At certain seasons of the year nearly
every person suffers to great or less ex'
tent from impurity of the blood, bilious
ness, etc, etc. This should be remedied
as soon as discovered, otherwise serious

REMARkABLE WALKING CANE.
The Artistic Workmanship Of Half Breed

The Artistic Workmanship Of Half Breed
Indian sixty-six Years Old.
Mr.. Isaac Estill. ESQ.,, Of Winchester.
Tenn. was in the city, and had with
him quite . curiosity in the way of .
walking cane, as well as q curious spec
linen Of rnral ingenuity and workman
ship. The stick was hickory sprOut
taken from Lookout Mountain in 1880,
fifty-six years ago, by one Foster. .
hall breed Indian from the hills of Geor-
gia. Foster was evidently gifted by
nature with talent for carving wood,
as is evidenced by the work referred to.
The staff is mounted with the head
and beak of an eagle, resting upon the
top of what is said to BIZ remarkably
fine likeness of himself carved by his
own hands. Below these heads are a
series of Masonic emblems, a rattle
snake. rose leaf and twig, lion, wild
duck, turtle, trout, another snake,
sheaf of wheat, bundle of sticks, a
panther, an elephant, gartish, an owl,
q rabbit, squirrel and pipe. All of
these figures were carved in the hard
wood, and notwithstanding the fact
that the work was executed more than
. half century ago, it is well preserved,
and will be kept by its owner and
handed down to his posterity as relic
well worth the keeping.-Nashvtlle

HOW TO WARM ROOMS.
The Draught That Comes from the Gold
Side Of a Window.

Side Of y Window.
Frequently the chilly feeling that one
experiences from the window-ward side
as one sits in room is caused, not by
current of cold air setting from the
window to the fire, but by the GOODNESS
OF the window itself. For this latter,
being kept at low temperature by
contact with the outside air, draws the
heat from the body, or rather the heat
radiates from the body to the window,
the temperature of the air in
between making no difference to
this transference, in accordance
with a well-known property Of
radiant heat. For instance, the air in
q room may be quite hot, and yet a
large window, however air-tight, will
make itself unpleasantly felt on cold
day, just as on board ship the propin-
guilty OF an iceberg is announced ny
lowering of temperature. A screen in
terposed between the window and any
one exposed to its malign influence will
often afford great relief, and one rea-
son why rooms SO frequently feel more
comfortable in the evening is that the
cold glass is effectually shut off behind
the closely drawn curtains and blinds.
In countries where the winters are
habitually severe the advent of frost is
usually the signal for the fixing up Of
inner windows, the layer of air between
these and the outer ones forming an ex-
cellent barrier to the escape Of heat,
owing to its low conductive power.
Cold walls also induce sense of chilli
ness, but if they are properly built there
should be no difficulty in keeping them
warm on the inside.
The experiment has sometimes been
tried of warming rooms by means of hot
air only, but the result has never been
good, and for this reason-that, in order
to warm the walls to the requisite degree,
the air must be far hotter than is healthy
or agreeable for breathing. In fact the
principle is wr' ny; the air should not
warm the walls, but the walls should
warm the air. An open fire acts in this
latter way. The rays of heat from it

and produce no effect till they impinge
on the walls, furniture and carpet Of the
room. These, being thus gently warmed
communicate their heat by contact to
the air about them; and in this way,
while the objects in the room are raised
TO sufficient temperature, the air is not
rendered unpleasant by being over.
heated. We see then that our favOrite
open fires have much to recommend
them, whatever may be said about their
wastcfulness, and as regards health and
comfort they are much better than close
stoves. which, though they radiate theil
warmth, also heat the air in contact
with them and are apt TO do 80 to ex'
