WATER AS A HEALTH CONSeRVAToR
It May BE Used Internally as Well as Ex'

It May BE Used Internally as Well as Ex-
ternaIIy with Good Results.
The internal Use of water is subject
about which physicians have had much
discussion, and about which not all doc
tors are agreed. It's value as an agency
for the prevention and removal Of dis
eased conditions is, therefore, too little
understood. Judiciously used, water taken
Internally may be made one Of the most
important factors in the preservation of
good health and physical vigor.
Nearly every case Of Inflammation and
irritation Of the bladder may by the prac-
tice Of copious water drinking, especially
on the empty stomach, be palliated to
such extent as to cease to give even annoy
ance.
Nothing that can be taken into the
stomach will better conduce to keep it and
the general system in healthy state than
pint of water about the summer temper
ature of hydrant water, drank from one
half TO three-quarters of an hour before
breakfast.
The first few swallows should be small
and within a few seconds intervals Of each
other, but tlH' last half should be taken in
as large gulps as possible, with the body
erect and chest well thrown out.
The principal benefit derivable from this
practice is perhaps the mechanical flushing
out of the undigested contents and the alb
sorption of the additional water into the
circulating system, although some of the
good effects may be attributable to the
small quantity Of the secretions of the
mouth, which isineideDtally carried down,
and the local tonic influence of the water.
Whatever may be the rationale of this
treatment It's efficacy as promoter and
preserver Of health is second to none. The
body should not be prone again for at least
three-quarters Of an hour after drinking.
The temperature Of the water may, as a
matter Of taste, be disagreeable at first,
but that objection will soon become insig-
nifcant before q little resolution. There
Is no situation in which frmness with ones
aisinclinations may be more proftably ap-
piled.
Very hot or very cold water should not
be taken upon an empty stomach. The
practice Of drinking hot water just before
meals, which prevailed extensively a short
while ago, has fallen into merited dlsre-
pute
The stomach does not until after long
time recover from the debiliating effects Of
n drink Of very hot water imposed upon il
while empty. Hence no food should be
taken into it Immediately after such q
draft.-New York Mail and Express.

A Inn Loving Seal.

The mother seal At the Zoo got rather
gay Sunday afternoon while big crowd of
ladies, gentlemen aud children was stand
ing around eagerly watching the baby
seal. The mother seal would watch and
see where the crowd was thickost, slide
quietly under the water, come up close as
possible 10 where the crowd was, and then,
with seemingly pure deviltry, jump up and
splash the water in such way ~ TO cover
and wet every one within tweRty Feet. And
it kept this sort OF fun up all the after.

Some time ago mention was made
about the protracted meeting at Whig

been holding meetings in the f. M.

NEWSY NOTES.

Porter Haskell of Main street, while
talking with friend yesterday just be-
fore dinner time, was taken by violent
case of hemorrhage of the nose, and two
physicians were called to administer the
proper remedies. In a short time he
was all right again.-Clarion Jacksonian.
1t is peculiar fact that for the first
time in a quarter of century barrel of
apples is worth more than barrel of
-four, and the relative difference prom
ises to prove larger before the year is
closed. Fair apples now retail at S5
barrel, while -four can be obtained fully
a dollar cheaper. 1t is also cheaper to
buy good oranges by the box than ap-
pies by the barrel.-Ex.
Advices by the steamer Belgic from
China, announced the complete annihila-
ton by earthquake of the town of Kutch-
an, Persia. Twelve thousand persons
were killed in the awful disaster. Ten
thousand bodies have been recovered to
date. The once important and beautiful
city of 10000 people is now only scene
of death, desolation and terror. Fifty
thousand cattle were destroyed at the
same time.
We all admire the beautiful hymn
NEARER my God, to Thee" Now ifyou
will take a bushel of potatoes, a sack of
flour and big chunk of meet to some
poor family, who are suffering for the
necesssries of life, it will bring you near
er to God than all the spiritual songs you
can sing for the next six months. The
songs are all right and exert agood intiu-
ence, but when mixed with charitable
deed the combination gives much peace
full rest to the conscious.
A few days ago Judge Doty of West
moreland county, Pa, decided in test
case that theatrical companies, exhibit
tions menageries, circuses, ETC., are re
quired under the law to pay license of
$50 in every county where they do busi-
ness, unless they have state license.
The decision is made on an old act Of AS
sembly which was passed in ls45, when
| the state was hard up for money, and
which has never been repealed. Its en-
forcement to the letter would play ha-
voc with most of the theatrical troupes in
this State and would make them very
scarce within our borders in future.
However, Attorney General Hensel and
the Auditor General have accepted Judge
Doty's ruling, and have instructed coun-
ty treasurers TO collect the $50 fee, ex-
cept where a State license is held. The
latter costs 81 900.
OF peculiar happenings, one occurred
right here in Bradford a few days ago,
that many say they have never heard the
like OF. Master James Lindsey a few
days since found in the front yard Of MIR.
