CHECKED PRESENTATION.

There are two kinds of pcrspiration.
sensible and iasensi6le. When we see
drops of water on the surface ofthe bod
y as tho result Of exercise, or subsi.
dence Of fever, that is scRsiLkc perspiru-
f'o"' porspirn,i"n recognized by the
sense OF sight. But when pcispiIa,iun
is so gentle that i: cannot be detected d
in the shape Of watci-drops, when no
moisture can be felt. when it is known
to US only by certain sofinoss Of the
skin, that is insscnsibLe perspiration, and
Is so gentle that it may be- checked to
a very considerable extent wiihuut spe-
cial injury. But to use popular Language
which cannot DO mistaken, when man
is sweating freely. and it is suddenly
chpcked, aud the sweat Is not brought
out again in very fow moments, sud.
den and painful sickness is avery Ger
tain result.
What, then, checks perspirarion7 A
draft OF air while we are at rest, after
exercise, or getting the clothing wet
ana remaining at rest while il is So. -
Getting out Of a warm bed and going
to an open window or door, has boon
'he doath OF muititudes.
a lady heard c,Y of fire at mid.
night; it was bitter cold; it was so near
the flames illuminated her chamber
She leit the bed; hoisted tho window
The cold chilled her in a moment. -
From that hour until her death, quar-.
ter Of century later, she never saw q
we'll day.
A young lady went to her window
in her night clothes 80 look at something

arms on the stone window.sil, wbicl,
was damp and cold. She became an
invalid, and will remain SO for life.
Sir Thomas Coldy being in a profuso
sweat one night, happenep l., romcm.
her that he had left the key of his vino
cellar on the parlor table, aud fearing
his servants might improve the inadvcr-
tence aud drink somo Of his wine, he
Icit bis bed, walked down stairs, the
sweating process was checked, from
which he died in few days, leaving
six millions Of dollars in English funds.
Ills illness was so brief and violent that
be bad no opportunity to mako his viii,
and his immense property was divided
among five or six day-laborers who
were his nearest relatives.
The great practical lesson which we
wish 10 impress upon the mind Of the
reader is this: When you are porspi.
ing freely, heep IN motioa until you get
to good fire, or TO some place where
you arc perfectly sheltered from any
Jra't OF air whatever. - Halls Journal gf
