fngs too frequently when he feels
cold coming on.
20. Also cut your food supply in
two and let your diet be as near
liquid one as possible, with no can
dies or desserts, and drink a glass
of hot water-or cold if you prefer
it-every hour. DO it night and
day, all the time you are awake.
"The secret of success in this
treatment is to begin with the first
symptom of cold or i'll feeling and
pursue the treatment thoroughly
for two or three days." the writer
says. 1T is my personal belief
that this treatment will cure any
case of cold ofany sort, either from
chill, ETC., or infection, if it is be-
gun quickly enough and pursued
thoroughly"
We should think the patient
would be cured after two or three
days of such heroic treatment-if
he survived-bnt we suspect the
average mans preference would be
to give hospitable entertainment to
the cold.
Think of drinking a glass ofshot
water every hoar, when in'the good
old times, one was cuddled up in
blankets, with feet in hot water,
and given hot Scotch with spice
and other things nice in it. The
old treatment may not be. as reffec4
tive as the new, but the patient al
ways was sure itserved the purpose
thoroughly, and imagination goes
q long ways as a curative agent at
times. Knoxville Sentinel.

OLD AND NEW CURE.

This- being the season for colds,
ID grippe and other more or less
fashionable ailments, the doctors
of every description and degree,
volunteer and otherwise, are pre-
scribing treatments and remedies,
all of which are no doubt good for
some folks and will do no harm for
anyone to try, if they serve no
good. Here, for instance, is the
treatment of well-known writer
in the Nautilus for breaking up
cold:
Il. AT the first sign of cold
take good dose of two of good
earthartic, epson salts, for instance.
20. AT the same time begin to
gargle the throat frequently. Eve
teaspoonfuls Of peroxide of hydro
gen or dioxygen to two or three
teaspoonful Of water will do for
this garle. Reserve about one tea
spoonfulofth the mixture and another
teaspoonful Of water and snuff up
the nose. Lfthis is strong enough
to smart the nose, then add little
more water. Nothing kills germs
like peroxide of hydrogen or diexy-
gen. Many physicians say that a
solution of salt and water will kill
the germs Jnst as q1ickly. So it
you have not peroxide or dioxygen
st hand use strong salt water for a
gargle and weaken it a little to
snuff up the nose. Z believe one
can not nse these gargles and snuff

The Clinton Heights Baptist
Church of Topeka is little strug-
Cling mission church. A mortgage
of $500 and other liabilities made
the total debt between $500 and
$500. Plans were made for an
every-member canvass the Sunday
following the recent Laymen's
Missionary Convention. The can
vassers started out to get $500, and
got 1885, which puts the little
church even with the world and a
little more. One Of the officials
said undoubtedly the convention
contributed largely to the success
of the canvass.

Billions In Checks.

The great bulk of all payments IN
this country involve debit on the
books of bank. Mostly they are made
by means of check, which Is charged
to the drawers account. Recorded
clearings of bank checks last year
amounted to hundred and eighty-Odd
billion dollars. But, as we mentioned
little while ago, clearings involve
only those checks that are deposited III
some bank other than the one upon
which they are drawn, and in cltleS
large enough to maintain clearing
house associations. n
An investigation by Bradstreets IL
III cities indicates that total pans
debts are two and half times tne
amount of clearings. This would lmpN,
that payments made last year through
banks in cities large enough TO mains
tain clearing house associations were
nearly $500,000,000O00, the SATURDAY
Evening Post observes. Add 70 tna'
payments in lesser cities and to"nsl

admiringly. He clasps the throttle with
faith in it. But he doesn't jerk 1t, or
pull it recklessly. He presses it Slightly,
some way, and the muscles in his arms
contract gently, and the steam Kisses a
bit, and the great wheels start to turn
as gently as if child were turning
them. They revolve little faster, and
q little faster, and the train is undei
full speed with never jolt or jerk.
Well, that's exactly the way we ought
