Some Informntlon on n Common Af fection Which Will Be New to Many Sufferers. In looking for the cause of colds, or any other disease, it is well to consider the first cause, rathec than the merely exciting or secondary one, which is only incidental to the disturbance. By doing this we can shape our life so as to avoid most of the disasters common to modern civilization. Ignorance of the laws of life, and a man's relation thereto makes of him a slave, while knowledge of these laws gives him freedom to instantly accept and enjoy ; the fruits of obedience, says Science of ! Health. The invariable cause of colds comes from within, not without. No one takes cold when in>a good vigorous! state of health, with pure blood coursing through his body, and there is no good reason why anyone in ordinary health should have a cold. It may come from insufficient exercise, breathing of foul air, want of wholesome food, excess of food, lack of bathing, etc., but always from some violation of the plain laws of health. There can be no more prolific cause of colds than highly-seasoned foods, as well as frequent eating. These give no time for the digestive organs to rest, and incite an increased flow of the digestive secretions. Thus larger quantities of nourishment are ab sorbed than can be properly utilized, and the result is an obstruction, com monly called a "cold," which is simply an effort of the system to expel the useless material. Properly speaking, it is self-poisoning, due to an incapa bility of the organism to regulate and . compensate for the disturbance. A deficient supply of pure air to the j lungs is not only a strong predisposing | cause of colds, but a prolific source of much graver conditions. Pure air and exercise are necessary to prepare the system for the assimilation of nutri ment, for without them there can be no vigorous health. The oxygen of the air we breathe regulates the appetite i as well as the nutriment that is built | up in the system. The safest and best way to avoid colds is to sleep in a room with the windows wide open, and to > remain out of doors every day, no mat ter what may be the weather, for at least two hours, preferably with some kind of exercise, if no more than walk ing. One should not sit down to rest while the feet are wet or the clothing damp. A person may go with the cloth ing wet through to the skin, all day, if he but keep moving. Exercise keeps up the circulation and that prevents taking cold. The physiologic care of colds is the prevention of their occurrence. The person who does not carry around an oversupply of alimentation in his sys tem, and furthermore secures a puri fied circulation by strict, sanitary cleanliness, thus placing himself in a positive condition, is immune to colds. A starving man cannot take cold. A careful diet would exclude the use of all narcotics, and all food that is not thoroughly appropriated. An over fed person is worse off than one who is underfed, because the overfed body is taxed to dispose of what cannot be ap propriated, and when not properly dis posed of, remains only to be an ele ment of danger. ; New Ideas in Collars. Every woman knows that much de pends upon the collar of her shirt waist. That is why the smart girl is always bothering her pretty head to think up new ideas in stocks. Among the novelties which she has designed is a plain stock of iinen slashed here and there all the way around. Through these slashes narrow black velvet rib bon is threaded, tying in a little knot just below the stock in front. The ribbon must be of sufficient length to have two long ends, for they display part of the charm of the collar. Clover shaped little pieces of white linen with their edges embroidered in black silk are made with a hole in the center, so that they may be strung on these vel vet ends of the tie. The narrow embroi dered turn-over collar gives the finish ing touch to the stock, which is embroi dered to match whatever color velvet ribbon is used. ? Woman's Home Com panion. Browned Hice. Browned rice is a fnvurite sanitarium dish, and one that is especially adapted to invalids, young children or old people who require a light supper if they would have a good night's rest. To prepare it, put the rice on tin plates in the oven and brown just as you would coffee. Stir frequently to pre vent scorching. It will require some little time to brown, but it can be at tended to while other work is going on and then put in glass cans until I needed. It should be a golden brown j when finished. Put a few spoonfuls i in a small saucepan with a little salt ) and water to barely cover. Cook rapid- I ly for 15 minutes, shtiking often to pre- | Tent sticking. When tender serve hot with milk or cream t<irup or fruit juice, though many prefer it without any ad dition. Browned rice is also excellent served as a vegetable with chicken, veal or lamb. ? N. Y.

Put apples in sirup as soon as pared so they won't discolor. Cook until soft, occassionally skimming the sirup dur ing cooking. Apples cook better cov ered with the sirup; therefore it in better to use a deep saucepan and have two cookings.

Great Bore Under the Alp* DI?? cliariffeM Water Enough to Furniiuli Dnlll Power. In the new Simplon tunnel under the Alps, which will be by far the greatest tunnel in the world, having a length of 14 miles, and which, it is now reported, will be completed in July,. 1905, the quantity of water flowing out of the southern end, from the many veins encountered in the heart of the mountain, amounts to 15,000 gallons, per minute, and furnishes sufficient power to compress the air by which, the drills are worked, and to refrig erate the tunnel. The necessity of re frigeration may be judged from the fact that the heat in the deeper parts of the tunnel rises as high as 140 de grees Fahrenheit when not artificially reduced, says the Scientific American. Life would be impossible in the tunnel, where 4,000 workmen labor, if a suc cessful system of refrigeration had not been devised. When a continuous hole through tiie mountain lias been made, llii'ii tiie temperature can more eas ily be kept down. Two-thirds of the work was completed last July, and the greatest obstacles have ndw been over come.
