Timely Hints on
Preventing Colds

TT people would only remember that
there are four points on the sur
i face Of the body which are special
~ sensitive to draughts and damp
ness, we should hear fewer complaints
about colds,
These susceptible areas, which some
one has aptly dubbed "cold spots" are
the parts through which a chill most
easily exeites the nervous disturbance,
which is at the bottom OF all colds; for
the microbes. which are believed to be
the active agents in producing a cold,
cannot act so long as the nervous
equilibrium OF the mucous membrane
is maintained
One OF these cold spots, which is so
well known as hardly to need mention,
is the back part OF the head and neck.
The feet constitute another univer-
sally recognized portal through which
mischief comes Wet feet are general
ly looked upon as dangerous, but wet
feet are powerless for I'll so long as
they are not cold A pedestrian might
walk all day with wet feet and suf-
fer no harm, but let him stop for any
length OF time SO as To permit of
slowing of the local circulation. and
the wet feet viii quickly become chilled
feet, and the mischief is done
Another vulnerable area IS The aodo-
men. The Sterner Sez. which is also
the wiser in matter OF dress. usually
keeps this vital part Well protected
against atmospheric influences; but Wo-
man, with curious inconsistency. care
fully protects her shoulders ane wraps
up her throat whenever she goes out,
but VIII face bitter wind with never
thought Of shielding her body with
anything more substantial than light
underg2rmentS and n thin cloth skirt
Finally there is another peculiarly
sensitive area, the existence of which
is not even suspected by many of it's
most frequent victims This cold spot
Is located in the shins. Men are es-
pecially prone TO take cold through this
channel, since the ordinary overcoat
leaves the legs below the knees but
little protected.

teeth. Select a tiny toothbrush, soft
and plant; use every inducement-even
bribery is permissible in this case-to
obtain its regular use. Keep this up
until il has become a well-establiShed
habit.
At the first sign of decay consult a
dentist. To lose the first teeth prema-
turely is a pity, as it affects the dura-
bility of the second ones.
When the second teeth commence to
appear, dentist should examine them
at least twice a year. Care must be
taken that they are not crowded or al
lowed TO come in unevenly. In this way
much pain and even later DISAGREEMENT
may be avoided.
Teeth have often become biaclcened
and disfigured beyond redemption by
strong medicines given in childhood
this seems like criminal carelessness on
the part of parents; Of course, IL is only
thoughtlesSneSs; but the results are just
as cruel and far-reaching as though a
real injury had been intended
Medicine that may blacken the teeth
or injure the enamel should always be
given through a glass tube.
The Washington times., 1906-03-18

r pom the care Of the first teeth
greatly depends the beauty and
stability OF the second set;
therefore. intelligent care OF them
cannot begin too early.
Many mothers are of the opinion that
keeping the teeth clean is the only re-
qmrement To be sure, cleanliness is of
the greatest Importance, but there are
other important points TO be considered.
Proper diet is one of these.
For instance, sugars and candies
should be avoided. not because their I'M
mediate contact with the teeth is inju-
rious. but because they frequently pro-
duce an acidity OF the stomach which
greatly affects the teeth.
IL a child is i'll during tcething time,
its system often lacks the necessary
amount of bone-making elements; and in
such cases a little limewater in the milk
is most beneficial. When IL begins TO
take something besides milk, plenty of
cereals that are rich in bone-making
elements should be given.
Just as early as possible start train
ing the child In the care OF its own

WINSTED, Conn, June 14.-As c. G.
Aldrich and d. S. Moore, merchants of
Winsted, were riding through Cold
brook River on Sunday in Mr.. Aldrich's s
automobile Calvin Humphrey, con-
stable, signaled to them with his hands
and whip to stop.
The machine did not slacken and as
it whizzed past Humphrey swung the
long oxwhip, the lash striking the men
across the face.
Stopping the machine, the men re-
turned to where Humphrey was stand
ing and asked him what he meant by
plying the lash on them. Humphrey,
after few words had been exchanged,
choked and again lashed the automo-
biliSts.
Men with automobiles come up here
in the country" said Humphrey, "and
think they've struck a pack of fools.
If they can make a mans horse run
away they do so, and then sit in their
machines and laugh. These fellows
