Sambo and his Dinah were sentenced to be

Cold Feet

Nothing is more inducive Of pulmonary
disease than cold feet. Cold feet cannot
possibly occur if the circulation is properly
kept up. a sense of eoldness IN them is an
indication that they are not sufficiently pro-
tected By cIothiag Our bodies are often
overburdened with oyercoats and wrapping
shawls, while our limbs are but irnperfectlY
covered. Now there is nothing more dan
ger0us than allowing the feet 70 become
damp aad cold Health requires that they
should always be kept warm and dry. 1t is
better to pay the tailor, and shoemaker ana
hosier, for preserving your health, than 70
pay the doctor for curing you after you are
ILL.,
Recall some Of your past experiences and
You will soon discover that twO-thirds Of the
colds you haze suffered from were produced
by getting cold and wet feet The Indians
understood this fully. In their wigsanas
they always lay down with their feet toward
the Ere. When they are travelling IN cold
weather and are compelled 70 sleep IN the
open air, they dig q hole IN the earth, IN tbs
centre Of which they build a FIRE, and then
lie down IN q circle, each one hanging his
legs into the hole. In this custom they have

R. J. Walker, in letter to the National
Intelligencer, thus defines the effect of the
veto President Johnson's veto opens the
new campaign in favor Of the Union. 1t ar
rests the overthrow Of the States and the
concentration of all power in one consoiida-
ted military despotisn. It prevents the ez-
pulsion Of eleven States from the Union and
the erection of eleven Ireland5 within its
limits, to be controlled and oppressed by
military power. 1t prevents the quartering
of large standing army and hosts Of Off
eiaIs in the South, with an enormous in
crease Of our debt, to be followed surely by
oppressive taxation or dishonoring and dis
graceful Reputation. It prevents the defeat
of the plans of the Secretary Of the Treas
ury for the funding and reduction Of the
public debt, and a safe and gradual return
Of specie payments.
