Every second man working in Ontario's industries is sick with a cold some time during the winter. Women workers suffer to the extent of three out of every four. For thé' balance of the population--children, and those who work at home--we have no statistics, but féel sure their bill for sickness due to colds is just as heavy. YR y Cause. of the Common Cofd' A person sufféring from a cold can pass it on to others. The infectious material is' present in the discharge of the nose 'and throat; it can be transferred to others by coughing and sneezing. A person suffering from a cold will carry infection on his hands; he should therefore wash his hands before eating, and especially 'before handling milk or food to be used by others, He will also infect the cups, glases, dishes, etc, from which he drinks and eats; his dishes should be Ing asked how he got along with the bad boys, replied that he got along with them all right, for, he added, "I Just expel "them." There will prob. ably be a consensus of opinion that in view of his candid admission it was the teacher and not the scholar who should be expelled. And yet, says J. J.

Wayward boys, if taken at the right time and in the right way, can be converted into first-class men. Boys of sanguine temperament furnish the good boys and the bad boys of the world, mot the plous and viclous. They are as the name implies, full of blood, full of life, activity, mischief and fight. Yet, for the same reason, they are full of tenderness, sympathy and loving kindness. What shameful ignorance to be at war with such a boy! ° Let him know that you are hig friend, that you Ike him, that you wish him well, and you have at once an empire for good, moving itself and others on the way te righteousness.

Children, and adults too, often take cold as a result of over exposure to cold, getting feet wet, chilling after leaving a hot school, house, etc. Dress in the cold or wet weather so as to protect the body from chill and the feet from getting wet.

His opening methods are quite colculated. As regards his gorgeous official title, he mimics Poor Jo, and protests that "my name is agin me."
