Sea Water as Medicine.

When a bather at Coney Island the
other day accidentally swallowed a big
gulp of sea water and thee rushed of to
get drink of whisky to take the taste
out of his mouth, a successful medical
practitioner who had witnessed the per-
formance said:
THAT man is either q greenhorn or q
fool. Otherwise he would have taken
merely sip of lemonade and allowed
the sea water to do its work. AS mat
ter of fact, one of the most beneficial fea-
lures of a sea bath Is the salt water in
advertently swallowed by bathers. tits
a wonderful tonic for the liver, stomach
and kidneys. In many cases it will cure
biliousness where all drug preparations
have failed. 1t is peculiarly effective in
ordinary cases of indigestion, disordered
stomach and insomnia, and has been
known to produce excellent results in
many cases of dyspepsia. Sea water is
full of tonic and sedative properties. It
won't hurt anybody. Two or three big
swallows of it would be of positive bene-
fit to nine bathers out of ten. 1t isn't
palatable or tempting, but neither is
quinine or calomel. You never see an
old sailor who is bilious, dyspeptic or a
victim of insomnia, and why? For the
reason that an ocean Of good medicine
spreads all about his ship, and he doses
himself copiously with it whenever his
nhysical mechanism becomes the least
bit deranged. New York Herald.

Horses With Four White Feet.

In France, and I believe in European
countries, it is most ominous sign fora
rider, and especially soldier, to want
a horse with four white feet. The IA
nous general, Lasalle, who was very su.
perstitious upon this point, never know
ingly mounted such horse. The day
of his death, after several ominous events
which had happened to him that day,
such as broken mirror, a broken pipe,
the picture of his wife broken at the
very moment when he went to look at it
for the last time, he mounted a horse
not his own without glancing at the
feet. The horse had the unlucky signs.
Mounted upon this horse. he was struck
