Keep the Feet warm.

Many of the colds which people are
said to catch commence at the feet.
To keep these extremities warm,
therefore, is to effect an Insurance
against the almost ipterminsble list
Of disorders which spring out of q
'islight cold" First never be tightly
shod. Boots or shoes, when they fit
closely, press against the foot, and
prevent the free circulation OF the
blood. When, on the contrary, they
do not embrace the foot too tightly,
the blood gets fair play, aud the spaces
left between the leather and stock
ings are filled with comfortable sup
ply of warm air. The second rule is
never sit in damp shoes. IL is Of
ten imagined that unless they are
positively wet it is not necessary to
change them while the feet are at
rest. This is fallaey (; for when the
least dsmpness is absorbed into the
sole it is attracted further to the foot
itself by its own heat, and thus per-
spiration is dangerously checked,
Any person may prove this by trying
the experiment OF neRleeting the rule.
and his feet will become cold aud
damp after a few moments, although,
taking off the shoe and warming il,
it will appear quite dry--RHrdL NetD

The Continental Railway proieet-
IN which Akron, as one of the points
ou the proposed line, is very much in
teIested-thOngh having apparently
slulhDeIeu Tor some time, is by no
means dead, as recent advices from
washington conclusiyely show. A
dlspateh IN yesterdays New York
IFt6ltle, says The House Commit
tee on Railways and Canals have pre-
pared substitute for the bill provid-
ing tor double-tTack freight railway
from New York to Chicago, st. Louis.
and Council Bluffs. It requires the
company to complete its road in three
years, and carry freight at five mills
per ton per mile for $50 miles and over.
and at q sha1e higher prices for
shorter distances appoints Govern
ment Commission to supervise ex-
penditures in the construction and
operation OF the road, requiring it to
reduce the rates whenever the net
earnings exceed eight per cent. per
annum upon the actual outlay Of capi-
tai, and to prevent combinations from
preventing the objects Of the bill. The
Commission is lequired to cast vote
at all stockholders meetings equal TO
the total shares represented.
The Company is to mortgage its
property, now valued at s. 900, 600, to
the Government, with all that it may
hereafter acquire, and to pay all in
terest as it natures, and also the prin-
cipai by means OF q sinking fund, q
default Of which works q foreclosure
of the mortgage, the property revert
ing to the Government, which is to
guarantee interest at five per cent. on
the bonds of the Company at the rate
OF 81. 600 per mile of the contemplated
road to be issued to the company as
each 20 miles is completed.
The value of the Company's prop
erty, consisting of the equivalent OF
225 miles OF single track, grading, and
bridging ready for the iron, with
rights-Of-way, terminal and other
franchises purchased, is stated at S3,-
OOO,OOO, sum equal to the interest
upon the entire issue of bonds to be
guaranteed for a single year, aud will
Accumulate as the road is completed in
double proportion of the value of the
face of the bond to be issued, giving
the Government, it is claimed by the
projectors of the road, perfect security
from the start, which will increase In
the same proportion as the construe-
tion progresses. It is further clsimed
that while giving cheap trsnsporta-
ton, it will only require the Iosu of
the Government credit, as it is said
the calculations Of railroad experts
confirm the ability of such a road to
carry at the prices named in the bill.

That Dog.

"It is better to have the good will
than the ill-will of dog"
Many years ago was visiting at the
house of relative in the country.
The Railroad connecting Baltimore
with Philadelphia passed through the
place, and some of the trains would
stop at the kitchen-garden gate long
enough for passengers to alight. We
were all sound sleepers, and were sell
dom disturbed by the rumble of pass
ing cars or the whistle of the lOcomo-
tive.
Upon coming down to breakfast one
morning, We were considerably sur
prised to find that a visitOr-the faith
er of my host-had arrived during the
night. In answer to inquiries as to
how he had managed to gain admit
tance to the house without the knOWl-
edge of its inmates, be replied
81 rang the bell and struck the
knoeker, and, when those failed to
arouse any Of the household, I climb
ed upon the roof Of the back piazza,
and tried the windows until I came
across one which was not fastened.
Fortunately, this belonged to an unoc-
cupied be iroOm, where 1 slept COM
fortably for the remainder of the
night.
"But where were the new dogs ?''
inquired our host. "YOu were q stran-
ger to them and, knowing what
fierce fellows they are, / should think
they would have torn you to pieces
rather than hFve allowed you to enter
the house in that way"
81 suppose they would" the old
gentleman answered, "if it had not
been for old Dash. The dogs came
growing toward me as soon as I ap-
peared in the gateway, and held
back, afraid to venture nearer, until |
remem bered Dash, the old setter, who
1 hoped, might still be living, and able
to hear me. 1 called "Dash Dash n'
quickly, and at the top of my voice.
He came forward from mis- kennel as
fast as the infirmity of age would per-
NIT, gave me q hearty welcome, in
troducec me to the new dogs and ex-
planned to them that all was right, |
suppose for they not only allowed
me TO pass, but escorted me to the pi-
azZa, and quietly watched until was
safely through the window"
So you see that the good will of q su-
perannuated dog, who seemed to have
Outlived his usefulness, proved of great
service to this gentleman. 1t is well
worth while to make friends even of
the lowly.-Ssiloidy School Advocate.

MASONRY.
Report or the Proceedings or the
Grand Lodge or Ohio, by Z. W.
Grand Secretary John D. Caldwell.

Grand Secretary John D. Caldwell.
The proceedings of the Grand Lodge
OF Free and Accepted MasOns of Ohio
have been published in a handsome
volume of over two hundred pages.
In addition to the proceedings of the
last annual Grand Communication,
the book contains a list of all the
grand officers in the State address OF
the Grand Master ; returns OF Lodges
for 1874 cash receipts and pay roll /;
time of meeting of Masonic Lodges Of
Ohioi code of Masonic Jurisprudence,
and long and comprehensive report
of the committee on Foreign COmmu-
nications by John D. Caldwell, Grand
Secretary. Among much other inter-
esting statistical and historical infor-
nation in this report, the following
sketch Of the original "BrOther J0na-
than" will be found of general inter-
est f: Jonathan Belcher was 8 son OF
the wealthiest merchant in Boston,
and after graduating at Harvard Col
lege, he sailed for England in the
spring of 100, to increase his COM
mercial correspondence and expand
his mind. His social position and
graces gave him eRtree into refined So
ciety and to the court of King Will
liam III. He became intimate with
the venerable Sir Christopher Wren,
who was an enthusiast in Masonry,
and had initiated the King into the
"rOyal art" Jonathan visited Hol-
land and became companion of the
young Elector of Hanover, who sfter-
ward became George II Of England
The young man qualified himself In
the then rude Masonic ritual, and
with Sir Christopher inspected the
works which sprung up after the fire.
In 1702, the year Jonathan became q
Mason, the King fell from his horse
and died. The handsome Yankee
youth was in the funeral cortege, wear
ing Masonic collar and Jewel, and
was pointed at by the people as
brother Jonathan" Familiarity call
ed by the old King. The Electress
Sophia was so struck by his appear
ance that she caused u gold medal to
be struck and placed on the neck of
"Brother Jonathan" He soon after
returned to Boston, became interested
in Masonry, carried forward improve
ments in his native town, and was
the most popular man Of the day

WOman'S Position at Table.

In Queen Elizabeth's time, the fash
ion came into vogue of placing the princi
pal joints and pieces ofmeats of the head
of the table, above the salt, in order
that the chief guests might regale
their eyes with the promise of good
cheer before them, and also be conven-
iently served to the choicest cuts. This
custom involved the necessity of cary
ing the meat after they had reached
the table; therefore the ladies were in
vited to sit at the head of the board,
that they might perform the service
which had before been delegated to the
professional carver 1t was thus from
no desire t. compliment the fair sex
that woman was in the beginning, pro-
NOTED to the most honorable place at
the table. 1t was for the selfish conven-
fence of her lord, and not for her own
dignity, that the position was accorded
to her, and as, in medieval society, she
ministered to her guests by preparing
dishes for their enjoyment, often bear
ing them to the table herself, SO she
now, III this capacity of carver, con
timed in the rank of servitor: But,
with the tact which is her distinguish
ing characteristic, she has gradually
converted the carver's stool into a
throne of state, and assumed the right
to preside over the company through
an Office which originally authorized
her only to help them to food.

Experiments in Feeding sIiIch Cow.


Mitch cows require a large proper
ton of saccherine and oleaginous
matter to be deposited in their tissues.
or secreted IN milk. Potatoes are found
to increase the proportion of butter in
the milk of a COW that feeds upon them,
their starch being converted into fatty
matter. 1t has been proved by expert
ment that the proportion of butter In
the milk of a COW allowed to feed
during the day in pasture, and shut
up at night in warm stall was much
greater in the morning milk than in the
evening; the former containing Sc
parts of butter in 100, and the latter 2. 7
parts. This was evidently due to the
diminished demand for the materials
for respiration during the night, when
the body was at rest, and the skin kept
warm. An experiment was tried of
keeping COW in shed during the day,
and feeding her with grass, and the
proportion of butter in her evening
milk rose to B. i parts in 100. But this
plan diminished the proportion of
caseine, or cheesy matter in the milk,
which was increased by allowing the
the COW to pasture in the open field.
Hence it appears that house feeding is
favorable to the production of butter,
and pasturing to that of cheese.
