J u. ;t. ; Mow to Keep Warm and Avoid Colds. Some people may not know that when exposed to severe cold a feeling jf warmth is really created by repeatedly tilling the lungs in this manner : Throw tl;e shoulders well back, and liold the head well up. Inflate the lungs slowly, tbe air entering entirely :hrough the nose. When the lungs ire completely filled, hold the breath or ten seconds or longer, and then expire it quickly through the mouth. After repeating this exercise when >ne is "chilly," a feeling of warmth #ill be felt over the eutire body, and sven to the feet and hands. It is im)ortant for all to practice this exercise nany times each day, and especially vhen in the open air. If the habit sver becomes universal, ftienconsump:ton and many other diseases will arely, if ever, be heard of. Not only while practising the 'breathing exercise" must the clothing >e loose over the chest, but beginners vill do well to remember, in having heir clothing fitted, to allow for tbe jerinanent expansion of the chest of >ne, two, aud even three inches, vhir>h will eventually follow. One might with propriety say that 00 many people choke or stifle the ikin by an excess of clothing, and, as 1 consequence, take cold easily. Some mpurities ar? thrown out of the sys;eni by the skin, as others are by the ui.gs, tiie bowels, and the kidneys. It is absolutely essential to health hat the emanations from the skin )a*s easily through the clothing, rhis?which is called "transpiration" -may be interfered with by an excess >f clothing, or by clothihg of a very :lose texture. All who wear Indiaubber coats know how uncomfortable hey cause them to feel after tbey *iave uiiii mi n ohnrt limp Ordinary clothing will not, of :ourse, prevent transpiration, but an >xcess will interfere with it; and vhere too much clothing is worn the ame noon becomes foul, uuless the he outside air can freely mingle with he gases from the body and so dilute hem. Some wear the thickest and heaviist undervests which they can buy, tnd such people are very generally the victims of frequent colds. Following the rule of light clothing hey would be much safer from the luDgeru of exposure were they to wear wo light undervests instead of one rery thick and heavy.?Selected.

L'o use it, pour some of the size into a hallow dish?a sauce plate is good? )ein^ sure to shake it up well first, so hat the oil and varnish will mix. Put some of the powder into another >late. Dip your brush in the size, and nix up a little of the powder at a irae. It should be thick enough to orm a good body, and must not run. [t dries rapidly.

The Coi.lie.?'The name "collie," used for the Scotch sheep dog, takes its rise not from any peculiarity o! af breed iu the dog, but from the kind sf sheep he once drove. In Scotland there was a class of sheep with blacl? faces and legs called "collies," from the Anglo-Saxon "col," signifying black. The dogs which looked aftei these sheep were collie dogs, which in time became shortened to "collies hence the name which the sheep dog now bears. How to Become A Christian.The parable of the lost sheep teachef how to become a Christian. One says "I have been seeking Christ for years but cannot lind^Him." Do you nol see that instead of you seeking Hin He has really been seeking you al these years, and that you have been simply running away from Hiir all the wnile? The way to become t Christian is just to stop in your wan dering and let Christ take you up oil His shoulder und bear you away re joicing. People often say, "I am uol yrood enough to be a Christian." Bui will the lost sheep, faint and hungry, torn and bleeding, lying upon tbe jagged rocks, nigh to death, have to wail till its wounds, are healed, and its strength restored, before the shepherd will take it up? And must the lost sinner wait for fitness before Christ will save him? Oh, no! to become si Ceristian is simply to stop resisting. t( stop trying to lind the home alone, ant to yield to Christ, saying, "Lord Jesus save me." That moment you will b( lifted up by those mighty arms ant laid upon the shoulder of the omnipotent love?saved.?Wesminster Teach er. So it Can.?"The Church car grow," says the Southern Churchman "under despotisms or democracies, un der emperors or presidents; but tin Church cannot grow unless the gospe is preached, ami preached in its pur it; and power." When you get into a tight place am everything goes against you till i seems a.s if you couldn't hold out i minute longer, never give up then, f?> that is just the place and time the tid will turn. "A large part of the drill of life con sists in overcoming hostile disposi tions. Kaeli time we have conquere* some resentment or prejudice we hav made a distinct gain in the way to ; well-regulated behavior." There is no sweeter consolation t the troubled and misunderstood c-iin< of heaven, than this thought. N perfidy of man can rob it of it:< mean ing; no whip of scorn can scourg away its confidence; no delay of la\ can waste its Century gathered strength. We shall be judged of OJoi and not of man, in receiving our la* reward. # ' Thft Live Santa Clansll Has taken his departure until next Christmas, but ^ CAMERON'S i 1\1aiit Van It Bnnlfn^ ife ^4 ANA I iTO 1 Win i Ml/IP ! iMC,s Still occupies the same old stand opuosite the C. & G.
