Many fatal form of sickness is b.3ught in
to action by slight cold. Many a friend has
been lost to us in that way, who but for tri-
vial exposure at a critical condition of the sys-
tenn at the time, might have still been alive.
Many time the same exposure, an hour soon
er or later, would have had no i'll effect what
ever. If for example, you enter vehicle in
profuse perspiration, and sit near an open
window, with strong draught of air, cold is
inevitable, but if you had taken the same seat
au hour before, not having exercised SO as to
cause perspiration, no damage would have re-
suited. A man can never become so hardy
but that he will take cold if he coos off too
soon, or if he allows himself to remain uncom-
fortably cold in still position until he be
comes chilled through and through. 1t is we'll
therefore to know and remember few of the
things which are likely to give cold.
Going to sleep in the day time, especially
without any covering, even in midsummer,
with the ordinary clothing on, because during
sleep the circulation is less active than when
awake, and is not sufficiently active to repel
cold.
Sitting in a room where there is fire, with
the back toward the window, because there is
draught made by the cold air driving into
the room through the crevices.
Sitting still with damp feet even for half an
hour has often induced fatal consequences.
Putting on cold pair of shoes or slippers
Immediately after having come in from a walk.
Coming into parlor or otherwise unused
room in spring or fall, when there is no fire,
which the exercise in the pleasant, balmy air
from without has caused some perspration.-
A gentleman should keep his hat on, and Ia
dy should keep in motion while waiting for
the person visited to come in. 1t is not unus-
ual to keep parties waiting in cold parlor so
long as to get completely chilled.
Alter entering room without fire from a
brisk walk, none of the outer clothing should
be removed for several minutes, unless busted
on the feet, so as to keep up the circulation to
point equal to what it was while out of doors.
Prominent persons have brought on serious
and even fatal sickness in foreign lands by Wis
iting picture galleries or rooms of other art,
especially in Rome, which never have FIRE in
them, and almost always have a sepulchral
dampness, rather pleasant on first entering,
but which rapidly diminishes the heat of the
body, inducing chills, pneumonia, and death.
Hence it is wise, on entering building or room
without fire from the warm sunshine from
without, to put on an additional garment, or at
least draw those already on closer around you,
yet it is quite common to see persons take off
the hat, lay aside the gloves, remove the shawl,
the moment they come in from the street.-Dr.
Hail.

wing Bee.


The newspapers are having much fun at the
expense of the Spelling Bee." We copy be-
low some of the jokes
The spelling bee is a honeyless affair unless
the ladies participate.
AT Wheeling, Virginia, "bee," Mr.. Day
spelt "pasnip," and was hooted out.
A whole spelling bee at Easton, the other
night collapsed on bachelor !" they would
have too much at" in it.
We agree with the correspondent who says
we will soon have another bad spell of wealth
er, and writes it heath e-r.
B. Gratz Brown and ex-R Representative Stan
ard, of Missouri, practiced in a spelling match
held recently in st. Louis. They both went
down on "bamboozle."
The boys tricked the girls in spelling
match at Providence. The agreement was that
the words should be selected from the city
newspapers of the day for the match, and the
boys secured the publication of scientific ar
ticle full of unfamiliar terms.
Bill Smikes came home mellow the other
night, and when his wife asked him what all
ed him he said he had been to. the spelling
school and had (hc) got foul ofhip-pip-poppo
-poppo-hip popity -pop--hip- pity hop
-hmus- s-hippimus-hip- -hip-hippitymu
hipopytimus-or some such (hic) confounded
word, and it had given him one of his "spells."
-Saratogian.
The only way young lady could spell
"molton" recently, was-M-o-u-l-t-on
/ As Sspriater,- hard of hearing, at spelling
match the other evening asked the Captain to
"Wrlte the darned word down so a fellow can
tell what It's"
The spelling schools that are spreading all
over Ohio are said to have demonstrated the
fact that woman can spell Eve tiu.ss better
than a man.
This conundrum is respectfully submitted to
the "best speller :" If S i-o-u-x spells su, and
eye spells i, and g-h-e spells side, why
doesn'ts s-i We sig heed spell suicide !?
In the Haverhll spelling matches the con-
testants wear masks for the benefit of bad
spoilers.
He left the spelling bee at ten o'clock, and
stopped in saloon on his way home. Here
he met several friends who ''set 'em up"' di-
vers times, and he reached home about mid
night with confused brain and very de
moralzed pair of legs. Then he swore that
somebody had stolen the key hole, but his wife,
with fearful scowl on her brow and q lamp
in her hand, admitted him
Drunk" she exclaimed.
"D-r-u-n-c, (hic) drunk. THAI eazynuff."
"Brute I"
"B root (hic) give US harder one.'
"Idiot ~
:'Thaz harder (hc), but kin spellum. Id
Id g-I-d-i-g t, Idiot. Now give-us stun.
ner (hic)."
She picked up poker and gave him "stun-
ner'-and the spelling bee adjourned sine die.

TIB, THE GRAY MARE.
A QUAINT OLD RHYME.

QUAINT OLD RHYME.
Young Roger, the Mllar, has courted of late
farmers fair daughter, called beautiful Kate
Whose worthy portion was full fifty pounds,
With Gold & juels furbelowd gowns
Silk ribbons & laces & diamonds & rings,
And sumptuous apparel,
And twenty-five things.
He oftentimes told her strange stories of love,
How kind he would be and how constant he'd prove,
Until this fair Maiden began to relent; s
Her friends and relations had given their CONSENT
The day being appointed she welded must be,
To Roger her lover, &c,
Immediately. ..
The day being come & the Money told,
1t was fine portion in silver gold
Young Roger he unto her father then said
Sir, will not have this beautiful mad
Although she is witty, charming and fair,
Without an addition, &c,
OF Tib, the Gray Mare.
The old man made answer unto to him with speed;
thought your d have courted my daughter, indeed
And not my Gray Mare, but since it is thus,
My money once more will put in my purse,
And am her father solemnly swear,
Ile keep both my daughter, &C.,
And Tib, the Gray Mare.
The old man said since he had acted so low,
He home without Kitty, his daughter should go,
And he like blockhead was kicked out of door,
Forbiddng him ever to come any more;
Young Roger began his locks for to tear.
And wish'd he had never, &c,
Stood for the Gray Mare
ABOUT Two years aIter OF nllle ABOVE
He chanc'd for to meet with young Kitty, his love
Say he: Lovely Kitty do you not know me?
If / be not mistaken I've seen you, says she,
Or one in your likeness, with long yellow hair
Who once came a courting, &C.,
My fathers Gray Mare.
o no it was you courting came,
As you are young Kitty by name.
Indeed, sir say Kitty, you need not deny it,
The truth of the matters been very well tried,
For you to my father did solemnly sware
YOU take his daughter, &c,
Without the Gray Mare.
To tell the truth, would have had both,
That times for pleasure might have rode fOrtf
Not thinking he would have made any dispute
In giving with Kitty the gray mare to boot
Before he had lost such dutiful son,
But now am sorry, &c,
For what have done.
Be sorry, says Kitty, l value it not,
There's men enough in the world to be got.
But surely that man must be at his last prayer
That would take wife for the sake of mare,
The prize thereof sir, is not very great
So fare you well, Roger, &C..
Go mourn for your fate.

MARRIED LIFs.-Geod counsel for a wife and
mother 81 will try to make myself and all
around me agreeable. 1t will not do to leave
a man to himself till he comes to you to take
no pains to attract him, or TO appear before
him with long face. 1t is not so difficult as
you think, dear child, to behave to husband
so that he shall remain forever a husband. |
am an old woman, but you can still do what
you like; word from you at the right time
will not fail of its effects; what need have you
to play the suffering virtue? The tear of
loving girl, says an old book, is like a dew-dr'p
on q rose; but that on the cheek of a wife is
drop of pain to her husband. Try to appear
cheerful and contented, and your husband will
be so and when you have made him happy,
you will become so in reality. Nothing hatters
man so much as the happiness of his wife; E;
he is always proud of himself as being the
source of it. As soon as you are cheerful you
will be lively and alert, and every moment
will afford you an opportunity to let fall an
agreeable word Your education, which gives
you an immense advantage, will greatly assist
YOU and your sensibility will become the no
blest gift that Nature has bestowed on you,
when it shows itself in affectionate assiduity,
end stamps on every action SOFT kind ten
der character, instead Of wasting itself in Sc
cret repning

JAY GOULD AT HoME.-A friend of mine, says
a correspondent, had an interview with Jay
Gould the other day at his own house, in N. Y.
and there some who may be interested to
know how the operator lives, and by what
methods he works. His house is on Fifth ave-
nue., corner house, with bay window, near
~ opposite Windsor Hotel-nothing remarka-
bic about it in any way. The door is opened
to visitor by an unusually plain and stupid
looking Hibernian female Gt is said he dare
not have smart colored man for he would
learn too much and persons whom he meets
on confidential terms invited to the front
basement, which is smoking room and office.
1t is here, in this room. that ne transacts busi-
ness, bears stock, breaks up com mbnations, and
performs those daring cts.which separate him
from the mass. In this basement are four tel
egraph machines, controlling eleven wires,
through which he communicates with Wall st.
with infinitely greater ease than if he was up
on the spet With these wires he can do as
much in one hour as he could in Wall street in
two days. Besides, he does not dare go in Wall
street-his face would be watched by hun
dred jealous, argus eyes, and nferences drawn,
which would prove constant source of annoy
ance. Mr.. Jay Gould is bear on principle,
he does not think we have touched bottom yet
or will for some time to come.
