TO AVOID COLDS,

. Take plenty of outdoor exercise.
Never go to bed with cold or damn
feet.
Never lean with the back against
anything that is cold.
Never take warm drinks and then
Immediately go out into the cold.
Never venture out in the morning
before fortifying the system with
food.
Never sit by an open window in a
car after any kind of exercise-it is
dangerous to health 49,.
Never omit daily bathing, for unless
the skin is in active condition the cold
will close the pores and favor conges-
ton. H.. q
Never stand still in cold weather.
especially after having taken exercise,
and always avoid standing on ice or
snow where the person is exposed to
the slightest draught.
When hoarse, speak as little as nos
sible. When going from warm room
into colder atmosphere keep the mouth
closed and breathe through the nos
trils so that the air may be sufficient
ly warmed before it reaches the lungs.
Eat plain, nourishing food.-Ameri-

WISE AND OTHERWISE.

A long walk is a severe trial for the
human understanding.
Ingratitude is a vice that renders all
others less disgusting.

The average baby has no earthly use

A wife never objects to her husband

When a married man is missing from

PRESERVING LACES.

Iron lace on the right side first, then
on the wrong side, to throw up the
pattern.
When ironing 1aces cover them with
clean, white tissue paper. This pre-
vents the shiny look seen on washed
lace.
When putting lace away, fold as lit
tie as possible. A good plan is to
wind it round card, as they do in
The shops.
Use contour instead of ordinary
starch for stiffening laces. This makes
them firm and does not detract from
the lacey appearance.
Laces and other delicate triies should
be placed In a muslin bag before be-
ing boiled. This prevents their get
ting lost and torn in the wash.

Entertafns Employees i.

That G. H. Smiley, the caterer: ap-
preciates the. work of his employees
was clearly demonstrated last Sunday
evening, when he rendered his entire
working force bounteous supper at
his large establishment on Twenty

Mirth and humor flowed as free as the
Fish House punch and other liquors
of the ooh, be Joyful nature that Mr..
Smiley had prepared for his guests.
For the first time in many years Mr..
Smiley was persuaded to set the table
and the result of his efforts was a
revelation to his corps Of artists and
headwaiters who have few equals
along that line. The table was as
ornate as the matchless resources of
the host could make it and the most
