The Hot Air Cough.

Chronic bronchitis is the usual ex-
PLANTATION for the annually recurring
winter cough of the aged. Old age
is q state of mind primarily. and
preventable if taken in time. One of
the earlier warning signals OF the
approach of old age is the insidiously
growing fondness for place close TO
the fire a chimney corner nook and
other forms Of coddling. The metab-
olism slows down in elderly individu-
ais the combustion process or vital
fire laRguishes or smoiders. tn" syS-
tenn absorbs less oxygen and the in
divi6ual finds il more difhcult I"
keep nice and warm. In youth. when
the vital fire burns briskly and
metabolism is top hole. why, the only
problem 10 to keep cool and well; but
the old folk with lower speed OF
meta bolism. practice all sorts OF de-
ceptions and employ all sorts Of arti-
fees in'th attempt to keep warm
Now what really is the right oi
this? Do the old folks sit about and
avoid physical activity because they
are poorly" and haven't an active
circulation and can't stand the cold
weather? Or are these enfeeblements
due to the bad habits old folks ac-
quire OF sitting around and neglect
ing the opportunity 10 get their daily
oxygen on the hoof? Does the fire
burn low because the drast has been
shut off, or Is the draft closed because
the fire is burning low?
One of the most pernicious habits
or practices cultivated by folks with
the senile turn of mind is overheat-
ing the air of dwellings. When the
household temperature is maintained
at a point well above 6S dsSr""s.
Fahrenheit. unless some exceptionally
efficient method of moistening the
air is employed. the atmosphere be-
comes dryer than the parched air of
the desert and the delicate mucous
membrance of the breathing passages
can't endure such unnatural dryness
long without suffering damage. So
here you have the important predis-
posing factor of chronic bronchitis
and winter cough in a majority OF
cases.

TWO young girls. who were stdudy-
ing handicraft work and hoping
to make this practical branch
OF artistic work their profess
sion, were sauntering through the rooms
OF the art gallery in the National Mu-
scum the other afternoon. They had
come there primarily to view the truly
marvellous exhibition of handicraft col
lected from all over the United States,
under the auspices of the American
Federation of Arts. ON their way out
they had condescended to give more or
less cursory examination of the pictures
in the three collections loaned the gal
lery. to be placed on exhibition for a
limited time. SO that those mere mortals
not SO fortunate from a financial point
of view as the owners of the various
collections might have the opportunity
to view these works Of art.
Many noted English artists were rep
resented in the collection. Among them
Thomas Gainsborough. AS many people
know, Gainsborough was an unusual
genius, not only getting married at the
tender age of nineteen, but also setting
up as a portrait painter in Ipswich in
the same year. When only thirty-one
years old. he was generally acknowl-
edged as holding a leading position as
n portarit painter in Bath, the we'll
known British resort. 1t is stated that
of all Gainsborough's paintings. which
number over 800. 220 were portraits.
In spite of all these facts-doubt-
less because of considerable ignorance
in regard to them-these two young
girls placed themselves in front of
a charming portrait of a titled English
woman. Lady Rodney, to be exact, and
indulged in the delightful but destruc-
tive practice of pulling this master

every statement which she made and

The test is simple. How do we now
regard people who would dethrone
defunct traditions! Most Of US re-
gard them as dangerous fanatics,

our fathers were regarded in their

If we really wish to honor our

ENIPLOYES AT
 WASHINGTON HAVE SNAP

Washington.-One of the reforms in the interest of economy and et- fc.ency in the administration of pub. lie affairs which the present admin istration may jnaugurate consistent with its pledge to put more busi- ness into the government, is ar ln- crease in the length of :he working day for the government employees Tn Washington. At present the maxi mum working day for the govern ment employe iii Washington Is sey- eu and one-half hours. In practlcce, however, the major.ty of the depart ments and bureaus in Washington work only seven hours ] day.
 The seven and one-halt hour day for federal employees in Washington IS fixed by law and civil service regu- lations. When applicants for posi- tons under civil service file their application it is in the agrcemen: made on the part OI the government that they are to work not over sev- en and one-half hours q day. Gov ernment employees In Washington get Saturday afternoon or for l3 weeks during the summer months. This gives them a working schedule of 45 hours a week during the win ter months and g 41-hOur week schedule during the summer months.
 In addition to this, the employees are given thirty days vacation on full pay They are also given min imum of 15 days and a maximum of 30 days sick leave on full pay. The dilIerential is optional with the heads of the bureaus. It is the GUS tom for all government employees who have not used up their sick leave by actual sickness to add it to their vacation period so that at minimum government employees In Washington have 45 days away from the office on full pay In addi- ton to their Saturday half holiday during the summer.
 The distinction Is sharply drawn between government employees in Washington and government em- ployes located elsewhere in the Uni ted States. At points outside of Washington federal employees work eight hours a day and do not have other privileges accorded the Wash ington employe.

BETTER RELATIONS
 IN BRITISH TRADES

Londou-The trouble which seem ed probable in the British building trade over the demand of the em- blowers for an extension of hours has been averted by a compromise. A few weeks ago a reduction of two pence per hour became due under the cost-of-liying sliding scale. The employers then proposed. in view of the opposition to longer working hours, that the men should cooper ate in bringing down labor costs by accepting an additional reduction of two pence per hour for the higher paid men. that is. those in the big towns, three halC-peuCe for those re- ceiying medium rates and penny for the small miuo,ity of the lower paid men of the rural districts.
 After taking a ballot. the men have accepted this and the Joint Wages Council has agreed to stahil- ize the new conditions until March, 1923. The permanent reduction in wages which this arrangement Hf- fleets, should materially reduce the cost of dwelling houses in Great Britain. especially as the output Of the operatives is said to have Iu- creased since the establishment of better relations wish employers.

 LAST BOOZE

The recent embargo placed on the transmission of booze thru American territory by Collector of Customs J. c. Mcbride will affect the residents and visitors of the Yukon, which is tributary and dependent for It's thirst quenchers coming thru Skag- way. Heretofore this port and the cond tions peculiar to it have been excepted from the general principle as laid down in the law. But when the U. s. Supreme Court declared that no exceptions could be made, the Collector informed the men in Yukon that no further shipments of liquor would be allowed after June 18th. This will virtually force the Yukon to become dry after the large shipment now coming in on the Princess Louise is consumed And rumor has it that the shipment Is of considerable size-enough to Quench several parChed throats. But after that-well, why worry about something that will not worry the Yukoners until this shipment is gone?

CANADA's FLOURIsmNG TRADE

Canada is fast becoming a great trading nation. With a population barely exceeding s,000.OOO, Cana das yearly purchases from other countries are valued at $1,240, ,000,- 900, while she exports goods to the value of $1,2lO,OOO,OOO. Thus her total trade with the world amounts to S2,45O,OOO,OOO, or $272 per cap ita.
 The Uunited States trade per cap ita Is S125, or less than half that of Canada.
