Physician's Ideas That May Be Worth Remembering. A physician gives these common sense health maxims: Have no faith in the popular notion that catarrhs and colds are due to cold weather. Most often they are the result of impure air breathed in badly, vontilated, overheated dwellings. Adi rondack guides, northern trappers or Klondike miners seldom have colds. The inference is obvious. Pay no attention to the idea that late suppers are injurious. The most I vigorous and healthiest of natives have eaten their principal meal at the close of the day's work. Let the brutes, guided unerringly by instinct, be our teachers. They eat heartily before going to sleep. In healthy per sons the stomach knows when it has appetite. It has a voice of its own. Disregard those who say night air is poisonous and advise you to shut tight the windows. The air without j is infinitely purer than that within. j Absence pf sunlight does not poison j it, else the millions who pass the night ? under the stars would soon perish. I But. they don't. Never be persuaded that bodily strength depends upon eating much flesh food. Meat yields fat, and fat is needed by the human system; but olive oil, nut food, milk and butter j wouid answer the purpose just as I well. J Finally it is prudent to bear in mind ; that alcoholic stimuiants are not in j dispensable in a cold climate; and j that missing a meal often saves a I sick man a doctor's bill and a course j of drugs.-New York Press, i ._;_ . ?

One of the old schoolmarms of Salis bury, .Mass., was Elizabeth Eastman, who received ten cents per day for tuition. An old bill for twenty-four weeks ($2.40), which was a deduction of twelve cents for absences, was found recently, dated 1824. lt was the custom in those days for pupils tc carry their fuel willi them and it war probably done in this case.

The response of Senator Reed Smoot, of Utah, to the charges made against him was presented to the Sen ate committee Saturday. It was agreed that at the regular meeting of the committee to be held next Saturday the attorney for Mr. Smoot and also for the petitioners should be heard. They will be expected to ehcw prece dents and authorities and after they shall heve made their presentation the committee will decide whether to go farther into the matter by calling witnesses or dispose of it on the show ing which will then have been made. Mr. Smoot submits in answer to charges against him the following: "This respondent is advised and avers that but two of the charges made against him in said protests, either directly or by implication, are such as, if true, could legally affect his right to hold his seat in the Senate. These two charges are: "1. That the respondent is a polyg amist. "2. That he is bound by some oath or obligation which is inconsistent with the oath required by the consti tution, which was administered to him before he took his seat as a Senator." Both these charges respondent de nies. As to the charges that he is a polygamist, the respondent says that he was married September 17, 1884, to Alpha May Eldridge. She is still his wife and is the mother of all his children. He has never had any other .'wife and has never cohabited with any other woman. "As to the charge that the respond ent is bound by some oath or obliga tion controlling his duty under his oath as a Senator, the respondent says that he has never taken such oath, or j in any way assumed any such obliga tion. He holds himself bound to obey .and uphold the constitution and laws of the United States, including the condition in reference to polygamy, upon which the State of Utah was ad mitted into the Union. "The respondent denies that he is one of said alleged self-perpetuating bodies of fifteen men, or that there is any such body of men, or that the fol lowers or members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, or any of.them, accord the right to said alleged body to claim supreme au thority, either divinely sanctioned or otherwise, to shape thc belief or con trol the conduct of those under them in all or any matters, civil or tem poral, or that said church or such al- ' leged body or any person or body ex ercises any authority or power to in culcate cr encourage aNbelief in the -..ii"?re of polygamy or belief in or practice of polygamy or belief in or p.actice of polygamous cohabitation, or that either countenances or con nives at any violation of the laws of the bcate of Utah or of the United States and this respondent for himself in particular denies that he is one of said alleged self-perpetuating body of fifteen men, or that there is any such body, or that said church or any part thereof or person therein inculcates or encourages u belief in the practice of polygamy or belief in or practice of polygamous cohabitation, and this re spondent denies that he is guilty of polygamous cohabitation, or that he is a polygamist, or that he ever has been a polygamist, or that he has ever practiced polygamous cohabitation." Mr. Smoot denied that he has ever connived at any, violation of any law | of Utah or of the United States, and declares that "since the manifesto of . President Wilford Woodruff was is sued in 1890, neither a "belief in, nor a practice of polygamy or polygamous cohabitation has either been taught or encouraged." The House was in session but 12 minutes Thursday. Mr. Hemenway, chairman of the committee on appro priations, obtained unanimous consent that that one hour be devoted at the opening of Friday's session to the con sideration of a bill amending the act appropriating $500,000 for the eradi cation of foot and mouth disease among cattle, so as to make $250,000 o? that amount available to meet the emergency caused by the Mexican hool weevil.
