The Skin.

The skin is wonderful beyo yond concep-
tion in the multiplicity OF its parts, and
in its diverse offices and relations. Mil
lions OF nerves connect it with the brain.
Thousands of arteries bring to il nOur-
| iShment, and almost as many veins bear
away the waste. Millions of ducts
empty out the perspiration upon it. In
Vulnerable glands anoint it with q lub-
ricating oil, and countless little scales
are constantly thrown from its surface.
SO intimate and powerful is its con-
nectlon with the nervous centers, that
une kind OF emotions instantly blanches
it, and another kind mantles ii with a
burning blush-the first contracting its
vessels, the other dilating them.
The skin has its peculiar diseases, but
many of its ailments come from it's readi-
ness to help other organs which are dis
eased or torpid, for it exceeds all others
in this "vicarious power.
The skin is double. The outer-epi-
dermis protects the nerves and vessels
OF the inner from rude contact with, and
from the absorption of, poisonous or
harmful substances. To vaccinate we
have to break throu Oh the epidermis.
So, too, when this is sound, it is safer ia
handle morbid matter; but to do so with
the slightest scratch, or chafe, is some.
times to incur death in its most frightiul
form.
Warmth applied to the surface dilates
the blood vessels of the skin, and cold
contracts them. Hence, warm bath
soothes and refreshes, By drawing the
blood to the surface; local lamentations
over an inhamed spot within relieve the
pain by drawing away the blood. A
counter-irritant acts on essentially the
same principle.
Cold applied to the surface for q brief
time contracts the vessels, and crowds
the blood back, which then returns with
accumulated force, producing health
ful glow. If the vitality is low, this re-
action does not take place, and the cold
only harms.
Generally only the purest soap (castile)
should be used in washing the hands, as
the alkali of most soaps tends to DESTROY
the epidermis.
No bathing of the whole body should
be protracted beyond few minutes, else
the good effect OF it is lost, even if seri-
Gus harm is not done. Sea bathing is
additionally beneficial from the stimula-
ting effect of its salts You.h's Compa,a-
ion.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1880-10-07
Keep Ahead.

One of the grand secrets of success in
lie is to keep ahead in all WAYS possible,
II you once fall behind, it may be very
difhcult to make up the headway which
IS lost. One who begins with putting
aside some part of his earnings, how
ever small, and keeps it up for mum.
per OF years, is likely to become rich be-
fore he dies. One who inherits prop
eFty, and goes on year by year spending
a little more than his income, will be-
come poor if he lives long enough.
Living beyond their means has brought
multitudes of persons 10 ruin in our
generation. 1t is the cause of nine
lenths of all the defalcations which
have disgraced the age. Bankers and
business men in general do not often
help themselves to other peoples money
until their own funds begin to fall off,
and their expenditures exceedl their re-
celpts. A man who is in debt walks in
tae midst OF perils. 1t cannot but i'm
pair mans self-respect to know that
he is living at the expense of others. It
Is also very desirable that we should
keep somewhat ahead in our wolk.
his may not be possible in all cases !;
as, Tor instance, when a mans work is
assigned to certain fixed houls, Ike that
II the operatives in n mill. But there
are certain classes of people who can
choose their time for the work which
they are called 10 do. and amongst them
there are some who invariably put off
the task assigned them as long as posi-
PIE, and then come to its performance
married, perplexed, anxious, confused
IN sucn state of mind as certaialy un-
hts them for doing their best work.
Get ahead and keep ahead and your
uocess Is tolerably sure.
