PHILOSOPHY OF COLDS.

 Protection Against Them.

Protection Against Them.
 Says Prof. Woodbury, of the Medico- Chirurgical College of Philadelphia: 'Ifthere is any thing calculated to take all the brightness out of the sunshine, all the sayor out of our food, and all the sweetness out of our life, it is cold in the head He presents some thoughts in it's philosophy, the sub stance of which may interest the mighty host of sufferers.
 In every case there are two factors, an irritant and a susceptibility of the system. Amongthe irritants are micro scopic germs taken in from without, as in influenza, and certain pOisOns which are developed from pad nutrition or imperfect assimilation within the body, and which it is the otiee of the liver to destroy. Indeed, the effects of the two causes are essentially the same, for the germs act by generating certain vio- lent poisons, which irritate the mucous membrane of the nostrils, pharynx, lungs, stomach or bowels.
 As to susceptibility to colds, healthy body, under ordinary circumstances, has very little of it. But sudden eli matic changes may induce it. Horses, brought from the West, often have q discharge from the nostrils which lasts about s;x months. A ships crew who had been perfectly healthy while ab- sent several months on the Alaska coast, were all, on their return taken down with a cold in the head. Of an audience going out into a bleak atmos- phere from a close. warm room. cer- tain portion will take cold. These have the requisite susceptibility; the rest are happily Cree from it. In all cases of this special susceptibility there is a lowering of tn1 nutrition, certain depraved or depressed coldition The luxurious and indol4at are as liable to it as the poor, and tLoso whose sur roundings are bad.
 A normal condition of the II sin is the chief protection agn'ust a cold, Three fourths of the sufferers from catarrhal pneumonia or chronic bronchitis are found to b. in the habit of neglecting the skin. Their skin has become de- graded. and k no longer a protective covering for the body. The skin needs to be hardened by tn. Use of the hesh- brush, the cold dnuche, the air bath, and by frequent change of undcrcloth- ing. Active exercise needs to be added to keep tho tissues from clog ging Tno time to cure the patient is before he gets the cold. Youlb's Con- paNt0H.

Herein Is Love.


Herein is love--to take this strange, sweet
thing
That we call life, and for loves sake to fling
1t to that outer darkness men deem death,
That love may have a longer, sweeter breath;
To face with unaffrighted hearts the gloom,
The terror and the agony of doom.
Herein is love-to lift another's cross,
To give away the gold and keep the dross,
To trample into dust the worm of self,
To crowd its clam rings on the souls back
shelf;
Nor let it ever dare upraise its head
Deny its every call till it lies dead.
Herein is love-to strip the shoulders bare,
If need be, that frazier one may wear
A mantle to protect it from the storm,
To bear the frost kings breath, so one be
warm,
To crush the tears it would be sweet to shed,
And smile SO others may have joy instead.
Herein is love-to daily sacrifice
The hope that to the bosom closest lies,
To mutely bear reproach and suffer wrong,
Nor lift the voice to show where both belong;
Nay, now, nor tell it cen to God above,
Herein is love, indeed-herein is love.

Among the mines here is the Sunset, which
was discovered two years ago by Miss Nina
lngraham, q stepdaughter of Mr. Meylette
Wandering out from camp one day, she re-
turned with few specimens which she had
picked up. Her mother deemed them worth
investigation, and the same afternoon Miss
Ingraham went with her father in quest of
the place where she had found the ores.
Clambering up the side of cliff with the
grace of mountain gazelle, she stopped
down and marked the spot just as the sun
was sinking behind the distant ridge of the
