THIRST
ASSUAGED BY BATHING,---Nearly a hun-
dred yeats ago, Dr. Lind suggested to Captain Kennedy
that thirs,t
be quenched at sea by dipping the
clothing into
.salt-water and- putting it on without
wringing. Subsequently, the captain, on being • cast
away, had an opportunity of ,making the experiment,
With great difficulty he succeeded in persuading a part
of the men to follow his example, and they all survived;
while the men Who refuied and drank salt-water became
delirious - and died. In addition to Putting on the
clothelwhile wet, night: and morning, they may be
wetted while on, two or three times during the day.

we uniformly found that the violent drought went off,
and the parched tongue was cured in a few minutes after
bathing and washing Our clothes, while we foancl•°ur"
selves as much refreshed as if we had reeeired sotne
actuknourishment." The bare ppssibility of the 'truth
of the statement makes it a humanity for any paper to
give it a wide publicity, since there are not many
readers in a hundred who may not go to sea 1144 get
