Heads to many of the summer ills to

Physicians are, we believe, generally
agreed that much injury to health re.
suits tram the'aXcessive use of ice water,
and especially diseases of the kidneys
are 'hoUght to be rapidly increasing
from that cause. But water may be
cooled without introducing ice into it
by running a coil of pipe through an ice
box, aud 50 cooled is much more whole
STue than when ice has been dissolved
in it. The temperature is not as low,
and its freedom from the Impurities
which inure in the best of ice is an i'm
poraut consideration. This method is
nov being employed largely in associa-
tiOns which are benevolent in their
character. and the refrigerators made of
late have water chambers cooled by
caii- uf pipe. As to the destructiveness
of the ,teliciousncss of food by the APP
plicatIon OF ice, it ought to be known
to every Que that meat and other edibles
ought not TO he brought into contact
with ice. Int should be kept in an air
made cold by ice. Beef shipped across
the continent and across the ocean is
nevvr frozen, but is stored in apartments
which are kept at proper temperature
by currents of air from ice boxes 1t is
stated as a fact that vastly more ice is
used in the United States than any
where else, but 1t is not probable that
lhe amount consumed will ever decrease.
If the people use it properly to cool their
drinking water and to preserve their
GOOD there is no reason why the USE Of

A disagreement of a jury in England
does not necessarily retard the admin

three weeks ago Timothy Kelley,

disagreed. About week afterwards he
was tried again by a new jury and the
same result occurred. This week he
was tried by third jury, and on Tues.
day convicted. If Kelley had been
