A cold is a departure from health, and should really be attended to at once. Do not let it cure itself. Get rid of. it soon. Do not feed it though, but starve it. One cold after, another nearly always ends in thickening of the mucous "membrane ofthe bronchial tubes, and before you are aware of it you become the victim of winter cough. The morning tub (cold, I mean) is a very sure preventive of colds. Never overclothe nor overheat yourself. The neck should be kept cool. Keep away from fires indoors if you are subject to colds. Cough, if not the result of simple laryngeal or bronchial catarrh, may mean a very serious departure from health; and the sooner one sees a doc tor in such a case the better. Do not be afraid to consult him. Remember, it is only those that delay who suffer in the emir I do not advise you to rush to a whyslcian with every" trifling ail ment, but it is better to be sure than sorry. Many people would benefit much by taking'cod liver oil for a month or six jveeks about the changes of the season. Probably the diet would have to be lowered" a little, and an occasional mild aperient taken. Getting thin is another serious de parture from health. One generally does lose weight in winter, and regain it in summer; but a slow and steady decrease in weight calls aloud for med ical interference. Want of sleep and restless nights are symptoms which cannot be over looked. The cause must be found and removed. The trouble may certainly j arise from overwork and trouble com- : bined, but in most cases the stomach 1 and digestive organs are the roots of the evil. Nervous people worry most, but they also work most. Well, the question one is inclined to ask himself when he feels something wrong with his health is: "Am I overworking myself?" I would answer thus: If you really en joy working it cannot injure you very much; bur," on the other hand, if it is force work, and you tind little pleasure in it, then it will tell on your constitu tion. But many pnoplc cannot afford rest. Well, but wonders can be done by tak ing exercise; by breathing only fresh air night and day, in doors and out, and by careful regulation of the diet. In conclusion let mc entreat of vou, as you value your happiness not to neg lect, first departures from health. The story of the reservoir has really a mor al for every one of ut. Family Doctor in Caswell's Magazine. There is a prominent lady in Phila delphia who has written for private cir culation a little social tract, in which she takes the view that very little mis chief would happen in the world that does happen if men would stay home evenings with their wive. Intemper ance, crime, divorce, and even political corruption, she attributes to this cause. Miss Brown "Can't you spare me a little more money this week, pa? That is a dear, good father."

"Why, John," said his wife impa tiently, as she opened the door and found" him still in bed, "you promised faithfully last night that you would get up in time to go to church with me." "I meant in time for evening service," explained John, turning over luxuri ously. The Epoch. ' A negro preacher addressed his flock with great earnestness on the subject of ni.racles as follows: "My beloved friends, de greatest ob all de miracles was 'bout de loaves and de fishes. Dere was 5,000 loaves and 2,000 fishes, and de twelve 'postles had to cat deni all. De miracle is dey didn't bust." New York Globe. Western papers are discussing the vital question "What makes a man's trousers bag at the knees?" and no one has thought to advance the theory that it is because the man wears the trous ers. We don't know of anything that will make a mrfn's trousers bag at the knees quicker than -wearing them. Norristown Herald. "I see by the papers that Maude Jen kinson has made a great strike in that play, The Gauzy Spectre.' " "Yes; but I hear she has met with a severe loss." "What was that?" "Whj-, she left $2,000 worth of diamonds ou her bureau in her hotel." "And they were Stolen, eh?" "No, she found them just where she left them, and, of course, nothing was said about it in the pa pers." Springfield Union. "The bulk of my fortune I wish to bequeath to my scapegrace nephew, George," said the dying man. "Why. it was only yesterday he called you an old skinflint," said the lawver. "I'd ' cut the boy off." "That's all right," replied the testator. "You make the wiil out the waj I tell 3-011. I know enough about wills to know that if I leave hini all the money he won't get a cent of it." Harper's Bazar. Dr. Diagnosis Why, young fellow, , you'r badly off; you have dyspepsia, your liver is torpid, your circulation is sluggish, 3-ou aretoo fat foryouryears, your ej'es are dull and heavy; you must take some exercise in the open air every day.

U. S. Gov't Report, Aug. 17, 1S89. Q How She Secured a Bargain. There is a good moving story which has just gained publicilj- regarding some rather prominent furniture deal ers in Chicago. The firm all.ided to had a very elegant parlor set of solid mahogany- and the. finest upholstering. It also had 'duplicates in veneered wood and cheap plush in the store-room. The outfit, which was worth about 200, was displayed in the front windows, and marked: "This elegant -parlor suit only lj-27." One d.iy a mild, meek looking" woman came in, examined the furniture and invested. She took a receipt for her money, left her address, and was bowed out by the smiling salesman, who assured "her that "the things would be sent right over." In due time the wagon arrived at the young woman's house and backed up in front of the door. ' Hold on," said the purchaser, "don't unload yet" Then she climbed on the van and made a very peculiar examination of the load. At last she said to the driver and his assistant: "I'll go back with 3-011 to the store. These are not the goods I purcnased." And back she did go, despite entreaties, and assur ance that "everything was all right." When she walked in she was not the mild-mannered creature of two hours before. "You've tried to swindle me," she cried. "I bought one set of furniture and you have sent me another. Now, I want what I have paid you for. How do I know? Because in every article of thatst you sold me I stuck a pin wiiiie you were not looking. Now, I'm going to pick out my prop erty and s,m; tiiat you take it over. If you don't there'll be trouble." There was no trouble and the little woman is looking for some sharp mer chant with a similar "bargain" on hand. C'V : tjo Herald. r:. ;3 'Tutc. Farewell. An oM i.mifiT ia Mexico gave to the author i.f .Siinimerland Sketches" his experience with a favorite hound, which exhibited feelings that would honor humanity. "You have no idea," he said, "how they get used to you if you are alone with them for weeks togctlrer; the worst of it is that it comes so awful hard on a fellow to lose a creature of that kind. "I bought a fine Scotch deerhound in Baltimore in '0(i. I bad him nearly eight years and I tell 3-011. sir, I felt like shooting myself when I lost him. The Mexicans poisoned him because he wruidu't let them come near my smokehouse at. n'.gbt. "No square, siraight forward poison, either, for it took him a whole week to die. 16 just went through me like a knife to hear him whine, and perhaps I ought- to have put him out of his mis ery, '"but I was thinking of all lh scrapes we badhei ;'jd each other o:it of we had froxen and starved togeth er all over Texas and Arkansas and I couldn't kill him while there.was the ghost of a chance of his pulling through." The voice of the old rough became inarticulate at the recollection. He had spread the dog'3 couch at the side of his own bed, and patted his shaggy coat till he lay silent and motionless. But late in the evening when the logs in the lire-place had flickered al most to their last, the hound raised his head and placed it ou his master's arm, looked into his eyes and sank back dead, like the last pressure of the human hand, "a farewell mutely spok en but hard to forget" Youlii's Com panion. X Lesson in Etiquette. A yourg man stood in a doorway on Saturday evening. Another young man anil a voting woman passed. "Hel lo, Mary!" called the young man who stood, loudly, to the companion of the young man who walked. That young man stopped walking, deposited his girl in another doorway, came back to the other young man and gave him an unmerciful beating. "What did you do that for?" demanded the vanquished one as poon as he had a chance to speak. "You insulted the lady I was with," was the reply. "I didu't do any thing but say 'Hello, Mary!' and, any wav, don't you know that she's my sis ter?" "Yes, I know that, but you had no right-to attract attention to her on a crowded street by hollering at her. Do you suppose that the crowd knew that vou are the brother? What would they think of a girl thus rudely accost ed?" It was a severe lesson in street etiquette. Buffalo Express. Society Conversation. The flimsy foundation upon which so-called "society" conversation and wit rest nowadays received a good il lustration yesterday in a parlor of a hotel in this city. The group was com posed of several elderly ladies of dowager-like rotundity, whose fresh cheeks and bright eye3 showed that the god dess of health and they were on more than speaking terms, and one young iv-m-i:in vvIkiso eharms of face and form indicated slight need of acquaintance with cosmetics or with medicine. Two gentlemen joined the ladies. "O, come here," cried out the young est, pointing to her smiling .elders, "I want to show you two people who have never taken quinine." Everybody immediately laughed aloud, aud when the mirth had subsid ed enough so that speech' was again possible oneof the gentlemen cried out: "How inconsiderate!" Then they all laughed loudly again. What at? "Minneapolis Journal. A Supposititious Case. A woman on Lafayette street east rushed out the other d'ay and informed a policeman that she had seen a big dog crawl under her barn, and she be lieved the aniiiial mad. The officer went around by way of. the alle3-, ac companied bythe usual crowd, and af ter peeking iind peering for some time he shot three bullets under the barn to scare the dog out. After the third shot a movement was heard, and presently the long end of a colored man crawled into view. After backing out and brushing the dirt out of his eyes he added: "Was it me you was shooting at?" "I supposed" it was a dog under there," replied the officer. - "Wall, sah. doan' yo' ever.'pose no mo'! It's dangerous." , And he showed a bullet hole in his cap and another in his coat as proofs of the accuracy of the officer's aim. He had crawled under after a rabbit which had escaped from a neighbor. "It's all right," he said as the officer apologized, "but doan' you spose no mo'! You jist keep right down to cole facts. Dis 'sposin' around ar1 what gits pussons into serus truble." De troit Free Press. Consumption Cured.
