Few Colds from F.xposnr.
I remember some enrions fact of my
own experience in the army in 18C2 and
1SC3.' I was not strong, and indeed was
hardly fit to tie in the army at all. And
when I ftmnd myself exposed all day
long to a steady rain, and at night to
the outdoor air, with no fire, no change
of clothing, no shelter bat a canvus cov
ering open at both end, through which
the rain dripped contantlv, it seemed
certain that the "death o' cold so often
predicted must surely follow.
Why it did not follow was more of a
mystery then, however, than it is now.
For I was in a place where the art of
man no longer excluded one of the prime
principles of health. 1 breathed pure
air because I could not help it. During
service of fifteen months, with severe
Mposnres. but frethair ; constar.tly. the j
aame immunity from colds prevailed
I remember, too, that when I came
home from the army the blessing and
thecjre st bat nn of the mines of
civil life came back together. I ha I

Worshlln( Medicine Bottles.
An eminent lady missionary in Bur
inah recently gave Dr. A. J. tiordon an
Instructive but somewhat startling cha
ter from her experience. In one of her
tours, she said, she came upon a village
where cholera was raging. Having with
fcer a qiantity of famous painkiller
he went from house to bouse admin
istering the remedy to the invalids and
left number of bottles to be nsed after
he had gone. Returning to the village
some months after, the missionary was
liiet by the head man of the community,
who cheered and delighted her by this
intelligence: "Teacher, we have come
ver to your side. The medicine did n
so much good that we have accepted
your Ood."
vYerjoyrij m mis news, sne was con
ducted to the bouse of her informant,
who, opening a rootn, showed ber the
painkiller bottles solemnly arranged in
row npon a shelf, and before tbem the
whole company immediately prostrated
themselves in worship. Modern Church.

The pawnbrokers' sales shops have held
me before their windows many and many
an honr since childhood, and today when
I pause heft trigone I feel a keener touch
of the Impulses of youth than anything
else can bring back to me. There is much
bnmbtig in the iiowery, but there is no
bumbugin what these stores display. Pa
thos and trngHy are constantly exhibited
and enacted on every block of that throb
bing avenue, but it all seems to me as
nothing beside the tragic and pathetic
tales that are told by the goods in these
tore front. The vanity of man is felt
by every poor stranger who is knocked
About and joetled by tha crowds that
throng the pavement, but for a sermon
npon vanity I know no text in all New
1'ork like the contents of one of thee
windows. Julian Ralph in Century.

How Muskrals Are Trapped.
Trapping is one of the modes by wbicb

matle of boards about 6 inches wide and
3 feet long. These are nailed together
like an ordinary box trap, the open ends
being secured by swinging doors of wire
network, fastened to the upper part of
both entrances. These doors allow easy
ingress to the trap, but ouce in the rat
cannot get ont without opening the door
by pulling it to him, which sorret they

ire put in the leads running from the
bouse to the water when the tide is at
low ebb and tlie rats are out feeding.
