MUFFL1Na THE THRoAr-What is the best mode of protecting the throat from colds, where person is very susceptible to them The common way of protect ing the throat is to bundle and wrap it up closely, thus overheating and render ing it tender and sensitive, and more h- able to cold and inflammation than be- fore. This practice is all wrong, and re- suits in much evil. Especially is this the case with children, and when in addition to the muffling of the throat the extrem- ities are insufficiently clad, as is often the case, the best possible conditions are presented for the production of sore throats, coughs, croup and all sorts of throat and lung affections. It is wrong to exclude cold air from the neck and if it is overloaded a portion of the time, when it is exposed some form of disa- greement of the threat will occur. The rule in regard to clothing the neck should be to keep it as cool as comfort will allow.

A TERRIBLE LEAP-A young man named Ross, of Virginia, had an attack of brain fever. During the absence of his father, who had gone for physician, l, young Ross imagined an eremy of his fathers had come to burn the house. He immediately left the house, ascended hill near at hand, and contrived by dexterous climbing to get on top of a cliff fronting the Cow Pasture river. He then scrambled along, attempting to gain point where he could view the house. Imagining the faneied enemy had dis covered him, and was in pursuit he srrang off the precipice-which was fifty four feet and some inches in night clear of all obstructions. He was found some hours afterward by hI3 mother, who heard kim moaning, and was conveyed to the house on litter. A physician being on hand, pronounced his case hopeless. Care and good nursing, how ever, were blessed with good results, and, wonderful to say, MT. Ross is so far re- covered as to be able to walk about.

Dropping like meteor from the skies,
Miss Clara Morris, lady of rare dramatic
talent, unknown here and unheralded, was
precipitated upon the fortunate patrons Of
the Varieties Theatre, with her attractive
repertoire. All last week she held the pub
lie enchained, as if by magic, while she de-
Iineated the character of Ats1oe Sylvester, in
Days splendid play Of ''Man and Wife"
The merits of a great actor consist in
correct deIineations, derived from careful
study of the play in all its parts, and the
consequent power of enlisting the sympa-
thes and emotions Of an audience. These
merits Miss Morris possesses to a degree
rarely equaiedo Her close and critical study
of human nature has given her the secret of
unlocking the human heart, SO that she
penetrates the innermost Tecesses OF the
hearts Of her audience Her emotions are
shared 10y those who witness her imperson-
ations. and by hes passions others are
moved.
IN the character OF Core, in the drama OF
''Articie A.. she depicts by turns loving,
sorrowful and revengeful woman. Her
love is deep, earnest, sincere, and when he

next Saturday night, and such of our read
