It is b.y the acmoß of the sbin that the body is enabled mai&tßfiE. its normal tern-j pwraturc. The body's temperature in i health is about 93° t~n all climates, both at'restarad during exercise. The warmth is made by the chemical changes in the body kept up by .the foods and liquids we take (i.e. the fuel). To maintain the normal temperature, ifc is the function of the skin to cljse its pores when the heat must be kept in, and to open them for evaporation, or the cooling process, when the body is becoming too warm. Hence, the first and most important points for consideration are—1. The clothing must not interfere with the action of tlio skin; the skin must ac! freely and naturally, or there is danger to health. 2. To prevent interference with the action ot' the skin, clothing nu.-t be porous, otherwise poisonous matters that should be thrown oli:'readily by the skin are retained in the body, which, becoming unhealthy., is most liable to insidious diseases. 3. Clothing must be porous also in order that perspiration may escape as vapour., and that it may dry more quickly.

It; is evident that clothing must bo a good non-conductor-of heat.; if otherwise, the action of the skin will be -interfered with by outer conditions of cold and heat. Naturally,, the first question is: What is the best non-condu -tor ol' heat for clothing ? The answer is: Air is the best nonconductor of heat. It is nearly 100 times a better non-conduotor of :heat .than any fibre. It is therefore that the best clothing is that which contains a due amount of AIR in its meshes. The-ques-tion ot fibre, whether wool, cotton, silk, or linen, is of little importance with regard to health compared with the absolute necessity of the presence of air in the interstices of clothing. The clothing to be healthy must enmesh and if this principle bn carefully earned out, the causes of colds and illness will be very greatly reduced. It is easily washed ;and does mot shrink. It is light and cornfo-rtable to wear and does not irritate the most sensitive skni. It is very durable.
