Pure Water as Medicine.

DIR. Brunten says, in the Practitioner, that
wateris, perhaps, the most powerful diuretic
that we possess. 1t has the power of IN
creasing tissue change and thus multiply
ing the products of tissue waste which re-
suit from il, but it removes these waste
products as fast as they are formed, and
thus, by giving rise to increased appetite,
provides fresh nutriment for the tissues,
and acts as true tonic. In persons who
are accustomed to take too little water, the
products of tissue waste may be formed fast
er than they are removed, and thus accumu-
lating may give rise to disease In the class
Of people who arise in the morning feeling
weak and languid, it seems that the languor
must depend upon imperfect removal OF
waste products from the body, as we know
that the secretion of urine In healthy per
sons is generally much less during the night
than during the day. Such persons should
drink tumbler OF water before going to
bed, in order to aid the secretion Of urine
and Of the waste products during the night

An Experiment. 10 snuntl.

An astonishing experiment may be per-
formed with no apparatus but piece OF
string five or six feet long. A persons
hands being held over his ears, this string
passed around his head by another per-
son, who holds both ends in one hand. and
by drawing the fingers or nails of the
other hand over the cord produces upon
the tympanum of the subject impressions
of almost startling intensity. Sharp
peals of thunder, changing into distant
and prolonged rumbling, are effects that
may be readily iven.
