A sea bath is to most persons exceedingly
agreeable and refreshing, says an expert
and. when judiciously employed, a medic
inal agent of great value; but. like all other
medicinal agents, It may be productive OF
good or bad results, depending upon the
condition of the one who takes the bath and
his manner of taking it. To the GONZALES
cent, impatient for delayed strength; to the
inland dweller whose devotion to business
pursuits or housewifely cares has resulted
In feeble health and nervous bankruptcy,
and to all overworked in mind and body,
no measure, when discreetly used, so surely
brings vigor and rest as a sojourn at the
seashore and daily plunge into the salt
water. Though not every ones experience
in sea bathing has been agreeable, and per
haps to some it has proved positively harm
full, it can be asserted that in nearly all
such cases the unsatisfactory results are
due to some indiscretion Of the bathor OF
misconception of the principles that should
guide one in resorting to sea baths for san
itary purposes.
Sea bathing is a more powerful toni,
than the ordinary cold bath. The stinIula
ton Of the cutaneous surface by the dis
solved salt, the changing and cooler cur
rents of air, the impact of the waves upon
the body and the mental effect OF the un
usual surroundings combine to press the
system very forcibly. While such cOndi
tions may have depressing effect upon
one who is unaccustomed to them, they are
highly bracing and stimulating to him who
is strong enough to make sea bathing safe

OF all tho 10 appointments under the
sergeant-at-arms Of the United States SEN
ate those of the pages only can be said to be
nonpolitcal. No boy can be appointed
page of the senate who is not IL years of
age, and no boy can continue as page who
is 16 years of ags at the beginning of ses-
sion of congress. 1t is n lucrative position,
and few Of the boys are not sorry when their
term has ended. Usually four of the boys
who are graduated from the pages position
Mt the beginning of a session are appointed
riding pages. Their selection depends on
their records for efficiency and faithfulness.
The page on the floor of the senate draws
$3.50 a day during the session of congress.
The riding page receives 81. so a day the year
around and has horse to ride His duties
keep him out of doors great part of the
time, carrying messages between the CAPT
tol and the departments. The position is
considered more desirable than that of a
page.
The pages life Is pleasant one He
must be on duty at O'Clock each morning,
but the serious business of the day does not
begin until noon, when the senate meets.
Before that time he arranges the files of the
Congressional Record and the bills and re
ports on the desks of the senators who have
been assigned to him. There are 1G pages
and SIS senators, so none of the pages has
very much to do. Tho morning hours arc
not all working hours. There is a gymna-
SUM in the basement of the capitol fur
nished especially for their use. They ex-
ercise their arms and their chests there
every morning; their legs get plenty of ex-
ercise through the day.-Washington Star.

WHEN PILOTS wrhL rniNurs.
Salaries Once Were Equal to Those of
Modern Hallway Presidents.

Salaries Once Were Equal to Those of
Modern Railway Presidents.
Very interesting are the "reminiscences
from steamboatmen of ante rate cutting
days, when pilots received wages enough
in week TO buy an entire steamboat at
the present quotations on secondhand
boats. money easily earned is easily
spent" and Captain Joe Todd tells of the
pilot who received 1880 for a trip to the
upper Missouri and then came down in
the winter to borrow money from us poor
fellows who worked for sT5 month"
Several of these old river pilots, whose
vacations entitled them to the largest div
idend Of the robust earnings of the boats,
are still about the city. but unfortunately
very few now give evidence of ever having
commanded such magnificent salaries,
The Missouri river appears to have been
the scene of operations in which meteor
ic" wages were paid to pilots. The elocu-
tionary artists who ARE doing time"
around the Office stoves sometimes quote
old time pilots wages as high as 5000 a
month without producing proofs.
From those who were actively engaged
in the service it is learned that e., 500 a
month was the highest regular wages ever
paid to Missouri river pilots. Pilots. how
ever, were frequently engaged for a trip to
Leavenworth, Sioux City and Fcrt Sully ut
wages proportionately higher than these
figures.
Captain William r. Massey, a veteran
Missouri river steamboat man, stated yes
terday that he had often known 81, 500 to
Re paid to pilot on q trip between st
Louis and Omaha, occupying from ID to Is
days.
The palmy days for steamboating on the
Missouri river were from 1854 to 1860 in
which the pilots were paid salaries like
those of railroad presidents at the present
day, but spent their money about 10 times
as fast. A well known steamboat man in
st. Louis now Is said to have been offered
one-fourth interest in a steamboat, val
ued at about sos 900, by ono of the Doziers
for wages as pilot on trip to Fort Benton.
Fifteen hundred dollars was also frequent
ly paid for plotting a boat from st. Louis
to Leavenworth and back, occupying about
nine days.-Exchange

A treatment recommended by NJ. Dour
douki of Moscow has the merit OF being
both original and simple. While examin
ing one day patient complaining of afro
cious headache he used percussion OF the
Uranium, Just as is done for the chest, H.
ascertain whether there was any apparent
material lesion. Twoor three minutes Rft
er finishing his examination he was greatly
astonished to hear his patient say that his
headache had completely disappeared. This
method of treatment has succeeded in his
hands whenever there was no material cause
for headache
The percussion must be made lightly
with only one or two fingers, without pro
ducing any disagreeabie sensation, but IN
creasing gradually the intensity of the taps
In this way a sort OF yibratory massage is
administered, which removes the distress
ing symptom. 1t is evident that this relief
can only be momentary and that the cause
must he discovered in order to be sure to
cure the headache. The same means is eff.
cacious in muscular pain in ne. us, I'M.
pressiouable people. 1t is at any rate easy to
try, and, according to the cid saying, can /
do any harm, even il it don't cure New

The habit of what is called flirting, which
some young men and women indulge in, i
severely condemned by The Peoples Jour
nal:
1t is through Irritation, which has advaug
ed to something like fine art, that many
marriageable young folks lose their chance
In life. Filtration destroys confidence be
tween the persons who indulge in It: it
prevents the natural growth OF mutual es.
TEEN; 1t is not a thing OF good faith. 1t is
an error to suppose that lovemaking and
Irritation are identical; they are, in truth,
antlthetical. Lcvemakipg is tender aud
ennobling, while filtration is cruel. foolish
and demeaning. The one IL the prelude to
welded happiness; the other is inimical to
IL. Young men and women should exercise
their reason while on the lookout for suit.
able life partners, yet many Of them give
encouragement TO flirtsrs, silly firters, who
are taken up or thrown on, with results
that are often grievous indeed.

Gambetta, prior to the overthrow Of the
empire, was addressing the court in behalf
of prisoner when suddenly he perceived
that the presiding judge was visibly doz-
ing He paused for a minute, and then,
bringing down his fist with terrible
thump on the desk in front Of him, he
shouted In his most resonant and clarion
like voice, "As | was saying before the
awakening of the courtl' This apostrophe
was Immediately punished by the indig-
nant judge suspending the young lawyer
from practicing his profession for period
of two months.
Less energetic yet equally effective. was
Maitre Rousse, who, having likewise OBJ
served that the presiding magistrate was
indulging in a nap, suddenly stopped talk
ing. The prolonged silence. which lasted
four minutes, had the effect Of awakening
the judge, and as soon as he opened his eyes
Maitre Rouse made profound bow and
resumed his speech as follows "As was
saying, Messieurs de la Cour, at your last
audience, laying special stress on the word
"last." The rcproof was SO delicate that
everybody smiled, even including the judge
himself.-San Francisco Argonaut.

1t is one of the anomalies of modern hotel
life that the more you pay the less you ex-
pect in return. In the huge caravansaries
of the large American cities, where a man
pays SIS u week for n room without board,
he never thinks of asking any service of the
employees without paying literally for it.
He is charged for n fire, for light after
midnight, for the use of the telephone, for
sending out message by an Office boy, for
taking lunch in his room, for corkage on
his own wines and must tip the walters
In a country hotel, where he pays GO week,
with board, he can have fire in his room
when he wants it, he can trust the landlord
to send letters and messages, he can smoke
all over the house, he can borrow anything
from gun to a pair of trousers, he can get
the landlady to mend his torn coat, he can
call for breakfast at o'clock in the morn
ing and get it, and he has to tip nobody.

The donkey in Algeria rarely has sad

on which the beSpangled queens of the saw
dust ring dance their short hour to delighted
boys and rustics. The pad has no stirups
aud is so wide rs to make seat on it ex-
tremely firing to the uninitiated. The Arab
sits astride or sidewise, and as the pad is
rarely girthed, or at best by slender rope
it is like walking II tight rope or managing
a birch bark canoe TO sit on it until you
Catch on" Between this pad, which serves
equally for loading or riding, and the saddle
of the Spahi there is n vast category of sizes
and styles, all, however, much too wide. A
pair of stirrurs is often improvised by tying
two bags together, putting them across the
pad, turning in one corner and thrusting the
foot into the pocket thus made. The flimsy
pretext for saddle or harness used all over

The old fashioned southern houses! Some
of them are left still. You see them here
and there ms you 60 about Houston; splen-

hospitality about them. In the midst Of
the modern buildings these lovely old
homes give you feeling of pleasure-iust
such feeling as you have when you meet a
gentleman of the old school, with his re-
fined and courtly bearing. What vision

once made every one of these homes the
center Of pleasure and cultured You have
but to close yourey and you can see again
the merry crowds that used to assemble
there, and up from the past come floating

I lately made the discovery that by tear
ing bit off one corner of my notebook /
could put my thumb nail on the corner of
the first page on which l wanted to write
and open to it at once without lingering to
separate that page and the cover. 1t fol-
lowed us corollary that when the first
page was written full the exposed corner of
that page could be torn off in the same
manner and the second page opened to
with equal readiness and SO on. l think
this idea may be found useful where one
turns several times to one page before writ
ing on the next, as on notebooks, account
books, etc A gentleman to whom / ex-
planned the idea suggested that books
might be made with perforations across
one corner, so that the tear might be easier
and neater.-Cor. Writer.

TREATMENT OF PRISONERS M 1865.
English and Spanish Soldiers Taken In
Battle Horribly Tortured.

English ana spanish soidiers IaKcn IN
Battle Horribly Tortured.
In the summer of 1868 eight English mer-
chantmen anchored in the roads at Gibral-
tar. England and France were then at war.
A French brig came in after them and
brought up near. At sea, II they could
take her, she would have been lawful
prize. Spaniards under similar circum-
stances had not respected the neutrality Of
English harbors. The Englishmen were
perhaps in doubt what TO do when the off
GERS of the holy office came off to the
French ship. The sight of the black famil-
lars drove the English wild. Three of them
made dash at the French ship, intending
to sink her. The inquisitors sprang into
their boat and rowed for their lives. The
castle guns opened, and the harbor police
put out to interfere. The French ship, how
ever, would have been taken, when unluck-
lily Alvarez de Bacan, with Spanish squad
ron, came around into the straits. Resist
ance was impossible.
The eight English ships were captured
and carried off to Cadiz The English flag
was trailed under De Bacan's stern. The
crews, 2i0 men in all, were promptly con-
demned to the galleys. In defense they
could but say that the Frenchman was an
enemy, and moderate punishment would
nave Sullceu lOr II violation Oh tne narDOr
rules which the Spaniards themselves so
little regarded. But the inquisition was
memorable, and the men were treated with
such peculiar brutality that after nine
months 90 only of the $40 were alive.
Ferocity was answered by ferocity. Lis
ten to this: The Cobhams of Cowling cas-
tie were Protestants by descent. Lord Cob
ham was famous in the Lollard martyr
ology. Thomas Gotham, one of the family,
had taken to the sea, like many of his
friends. While cruising in the channel he
caught sight of a Spaniard on the way from
Antwerp to Cadiz, with 40 prisoners on
board, consigned. it might be supposed, to
the inquisition. ..-..
They were Of course inquisition prison
ers, for other offenders would have been
dealt with on the spot. Gotham chased
her down into the Bay of Biscay took her,
scuttled her and rescued the captives. But
that was not enough. The captain and
crew he sswed up in their own mainsail
aud flung them overheard. They were
washed ashore dead wrapped in their ex-
traordinary winding sheet. Gotham was
called to account for this exploit, but he
does not seem to have been actually pun
ished In very short time he was out and
away again at the old work. There were
plenty with him.
