SOME COLD-wEATHER RULES
That Everybody should Preserve and
Live Up to.

From the Samaritan.
Never lean with the back upon anything
that is cold.
Never begin a journey until breakfast has
been eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then imme-
diately go out into the cold.
Keep the back, especially between the
shoulder blades. well covered; also the chest
we'll protected.
In sleeping in a cold room, establish q
habit of breathing through the nose, and
never with the mouth open.
Never go to bed with cold or damp feet.
Never omit regular bathing, for, unless the
skin is in active condition. the cold will
close the pores and favor congestion and
other diseases.
After exercise Of any kind never ride in
an open carriage or near the window of a
or even life.
When hoarse speak as little as possible
until the hoarsehess Is recovered from, else
the voice may be permanently lost, or diff
culties of the throat be produced.
Merely warm the back by the fire, and
never continue keeping the back exposed to
the heat after 1t has become comfortably
warm. To do otherwise is facilitating.
When going from a warm atmosphere in
to a cooler one, keep the mouth closed, so
that the air may be warmed I'm its passage
through the nose before 1t reaches the
lungs.

exercise and always avoid standing on ice

Learning a Lesson.

From the Chicago Tribune.
In front of a State street dry goods store
one day last week a well-dressed man pa
tientiy stood waiting for his wife, who was
only to be gone two minutes" Outside the
store hung various articles useful and
otherwise. To a casual observer they look.
ed-most of them-very otherwise. Just
then a red-faced woman flew up from the
basement, and grabbing the patient. tired
man by the arm said: II want that wan UT
there The man in the basemint seq yed
get 1t fer me. fer there amt no more down
there" And she pointed to a shovel of the
small iron variety hanging near the second
story window marked IS cents"
Madam, / do not climb up to that win
dow excepting every other day. This is the
day l do not climb. II you want It very
much, you might climb up and get 1t your
SELF
She turned a wrathfui pair Of red eyes on
him and said, I'll be after reporting yez
fer yer impotence" and she departed into
the beloved basement again in q state OF
great excitement
overhearing the woman, thought the stran-
ger an employe Of the store and said: Say,
mister, where do you keep your pants?"
Il keep 'em on my suspenders. Where do
you keep you-s?' he snapped and glowered
so on the man that he also departed in
haste.
Then the tired. waiting man. no longer
patient. turned and stood on the outer edge
Of the sidewalk at respectable distance
he said: Hereafter madam. when / am
imbecile enough to consent to go shopping
with you, I'll wait in the next block IL you
have er-ands in this store"

yesterday morning, aged eighty-three. In
1886, 81 and 80 he represented the town of
Haiio"ell In the Maine legislature, and was
LOT hve years the attorney of Kennebec
county. In 1854 he went to Cambridge and
opened law Office in Boston For twenty
years there was hardly one of his contem
poraries who was engaged in as MANY or
more important lawsuits, and he proba bIy
argued more cases to juries both upon tho
civil and criminal sides of the court than
any other member of the bar; his success
IN gaining verdicts being such as but few
advocates had surpassed. He was frequent
~ applied to for his written opinion upon
complicated cases, and his services as a
referee or master in chancery We're IN
constant demand.
When the law school of Boston Universe
~ was established he was invited to take
the lectureship upon the law of real prom
erty, and accepted the position, which he
filled until 1883
Mr.. Paine had always been ayerse To
holding Office Of any kind year before
he went to Boston he declined a seat in the
United States Senate. He had repeatedly
peen onered position on the supreme
pench or Ills ma tive state, and in 1867 when
the late Chief Justice Bigelow resigned the
office of chief justice of the supreme court
OF Massachusetts was rendered to him by
GOV. Bullock, but he declined it, not wish
ing to give up his practice.
owing to advancing years and poor health
Mr.. Paine retired from practice in 1885 and
since that time, although he had often Wis
tied his Boston Office and had frequently,
been seen in the courts, he had done pra C.
tcaIy. no business. In 1854 he received
the degree of LID. from Colby University
