We hope if may arrest his attention, and guide him to profitable musings on the risks to which he is exposed. No one can boast his enc fire immunity from danger, and consequent freedom from the necessity of precautions. These we shall give with plainness and brevity. They consist mainly in attention to clothing, exercise, and diet. No sudden, or, for length of time yet to come, any, diminutioh of the winter clothing should be attempted.

Even the use of coffee ] and tea must in many cases, be discontin- ued-the former especially, if the person be subject to palpitations of the heart, or diseases of the skin.-Journ0l ct HeoNh.
