Some Of the fncts recently brought to
light on the philosophy of bathing are as in
teresting as they are important, and special
mention may be- made of the Investigations
in this line by NJ. Wertheimer Of Paris and
now communicated by him to the public.
He shows that a sensation Of cold on the
skin acts on the circulation Of the lower
part Of the trunk-that is 10 say, on the
veins, and also on the brain-in the same
way as IA mechanical or electrical stimulus
of the sensitive nerves Of the skin. This
observation, It is declared, affords an ex-
PLANTATION of the fact that a sudden INNER
sion of the body in cold water after n meal
and while the process Of digestion is going
on, may be attended with danger. At such
a time the abdominal system is the seat Of
intense physiological congestion, and the
accumulation Of blood in il is suddenly
thrown back toward the nervous centers,
and the consequence may be a disorder re
sulting in death.-New York Tribune.

Jesus Paid 1t All.

Mr.. Editor Please kindly print the
following from one who feels it duty to
say few words in this column.
1t seems to me that it ought to grieve
every true Christian who reads in your
last issue the poem Jesus Paid it AL"
although the original is grand old hmm
and Jesus will surely "wash us white as
snow" if we only ask Him to as we ought
As l recently heard noted man say,
"God never has and never will clear the
guilty." still if we are truly humble and
penitent, and willing to forsake our sins,
Jesus will stand between us and God so
that our sins win be all washed away by
His own precious blood. If we wilfully
and knowingly sin, and still, pretend to
be religious, and even perhaps hide our
sins almost entirely from the eyes of
men, then at the final judgement we shall
for if we have been hypocrites here on
earth instead of Jesus paying all our
debts He will say to us depart from me
We cursed into everlasting fire prepared
for the devil and his angels" Would not
all of us much rather hear the words,
"Come, We blessed of my Father, inherit
the kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the world?" Now in reply
to Socinian will say from good authori
ty that in Gen. 80, 80; it means just what
it says, but it was God in human form
that Jacob saw and therefore he was rot
overwhelmed, as it was supposed they
must be who beheld His divine glory. In

Life In Colombia.

A man and his wife and child, with
three servants and three mules, can live
in Colombia and pay all expenses, in
Guiding maize and sugar cane for the
beasts, for G10 month. En- revanchc,
bedroom candles are ~ pence each and
petroleum 8s. Cd. a gallon, and it must
be admitted that clothing is an awful
price. White drill, linen and brown
holland can be got at very big prices.
Good calico there is none, and the print
is like paper. Boats are we'll nigh un-
attainable luxuries, and pair of can
vas shoes for a 2-year-old boy cost 4
shillings However, as it really does not
matter what one wears in this most un
sophisticated region, the want of fash
ionable attire is not SO awful as it
might be.
The latest mode in bonnets, par ex-
ample, is a thing with which we have
absolutely no concern. Nothing is ever
seen here but sugar loaf hats made of
the very finest straw. The sight of a
lady ON her travels is startling to the
unintiated. Imagine her seated ON a
small mule, with long, flowing habit,
put on over the dress, her head and
body covered with large sheet for the
sake Of GOODNESS, merely the head show
ing; sugar loaf hat and small para
sol as the crowning effort of elegance =

Sleep and Long Life.

Sleep as prolonger Of life is upheld
by curious calculation which appeared
In a recent medical work on the digest
i've organs and faculties. The duration
Of human life may be asoertained By
the pulsations of the body. Say man
lives to 10 years, his heart beating go
to the minute, the pulsations in that
time foot up to 2,207, $40, 900. If by in
temperance or any other cause he raises
pulsation to 70 minute, the same num-
Der Of pulsations would be finished in
90 years, thereby abbreviating his life
by IA years. And as the number Of pull
sations is less in a sleeping than in q
waking state it stands to reason that a
long sleeper has much better prospect
Of long life than person who is salts
fed with short maps. Napoleon /, who
slept very little, did not attain old age.
General Butler, who could sleep at will,
rounded out good ripe sheaf Of years.
Chicago Post

Ended In a Laugh.

For repeating to General Butler, then
in command Of the Army of the James,
a disparaging remark made by subor-
dinate concerning the generals military
efficiency an officer in Pennsylvania
regiment was promised a sound thrash
ing by the officer whom he had reported,
and who, in consequence, had suffered
bad quarter of an hour in the gen.
erals society. The thrashing was to be
bestowed after the war was over, at
their very first meeting, no matter I'M
der what circumstances it might occur.
The two officers became prominent
civilians in adjoining states. For many
years one of them went around armed
with revolver, the other with blank
bail bond. Though often in this city
(where one Of them resided) at the same
time, they never met until last Saturday,
and then they encountered each other
face to face in the surf at Atlantic City.
Each had grown SO stout as to weigh
over $50 pounds, yet they instantly rec
ognized each other. Something ludi-
crous in the thought of such vast spheres
of flesh engaged in rough and tumble
fight may have entered their minds at
the same moment, for they called each
other by name, smiled and shook hands.
The feud was thus terminated. -Phila-
delphia Record.

How Fortunes Are Made.

The largest fortunes of the present
day have been acquired by applying an
acute and enterprising mind to the i'm
provement of the conditions of life.
Some Of the largest among them may be
traced to the extension of the railroad,
telegraph and telephone systems, to the
sewing machine, to the automatic agri-
cultural machines, to the application Of
electricity to mechanics, to new appli-
cations of chemistry to manufactures.
Henry Bessemer, who discovered a
way to convert carbureted iron into
steel, was type. He rendered it posi-
BILE to gridiron this country with steel
rails, and Of course he became mil
lionaire. Any young man who will de-
wise method Of making an article OF
general use at less than the present cost
or of making it better in quality at the
same cost will make fortune, as he did
The article need not be an important
one SO long as 1t is generally consumed.

Here's choice morsel from the
st. Adams Messenger, Sept. 9Th:
"For the magnitude of the Repub-
lican victory in yesterdays election
the Republican state committee, I'M
der the efficient leadership of Chair
man DIN Merrill of this county, are
entitled to the gratitude of the Re-
publicans of other states as we'll as
Vermont.
If that isn't cuckooism pure and
simple what, in the name of reason,
would be? 1t is notorious fact,
known to every intelligent person
in the state, that this State CON-
mittee did nothing in the world to
further Republican success, more
than to send out circular letter to
town committeeman, stating that if
towns did so and so the majority
would be $4,000. If there was any,
thing like organization anywhere in
the state it was effected through town
committees or the result of labor by
earnest Republicans in the ranks.
SO notorious was this fact that it
was a matter much commented on
and many brains were cudgeled for
the reason. AS to this latter mapv
believe that this supineness resulted
from fear of hurting the feelings of
the distinguished warrior that now
dlshonors the gubernatorial chair of
Vermont. This man was elected, in
Presidential year, by about II, 900
majority and to have this beaten in
an off year would have been too bad.
in the opinion of the Fuller cuckoos.
But thanks to the steadfastness of
the Republican rank and file and the
indifference of the opposition party,
this majority is exceeded by about
10000, Notwithstanding the State
committee and its chairman Merrill.
