We may Judge something OF the rela-
tive value of water, in tho human econ
omy, when we remember that most Of
the body and its solvent juices are pure
water. For example, the saliva is SO
per cent. water, the gastric juice 81, the
bile 81, pancrcatic Juice go blood 70,
and even our bones 10, as solid rs they
seem. Since the Creator made us as we
nre, established these relations of water
TO the system, it is reasonable to infer
that u large per cent. Of alcohol COM
blpcd with these solvent fluids would
not increase their effectiveness. If the
change of starchy foods into grape sugar,
as an important step in the digestive
process, demands 90 per cent. Of water
for IFS perfection, | cannot believe that
an addition Of 10 per cent. Of alcohol
would render that process any easier or
more expeditions. On reaching the
stomach for another change, if the Gre
ator, in induito wisdom, has made the
gastric juice principally OF water, I do
not feel justified in recommending ale or
porter as an aid to digestion. The same
principles will equally apply to all Of
the remaining processes. Water is the
best solvent known--more nearly uni
versal than any other. This constitutes
1t the best possible drink for ali living

Memphis

Memphis was one Of the Oldest OF the
worlds great cities. It vas built on the
banks of the Nile when all Europe was
a savage wilderness, and its inhabitants
barbarians living in huts and caves.
The great city grew up under the rule OF
the Pharaohs to he scene of busy
trade, almost as thickly peoplcd as Lon
don or New York. To-day its site can
scarcely be traced. But 1000 years ago
Memphis was city OF palaces and tenn
Piles. Pharaoh was lodged more splen-
didly than Louis XIV, and Cheops pro-
vided himself with tho most magnificent
OF tombs. One OF the Memphian tenn
pies is thus described: "He seemed to
be in Memphis, his native city and, on
tering the Temple of Isis, saw it shining
with the spRndor of thousand lighted
lamps all the avenues OF the temple
were crowded with people, and resound-
ed with the noise of the passing
throngs." The inner shrine WAS sup
posed to be the residence of the goddess.
To Memphis, perhaps, came Joseph, the
gentle Jew, to become the ruler OF the
land. There came his brethren and the
lsraelites to buy corn. Here the Jews
passed their four centuries of captivity
from its palaces they bore off the jewels
and gold Of the Egyptians from its
memorable shore they set out on their
march from the gates Of Memphis the
furious Pharaoh followed with chariot
and horse, to perish in the treacherous
sea.
Nowhere can be found more striking
incidents than are connected with this
deso!ato, narrow part OF the shore OF
the Nile. Moses, perhaps, hoated III
his basket near by, and won hi. lie
with the smile of infancy, always ire
sistible. Ii was the scono Of the plaques
of the terrible darkness, of the years of
plenty and the years of want. 1t flour
ished in splendor and wealth fora period
that makes tho age OF most cities seem
trivial. New York is more than $50
years old, London about 1909; Mem
phis fouliShed for more than 5000
years. It has passed away, but ono Of
its labors can never apparently perish.
Cheops, one Of the. Memphian Kings,
built the largest Of the pyramids, and
near it are several others not much less
in size. A pyramid WAS no DOUBT a
royal tomb. Various explanations have
been given Of the origin AMI purpose of
those wonderful buildings. Some sup
pose them intended for Astronomical
purposes; others suggest that they
were designed to marx the dimensions
OF an inch, and fix the system Of com
putting distances. But history and
tradition assert that they were the
tombs Of the Memphian Kings. -Har.

NEWSPAPERS.

There are certainly no products Of the
wts so cheap as the newspaper, and it is
difficult to imagine any other thing.
Were it not a medium for the communi-
cation of the commercial needs of the
community, Which form a part Of it's in
come, but are not strictly one Of its
journalistic functions, it would be i'm
possible to furnish what it does at the
prices which it gets. That on the whole
il does not pay ike other furnished pro-
ducts--the cake, the cigar, the oyster
supper, the ribbon, the laces, the glass
OF beer-can only DO explained on tho
theory once advanced by the English
philosopher who was asked why tho
manufacturers OF ale wore all million
aires, and the authors nil poor. "Be-
cause" he replied, for one man who
has brains, thirty have bowels. DC.

THE PRESS


Henry Watterson gives out something
in the following extract which ought to
be not only read, but memorized and
8t'edjed, by the whole profession
We are passing through an era OF
transition. The sentimental politics
Of the sectional epoch is pretty well
worked out. With us there is little else
than individual politics, the two parties
being for the most part aggregations OF
interior personalities. The press, which
has vast power and capabilities, knows
the use of neither. AS Il public force it
is curse instead Of a blessing. 1t is q
vehicle, not merely of disiointed thought,
but Of mean and paltry thoughts; sensa-
tional and unreliable in its news; coarse,
feeble and splenetic in its wit; too often
mercenary and opinioulcss, and geuer-
ally underbrod in tone.
There is no thoughtful journalist who
does not feel this TO he true; aNd yet
what vast opportunities for seIt-eleyation
and for great public service are enjoyed
by the newspaper ot the present day. 1t
ought to be the master, Instead of the
slave, Of The telegraph and tho railroads;
it ought to yUill in responsibility with
the pulpit snd the mp. Does it? In
spite of Gil.its mn~culali,y, which makes
it feared, it is secretly daspisod by the
public, and, instead OF being passport
to the consideration Of strangers, the
knowledge that man is journalist has
to be overcome before he can remove
certain half-unconscious prejudice exist
ing i'll the memory of those who cannot
forget the lewd, fickle and dastardly
character of so much OF our contempora.
ry journalism.
Tt is not pleasant, for one who is
nothing if not a journalist, to say this.
But it is true, aud it expresses the real
sentiment entertained by the best intel
ligence of the country As a rule, men
are afraid to say SO. But they think it;
and, until journalists realize it, there
will he no reform. take leave to say
as much because I am able to tackle all
the truths that may bo told about me,
and am Indifferent to lies and liars
And so I dismiss Bro. Scissors and his
unsavory collation. OF scoundrelisns. In
most cases, if chose, could show o
dishonoring personal motive for the
most Of these But the game, as the
saying goes, is not worth the candle.
The press of the South-which has
been accused of want of enterprise
has, perhaps on that account, escaped
at least part OF the ofensiveness char
acteristic of the more advanced jour-
nalism of the day. AS il advances, let
us try to be equally responsible and de-
corous. Gentlemanhood is not at dis
count yet, even with the lowest classes.
To be amusing it is not necessary to be
indecent. To be strong, it is not neces-
sary to trample down the weak. To be
newsy, it is not necessary to invade the
sanctity Of private life. After while,
the public will awaken to its own de-
fense; and, when it does, thorough re-
liability and absolute cleanliness will
become Indispensable to newspaper sue
cess.
