BE Healthy.

BE Healthy.
The first and common object Oh the
bath is cleanliness. The great In
portance OF abstersiOn, and the neces-
sity of keeping the skin clean and IN
its normal activity, will be more fully
appreciated when we consider the I'M
portance OF the function which the
skin has to perform. One-third OF all
the morbid matter in the system arls-
ing from tissue change is thrown OIL
through the skin, the other two-thirds
being excreted by the kidneys and
lungs.
The excretion through the skin is
accomplished by the action OF about
2, 500, 900 of little sweat glands. Each
Of these glands is surrounded by
plexus of blood vessels, aud has duct
extending to the surface, the average
length OF which is one-fourth OF an
inch. The aggregate length OF these
ducts As computed is about ten miles.
Think of it. A system OF human
sewerage ten miles in extent! The
deleterious effect upon the organism
caused by stoppage Of this great
system OF drainage will be perceived
at a glance. The effete matters OF
the body, which in state OF health
are excreted by the skin, nature now
| endeavors to get rid of through the
kidneys and lungs.
The effect on these organs OF the
great increase of functional activity
necessary to maintain the harmony be-
| 4
results in their disease, and the entire
system becomes deranged from the
poisonous effects of this accumulated
matter Then. too, in health respira-
ton is carried on, in a measure.
through the skin by the absorption OF
oxygen and the giving off OF carbonic
acid, thus aiding the lungs in their
interchange of gases; in this manner a
direct effect is produced upon these
organs by checking of the normal
activity Of the skin.
| For purposes of cleanliness the hot
bath will be found to be OF the great
est service Friction of the body with
soap will aid in dissolving and remoy-
ing the accumulated matter which fills
the mouths of the little ducts, and
leaves them open and free for the
egress of the natural secretions. This
bath should be followed by cold
shower to restore the tone to the skin
and avoid the depression which always
follows prolonged immersion in hot
water. Right here l wish to say a
word to deprecate the pernicious prac-
tice INDUCED in by many Of taking
frequent hot baths.
For the purpose just mentioned hot
bath is never necessary oftener thar
once or. at most, twice n week, pro
vided person takes a daily tepid OF
cold sponge bath, which should be in.
dulged in by every one as matter o.
health. Taken Oftener than this the
hot bath is enervatlng and depressing.
1t produces lowered state of vitality
which not only lowers the powers o
resistance to, disease. but may actually
induce disease by encouraging tn.

ginia would do as we'll as New York
or Indiana. The only thing that to-
day prevents the Republicans holding
the ''sure Republican" States OF 1883
would seem to be the issue of r. Q
silver coinage. On this issue Idaho,
Montana, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska.
North Dakota, South Dakota and
Nevada would to day certainly be
counted as silver States. If on the
issue o: free silver, in 1892. the Dem
ocrats should capture these R.publi
can States, representing thirty-eiyht
electoral votes, they would in all
probability lose New York, New Jer-
sey and Connecticut, or 6fty-two
electoral votes. 1t is clear that the
State of New York will be the great
background in 1892, as it was in
1898

without partisan dispute, the only OBJ
ction being that three or four States
