cal Education in the University Of
Pennsylvania, has helpful article on
the subject of colds and their cause,
containing simple instruction as to how
to avoid them, to save loss of time and
to cut the doctors bill.
In it he gives the following ways in
which you can take cold: BY the over.
eating of meat which causes poisons to
be absorbed into the blood, lowering
vital resistance, by bad teeth, which
allow the germs to collect in the cavi-
ties, waiting until the system is run
down, by diseased tonsils, whose crypts
and cavities also form breeding places
for germs, by physical fatigue, by the
use of alcohol and of drugs, by living
in overheated rooms and by breathing
bad air.

accidents in Wisconsin,

The word accident, as used in the
workmen's compensation law of Wis
consin, must be given a broad and in
elusive meaning says the Chicago Daily
News. So rules the Supreme court of
that state in the case of Bystrom Bros.
versus Eric Jacobson.
The case arose when a mason, in
lifting block, strained the muscles of
the right side of his body. The com
pany commended that this was not an
accident within the meaning of the
statute.
Justice Marshall delivered the opinion
of the court. He said that the English
and American authorities quite general
ly agree on the broad Interpretation of
terms in workmen's compensation laws
and that this court considers the legis-
lature intended broad Interpretation
of the word.

Another veteran has been mustered
out. Captain James H. Whitney was
born in Massachusetts but spent the
best years of his life beneath Wiscon-
sin skies. He was a true soldier,
ready to stand by principle and, if
necessary. ready to fight for cause
He was true worker in the church,
firm in his convictions and ready to
give helping hand. The Grand Army
of the Republic has known him as a
loyal supporter and the Methodist
church is better that he has labored in
is vineyard. In the Fortnightly Liter
ary club he has left rich and pleasant
memories and in fact the world is ad-
vanced that a man so upright, SO re-
igiously inclined, so steadfast, so
gentle, and 30 kind has lived and L.

Metz LiteraCg Test

The new literacy test proposed by
congress would deal more literally with
illiterates than those included in three
former bills vetoed because of the liter
acy feature. Under the new measure,
persons from countries whose laws
prohibit them from holding property
and exercising other rights as citizens
because of their religious beliefs,
would be exempt from the test. An
Immigrant not claiming exemption be-
cause of religious persecution would be
compelled to read from 80 to SO word

Too Much SnoU in Certain
Sections

In the upper Mississippi valley and
adjacent territory, more snow is upon
the ground than usual. This condition
also prevails in some sections of
Canada, the state of Washington and
elsewhere. The great mass of snow
will reduce the log output in forest sec
tions and this in turn will curtail the
capacity of the mills next season. In
Yellowstone park about 5000 elk and
1000 deer have been driven from the
mountains and are now being fed by
park officials near Gardiner This

We tread once more the old highways
Beneath the Southern sun.
With feeble step and arms sat will'',
No heart for song or jest,
The columns struggle on, until
They reach the promised rest.
How often at the days decline,
The scattered columns hear
The martial strains along the line,
So full of hope and cheer!
And even now comes to our ears
Some old familiar strain,
Heard long ago in peaceful years.
To make Us strong again.
Our fallen comrade never sought
The warriors wide renown,
But cheered with music those who
fought,
And gained the hero's crown.
And when the end of life is near
And we in turn shall fall,
May no tired soldier fail to hear
