The Case of a Cold.

A cold is departure from health.
and should really be attended to at
once. Do not let it cure itself Get
rid of it soon. Do not feed it though,
but starve it. One cold afteE another
nearly always ends in thickening OF
the mucous membrane Of the bronchial
tubes, and before you are aware OF 1t
you become the victim of winter cough.
The morning tub (cold, mean) is
very sure preventive of colds. Never
overclothe nor overhead yourself. The
neck should be kept cool Keep away
from fires indoors if you are subject to
colds.
Cough, if not the result of simple
laryngeal or bronchial catarrh, may
mean very serious departure from
health; and the sooner one sees doc
tor in such a case the better. Do not
be afraid to consult him. Remember,
it is only those that delay who suffer in
the end. Lido not advise you to rush
to a physician with every trit1ing all
ment, butt is better to be sure than
sorry.
Many people would benefit much by
taking cod liver oil for month or six
weeks about the changes of the season.
Probably the diet would have to be
lowered lIlle, anu al OccdSlOHdi lllliu
aperient taken.
Getting thin is another serious de-
parture from health. One generally
does lose weight in winter, and regain
it in summer; but a slow and steady
decrease in weight calls aloud for med
ical interference.
Want of sleep and restless nights
are symptoms which cannot be over
looked. The cause must he found and
removed. The trouble may certainly
arise from Overwork and trouble COM
bined, but in most cases the stomach
and digestive organs are the roots of
the evil.
Nervous people worry most, but they
also work most. Well, the question
one is inclined to ask himself when he
feels something wrong with his health
is: cam overworking myself?''
would answer thus: If you really en-
Joy working it cannot injure you very
much; but, on the other hand, if it is
force work, and you find little pleasure
in it, then it will tell on your constitu-
ton.
But many people cannot afford rest.
Well, but wonders can be done by tax
ing exercise; by breathing only fresh
air night and day, in doors and out,
and by careful regulation of the diet.
In conclusion let me entreat of you, as
you value your happiness not to neg
1ect first departures from health. The
story of the reservoir has really NOR
al for every one of us.-Funaity Doctor

A Lesson in Etiquette.

A yourg man stood in doorway on
Saturday evening. Another young
man and ayoung woman passed. ''Hel-
10, Mary!'' called the young man who
stood, loudly, to the companion Of the
young man who walked. That young
man stopped walking, deposited his
girl in another doorway, came back to
the other young man and gave him an
unmerciful beating. ''What did you do
that for?" demanded the vanquishcd
one as soon as he had a chance to
speak. "You insulted the lady l was
with,'' was the reply. Il didn't do any
thing but say Hello, Mary! and, any
way, don't you know that she's my Sis
ter?" Yes, l know that. but you had
no right-to attract attention to her on
crowded street by hollering at her.
Do you suppose that the crowd knew
that YOU are the brother? What would
they think of girl thus rudely accost-
ed?" 1t was a severe lesson in street
etiquette EIpress.

Society Conversation.

The flimsy foundation upon which
so-called society conversation and
wit rest nowadays received good il
lustration Yesterday in parior of a
hotel in this city. The group was COM
posed of several elderly ladies of dow
ager-like rotundity, whose fresh cheeks
and bright eyes showed that the god
dess of health and they were on more
than speaking terms, and one young
woman whose charms Of face and form
indicated slight need of acquaintance
with cosmetics or with medicine. Two
gentlemen joined the ladies.
80, come here cried out the young
est, pointing to her smiling elders, Il
want to show you two people who have
never taken quinine."
Everybody Immediately laughed
aloud, and when the mirth had subsid-
ed enough SO that speech was again
possible one of the gentlemen cried out:
"How inconsiderater'
Then they all laughed loudly again.

E;.a J a:.:!'s EFute Farewell,

The voice of the old rough became

coat till he lay silent and motionless.
But late in the evening when the
