NEW YORK, March l3.--R. G. Dun &

feeling. Directly the effect here should
be slight, but IL Is impossible TO say
how the already strained condition at
London and the possible serious pres.

The prospect for new railroad build
ing and consequently for rail production
is not helped by the monetary situation
and stocks have been considerably
weakened. But there is moro active
speculation In breadstuffs, pork pro-

MINERAL WATERS.
Special Value of Their Various Ingre-

Special Value OF Their Various Ingre-

parts Of the earth, each differing from the
other, more or less in the character guam.
tity and combination Of the constituents.
Indeed. as at Saratoga, there may be es.
senial differences In the waters Of springs
at but a short distance from each other
The principal constituents are soda,
magnesia. lihe, iron and Eihium, combin-
ed with various acids. In some there is
sembles the manufactured carbonated wa
Ter Of our so-called soda fountains.
There may be, also, In smaller quantities,
one OF more Of q dozen other minerals.
Some springs are hot, and their tempera.
ture increases their value, especially for
bathing purposed.
The springs generally contain a mixture
Of several mineral constituents. but they
are classified according 10 the predominant
one, which, In the main, determines the
class Of cases to which the water is suited,
though It's action Is modified by that Of the
lesser ingredients.
In one class. the chief ingredient is com.
mon salt-chloride Of sodium. Since salt
enters into the tissues Of the body, and
largely into the gastric Juice, il must have
important therapeutical uses. II stimu.
lalcs the action of the stomach and bowels
and the general circulation. In this class
OF springs, the action Of the salt is usually
modified by carbonic acid, which Is also
found In them.
The water Of second class Of springs Is
alkaline. and has carboraie of soda-which
differs not greatly from our cooking soda
for its chief ingredient. This, too. IS a
constituent Of the body. and the water aids
in digestion, corrects acidity. favors the
action Of the kidneys, and helps TO pro-
mote vital changes In the system. The
doses Of all alkalies should be small

Teeth and Hair Not INDISPENSABLE,

With US there is, to say the least, a
strong and decided prejudice in favor of
luxuriant tresses and pearly teeth. But
it is only a prejudice, and by no means
universal. We see no lack of beauty in
the infants naked, rosy scalp, or in its
sweet little toothless mouth. We even
see a kind of majestic beauty in the ivory
dome that covers the sage's busy brain.
A white, shining billiard ball is by no
means unpleasing to the eye, and no n
can fancy its beauty improved by cover
ing half of it with a coat of hair, how
ever soft and silky, lustrous, brown or
golden. Birds had teeth once; how
should we welcome a prospect of the re-
turn, a retrogression, to their former
s~emi-reptiliant conditions Would you
think your canary or your brilliant-hued
coekatoo improved in its appearance if
the smooth, even edges of its bill were
garnished with saw of pearly teeth like
a little feathered and winged alligator
The possession of a full complement of
teeth has always been regarded as an in
dispensable condition of perfect health.
70 orr prehistoric ancestors, who had no
other grain mills than their molars, it
must have been so, and the modern sol
der in active service would find his
bareback and leathery salt beef rather
unsatisfactory fare without the dental in
tegrity which the examining surgeon so
properly insists upon. But the constant.
ly improving science of cookery supplies
the remedy for the civilian, and as to the
soldier, he is, like his teeth, a relic of
u~ndeveloped civilization. The stdogs OF
war; must go, teeth and all. Experience
has demonstrated that the luxurious diet
of civilization, which gives so little for
the teeth to do, is, on the whole, more
conducive to vitality and longevity than
the hard fare of savagery. Long before
toothless gums shall have become the
rule all occasion fer teeth will have
passed, either for beauty or use.-Nortb

An Obliging Young Indian.

Two young women were alone o. day
when a young Indian brave whom they
knew came to see the mar of the houses,
says a Yankton IN. d. letter to the
Springfield Republican. The man was
away and the Indian sat down to wait
for him. During this interval the girls,
being of a lively turn, began asking him
questions about his former mode of life;
among other things they asked him to
give a war-whoop and show them how
he scalped people, but he gave 40 an
swer. Some time after when they were
talking of other subjects, and had for
gotten all about him, he sprang up sud-
denly, gave a ~war-whoop that made the
house-top ring; then snatching his big
knife that lay on the table with one
hand, he took the topknot of one Of the
girls in the other, and ran the back of
the knife around her scalp. They were
each scalped in this manner and were
nearly frightened out of their wits, but
he sat down and began to laugh and told
them he had only done what they asked
him to do. They soon recovered from
the shock and laughed heartily at the
Indians joke.

Mrs. Sarah M. Black of Seneca,
Mo, during the past two years has
been affected with Neuralgia of the
Head, Stomach and Womb, and
writes: "My food did not seem to

tite was very variable. My face
was yellow, my head dull, and | had
such pains in my left side. In the

have a flow of mucus in the mouth,
and a bad, bitter taste. Sometimes

all day under the shoulder blades,
in the left side, and down the back

SpOnge Ont Headache.

The ordinary nervous headache will be
greatly relieved and in many cases en-
tirely cured by removing the waist of
ones dress, knotting the hair high up on
the head out of the way and, while lean
ing over a basin, placing a sponge
soaked in water as hot as it can be borne
on the back of the neck.
Repeat this many times, also applying
the sponge behind the ears, and the
strained muscles and nerves that have
caused so much misery win be felt to re-
lax and smooth themselves out delicious
ly, and very frequently the pain prompt
ly vanishes in consequence.
Every woman knows the aching face
and neck generally brought home from a
hard days shopping or from q long
round of calls and afternoon teas.
She regards with intense dissatisfac-
ton the heavy lines drawn around her
eyes and mouth by the long strain on the
facial muscles, and when she must carry
that worn countenance to some dinner
party or evenings amusement, it robs
her of all the pleasure to be had in it.
Cosmetics are not the cure, nor bro,
mides nor the many nerve sedatives to
be had at the drug store.
Use the sponge and hot water again,
bathing the face in water as hot as it can
possibly be borne; apply the sponge ove
and over again to the temples, throat
and behind the ears. where most of the
nerves and muscles of the head center,
and then battle the face in water running
cold from the faucet. Color and smooth
ness of outline come back to the face, an
astonishing freshness and comfort is the
result, and if a nap of ten minutes can
follow every trace of fatigue will van
ish.
The same remedy is invaluable for
sunburn, and the worst case of this lat
ter affection of sensitive skins will uc-
cumb to the hot-water treatment. The
cold douche should not follow in this
case; instead a light application of vas
cline of cold cream, which prevents
peeling of the skin, as the not water pre-
vented Inflammation.
Nothing SO good for tired eyes has
yet been discovered as bathing them in
hot water, and neuralgia nine cases out

padded saddles and across these rests an
iron bar. The pole of the cart rests on
this, being fastened by clumsy iron bolts.
The whole arrangement is clumsy, but
it is claimed to be well adapted to bang
ing over rocky roads.
There is a constant whining around
gorges and cutting the edges Of preci-
piees. A modern wagon would be en-
tirely unserviceable, as the roads IN
India have a peculiar jolting effect on
wagons which our bolted and iron con-

WISE R

There is no substitute for success
ChasssHaSS' frequently should begin at
other peoples homes.
The true heroes are those heroic in the
trades of everyday life.
The good who die young have a great
deal to be thankful for.
Grown people feel the truth, but it is
the children who tell it.
Ii q woman can deceive another woman
she can succeed at anything.
If fathers could be sons to themselves
what good sons they would be.
Virtue If It's own reward. but vice
will bring cdrses from q dozen sources.
It Is no crime to be poor, but in the
eyes OF many people it is rank felony to
be rich.
When the fires of youth go out in a
man he wonders that they burn in
others.
It takes very little to make q woman
happy; it takes much less to make hef

When summoned to the bar of final
Judgment no pleas of ''not guilty. will

Death stills the tongues of a mans de-
tractors, but it seldom changes their
convictions.
He who refuses to fight and holds his
temper rarely fails to defend himself
when attacked.
Most men think they could succeed
better in what they like TO do than iu
what they have to do.
A death bed repentance is like paying
a debt after you're sued; it's only q few
removes from moral dishonesty.
Philosophy has used the candle OF
speculation instead Of the sun Of Truth
for SO many years that its eyesight is
practically ruined.
It Is more blessed to give than to re-
ceiye simply because the giver can
squeeze no end of contentment out of the
contemplation Of his own generosity.
