cumstances and conditions is comprised
in discretion aud good Judgment. Dis
erection does not display itself in words,
but through all manner of action, and
serves to guide us in all the concerns
of life. There are many more shining
qualities in the mind OF man, but none
so useful as discretion. 1t is this CHAR
acterlstc which gives color and force
to all the rest Without discretion
learning is afiectalion, and wit i'm,
pertiuence; virtue, like weakness, and
a mans best parts only qualify him TO
be more conversant with error, and
more active to his own prejudice. Dis.
erection not only gives IA man control
over his own actions, but over those
of Others, The discreet man discov>
ers the talent of those with whom he
associates, and knows their proper pur>
poses. A man without discretion,
despite the possession ofgreat learning,
is strong, but blind; though possessed of
powerful parts, can find for them no
use, being devoid of perception.
Though a man possess all other per-
fections, if he lack discretion, he can
be ofno great consequence in the world;
on the contrary, if he possess this
single trait, and but common share of
other talents, he may become almost
what he pleases in his chosen vocation.

ANDARD- MEANWHILE TENNEssEE-sATURDAY MAR 28 1883

F, Shrady, who were present, made
thorough examination of the Gen
eraP throat, with view of discussing
the expediency of a radical surgical
operation for the removal of the
growth. Such a measure would in
volve the division Of the lower jaw
in the median line, the eXtirpation Of
the entire tongue, and the greater
part Of the soft palate, together with
the removal of the liberated and in
filtrated fauces, and the indurated
glandular structures under the right
angle of the lower jaw. This was
considered mechanically possible, des-
pite the close proximity and probable
involvement of the tissues adjoining
the large arteries and veins in the
neighborhood of the alterations but
in the best interests ofthe distinguish
ed patient the surgeons did not feel
inclined to recommend the procedure.
Even by such means there could be
no guarantee, i'll view Of the extern
sive surrounding utilization, that the
limits of the disease could be reached
without immediate risk to life by
the severe shock to a constitution al
ready much enfeebled. The low vi
tai power is such a strong element in
the decision that, for the present at
least, no kind of operation will be
undertaken. The liberation on the
side Of the tongue has not progressed
far enough to produce the usual in
tolerant pain associated with that
condition, but should the latter symp-
tom appear, it may be deemed advis-
able to divide the gastatory nerve.
The general tone of the patients
system remains about the same as at
last report, Notwithstanding he has
suffered much from insomnia. The
latter, within the last day or two,
has been kept under control by a
suitable anodyne. There is no pain in
swallowing, and sufficient food is ia
ken with a reasonable relish.

Spring Winds and Colds

A c. Sage, in American Agriculturist.
Our early spring weather is pecu-
liarly trying to delicate persons, and no
one who has any affection of the chest,
or bronchial tubes, should expose hm>
self to high winds, especially those
that blow from the north Or east, AS
a rule, still, cold weather will never
hurt any one, if properly clothed, but
if moderate weather is accompanied by
cold Winds, then beware. Nervous
people will usually find headache
and general depression of the whole
system to be the result of walk on
a cold, damp, windy day. But there
are many whose business calls them
out in all weathers, and to these we
would say, take the greatest pains to
tone up the system so as to resist cold,
and protect the body against sudden
changes. Chest protectors of silk, cha
mois skin, Or even layers Of newspa-
pers, should be worn both back and
front, for the lungs lie nearer the
shoulders than the chest. 1t is the
food digested that supports life. 1t is
a good plan, too, to dash the neck,
chest and arms every morning with
cold water, rubbing them vigorously
afterward, with rough towel dipped
in alcohol. Hot baths should only be
taken at night and the cold ones
in the morning. When a creepy,
chilly sensation is felt, and the first
symptoms of cold appear, three OR
four drops of camphOr on a lump of
sugar or in water will often produce
a reaction, and frequently ward off the
threatened attack. Healthful sleep is
natures great restorer and this should
always be procured, but by rational
means alone; narcotics, except in ex,
IRENE cases, are always to be avoided.
A biscuit, bowl Of oatmeal porridge,
or glass of warm milk, taken on re
firing, will aid in drawing the blood
from the brain, and produce sweet,
healthy drowsiness. Bedrooms should
be we'll ventilated and comfortable,
and the bed-clothes warm, but moi
heavy. 1t is said that colds are often
contracted in bed, and those with weak
chests will do we'll to wear the lung
protector at night, as well as by day,
as the portion of the frame most fire.

Relief from the First Application

When person has suffered the un-
told agonies of rheumatism and neu-
ralgia twenty-five years, when physi-
clans have failed, and when liniment
cures at one application, the fact ought
to cause thinking people to pause, and
consider if a bottle OF it ought not to
be in immediate readiness in every
household for the instant cure of the
aches and pains that affiict mankind.
Such was the evidence of G. M. San
ders, of Madison, Ala, and there are
volumes of other testimonials of like
character to certify that 'Mansfeld's

ems the time of labor
and lessons the intensi-
Ity of pain, but better
than all, it greatly di-
Iminishes the danger to

highly favorable to
speedy recovery, and
far less liable to food
ing, commissions, and
other alarming symp.
toms incident to linger-

Its truly wonderful eff
cacy in this respect en-,
