CouGus AND CoLDs.-This Is the
season for the above annoyances, and
even with the best OF are people will
be subject to them. Coughs and colds
are among tho usual perils Of Winter,
and 1t Is not unfrequently the case that
the afflicted persons protract the in-
convenience for weeks when early at
tention would arrest the evil. They
take remedies" and defeat those
remedies by fatigue and exposure.
Two or three days at the beginning
giving to nursing and complete repose
and shelter, with such simple appli-
ancps and medicanents as are readily
attainable. will usually "break" any
cold, and restore the sufferer to COM
piete health. The first loss of time In
such cases il the shortest and the east
est. To expect nature to repel disease,
and ~recuperate under steady and con-
tinued pressure, Is to exact too much
of the vital resources. We throw In
the aforesaid remarks for the benefit
of all concerned, charging nothing en-
ira for the same.

how willingly some Of them will sue

are not positively informed as to tho
programme Of the OCCASION, except
that II will be both amusing and highly
attractive In every respect. Great cx-
pectations to-day, and ilutterinS hearts
tomorrow. Ho! for the ball.

woop SnmSKAGE.-Thc weather

effect upon the donkey loads Of wood

stormy day not only shortens the
sticks several inches, but shrinks the
size of the load wonderfully, While
