Ko Use For Local Paper. Mexico Ledger says: One of these people who never have any use for local papers died in Audrain county last year. His preacher, after saying all the good things about him he could, had an obituary published in ihe Ledger about him, which took at least $5 worth of good advertising space, and wishing to return good for evil, we made no charge for the same. The next day the son of the deceased (who had no use for local papers either) called and wanted 12 copies of tha Ledger containing tha obituary. He started out of the 'ffl e without even saying thank you. On bing in formed that the dozen papers, un(?er the circumstances, ought to be worth fifty cent3, he s iid: "I don't belit-ve I j want them." Such is life. In this i case, and in most all othercases where j newspapers are treated in this manner it is the fault of the newspaper man agement. We should have charged full rate for the beautiful and touch ing obituary, then probauly the value of the local paper would have beea more highly appreciated. A I'ailroMd. , A.prnpos:JionJiaa. been ma.de .by. J. Russell Jones, now in New V"ork, thaD if the right-of-way can be'procured for a railroad to connect Goldendale with The Dalles, that some capitalists; whom be represents, will have the lint surveyed, and if the route is practicable, will huil I the road. Ii is expected this ro;ite will follow that of the sur vey of the Ljlo railroad as far Centerville, then run in a southerly direction to The Dalles mountain, climb ng it on a gradual grade and crossing the same where The Dalles road reaches the summit; then de scending in a westerly direction, mak ing a turn on the G. W. Smith rlaee, and then to The Dalles. We believe, a very good route can be found, but a road will never be built to The Dalies nntil her citizens go to worn to get one. Committees have been appointed to get the right-of-way. and, surely oo one will be so hoggish as not to grant it. Goldendale Sentinel. AdvrtiiM4 Letter.

Pliny regarded nosebleed as one of the distinctive characteristics of the human race, for he said that "man iz the only creature .from whom blsod flows at the nostrils," and, properly understood, he v.-as right. Of coiutbi blood .will flow from any part of any animal when the arteries er veins of that part are opened, but it is a fact that nosebleed, occurring without any apparent cause, is Eeldom, if ever, seen in: animals. The reason for this human peculiarity is that the membrane lining the nostrils in man is especially full of blood vessels, the walls of which are weak nnd easily ruptured by slight causes. It is usually very easy to recognize nosebleed, but sometimes the folood flows backward into the throat, and then is coughed up, or vomited, and may be thought to come from a hem orrhage of the lungs or stomach, and so cause much needless alarm. As a rule nosebleed is a thing of slight importance, and stops of itself after a little while, but the blood may escape in such quantity, or the bleeding may continue so long, that tiie patient is greatly weakened. When occurring in children it has ordinarily no signifi cance though this is not always to be taken for granted but in older per sons it may be a symptom of some othei illness, such as the beginningof typhoid fever, or a trouble cf the liver or heart. Nosebleed is one of the common mani festations of that curious condition in wiiich there is a tendency to severe hemorrhage after any sl:ght injury or even without any cause that can be discovered. Children with this predis position often called' "bleeders" suf fer from frequent and uncontrollable attacks of nosebleed, and sometimes die in one of them in spite of all ef forts to control the hemorrhage. Ordinarily there is little to be done, for the bleeding usually stops of itself. The child should Ibe made to sit quiet ly in a chair with the head only slight ly inclined forward, just enough t let the drops fall clear of the lips ints a basin. Ail clothing should be loosened about the neck. Ice may be applied xo the back of the neck, or ice water may be dashed into the face or made to trickle down the back. It is useful, also, to insert a little piece of ice into the bleeding nostril sometimes the efTec! is better if the ice is put into the other nostril and retain it there for a moment or two; or a still better plan, is to snuff up a mixture of alcohol aud1 water ns hot as it can be borne. The introduction of cobwebs into the bleeding nostril often Induces coagulation, or the same pur pose may be served by a little wad of ioose .vorsted which has been picked apart. If simple measures fail, the physician should be summoned before exhaustion ensues. Youth's Companion.
