The Use OF water and salt.

Salt is an abso' ute essential to the diet
of man. 1t promotes health in various
ways. Many of the functions OF the
body go on better under its influence,
and without it the blood becomes i'm
poverished. While alcomplete depriva-
tion of salt would produce disastrous re-
suits, an excessive use of it would
scarcely be less harmful. In large doses
it acts ss an emetic; 10 quantities beyond
the requirements of health it irritstes
the stomach and intestines and some
times purges. Those who use salt un-
usually freely almost always suffer more
or less from constipation.
To drink large quantities of water
daily should be rule with those who
suffer from constipation. Each day the
system needs ct least two quarts OF
water, as about that quantity is used up
or thrown out of it every twenty-four
hours. Fruits and vegetable foods con-
tain much water, and 10 tea, coffee, soups,
ETC., considerable is taken habitually.
In all ways, as stated, about two quarts
of water should enter the stomach daily.
Ii is good plan to drink one or two
glasses of water from half an hour to an
hour before eating breakfast. And it
may either be hot or cold as preferred.
Whichever is used, the water should be
slowly slipped. To delnge the stomach
with cold water would be to invite dys-
peptic troubles. Boston Herald.

It is a fortunate thing. perhaps, that Wyoming has put in it's new state constl- tuition the same right for women as men to vote and take part in all the duties of the government. The rest of the country will learn in time what benefit IS gained by conferring the obligation of the franchise on women. That it will prove beneficial to some extent in securing better men m local offices and improving school affairs, there has never been a question. But what effect political duties will have on the woman is the main question. Modesty and timidity are woman's natural charac- teristics. and are in her means of help and protection, which in man are regarded as weaknesses. He is expected to be the wo- man s complement in these respects, but if the latter is to vote she must be her own counsellor, and act independently and in opposition to her natural helper if her judgment runs in opposition. If the wo- man learns to be bold aud self reliant ln political matters she certainly will in eve rytbing else, and will assert herself with independence. This seems to introduce 2 new direction to her course of life, and shs will be subject to new and powerful ihfiu- ences ID molding her character and devel. oping her life. The further she Is from man in what ennoblee him the more does she attract and influence him. A masculine woman is hateful to 8 grandly developed man, as it is the traits of gentleness and reverence for strength in the former that wins the admiration of the latter. It IS not the abstract right to vote that has been the reason for withholding the ballot from wo- man, but the fear of the effects of burden ing her with such duty. This is the great fear of the mass of intelligent women, and is the reason why so few of them have taken any interest in securing for them selves the voting privilege.

CHiUNCEY M. DEPEW,S EXAMPLE.

I saw an illustration of his methods this week. On one of the hottest nights of the week-and there were some scorchers-I happened to miss a train on the Central road by the fraction of a minute, and as I had forfeited my dinner in the wild hope of catching the train felt depression of spirits which was in inverse ratio to the height of the thermometer. Idived across the street to the nearest place and entered @ long, narrow and low ceilinged cafe. Twenty or thirty dejected looking men with their waistcoats unbuttoned, their collars loosened and their legs stretched out sat hopping their faces and endeavor- ing to eat. A crew of frowsy walters Jagged his chair flaming himself languidly. I ordered something to eat and sat in the stuffy seclusion of a corner trying to sum- mon up enough energy to go town and at- tend to some important work I had in hand. It was imperative, and yet I had made up my mind to let it go by the board, and was sitting there firmly resolved to do no more that night, when the door was opened briskly and a strongly built, square shouldered man strode in, glanced rapidly about, selected a table that stood apart, and taking off his hat revealed the dome like forehead and thinly matched cranium of Chauncey Depew. A small, active and alert young man who accompanied MT. Depew dropped the valises he was carry ing on the floor, handed the famous rail road president big bundle of papers and whipping out big note book revealed the fact that he was stenographer. He was good one, too. For an hour he never raised his head from the book nor asked a single question. His pencil moved with machine like regularity from one side of the page to the other until the book was half filled with notes. As for MT. Depew he offered a picture of energy, intellectual ity and health which was vividly accent uated by the groups of Tagged, lisfless and somnolent men in the same room. He sat perfectly erect, with his papers Tn one hand, while he occasionally passed his handkerchief over his forehead with the other, dictating with indefatigable even- ness and emphasis. The play of his feat ures and the constantly alternating series of expressions almost give an index of the letters he dictated. One paper after an- other was disposed of, and in exactly an hour the correspondence was finished and MT. Depew arose, handed a liberal fee to the waiter bowed courteously to the cash fer and strode out. His exhibition of en- ergy and vitality was not without effect The waiter braced up, the cashier began balancing his books, number of the diners buttoned their waistcoats and strengthened up in their chairs and light ed large cigar, climbed on the bow of a Fourth avenue car and went down town to tackle the work I had decided to shirk be- fore Chauncey Depew had set us all good example.

-Dr. George Everett Markham, the well-known East Hartford physician, died of diphtheria at his home at 4 45 p. m., on the 4th inst, after an illness of four days.
 He contracted the disease of patient. On the Monday preceding his death Dr. E. J. Mcknight was passing Dr. Markham's, and in response to request of the latter, who was workingin his garden. made an examination of hls throat. He found it somewhat infiamed, and advised that care be taken of it. That afternoon Dr. Mark ham went to Warehouse Point, and there was taken i'll. He had some difficulty in getting home, and was obliged to rest in the depot. Tuesday he was very sick, ,and Wednesday he was no better. Thursday he seemed to be improving, although he was not so we'll toward night. Dr. Mex. made a call upon him at o'clock Friday morning and found him quite comfortable. Just as he was unhitching his horse to drive away he was called back and found Dr. Markham practically without breath. In fit of coughing he had dislodged a piece of membrane which had entered the windpipe, and which would have strangled him had not Dr. Mcknight hurredly per. formed the operation of tracheotomy. Dur ing the day Drs. Wainright, Griswold and Sedgwick were in attendance with Dr. Nc Knight, but all efforts proved fruitless.
 Dr. Markham was born in East Long. meadow, Mass, March 9, 1857. He was graduated at Monson, Academy in 1878 He taught school for awhile in Hazardville and West Stafford. Later he took a med ical course at the College of the City o New York, and took his diploma there 1T 1882. He was very popular in East Hart ford, and was member of the grange. Ht was president of the Peoples Temperance Society of Burnside, and was examiner fol his region for the Equitable Life Insurance Company of New York. He was active il politics, having been always a staunch re publican. Last Saturday night he presid ed at his school district meeting.

\ sTIxGING REBUKE.

It W&S on U btIPCt GaI UOuuQ up tOWU &G about the time when the men and women who work in the great downtown hive of business for the better part of the day are hurryinp home. Every seat was occupied when the car stopped and two women boarded it. The first was an elderly wom- an, somewhat feeble. The second was younger, sturdy and aggressive looking. A good looking man of middle age arose from his seat, and, touching his hat, asked the elderly lady tosbe seated. Before she could sit down, however, the youngest woman pushed her aside and sat down herself. There was no one in the car who did not know that the man who had given up his seat intended it for the older woman, and the action of the younger one astor- ished everybody for moment. Then half dozen seats were vacated and the elderly woman took one of them.
 The man who had first given up his seat r.iaed his hat to tho woman who had taken the place not intended for her, and said in a voice that could be heard throughout the.car Madam, I believe you to be among that class of woman who are al- ways c ,mplaining of mans lack of courtesy toward women. You will pardon me if I say that you are also one of that class of women who tempt men to be discourteous. !" Then he camly proceeded to read his even- ing paper.
 l An audible snicker ran through the car and one woman whispered to another, Served her right" The woman flushed and looked straight befor her, paying no attention. She stood the looks of the oth. Ter passengers for fully half dozen blocks. Then she signaled the conductor, and, looking neither to the right nor the left, swept out of the car. A Mail and Ex- press man who had curiosity enough to also leave the car at the same place and watch her saw her board the next up town car that came along.
 The rebuke had had its effect.

 As fifteen years ago, When she resigned her maiden name
 But kept the IL" you know. Dear friends we reach to you to-day Our hands in joyful greeting; We trust these simple gifts will say
 Our hearts with yours are beating. And when earth's tale has all been told
 And bridal garments wait Your advent to the streets of gold, As seen through heaven's gate, May you, dear friends, still find that love Unchanging and divine, Perfected in the realms above,
 May evermore be thine.

The Stock of the company sold few years ago at $4 900 share. It sold in 1876 at $17 share. Florence, Ala, with very favorable physical conditions, with population of some 5000, growth from less than 1000 in 1887, with diversified manufactures in suc- cessful operation. The foundation for the largest cotton mill in the south (53, ,OOO spin dles) nearly completed. The first iron fur nace began operations in October. Its daily profits are not less than $500. Its second iron furnace and a rolling mill will be in operation as soon as men and money can con- struct and operate them. These industries alone will call for several thousand new peo- pie, and are only beginning of what the near future will develop. Philadelphia cap- italists have recently invested more than one million dollars in real estate and other enter prises in Florence.
