SUGGESTIONS FOR THE SEASON.
Medical Journal.l


Be specially careful of draughts and sud
den changes.
Do not overwork. OF what use is wealth
without healthY
Keep your feet dry but do not wear
overshoes all the time.
Remember that the pores Of your skin,
when IN health, are always open, and that
closing them causes sickness.
Dress warmly, but not heavily. Woolen
clothing that permits the exhalations OK the
body to escape, is the best.
Eat strengthening and hearty, but not too
much greasy food. 1t is a mistake to sup
pose that fat food contains the most
vitality.
If you feel chilly at any time, take
drink of pure whiskey at once. Duffy's
Pure Malt is the purest and best and has
the highest recommendations.
Do not call the Doctor for every slight
ailment. II you have cold, feel depressed
and lack appetite and vigor you need SOM
thing to tone aud build up the system.
Nothing will do this go readily as the pure
article we have mentioned.

I From Harper's Weekly


No political leader in English history
not Walpola, nor Chatham, nor Pitt nor
Fox, nor Peel, nor Gladstone-has held
such absolute sway over his party as
Parnell; and no leader was ever more
cold, Indifferent, or cynically disdalnful
even of his own following. Ireland has
furnished other famous chiefs-Swift,
Flood, Grattan,* OConnell--for whom
the popular enthusiasm has been wrought
at times to passionate feryer; but no
Irish leader, although without eloquence
or f1attery or Difference, and with such
superb scorn Of the opinion of others,
has exercised SO great supremacy, or
