How To Par.TK.NT Colds.--- A bad cold, like measles, or mumps, or any other similar aihnont. will run its course of about ten days, in spite of what may he done (or it unless re medial means ore cmpljycd within forty eight hour.o of its inception. Many a useful li c may be spared, to lie increasingly useful, by cutting a cold off iu the following SH fe hut simple manner: On the first day *S|r taking cold, there is a very unpleasant sensation of c!:i!!r.ee. The moment you observe* this, go !o v our room, ami stay there, iitnp it at such a temperature a* will entirely prevent this chilly feeling even if it dge grccs of Fahrenheit, In addition to this, put your feet ui water half leg deep, as hot as you can beur it, ud ding hot water, from time to tune for quarter of an hour, so that the water shall be hotter when you take your feet out, .‘him you put them in. Then dry them thoroughly, and put oil thick woollen stockings, even if it be summer, for summer colds arc more danger ous; and for twenty-four hums cal not bn nlotn of food, but drink as lurgoly as you de sire of any kind of warm tea. and at tho cud ts that time the cold will be entirely broken without uny medicine whatever, Efficient as the above mentis arc, not one in a (Fund a - to them, led on as most men are, by llie hope that a cold will pass away itself.
