attacks of all conceivable malades Night and day

ences. No atmosphere is entirely pure, water ut
tery free from injurious particles while in many

principle is deficient dormant, against any of the
morbid influences which produce epidemic and other
diseasesP None whatever. There s safety save in
II tifcial reinforcement. Hoseters Stomach Btters

Robinson Crusoe,s Island To-Day.

All who have read the story of Rob-
inson Crusoe, will be glad to learn how
that island looks to-day. Prof. Agassiz
has recently visited it. He says The
Island of Juan Fernandez is more cele-
brated from DeFoes fiction than from
Selkirk's history. Fernandez discover
ed the island in 1853, and introduced
goats here. In I'LL an Indian was left
here, and subsisted on the goats three
years before he was taken off. In DC
tober, 1904, Scotch sailor, Alexander
Selkirk, was left here, and taken off in
1909, having lived here four years and
four months in absolute solitude, living
like his Indian predecessor, mostly on
goats flesh. He ftold his story to
DeFoe, and out of it grew Robinson
Crusoe."
The wild goats are still numerous
here, and tlocks of hundreds OF them
may be seen upon the mountains. The
island is about ten or twelve miles long
by four in breadth the shores mostly
precipitous, and the mountain ridges
5000 feet in height. The water around
the island is deep, and the whole ap-
pearance is as if there had once been an
ioiuhu Will III Splciluiu
chain upon it that suddenly the bot
tom had been knocked from under all
except this patch of ten miles by four,
and all but this patch had sunk into the
sea. Valleys and mountain spurs and
gentle slopes are all cut off by this pre-
cipitous edge, and there are but few
places on the island where you can eff
feet a landing. There are to-day
twelve persons, including several chill
dren, living on the island. They have
good poultry and vegetables, splendid
beef, and can got goats by climbing
after them. Other things they purchase
with the. proceeds of their beef, mill,
and poultry, for which they find mar
ket in passing ships, especially in Amer
lean whalers
We spent May-day in rambling or
the island and about its shores, cunning
fishing, herborizing, and collecting gen.
orally. Sharks, crabs, crayfsh, shrimps
mollusks of various sorts, star fish and
sea urchins of divers kinds, few in
sects, some humming birds, ETC., wer,
among the fruits of our labor. Th,
plants of the island bore general re
semblance to those of the continent fou
hundred miles to the eastward, whicl
surprised me, as both the prevailing
winds and ocean currents are opposed t.
any transmigration from the southern
part of the continent.

To Bathers.

The Humane Society of London has
issued the following advice to bathers
Avoid bathing within two hours after
a meal, or when exhausted from any
cause. Avoid bathing when the body
is cooling after perspiration, but bathe
when the body is warm, provided no
time is lost in getting into the water.
Avoid chilling the body after having
been in the water. Avoid remaining too
long in the water. Leave the water i'm
mediately, if there is the slightest feel
ing of chilliness. Avoid bathing alto
gether in the open air, If, after having
been short time in the water, there is a
sense of chilliness, with numbness of the
hands and feet. The vigorous and
strong may bathe early in the morning
ON an empty stomach the young and
weak had better bathe three hours after
a meal, after breakfast being the best
time. Those subject to attacks of gid
diness and faintness, and those who suf-
fer from palpitation and other diseases
of the heart, should not bathe without
first consulting their medical adviser.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1872-08-29
Wet and Dry Bathing.

If any one in these days will exercise
in the open air so that each day he will
perspire moderately, and if he will wear
thin undergarments, or none at all, and
sleep in a cold room, the functions of
the skin will suffer little or no impede
ment if water is withheld for months.
Indeed, bathing is not the only way in
which its healthful action can be main
tanned by those living under the condi-
tions at present existing. Dry friction
over the whole surface of the body, once
day, or once in two days, is often of
more service than the application of
water. The reply of the centenarian to
the inquiry to what habit of life he at
tributed his good health and extreme
longevity, that he believed it due to
rubbing himself all over with a cob
every night" is significant of an i'm
portant truth. If invalids and persons
of low vitality would use dry friction
and DR.. Franklins "air bath" every
day for considerable period, we are
confident they would often be greatly
benefited. Cleanliness is next to godli-
ness, no doubt and a proper and ju-
| dicious use of water is to be commend
ed; but human beings are not amphib-
ious. Nature indicates that the func-
tions of the skin should be kept in order
mainly by muscular exercise, by excl
ting natural perspiration by labor
and, delicious as is the bath, and health
full, under proper regulation, it is nc
substitute for that exercise of the body
without which all the functions become
abnormal.-Dr. Nichols Freside Science

THE HEATIIEN CHINEE." THE San
Francisco Bulletin says GA manufac-
turer of bird cages and other ware in
the city, short time since, thought to
enlarge his revenue by substituting
Chinese cheap labor for the white work.
men he had in his employ. The Mon
gols did well enough, at 81 day, for a
short time, until they mastered the bus
mess, when the whole party resigned
and set up for themselves, and are now
bearing" the bird cage market at a
fearful rate. The author of this en-
largement of their sphere of enterprise
is-prone to believe that "we are ruined
by Chinese cheap labor"

A SUMMER MORNING.

The storm is oor; calm as an angels breast .
Is the untroubled lake while far on high
Soft snowy cloudets rest in the pure sky,
Like spirits blest.
The very air around seems fraught with bliss
Music is singing from yon green retreat;
The early zephyr is as pure and sweet
As childhoods kiss.
Forget thy little griefs, o heart Of mine
Glad birds give thanks to Him in tuneful lays;
While myriad creatures breathe their grateful praise
Oh mngle thine.

CoNTENTED.-A captain of whale
ship, in alluding to the severe climate
and various privations suffered by the
inhabitants of Spitzbergen, told one of
them that he sincerely pitied the miser-
able life to which he was condemned.
Miserablew exclaimed the philoso-
phic savage. "I have always had a
fish-bone through my nose and plenty
of train-oil to drink what more could
possibly desire Z"

AGRICULTURAL,

SowfNG GRASS SEED.-Prof. Charles
l.. Flint makes the following assertions,
which the same he would dare to main
tain
First That early Fall seeding, with
out grain, should be adopted in practice
in preference to seeding in Spring.
Second: That, as a general rule, it is
poor economy to take any grain crop
either with or immediately preceding
the seeding down to grass. That the
grass being the ultimate and paying
crop, it is bad practice to reduce the land
by the draft which grain crop makes
upon it. u. .a
Third: That wherever from any local
reason it becomes desirable to take
crop of spring grain, it is more econom-
ical to SOW the grain alone in the spring,
and to plow up the stubble and sow the
grass seed alone in the early fall.
Fourth That in cases where it seems
| desirable to SOW grass seed in spring, it
is better to SOW it alone and let it take
its chance, without compelling it to
struggle for existence under the disad-
vantages of grain or any other crop.
| Fifth That in seeding down in August
or early in September we are following
nature as to time, and that, unless the
ground is already rich and in high con-
dition, it is necessary to give the seed
the benefit of an application of manure
on or near the surface to which the seed
is applied.
Sixth That in the selection of seed
for moving lots and hay, we should Sc
lect varieties to mix that blossom at OF
nearly at the same time, and not mix
very early and very late varieties to-
gether.

gro BE WEAK IS MISERABLE"
Never was truer sentence than this-sup-
posed to be wrung from the Arch-fiend in his
impotence and agony. Every victim of ner-
vous debility, or of that depressing languor
which is one of the accomplishments of dys-
pepsia and bliousness, can testify to the
misery of mind and body which they involve.
The motive power of the system is partially
parayzed the mind is haunted by anxiety
and fear and the sufferer is as incapable of
applying himself encrgstically to any kind of
business as if he were under the benumbing
influence of catalepsy. This terrible mental
and physical condition need not, however, be
endured for forty-eight hours by any human
being. PLANTATION BITTERs is an absolute
