There Is great change from the aus
terity of former times regarding the
proper diet for human beings during the
summer months. H is now generally
recognized that food during this period
Of lassitudc should be nouri,hing in the
highest degree. and. second. should be
composed In some measure Of the fruits
and vegetables Of the season. Ii has
been discovered that the body needs not
only substantial aliment of bread and
meat, but also that II needs food which
is sometimes characterized as them
waicry things" II il the season of the
year when water IL most felt to bo
blessing, to cool the air, 10 sustain veg
citation. lave the body and to partake of.
The great cooling process Of cvapora-
tion all depends upon good supply Of
fluids in the body, and " watery things"
20 to supply that need The great dan
ger Of vegetables and fruits i that de-
cay may faint them, or too great age
render them tough and insoluble, IN
which ease they become a poisonous Oh
struction to the digestive system, rather
than food.
Complaints Of digestion in summer
arise from two causes The person has
been exposed 10 draft of mir, which
has closed the pores Of the skin and
turned all the waste matter Of the body
(large portions Of which normally cs-
cape in unconscious perspiration) back
into the central sewer Of the system, or
else the bowels have become clogged
with excess of food or with something
in decay or indigestible. In either case,
the digestive system Immediately de-
lugcs itself with secrctions in order to
wash away the offending matter. This
diarrhea, as it Is called, SO far from be-
ing checked, should often be encour-
aged until'the occasion for II Is remoy-
ed. Due attention to the simple modes
of treatment suggested by this explana-
ton might save long periods Of "run-
ming down. which adults suffer AT this
season, and the lives Of many children
who annually die. Our medical socie-
ties could not do a better thing than %
print upon card plain directions for
the care and treatment OF children 80
attacked, for distribution among the
poorer classes. Perhaps il Is unneccssa-
ry so long as they nave the city physi-
elan TO call upon.
Some Of our contemporaries raise 4
clamor against ice-watcr, but we rarely

sufficient guard against immoderaie

attack upon the Turkish forces In front Of
Plevna, on the ath, and succeeded In driy-
ing them from their positions. The Turks
subsequently rallied and recaptured all
their lost ground, infiicting great punish
ment upon their opponents. The fight lasted
two days. The Russian losses are estimated
at some 5000 killed and 10000 wounded.
The Turkish losses were comparatively
small, on account Of their occupying in

VANCOUVER MISSION CLAIM,

The House of Representatives hav'
passed bill directing the issue of pat
ent to the Catholic Mission for 640 acres
of land embracing the town and CARR
son at Vancouver. w. L. We find il
the telegraph of the proceedings of the
House on the Goth the following:
The passage Of the bill directing the
issue of patent to Mission St. James
Vancouver, was preceded by very
So rted debate between Delegate Jacobs
and Buckner of Missouri, chairman of
the committee reporting the bill. JAG
obs, after showing that the Land De-
partment and Attorney-General have re-
peatedly decided against the claim, in
formed the House that it covered the
whole town of Vancouver and the mill
tary reservation, estimated to be worth
81 100000. lie therefore argued that
all parties should be left to fight out
their contest in the courts.
Buckner rejoined that the govern
mcnt had given missions of other relig-
ious denominations patents for 640 acres
each, aud argued that the issuance Of a
patent in this case would facilitate a ] u.
dicial settlement of the controversy
without injury to either party. as the
bill reserved all adverse rights and ex-
pressly provides that in the event of the
courts confirming the title to the Cath
Ollie Church the United States may re-
move all government property. Jacobs
then showed that tie effect Of the bill
would be Immediately to compel the cit
ize nsof Vancouver to pay rent to the
mission but despite his strenuous OPP
position the House passed the bill by
vote Of two to one. All the Pacific
coast members present voted in the
affirmative.
The claim of this mission to the land
in question is founded upon the general
grant Of go acres Of land made by Con-
gross in the Organic act of Washington
Territory, to each mission which had
been established among the Indians
prior to the passage of that act. The
claim to the Lapwai Mission lands now
held by Langford is founded upon the
same law. It would seem the present
House of Representatives is ready to en-
lorse the validity of this class of claims,
decisions of the Land
Department and opinions of Attorney.
Generals.
