SPRAYS, GARGLES AND
INHALATION

There are number Of other ways OF
administering medicines besides swal-
lowing them. Some remedies arc APP
piled directly to the throat by garg-
ling, and to the nose and throat by
sprays. The throat may be cleaned
by gargling with solution of a tea
spoonful OF baking soda or common
salt in a glass of warm water. Nose
sprays should not be used except un-
der medical advice, snd it is well to
remember that if the mouth washes,
gargles and sprays advertised to be
disinfectants were really strong
enough to kill germs they would be
too harsh for common or continued
use. The nozzles of nose and throat
sprays should be boiled Immediately
after use. Children while they are

AN ELOQUENT LECTURE

Rabbi Abram Simon. of Wash
ington, one Of the distinguished
rabbis OF the jewish faith III this
country gave'a most interesting
lecture last night at the synagogue
on Washington Street. We have
seldom or never heard a clearer
exposition OF The duties OF citizen.
ship in this country, the moral and
ethical obligations incumbent on
every one, regardless OF creed,
and particularly the domestic du-
ties resting on every man and
woman in an American comlllu-
nifty. One sentence uttered by the
Rabbi deserves an inscription i'll
letters OF gold. He said, referring
to the Importance OF the family
as an institution, Remember,
that the cornerstone OF the Amer
lean Republic is the American
Home. Upon the preservation OF
its sanctity depends the safety Of
the nation!''
Rabbi Simon is one OF the elo-
quent and thoughtful leaders OF
the time, and we hope will favor
Alexandria again with one Of his
timely addresses.

seem to be a national issue.


We nlaun hae our doots. as
the Scotcllnlan said. about this ap-
parently ubiquitous tariff bill. 1t
grows on us more and more, how
ever, that the so-called Agrlcul-
tural Bloc in Congress may be
a very good thing for the farmers.
All the other interests OF the corln-
try employ the highest-class
brains available and pay accord
ingly, for protection at the nat,
ions capital. For the most part,
in the framing OF a tariff bill, its
a question OF save himself who
can, and the devil take the hinder,
most. So the widely scattered
farner-citizen has hitherto got
the axe in his cervical vertebrae.
But times change and we change
with them. Wherefore a bene-
hcent agricultural bloc III the

Inhalation or breathing in is anoth-
er method used to introduce drugs in
to the membranes of the nose, throat
and lungs. Smelling salts are used
i'll this manner to stimulate persons
when they. faint. They should not be
placed close to the nostrils nor used
at all when the patient is unconscious
Inhalation of steam is often used III
asthmas, Group and bronchitis. Spec
lai Group kettles are made for this
purpose, but an ordinary pitcher half
full Of boiling water may be laed in
stead. The patients head should be
held close over the pitcher, and towel
should be adjusted around the top
covering the patients nose and mouth,
but admitting just enough air for him
to breath. If drug is ordered 1t
should be added to the water.
Injunction, or rubbing a substance
into the skin, is Sometimes ordered
TOR delicate babies and children. Al
ter the skin of the abdomen has been
washed with warm soapy water and
thoroughly dried, the substance or
QeIeu, SclicIdllS OlIfe Oll VI Ioullrei
oil, should be applied by means Of a
circular movement of the palm of the
hand The Gil should be warm and
the rubbing continued until it is abb
sorbed.
Ointments are also applied by in
JUNCTION. A small quantity at time
should be rubbed in using a circular
motion. If an ointment is ordered to
be applied where the skin is broken,
it should be spread upon cause and
applied without friction. Liriments
are rubbed in, in the same way as
ointments. In many cases rubbing
accomplishes more than the ointment
or linlment itself SO that this part OF
the treatment must not be sighted.
Sometimes medicines are given
through the rectum For this purpose
they are combined with cocoa butter
or other material and made into small
cones called suppositories. They melt
at low temperature and should be
kept OF ice until needed. Suppose
tories should never be given without
the orders of a physician.

F0RDNEY TARIFF BILL

Sugar in the beet, the product
of the farm, is given a protec-
ton Of five per cent ad valorem
in the Fordncy Tariff Bill now
before Congress. Refined sugar,
the product of the beet sugar fac
tory, is protected with a specific
duty equivalent to more than
eighty per cent adj valorem on the
basis OF present prices.
Thus the Michigan sugar fac
tory receives protection that IS
practically prohibitive against the
importation Of the product Of the
Canadian factory, while the Mich.
igan farmer receives practically
no protection against the Cana
dian sugar beet. Representative
Fordney, if we mistake not, comes
from Michigan 1t is entirely per-
tinent to ask why he, should so
strcnuously protect the Michigan
manufacturerand SO mcascrlyand
incffectively, the Michigan far
mcr? We will assume that Mr..
Fordney is an honorable man, and
could therefore have no selfish
interest i'll legislatins generously
for the manufacturer and stlnglly
for the farmer. Nor does this
governmental protection seep
through the factory to the land.
For instance, the pre-war price OF
sugar bccts, with a tariff OF one
cent, was S5.57, while the present
price ranges from $500 to $3.50
d ton.
Again, very few farmers grow
wool, but all farmers wear
clothes. Yet the high tariff pro-
poncnts shout Tor protection to
American farm. Farmers wear
the clothes in midwinter that are
largely cotton and Shoddy, yet the
WOODEN manufacturer is given -
cents d pound protection on the
entire weight OF the farmers
clothing, OH the prepoStcrous sup
position that it is all wool. The
farmer pays all OF tie i cents
duty to the manufactured, and
the comparatively few wool grow
crs get about Is cents pound, as
a sop.
Furthermore. it would be inter-
estins to ask Mr.. Fordncy, who,
as stated. is probably all honorable
man. why he should SO favor the
United States manufacturer or
farming tools that the European
farmer. can buy all American
shovel Tor % cents while the
American farmer has 10 pay =
cents for the identical shovel.
General Hancock, once thG
Democratic nominee for preSident
OF the United States, declared the
Tariff to be a local issue. But

There's fact that you have noted,
if with reason you're imbued:
That most horrors reach their climax

But "The Reaper" CLEANED his har-
vest in "thc panic that ensued."

RADICAL REFORMERS
CLOSING SHOP

Apparently the open season for
radical agitators is just closed or
else their ilk is becoming extinct to
speakers who advocate everything
from price fixing to regulation and
monopl, and we even heard one man
expound the principles Of pure Soviet
ism-in other words, a man in para
site who does not work with his hands.
Brains are toboo; the state is sup
posed to have the excessive right to
furnish them. Wouldn't the state
have a big job though? Now such
radical with hatful of radical ideas
gets but feeble applause and is in
great danger Of getting his coat tails
dashed aside.
The farmer is pretty hard man to
stampede. He prefers to do his own
thinking and, generally speaking, he
wants to think things over before ne
gets strongly behind them. In fact,
this refusal to be herded by the poll
tician and the demagogue is the main
reason why cooperative enterprises
have grown so slowly. But if one can
Judge by the signs that seem unmis-
taxable, such cooperative movements
are bound to grow. Doing business
at cost would seem to be in line with
rho Tendency now generally mani
tested to dc the work Of the entire
