COUGHING IN CONSUMPTION

A gentleman called upon us recently,
who actually escaped from the fangs of
consumption some years ago: and we are
induced to present the circumstances
"You speak of coughing continually.
Let me suggest to you the query, whether
this is not unnecessary and I'M furious.
have long been satisfied from experience
and observation, that much of the cough.
ing which precedes and attends consump-
ton is voluntary. Several years ago,
boarded with man who was in the in
cipient stages of consumption. I slept
in chamber over his bedroom, and was
obliged to hear him cough continually
and distressingly. l endured the annoy
ance night after light till it led me to re-
fleet whether something could not be
doEe to stop it. | watched the sound
which the mass made, and observed that
he evidently made voluntary effort to
cough. After this, | made several exper
iments on myself, and found that could
prevent my self from coughing, sneezing,
gaping, &C., in case of the strongest pro.
pensity to these acts by a strenuous ef-
fort of the will. Then l reflected that
coughing must be irritating and injurious
to the delicate organs that are concerned
in it, especially when they are in dis
eased state. What can be worse for ul.
cerated bronchia, or lungs, than the vio-
lent wrenching of a cough! 1t must be
worse than speaking. A sore on any part
of the body, if it is constantly kept open
by violent usage or made raw again by a
confusion just when it is healing, land OF
course begins to itch) will grow worse,
and end in death. Certainly, then, q
sore on the lungs may be expected to ter.
inmate fatally, if it is constantly irri-
tated, and never suffered to heal; and
this, it seems to me, is just what cough
ing does for it. On the strength of such
considerations as these, [ made bold to
ask the man if he could not stop cough.
ing. He answered no. 1 told him what
| thought of it as above. He agreed to
make trial; and, on doing so, he found
to his surprise that he could suppress his
cough almost entirely. The power of the
will over it increased as he exercised it,
and in a few days he was mostly rid of
the disposition to cough. His health, at
the same time, evidently improved, and
when | last saw him, he was in strong
hopes of getting out of deaths hands,"
This occurred eighteen years ago, and
the man comes round now, an active
business man, averripg that he has not
had sick day since.-Prorintia Yes.

The Animated Frying Pan.

In Ireland warming pan is called friar-
Not many years ago. an unsophsticated girl
took service in hotel in the town Of.
Poor thing-she had never heard Of warm
ing pan in her life, though she regularly con
fessed 10 friar once year.
1t so happened on a cool and drizzly night
that priest took lodgings at the inn. He had
travelled far, and being weary, retired at an
early hour. Soon after, the mistress Of the
house called the servant girl.
Betty, put the friar into No, g.
Up went Betty to the poor priest.
Your reverence must 60 to No. 6, my mis-
tress says.
How, what 2 asked he, alarmed at being
disturbed
Your reverence must 60 into No. g..
There was no help for it,and the priest arose,
donned dressing gown, and went into No. g..
In about fifteen minutes the mistress called
to Betty.
'Put the friar into No a.
Betty said something about disturbing his
reverence, which .the mistress did not under
stand. So she tod the girl, in a sharp voice,
TO do as she was directed, and she would al.
ways do right. Up went Betty, and the un-
happy priest. despite his angry prOtestations,
was obliged to turn out Of No. 6, and go into
No. 4. ButA little time elapsed ere the grl
was told to put the triar into No, Q, and the
poor priest, thinking that everybody was mad
in the house, and sturdily resolving to quit /
the next morning crept into the damp sheets
Of No. 8. But he was to enjoy no peace there
Betty was again directed to put the friar int
No. 3. and with tears in his eyes she obeyed
In about an hour the laudlaJy concluded Il
go to bed herself, and the friar was ordered in
to her room. Wondering what it all meant
Betty reused up. and told him he must go nt'
No. IL. The monk crossed himself, counteC
his beads, and went into No. II.
II SO happened that the husband Of the land
lady was troubled with the green eyed monster
Going up to bed therefore. before his wife, hi
suspicious were confirmed by seeing between
his own sheets man sound asleep. To rous
the sleeper, and kick him into the street, wa,
the work Of moment, nor vas the mistake ex
planned till next day, when the priest informed
{ the nn-keeper what Ovtrages had been commit
ted upon him, and he learned, to his astonish
meut, that he had been serving the whole nigh
as warming pan.
