I't is a heat rather than a cold. One does not "catch" cold; instead, the cold catches the victim and gives him 'a fever, Ono; "catches" a cold because, for some reason the•s�sin lacks resistance. Apply a cold -water compress ?o a person's hear for several hours and he will begin, to complain .thathis forehead is sore and painful; he Will have neuralgic pains in his forehead; the skin and the flesh become sore. sometimes it is necessary to keep an ice bag over the heart. When the ice bag has been kept there half an hour twofor three times a day; for two or three weeks, the patient, in most cases, begins to complain of soreness in that particular region. That ]rain is called "rheumatism," for lack of a better term. It is not rheumatism at all,' but simply a painful, sensitive condition due to the lowering of. the blood temperature in that region; which permitted the waste matters to accumulate in/these tissues, and as a result •the nerves and other tissues have become abnormally sensitive. ' Thus in a general way *0 may say that the cause for taking an ordinary cold is lowering of the temperature of the blood, either locally' or general- ly. If a person has been perspiring from exercise 'and sits down and lets the.wind blow on him he soon begins to feel chilly. •Wl•=10 he was exercis- ing, his muscles were generating heat. For a muscle generates heat just as a'dynamo generates electricity. , By its action heat is generated, just as by the revolution of the armature of the dynamo electricity is generated—and, in fact, in a very similar way; not in the way a stove generates heat, but in the way a dynamo generatbs' electric- ity. If a person perspires when exercis- ing it is .because he generates more heat•then is needed to keep the body warm, so it is necessary that the body should be cooled, and perspiration is simply the effort of the body to"cool itself. Bathing the skin with water and allowing, the water to evaporate also has the effect of cooling the, skin. Now when the perspiring individual ceases to exercise and sits down the effect is that of putting out a fire or blowing, out a light. The extra gen- eration of heat ceases; so the evapora- tion goes on without any extra heat being produced, because the skin is wet and the clothing contains mois- ture and the eya.poration causes a chilling of the body. It takes but a few minutes to pro- duce this result; then in order to warm the body up, the muscles are set into spasmodic contraction. There is shivering and sneezing, which are signs of a general spasm. When one sneezes he does, not sneeze with his nose, but through it, It is the entire body that is exercis- ing. Every muscle contracts. The feet are lifted up from the floor. There is a jump of the whole body. It would be quite impossible to hold anything steady in your hand when you sneeze; but the motion is parti- cularly of the expiratory muscles. There is a sudden contraction of these muscles, with an explosive ef- fort of nature to warm the body. When you sneeze yoti say, "Oh! I am taking cold." That is a mistake. You have taken cold. Your tempera- ture has been lowered and you already have the cold and the muscular spasm is the effort of nature to cure it. Now if yon want to help nature, the hest way is to keep right on ex- ercising. You feel a little shiver started here and theee and you feel chilly. Now set your muscles to work as hard as you can. That is the quickest way to stop the shivering. Certainly one can prevent himself from taking cold. One sits in church and a draft blows on the back of his neck. He says, "I am going to get a cold. I shall have a stiff neck tb- Morrow." You do not need to have a cold. Just make the muscles contract as hard as possible; keep them working so they will keep the skin waren and you will not take the cold. And the best of it is that one does not have to take gymnastic exorcises or walk in order to exercise. One can sit perfectly.still and work so hard as to make himself perspire freely—by making every muscle of his body tense. The hands can be kept straight at the sides, with the muscles perfect- ly rigid. Make every muscle of the is undoubtedly the nosteckono nical and what appears 3 to., be 'c1Aeap' ht price will prove to be extravagant in use.

CATCHING COLDS. - QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS: As our forebears, who first got the knack of building houses, found them comfortable, conducive toease if not to dignity, they"became enervated by constantly rebreathing their' own peas- onous exhalations mingled with those of their family, their boarders,. and such of their animal friends which they could not bear to see suffer in the raging elements without. Then coughing and sneezing, by which par•ti- cies of germ -laden material was dis- semina.te8, helped infection along con- siderably. In short, people "caught colds." Next in order, in the race's evolu- tion came the fetish about night air; so that sleeping room's were kept herltetically sealed'. Bedroom wih- dews are even now, despite all the fresh air propaganda, nailed down come November, and kept se. (when properly they should have been nail- ed up) until March or even April. And yet, winter and summer, what air has the good Lord given us to breathe, at night, if not night air. Then people came more and more to overburden themselves with clothes, in which they could collect germs, that would thus be added to the as- sortment already existing in the. house. True, most germs cannot live for any length of time outside the liv- ing animal "host." And yet one can- not he sure that the germs in one's clothing are always dead ones. And let him who—bltil>lks his overcoat is germ -tree because it is well brushed, turn a vacuum cleaner on it, and note the result. Blow From a Cow. About 6 weeks ago our cow struck me with her horn on the left side of the bridge My nose, "knocking me out" I' have suffered since with a pain that extended•from the place struck up over the eye and brow and through the eye ball. Do you think there could he any damage; could an abscess be forming without some_dis- charge from the nose or signs from the outside. I am taking—for the pain; am I taking too much. Answer—Have a doctor skilled in the nose and throat examine you at once. Such an ailment lasting six weeks without recovery is like to mean an abscess ih the frontal sin- uses—not necessarily a grave condi- tion, but one which may well become soif neglected. There may be pus pocketed in those sinuses and not yet appearing at the nostril. The drug you mention may relieve but never cure such a condition. I cannot judge if you are taking too much; but over- dosage is -like to depress seriously -the vital processes, Reducing Lips? Can you tell me of a tre`atment that will reduce my lips and mouth? Would pinching the lips reduce them? Do tell me something and make me happy. Answer—Sorry; but I know of no treatment I could guarantee. The remedy you mention would be likely to increase, to have the effect the op- posite of that which you desire. body rigid and you will see pretty soon •th t you a are breathing hard. Pretty soon you are taking deep breaths. You may say that it is hard to do that, but nevertheless one can sit' quietly in church or other gatherings and look the speaker in the face and at the same moment work as hard as though he were running to catch a train, or one may sit at his desk and dictate important letters or papers and et the same time be do- ing hard physical work, Thus one does not need to take cold because he is sitting still, for one does not need to be idle and relaxed just because one is sitting still. age•_: %' Se 14 Many men insist on feeding silage to horses so as to reduce feed costs. Many men have fed silage to horses for years with success. Many men have poisoned horses by feeding them accidentally moldy silage, • Right there is the trouble. Horses are so valuable and so easily ]tilled by damaged feed that caution Inas repeatedly been urged in the use of silage. On •the average farm it is better not to feed it at all than to feed it and lose even one horse. Those who are :determined to feed'silage should follow a rigid system of close- ly scrutinizing every forkful as it 10 taken from the silo. When a little moldy pocket of silage is discovered it must be rejected. Silage should be thrown down by daylight so that in- spection is easy. Of course the general quality of the silage must be as perfect as possible, and that is determined by care and thorough tramping as the silo is filled. Kindness is notthrown away even though shown towards the members of one's own family: L frR[Fi^2..:.nCF.WIE YSLCSSO W3sYfIt3.,`4GME,^37.11=1CtRA�S^J.@,rASiCnP.

I have girls in my business who have worked splen- didly for three, four or five years, making themselves steadily more valu- able. Then upon reaching some parti- cular position, they've stopped short. I have several who are not worth a hit more than they were five years ago. On the contrary they are worth less, for in business quite as markedly as anywhere else in life decay sets in when growth stops. Sooner or later those girls, although they are doing their work without blunders or notice- able failure, will be compelled to give way to girls who have life ambitions girls who are eager and interested, alert to make both themselves and the business in which they are engaged continually more valuable." If girls would only understand that! We, see it so clearly in all depart- ments of life! The minister who is not constantly gaining new visions of truth and making new applications 6f truth to life soon wearies his congre- gation. The physician who does not keep up with new discoveries and methods finds his patients turning to other and more progressive doctors. The business man who is not con- stantly on the alert to study every new suggestion soon finds himself out- distanced by competitors. There is a sadder failure still, Tho mother who does not make it the great purpose of her life to keep in touch with her children as their interests broaden comes sooner or later to the heart -breaking hour when she discov- ers that she has lost their confidence —that she is left behind. • Failures all, pitiful, tragic failures, because they had short-term ambi- tions, because the goals to which they looked forward were so fall short of —eternity! Daffodils in Pots. Daffodils in pots should not . be forced. Procure the hest possible bulbs.

After the pots have been' partially filled with soil, set the bulbs an inch apart and all but the extreme tips covered with the soil well firmed, so as to leave three-quarters of an inch of pot above the soil to hold water. As soon as the bulbs are planted set the pots away in a cool dark place for about eight to ten weeks, in the mean- time not permitting the soil" to dry out, If the leaves are light in color shade for a day or two, • giving full light gradually, finally moving into the full sunlight and heat of the ordinary live ing roam.

The amount of lime soil contains is ascertained by the use of muriatic acid. When the acid comes into con- tact with the soil the chemical action releases gas from the Rine or lime- stone in the soil. Soil from different parts of the same field will test differently. A field which may show the proper lime con- tent may have low spots that require heavy liming, and the only way to know is for the farmer or gardener to have a soil tester and to make his own tests. Tillers of the soil lose in two_ways by not knowing exactly how to use lime. One way is to guess that the land needs lime and to apply it with- out knowing how much to apply. One anxious to produce good crops may apply considerably more lime than is required, and the surplus lime will be wasted. The other manner of losing is by taking it for granted that the soil does not reed lime where it may require it, and the loss in this case will be in the short crop har- vested, whereas the proper applioation of lime should have resulted in a pro- lific yield. A soil tester is now made that is sold at a reasonable price and any one can in a few moments' time and at a trifling• expense tela exactly the re- quirements of the soil and add the proper amount of lime or, ground lime- stone, The ,gas released from the soil forces water in the gauge up to vari- ous levels, according to the amount of gas generated, which depends on the amount of limo in the soil. The water in the gauge shows exactly the number of, pounds of lime or ground limestone required per acre on the soil tested to give proper re- sults to growing crops. The little apparatus' works to perfection and •is sosimple that any one can,operate it. 1HEUMATJSM GOES IF HOOD'S IS' USED The genuine old reliable Hood's ¢Sarsaparilla corrects the acid 'condi- tion of the blood and builds up the Whole systeln, It drives out rhelnna- Wm because it cleanses the blood.

A curtain lady who was travelling in Canada, collecting data for her next book, stayed ., with a farmer's wife, When the. farmer came in from the fields he stopped some time to rub his gum -boots on the doormat. "Where is your husband?" asked the visitor. I thought I heard him at the •doer." "He's cleanin' his 'gums' on the mat, ma'am," said the farmer's wife. When the book was sent to the publisher this passage caught his at- tention: "Canadian settlers in the out-of-the- way districts can't get tooth -brushes, so they use the doormat!" Keep seed corn away from rats and mice. - A lot of bulbs in pots will cheer up and brighten up the home the com- ing winter, but they must be planted now.
