HOW to- PreYent. Colds.


DIR. William A. Alcott. the author Of
"The House Live in," and well known
as lecturer on the laws of health, has
in press work on Hygiene, which will
probably be of great practical value.
From chapter on colds westake the fol.
lowing advice, which is now quite sea.
sonable - aaas $3.50 4ast M.t
Those who would avoid colds must not
muff1e themselves, especially their faces
and throats, every time they go into the
open air. l do not say that none of the
vast number already diseased should be
allowed to break the force of stream Of
air lower in temperature to zero. or 6f-
teen or twenty degrees below it, either by
a respirator or mutHer. l am writing for
those who as yet deem themselves heal
thy.
After brisk walking. or other exercise,
during which we have worn more than a
needful amount of clothing. we must be-
ware Of throwing of part of it, and sit
ting down in temperature which is very
low. or in air which is damp, especially if
we have been in a free perspiration. Bet
ter to keep on our clothing till we see how
matters are going on with us. 1t would
be safer to add clothing in such circum-
stances than to diminish it.
Those who would be perfect in this
matter should avoid sitting with wet feet
after exercise. or sleeping in damp cloth
ing. While II person is exercising in the
open air, if not over-heated or over fatig-
ued, it may be safe for him to have wet
feet. Indeed some will go with their feet
wet all the forenoon without injury, if they
keep in motion, but the phiIosop pher Locke,
who recommended that children should
have holes in their shoes, would hardly
have justified the practice of sitting with
wet feet.
Those who are accustomed to warm
clothing should not exchange it for that
which is extremely thin. when they are
about to go abroad in the cold air, un~
less they are to walk. Thousands Of Young
people. especially females, might trace
the consumption, neuralgia or fever which
destroyed them, TO some act of reckless
ness like that which is implied in the fore
going.
In general, we arc quite too much
afraid of the sun aud rain to enjoy that
hardihood which is indispensable in cli~
mate as much exposed to colds and cou>
sumption as that of the United States.
The late Gen. Dearborn, Of Massachu-
setts. would have no such thing as All UNI.
brelIa in his family if he could help it. He
thought it safer. on the whole. 10 be oc-
casionally little wet. than 10 exclude our
selves from every drop of rain, nineteen
times in twenty, with the almost entire
certainty Of being sometime caught with
out one. and of suffering severely as the
consequence.

A NOBLE Fellow. \ short time since,
four little boys broke through the ice on
the lake near their school house, in Wa
terville, Wisconsin. The villagers has.
tened to the spot. but the ice was SO thin
that none dared to venture to their aid.
AT this moment, just as the boys were
about sinking. young man, eighteen
years OF aye. named John Adams, spraus
forward. seized fishing spear, and lea.
wing the mos. of his clothes on the bank.
plunged into the lake and saved two OF
tho boys. He then made another dash
aud saved the third. Adams was now al.
most exhausted, but the mother of the
fourth boy was standing near in the crea.
test agony. aud Adams said to her, "
will save your boy or die" Tying a rope
around his waist he told those on Shore Ia
pull him if he sank, and cried out, 'Stand
by the rope, am going to him." He
then plunged in. swan out some ten rods
breaking the ice with his hands, seized
the boy, who was sinking for the third
time. carried him ashore. and restored
him to his mothers's arms.
