Hints on; the Care ct Health.
1. Diet This should :be pure and
wholesome, and of a mixed character. 1t
should also be moderate as to quantity
and regular, allowing neither too long
nor too short intervals between meals.
2. Exercise. Daily exercise is necessa-
ry to the enjoyment of good health, and,
if possible. should be taken where the air
| is pure and free frcm. smoke and other
| impurities. The best forms of exercise
are walking, riding, rowing, etc. When
outdoor exercise is imPracticable,. the
dumb bells may be advantageous!y sub
stituted. 8. Pare air. The thorough
ventilation of the house or rooms we live
in is another essential TO health, and
must on no account be neglected. Nothing
is so conducive to Sickness as hot and
stuffy rooms and this remark is especially
applicable to the bedroom, which should
be of sufficient size, permitting free
current of pure air to pass through IL
during the hours when IL is not occu-
pied.
And hers it may not he out of place
to observe that it is not sufficient to open
doors leading into passages or staircas9s,
which may contain all The bad air of the
house: neither does il do 10 open
windows looking into confined and inn
pure places. Ventilation, TO be of service,
must permit OK the exit OF the bad air I'm
lsueh way that il cannot re-enter, and of
the admission of the pure air from the
best source without. 4. Clothing. This
should be comfortable only, too much
wrapping UP being quite as prejudicial
to health as too little. 1t should be adj
apted to the season Of the year, and
should always, in this country, include
:hick Undertaking in the winter and
light for the summer; tue feet also should
be well protected by warm stockings and
strong boots. The custom of placing
thick layers of flannel on the chest In the
form of chest protector is very much to
be deprecated, except in the case of
really delicate p eopla. g. The bath.
This IS valuable adjunct to health,
and should be taken during the summer
months, and with the COLL taken Off the
balance of the year. 4 warm soap and
water bath should be taken at beo time
once week or once q fortnight; or a
Turkish bath may be enjoyed by those
who can indulge in the luxury, care being
taken not tn drive, but to walk brlskly
home afterwards, IF the distance be not
! too great .. A b&im temperament.
Those who are so constituted, OF who
have sufficient command over themselves
as to preserve this condition, have avalu'
able adjunct to health, as there is perhaps,
nothing so prejudiclal 10 this age of over
work, both OF brain and body, as the
worries and anxieties OF every day life.
The easy going, even tempered man, must
digest his food better, and is less affected
by the daily wear and scar of life than
the passionate, impetuous and impatient
man, and will live longer. z. Rest and
amusement These are essentials to
health hence the proverbs, "fou cannot
burn the candlo at both ends" and "All
work and no play make Jack dull boy.
The want of rest may endanger life,
Jacks dullness will end in sickness.
CARING fo% .HtLk.-1. Never, under
any circumstances, put pail OF milk
into your can bsfore straining. One pail
of unstraine6 milk may sfoil whole can
and one can of impure milk will certainly
iniure all milk or cream with which 1T
comes in contact. In the name OF de-
cency we beg OF every patron to be par
ticular about milking add properly strain
ing his milk.
3. Cans containing milk should never
be kept in milking barn during the
night. The scent of the stable (however
we'll kept, will inIure the milk and spoil
the nice havor fresh butter should have.
An open shed, little distance from the
barn, your woodshed, or cool kitchen,
is the only proper place for keeping milk
over night.
g. Insist that your milking is done in
cleanly manner. Too much pains can
not be taken in this particular. Careless
ness here wiz entail great loss on the
manufactured and insult the consumer.
a. Bed your cows with sawdust, II
possible; it will keep your COWS clean
and the stable sweet ~
5. Dopot, under (eqy circumstances
, leave your pals and strainer at the barn
over night. Please carry them to the
: house and insist that they be properly
} washed botl morning and evening
Much depends on this
6. Use only tin pals for milking.
Z. Tin strainer pals are the best for
|, straining milk. Same dairymen use
strainer pals end also a cloth stretched
across the can, thus straining the mix
twice. We adyise this double straining
of milk. 1t costs you but little trouble
while it will greatly add to the value OF
the butter and cheese made rom your
milk--Amertcan DGirg1sdn.
