One Thing and Another.

A clear, vivid complexion is the sign and
result of daily bathing, out door exercise and
plain, healthful food.
Silk thread, says Sanitary News, is soaked
in acetate of lead to increase its weight, and
persons who pass it through the mouth in
threading needles, and then bite it off with
the teeth, have suffered from lead poisoning.
The habitual drinking of boiled water would
insure escape from sickness and death to
thousands of the human race yearly, says Dir.
7. G. Currie.
DR.. Hibbard, of Virginia, regards easy fit
ting clothing as a necessity in the prevention
of consumption.
Foreign substances in nose or ears, of
course, demand removing. But unless you
are sure of success don't attempt it yourself,
and by pushing She obstacle out of reach
make bad matter worse. Call on surgeon
at once, advises DR.. A. A. Whitfield.
The weight of evidence, according to a
medical writer, seems to prove that those
who wear the beard are less subject to colds,
sore Threats, bronchitis, coughs and consump-
ton, than those who shave. The Jews, Turks,
and certain tribes who never shave, are COM
parauyely free from these disorders.

A special feature of the trousseau of the
Princess Sophie, of Prussia, is the attractive
ness and elegance of the underwear The
whole assortment, though of Berlin produc-
ton, is thoroughly English in appearance,
most likely at the empress request. Every
article is the best of its kind, elegant, but not
snowy, and testifies to refined taste The
chemiseS are of white Chinese silk and finest
German linen, ornamented partly with hand
embroidery and partly with costly lace;
whereas the nightgowns, of silk or the finest
cambria, show different styles, lace frillings
being predominant. Where embroidery is
resorted to, light pink or sky blue effect is
produced by batiste Innings. The drawers
are generally Of the same material and in
character with the chemises, hand embroid-
cred and ornamented with beautiful lace.
The embroidery of the linen and batiste
handkerchiefs is, of course, most artistic,
though simple. As to the bed linen, it might
have been made by first class London house,
and may have been copied from English
patterns; whereas the table linen would be
certain to gain the admiration of many an
English lady. Manufactured of the finest
linen damaSk, the sets for six have, for ex-
ample, magnificent small designs Every
article is marked with the letter ''Sn and
royal crown, and is particularly distinguished
by desire to avoid any display. The empress
mother, who made the design of most of the
embroideries, insisted upon simple, unas-
Stunning taste, and, whilst favoring German
industry, ordered the pure English style to be
carried out.

In the German observance of Christmas
there is child, or occasionally even young
girl, attired to represent the infant Jesus,
whom German lads and laSses are taught to
regard the donor of the various gifts scat
tered about the glistening green boughs. And
in the love of Christmastide, everywhere cur
rent, the active interference Of the Christ
child or some kindly saint on behalf of the
Juveniles Is very prominent characteristic,
and lends ready countenancs to customs
which not only excite curiosity, expectation
and gratitude, but prepare young hearts for
a wider comprehension in after years of the
true spirit of the festival.
The popular tradition makes st. Nicholas
the especial patron of boys and girls. He APP
pears an old man with a venerable beard,
and with a basket of presents on his arm, not
forgetting the further outfit OF bundle of
rods for the scapegraces in his large bevy of
clients. From house to house he goes, inquir-
ing, blessing, admonishing and leaving be-
hind him comforts or rods, as the case may
demand. In the Netherlands he is Santa
Claus and the same with ourselves.
In the Tyrol the appellation of the patron
of Christmas is simply that of Holy Man"
In Alsace his place is taken by maiden
dressed in white, with gilt, taper lighted
crown upon her brow, in one hand a silver
bell, in the other a basket of sweetmeats.
Here there is an adversary to be reckoned
with by rAughty children in the person of
the redouptable Hans Frapp, the terror of
the III doer. Tears are pretty sure to start
at the approach and ominous deneanor of
this formidable mentor. But the Christ child
pleads the cause of the offender, promises
amendment on his or her behalf and achieves
a successful rescue.
But in whatever way Christmas gifts may
come to the young folks Of different nations,
whether on Christmas tree or in stockings,
whether brought to the door by the angels of
the Christ child or down the chimney by
SaL "a Claus, or in through the window by
good st. Nicholas, this beautiful season is
everywhere the children's own festival, and
SO there can be no better greeting for it than
"a Merry Christmas!"

can ever hope TO be may be admitted Too
often the compliance with this request re-
veals Q condition of the room which, In
state Of darkness, is almost inevitably one OF
disorder everywhere; foods, medicines, fur
niture, bedding misplaced, dust ard stray
leavings II all directions.
In brief, there is nothing so bad as dark
sickroom; it is rs if the attendants were an
ticipating the death of the patient; and, II
the reason for it be asked the answer Is as
inconsistent as the act. The reason usually
offered is that the patient cannot bear the
light, as though the light could not be cut OFT
from the patient by a curtain or screen, and
as though to darhen one part OF the room 1t
were necessary to darken the whole of it.
a more injurious practice really could not
be maintained than that of darkness in the
sickroom. 1t is not only that dirt and dis
order are results of darkness, a great remedy
is lost. Sunlight is the remedy lost, and the
loss is momentous. Sunlight diffused through
a room warns and clarifies the air. 1t has a.
direct influence on the minute organic poi
sons, a distinctive influence which is most
precious, and it has cheerful effect upon
the mind The sick should never be gloomy,
and in the presence of the light the shadows
of gloom fly away

A German paper makes the astounding
statement that more than 1000, 900 glass eyes
are made every year in Germany and Swift
serland, while one French house manufac-
lures SOC, 900 of them annually. The pupil is
made of colored glass, and sometimes red
lines are painted on the inner surface to sinu-
late the veins The largest number of these
eyes are bought by laborers who are exposed
to fire, and are consequently liable to lose an
eye. An artificial eve rarely lasts more than
five years, as the secretions of the lachrymal
glands cloud the surface of the glass DR..
Magnus has pointed out that the expression
Of tho eyes Is almost solely due 10 the move
ment Of the upper eyelids; and this is the rea-
son that we may see a man with glass eve a
hundred times before we discover his in
firmity
