Climate and

Give New England the climate of
SouthernC alifornia and she would soon
begin tOlose her most precious treasur-'
9s-her patience, prudence, forecast, in
iustry, perseverance, strength and en-
lurance; in brief, her exceptional vi
tality. Our summers are hot and ex-
nausting. 1t is the cold season that
gives to the people of the north their
characteristic force. Every medical
man will tell you that whatever tends
to invigOrate is good for the consump-
tive, and whatever tends to enervate
is bad for him.
1t would seem wrong, then, to re-
move a weak person from an invigor-
ating to an e~nervating climate. This
thought and much observation led
doctors to send their exhausted pa
TENTS to winter in Minnesota and like
localities. OF late they are divided
between warm and cold climates. |
have no doubt that i'll genuine con-
sumption the Northern climate is a
good one. / am sure it is better than
that of Southern California. Though
if the choice be between life in stove
and furnace heat here, and life III the
shade ola peppep tree there, the latter
is better.
But if the choice is between the sweet
air Of open CRATE fires and dressed in
abundant fannels, much life out of
doors in the saddle in all weathers, if
the choice be between these here anda
winter in Southern California, | urge
the patient to remain in New England.
The money required for q journey
across the continent Will fit up his sit
ting-room with open crate and furnish
it with wood or coal. The money re-
CURED to pay board away from home
will supply a saddle-horse and the ex-
ira thickness of wooden garments for
the legs and feet.
Beginning with an hour a day on a
walk, the patient will soon spend FIVE
or six hours a day in the saddle. His
pulse at the beginning is say 100;
within q month it will fall below 80.
Herei is a strongimpulse toward recov-
cry. Twenty years observation
among consumptives in New England,
and three years among consumptives
seeking restoration in California, con-
firm these statements. Those who
find fault with a New Hampshire WIN
ter do not need anew climate so much
as they need new ideas about pure air
and gentle exercise. DR.. Dio Lewis.

Maple Sugar.

At this season of the year maple
sugar is abundant. In order to as
certain something about this product
a reporter of the New York Mail and
Express called on one of the leading
operators in that city. He said that
the sale of maple sugar in New York
aggregates over / 900, 0O0pounds each
year. His House this season alone
handled 200,0 600 pounds.
"What becomes of so large a guam
tity?"
'It is retailed by grocers and con
f%ectioners as maple sugar. But the
larger portion is boiled down into ma
pie strip by manufacturers, who sup
ply it to grocery stores. The can
style of packages has been made at
tractive by means of very handsome
ly decorated labels, which add to the
present neat appearance of fancy
grocery stores. The manufacturing
of strip is confined mainly to
Chicago and this city. For the
last FIVE years there has been a great
demand for maple sirup as adelicious
table food. More and more of it has
been used every year. Why? Because
it is far better than molasses or cane
strip for buckwheat, wheat, or other
cakes, OF which you know q large guam
tity is consumed. 1t is more delicious
and suitable to the palate than the
cane product, because it reither sours
on the stomach nor clogs. The time
is not far distant when the maple sir
up will be used by every family and
every restaurant and hotel"
How do confectioners use it?"
"They use more maple sugar than
sirup. They buy the pure product
and make it into candies of various
varities, for which the sugar is very
suitable. The price OF maple sugar in
cans and tubs is about 2 cents per
pound higher than cane sugar"

A New idea in Coins.

A Pittsburg, Pa, man, in making
q study OF the coinage question has
hit upon a plan that he has promul
gated to the country through PAM
phlets that is noveland would seem to
be worth attention and investigation
on its merits. This plan is TO coin
dollars out ofboth gold and silver in
equal value, making the center of the
coin gold and the outside silver, with
the outside enough thicker to
save the most precious metal in the
center from wearing away. The
protector of tins plan believes such q
device would equalize gold and silver
in coinage, and would put at rest the
specific value OF silver used in coinage
through this association with gold
and at the same time make a dollar
for the future that would not be un-
weildly, and that would be In that
way generally acceptable to the pub
lie. The plan Of this Pennsylvania
man may yet be brought into actual
use; and it is worth watching as it
progresses in obtaining the opinions
Of inanciers and OF financial circles
