suspended. furthermore, there is fire.
quently more or less disturbance Of dig
estion. and such disturbance is one of the
principal causes of a cold. To take food
under these circumstances is to hamper
the body and its organs in their work.
Consequently from the onset of cold
until it is practically overcome. no food
should be eaten except clear broths. fruits
and such vegetables as contain but little
starch.
Physical rest is another essential to
rapid recovery from cold. Spending
the first twenty-four hours of cold in
bed will reduce by half the length of the
attack. Whenever fever is present, and
in the aged and debilitated. such course
is the only safe one to follow. Don't try
to wear out cold; you will be the worse
for the wear.
In addition to the rest treatment, keep
the bowels well cleared out by taking a
saline laxative every morning an hour
before breakfast, or an enema of two
quarts of soapsuds every night before
retiring; get an abundance Of fresh air;
and drink plenty of water, using in the
water quarter Of lemon about every
three hours. BY following these sugges-
tions and adopting the rest plan OF treat
ment. cold may be brought to an end
in one-half of the time usually required,
and complications and bad after-effects

STILL MOVING ALONG
Sunshine City VIII Have to DO Some
to Keep in Our Class

The Pueblo Chieftain thus comments
upon the formation Of the Arkansas
Valley Baseball league, of which The
Enterprise had full report last week:
The lower part of the Arkansas val
ley again sets the pace for Pueblo.
This time it's in the field Of recreation
and sports. A meeting was held in La
Junta last Sunday when the Arkansas
Valley Baseball League was formed /.
with La Junta, Rocky Ford. Las Animas
and Lamar represented.
It's too bad Pueblo couldn't get in. too.
or course a city the size Of Pueblo should
be in the professional class. but il we
cannot get back into the Western
League, a good amateur league team
would afford goodly part Of our popu-
lation with little taste Of the greatest
American sport. And some Of these
amateur league teams travel at pretty
fast clip.
However. the action taken by the
down. valley towns only goes to
show once more how active they are to
keep on moving. We admire them and
their people for it and we praise once
more their spirit"

SUCKERS WILL MEET
Former Residents of Illinois Will
Hold Reunion on Lincoln's Birth
day, February IL, 1914


Acting upon the initiative of Judge
Minor a number of former lllinoisans
met in this city on last Saturday and ex-
pressed themselves as strongly in favor
of following the example of other states
and holding reunion when they might
get together and swap yarns of old
times in the Sucker" state.
A casual count of noses" was made
which showed that there were probably
more people in Otero county who hailed
from Illinois than from any other state in
the Union and it was believed that a
sufficient number of them would attend a
reunion as to break any state records
for similar gathering.
A temporary organization was effect
ed with the following officers:
Chairman-H. M. Minor
Secretary-L. E. Wise.
Executive Committee-A. c. Sloan,
Wiley Robertson and Int Stanley.
1t was decided that the first reunion
should be held on Linooln's birthday; that
residents of this county who formerly re-
sided in Illinois should be cordially invit-
ed to Join the society, and they are ask
ed to send in their names to the seore-
tary, giving the name of the county from
which they hail.

A COLD
How to Prevent 1t
and How to Cure 1t

A cold is much more serious dsordar
than is usually supposed. and it is always
an indication that the persons vital res
erve is low. and that the body's disease
resisting power is lowered to a point
where sickness is possible. Hence the
man that contracts cold is in condition
to contract any of the prevalent serious
diseases. A cold is Natures red-light
danger signal.
Contrary to the prevalent idea, cold
is not caused by exposure to a draft. A
cold is the result Of rundown condition
of the body. The factors which bring
about such disease favoring condition
are: First. and most important, too much
food and food so prepared as to be d.
gested with difficulty. The person who
is always taking cold" always eats i'm
properly.
Other causes of cold are insufficient
ventilation during the day or night, or
both, sluggish condition of the skin. due
to lack of proper daily care and to over
heating the skin with clothing. particularly
underwear that is too heavy. Overwork,
loss of sleep. sexual excesses and worry
also help to lower the persons disease
resisting power.
Through the operation of the above
causes, the body gets into condition to
contract a cold. and then cooling or over
| heating the body. looslng a nights sleep.
or eating an unusually hearty meal, will
bring on the attack. Any one of these
things may be the match that causes the
explosion. The contagious colds. the
germ colds. are brought about in the
same way. by the things that lower the
body's disease-resisting power.
The keynote in the successful treat
ment of colds is rest. Rest from food is
the most important Of all rest. During
the cold the body is busy readjusting its
conditions. the kidneys and liver are busy
destroying and carrying out the poisons Of
the disorder. While this health restoring
work is going on, digestion is practically
