One of the ablest medical journals in
England opposes the prolonged use of
any kind Of mineral water, in health or
disease, as of doubtful efficacy, aud,
generally, directly, prejudicial-magne-
sia in large quantities being objection
able, as are also lime salts. To these
impurities in water it attributes those
terrible maladies, goitre aud cretinism-
at least, the facts observed are believed
to render this inference extremely prob
able. In confirmation Of this view, the
fact is cited that in the Durham Jail,
when the goitre appeared, affecting a
large proportion Of the convicts, the
spring water with which they were sup
piled was analysed, and found to con-
tain seventy-seven grains Of lime and
magnesia salts per gallon. On substi-
tuting for this water eontsining eigh.
teen grains Of these salts, it vas found
that the old cases rapidly improved,
while no new cases made their appear
snce. Itiss curious fact that in Ire
land, on the Waterford side Of the SUR,
where sandstoneS and states prevail,
Roitre and cretenism are almost IN
known, while on the Kilkenny side,
where lipestones abound, gOitre is net
uncommon.

JOSIE MANsFIFLp,s LUCK.
An Erei';ss s,sss;,". sssss # n.,, ,no Monaco


Gambling He'll.
On the I'd Of February the gorgeous
gaming ssloous at Monaco we're filled
with most fashionable and elegant
crowd OF ladies and gentlemen. So
dense was the throng round the tables
that few Of those who we're standing
were able 10 participate in the game. A
lady, who was seated at the lower end o.
the principal roulette table, by the side
of the so-called end.crouper, attracted
the attention Of the bystanders by the
large piles OF gold pieces which she
staked on three or four numbers, and by
the invariable luck which crowned her
ventures. She was fat, beautiful wo-
man, with a prepossessing face, and she
played with nonchalenee and reckless
ness, as If the secret of Midas had
been hers. She won, aud won, and
won. Nothing but slight flush upon
her inely rounded, dimpled, and deli
cately complexioned cheeks indicated
that in the last forty minutes she had
won between three and four thousand
dollars. Behind her stood tall, foreign.
looking gentleman, evidently over forty
years of age, with heavy auburn mus.
tache. The beautiful woman was Just
about drawing to herself the two or three
hundred dollars which she had won
again, when young man, who had been
sitting by her left side, politely, but
firmly said to her, Pardon me, madame,
that belongs to mel" The lady turned
Indignantly toward him, and asked him
what he meant Simply that those
winnings are mine, he replied coldly.
The next moment the lady appealed to
the head croupier, calling upon him to
say whether she had not steadily and
exclusively played for the past heur the
numbers in question. The young man
sprang to his feet in the utmost agitation.
The lady started back in terror as he
bent his flashing eyes upon her, when the
middle-aged man behind her suddenly
seized the impetuous young stranger by
the collar of his coat, and, uttering saw.
age oath in foreign language, struck him
violent blow in the face. The assailed
party drew dirk.knife, and turned saw
agely upon his assailant. In second
all was uproar in the gorgeous gaming
hail. The gamblers and the croupiers
jumped up-the game was interrupted
angry voices, uttering oaths, resounded,
and suddenly two police officers elbowed
themselves through the crowd toward
the quarreling group. The two men
were arrested, the lady raked in what
she had won, and left the hall with a
scowl upon her pretty face.
Next morning the two gentlemen had
to appear before the police ceurt of Mo.
naco, where the elder, the asGailant,
gave his name as Raron Berny de Tolly,
and the younger as Herr Won Differor.
The Baron was ordered to pay nomi-
nal fine, and he, whom he had slapped
in the face, was honorably discharged.
The lady was Josie Mansfield, whose in
innate Baron de Tolly is now. She had
been with him at Monaco for three or
four weeks, when the untoward incident
occurred. On the following day the
two left for Nice,
