The needs common to all women are so common that few regard their impor¬ tance. To say that warm rooms are essential to health and beauty sounds like a truism, but the fact is that among all well to do classes it is the rarest thing to find a really warm house. A heated house, burning up coal and vitality to¬ gether, is common, but not one so soundly built that rooms do not readily cool off, and where comfort is felt with moderate heat, or where draughts do not sow rheumatic twinges, with wrinkles to match. Out of doors dress and exercise keep up tho natural heat. Indoors tho quieter life and shutting off the greater part of the sun’s rays render the case different. The constant temperature of all occupied rooms should be enough to keep tho without blood at its normal heat of 98 degs. any chilling or change— say 73 to 78 degs. by day and 15 dega. lower by night Instead, wiien steam is up, or the furnace burns up, you will find tho glass at 83 dogs, on the north wall of rooms. Two Lours or less after the heat goes down the thin walls lose their heat immediately, and it is 43 degs. in tho same place. I describe what I have noted repeatedly in houses where comfort was supposed to be the first con¬ sideration. Such variations are enongh to try the Strongest frames. To say nothing of neuralgia and lung troubles, it is impos¬ sible to keep a good complexion through such ruinous changes of temperature. The heat dries it into fine wrinkles, the cold sends the blood inward, leaving tho face blue and features pinched. Let the husband who wishes to keep his wife ia freshness be careful that she has warm rooms to five in. The injur to the cir¬ „ culation which destroys all bloom and elasticity strikes deeper in time, causing failure of the heart or chronic inflam¬ mations. As you value bloom and long life, never permit yourself to be chilly for fivo minutes. No matter what ther¬ mometers say, if you are out of order enough to feel chilly the thing to do is to raise the heat till the blood absorbs heat and grows warm again. For heat is life, and the chilly precepts of certain hygienists who seem to consider comfort as a crime have cost nnsusj^cted victims. —Shirley Dare. Chief Among IIla Fellows.
