The Skin DRILL

The skin drill, in chilly weather, is
the only sure preventive of cold, the
doctor said. The skin drill is the
morning bath.
Every morning we should take a
cold bath not more than minute
long We should take it in a warm
room, and afterward we should rub
ourselves with rough towel till we
are red and dry and glowing.
This constitutes a skin drill--the
quick closing of the blood vessels
when the cold water is applied and
the prompt dilation OF the vessels OF
the skin as the flesh is dried.
The cold bath is an anti-cold drill.
1t is the training of the skin to that
prompt and glowing reaction after a
chill which keeps cold off. AS the
lists, under boxing teacher, learn to
ward off solar-plexus blows, so the
skin, under the daily bath, learns to
ward off the cold that is too often
the forerunner of pneumonia or con.
sumption.

During the war between Japan and

The reason given was that the nation

require about per cent. and other
industries account for the remainder
Camphor is produced by the distilla-
ton OF certain kind of wood grown
in Japan, FOrmosa and southern Chi
ma. The exports vary greatly from
year to year, and the price has violent
changes, such as ST a hundredweight
in 1868, $3.50 in 1907 and $40 in 1908.
What the future Of the camphor in
dustry will be no one knows. In In

mense groves have been planted, but
1t may take 40 or so years before they
are sufficiently matured to produce the
gum. Meanwhile German chemists
are making artificial camphor, which
already has its place as a substitute

CARE OF SACRED MONKEYS
Hindu Fakir Who Lives in Comfort
on an indian Hilltop with His
Charges.

In the very top of Jakko, the hill
that rises above Simla, there lives a
solitary Hindu fakir, an old man
clothed in yellow, with saffron plas.
tered cheeks and caste marks on his
forehead He's. the guardian priest of
the sacred monkeys.
Like the inhabitants of ancient
Egypt, who worshiped cats and croc.
odiles, the Hindus of to-day hold many
animals in superstitious reverence. In.
deed the Hindu of to-day is even more
fanatical than formerly, and resents
more passionately the smallest injury
or insult offered to the creatures he
worships,
Among this hierarchy of animals
the monkey holds a place of honor
second only to the COW, for in the
"Ramayana," the sacred epic of the
Hindus, II is written Row IIaAuman
the monkey god, allied himself with
Fishnu thePreserver, helping him to
overcome his enemies and recover h.S
lost wife Sta.
So the monkey, especially the com
mon red monkey. says the Wide World
Magazine, is worshiped throughout the
length and breadth of India His i'm.
ages in brass are sold in every bazaar.
md many shrines are dedicated to his
worship.
People say that there has always
'een fakir on Jakko, and it is pos
sible that one has lived there ever
since the hill tribes were admitted
within the very elastic limits OF the
hindu religion. Priest has succeeded
priest, living alone on the mountain
OPP. and sharing with his little red
GODS the food which pious worshipers
provided.
In former times there must have
cen fakir on 'akko, ami 1t is pos

lround live poorly even when the sea.

here is famine. But now he lives in
