Tight Clothing.

The more loosely clothing fits the
less it conducts heat, because q layer
OF air is interposcd between it and the
bodY-and air is an exceedingly bad
conductor of heat, says Cassell's Maya
zine. This protecting layer of air en-
ables the body in winter to keep its
normal temperature the more easily,
because the heat given off ut the sur
lace OF the body passes slowly through
it; whereas if the clothing fl too close
iy to the skin heat is dissipated with
much greater rapidity. In summer
time, on the other hand, the air in
which we move is not so warm as the
objects upon which the suns rays fall
directly, and SO the surface of clothes
may become much hotter than the mir
surrounding them. The advantage of
the layer Of the air is obvious also in
this case. Therefore we see that in
hot and in cold weather. too tightly
fitting clothing defeats the 6rst and
great object of wearing clothes, and
tends to exhaust the bodily strength
and make it unfit for work.
Again, the clothing must be so con-
structed as not to interfere with the
freedom of the movement of any part
of the body; otherwise the due per-
Torrance of some function is inter
fered with, so that injury results. A
small foot may be desirable pos
session, but it is useless to at
tempt to obtain it by the compress
eli nf tLa h,y tNA II.
Of boots Freedom of movement is
at once impaired, and graceful, easy
walking is sheer impossibility. The
victim of tight boots is self revealed
by the ungainly gait-a much more
conspicuous infrmity than a large
foot. In addition to the discomfort
necessarily experienced, permanent in
jury may be caused to the structures
of the foot Deformity of the toe re-
suits, and one particular deformity,
known as hammer toe" is often thus
produced, the pressure Of the boot
causing the toes to override one another
The great toe becomes turned out
ward the bali becomes unduly promi-
nent, and walking becomes difficult
A commoner result of tight shoe is
the formation Of corns. Whenever
any part of the body is subjected to
intermittent pressure, thiclSening of
the tissues occurs at that spot and a
corn is the result, which is capable of
causing extreme pain, especially if
slightly infiamed. The i'll effects Of

AILING PEACH TREEs.-Not every
sickly peach tree has the yellows, al
though many growers seem inclined
to take that view. Before we put the
AK to the root of n peach tree, we want
to be sure whether it is case Of the
yellows, or starvation, or of root aphis.
KANT or muriate of potash, sown
broadcast over the ground as far as
the roots extend, often has a most
wonderful effect. We have revived
trees that were said to be 'dying with
the yellows" by simply scattering a
quart of muriate of potash under them,
and seen many good crops Of good
fruit taken off them. Many of such
cases have come to our notice. Pre-
sumably, the yellows were nothing
but root lice, and these were killed by
the potash-Ey.

STIMuLATING PLANTS. If you desire
roses, geraniums, fuchsias, etc, to be-
come more fourishing, you can try 1T
by adding five or six drops of ammonia
to every pint of warm water that you
give them; but don't repeat the dose
oftener than once in five or six days,
lest you stimulate them too highly.

I have paid out hundreds of dollars to the
doctors without benefit. My brother came
to visit us from the West and he told me to
try DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
He had taken it and It had cured him. I

PLANTING IN WARM GRoUNp-We had
an experience in early planting few
years ago that was very suggestive
The ground for early peas had been
prepared, and the rows were all
marked ready for putting in the seed
Part Of the rows were planted during
cold day and the planting was fol-
lowed by heavy rainfall. After the
storm the remaining rows were
dropped and covered with the hoe
while the sun was shining warmly on
the soil. Those last planted grew fine
ly and made a good crop, while the
first planting never showed half as
many plants as there were planted OF
seed. II would have been better,
probably, if the surface of those first
planted had been stirred to break the
crust and let in the warm air. But we
always had feeling after that expert
ence that the sunlight warming the
soil as it was covered over the seed set
it to terminating more quickly, and
made it grow more vigorously. Amer

There arc many things which it APP

in the New York Tribune. Thus he
may avoid paying his creditors, pro-
vided they are tradespeoplo or
tent with his plighted word, have
accepted the additional security OF q
promissory note. Indeed the passing
OF any paper between creditor and
debtor is held to remove the obliga-
ton from the list OF debts of honor
and places it among the so-called
.'tradosmen's debts" the non-pay
ment of which involves no loss of
"gcntilhommerie," or OF "honor"
Debts of honor, that is to say, loans
based merely upon verbal obligations
and bets, must be paid at all cost,
according to the ethics governing
the "code of honor" even il the
debtor has to obtain the money by
means Of methods which verge not
only upon the dishonorable. but oven
on the criminal. 1t is for this
reason that we sometimes hear of
young m n going to the length of
stealing their mothers jewels or of
forging the name of their nearest
and dearest relatives. as did tho old
est son of an English peer tho other
day. for the sake OF paying their
debts of honor, failing which, they
can no longer hope to retain the
social status Of gentleman. Ono
has heard ofmen committing suicide,
like young Count Alloys Hardegg q

last marquis of Hastings, years ago
in London, because they were unable
to pay their "debts Of honor" but
one has never heard of gentleman

that the majority Of the great

finitcly prefer to have a murder

which resulted inthe social ostracism
OF Sir William Gordon Cumming, of

the principal things which q ..gen-

tcnets Of old world society. The
latter may be summed up in brief as
the payment of debts of honor, reti-
cence with regard to all '.aflairs du

Provided man does not break these

nit every other sin with impunity,
