Is Ice Water a Healthy Drink?

Tn the opinion of the editor of the
Sanitary Volunteer, the official organ of
the New Hampshire hoard of health,
there is a great deal of sentiment and
many opinions regarding the use of ice
water that vanish when the light of
reason and experience is tHrned upon
them. The fact is that ice water, drank
slowly and in moderate quantities, con-
stitutes healthful and invigorating
drink. There is no doubt that ice is a
great sanitary agent, and every family
ought to be provided with it during the
warmer months of the year. 1t is true
that the inordinate use of ice water, or
its use under some special conditions
and circumstances, is offended with
great danger; so is the improper use of
any other drink or food. The assump-
ton that iced water is dangerous, and
that iced tea, or iced coffee, or iced
lemonade is a harmless substitute, is
simply a delusion. AS the source of
danger feared by some is the degree of
cold, we fail to see clearly how flavor
modifies the effect of temperature.
There are individuals, undoubtedly,
who cannot drink ice water without
injury, and who ought never to use it,
but to great majority of persons it is
refreshing and healthful. Its use, tenn
perate and discreet, is in no way to be
condemned, which cannot be said OF
its notwithstanding NetUs.

The WAY of the Negro.

The ignorant, pleasure loving, happy

upon doctor with kind of supersti-
tious respect. The simplicity of his
mind makes him an uncanny being, who
brings about wonderful results by means
that can be little Short of supernatural.
He will bring his last fifty cents to, a
doctor whom he has employed and force
it upon him, whether he wants it or not.
"Take it, boss" says he; "Ill be hoo

Eel Skins for Rheumatism.

"Give me two large eel skins" said q
young woman who entered North End
drug store at the time q Globe man hap
pened to be GueEching his thirst at the
soda fountain.
"Eel skinsr' said The Globe man to
the clerk, when the young lady had left
with her purchase. "What does she
want of eel skins"
rheumatism, said the drug clerk.
You'd be surprised at the number of
people who use eel skins for rheuma-
tism. know an old man whose arms
and legs are completely strapped with
them, and he believes that they prolong
his life. We have more or less call for
them, but l understand that up town
stores don't keep them, although once
in while their customers ask for them.
We get our skins of fish dealer on At
lantic avenue. He purchases them from
South Boston people, who sell the skinned
eels for food, and when the skins are
dried, sell them to various customers.
In many of the fish stores on Atlantic
avenue you will see bunch of the skins
suspended from the wall by hook.
They are very oily and soft, and while I
don't take much stock in them, num-
bers of people have implicit faith in
them. I am told that there is Il German
family in South Boston that sells these
eel skins to various people throughout
the United States and realizes snug
little income therettom. Boston Globe.

CURES FOR INSOMNIA.
A Lady Tells How She Helped Her Hus-
band to Break the Awful Spell

A Lady Tells How She Helped Her Hus-
band to Break the Awful Spell
] was much interested in the notes
from DR.. Ford's lecture in the Herald of
Health, and wish that every woman as
well as every nurse in the land could
read them. Those of US who are at the
heads Of households may some time need
all the knowledge we can get upon the
subject of insomnia The trouble grows
more common every year, especially in
America, where we are apt to live upon
'nerve" in all times of trial or excite
ment.
There is no doubt that personal mag
netism is one of the best medicines for
insomnia, the will of the nurse subju-
eating and calming that of the patient.
Two very unhappy cases have come un-
der my own personal supervision. One
was my husband, who became so wretch
ed that he would sleep about two hours
and then get up to walk all over the
place, and often for miles into the coun-
try. One night l began talking to him
when he awakened, and finding that my
voice quieted him, kept on, repeating
poetry, and finally mixing my sentences
up in dreadful way, I was so sleepy
myself. But he went to sleep, too, and
did not awaken until near morning. 1t
was remarkable, for he had not slept so
much at night for two years. That day
l learned to repeat Paris Rom, knowing
that my husband was very fond of it.
So when he got wakeful the next night
l had something to say over to him, and
to my delight, he fell asleep before Twas
half through the poem. And SO we kept
up our midnight conversations for three
months, telling all the fairy stories, the
goSsipy incidents, and repeating all the
poems l knew. And little by little, SO
soon as he began to sleep every night, he
was cured, and now a cannon fired in
the room would hardly awaken him.
The other case was Of lady with
whom spent q year. 1 begged her to
try the Dalsarte movements of the body
-limbering herself, and swinging about
until she began to feel drowsy. When
she would grow restless in the night,
she would arise and try the same exer-
else. 1t finally cured her, after a year
of faithful practice. Her trouble was
more physical, while my husbands was
mental. He grew to depend upon me
like child, and if l happened to be
away from the house, he could not sleep.
So soon as person so afflicted begins to
| slaen we'll tho ypnaral health imnrnvoc
and sleep is more easily induced. AS
DR.. Ford says, there is a knack of put
ting one to sleep, and each daughter of
the family ought especially to learn the
secret, if possible, for SC much of the
comfort and well being of humanity de-
pends upon women.-Mrs. George W.
Ogilvie in Herald of Health.

All Sin and the Gas,nau.

Admiral Porter held state dinner in
Washington and All Sin, Chinese SER
want, was assigned to duty in attendance
at the door. In his country visitors
rank is indicated by the size of the card,
and a huge yellow one means the pres
ence of prince. The small bits of paste
board received but scapt courtesy from
All Sin, but when the gas collector pre-
sented his bill the Celestials demeanor
underwent change. The long, yellow
slip captured All Sin, and with profound
salaams he bowed the astonished gasman
into the presence of the amazed family
and irate head of the Chicago
Times.

The Future of steamboatinr.

1t is not easy to predict what is to be
the future of this great boating interest,
We have over twenty thousand miles of
steam navigation, we have original and
enterprising boat builders, and an enor-
nous travelling public. We have had
in the past a phenomenal fleet of steam
boats, particularly on our western rivers,
and yet the business has been greatly de-
pressed, and there are fewer boats afioat
today than twenty years ago. Moreover
and this is the most serious matter of
all-our canals are being abandoned year
by year. While Europe spends millions
on canals and waterways, while France
is trying to make every little stream
navigable, and England is trying to turn
her interior cities into seaports, we per-
init OUR canals to fill up or foolishly give
them away to impecunious railroads for
roadbeds. Is it wise? Are we safe in
trusting all our freight business to rail-
road corporations? Today we can, if the
need come, send gunboats inland from
the Delaware to New York bay. If we
permit the railroads to destroy the busi-
ness of the canal between our ship yards
and our navy yards, we may be sure
that in every European war Office the
fact of our folly is carefully noted for
future reference. Once Great Britain
fought great battle to destroy the
water route that connects the port of New
York with the back door of New Eng
land. Saratoga was fought to destroy
vital water route. Fortunately, the
English generals who planned in London
thus to Gut the country in two failed, and
yet today we are abandoning our canals
and see our great internal steam naviga-
ton system decay without a thought of
the consequences.
On the other hand-for there is a
brighter side to every picture-there is a
disposition among the travelling public
TO demand larger, finer, and safer boats
everywhere. We are being taught by
English tourists who visit us how to see
our own country. We may complacent.
ly talk of our limited trains and all that.
Every foreigner who visits us asks first
of all for our steamboat routes, because
our lake, river, and sound boats are
known of all the world.-Charles Ber
nard in Century.
