Checking the PerspiratiOn.

The danger Of risking the stoppagc
OF the pores by sudden change of temp
eratnre is ierriably illustrated every day.
A case which fell under our personal OBJ.
servaiou we remember with very pain,
ful feelings. A leading New York gent
leman, eXerting himself on a ves sci some
what unusually, found himself, at the
end ofan hour and half, ,lpre,tywell ex-
hausted, and perspiring freely. He sat
down to rest, The cool wind from the
sea was delightful, and, engaging iu con
versaiion, time passed faster than he
was aware of. In attempting to rise, he
found he was unable to do so without
assistance. He was taken home and
put to be !, where he remained for two
years ; and for a long time afterward
could only hobble about with the aid of
a crn'ch. Less exposures than this
have, In constitutions not so vigorous,
resulted in innamaion, of the lu ugs,
"pneumonia,' ending in less than a
week, or causing tegious rheumatism,
to be source of torture for life time.
MuItitudes of ives would be saved
every year, and an incalcuable amount
of human suffering would be prevented
if parents would begin to explain to
their children at the age of three or
four years, the danger which attends
cooling off 100 quickly after exercise, and
and the importance of not standing still
after exercise, or work, or play, or of
exposed to wind or of sit
ting at an open window or door, or of
pulling off any garment, even the hat
Or bonnet, while in heat. 1t should be
by all that a cold never
comes without cause, and that, 10
four times OUT Of five, it is the result of
leaving off exercise too suddenly, or of
still in the wind, or in Il
cooler atmosphere than that in which
-he exercise has been ken.-Erchange.

ANTEDILUvIAN REMAINS IN CALI.
interesting discovery has e.
Gently been made near Calistoga, in Napa
County. A gentlemen while wander
ing in the vicinity of the famed Geysers,
came across hitherto unknown forest
of petrifed trees. So far as known,
they are all recumbent, and broken
squarely across the trunk, proving that
the fracture was made in falling after
they became stone. The sections are
separated from each other by two or
three leet, as though they had moved
by their own weight when they feL
some OF them are lifty-four feet in di-
ameter and twenty-five or thirty feet
long, the roots in every case being be-
low ground. The wood appears to have
been oakor madrona. and the grain of
many pieces has alternate streaks Of
beautiful quartz
The Pacific coast is wonderfully rich
in the foSsiled remnants of the antedi-
luviau era. Within the last two months
discoveries have been made that in any
other country would set the Saca's crazy
with excitement, and furnish material
for endless discussion.

The Man who Bathes the Girls.



There is only one man that have en-
We'd during the Summer-the man who
balhes the girls at Long Branch, the
norman of the hotel. He takes his
place ten yards from shore, and as the
vestals and DANES come into the water
he does totally immerce them. He is
brawny and ugly, and yet he is the
most popular man with the pnnctilious
half of our species that have ever seen.
A very scrawny and untcmpting maid
en- lady, who probably never had a gen
uine pair Of mans arms around her in
her life, was the bane of this bather's
eXistance. She went on every day Of
the season. to take her bath, and ur-
der the pretext of learning to swim she
made that devoted child of Adam duck
her for two hours. The squeals, the
sighs, the interjections and the noise
this female used were agongy to the
bather. S id he:
''She kelches me as if l was a boss
or u hitchng post, and lives back all OF
what might have been ia them two
hours. And the more she enjoys her
self, the colder she gets. | be now on
this beach five years; but if they don't
trot out some livelier females shall re
sign. aint no undertaken of drowned
folk"
Quite otherwise is the dempanor Of
this guilty norman when more tempt
ing graces come to swim. He places
them lengthwise across his two arms,
face upward to the sky, aud floats them
in the surface, looking down meanwhile,
at the streaming tresses the closed eyes
the exhaling nostrls, aud the little shod
feet, with the mingled piety, resignation,
aud tenderness of Norman Bishop bap-
tising a convert. Occa sionaly he agi-
tates the water in a guilty way; as if
he wished TO be presumed to be earning
his salt, but he earns his salt easier
tLan any person of my acquaintance.
Millions Of his species would pay for
his position. saw him once shock the
feelings Of ia bashful young gentleman
about his lady love. The bashful man
had probably never doue as much as to
give the lady his arm. The other took
her from him at once, and swinging her
under water, hoisted her in his arms,
dipped her again, and, to facilitate her
diving, held her nose with one hand and
her toe with the other, and thus sub
merged her absolutely. The young man
felt for his weapons TO immediate this
uncvil varlet, but the ungratetul young
woman just then, getting breath, cried:
"Gustavus, it's perfectly splendid"
