Healing Properties Of Water.

There is no remedy of such general ap-
plication and none so easily attainable
as water, and yet nine persons in ten
will pass it by in an emergency to seek
for something of less efficacy. There
are but few cases of illness where
water should not occupy the highest
place as remedial agent. A strip of
flannel or napkin folded lengthwise and
wrung out of hot water and applied
around the neck of child that has the
Group will usually bring relief in ten
minutes. A towel folded several times
and quickly wrung out of hot water and
applied over the seat of the pain in tooth
ache or neuralgia will generally afford
prompt relief. This treatment in collie
works like magic. We have known cases
that have resisted other treatment for
hours yield to this in ten minutes. There
is nothing that will so promptly cut short
a congestion of the lungs, sore throat, or
rheumatism, as hot water when applied
promptly and thoroughly. Pieces of cot
ton batting dipped in hot water, and kept
applied to all sores and new cuts, bruises
and sprains, is the treatment now gener-
ally adopted in hospitals, Sprained ankle
has been cured in an hour by showering
it with hot water, poured from height
of ten feet. Tepid water acts promptly as
an emetic, and hot water taken freely
half an hour before bed time is the best
of cathartics in the case of constipation,
while it has most soothing effect on the
stomach and bowels. This treatment
continued for few months, with proper
attention to diet, will alleviate any case
of dySpepsia.-E

The Point OF the Pilots, Bill.

The promptness with which the House
Judiciary Committee agreed to report
favOrably the bill TO amend the pilOtage
laws may be taken rs an indication that
the purpose of the bill Is so just that It
needs only to be stated to be approved.
There Is not much reason to doubt that
the attempts which are being made to
hide the real point Of the bill, and TO ex-
cite prejudice against it by trying to
create tho impression that the pilots are
endeavorlng to get jurisdiction Of vessels
from which they have never yet claimed
fees, will fail.
What the pilots are after is their fees
on certain outward bound vessels, the
payment OF which these vessels have been
able to evade lately on account OF the dis
covery of defect in the law. The bill
cures the detect and gives the pilots the
protection that II was originally intended
they should have.
Ii ia true that another amendment TO
the law is proposed, but the pilots do not
expect any direct benefit from IL. AS the
law now stands vessels trading between
the ports Of this State and those Of South
Carolina or Florida are exempt from pilot
age fees. This exemption was the basis OF
ono decision which declared lie pilotage
laws Of the State were unconstitutional
because they Disseminated In favor Of the
citizens Of South Carolina and Florida,
and the Federal constitution does not
permit any discrimination.
The aim Of the provision OF the pend
ING bill which strikes out the exemption
is to avoid the possibility OF the question
Of the constitutionalty Of the pilotage
laws being raised. The pilots do not ex-
pect 10 yet any fees from vessels trading
between the ports Of this State aud those
Of South Carolina or Florida. Indeed, II
H. doubtful II there are any such vessels
that are likely 10 engage their attention.
But assuming that there rs "a number Of
such vessels, 10 ~ pretty safe b. assert that.
~ the bin In IL present shape should
pass, tho pilots would not insist upon
plotting tlem M and 0ut of port.
Those who are opposing the bin are not
opposing u beeause Of the provision roln-
tive ~ the exemption clause. They are

From the Minneapolis Tribune.
The calling of a good lightweight Jockey
In any country is highly lucrative one; and
the dearth that there is of good men riders
who can train down to eligible proportions, is
shown by the number of good horses that are
thrown away every year from the necessity
OF lntrusting tickllsh mounts to boys. who
have neither the hands nor the head to handle
strong horse - ell in hard fought race.
There never have been and never Will be. till
the human race has sadly deterorated in
physique, men OF light weight enough to fill
the saddles on all the race courses of the
world: and women there are in plenty, who,
from an owners point OF view, would he a
vast Improvement on the average boy jockey.
Turf circles of the old world have recognized
this, ana the professional knight of the pig
skin is consequently disturbed in spirit. A nd
gate receipts, too, would swell il lady riders
came INTO fashion. There would be y new
charm added to horse racing if the CHERRY
and black hoops" encased a female form, and
the old gold and black cap surmOunted a
pretty face with a taXen bang and an ex-
cruciating little retrONsse nose. We have lady
skaters, lady pugIlists, and lady wrestlers;
why not lady Jockeys?

What's In a Name?


There is a certain apostle of higher culture
among us who has recently been Rladdened
by the birth of a son and hC,r When the
necessary time arrived, the infant was taken
t. be duly registered. The registrar, accord
ing to the usual custom, inquired of the pa
rent what name he was TO give 10 his Of
4pring. The apostle OF higher culture waved
the idea of nomenclature sternly away. His
child, he assured the astcnished registrar,
should remain unnamed until he had attained
TO years of discretion. and would be entitled
TO voice in the choice Of his own name. For
moment the registrar was astounded, but
he soon proved equal to the occasion. "Oh,
very Well he said goOd-humOredly, lust rs
YOU please. On all such occasions, when the
parent gives the child no name. we lnvaria-
bly, enter IL as John" The apostle Of higher
culture reeled against the wall, and gasped
for few moments in speeenless horror at the
idea of any truly aesthetic infant being flung
into the world with so commonplace CHRIS
uan name. Then recovering himself, he as
sured the registrar that he had changed his
mind. that his son should be named, and he
decided to call his offspring Basilides, or some
other name suggestive Of the early church.

PIucky Young Mather.

From the Neao Hdosn Register.
Prof. Mather, of ale College. has his fam
lily at North StOnIngton FOR the summer.
Among them is a bright little boy only IL
years of age. Monday afternoon he WAS the
only occupant OF the mail coach as it pulled
up at the post Office to make it, delivery. The
driver leaDed OF and carried the pouches in,
and the horses were left unattended. A that
moment a bicyclist shot by with such velocity
as to sfarte the animals, and in a moment
they were of at a break neck pace going out
OF the village. The great vehicle rocked from
side to side. and for the moment supreme eX-
element reigned among the villagers, who
could see the white faced boy inside as it few
by. He made no cutlery. The horses had run
about half mile when the little fellow was
seen crawling out % the door OF the stage to
the box Of the vehicle. 1t was perilOus act,
and had he fallen he would very likely have
been crushed under the hying wheels. AS
soon as he secured his position on the box he
grasped the reins, and, bracing himself, sue
ceeded in pulling on the biIs so hard that the
horses were finally conquered 1t was hard
fight, however, and the team was nearly a
mile from the village before he succeeded in
his undertaking

opposing 1t because of the provision which
prevents them from eyading the payment
of outward bound fees, but they are hav-
ing more to say about the provision to
which they have no objection than to the
one 20 which they object, because, until
It's real purpose is fully understood, 1t
can be used to better advantage in excit-
ing opposition to the bill.
The members of the Legislature, how
ever, will hardly make a mistake with re-
spect to the exemption provision. The Ju-
dietary Committee Of the House under
stood it quickly, and it is not probable
that the Judiciary Committee of the Sem
ate will have any difficulty in compre-
bending it. 1t is very seldom that
unanimous report of a committee is re-
jected by either branch of the Legislature.
AS we have already said, the only real
point in the bill Is that making it possible
to enforce the payment OF outwardbound
pilOtage fees in accordance with the in
tention Of the law when originally passed.
The only question, therefore. is this:
Can the Legislature afford TO have It's
purpose defeated by failure TO state that
purpose fully and clearly 1t is not asked
to do any new thing, but TO render effec-
tive that which it has already done. Its
purpose was to give the pilots outward
bound fees when it passed the pllotage
laws. A way was found TO defeat that
purpose. Is it not the duty Of the Legis-
ture to perfect its wOrk2
The question whether the compulsory
pilOtage system is something that ought
to be abolished or supported is not pre-
scented by anything that appears in the
pending bill.N If those who are opposing
this bill object to the pilotage system let
them attack it in a legitimate way. 1t is
folly for them to expect the Legislature
TO encourage the evasion Of the laws by
refusing to make effective the laws in be-
half Of the pilots.
