He based his advice xn the principle that the body is a living oven, giving out it heat by radiation and conduction, but better built than the dead uvea, in that it is self-regulating, mwnys keeping its heat at about P dogrees, Fahrenheit. The skm in the natural clothing, artificial ci(huig being mere!' a. protection a-amst extreme heat and cold, v.etttugr, dirt and injury.

However wiiih a sudden return from "science1' to ''empiricism," he said TJhaf oJottiuig could not be the same for all, but each person must find out by trial what best suits his individual needs. Such an attack was not to be borne, and Prof. Jagar went to Berlin, to define his theories, and to show that he, too, fad soma 'science."

It is singular how the me tropolis is obliged to go back to substantial brick. In the good old knickcrbocker days, Manhat tan was nearly wholly given up to brick, which was imported from Holland. Many of .these older houses, rilics of those ancient times, remain in as good condition as ever, to-day. aftr r a lapse of two centuries In the flush times of New York, during and immedi ately after the war, brick would not do for that ambitious cit3, and stone, principally marble and brownstonc was used instead. It was louiul not so good, because it scaled, and was otherwise worn and injured by the weather. The stone was followed by the iron age, which can be traced by rows of iron buildings on the principal business thoroughfares of the city. Neither marble nor iron were found to make a house as Jong-lived and as safe against decay or fire as brick, and back to brick New York is now going. A weli con structed brick house will last for centuries, whereas one of iron will begin to show its ago at the end of the first century. No kind of stone can stand the severe Atlan tic climate without scaling or split ting. Brick is the building mate rial of the future for eastern folk, and the average urban dweller" can reverse the famous Augustan dec laration in reference to Rome, and sav: t'l found it a city of marble, I left it a citv of brick' To Fishermen.

"Never pay your fare until you are compelled to," was the first piece of wisdom thrown at him. 'And, pray, why not?" he asked. "Because 3our chances are better in case of trouble." ""Will ou kindly explain yourself, sirV" said Lyell. "Well," answered the American, "when I was traveling up the river last March, somebody cried out, 'Passenger overboard!' The captain hurried to the office and atked 'Has the man overboard l paid his fare?' On being answered in tho affirmative, he turned to the pilot and said indifierentlv, 'Go ahead; itTs all right.'
