warning In so far as disease j. con
ceyned il gives clear signs Of what is i'm
pending day. weeks. months and even
years before the attack. If people looked
to these signs and took warning from
them they would escape much serious
illness and live many years longer than
they do. 1t is indeed remarkable how
careless we are in this respect. a man
who will anxousIy scan the sky for signs
Of coming rain lest his tophat may get
soilcd will never dream Of examining his
eyes, nose o. finger nails for signs of com
ing illness.
The sneeze. for instance. is very sig
Liiicant. 1t is always n sign that some
thing is njuring the air passages, any
where from the nose down to the lungs.
Should it be only case Of snuff or pep
pei, of course the sneeZc is one con
sequence But often it is an indication
of congestion. There is Inflammation
somewhere with too much blood, and the
object of the sncezc is TO give relief by
getting rid of some of the fluid. This
snee2e is n warning that every prudent
person should attend to. 1t is at least
the forerunner of cold. But 1t may
indicate an approaching attack Of bron-
Chtis or pneumonia. When there Ii
much sneezing, accompanied by some
thing like a small shower of rain, the
victim viii do well to take n warm foot
bath, 90 to bed, and adopt the other
usual remedies to cure cold.
Winter Colds.
The winter cold itself is 4 grave warn
ing. When it recurs two or three times
every winter, it is sure to be followed,

this comes on it is practically incuFable.
Men are started on their lives much as
shell from Il cannOn-Wlth certain
nXed quantity of energy. If disease or
accident does not carry them off, they
will die some time Of what we call old
age-in other words, when the energy
with which they started Is spent. Some
have energy enough to carry them over
The full century; others have only sulii-
cient to Keep them going for ninety,
eighty, seventy. sixty or fewer years,
Now. early badness is a sure sign, with
some exceptions, that the energy is like

man. But all kinds Of badness have
not this significance. Sometimes the loss

probably by microbes. The warning
