lifted up; be who helps others on the

y Beginning like an ordinary cold

" symptoms are very depressing to
" patients, who often become very

y The disease was first described

u mer and early fall. There is
Y type Of the disease which Is also
" prevalent in the spring, while In
y the southern states the affection
y occurs all the year round.
~ The disease is caused by the
y action of pollen Of certain plants
y which is carried by the winds
u and finds lodgment in the nos
y trils Of persons who are particu-
y larry sensitive to this affection.
y The plant which is the chief Of

~ mon ragweed This weed, which
y grows to the height Of one to five
y feet and blooms from August to
" October or later, can be found on
y almost every vacant lot and neg
" lected field, on the roadsides
" and in uncultivated gardens and
y lawns. Its pollen is abundant
" and is readily distributed by the
" wind. From public health
" standpoint, therefore, such nox-
y ious weeds are nuisance and a
y menace. Only recently Philadel-
y phia approved the following rul-
y ing of the board of health which
y appertains to this very subject:
y Weeds, noxious and poisonous
y plants, docks, tall grass and 9th
y err offensive vegetable growths
y shall not be permitted to attain
y height of more than one foot
y on grounds surrounding dwell
y ings, two family dwellings, room
y ing houses, tenement houses or
y unimproved or unoccupied lands
- in any portion of the city of Phil
y adlephia laid out in city blocks,
- provided that this regulation
y shall not apply to lands under
y cultivation with growing crops"
- The best method of graduating
y hay fever weeds is the cultiva-
y ton Of neglected grounds, but
" where this is not feasible the
y dangerous weeds should be up
y rooted or cut down before the
v Towering stage. This prevents
y the formation Of pollen and the
y production of the seeds.

SAVING GASOLINE.

How Autoists Can Economic on Their

A writer in the Farm and Fireside
says:
"Since the high cost Of living has be.
gun seriously to include the price OF
gasoline have been seeking to devise
ways and means by which a greater
mileage can be obtained. A few Of my
experiments have proved SO successful
that will give them for the benefit OF
other motorists.
If one will remember to leave the
cut-out open when coasting along un'
dulating country roads the engine may
be cut off completely without fear OF
bursting the mufler. The slight exer.

"Driving on pavement and city

shutting off the engine half block or
more before the stopping place Is reach.
ed. It is quite unnecessary and harm
full as well to tax the motor with gas,
only to jam on the brakes at the curb a
moment later. The natural impetus of
the car will carry it much farther than
one realizes.
"A strong spark may be employed to
strengthen the motive power Of the
gasoline. Inexperienced drivers too
often leave their spark lever below it's
point Of highest efficiency, thereby over
heating the motor and reducing the
speed value Of the open throttle.
Through these and similar simple
devices I am getting an average Of sly

ly Effectively.
Every once in awhile we read or hear
Of somebody who took poison acct
dentally, mistaking the contents Of the
bottle for some harmless remedy. In
a recent issue of the Popular Science
Monthly there is described a method,
simple and practical, to safeguard such
mishaps. ~ A thin glass tube with a
cork at the end is inserted in the neck
Of the bottle, and the usual cork is
bored to admit the passage of the
other end of the tube. The tube there
fore has a cork at either end When
the cork that closes the bottle Is with.
drawn it forces the tube with the 9TH
er cork upward and serves as a warn
ing to stop and examine the contents,
and If there is an attempt to draw
liquids from the bottle the lower cork
will drop into the neck Of the bottle
and prevent it. When the contents of
the bottle are to be used purposely the
tube Is pushed inward, thus forcing
the cork up out of the way.
