membranes.
Other physicians disagree with this
view and believe the ailment Is con-
stitutional. To this the victims cry
out:
We'll, then, amend the Constitu.
1t would be the most popular amend:
ment ever adopted in this country and
would need no straw votes to sound out
sentiment for and against.
Seek the Sea Breeze
All the victims who have the price
and the time 60 to the seashore
or mountains, believing that salt air or
balsamy air will knock the everlasting
daylight out Of the hay-fever bug.
All men who have suspicious bulges
in their hip pockets do not shoot to
the lip from the hip with every draw.
The bulge Is caused by extra handker-
chiefs. Some hay feverites use a dozen
a day.
Medical research so far has been
unable to find any specific remedy that
is a sure cure for the disease. A few
remedies have been found helpful In
individual cases, but the ailment has
been known to skip year and then
return to torment the victim.
The fever usually continues until the
first touch of frost. So far as known,
no Eskimo ever has had the disease.

Stella had rushed downstairs screaming
Tommy shot Joseph"
Mrs. Commodeto ran upstairs and
found the boy with a bullet hole under
his right eye. The lad had been killed
instantly. She picked up the small
body and carried it five blocks to st.

told her the boy was dead she col

The two boys had gone to their
