Nervous Origin OF Colds.
Chambers Journal .

Whenever, owing to an derangment of
the nervous system, the perfect mainten-
ance of animal heat fails to be carried out,
disorder ensues, the m1dest form of which
is a caterrh, namely, the blocking up of
the skin or outer surface of the body,
the consequent transference of the excre-
tion to the mucous or inner surface. The de-
Ieteroas matter which ought to have been
removed by the skin, irritates the blood
by its retention there, and ultimately ex-
ponds itself by the nose and throat. For
example, if the nervous system be feeble,
sweating would probably be reduced, and
a consequent loss of heat, espective of
the needs of the body; in which case a
cold would most probably follow. As a
fact there are many people with feeble
nerves who readily perspire in the coolest
weather, and are in consequence liable to
frequently recurring colds. The nervous
origin of colds also furnishes Us with a
clew 10 its treatment in the early stages.
The whole history of cold shows it to be
essentially and primarily state of col
lapse, demanding early recourse to g
slim ulatipg plan of treatment. There is
no more detected mortal than patient
in the first stage of cold, and both his
physical and mental point to nervous col
lapse. Hence We believe the great sue
cess of camphor and amonia inhalations
in the early stage. Il has also been re-
peatedly found that two or three glasses
of wine have cut & oold short, when taken
ct the first appearance of the SYMPTOMS.

product of a population before the rams
were separated from the ewes in the fail.
and there was seldom any trouble IN rails

Is of more value ia proportion to the
food consumed than that OF any other
stock, which fact led to the Spanlsh prov

u p to this time the mutton sheep have
not commanded the attention of this
country which they have in Great Britain
or in Canada. Our people have not
learned as yet to appreciate the value of
mutton In comparison with other meats
as an article of food. But they are learn
ing now, and prime mutton is going to
be more in demand than ever before.
Through the enterprise of importers and
breeders, all the valuable breeds of NUT
ton sheep are becoming well represented
IN this country, and breeding animals,
either for raising pure bred or crossing
with the native, are becoming avanable
for any who desire them. Sheep bred so
rapidly that, sterling with a purebred
buck and native ewes, it takes bus few
years to produce threefourths or seven
eights grades which for mutton product
ion are scarcely inferior to pure blood.

Guernsey Cattle.

The Cincinnati Enquirer, in its answers
to correspondents, gives the following
description of this noted breed of
cattle:
This breed of cattle has long been
famed for its cream and butter prod &C
ing qualities, and it is also eminently
adapted for the shambles, when from age
or other causes, these valuable properties
fail to be profitable. They are e1qui-
sitely delicate in form and in color,
varying from light red to lemon ar d
orange fawn, occasionally black, almost
all having a considerable admixture of
white. In individual cases it is black, en-
circled with light colored hair.
The most approved points of 8 Guern-
sey may be considered to be as follows:
Head small but long, eye bright, lively,
but placid; horn. small and well turned
upward, being fine, yellow and waxy at
the bases; ears small and thin, with fine
thin hair and deep golden color inside;
nostrils open; neck long and slender,
tspering toward the heed; shoulders
thin; forequarters light; limbs delicate
back straight and broad behind; tail fine
aud thin, set On DIT right angles with the
back; hide thin and mellow to touch
carcass deep and well down; hind quar-
tiers full and large; Gdder capacIous,
broad and square, well in line with the
belly and stretching well forward, not
fesh!, silky with fine down or hair; milk
veins very large and prominent; teats
large and struting outward and vel
apart; the general figure com pact, wedge
shaped; skin tinged with aeep orange
yellow throushoa especially marked in
side the pastern joint. To these essen
tial points may be added those Is shown
by the Guenon theory, snd which when
properly understood and applied are
most valuable as indicative of milk-pro
ducing qualities.

CHAPTER XIX.-uOME AGAIN,

"There they are-there's Maxi" cried
Lady Elinor Beauregard to her husband,
rs the Plymouth train clauked slowly into
Pactdington station, and the people who
had collected on the platform-some wait
ing for friends, others attracted by having
heard that some of the Egyptian officers
were coming by this train-pressed eagerly
forward. Several officers were among the
crowd, ready to welcome their comrades,
and there was Il sudden waving OF hands
and loud 'hurrah!' as bronzed faces look
ed smiling from the carriage windows.
Another minute, and scarlet and blue,
and black, were mingled together, and
everybody seemed shaking hands with
everybody else and there were stitled sobs
from women, and mems voices were sus-
piciously husky: while men and boys who
had nobody to shake hands with, played
chorus, and cheered Justify.

Sense Organs of Insects
Murray's Magazine.

In the matter of sense organs we are
met by serious difficulties of interpre-
tation, and this difficulty is the more
the more keenly felt in studying creatures
so widely different from ourselves as the
bee. Such an insect would seem at first
sight to be about as susceptible to the
delicaoies of touch as an ancient armor
sheathed knight. Head, thorax, abdomen,
limbs, all are ensheathed chitinous armor.
Nhe bee has his skeleton outside. The
question Is, how can delicate impressions
of touch be transmitted through the
tough, dense skin so as to affect the
sensitive squash" within? II you will
examine one of the feelers of the bee you
will see that the surface is richly sup
piled with hairs. 1t is by means of such
sense hairs that the bee experiences a
sensation of touch. Each hair is hollow
and within it is protopla.mic flament
containing, it woald seem, the delicate
terminal threaded of nerve. A curiors
modification of the touch hair is found
on the last joint of the autenD@. They
are here bent sharply at right angles so
as to form rectangular booklets.
