body Is great mechanism both for generating
heat and disspating it If a person promotes
the former process in one OF many ways, or at
least keeps Il going on more actively than the
latter. he will be warm. On the other hand. II
he allows more heat to escape than he develops.
OF course his temperature will be lowered.
The creates; LOSES at least in cold weather.
are likely TO ocur through radiation from the
skin. This phenomenon is heightened by the
evaporation Of the natural moisture there. Then.
of course. every time exhales he wastes
some OF the warmth generated within Still
other avenues Of escape may be mentioned. but
they are comparatively unimportant.
The chief safeguard against the loss OF
warmth Is covering for the body which Is a
non-conductor OF heat. Some persons have a
natural protection in a layer OF sub-cutaneous
fat Others especially in the Arctic regions, de-
liberately apply grease to the body for this very
purpose. Finally, as every Tribune reader
knows, woollen clothing keeps In the natural
heat better than does cotton or linen Fine
smooth goods radiate less than rough goods
Thick clothing II Is needless to say, Is better
than thin clothing. and furs are better than cloth
The chief source Of heat In the body Is the
food Those articles which. like meat and fats
and certain vegetables rich in "proteids," fur
nish carbon hydrogen and nitrogen IN great
abundance the best for this purpose. When
these substances are dlgested and oxidized Tor
burned they give Of a fine supply of warmth
Nne-tenths OF the caloric effect Of food Is de-
rived directly from the chemistry OF digestion
Hearty eating. therefore. is the best means OF
keeping ones self warm at this season The
next best is exercise. Four-ffths Of all the en-
ergy expended in muscular contraction appears
in the form Of heat, and only one-ffth in work
Anything which promotes free respiration and
takes a large supply Of oxygen into the system
still further feeds the internal fires.
Children and some animals Qike guinea pigs
and rats have greater heat-producng power
than men. And Of course, there are great df-
ferences among the latter in this respect. owing
to dissimilarties In age, diet health, activity
circulation, and so Moreover, there are
notable disparities in sensitiveness 10 external
cold These are due to variations in the condi-
ton and distribution Of certain cutaneous
nerves. Some psychologists believe that we have
one set OF nerves to detect cold and another to
report heat Their relative abundance, as well
as their excitability, has something TO do with
our temperature sensations

INDIANS DO NOT RECKON HIGH
HOW p4s WAS HEAP PLENTY" IN SETTLE
MENT OF A CLAIM FOR 5000.

It Is not easy now to cheat the Indians In
bargaining as It was in the days when Manhat-
tan Island was bought from them for S23 Their
long intercourse with the white men has taught
them many things about the value OF their pos
sessions. and they are pretty sharp In making
the ordinary trades which come up in their daily
life. Nevertheless. It Is still true that when II
comes to T. question Of large sums OF money
thousands hundreds OF doars-the
average Indian is bewildered at the mere idea
OF SO much wealth An incident which hap
pened not long ago in New-Mexico illustrates
this rclnt.
An Indian. while crossing the tracks OF one Of
the railroads. had been kllek by train. His
squaw demanded $4,000 as an indemnity for tho
loss Of her husband. and the company were
willing to settle the matter. SO they sent to
deal with the squaw a man who had had
siderable experience In negotiating with the Ind
ians- He took with him several bags Of "dobe,"
Mexican silver dollars. which pass freely
among the Indians and settlers In that part Of
the country. Sitting down gravely with the
aESrieved widow, he began counting out the big
shining dollars one by one. When the pile had
reached hundred he glanced inquiringly at the
squaw. But she shook her head firmly The
agent went on with his counting. At the end
Of another hundred he looked up again. The
squaw repeated the negative shake Of her head,
but her eyes began to brighten at the heap OF
silver. AZ three hundred the agent paused
little longer. His customer still held out. though
with unmstakable signs OF weakening. Tho
agent counted more slowly and impressively.
When he reached S3fS the squaw stopped his
hand
Heap plenty. heap plenty" she said. with de-
cision and gathering UP the silver she accepted
in perfect contentment this settlement Of her
claim for $4,000.
