Use of a Long Rrenth.

When chilled by exposure to cold,
take a long breath, with the mouth
firmly shut. Repeat this several times
until you begin to feel the heat return
ing. 1t requires only a very short time
TO do this. The long breath quickens
the pulse. and this causes the blood to
circulate faster. The blood flows into
all parts of the veins and arteries and
gives out a great deal of heat. 1t is
stated that long, deep breath, held as
long as possible, Will close the pores of
a heated skin. and the danger of taking
cold. on stepping outdoors, may be thus
guarded against.
