IMPoRTANcE or BArHINa.--W Water is the
gift Of God 70 use it properly belongs 10 the
wisdom Of man. To ascertain that d world il
without water, is to know that II is uninhab-
liable. It might have all other elements Of
an earthly paradise, but without that they
would be as useless as an extinguislsed SUM-,
and man truly finds that e Blessings brighten
as they take their flight Z when he ii depriv-
ed Of a fluid which has the precedence Of
food, or when there is a drought of unusual
severity. The ancients worshipped the sea or
peopled it with imaginary gods, and they read
good and bad omens in storm and shower,
many OF the fctions and tables Of the present
day being but the remnants of superstitions
handed down to us from the traditions Of ex-
tinct peoples.
The use of water for washing and bathing
the body, while secondary in value to its ne
cessity as beverage, has an Importance
which was not discovered by civilization, for
the instinct of animals leads them to the
water with that purpose in view, and the neg
lect of the baths is perhaps mere prevalent in
Christian countries than in heather. 1t is on
ly in cities, running over with virtue and in
telligence, that we find no proper arrange
ments for public bathing, and where police
men are put on guard to arrest those who,
driven by impulse or necessity, rush to the
only water within their reach. The Romans
set a better example. Sixteen hundred years
ago Diocetian built baths for the people
large enough to accommodate 1000 persons
at the same time, and the ruins of the baths
of Baracalla, Titus and others, still to be
seen at Rome, show that " cleanliness, +"
which John Wesley said was Z" next to God
liness," was in far higher reputc before
Goodness was known than afterward.
