\ cold i simply a developer OF a dis
cA-ed condition which may have been la
tent or requiring only some favoring con-
dtion to burst ont into the fame of dis
ease. That this is usually the correct view
Of 4 cold Is disease-producing agent
under all ordinary circumstances NAV be
made plain by reflection upon personal ex-
perience, even 10 the most ordinary under
standing. When the human body i at il,
prime-with youth. vigor, purity. and
good constitution on its side-no degree
OF ordinary exposure To cold gives rise 10
any unpleasant effects. All the ordinary
precautions against colds. coughs. and
Rheumatic pains may be disregarded. aud
no in effects eusue. But let the blood be-
conc impure. let the body become de-
ranged from any acquired disorder. or lie;
the Vigor begin to waue. and the iuiirmi-
Ties OF age be- left 10y occasional deran@e-
mentS la some vital part. either from iu-
herited or actual abuses and the action of
cod Will excite more or less disorder of
some kind. and the form of this disorder
or the disease that will ensue. will be de-
lei mined By the kind of pre-eXisting blood
impurity, or the pre-eXlsting fault OF the
organic processes. IL follows from these
facts aud considerations that the secret OF
avoiding the unpleasant consequences
of cold upon the body has very little de-
pendence upon exposure, but great deal
upon impure and weak condition OF all the
vital processes. In other words. with an
average or superior consultation and an
intelligent observance of all the laws of
health men and women could not take
cold il they wanted to; they might be eX-
posed to the action OF cold TO a degree
equal TO the beast Of the field. and with
like impunty. But in case of persons
with feeble constitutions, aud who disre-
gard knowingly or otherwise the condi-
tons of healthy existence, no degree of
care will prevent the taking of cold. as il
is formed. They may live in houses regu-
lated with all the precision of a hot house,
they may cover themselves with the most
highly protective clothing the market pro-
vides. aud yet they will take cold. ] don't
think the consumptive person lives, or
ever will live, even if kept in tempera-
ture absolutely uniform, and clothed in a
wholly faultless manner. in whom the we'll
known signs of one cold after another will
not be apparent. But, on the other hand,
there are those who, like the late Sir
Henry Holland, Of good constitutions, aud
living in accordance the laws of health,
may travel. as he did. from the tropics TO
the arctics again and again, clad only IN
an ordinary dress-coat, and yet scarcely
know what il is to have cold or sickness
of any kind. The truth Is. to avoid taking
cold from ordinary or even extraordinary
exposure, the vital processes must be made
strong enough to rise above the unt0ward
indoence of external condition. From
the Sanitsrian.

Household Hints.

In making frosting for cakes or pud-
dings, little lemon juice, tartaric acid or
cream of tartar Is a very pleasant addition
TO the taste, besides making the frosting
much lighter.
In cooking oat meal, hominy, wheaton
grits. cracked wheat. or any of those nice
breakfast dishes. cook 1t In a covered tin
dish set in Kettle of boiling water. In
this manner there Is no danger of scorch-
ing. Cornstarch pudding. seamoss. farina
aud all other articles mixed with milk can
be cooked in the same way.
In roasting poultry. one thickness of
writing or nice brown wrapping paper tied
round the wings and drumsticks will keep
them from being baked TO u crisp and
spoiled.
Bleeding from the nose may be stopped
By putting bits of lint In the nostrals, aud
by raising the arms over the head
Vegetables should never be cooked In
iron pots unless the latter are enameled or
otherwise coated internally.
