, more univerfally ; I am confident it
would prevent a multitude of difeafes,
and I know no greater luxury than the
comlfoi table fenfation which refults from
wearing it. It is a miflalpen nQtion that
it is too warm a clothing for the fuin

it. (it is the warm bath of perfpiration

which renders the fummer heats of fouth

evaporation, and evaporation, as is well
known, prodmces pofitive coU."
