Why the Leaves Turn.

The common and old-fashioned Idea
Is that the tints of autumn foliage are
caused by frost. Stated briefly, the
causes are these: The green matter In
the tissue of leaf is composed of two
colors, red and blue. When the sap
ceases to flow in the autumn and the
natural growth of the tree ceases,
oxidation of the tissue takes place.
Under certain conditions the green
leaf changes to red; under different
conditions it takes on a yellow OF
brown tint-due to difference In COM
bination Of the original constituents
of the green tissue, end to the vary
ing conditions of climate, exposure ana
soil. A dry, cold climate produces
more brilliant foliage than one that Is
damp and warm. This is the reason
that our American autumns are 30
much more gorgeous than those OF
ENGLAND .-- ~. s.-7.t- %o -

For Children's Threats.

During the school term when chill
dren must go continually and are SUBJ
jected to all kinds Of weather they are
SUSCEPTIBLE to no more dangerous
malady than sore throat. This, how
ever, can be avoided by any mother
who will follow out the directions CIV
en- here: The treatment consists in
thoroughly swabbing the back Of the
mouth and throat with a wash made
thus: Table salt, two drains; black
pepper, golden seal, nitrate Of potash,
alum, one dram each. Mix and pull
verize, put into teacup half full of
water, stir we'll and then fill up with
good vinegar. Use every half-hour.
one. two and four hours, as recovery
progresses. The child may swallow a
little each time. Apply one ounce each
of spirits of turpentine, sweet oil and
aqua ammonia, mixed, every hour, to
the whole of the throat and to the
breast bone every four hours, keeping
flannel to the part. In case of severe
cold it is better to administer the treat
ment over night, and in the morning
the soreness will be found to have en-
tirely disappeared.
