But let's start at the beginning.
One finds that the volume of colds
goes up sharply beginning in September
and stays high through March, while
the lowest incidence is in July and
August.
The Public Health Service says that
the common cold is no respecter' of
persons and goes through household,
city, an entire State, and it attacks
all sorts and conditions of folk, young
and old, weak and strong. The latest
studies have shown that colds are about
equally divided between the sexes
It also has been found that among a
typical group there was an annual av-
erage of three attacks a person; and,
further, that there. was no consistent
relation Of the incidence of colds to
latitude, longitude or climate.
The findings indicate that there
is little natural immunity to a cold
and the husky member of COL
lege crew may have as many colds

from time to time by resignation"
OF Presidents who have worshiped
there, James Madison was the first,
and the famous Dolly Madison, Of
course. accompanied him. When she
died in her home where is now the
Cosmos Club, at Madison place and H
street NV. her funeral was held
from this church. Other Presidents
attending divine services here we're:
James Monroe, John Quincy Adams,
Andrew Jackson, Martin Van Buren,,
William Henry Harrison, John Tyler,
Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore,
James Buchanan and Chester A. Ar.
thur and Mr.. Wilson occasionally
crossed over Lafayette Square to be
present with Mrs. Wilson at st. Johns.
1t will also be recalled that Presi-
dent Lincoln worshiped at this church
the first Sunday after he arrived in
Washington for his Inauguration Of
March 4. 1861. He came to this
church attended only by Mr.. Seward,
entirely unheralded, and few were
aware of his presence. They sat in
pew number one, directly in front of
the chancel. and the Rev. Smith Pyns
automatically avoided any reference
to him from the pulpit and cautiously
selected his text. OF this event, The
Star said: Mr.. Lincoln was dressed
in plain black clothes, with black
Whiskers and hair well trimmed, and
was pronounced by such as recognized
him as different man entirely from
the hard-looking pictorial representa-
tons seen of him. Some Of the ladies
say he is almost good looking"
The late Albion K. Paris. who once
lived in that part of Washington
known to the early Washingtonian al
the first ward, where also resided DR..
Pyne. rector of st. Johns, says hs
was . good story-teller. and his home
was well appreciated by the gentle.
men Of the neighborhood, who greatly
enjoyed his wit, learning and hos.
pitality.
This was the first church in this
city to have a bell and a belfry, and
1t was the first bell, so it is said, used
in Washington to summon people to
worship.
The first rector of st. Johns was
the Rev. William H. Wilmer, who came
from Christ Church, Alexandria, Va,
with an annual salary of $500. to
be divided between him and his assist
ant, the Rev. Mr.. Hawley Rev. Will
mer was the grandfather of the famous
occulist. the late DR.. Wilmer of this
city, in whose honor s3,OO0,000 was
raised some years ago to create an
archaeological institute.

ceremony the invited guests attended
the bride and bridegroom to the resi-
dence of Secretary Endicott, where a
superb collation. was served. The
center of the table was fittingly gar
nfshed with an oval basket of Puritan
roses, and the brides cake was en-
circed with La France roses and topped
by knot of lilies Of the valley. Among
the gifts sent to the bride this morn
ing was huge wicker basket Of Eng
lish violets, white and purple. Upon
the handle were tied purple and white
ribbons and a knot Of violets and two
very curious orchids. Mrs. Allan Nc
Lane sent a basket Of La France roses
and maiden hair ferns"
When Joseph Chamberlain returned
with his bride to his home in Birming-
ham, England, he was deeply touched,
we are told, by the welcome which
met his bride and the proof given on
that occasion Of the affection with
which he was regarded by his fellow
countrymen.

concerning the value Of special diets
in cold prevention.
I ET'S suppose, as well we may. that
you have caught cold. What
is the best course Of treatment, as
indicated by the most advanced med
ical thought on the subject?
First of all, take yourself out Of cir
culation-remove yourself as much as
possible from others so that you won't
spread the contagion In doing so you
will at the same time be doing the best
possible thing for yourself, namely,
resting.
If you call your family physician he
will order you to bed so that you may
be kept warm and out Of drafts. Sim
pie remedies may be employed to re-
lieve aches and pains; and you will be
kept in bed about "a hours after the
fever has gone down, and, If necessary,
longer.
An excellent treatment Is hot tub
bath which may last from Is to 20
minutes. The bath will be soothing
and it will help the patient to sleep.
But care must be exercised against ex-
posure and chilling.
Combined with the bath to promote
perspiration, you may find hot drinks
made from orange, lemon, or grape
fruit valuable.
Because the common cold is so amaz-
ingly common, almost every one knows
host of sure fire" remedies. Lots
Of them are old wives tales, unsupport-
ed by any medical validity and perhaps
dangerous. For example, we all used
to think that the right thing to do
was to feed cold and starve fever"
Now science says that the fever patient
requires nutritious diet to keep up
his strength, while the cold patient
should have light, nourishing, and at
tractive food which will tempt him to
eat.
A brisk purge also has been consid-
cred an essential part Of the treatment
for Gold, but the. Public Health Service
disposes of that question by saying
that If at the outset of the cold the
bowels are normally active, the purHa.
tve nay b omitted"
