Previous long term experiments per-

reduction in the frequency of colds from
279 per cent to 40.3 per cent was made.

SPAIN CHANGES BUDGET.
Extraordinary Items to Be Taken
From Ordinary Appropriations.

MADRID. Spain, November 8 Dr.
The council of ministers has de-
cided to abandon the extraordinary
budget beginning January /, 1880, and
to. include in the ordinary budget all
extraordinary items, including the
round-figure sums granted each
minister.
The public debt appropriation will be
taken out of the surplus, which now is
5000, 100000. Premier Primo de Rivera,
referring to this, said the government
was very happy to be able to do this,
and that "financiers of good faith
should really consider the country's
credit basis, its soundness, and its
valorization of our money"
