How 70 Preserve a Woman.

There is nothing in the world we think
so much of as we do of women. Our
mother is a woman-wife, sisters, and
pretty cousins are women; and the daugh-
tiers will be if (heaven spare them y
they live long enough. And there is a
love of women in general which we do
do not deny. A fine, magnificent speci-
men of the sex, full of life and health,
ripe, red cheek and flashing eye, is
something that does one good to look at
as she illuminates the humdrum sidewalk,
and every day Streets. A North River
steamer, under full headway, with col
ors flying, is rather pretty sight-rath- |
er stirring and imposing; and we pull
up our tired nag to see her pass, and ad-
mire the swell she cuts. Comparatively, |
however, the steamer sinks into insignif- |
icance, or some other very deep water,
by the side Of a well kept, well dressed
woman. There is norubbing it out wo-
men are the ornament, charm, blessing,
beauty and bliss of life-(men's life we
mean of course Any means that can
be devised for preserving them should
be publicly made known. They are diff
ferent from any other kind of fruit. You
cannot pickle them. You cannot do them
up in sugar and set them in a cold room,
with paper soaked in brandy over their
mouths. You cannot put them up In
cans and seal them up air-tight, without
injuring their form and favor. Now, as
men are so dependant upon women for
| life's choicest blessings, a proper mode of
preserving them becomes of great mo-
ment, and we are sure that the public
will thank US for an infallible receipt
Have the feet well ventilated, then
pay the next attention to the chest. The
| chest is the repository of the vital organs.
There abide the heart and lungs. Il Is
from the impression made upon these or
gans through the skin, that the shiver
: comes. 1t is NATURES quake-the alarm
: bell at the onset of danger. A woman
\ never shivers from the effect of cold up
: upon her limbs, or hand, or head, but let
e the cold rike through her clothing on
her chest, and off goes her teeth into q
chatter, and the whole organism is in q
commotion. One sudden and severe i'm
o preston of cold upon the chest has slair
: its tens of thousands. Therefore, while
O the feet are we'll looked after, never for
get the chest. These points attended TO
o the natural connections of the dress vii
: supply the rest and the woman is ready
h for the air. Now let her visit her neig
It bors, 60 shopping, allupon tho poor, anC
n walk for the good of it, for the fun of 1t

/ Air that is dry or burnt, more or les
n charged with gasses evolved by the fue

! with mittens on. Fly around the houst
+ like mad and ventilate the rooms. Dom
IS sit pent up in single room with double
IS windows. Fruit will not retain its full
20 form and favor in air-tight cans; neithe
r will women. They need air. If tht
o. shiver comes on during these opera
: tions, go directly and put on something
more about the chest.
Again, do not live in damp rooms
Is Light fades the carpet, but it fades nc
