THE SNIFFLES.

30 doubt you've noticed that as soon
as cool weather comes and you light
the furnace fire and stay indoors as
much as possible. YOU at once become
subject to the sniffles.
1t is one of the great American
diseases-the sniffies. And not TO be
sneezed at. either; for. unless remedied
promptly, it is liable to lead TO all
ments more serious-catarrh, for one;
sometimes pneumonia; oftener tuber-
culosis.
What is the cause OF the sniffies?
There may be a variety of causes;
but "a prominent one is the drying out
of the atmosphere by artificial heat
The protective mucous lining OF your
nostrils requires a certain amount Of
moisture in the air YOU breathe. 9TH
eryyise il becomes dried and then ir-
ritated The swift change from the
over-heated indoors TO the cold out
doors increases the irritation; the
snifhes develops into a cold" and that
may go from bad to worse until you're
lucky TO escape the undertaken
OF course. the one big prevention Of
the snifhes is plenty OF exercise in the
omen air That enriches the blood and
strengthens nature in its battles
AGAINST the microbes. Another IS
plenty of fresh air inside the home
and especially in the bedroom.
But along with these admirable
safeguards YOU can wisely try a third;
Keep in each room an open jar con-
taining fresh water. It's evaporation
prevents the heated air from becoming
dry and harsh. protects the nasal pas
sages and puts a wholesome dampen-
er ON the snifnes.

narrow country roads, a ditch on one

How man moves
Only yesterday ago in mans ca
reer, James Rumsey ran steamboat
on the Potomac river. 1t had the un-
precedented speed OF four miles an
hour and people were quite dubious
about riding on it.
Only yesterday ago, New York
having given Fulton and his partner,
Livingston, a monopoly of steamboat
traffic on state waters, independent
folks travelled on boats on which the
machinery that turned the paddle
wheels was moved by six horses hitch
ed to a crank and walking round and
round in a circle on the deck.
Maybe your grandfather can re-
member when the Pennsylvania rail-
road climbed the Allegheny noun
tains by a series of inclined planes, or
when. by speeding up. it was possible
TO get a letter from New York to
washington in a day.
Only a yesterday ago, it took two
months for a messenger to reach us
with the news that our war with Eng
land had been concluded by a treaty
Of peace at Ghent. and a messenger
travelled for two weeks TO find and
notify a citizen that he had been elect
ed president Of the United States.

CAN THE MOOSE AND THE ELE-

The captains and majors of repub-
lican politics are fussing with re-
doubled energy over plans TO bring
the bull moose and the elephant to-
gether under one yoke.
They have agreed that the thing to
do is 20 cut the south-s undue repre-
sentauon. unload MILES. offer few
high places TO the seeding chieftains
and await the coming of brighter
days.
Nothing about principles Merely
a dicker 10 increase the chances of
their getting back into office.
Which would bee fine for the cap
tains and the majors if they could put
il across.

How are they to be won back Co a
fellowship IN which these reaction
aries viii continue 20 have the conn

Most OF these folks weren't primar-
ily office seekers Their main concern
wasn't to beat the democrats. IT
was 20 forward progressive policies.
The fact that they were willing TO
bolt the 6. %. T. proves that they
aren't worshippers of labels.
They want results
Results from the democratic party

SOUTH BEND, INDIANA. NOVEMBER Is. 1913

Alrsady their boiling has produced
results. 1t has installed in the white
house the ablest president since Lin
coin: one who is clean. fearless and
efficient 1t has revised the tariff
downward. il has led TO a definite
challenging Of the money power and
forced a lot OF its senatorial allies TO
show their hand. 1t has made sena-
tors elective. 1t has unseated Murphy
and begun the freeing OF New York
state
Probably none Of these things would
have happened had the reactOnaries
who gag-ruled the denomination of
Taft been allowed TO win at the polls.
Why. then. expect the boilers to
quit? To quit just when their work
is becoming most effective and inter-
esting?

elephant by the tail you can bet the
limit that we wouldn't choose this as

drop everything and do anything with
them at any moment. II was like a
glorihed dolls house built for the lit
tie visitors. And according TO the sea-
son they gathered fruits-raspberrie
apples. whatever grew. The Ferme
du Val was a fairy-land Of pleasure.
Also the chateau at Vicques with
three children in it was no convent.
That good boy Francois was forever
in mischief For instance. there was
the winters day when he got the
general into difficulty with the church
by brutally snowballing the bishop.
Il thought it was Marcelle," Fran
co.'s explained penitently. He
pranced just as Marcelle prances.
And l was hiding behind the door
with my ammunition-fiftee snow
balls my seigneur-big hard ones.
1t was twilight. so I could not see
plainly. I fire straight, my seigneur.
l gave him one in the neck. And one
on the head. and two in the back.
and one or two in the stomach when
he turned. l only missed once. And
also when he turned bowling, with
his hands out. / sent one into his
mouth before l saw, 1t is too bad it
was the bishop, my seigneur; but why
didn't he fight back?"
And the seigneur. scolding feroci-
ously. had a gleam in his eye which
lessened Francois sense of wrong-do-
ing. There was also an occasion
when, hearing the general give a long
order to Marcelle for the stable. Fran
co.'s went out hurriedly with a stout
cord and fastened ii where Marcelle
must go. And Marcelle, the prapcer
caught his foot and entered the stable
door like a comet and fell on Jules,
the groom. in his orbit-On Jules car
rying a bucket Of water: and Jules
and the water and Marcelle ricochet-
ted in a thousand-legged tangle into
Coq's stall; where Coz. being angry
let forth a neigh and a kick together
one OF which broke the innocent
Jules arm. So that Francois. stating
the case to the general. was con-
demned to do the groom's work till
the arm was cured. The days were
not monotonous at the chateau of
VicQues. They were not all work and
no play TO the three very human chill
dren living there.
So with work and play life rolled
rapidly. and suddenly life was all
changed. A governess was coming
for Alike. and Francois and Pietro
were going away TO the great military
school Of Saint-Cyre, near Paris
