Hot water as curative agent seems to
be having "boom" now. Hot water
internally, externally and eternally is
the cry not alone from the Aunt Betsies
but from the regular, gilt-edged, full
hedged profession. DR.. 6. R. Shepherd
says he has used it for six years in cases
OF inflammation of the throat and tonslls
as Il gargle-and he recommends moist
heat for infam nations generally, and of
nuucous membranes in particular. We
once heard DR.. Parker remark that there
is much trut!. in the old Thompsonian
aphorism tuat ''heat is life and cold is
DEATH" and We are glad to know that
the common sense views Of the founder
OF the botanical school are being received
tar and wide.-Foote's Monthly.
Where and by whom was the May
flower built is the quection which has
been ari.ating the minds of a number Of
Bostonians for some time past, and it is
still unanswered. 1.-THE Mayf1ower"
seems to have been quite popular
name during the sixteenth century, as
several vessels ppeared to have regis.
tered under it. It is for this reason t ,at
the early history Of tue one particular
May flower in which Bostonians are in
terested cannot be traced. Their are
really oiny TWO things known about the
Mayflower which brought over the first
Pilgrim company beyond the fact, viz,
l, that she was Of $50 tons; 2, that she
brought over some Of Sienthorp's COM
pany to Charleston in 1880. She WIS
not the Mayhower which in l64S brought
over some negro to Barbados. for that
ship was almost double tonnage, viz. $50
tons.
