Never 90 to bed with cold or damp feet.
In going into cold air keep the mouth
resolutcly closed, that by compelling the
air to pass through the nose and head, it
may become warmed before reaching the
lungs, and thus prevent those sudden chills
which frequently result in pleurisy, pneu-
mOnia, and other serious forms Of disease
Never sleep with the head in the draft of
an open door or window. Let more cover
be on the lower limbs than the body
Have dn extra covering within easy reach
in case of sudden and great change of
weather during the night. Never stand
still moment out Of doors, especially at
street corners, after having walked even a
short distance.
Never ride near the open window Of a
vehicle for single half minu'c, especially
if it has been preceded by walk; yalus-
bic lives have thus been lost, or good
health permanently destroyed Never put

cold wind, throw silk handkerchief over
the face; its agency is wonderful in modi-
flying the cold.
Those who are easily chilled on going
out of doors should have some cotton bat

As men begin TO be about fifty years
old, especially if Of sedcntary habits, the
feeling on rising in the morning is as if
they had not gotten enough sleep, not as
much as they used 10 have, and as II they
would like to have more, but cannot get
it. They look upon healthy child sleep
ing soundly with feelings of envy. But
ii is curious to observe that there Is bliss
to all in the act of going to sleep, a bliss
we become cognizant Of only when we
happen to be aroused just as we are falling
into strong sleep; and there are strong
physiological reasons to suppose that this
state is counterpart of the great event Of
dying. In fact, those who have, in rare
cases, been brought back to life when on
its extroIest v<r5rSu11ia seves>l Gases ns
to those who have been recovered from
drowning and other modes. of strangula-
ton, or simple smothering, the expression
has been, on returning TO consciousness,
"How delicious.' "Why did you not let
me go?'
An eminent man, thus brought back,
represented that the last remembered SEN
sations of which he was conscious were as
if he were listening to the most ravishing
strains of music. Let US all, then, cher
ish the thought that our approach to the
sleep Of the grave is the strict counterpart
of the approach of sleep, of which some
nameless writer has beautifully said
1T is delicious moment-the feeling
that we are safe, that we shall drop gently
to sleep. The good is to come, not past
The limbs have been just tried enough to
render the remaining in one position de-
lightful, and the labor of the day is done.
A gentle failing of the conceptions comes
slowly creeping over us; the spirit of con-
sciousness disengages itself more and more,
with slow and hushing degrees, like fond
mother detsching her hand from her sleep
ing child; the mind seems to have a balmy
lid closing over it, like the eye closing,
more closed, closed altogether, and the
mysterious spirit Of sleep has gone to take
its airy rounds"
May such be the physical bliss Of dying
to you and me, dear reader, with the spir-
itual added, ten times more ineffable.

The Apostles Crecd-I,s Authorship.

There is a very old tradition that each
of the twelve articles of creed was com
posed by an Apostolic Author. 1t is said
that the twelve assembled in council be-
fore dispensing themselves to preach the
Gospel throughout the world. TO frame the
symbol or watchword vi the Christian
Church, and it will kc interesting to many
of our readers to know the Apostle to
whom each article is nscribed. The ira
dition is as follows A.
st. Pcier-"rbef eve IN God the Father
Almighty, Makcroi Heaven and Earth" 4"
St. Andrew-"And in Jesus Christ His
only Son, Our Lord
ST. James the Grest-"Who was con-
ceived by the Holy Ghost, born Of the
Virgin Mary"
St. John-"SufFercd under Pontius Pi-
late, was crucifed, dead, and buried"
st. Thomas-"fle descended into hcll, /"
or "IIe went to the place of departed spir-
its, (Which are considered as words of the
same meaning) "the third day he rose
from the dead"
st. James che Less-"lIe ascended into
heaven, and sitieth on the right hand Of

the disagreeabe feeling produced on going
from the fresh air intda room with many
persons, in which the ventilation is imper-
feet?
At night, also, fresh air should be ad-
mitted into the room, fer it is, if any thing,
more necessary that there should be plen-
tiful supply Of oxygen, We have often
been asked the ridiculous question. if
enough air did not cone in through the
key-hole. Certainly not. This is no fresh

that they spend one -thi.5 of their lives in

building house bestowing all his atten-
ton on the plan of the'parlors, while the
bedrooms are, to great extent, and in
some instances, entirely. neglected. 1t

Another thing to which we wish to draw
attention, is that of neslecting shoes and
stockings after being out on damp rainy
day. Though they may neither appear nor
feel damp, yet they should be changed,
care being observed to keep the feet al
ways warm. As long as Que is walking,
the circulation is kept up. no matter how
wet the feet may be, bat the instant you
remain quiet it is checked, unless the
stockings and shoes be changed. Holding
the feet but few minutes to q fire or resis-
ter, is not sufficient, as you only by that
dry the external part Of the shoe or boot.
If the feet are cold they should be rubbed
thoroughly with rough towel until warmth
has been restored, when they might be, if
desired, held for a short time before the
fire. Jumping out Of bed and walking
about on the carpet, as is too often done,
should bo avoided A pair of slippers can
be placed by the bed at night, when rctir-
ing, so as to be accessible when rising.

Marriages In Church.

1t is 6t and best that marriages should
be solemnized in the church, for which
give Eve good and sufficient reasons, viz
l. The capacity of church affords room
to admit the presence of many friends, so
that many are grat:fied, and thus the ties
of interest and friendlincss are multiplied
in the community. 2. Frequently it be-
comes important to prove the fact Of mar
riage, long after memorials less enduring
than youthful memory have suffered era

so impressive upon the minds Of the con-
lractng parties, and make so real to them
the weighty covenant into which they en-.

place against the enactment of unsecnlly
and untimely frivolities 3. 1t establishes
a fashion convenient for families of limited
means, because capable of adjustment TO
any amount of expenditure. In Difference

When he started awav, Rose went into the
garden with him, asking him If he would

"Yes," he said.
