‘\ Overheating the house, too, with young ehildren is especially to be guarded against, as it is very apt to cause colds and croup. Watch the daily bath carefully ; many can- not stand the daily plunge without ill effect, who would be greatly benefited by sponging and vigorous rubbing with a course towel. For those who dread the cold the following is a. delightful way of taking an exhilarating morning tub : Stand in hot water deep eno to cover the ankles, fill a basin with cold water, sponge 03 the body rapidly, and rub vigor- ously, putting on Warm fiannels before dry- ing the feet. In this Way the most delicate person will not experience any chill. The great point is the rapidity Wit-h which it is one ; the whole bath should not exceed two minutes. We close these suggestions by a quotation from still another eminent doctor who has written a. great deal on this very subject : “ Ieannot overrate the neces- sity for plenty of fresh air sunshine and perfect cleanliness," he says, “ both in the house and about the person ; and it is only when these primary rules of hygiene are fully carried out that we can hope to keep the health which is given us.” A writ-er, evidently of a practical turn of mind, tells a contemporary how easily the wakeful dyspeptic can be nade to slip off into the land of dreams. He says : into the land-of dreams. He says : “ The dyspeptic, of course, eats a. light supper, may resort to the use of a towel. wet with tepid water and covered with a dry cloth, the Whole then applied to the pit of the stomach. Before the sufferer knows it she will float into a shadow land, such is the sympathy between the organs of digestion and the brain. Owing to the position of the stomach, a light sleeper ought to sleep on the right side instead of the left, never on the back. If there is a. tendency to cold feet a thin woolen blanket may line the lower third of the bed. The limbs ought not to be greatly flexed, a position which prevents free circulation and they should rest one upon another lightly. The night light, where used, ought to he a tiny taper and not gas or kerosine, both of which devi- talize the air. A darkened room is the host. Nature puts out her light and draws the curtain of darkness for a purpose. \Vith good habits, physical and mental and a de- termination not to deal with anodynes, sleep may be won from its shyest lair to watch over the restless pillow." Mrs. Dikiukâ€"I am afraid I’ll have to dis- miss our new French maid. Mrs. Van Wickâ€"Indeed ! \Vhy? Mrs. Dikinkâ€"I notice that she always has a. smile when my husband speaks to her. Mrs. Van VVickâ€"I have noticed that, too but he always speaks to her in French. Ameeting of 3,000 striking printers in Vienna. announced the preparation {or a. general international strike, perhaps to m- clude Ameri'a and Alltralia. Certain it is in any case that the two fundamental principles of fresh air and fresh water are the alpha and omega of hygiene ; and, moreover, it is also unhappily true that the neglect of these essentials is not confi ned by any means to the poorer classes. Few, comparatively, seriously consider that the proper drainage of the body by the pores is as necessary to the well being of our earthly tabernacle as sanitary plumbing is for our houses. Dr. Brown, of Edinburgh, in his lectures to workingmen on “ Health " tells them “ first and foremost, consider your skin, take great care of it, for on its health a. great deal depends ; keep it clean, keep it warm, keep it dry, give it air. You should take time every morning to wash, not only your face, but your throat and breast with cold water, and rub yourself quite dry with a hard towel till you glow all over, and on every Saturday night you must manage to give a regular scrubbing of your whole body.” Of course he was speaking to work- jngmen to whom the daily “ tub ” was an impossibility, but even In these latter days, when Dame Fashion has decreed that ma« tutinal tubbing is necessary, it is by no means as general a custom as one would suppose. .x u ,t,,,r,,:_ _rL maidens proves that the regime of the day is a good one. There are a few general principles to observe in the hygiene of a house that it might be well to impress upon young mothers, although the lack of observance which is seen is not due to want of know- ledge so much as want of care. Every mother should see by personal supervision that each member of the family becomes habituâ€" ated to sleep with the Window more or less open according to the season. If there are stationary basins in the rooms or in the adjoining bathâ€"rooms, she should enjoin the constant and free use of disinfectants. If any one is obliged to sleep in a room with such a basin, :1. good plan is to throw a damp towel over it before going to bed. Biting the nails is an exceedingly danger- ous practice. as the biler never knows when to stop, and at any moment is liable to bite into “ the quick " and cause blood poisoninv. Even when the utmost care is taken of the teeth, a. poisonous secretion is apt to collect on them, and the entrance of a. minute por- tion 0! this into the circulation may prove as certainly fatal as the pus on a. surgeon’s scalpel. “ What is the best disinfectant?” asked Ian anxious mother of a very prominent; \physiciun. “ Cleanliness, madam, and fresh air,” he replied promptly. And here is an- dther example of the same kind : “ Is it not, odd that your children should have had 53 ifew contagious diseases?” said a. friend {'90 a. __.l_.[, , It is certain that the love of water is not as inherent a. quality With our men as with our British cousins.

And here is an- dther example of the same kind : “ Is it not add that your children should have had so few contagious diseases?” said a. friend to a. woman of fashion, Whose large family had been singularly free from illness. “ Do you know I really think it is because their Eng- lish governess keeps them so well scrubbed,” was the reply. “ She has a. theory that it destroys germs, and the children are washed and brushed whenever they come in. I really believe she is right, and at all events it has given them rosy, healthy skins.” Certain it is in my case that the two Goozl Suggestions for Dyspeptics m TO KEEP WELL. Poison of the Teeth.

Ody of Griffith Pritchard, the Snoden guide who perished in a. snowstorm on the 25th of March, while descending from the summit. Pritcherd reached the top in safety, but was advised not to attempt the descent, as there was every indication of a storm. He resolved to do so, however, and was not seen afterwards. Several parties searched the mountain, but the depth of the snow and the severity of the weather precluded any hope of recovery. The fine Weather of the past few days has dissolved the snow, and on Friday the numerous searchers di- vided themselves into several parties, taking all sides of the mountain. Thomas John Roberts discovered the unfortunate guide on he Rhyd-ddu side, four and a. half miles from Llanberis. His hat was first picked up, and then the body was discovered, standing, in a. leaning attitude, beneath an overhang- ing rock. It was in such a state of decom- position that it was resolved to prepare a. coflin in which to take it to Llanberis. “ The sufl'ering is while the resuscitated person is being brought back to conscious- ness. Then it is he often suflers physical pain and mental misery. It is a. merciful dispensation of God and nature that, when the last moments of the dying man are at hand, vital forces give out, and the long- drawn-out gasps for breath come and go, the apparent, sufferer is happily in a. coma.- tose condition, and so passes painlessly into the other life.” Early on Friday morning a party of 170 men started from Llanberis to search for _the “Even in cases of death by hanging, Where the prolonged agony of the sufferer is feelingly described by witnesses, it, is tea.- 801mny certain that iua. few moments the person becomes unconscious and dies in that condition. Such has been the experience of persons accidentally or purpoaely hanged, but afterward resuscitated. It is a. fact that people who have been nearly drowned agree in the statement that aftei'a few moments of painful struggle a. feeling of tranunillity ensues.

APlIyslclan Says It Exists Mainly In tbc Beholder's Imagination. “ Many persons wonder,“ said the house doctor of a well-known hospital to a re- porter, “ how physicians can Watch unmov- ed the death of persons Whose dissolution is seemingly accompanied by evidence of great suflering, and the remark is a. common one that doctors are heartless and unfeeling. This harsh criticism is founded on a. wrong idea. of things. The fact is that what is known as the death agony is largely restrict- ed to the imagination of the watcher at the bedside of the dying person. The visible spasms and distortions of the facial muscles which in many cases mark the ending of life are not only painless, but take place uncon- sciously so far as the dying person is con- cerned.
