Should we Battle Often ?

The question, "How often sbouId tbe
oody OF persons in health be bathed ?" is an
important one, and great difference of opinion
exists with regard to it, There is no donbt
however, that bathing, like all other good
trlhgs, may be abused, and the good We seek
from IT changed into evil. Many people have
been injured by too frequent bathing. As
rule' We regard once week as often enough

Sedentary habits, and once in two wceks for
those who are engaged in more active indoor
pursuits For those who are at work in ,hc

SAM HoCSrON'S Love. The most singular
thlng IN the life of Sam Houston, and one
never hitherto explained, was his abandon
ment of the GOvernorship Of Tennessee only
three days after marrying young wife. He
became voluntary exile among the Indians
"l the plains tor years thereafter, was made a
great chief, and only reappeared in public life
when Texas wa struggling for Independence.
The Galveston Ne,cs lifts the vel. from this Sc.
cret chamber OF HouStou's heart by the follow.
ing strange narration:
w hat We know about this matter ia so
honorable to him that We shall. for the ir,t
time, put II in print. We may premise that
our information was indirectly derived from
one now deceased, who, during her life, had a
right tn know what caused this strange episode
10 the life OF great man. Governor Hous-
ton hrSt tride was Tennessee bride of sur
passing beauty and considerable social stand
ing. She was; it not the afianced bride. at
least the eetheart OF a neighboring gentle
man when Governor Houston sought her
hand. Her family being very ambitious, fore
Ell the match and she was married. After re
tirlng to her bridal chamber her department
was such as to c,use him to suspect she did
not love him that while her hand was his.
her heart was anothers. She confessed the
truth when interrOgated, and while prom
l>ing hdelity and wifely duty, declared herself
unable to love him. He at once retired from
the house, leaving his bride as pure and snot-
less as ever. He then resigned his position
and went among the Cnnranches. In due
