from parties in the country who, though anxious
to consult me-, avowed their utter inability to come
to Burlington for that purpose; and being anxious
to meet the wishes of those applicants, but con-

finally determined on making regular visits TO
many towns in Vermont and vicinity my time

opportunity of consulting me.

Taking Cold in Warm Weather.

Many people think there is no
danger of taking cold when the
weather is very warm, and expose
themselves in various ways when
oVerheated, fatigued or sweaty. This
is an erroneous Idea-destructive to
life and health. When the system is
tatigued with exercise, oYerheated or
sweating, great caution is necessary
to guard against taking cold. Seine
people say they never take cold, and
have no fear of taking cold. But
are they never i'll in some form ? o
yes but they do not cough, and con-
clude they do not take cold.
Colds do not affect all people
alike. All do not cough that have
been exposed to cold but the in
sensible perspiration can not be sud
denly checked without injury to
people and animals. Hence it is
dangerous to drink cold dr.. nks when
one sits down to rest, though if ex-
ercise is continued, they may be par
taken of In small quantities with
benefit. The systems of men and
animals that exercise must not be
rapidly but gradually cooled.
Horses ought not to be watered
when about to stop exercise, either
In warm or cold weather. This
practice subjects them to disease,
and often destroys their lives.
More than twenty-five years since,
I read in "Cutter's Physiology" that
when people were warm with exer-
else, or from other cause, they ought
to throw something over their shout
ders on sitting down to rest. An
observance of this rule has, I am
satisfied, saved me much sickness.
If men would put on a coat when
resting, or after work at night, it
would save them many bad feelings,
sickness, and sometimes death.

A Woman of the Paris Commune.

The court martial at Versailles has
Just tried a woman named Lemel, a
book-stitcher, aged forty-fve, for
participation IN the instruction.
The accused, who had made herself
remarked for the ultra political no.
tons in different workshopsinw which
she had been employed, joined, in
1866, the international, and soon be-
came one of it's most busy agents.
She thus became acquainted with
Varlin (afterward Minister of FL
nance under the Commune) and 9TH
er individuals who at q later period
earned for themselves a deplOrable
reputation, and with them formed q
cooperative association called ola
Marmite," in the Rue Larrey, to
supply workmen with meals at cost
price, but which soon degenerated
into a sort of club, of which she was
Secretary, and a frequent speaker.
During the siege she took an active
part at all the Radical meetings in
the Latin Quarter, and after the in
surrection of the 18th of March
naturally became an ardent support
er of the Commune, and was a con.
slant speaker at the women's clubs
held in the churches, using the most
insolent language. AS the final ca
tastrophe of the Commune ap-
preached, her evaporation knew no
bounds; she was one of about fifty
women who went, armed with mus
kets, and wearing red scarfs and
cockades, TO the barbados at Batig-
nolles and Montmartre, to excite
the Federates to resistance, and her
name had already appeared at the
bottom of a proclamation, brand
ing the troops of Versailles as COW
ardly assassins, repUdiating all con-
Citation, and demanding war to the
knife. The accused did not deny
the part she had taken in the insur'
rection, and on one of the witnesses
repeating a remark made by the
woman Lemel's daughter, to the Ell
feet that ''if her mother told her &c
90 to hear mass at church she would
obey, but if she were sent to the bar
ricades she would refuse" the Prls
oner interrupted by saying that "hel
daughter was too wel-bred to MAXI
suc6 an observation. The Govern
ment Commissioner demanded a Sc
we're sentence againt the prisoner, a
being q most dangerous character
and the Court condemned her to de
, portation in a fortified building.

A WOman's Ideal Man.

Nothing surprises men more than
the odd ignorance of women con-
corning them; and half the unhap-
piness in married life, at least IN
England, springs from that igno-
rance. They cannot be made to
understand the difference between
mans nature and requirements and
their own; and they condemn all
that they cannot understand. in
hose few rational homes where
mems sports and gatherings, undis-
turbed by the presence of petticoats,
are not made occasions for suspicion
or Iemonstrance, the stock of love
| and happiness with which married
life began is more like the widow s
cruise than elsewhere but unfor-
tunately for both husbands and
wives, these homes are rare; while
those are common where a game of
billiards in the evening is occasion
for tears or pouting, and deadly Of
fence is taken at club-dinners or q
weeks shooting. The consequence
of which is deceit or dissension; and
sometimes both.
The woman's ideal man has none
of these cratic tendencies. His
business done, he comes home with
the docility of a well-bred pointer
sent to heel, and finds energy enough
after his hard days work for a varie-
ty of petits SONS which make him
more precious in her eyes than all
the tact, the temper, the judgment,
the uprightness, he has manifested
in his dealings with the outside world
And the dOmesticity which she
claims from her husband she de-
mands from her son. Latch-keys
are her abomination; and the "gas
left burning" is as a beacon-Hght on
the way of destruction. She has the
profoundest suspicion of all the men
whom her boy calls his friends. She
never knows into what mischief they
may lead him; but she is sure it is
mischief, if they keep him away from
his home in the evening. She would
prescribe the same social restraints
and moral regimen for her son as
for her daughter; and she thinks the
energies OF masculine nature require
no wider field and no looser rein.
But though she likes those tame
aud tender men whom she can tie
up close to her apron strings, and
lovingly imprison in the narrow do
main of home, she sUccumbs without
a struggle to the square-iawed brute
of the Rochester type-the man who
dominates her by the mere force of
superior strength and she is not
too severe on Don Juan, if only she
can flatter herself that she is the best
loved and the last. That these are
the men most liked by women is
shown both by their own novels, and
by daily observation and it seems
to us that, among the many subjects
of extended study of late proposed
for women, a better acquaintance
with mems minds, a higher regard
for the nobIer kind of man, and the
ability to accept love as only one of
many qualities, and not always the
strongest praiseworthy of his impul-
ses, would not be out of plaee.-LOn-

Good Manners.

If good manners are not to die
out amongst us, reverence must be
restored. The old man must be
honored, and the weak must be con-
sidered. the illustrious must be de-
ferred to, and most of all, women
must be respected. Women have
the matter In their own hands. They
can compel men to be well manner
ed, and men who know how to be-
have with politeness toward women
will end by behaving with politeness
toward each other. Hauteur al.
ways implies want OF consideration
for others, and is therefore no part
of politeness, save when indeed an
impertinence has to be quietly but
effectively resented. If we were ask
ed to name the word which en-
bodies female POliteness we should
name graciOusness." Women
should be gracious; gracious Is their
happy medium between GOODNESS
and familiarity; as self-respeet is
that of men between arrogance and
downright rudeness. Probably,
there can be no true politeness
where there is no humility, either
real or well assumed. In a self
making age we cannot be surprised
at meeting with so much self-asser-
ton and so much aggressiveness
We can but wait for the time when
the process will be complete, and
the individual will be well-breC
enough once more to recognize hii
own significance

"PoofI pools poof p snorted Mi
das, as his head emerged out of the
water. Well. this is really re-
freshing bath, and I think it must
have quite washed away the Golden
Touch. And now for filing my
pitcher"
AS he dipped the pitcher into the
water it gladGened lis heart to see it
change from gold into The same hon
est earthen vessel which it had been.
King Midas fastened back to the
palace, and you need hardly be told
the first thing he did was to spr nkle
it by handfuls over the golden figure
of little Marygold.
No sooner did it fall on her than
you would have laughed to see how
the rosy color came back to the dear
child's cheek, and how she began to
sneeze and sputter, and how aston
ished she was to find herself drip
ping wet, and her father still throw
ing more water on her.
Pray do not, dear father" cried
she see how you have wet my nice
dress, which I put on early this
morning"
For Marygold did not know that
she had been a golden statue, nor
recolIect anything that had hap
pened since the moment when she had
run with outstretched arms to com
fort poor king Midas. And her
father did not tell her how foolish he
had been, but led MarYgold into the
garden and delighted her little heart
by sprinkling all the roses and turn
ing them back again into real fra
grant beauties.
And when King Midas had grown
quite an old man, and used to trot
Marygold's children on his knees. he
was fond of telling them this mar
velous story, and said that the gold
tint in their hair was caused by
their mothers hair once having
been real gold. All of which, Of
course, they believed, as you must
do.

TWO WI VS. TO LOVE.
BY SUSAN COOLIDGE.
From Scribner's Monthly for October.
He says he loves me well, and
Believe it; in my hands TO make
Or mar, his life lies utterly;
Nor can the strong plea deny
Which claims my love for his loves
sake.
He says there Is no face so fair
AS mine; when draw near, his eyes
Light up; each ripple of my hair
He loves the very cloak wear
He touches lightly where it lies.
And roses. roses all the way
Upon my path fall, strewed by him;
His tenderness by night. by day.
Keeps constant watch, and heaps aIway
My cup of pleasure to the brim-
The other women in their spite
Count me the happiest woman born,
To be so worshipped; delight
To flannt his homage in the sight
OF all, and pay them scorn for secrn.
Hove him-or think do;
Sure, one must love what is so sweet;
He is so tender and so true,
So eloquent to plead and sue,
So strong, though kneeling at my feet.
Yet had visions once of yOre,
Girlish imaginlngs Of zest,
A possible thrilI-but why run DER
These fancies, idle dreams, no more;
Twill forget them this is best.
So let him take-the pastis past
The future with its golden key
Into his outstretched hands cast;
/ shall love him-perbaps-at last,
AS now 1 love his love for me.

Not as all other women may,
Love my love; he is so great,
80 beautiful, dare essay
No nearness, but in silence lay
My heart upon his patn-and wait,
Poor heart, its beatlDgs are so low
He does not heed them passing by,
Save as one heeds where YiOlets grow
A fragrance, caring not to know
Where the yelled purple buds may lie.
1 sometimes think that it is dead,
1t lies so still bend and lean
Like mother over cradle-head,
Listening if still faint breaths are shed
Like signs that parted lips between.
And then with vivid pulse and thrill
Itqnickens into sudden bliss
At sound of step nor voice, nor will
Be hushed, although, regardless still,
He knows not, cares not, it is his.
would not lift it If I could,
The little flame though faint and dim
AS glow worm spark in lonely wood,
Shining where no man calls it good,
May some day light the path for him:
May guide his way, or soon or late,
Through binding mist and falling rain B.,
And so content watch and wait;
Let others share his happy fate,
only ask to share his pain.
But if some day, when.passing slow,
My dear love should his steps arrest,
Should spy the poor heart, bending low,
Should raise 1t, scan it. love it go!
Why-GOd alone can tell the rest.
