Tho Pulse and the Temperature.

If YOU take a thermometer on hot sum-
mer day and watch it until IL runs up I'M
der the influence of the sunshine to JS.4,
YOU will see it when it reaches that point
o. the exact temperature OF your body if
you are in normal health. Your tempcra-
ture may fuctuate n fraction above or be-
low QS.4, according to the time OF the day
or night, but it never varies TO any extent
until fever or some other kind of disease
sets in. Then the temperature begins 70 do
what the pulse would not do-tell just how
dangerously sick the person Is.
Ard one of the strange things about II IS
that it does not vary many degrees from
this normal point of 9S.4, no matter how i'll
the patient may become. If there Il "A high
fever, it may u up to l0l or i05 and some
times to l06, but it seldom stays at this
point for any length Of time. II it goes up
to los, the good physician who is watching
at the bedside of the sick person concludes
that death will soon put an end TO the suf-
fering. Sometimes, as in cases Of cholera,
it may drop several degrees below sS.4,
but it seems to be impossible for 1t 10
change many degrees from the normal
point. There are cases recorded where the
temperature ran up to 10 or II. and the
patient recovered.
The pulse, on the contrary, may change
many beats, and still the sick person will
not be in danger Of death. But as a rule
If the temperature reaches los or 100 death
soon follows.
A tiny thermometer called a clinical
Thermometer Is used 10 indicate the EN-
perature. 1t is placed under the tongue or
close 10 the skin in the axilla or armpit
and left there for O few minutes. By an
ingenious arrangement the mercury in the
slender glass tube is self registering, sothat
you may tell how high it was at any time
after the temperature is taken, if the mer-
curry is not disturbed.-St Nicholas.

The iuiiuence of Ivy.

There is a widespread belief that ivy
trained against the walls Of q dwelling
house j. productive Of damp wallsand gen
eral unhealthiness. The very opposite Of
this Is really the case. If any one will care
fully examine an ivy clad wall after a
shower Of rain. he will observe that while
the overlapping leaves have conducted the
water from point to point until 1t has
reached the ground the wall underneath is
quite dry. More than this, the thirsty
~rootlets OF the stems will force their way
into every creyicc OF the structure which
will afford a firm hold and act like suckers
in drawing out PARTICLES Of moisture for
their own nourishmcnt. Care should be
taken by means Of occasional pinning that
the ivy does not force its way into the in
tersticcs Of the roof or the joints Of the
drainso or cutters. Ivy, too, renders a house
cool in summer and warm in winter, and
It's influence cannot be otherwise than ben
