While the East has been suffering un-
der temperatures running to extremes
below zero, Bowbells has all week been

do not take the precaution to carry an
umbrella or wear a straw hat. Some
reckless people are seen daily wearing
overcoats. OF course, if people viii!
thus transgress the laws Of health and
overdress themselves in this balmy eli
mate, it is not at all to be wondered at
that they feel some slight inconveni-
ence.
