WHAT IS A COLD BATH?

The season of the year, says the Lancet,
when very many people who have expert
enced pleasure and advantage from daily
cold bath have to discontinue it has come.
Months will elapse before the return of
genial weather will allow of their indul-
gence in what may be termed mans natu-
raj stimulant. Among the young and
robust there are large number who are
able to battle even in. the depths of winter.
The advantage Of SO doing is, however, I'M
questionable But let it be once well un.
derstood what cold bath really is, and
the course by which we can avoid Scylla
and Charybdis will be obvious. A cold
bath is not necessarily a bath in water of
the temperature of the atmosphere. A
bath is truly and really cold when it pro-
duces certain physiological effects slight
momentary shock, followed by pleasant
and lasting reaction. These effects are,
for the majority of people, most pleasantly
obtained by bathing in water about
thirty-five degrees to forty degrees below
the temperature Of the body = the
usual temperature of unheated water
in June and July. Bearing this in mind,
we can enjoy our physiological "cold :"
bath as safely and pleasantly at Christmas
as at midsummer, and there is no necessity
for the most timid or weakly to disoon-
tinue his morning tub because the summer
weather is over. When the water sinks
below temperature of sixty degrees, let
it be heated to that point and then used,
and we shall still have our "cold bath,
though OF heated water. The daily stim-
ulant effect of such bath is so beneficial
to the great majority of persons, and is of
such marked service in maintaining health,
that it is very important to have it widely
known that cold bath may be taken all
the year round, provided cold is not mis-
taken to mean cat the temperature of the
outer air" To heat our bath during the
winter months is often thought to be un-
manly, wilhelm reality it is truly scientific;
and to battle in unheated water all the
year round, whatever the temperature of
that water may be, is to prove ones self an
ignorant slave of outward circumstances.

THE CHINESE IN BROOKLYN.

The Brooklyn authorities are battling
with Chinese question of their own, and
it is interesting to observe how unerringly
the local politicians take position against
the Monaghan as soon as the question
comes to the surface. The heather Chinee
has been quietly working his way into
monopoly of the washing business in
Brooklyn, and now the City Council pro-
poses to put discriminating license upon
him in order to check his advances. This
plan may be tried, bnt it will certainly not
have the desired effect. In California every
imaginable form OF legislative handicap has

VIE CoRoNER's INQUEST.

The Democratic meeting in New York
the other day was very much in the line
of q coroner's inquest Mr.. Abram S.
Hewitt and other witnesses who were
present undertook to tell what they knew
concerning fhe death of the Democratic
! party, and having made remarks which
'howed their ignorance of the facts or their
uctance to tell the truth, they proposed
organization. The gist of the ar
is was that the Democratic party
beaten because it had no princi-
convictions, and the obvious rem.
posed was to supply it with
W set of both. It is to be feared,
nos,sver, that principles and convictions
cannot be instilled into decaying party
after the manner of hypodermic injections.
The Democracy has been trying that for a
good many years cow, and with wholly
unsatisfactory results It is precisely be-
cause it has ceased to have any principles
or convictions Of its own that it always
fails to carry the country It has been
made too apparent that it has no stable
beliefs in hard money, or free trade, or any
of the things it once held to, for the
country to accept any new declarations of
its views as sincere. If its course during
the past twenty years demonstrates any,
thing, it is the fact that the party has out
f. af,l, L IL d. !
political elements which under some form
viii always be found in opposition to the
-eiements constituting the Republican
party but under the present form those ell
ements have ceased to be capableof effective
expression. It may be true that in New
York the Tammany Hall organization has
destroyed the Democracy, but even if all
the Tammany Hall elements were dis.
persed there would be no guarantee against
heir reunion in some equally formidable
ape. The Democracy is paralyzed by Ig.
lDce at the bottom and Demsgcgism
and Dishonesty at the top. The denagog-
ism has led it to be all things to all men,
and its ignorance has caused sufficiently
large vote to adhere to it, to stimulate its
,iemagogism. 1t cannot be regenerated by
resolutions. A party must have aims and
genuine beliefs of some rational kind be-
fore It can win success. The Democracy
mas for nearly generation had no higher
aim than the offices. Nor is it from the.
leaders who Endorsed the Morey forgery,
;bat most infamous spawn of factional cor
,ption the country has ever been discred-
W, that we can expect the genius of
reto.sis AID the stimulus necessary to reor-
ganizstlon. Other men than the Hewitts
and the Barnums are needed for that work,
I'd as vet they have not appeared.

A NEGRO PREACHERS EFFIGY. phase
OF hero worship has cropped out among
the negroes OF certain portion of Lee
county which is singular. Lewis Barber,
colored preacher of the Baptist denomi-
nation, had in his charge a membership
numbering perhaps 5000, making up his
four churches. He was typical specimen
of the negro clergy, and welded an almost
absolute power over his large congregation.
Last summer the preacher died, and his
followers refused to be comforted. He
was honored with burial rites beyond pre-
cedent, and such funeral was indeed
seldom seen." The deeds and memory
left by the good pastor were not sufficient
for his members, and not comforted with
these they have set up sort of craven
image, SO to speak, of Barber, which is
placed above the pulpit of his principal
church. The image itself is work of the
crudest art, made of white and black cot
ton cloth, stuffed with straw and painted
with charcoal. To an unbiased critic it
looks more like a scarecrow set up to
brighten hawks than anything else, but
devout member informed the writer it was
a very striking likeness of the deceased.
We marveled somewhat at the strange thing
with another brother of this church, and
asked him its object. He gave me to I'M
derstand it was remembrancer of the
beloved deceased, and said, although
Brudder Barber is gone, we still has de
shapes of him wild US. u Americas (Ga. J,

TIE Noa-EssBNrIALs OF PATH.

The Scotch divines are at present dis
cussing a very fine point, namely, the
amount of insincerltY that is legitimate in
subscribing assent to their confession of
faith. 1t appears that on assuming their
offices they declare publicly that they
81 sincerely own and believe" the "whole
all doctrines, tenets and opinions whatso-
ever contrary to or inconsistent with the
said doctrine" 1t might be thought that
this formed wall high enough and thick
enough to keep out the boldest hereto, but
several of the Edinburgh divinity Profes-
sors seem to have got a whole procession of
coaches. and.six through it the other day
with perfect ease According to these gen.
tlemen the "whole" doctrine merely means
good deal of the doctrine, the remainder,
in short, after deducting what they call
the "non. essentials Asked what are the
"non- essentials" they tell US that they
are those doctrines which do not form
necessary part of the system" Asked
what the system is, they inform US that
it is what each subscriber regards iu his
own mind as the system; and if one thinks
the system to be one thing, and the other
thinks it to be something entirely different,
the divinity Professor assures US that it is
of no consequence, for who is authorit-
ative.y to Judge between those two men,
and say to the one, You are right, and to
the other, You are wrong?'" After this
it was scarcely necessary to express dis
belief "that every minister who was not
ultra-orthodox was going about with a
conscience burdened and troubled with a
sense of broken VOW" Why should he,
If his VOW means whatever and however
little he chooses to regard it as meaning !?
Only we should advise the divinity Pro-
fessors not to interpret any other of their
contracts in this way, as the other party
might not always be satisfied to accept

SENATOR SARGENT AND TIE MoRMoNs

Some of the Utah Gentiles are attacking
ex-senator Sargent quite bitterly because
they say he caused TO be struck out of an
anti Mormon bill in Congress, provision
enabling plural wives to sue for divorce,
and for division of the property of their
husbands. Senator Sargent has written
letter to the Salt Lake Tribune, in which
he defends himself on the ground that
"polygamy is religious institution, and
"that he has never known persecution to
"be effective against religion" The
Tribune replies sit is very obvious that
" the answer to this is that plural mar
"riages are not necessary part of the
" Mormon religion; and if they were, it
s. would be a faith founded upon lust and
" the violation of the laws of all civilized
"nations. We do not think this at all an
" obvious answer to Mr.. Sargent, nor do
we regard it as valid answer Mr.. Sar-
gent is perfectly right in his conclusion
that persecution can never be effective
against religion, and in order to show that
the suppression of polygamy by force with
out regard to its religious implications was
necessary to the maintenance of civiliza-
tion-which is what would have to be de.
monstrated in order to justly such a
policy good many things would have to
be proved which thus far rest only upon
naked assertion.
