Taking Cold,

This vague ''houschOld word" indicates
one or more of Il long, varied train of un-
pleasant affections, nearly always traccablc
TO one or the other of only two causes; sud-
den change of temperature and unequal
distribution OF temperature. No extremes
of heat or cold can alone effect this result;
persons frozen TO death do not "takc cold'
during The process. But if part of the
body be rapidly cooled, az by evaporation
from wet article of clothing, or by sitting
in a draught of air, the rest Of the body re.
manning at an ordinary temperature; or if
the temperature Of the whole be suddenly
changed by going out into the cold, or cs-
pccially ny coming into warm room,
there Is much liability of trouble. There
is an old saylng-"whcn the air comes
through hole, say your prayers to save
your SOUL" and should think almost any
one could get "a cold" with II spoonful of
water, or the wrist held to Il key hole. Sin
gular as it may seem, sudden warming
when cold is more dangerous than the re-
verse. Everyone has noticed how soon the
handkerchief is required on entering q
heated room on cold day. Frost bite IS
an extreme illustration Of this. AS the
lrshman said, on picking himself up, it was
not tho fall, but stopping 50 quickly that
hurt him. 1t is not the lowering of the
temperature to the freezing point. but It's
subsequent elevation that dcvItnliZcs the
tissue. This is why rubbing with snow,
| or bathing in cold water, is required to re-
store safely Il frozen part; the arrested cir
| culatlon must bc very gradually rc-cstab-
lishcd, or inflammation, perhaps morttl-
cation, cnsucs. General precautions against
taking cold arc almost self evident in the
light. There is ordinarily little, if any,
danger to be apprchcndcd from wet clothes
so long rs exercise is kept up, for the
"glow" about compensatcs for the extra
cooling by evaporation. Nor is a COM
plctc drcnching more likely to be injurious
than wetting of one part. But never sit
still wet, and in changing rub the body
dry. There is a general tendency, spring
ing from fatigue, Incidence and indlifcr-
cncc, to neglect damp feet; that is 10 say,
to dry them by the fire. but this process is
tedious and uncertain. l would say csps-
cially, off with muddy boots and soddcn
socks at oncc--dry stockings and slippers,
aftcr hunt, may make just the difference
Of your being able to go ont again or
never. Take care never to check pcrspra-
ton; during this process the body is in =
somewhat critical condition, and sudden
arrest OF the function may result dis
astrously--cvcn fatally. One part of the
business of pcrspiration Is to equallzc bodi-
ly temperature, and 1t must not be inter-
fered with

Indians In Flor. tla,

There are today within tho borders of
Florida abont 250 warriors, and, including
women and children, 800 Indians III all,
divided up into four towns or lodges, over
all Of whom Young Tiger Tail is the chief
lie is about thirty years of age. One Of
the Indian towns is in Polk County, on the
west side Of the Kissimmc River, near Lake
Pierce. These Indians live almost entirely
on the natural resources Of the country, such
as deer, turkey, bear, and fish; they make
from the bud Of the cabbage palmetto and
bamboo bricr root, which they reduce 10 a
pulp by boiling, what may be considered a
substitute for Bread and it is very nutrl-
tious and palatablc. They also have small
patches of sweet potatoes, sugar cane, and
com, but do not rely on the latter produc-
tions. They raise no cattle, but have q
| good stock OF hogs and ponies on the
| range. They dress in primitive style
(tlaps and gowns), and refuse to civilzc,
but are perfectly harmless N0twilhstand.
| ing they live almost entirely without shelter
sickness is almost unknown among them,
and they live to ripe old age. Another
town Is ON Fishcaling Creek, near Lake
Okccchobcc. At this place tho council
meet annually to make laws and punish
crime, and at which meeting Gin Junc)thcy
have their ''grecn-corn dance" Another
town is found on the opposite side of the
Klssimme, at what is known rs ''Alpa-
tioka." Another is near Shacklcford, ON the
Everglades, west side, fifty miles below
the Gallo sahatch River. Another town
on the cast coast near the Mama River.
Over each Of these four towns at the annual
or ''grcen corn d.nce," a chief Is elected or
appointed who reigns supreme for the COM
ing year. The chief thus selected yearly
IS the man who has killed the most bears
during the year, this being tile qualinca-
tion necessary for the candidate. There
arc no people who punish more severely
for either adultery or fornication, by cut
ting the ears and nose of tho man or LASH
Ing publicly the female. TO this grand
council the criminals from all the towns
are brought, tried, and punished. Slavery
still exists in Florida, and the shareholders
are the Seminole Indians, who still hold
several, and would like to purchase more.

Earning II Living.

1t Is very hard to understand how the
mass Of men live in any large city, where
everything, from wink Of sleep to mouth
full OF food, must always be paid for But
it is much harder to understand how women
exc out subsistence for they have far
less strength, inferior health. and generally
much lower wages. 1t is estimated from
reliable sources that some 10000 women
III and about the city of Philadelphia
alone, earn their own living, and that the
number steadily increases from year to
year. They ale Of all grades, from scrv-
ants to fashionable modistes, book keepers,
artists and managers. A number of them
are members of intellectual professions,
such as medicine, journalism, lccturng,
acting. Not few Of them earn good
deal of money, notably actresses, millincrs
and dressmakcrs and often they acquire a
handsome independence. The profits of
actresses are probably higher than those of
any other feminine calling; then come mil
liners, and next drcSsmakcrs. Lecturers
have hitherto made considerable money
Anna Dickinson Cleared, it is said, $4,000
in one year-but recently the public has
cared very little for them, the business hay
ing been ovcrdone and the quality of the
lectures having grown very poor A num-
Ter of womcA who had done very well at 1t
have been obliged to retire from the field
for lack Of patronage. Actresses, on the
contrary, command higher salaries an sc.
cure more lucrative engagements than ever.
But they must have talent, some power of
attraction. They cannot, rs many women
believe, rush upon the stage without any
mental endowment, and get suddenly rich.
Nliiliners and mOdistes, after they have
gained fashionable reputation, thrive ia
mously; but they are necessarily few. The
bulk OF the sex employed as scamstrcsscs
salcswomen, tcachcrs---thc teachers who do
we'll are ccplional-copyists, and the
like, get very mcagcr compensation. 1t is
calculated that OF the 10, 600 feminine
workers, the average earning is not over
81 to 81. so week. How they can pay
their board or purchase food and shelter
with such pittancc cludes comprehension.
And then, it should be remembered that
the majority of them provide for others as
we'll as themselves; for it is general rule
that anybody who can earn money is sure
to have dependents. Ordinary servants, of
whom very few arc American, are said to
be more comfortable than educated and re-
fined laborcrs Of native stock. They get
from ~. 80 to $4 Il week, and have good
food and lodging included, which is q most
important consideration. While many AM
erican women would materially improve
their condition by going into the kitchen,
they shrink from doing SO because it seems
menal, and our born republicans hate to
be mcnias. For woman to earn her own
living is far harder than shows on the sur
face. 10 some women it is little less than
tragical.

sam Houston,

Bowycr Miller, a man of admirable char
actcr and education, when he had con-
cludcd his legal studies decided to cstab-
llsh himself in Tennessee. 1t was soon at =
ter the war Of 18l2-1sl4, and in visiting
the circuit judges TO obtain their certificate
OF professional qualification, he fell in with
Sam Houston, fresh from the campaigns of
Alabama and elsewhere in the gulf States,
III which he had accompanied General
Jackson and who had determined to udopt
the profession Of law. The young men
were at once confidential, and Houston
frankly avowcd his own educational def
cicncies and limited opportunity Of qualify
ing himself, occupied ns he had been for the
few years preceding the eXcitcmcnts of the
war.
'Alillcr," said lie, IL shall tell the Judges
that they needn't expect much learning
from me. We shall be examined at the
same time. If question Of difficulty is
asked don't he bashful; answer it. Leave
those that are easy to me. am not al all
Jealous"
Miller, who was wcll Qualified, was
amused, and promised to do anything III
his power to aid him.
Arriving ut tho residence of the first
Judge, this agreement was kept up. IIous-
ton invariably introduced the examination
by narrative of something connected
with the war, and with jocular admission
Of his own difficulties in pursuing his legal
theories. question having been asked
upon the abslruse common law doctrine of
| eXccutory DEGREES and contingent remind
crs, MIR. Miller modestly repeated the OK
position of his authorities, and the Judge
amplfIicd the reply with remarks upon the
channel of judicial decisions
We are not TO suppose that the cxami-
nations were very technical or strict. At
succeeding examination, however, IIous-
ton in reply to question upon the same
subject took up the reply and repeated the
information that he had acquired, and
when they called on the last judge, Hou-
ston observed that the two preceding cx-
aminatlons must have been satisfactory,
and Judge White gave his signature and
made the young man stay all night.
Within two years from that time Hou-
ston had been elected Gather as State or
District Attorney, while Miller, dscour-
aged at the prospect of his professional
success returned to Virginia.

a Single l{Gan,

The history of a single bean, accident.
ally planted IN a garden at SouthbrIdgc,
Mass, is traced by correspondent, who
figured out Its produce for three years.
The bean was planted in rich, loamy
soil, and when gathered ia the autumn, It's
yield, as counted, was ,515 perfectly de-
vcloped beans from single stalk. Now,
if each bean produces 1916 more, the
sum total of the second years product
would be Q, 800. 225, equal to l, 1916 pounds,
b97 quarts, or $500 army rations equal to
l8s bushels. This would be the product
Of the second year. Now, if we plant this
product and the yield is the same, we have
product of 6,1G8, ,05S, 800, ,626 beans,
equal to 1871 800 tons, or 1881, 572
bushels or 548,75G, 0G8 soldiers rations.
This third planting would give the steam
ship Great Eastern % full frcights.' Few
beans, however, start 80 well as this one
did.

Alarm Telephones.

A Chicago police officer suggests the ad-
dition Of telephone boxes to the system OF
alarm tclcgraphs in Use in our cities. In
connection with the alarm a reserve force
is to be maintained at the stations with
wagons and ambulanccs, and all the para
phcrnalia necessary for riot or accident.
Should 1t be murder, robbery, or any
other crime, the perpetrators of which have
escaped, the alarm is to be- given to every
man in the dist 'ict by sounding large
bell, which is to be placed upon the roof of
the station. Upon hearing this, every Of
ficer on duty is to run to the nearest tcle-
phone box and correspond with the sta
ton; and it Is also proposed that they re-
port by the same meanscvcry hour, whether
anything occurs on their beats or not.

Buffers CONVERSATIONS.

New York, 31.-The United States at
torney, this afternoon, began the prepa-
ration Of bis argument on the motion to
dismiss certain actions now pending in
the United States circuit court against
Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, TO recover in
all S475, 600 damages. John II. Lester,
now Of New York, formerly Of Virginia,
has two actions, one for So, 600 and the
other for 500, 1000 damages During the
war it was discovered that Lester as
sisted in the manufacture OF arms for the
Confederate government, He was tried
by court martial, and sentenced to ten
years imprisonment, with ball and chain,
and the property confscated. T. Il.
Fisk has an action for $500. 600 for prop
erty, Including machinery, molasses and
household utensils confscated. The
motion to dismiss will be made on the
ground thst the defendant acted in ac-
cordsnce with a proclamation Of the Pee.
sident in confscating the property of
plaintiffs, and was therefore not liable to
prosecution for damsges. =------s'-=--==--=------
