DRY EARTH SYSTEMI
For the Sewage Of Towns, Factories.
Hospitals, Prisons, Hotels and
Private Houses.

A MPLE experience has shown the Dry Earth
N System to be more efficient in preventing foul
smells, and far less costly in construction and re-
pairs than the Water Closet System and that it Is
in all respects entirely satisfactory, whether for the
SICK Room or for constant use.
The Earth Closet offers to all, in town and coun
try every benefit possessed by the Water Closet. at
far less cost with the additional advantages that 1t
is portable, and be moved to the bedside In the
sickroom.
1t promises more in immunity from Offensive
odors, from infection in disease, and In the saving
of fertilizers than has ever been accomplished by
a single invention.
In the COMMODE the apparatus and earth res
ervoir are selfcontaned, and q movable pail takes
the place of the vault.
| For use in Bed Rooms, Hospital Wards, Infirm-
aries, &C. the Commode Is invaluable. II u entire
IN free from those faint depressing odors, common
10 portable tcdter closets and night stools and through
its admission of the greatest mseries Of human
life the foul smells of the sick room, and one Of the
most frequent means of communicating infection,
may be entirely prevented:

WALKING EREcT.-Walking erectly not only
adds to the manlness Of appearance, but devel-
opes the chest and promotes the general health
in high degree, because the lungs, being reIiev-
ed of the pressure made by having the head
downward and bending the chest 10, admit the
air freely and fully down to their very bottom
If an effort Of the mind is made to throw the shou-
der back feeling of tiredness and awkwardnessis
soon experienced or il is forgotten. The use Of
braces to hold up the body is necessarily perni-
cious, for there can be no braces which do not
press upon some part Of the person more than is
quite natural, hence it cannot fail 10 impede IT,
juriously the circulation Of that part. But we're
there none of these objections, the brace would
adapt itself to the bodily position, like hat, or
new garment. and would cease to be brace.
To seek to maintain an erect position, or to
recover it when lost, in a manner which is at
once natural, easy and efficient it is only Deces-
sary to walk habiiually with the eyes Fixed on an
object ahead, little higher than your own, to
the eve Of house, the top Of a mans hat, or
simply keep your chin little above the horizon
tai line, or it will answer 70 walk with your hands
behind you if either Of these things is done the
necessary easy and legitimate effect is to relieve
the chest from pressure. the air gets in more
easily, develops il more fully. and permeates she
lungs more extensively. causing a more puri6ca-
ton of the blood imparting higher health, more
color 10 the cheek and compelling throwing out
Of the toes. To derive the highest benefit from
walking. hold up the head. keep the mouth shHt
and walk briskly.

STURGEON AS A WINE DRINKER.-At a recent
meeting of Baptist ministers In England, to con-
slider the subject of total abstinence, Mr.. Spur

ly egotistical, and say what is my position here.

two years ago he was an ayowed teetotelar some
