Hints to Skaters.
As the season for skating is at hand,
the following excellent advice to those
who indulge iu the inspiriting recreation,
from a wise authority in such - matters,
will be found worthy of attention. The
preservation of health is an art of great
er importance than the restoration of
health ; yet few take the necessary pre
cautions iu keeping well ;
Skating is one of the most exhilara
tiog of all pastimes, whether on the ice
or o'er our parlor or ,ball Roots, with
rOlie - r — sl -- alg.:: --- A7liiiiliber Of lives have
been lost in connection with skating, the
following suggestions are made:
1. Avoid skates which arc strapped
on the feet as they prevent the circula.
tion, and the foot becomes frozen before
the skater is aware of it; be - eauso the
tight strapping benumbs the foot and
deprives it of feeling. A young lady in
Boston lost a foot in this way; allot lier,in
New York, her life, by endeavoring to
thaw her feet in warm water,after taking
off her skates. The safest kind are those
which receive the forepart of the foot in
a — kind of toe, and stout leather around
the heel, buckling in front of the ankle
only, thus keeping the heel in place
without spikes or screws, and aiding
greatly iu supporting the ankle.
2.• It is not the object so much to
skate fast as to skate gracefully; and this
is sooner and more easily learned by
Skating with deliberation; while it pre:
vents over heating, and diminishes the
chanCes of taking cold by cooling off too
soon afterward.
3. If the wind is blowing, a veil
should he worn over the face, at least by
ladies and by children, otherwise, fatal
inflamation of the lungs., 'pneumonia,'
may take place.
. 4. Do not sit down to rest a single
half minute; nor duinotstsud still if there
is any wind; nor stop a moment after the
"skates are taken off;but walk about so as
to restore the circulation about the feet
and toes and to prevent being chilled.
5. It is safer to 'walk home thanto ride
the latter is almost certain to give a cold.
6. Never carry anything in the mouth
while skating. nor . any hard subseince in
the hand, nor thriiio anything on the ice;
none but a careless,reckless fellow would
thus endanger a fellow skater a fall.
'7. If the thermometer is below thirty,
• aod. the win t is blowing, no lady or child
shOuld be skating.
8. Always keep your eyes about you,
liOking ahead and upward,not on the ice
that you may not run against some lady,
or learner.
9. Arrange to ;Lave an extra garment,
thick and heavy, to throw over your
shoulders the moment you cease skating,
and then walk Arne, or at least half a
mile, with your mouth closed, SJ that the
lungs may not be quickly chilled by the
by the cold. air dashing upon them
through the open mouth, if it passes
pi:dough the nose and head, it is warmed
"before it gets - to the lungs.
10. It would be a safe rule for no child
or lady to be on skates longer than an
hour at a time.—:7la/i's Journal of Health.
