THE WEATHER,

THE WEATHER,
which is the most important matter about
New York, Just now, has moderated a
little, and it is enee more possible to sleep.
Nevertheless, it is yet too hot for either
comfort or health. The heated term has
been the most terrible ever known, and has
swelled the mortuary list to degree that
is absolutely frightful. Children have
perished by the thousands, and almost an
equally large number Of adults have sue
cumbed to the more than torrid heat. One
woman in Baxter street has assisted in pre-
pairing one hundred and thirty-four child
ren for burial. And right here let me say
that there has scarcely been an instance OF
death from among the ranks Of the tenn
perate. The men who have avoided the
use of alcoholic drinks, when sunstruck,
almost invariably recovered, and when
recovered were as good as new. But when
ii whisky or beer drinker went down it was
generally down for good, and it is a matter
Of fact that the drinking classes were an
hundred fold more liable to be struck than
the temperate. The temperance people
can make use Of this as they may, but all
the city physicians vouch for its truth.

Double Danger AYerted.

The inhabitant of a nlalaTious reigOn is
threatened by a double danger. He is not
only compelled to breathe miasma, but to
s1UdIIOlO it. since 1t infects not only the atmos-
phere, but the water. The aerial poison
threatens his system through the lungs and
pores the liquid through the stomach
Against this double peril there Is but one pro-
lection, and that is to invigorate the entire
body through the digestive and secretive Or
gans. Tonics usually fail to accomplish
this -Hostetter's Stomach Bitters never. In
