HOBBIES OF THE uYG1Ex1srs.-There
were several dozen of the hygieDists
in council, each with his individual
hobby. Each thought all the others
were wrong. Each was sure that his
own hobby was the only correct one.
A gentleman present said he had
taken Browns Iron Bitters for de-
bility and dyspepsia, and, though he
didn't want to make fuss about it,
he knew the use of this great TONIC to.
be better than all the notions he had
heard advanced in the council. One
practical cure is worth thousands of
guesses and notions. Thousands of
happy convalescents speak greatfuily
of Browns Iron Bitters.

HAMMoCKS VS.. BEDS.
Some Advantages of the South American
Sleeping Arrangement.

some Advantages OF the South American
Sleeping Arrangement.
Beds are occupied night after night,
year after year. by divers persons in
sickness and in health, in summers
heat and winters cold, and as to when
bedding is remade and purified, each
one can Judge by his own experience.
Compare this with the use of the South
American hammock, which requires
only stout blanket inside, and in
winter woolen sleeping dress as well
of suitable make, j. e., drawers, socks
and loose jacket, all periodically
washable. The sanitary difference be-
comes at once startling to those who
have never considered the subject be-
fore. The South American hammock
is made of the fibres of the young leaves
of the ita palm (Mauritia hexuose), so
woven that it yields to every movement
and projection of the body in every
direction, except lengthways, in which
direction the weight of the body
establishes its own support, the
same as in chairs with the loose
canvas backs. Hammocks are very
easy to get into and out of, and one
can not fall out of them when asleep
They should be swung the same dis.
tance from the ground as the seat of a
chair. They form an excellent seat.
Sitting down., one draws the back of the
hammock up as high as one may de-
sire. The proper way to get into a
hammock-for there is proper way
is first to sit down on it and then throw
the legs up and the back down, wrap
ping yourself up in its soft, elastic and
ample folds The best way to lie is
crossways. The position can be varied
in three or four ways. The writer has
passed several nights in such ham,
mock and blanket, exposed to the damps
of a South American forest, and risen
perhaps more refreshed than if he had
slept in bed. For bedridden people
their use would be invaluable. Those
who have been confined to a bed or
water-bed for three or four months
know how fatiguing and disgusting they
become. In many cases in hospitals
such hammocks would be real sanitary
appliances. The hammock have comes
from the Essequibo Indians in British
Guinea. do not know why similar
mode of open weaving (more like knit
ting, without the knott of some mate
rial having the mellow feeling of the
rush used in rush-bottomed chairs could
not be managed in this country
