What Girls should Drink.

DIR. Dio Lewis, in his book, ''Our
Girls" syas
am astonished that young woman
who is ambitious of a clear, fine skin
should drink tea. 1t is great enemy to
fair compilations. Wine, coffee and CO
Goa may be used without tinging the skin
but as soon as tea-drinking becomes a
regular habit, the eye of the discriminat
ing observer detects it in the skin. Tea
compromises the complexion, probably,
by deranging the liver. Weak tea or
coffee may be used occasionally in moder-
ate quantity, without harm-and those
who live much in the open air, and are
occupied with hard work, may drink Ell
ther, in considerable quantities, without
Noticeable harm-but advise all young
women who would preserve a soft, clear
skin and quiet nerves, to avoid all drinks
but cold water. 1t is an excellent prac-
tice to drink one or two glasses of coldwater
on lying down at night and on rising in
the morning. If you have good teeth
and can help the food into your stomach
without using any fluid, except the saliva,
it will, in the long run, contribute much
to your health.

VALUE OF SUNDAY FOR REsT.-The
value OF Sunday rest in the case of ami
mails is illustrated by a statement of Mr..
Bianconi, the great Irish car proprietor,
at meeting of the British Association
for the Advancement of Science. He
said that he found by experience that he
could better work horse eight mics a
day for six days in the week thea six
miles day for seven days week. By
not working on Sunday he effected a
saving of twelve per cent. Mr.. Bian-
coni's opinion on this point is Of the
highest authority; for although the
extension of railways in the land has
thrown thirty-seven of his vehicles cut of
employ, which daily ran 2, 446 miles, still
he has over nine hundred horses, working
sixty-seven conveyances, which daily run
4, pa miles. 1t is also founded on the
result of forty-three years experience.

There IS an old proverb which says, = Ex-
perience is the safest guide" To this guide
the sick and ailing naturally turn when
casting about for he means of relief. They
inquire what a medicine has done for 9TH
ers, before they adopt it themselves. OF all
the remedies and preventives in use, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters meets the test most
triumphantly, and hence its immense popu-
larity and vast sales. The sufferer from in
digestion is sure to find some one among his
friends who has been cured of that ailment
by the famous vegetable stomachic. The
victim of fever and ague, liver complaint,
constipation, nervous prostration, or gener-
al debility, has only to make inquiry in the
the neighborhood where he resides in order
to discover what this standard restorative
has effected in cases similar to his own. In
the published testimony to its merits he will
find volume of proof of its its sanitary
properties, which it is impossible for his
common sense to resist He tries it, and the
effect it produces on his system adds anoth-
er to the host of witnesses in its favor
Thus, its reputation, founded on facts, not
assertions, continually grows and spreads.
Charla:ans and imposters, some of them
mere local tricksters, and others who take
somewhat wider range, attempt to thrust
into the hands and down the throats of in
valids, their haphazard connections, as sub
stitutes for the tonic which for so many
years has been a medicinal staple through
out the United States, Spanish America,
Canada, and the West Indies, but only sue
coed to a very limited extent. In this rea-
soning age, the people having ascertained
what is really deserving of their confidence,
decline running after strange gods"
