BATHING.-Avoid bathing within two hours
after meals, is the advice of the Royal Humane
Society of England, when exhausted by IA
tigue or from any other canse, or when the body
is cooling after Precipitation, and avoid bathing
altogether in the open air il, after being short
tiue in the water, there is a sense of chillin ess
with numbness of the hands aud feet. but battle
vile the body is warm, provided time is lost
in getting into the wafer. Avoid chilling the
body by sitting or standing undressed on the
banks or in boats, after having been in the water,
remaining too long in the water, but leave
the water Immediately there is the slightest
feeling of chiliness. The vigorous and strong
may battle early in the morning on empty
stomach, but the young and those who are weak
had better battle two three hours after meal;
the best time for such is from two to three
hours after breakfast. Those who are subject
to attacks of giddiness or faintness, aud who
suffer from palpitations and other sense of dis
comfort at the heart, should not battle without
first consulting their medical adviser.-New York

The New Bible.
st. Louis Republican,


We are glad tc notice that in the Pan
Presbyterian council, which recently closed
it's session at Philadelphia, Rev. DR.. Cham
bers read carefully prepared paper 10
favor OF the acceptance of the revised edi.
ton of the English Bible AS DIR. Cham
bers is prominent member of one of the
most powerful of ProtestaDts scots, and as
his review-in the New ork EUeniag Post
-of;the Dutch school of criticism as repre-
scented In The Bible for Learner" leaves
no doubt concerning his orthodoxy, his
recommendation is entitled to, and will
have. great weight, The reverned gentle
man expresses the belief that the sanctity
and authority of the Scriptures will not be
leEsened by corrections judged necessary
IN order TO bring out fully and fairly the
sense OF the original" and he has no hest
tatlon in declaring that, with all the admit
Ted excellence of the present authorized
version, its imperfectiens may be seen
Dy turning the pages of any even moder
afeiy critical commentary" Such being the
case there Is, 10 his opinion, only one path
TO follow: that Is, the correction Of what
ever needs correction. and the recognition
OF the new version by all those who desire
the Scriptures in their purity, He evidently
sees the folly, or something worse, of con-
ceding the soundness of cancellations pro-
posed by ascholars :of acknowledged orrho-
ooxy and ability, and yet refusing 10 allow
them to become popularized in an edition
designed for the masses of the people. As
q man OF sense as well as piety. he does
not wish 60 deprive the unlearned many of
Biblical knowledge which has long been 10
the possession of the learned few. If

sacred book, why should not that book

4 Political Ruu,or.

The latest political sensation is to the
effect that, if a majority of the the Repub-
lican electors are chosen the latter will.
cordiug to plan which has been formed,
vote for Gen. Grant in place of Garfield,
and thus place the third termer in the
white house III place of the present nom
lnee- The story goes even farther than
this, and states that if the election is very
close the cry of fraud will be raised, and
the electors on the Republican side will
meet aud declare Grant elected, who will
proceed to take his seat by force. There
is not much reliance to be placed in ell the
flying rumors oflthe campaign. but fore
warned is forearmed, and the Republican
managers may as well understand now as
any time that, If Gen. Hancock is fairly
elected, he nil be seated. even though TO-.
900 Grants stood in the way. The people
viii not be bamboozled this time, and the
desperate sehemers on the Republican
deswho are for rule or ruin, will be
summary dealt with. if the will of the
the people is attempted to be deied. It is
not The rank and file of the Republican
party who would sanction such high
handed outrage, but the desperate leaders
many of whom are unprincipled enough
to attempt anything to maintain their
hold on the government purse strings.
Once more, it is well enough to state that
whoever is lawfully elected president will
be seated. and the man or men, who seek
to defy the expressed will of the people,
will be quickly dealt with, and in such
manner as to leave no mistaken impress
sion. The fraud of 1876 cannot be repeat
ed in 1880.
