WHEN YOU OPEN A NEW 1300K.
At this season, when books are used
so generally as Christmas remembran-
ces, some information which Is perhaps
not so generally known as it should be
will help materially, in prolonging the
life of a good malty gifts. It seems
very surprising, and yet it is neverthe-
less true, that a great many people who
know•]iterature web and who do a great
deal of reading, have no knowledge as
to how a new book should be treated.
One who knows anything about book-.
binding and who spends any time in a
book store cannot help but be very
frequently shocked when a prospect-
ive buyer takes up a new book and
bends it at the middle by force. No
binding has yet been invented which
will stand treatment like this, and it is
surprisug that there are not more com-
plaints nude of defective binding when
such usage is followed,
The following hints are given by one
who is well aceuainted with the secrets
of the bindery, and would be well
worth while observing.
Please do not grasp a new book firm-
ly with both hands and pull it open by
force, -Such treatment is almost cer-
tain to break the back and loosen the
leaves of the best-boind book.
But place it with backbone down on
a clean table or shelf. Turn down first
one cover, then the other, running the
first and second fingers firmly once o•
twice along the inside edge of the page,
close to the back. Then continue the
operation, taking fen or fifteen leaves
at a time from alternate sides of the
book (running the fingers along the In-
side edge each time) till the centre is
reached.
1 Three •minutes of this treatment
I given to at new book will prolong its
life remarkably, and will also snake it
1 easier to hold open as one reads.
This applies to all books, but especi-
ally to the 'finer bindings such as are
found In new hymn books and Bibles.
In many cases manufacturers have re-
, turned to them copies of Bibles and
hymn books with Ipose leaves and
broken backs which are claimed to
have been defective, but which, on ex-
amination by one • who knows, reveals
at once that the book has been brut-
ally handled.

PNEUMONIA
There is nothing especially unusual
or alarming in the increase of deaths
from pneumonia at the beginning of
cold weather, but there is something
actively helpful in the official recog-.
eition that pneumonia is an infections
disease.
The way to escape infectious dis-
ease is to keep out of the path of its
germs. In the case of pneumonia that
is not possible for must people, but
when the danger of infection is fully
recognized it is possiliwe to avoid, to a
greater extent than most of us at -

tempt, contact with people who sneeze
and cough. The next precaution is to
keep the body in condition so that it
will resist geniis of all diseases, Chills
give to pneumonia germs their best
chance to take hold, and 'most of us
can he more careful to avoid chills
than we care. Warm clothing in one
method of protection, but that does
not mean clothing so heavy as to start
perspiration when one is in ..••heated
condition Is almost certain to produce
a chill if the day happens .t0 be raw,
For indoors livers and workers, light
absorbent clothing, sufficient for their
normal occupation, is best, with good,
warm wraps for protection when they
go out of doors. Baths and exercise
which 'keep the skin and the other
excretory mediums in good condition
are almost admirable means of pro-
tection,
But perhaps more important than
anything is not to get frightened over
an "epidemic" of pneumnia. Fear
tends to paralyze the normal protec-
tive
roteative functions of the body and to leave
its victims easy prey for alt the dis-
eases that fly. There is en old fable
of a plague which was permitted to
enter a city on condition that it would
stay only 10,000. The resultant deaths
reached 1000,000, and when the per-
sonified plague was reproached, Isi'
replied `I saw only 50,000, Fear slew
the rest." .When pneumonia is about,
keep warm; but also keep cool. Do
not get either chilled or frightened.
In either condition you become an
ideal germ -catcher.

it emerged Iron the shadow and again
leaned forth its light upon the silver
