A SEA VOYAGE.
The Causes Of Its Good Effect on
lnVaifdS.

the causes OF Its GOOD ERECT on
lnvalids.
1. Perfect rest and quiet and CON-
plete removal from and change of or
binary occupation and way of life; a
very thorough change of scene and
perfect and enforced rest from both
mental and physical labor.
2. The life in the open air and the
great amount of sunshine to be enjoy
ed. 1t is quite possible, under favor
able circumstances, to pass fifteen
hours daily in the open air. and when
eve it is possible the traveller by sea
is certain to endeavor to escape from
the close and sometimes unpleasant at
mosphere Of a small cabin into the
pure air to be found on deck.
3. The great purity of the air at
sea and it's entire freedom from organic
dust and other impurities. In this re-
spect it has an advantage w the air
of the open country, for the latter is
apt to contain the pollen. of grasses
and other plants, which in some per-
son excits hay fever and asthma.
4. The presence in sea air of a
large amount of ozone, as we'll as par
ticles of saline matter, more particu-
larly in stormy weather, from the sea
spray, and these may exercise a bene-
fetal effect in certain throat and pull
monary affections on the respiratory
mucous membrane.
s.. The great equability of the tenn
perature at sea. This refers chiefly to
the daily variations, which rarely ex-
ceeds 4 Or 5 degrees Fahrenheit.
6. The great humidity of the at
mosphere and the high barometric
pressure, which are considered to ex-
ercise a useful sedative influence on
certain constitutions.
Z The e~xhilarating and tonic effect
of rapid motion through the air; for
by the continuous progress of the ship
the e breezes are constantly blowing
over it and the passengers are borne
through the rapidly moving air with
out any exertion of their own.
The influence of these currents of
air on the surface of the body is no
doubt important, acting as a stimulant
and a tonic, increasing evaporation
from the skin and imparting tone to
the superficial blood vessels. TO these
influences must be added, in the case of
long sea voyages; the invigorating
effect OF the changes of climate ex-
perienced in passing through the diff
ferent regions of the ocean. It cannot,
however, be doubted that, altho ugh
this may have a bracing effect on many,
it is often felt to act injuriously by the
more serious and sensitive class of in
valids.

thus insuring its ration of good luck
through life, although originally the
custom meant the child's dedication to
the sun god. Another very ancient bit
of superstition is connected with the
ash tree. This undoubtedly comes
from the sacred ash Yggdrasie of Morse
mythology, and traces of it are pre-
served in Scandinavian, German and
English speaking countries, even Chi
cago being included. A few strokes
with a brand of this tree is accounted a
sovereign remedy against cramps and
lameness in man and beast with the
Scaudinavians of this city. A young
ash tree, If split and a sick child pass
ed over the cleft, will cure the COM
plant. Children of English parents in
this city still use the formula in trying
to rid themselves of a troublesome.
wart, etc.:
Ashen tree, ashen tree,
Pray take this var off me!
As to fire, however, most of the
charms, lamentations and spells against
it-and their name is legion all over
Europe-Chicagoans OF all nation
alities have given up imploring the aid
of such means as that of st. Agatha or
St. Florian, and have now altogether
put their trust in the brave Chicago
fire laddies, as being the most effective
way of squelching a fire. On the
other hand, though artistic whistling
has become quite ar accomplishment
among the elite Of Chicago ladies, the
old saying:
A whistling woman and Growing hen,
Are neither fit for God nor men.
Another version making the second
line read:
Will call the old gentleman outof his den.
And still another:
Never yet came to a good end.
Talking of hens brings to mind the
curious saying which is perpetuated
by old crones from the north OF Eng
land and Wales, in which the flying Of
magpies is thus apostrophized:
One for sorrow, two for mirth,
Three for a wedding, four for death.
Which is probably a little bit OF
pagan bird augury left over to this
day.

This friend knew whereof she spoke" for
she had been cured by the remedy she advis-

it's praise. and tells her friends that DR.. Pierce
deserves the universal gratitude Of woman

give satisfaction in every case or money re-

A FRENCH statistician has just as
certained that a human being, of
either sex, who ia a moderate eater,
and who lives to be seventy years old,
consumes during 'the days of the
years of his life'' a quantity of food
which would fill twenty ordinary
railway baggage cars. A good
eater" however, may require as
m any as thirty.

The Fishers Widow.

The boats 70 out and the boats come in,
Under the wintry sky;
And the rain and foam are white in the
wind,
And the white gulls cry.
She sees the sea when the wind is wild,
Swept by the windy rain;
And her hearts a weary of sea and land
As the long days wane.
She sees the torn sails fly in the foam,
Broad on the sky line gray;
And the boats 60 out and the boats come
in,
But there's one away.

water and then drying by pressing in

The dirt will then be found to have
been removed. Also the lace.
The salt cellar on the table is again
trying to assert itself, but it cannot
endure very long. If people would
avoid missing in the gravy with their
salt spoon all would be we'll, but the
thoughtless are prone to make this
mistake just the same as they are also
apt to stir their coffee with the sugar
spoon awhile before returning it. A
little salt box with salt in it, for each
guest, and holes in the top which will
allow the salt to escape, will always
be en- rapport.

The custom of allowing pet dogs to
sleep in the same room with the chill

Cremation is coming more and more
into vogue in Germany, in spite Of the
expense and certain legal difficulties
which render It's performance in some
parts almost an impossibility. At Gotha
no fewer than one hundred bodies have
been cremated during the present
year.
