Drinking While wording.

American Agricultural.
Men in health perspire freely when
vigorously at work on warm days.
Very heavy sweating may sometimes
arise from weakness; u dry skin M V
indicate disorder Evaporation from
the surface carries off heat and keeps
the body cool. A large supply of
drinking water is required for the
warm haying and harvest days, but
much less than is commonly supposed.
Half pint of water, slipped slowly,
will assuage thirst much more effect
lively than quart gulped down. A
different temperature in two adjacent
portions of the body produces con-
gestion. A pint of cold fluid of any
kind thrown into the stomach may re-
suit in more or less congestion; serious
illness, and not unfrequently deaths,
arise from this cause. If ice cold wa
ter is taken at any time, it should be
taken SO slowly that the stomach can
warm each gill before taking another,
AS to the kinds of drink, the positive
teachings of medical science, and ex-
perience, indicate that pure water is
by far the best fluid for assuaging thirst
and supplying the wants of the system.
Beers, alcs, sweetened drinks, or any
fluid that contains material that must
be digested, are tax upon the stomach
and tend to disorder the system. If
taken at all it should be only with 9TH
er food. Pure water is absorbed at
once into the blood, and is carried di-
rectly to those parts of the body where
it is needed. If the water is bad, it
may usually be corrected by the adj
dition of a little ginger extract; too
much of this produces constipation; but
on this account it may be used more
freely in looseness of the bowels. All
alcoholic drinks are unhealthful for one
in active exercise. They stimulate in-
creased eifort-effort beyond ones ma
tural strength-and unnatural exhaust
ion inevitably follows. Just so far as
one raises himself above normal con-
dition by alcoholic stimulants, Just so
far below this condition will he
surely sink a few hours after, and the
elevating and depressing operation
wears upon and disorganizes the ma
chinery of the body.

Chicago Express.
John w. Carson, clerk of the COM
mittee of ways and means, has made
an investigation which shows that over
S36, 100000 of United States notes now
lie idle in the national treasury, awaiting
the redemption and retirement of that
amount OF national bank note currency.
During the months of May, June and
July, SS,500,000 of currency was re-
tired, and the contraction process is
steadily going on. The power and dis
position of the banks to contract the
currency at this rapid rate is good
grounds for the Wall street prediction
of an early panic; and the fact that the
bankers announced that among the
leading topics to be discussed at their
Sarotoga meeting was the necessity of
q national bankrupt law, shows that
they are preparing to haul in their in
ilation lines soon. As Gen. Weaver S
father was careful not to kill the bees,
but to smoke them out, and save them
to make another crop of honey, so the
bankers do not like to kill off the enter
prising workers who have filed the
hives of industry with wealth for the
bankers, but aim to smoke them out
through contraction of money and
values, and then set them ur in busi-
ness again in a new national bankrupt
hive.

AlcnlsOn champion, Aug. ~.
Topeka is in the throcs of a terrible
excitement over the saloon question.
The state fair and soldiers reunion,
next month, will attract vast crowd,
and many Of the citizens are fearful
that the veterans will indulge in pro.
miscuous drinking if the saloons are
kept open. Numerous meetings have
been held, and committees appointed
to wait on the city authorities to de-
mand n closing of the saloons during
fair week. Some excited people threat
cncd to raise mob and attack the 81.
looms if the city authorities did not act
promptly. But the cooler men among
them pointed out the fact that people
who were demanding the enforcement
of law could not afford to be law-break-
rrS themselves. Gov st. John adj
dressed u meeting on Monday night.
and sensihly declared against all law
lessness. They could not afford he
said, to violate one law in trying to
enforce another.
The governors counsel was prudent
and wise. The saloons ought to be
closed, but they should he closed by lc-
cal action, and not by lawlcSsncSs.
We think the dangers apprehcndcd
from the soldiers gathering are cXag-
gcrated. The veterans are older than
they were twenty years ago. Age and
experience have toned down the hot
blood of youth, and very few of them
are likely to drink, even if all the "sca
foam establishments in Topeka were
open. Drunkenness may be noticeable
in the crowd at the capital during the
reunion, if the saloons are allowed to
keep open, but ii will not be among
the soldiers present. Disciplined by
hard experience, proud of their service
in behalf of their country, trained to
respect lawful authority, and sobcrcd
by the hardships they have uncomplain-
ingly borne and the dangers they have
bravcd, the men who 'wore the blue"
will neither be lawless rioters. as some
crank from Wyandotte suggests, nor
bowling inebriates, as some of the good
people of Topeka appear to fear.
We venture the prediction that,
among the thousands gathered at To-
pcka during fair week, the veteran sol
diers Of the union will be conspicuous
for their orderly conduct, their sobricty
and dccorum. They may sing the old
camp songs with enthusiasm, and greet
each other with elusive demonstra-
tions, and revive something of the old
time camp and march iolity and hur-
raining and noise, but nobody in Topc-
ka need fear that they "lill the flowing
bowl too often, or drink "stonc
blind When johnny came march
ing home he was not the rolicking
boy who marched away in the bright
new uniform, gay, happy and carclcSsS
of consequences. He found "thc Girl
he left behind him." and has made
home for her, and children or grand
cluster about his knees. If he
goes to Topeka, it wilnot be toindulge
in showing drunk but to see once
more the dear old comrades of camp
and bivouac and battlefield, and re-

away time when war drums throbbcd

THE DREAMER.

All day the white haired woman sits
Beside the open door and knits
No living thing her dim eye sees,
As busy with old memories
She dreams her dreams Of what has been,
And knits her oldtime fancies in.
She thinks Of those who long ago
Went out across the threshold low;
How many times her listening car
Had thought familiar footsteps near,
And when she started up to find
dead leaf rustling in the wind.
But never as Of those who lie
Beneath the wide and tender sky,
With folded hands on quiet breast
All wrapped about with peace and rest,
She thinks Of d en-. For her they tread
The green earth with her. None are dead
Though years have fallen like the leaves
About the graves where summer wcayes
Her grass-fringcd covcrlet, to keep
Safe hid from us the ones asleep,
She sees them all. Not grass nor mold
Can hide the ones she loved of old
She talks with them, When brownwingcd bee
Makes merry in the locust tree,
She thinks he comes and sits with her,
Whose voice was loves Interpreter.
y dreamer! Young again to day,
What matter If your hair is gray.
Sometimes she thinks that round her knee
Her children play in happy glcc,
And when they tired and sleepy grow,
She sings some song of long ago,
And on her loving mothers breast
She rocks her little ones to rest
o dreamer! knitting all the day
Your dreams in with your stitches gray,
Yours is n happy, happy heart
haunted world from ours apart
The years that turned your trcsses gray
Have given back your youth to-day.

LOHuou llllV9'
The Morgue is an admirable institu
ton, and has repeatedly rendered the
greatest services in bringing clews to
light for the detection of crimes. All
bodies recovered from the Seine, and
the bodies of all persons who have met
with violent deaths mysteriously, are
conveyed to it and exposed for public
view behind a glass screen. When a
body cannot be identified it is photo
graphed, and a portrait of it remains
on view at the Morgue for months and
months after it has been buried. The
clothes found on the body are also ex-
hibited, and thus it often happens that
a long time after u man has disap-
peared, somebody, recognizing his pho
tograph or apparel, is enabled to give
evidence by which the causes of his
death are at length ascertained. 1t
must be added that whenever there is a
mysterious disappearance in Paris,
those who are interested in the missing
person 90, as a matter of course, to the
Morgue, to see if the body is not there.
A continual stream ofmen, women, and
even children, passes through this
building all day (the guardians hav-
ing orders to discourage no one from
entering), nor is the demeanor of the
crowds who go toview the dead bodies,
whether from curiosity or more serious
motives, otherwise than deoorous.

The "Stop Thief" Cry.


A great Outcry has been and is being
made by the old party press against
the members of congress who voted for
the River and HarbOr bill
II appropriated out of the treasury
of the United States, from money paid
in by people of the country, the sum OF
nearly twenty millions of dollars.
We have no objection to any condem-
nation of this appropriation as whole,
however severe, although that portion
of it which was made for the Missouri
and Mississippi rivers, and many other
items We're necessary, and therefore
just.
But amidst the clamor and noise, oc-
casionrd by the OutCry Of the monopo-
ly press because OF this appropriation,
there are something's which The Sentry
will see to ii are not overlooked lost
sight Of, or public attention diverted
from.
The = cragc sum Of about twenty
millions of dollars has been annually
paid to some two hOuSand corpora
tions, for a period OF fifteen years.
These corporations are called nation
al banks.
These have received out of the Treas
ury of the United States. in taxes
wrung from industry and paid upon
their bonds in Washington, which
ought never to have existed, the sum Of
more than two hundred millions Of dol
lars during these years.
For this vast amount there has been
returned not one penny Of value as an
equivalent. 1t is an absolute loss TO
the people, who have paid it, nor can
it ever be recovered in whole or in
part.
Let it be always remembered and
never forgotten.
Two hundred millions Of dollars
taxed upon the workers of the republic,
drawn from the sweat of their brows
and ilchcd from the Just rewards of
their toll by these banks,
Why has there been no outcry by
the old party press, that now thundcrs

Irish World.
Poverty and ignorance. Ignorance
and poverty! How closely they lean up
on and sustain each other. We will
not try to discuss which is father and
which the son, or whether they are not
alternately the son and the other lg-
norancc, the absence of know .,.
came up from the incomprc.,-
pasta dead nothing. But mind, the
soul, the spirit created in man by the
almighty, grapplcd with ignorance and
made inroads along the edges of its
vast domain. But it was not in the
Divine plan that mind should exist
apart from the body, and its first work
was to fashion some rude means OF pro-
viding the body's sustenance. That pur-
pose achieved, though ever so rudely,
the race began to multiply over the
surface of the earth, and knowledge
would have spread commensuratcly
only poverty stepped in and prevented
it. for one man who possessed knowl-
edge could orally, in its first progress,
teach one hundred men, and each OF
these had capacity to teach another
hundred in his turn. But poverty
seized on ninety-nine men out of the
hundred and said, Come along-none
of your searching for knowledge to i'm
prove your minds until you have
searched foi something to eat to sus-
tain your bodies! You must plow, and
dig, and gather up out of the earth
what will sustain you alive; and thus it
must be always. So poverty combined
with ignorance, and the devil prompted
the two to introduce third person on
the scene. That third person was the
accursed robber of the land-the eldest
born of the devil himself. Without
him ignorance would have rapidly dis
appeared, for men would have had leis-
ure, spare time plenty of it, to instruct
each other, and knowledge, invent on,
progress would have rapidly spread
over the earth. But as the ninety-nine
men were bowed to the earth, their
thoughts and their efforts imprisoned to
the one purpose of digging hungry
subsistence for themselves up out of
the ground, so the ninety-nine diggers
could do nothing but dig.
And even the one man who possessed
knowledge-the one out OF hundred
turned away his face, as general rule,
from his ninety and nine brothers as
they toiled, and staggered, and starved
under the feet of that "noble, " "honor-
able" and fright honorable eldest
son of the devil.
And so ignorance gave birth to pow
crty, and poverty fenced round the do
main of ignorance, till at last the mag
ntude of the evil darkened the earth
and flung up its shadow-up to the
gates of Heaven.
And so it was for the ages. And
poverty and ignorance had full posses
sion-undisturbed, unquestioned.
Till at last! at last! a voice was
heard crying out, "Let God be true
and every man n liar;" that He made
this land, this glorious world. And
reason and revelation came forth and
exclaimed with one voice, "The Earth
He hath given to the children of men,
