WINTER AND HEALTH
Value of Cold as Tonic to Repair ia
Injuries of Summer.

Value OF Cold as Tonic to Repair the
Injuries of Summer.
Many persons regard the winter sea-
son as an unfortunate visitation. It Is
considered both uncomfortable to the
body and harmful to health, This Is an
error. Cold Is most potent agent for
the restoration and preservation Of
normal activity ON the part Of the or
gans Of the human body. It Is q wise
plan OF Providence which gives us u
change Of seasons The winter cold
eonaas as tonic to repair the injuries
done by the enervating heat of sum-
mer. Summer, 1t Is true. has many wise
uses in the matter of health. 1t induces
outdoor life, ribs the system of potsons
through .coptous perspiration, and
through the seorehing rays of the sun
destroys germ life. Winter Is the great
er braeer Of the system. L stimulates
activity in every organ. When cold
attacks the surface Of the body, the
blood is set into more free circulation
as means Of bodily warmth. It Is
through the circulation of the blood
that the human anatomy Is kept IN a
state Of repair. When the food has
been digested and converted Into liq-
lid form, It Is taken up By the blood
and carried the rounds of the system
fer the purpose of repairing the waste
places. When the cold causes increased
circulation. it also brings about more
perfect nutrition. Through the exces-
siye demand for nutrient matter which
quickened circulation causes there is
improved digestion. The entire repair
machinery is stimulated to renewed in
dustry. The wintry air. as is well
KNOWN brings with It a sense OF re-
newed strength and vitality. The re-
storative power of cold Is well Illus
trated in the case of the dash of cold
water in the face of fainting person.
When a person is In q faint there Is
practical suspense of life for the time,
yet an application Of cold water to the
face promptly restores circulation end
renews life. This same fact is Illus
trated by the cold face bath ON rising
from bed in the morning. The Indians

An Interesting Operation.


4 very interesting operation was
performed in New York upon Kate
Farley by DR.. Brewster, a dentist of
Leferts place. Mrs. Farley has been
at the Memorial hospital for several
weeks with two compound fractures
of the lower jaw. The operation con-
sisted of cementing the upper ard low
er jaws together. so that the broken
bones of the lower jaw may be held
firmly in place until the fractures are
healed. Until the healing has taken
place the woman will not be able to
