The Prevention Of Sunstrokr.

The following hints for the proven
tion Of sungtroke are given by DR..
Edwin g. Mann, Of New York CITY, in
an article upon this subject in one Of
the medical journals: To avoid sun
stroke, exercise, in excessively hot
weather should be very moderate the
clothing should be thin and loose, and
an abundance Of cold water should be
drank Workmcn and soldiers should
understand that as soon As they cease
to perspire, while working or marching
in the hot sun, they are in danger Of
sunstroke, and they should Immediately
drink water freely and copiously TO
afford matter for cutaneous transpira-
tion, and also keep the skin and cloth
ing wet with water Impending sun.
stroke may often be warded off by thesa
simple measures. Besides the cessa-
ton OF perspiration, the pupils are apt
to be contracted, and there is fire.
quency Of mictuIition. II there is marked
exhaustion, with weak pulse. resulting
from the cold water application, we
should administer stimulants. The
free nse Of water, however both er-
ternally and internally, by those e1-
posed TO the direct rays Of the sun, is
the best prophylactic against sunstroke.
and laborcrs or soldiers, and others
who adopt this measure, washing their
hands and faces, as well as drinking
copiously Of water every time they come
within reach Of it, will generally enjoy
perfect immunity from sunstroke.
Straw hats should be worn, ventilated
at the top, and the crown of the hat
filled with green leaves or wet sponge.
1t is better to wear thin flannel shirts
in order not to check pcrspiration. We
may expose ourselves for long time in
the hot sun and work or sleep in
heated room and enjoy perfect i'm.
munity from sunstroke if We keep our
skin and clothing wet with water.

Rad News for Water Drinkers.

The age of the earth is placed 10y some
at five hundred millions Of years: and
still others, Of later time, among them
the Duke Of Argyll, place il at ten mil
lion years. None place it lower than
ten millions, knowing what processes
have been gone through Other planets
60 through the same process. The rea-
son that other planets differ so much
from the earth is that they are in a so
much earlier or later stage Of existence.
The earth must become old. Newton
surmised, although be could give no
reason for it, that the earth would at
one time lose all its water and become
perfectly dry. Since then il has been
found that Newton was correct.
As the earth keeps cooling it will be-
come porous and great cavities will be
formed in the interior which will take
IN the water. 1t is estimated that this
process is now in progress, so far that
the water diminishes at about the rate
ofthe thickness OF sheet Of writing pa
per each year. At this rate in 6, ,0OO, 900
years the water will have sunk a mile.
and IN l5,O0O,O00 years every trace Of
water will have disappeared from the
face Of the globe. The nitrogen and
oxygen in the atmosphere are also di-
minishing all the time. 1t is in an in
sppreciable degree, but the time will
come when the air will be so thin that
no creature we know could breathe il
and live; the time will come when the
world cannot support life. Tha. will be
the period Of old age and then will come
death - Prefesso,. Proctor.

found herself face to face with Gerard
Fay.
Her first impulse was TO turn back.
Her second, to bow stifIly. Her third, to
speak in tho most cordial manner i'm
aginable, which she accordingly did.
Gerard's salutation was by no means
30 unembarrassed, but instead of pass
ing on, AZ he might have easily done,
he continued to walk by her side, dis
coursing OF the weather, the scenery,
the last new novel, and growing more
and more desperate at Nelly's unmis-
taxable indifTerence-till, at last, he
frankly told Nelly the story Of his short
comings with regard to her, taking care
to color it slightly, and practicing
little arithmetic on it, in the way Of ad-
ditions and substractions, winding up
by asking Nelly to take him this time
for better or worse.
Whereupon Nelly, who listened to
the whole with perfect immobile
countenance, quietly asked: "Have
You finished, Mr.. Fay2"
"Yes," replied the gentleman, some
what doubtfully.
Very we'll, sir. have only to say
that / cannot marry a man do not love

spect, and could not respect the man who
