees.
The Club had a large meeting, Thurs
day night, and voted out all dances, ex-
cept waltz, two-step and schottische,
by vote of 20 to II. The floor mana
ger was given the privilege of appoint
ing a committee of three to assist him
in seeing that the rule is enforced.
1t is to be regretted that this or any
other question should arise to cause
any argument in the club, but it was
inevitable when the social trend every
where towards exaggerated forms OF
dancing is arousing all conservative
people to open disapproval.
Now, that a majority of the club
have decided against dipping, ETC., we
hope that the question is settled, ani
that no one will be so rude as to at
tempt to break the rules of the club.

\ NEWSPAPER TO THE RESCUE.
New York American-Press:

New York American-Press:
But one of the biggest steps forward
for any government in future has been
suggested and shown thoroughly prac-
ical and effective by Baltimore news
paper, the Sun, published by Chas. H.
Grasty. The Sun recently came to the
rescue of the city of Baltimore in
crisis when the municipality was in
eed of money and could not dispose of
a big bond issue.
The issuance of $5,50O,OOO of city
bonds in June had failed, due largely
to the tightness of money in Wall
Street. The city then offered the
bonds at 80, but still they attracted
few investors.
Then Chas. H. Grasty, publisher Of
the Sun, offered to sell a $4,000 block
of these 500 bonds over the counter
at his newspaper office. He made the
announcement in his paper. The inter.
est of small investors exceeded all ex-
pectations, and for ten days the Office
was crowded with purchasers of bonds
| in varying amounts Most of them
were women, many with market bas-
kets on their arms.
At the close of the sale the Sun had
sold $966,000 worth of the bonds in
stead of the originally planned $10,-
00O The city then withdrew its offer
to sell at 80, because large part Of
the issue had been sold, the interest
aroused by the newspaper campaign
having sent many small investors d.
rectly to the commissioners of finance.

ANIMALS THAT EAT THEIR
HEADS OFF.

The Progressive Farmer:
Every Progressive Farmer reader
has heard of such animals; most read
ers have seen such; some, we fear,
have owned such. Indeed, there are
many more such animals in the land
than most farmers think; and every
such animal-every horse, or cow, or
pig which does not do enough labor,
give enough milk, put on enough flesh
to pay for feed consumed and the
care received by it's positive in
jury to its owner. Let's look at a few
examples.
Some time ago Prof. ]. F. Duggal
wroet us about some farms on which
the mules worked only 65 days in {
