Ir. Beverly Ilobinsou thus discourses
on the subject of coM.s and its conse
quences :
"If you start to walk Jiorre from a
down-town oillce, and carry your coat
on your ami. because walking makes
j yon feel warm, you are liable to take
chid. Therefore don't do it. If you
should take the same walk after eatinp;
a hearty dinner your full stomach will
be a protection to yon, but even then
my advice would be, don't take the
risk. A person properly clothed may
walk in a strong wind for a long time
without takinp cold, but if lie sits in a
room where there is a slight draft he
may take a severe cold in a very few
minntes. Therefore don't sit in a room
where there is a draft. Unless you are
affected bv peculiar nervous conditions
you should take a cold sponge bath in
the morning and not wash yourself in
warm water. Plunge baths in cold wa
ter are not recommended, neither is it
necessary to apply the sponge bath all
over the body. Occasional Turkish
baths are good, but those who have not
i taken them should be advised by a phy
j sician before trying there.. Warm muf
j tiers worn around the neck do not pro
j tect you from taking cold, but on the
; contrary, render you extremely liable to
; take cold as soon as you take them off.
j They make the throat tender. Ladies
ought to wear warmer flannel under
clothing than they now do. if one nuv
judge from the ai tides one sees hancine
I : . . 11.. .1 , .... . ft
j in me snow winnows or me shops, l'eo- ,
pie take cold from inhaling cold air
through their mouth, oftener, perhaps, j
' than by any othei. Ladies dress them
! selves up in heavy furs, go riding in their !
j carriages, and when tliev get home :
; wonder where they got that cold. It '
I whs y talking in the own air and thus j
j exposing the mucous membranes of the
; throat. The best protection under such
j circumstances was to keep the month
i shut. If people must keep their mouths i
j open in a chilly atmosphere tl.ey onsrht !
! to wear a filter. Above all, be careful I
j of your feet in cold, damp weather. ;
; Have thick soles on your shoes, and if
caught out in a rain which lasts so long ,
as to wet through your shoes despite t he j
thick soles, put on dry stockings as soon !
as you get home. lUit in cold, wet, i
slushy weather, don't be caught out '
without overshoes on. ltubbers are un
healthy, unless care is taken to remove
them as soon as you can get under shel
ter. They arrest all evaporation thro'
the pores of the leather. Cork soles are
a good invention. When you go into
your house or your office after being out
in the cold, don't go at once and stick
yourself by the register, bnt take off
your coat, walk up and down tho room
a little, and get warm gradually. Warm
ing yourself up over a register just be
fore going out in the cold is one of tho
worst things you can do. Never take a
hot toddy to warm yourself unless you
are at home and don't expect to go out
of the house again until the following
morning. In short, make some use of
your common sense, aud thus emulate
the lower animals.

A correspondent at IV-nton Harbor,
Michigan, sends us, says the Cultivator
and Country (lentUm-m, the following
statement by Parker Earle (a widely
known, liorticultuiist). in the Chicago
Timts, and requests our opinion of the
mode tor preservinc fence iost". In an
swer it may to stated that no srngle ex
periment, or no single series of experi
ments undei like ctrcumstances, can le
adopted as a rule for unlike conditions.
Our own observations and exiierin.-ents
have led uniformly to the opinion that
eoal tar (applied warm to dry wood) 13 a
nod preservative for timber under the
ground or exposed to wet and shade ;
bet does more harm than good if cxikjs-
ed to the action of the sun and weather.
T5ut varying cirenmstances may vary
the rnle. The character of the soil may
have a controlling influence, and exper
iments should be repeated in different
places and on different kind of wood.
The experiments of Mr. Larle are a val- j
uable contribution to such a series of 1
trial3. .For general application, we
would recommend tirst impregnating i
the whole cf the post with crude petrol- I
j eum as a general preservative, and when i
dry apply hot tar to the portion going 1
! into the ground, but none above. The I
i petrolenra wiM penetrate tbe pores, and
j the tar coat in will hold it there. The
J following is Mr. Earle's statement : j
j In building a fence around our young :
j orchard, several years agor we tried i
many plans for preserving the poeis. I
Having occasion to remove the fence j
this winler, we notexl the condition of ;
the posts as folioV3: Those set with no '
preparation were decayed an inch or
I more in inicKiiess ; tiiosw coated with a
j thick wash of lime was better preserved, J
j but were quite seriously attacked by j
worros ; those posts coated with hot tar '
j were perfectly sound' as when Srvt put
j in the ground ; those painted with pe
j troleum and kerosene were equally as
I sound and as good as new. Io fijture j
j we shall treat all posts in the following I
i manner lefore setting : Let the posts ;
j get thoroughly dry. aad then, with a 1
! In of cheap kerosene rind a whitewash ;
j brush, give the lower third of the post !
j trie part to go into the- ground, two or
three goej applications of the oil. let
ting it soak in well each time. lVts
to treated will not 1 troubled by woiais
or insects of any kind, but will resist -1e-cay
to a remarkable degree. This we
find to be the simplest, easiest and
cheapest roethod of preservation.

vexted. I have seen articles go the
rounds of the agricultural press, which
assert that hard collars never gall the
shoulders, or make sores, and rtccom
mending exchanging the soft leather col
lar for a wood or steel one. From my
j own experience I can assert that it is
I not so much the material of which a col-
lar is made that galls the shoulders, as
the manner of using it. In my early
farming I had heavy wooded anil tim
j be red land to clear up, and to market
, the lumber I cut from it. 1-or this I
i employed oxen, one winter working 13
i yoke. ()f course 1 used wooden tows
in the vokes. and I had to be very care
, fill and see that they fitted exactly to
' the shoulders of the teams, and that
thfse were oiled occasionally at night
, alter stabling them, or they would get
j so badly galled eveiy little while as to
i be thrown out of work till cured. I
have worked horses in ad sorts of ways
j for more than half a century, and never
j had a case of galled shoulders, except
) when the drivers neglected my direc
; tions about the collars. This was to
j rub inside every few days with a little
j neatsfoot oil ; and the moment they
found any dirt sticking like wax to the
J collar to wash it off with warm soap-
suds and then oil. Also,to oil any chaffed
j spot on the shoulder ot the horse or ox
i immediately on discovering it. An ex-
eel lent preventative of galls is not to re-
move the yoke from the ox or 'hi collar
from the horse when brought lito the
' stable from work until ali t! ' a veat is
; thoroughly dried upon them. T ie same
remarks as alve may be a ; pplied to
' the use of saddles ; or any part of the
harness which bapjiens to gall. If these
! are nicely fitted to the animal and kept
! clean, it must be an extra tendei skin
that will show even a slight chafing. An
; acquaintance of mine who worked a
i large number of mules towing canal
boats in New Jersey, informed me that
, he never removed a collar from an aui
: mal during the whole season kept it on
! all night in the stable as well as by day,
J In this way he rarely had a galled slioul
i der among the hundreds he annually
; employed. The continued wearing of
j the collar toughened the skin, yet kept
it sort and pliable. .1. II. A.Ucix, in JY".

Sjow Af- Rkd as Hlood. At a meet
ing of the Microseopal Society, held on ;
Monday evening. Dr. llarkness present
ed a bottle of 'Ted snow," which he ;
gathered last June in the Wasatch
Mountains. The red snow w:ts tuund on
the north sice of a spur which rose U
CKKJ feet above the level cf the sea.
When fresh, the snow bad the appear
ance of being drenched with bloos, aa
though some lare animal Ijad been
slain. The r?d snow is caused by the
presence of a one-celled plant called
pr'Aticocrua nn'HUs, which reproduces it
self by sub-division that is, the ct!l di
vides itself into several new cells. TL.s
ia done with great rapidity, and a few ;
cells lodged in the snow, uiejer favor
able conditions, soon will give it the ap
pearance called red snow. '
it was remarked that a phenomena of .
red snow has been observed from tho
earliest times, as Aiisiotle has a passue
! which is thought to refer to it. The
j subject was, however, lot sitrht of until
j brought up ty tl'e investigation of S;l-i-:
sure, who found it on the Alp:? in eX).
j He made chemie-.U tests winch showed
I him that the red color was due to the
; Presence of vegetable matter, which he
supposed mitrht be the pollen of some
plant. In an Artie exped'tion :m-
i tier Captain Koss brought some siH-ej- :
i mens from the cliffs around Baku's Bay,
j and they were examined by ei:::ne;it bo
j tanists, some of whom mistook the r.a- :
I tore of tho plant; and there was I erg .
j discussions as ta its piojier claiii.lrstiorj, j
j some holding it t be a fungus and some I
j a litcben ; but it was finally jtt at rest j
i as one of the r.niceliar algu. I
It is of interest also that Fcmt of the '
j early examiners pronounced the color'
i due to animalcules, but thi.i was dis- 1
: proved. Dr. Jarkness said tnat during
. his last visit to Kngland he saw the or- '
i iginal bottle r.f specimens brought from (
j the Arctic nn re than sixty ye-irs he fore
j and in which the protoc.cocus could still
j Ik seen wifu the microscope. ,

Deapexixo Floohs. The Philadel
phia Jirrortl mentions a plan proposed
by a builder in that city by which he
hopes to overcome the annoyance exper
ienced by the sound from upper floors :
"A six by three plank is inserted be
tween each ioists, and projecting four
inches beneath. Underneath the inter
vening plar.ks the ceiling boards are
nailed and -he space filled with sawdust
within an inch of the joists, By this
method the waves of sound are carried
off. and the most vigorous hammering
fails to be heard in the story beneath.
Thus, heavy machinery may be worked
on the fourth floor, while a student be
low will not lie disturbed in the least.
Preliminary tests have proved that this
plan is a success, and the idea has been
patented."

Take a small quantity of soft soap and
thicken it with Indian meal or flour,

way is to put it in a small bag, and lay
it upon the flesh. There is less danger
of taking cold after removing it than
with any other poultice, and it works
like a charm.

Tub road1 have been very bad for the
the past week remarks tne Centra l)n -orrnt,
and travel lias been much imped
ed by the mud. And no;v it is a good
time to say that we heard a practical
man discussing this subjects of roads a
few days ago. He paid that no beiler
Investment of money ccild be made by
this or any other town than to make all
the main roads for several miles from
the borough smooth and hard, so that
mud should never trouble tnt traveler.
A farmer will ordinarily prefer to drive
ten miles over a good road to trade rath
er than to go six in the mud. Then, too,
the wear and tear on horses, harnesses
and wagons are Items to Le considered.
It is claimed that money sp?nt on the
public highways is a better divestment
than a like sum put into a railroad
stock. Within the last quarter of a
century railroads have bt-en improved
so as to almost double the rate of epeed I
of the cars, with increased safety to
passengers ; smooth pavements take tho i
place of cobble stones in the cities, but '
very little practicnal improvement has I
been made in country roads. "Let sur- i
ervisors study the subject of makir.g j
hitihways. We can afford to have go:;J .
roads up here among the mountains as i
well as the farmers who cultivate lite
sandy loam of Bucks and Berks ecua- j
