A New York Doctor Presoribos Mixed Pop
tone, sherry and Cracked Ice.
A New York physician has originated
auovel preventive for seasiclness, which
has the advantage Of being simple and
seemingly sure. At all events, it was
tried with marked success upon q young
woman who is always affected by the
comparatively slight motion Of sound
steamers and railroad trains In her
case, after two doses, she was able TO
bear without Inconvenience the rolling
beyond Sandy Hook and the subsequent
tossings of the voyage.
The remedy is the administration
every half hour of two spoonfuls of pep
tone in sherry, cooled by pouring over
cracked ice. The theory of this is nc
less interesting than the dose itself. The
young doctor argues that the swallow
ing OF frequent small quantities Of pre-
digestcd and slightly stimulating food
produces q sedative effect upon the
stomach and countoraots tho jouncing
brought about by the inccssant and vio-
lent motion of a ship at sea.
Other doctors have quite lately in
vented a soasicknoss cure consisting of
cocaine or bromidcs, tho latter in large
doses these being given with the design
Of dulliug the stomach, as 10 wcro, and
go preventing nausea. But it cannot Be

or Drnllv I,rrasr.


The loss of ppro air, sunshine and
other free goods and their effect on tho
physique of city dwollors are not ado
quatciy compensated by hygionio re-
forms Of town life itself, while the in
creased number and comploxiiy of SEN
saiious impose % greater strain upon the
nervous system. Tho nervous dcgoncra-
tion which thus accrues may perhaps bo
checked in time by further hygionic inn
provemCnt of the town and by gradual
rcadjushnent between the nervous sys-
tenn and it's changed environment But
meantime grave physical injuries arise
directly from those very economic
changes which have raised the economic
condition Of the great mass of the work
ers and have probably reduced the
quantity Of purely economic poverty.
When we reflect chat the physical in-
juries of town life, attestod by tables Of
mortality and impaired muscular activ-
ity, fan most heavily upon the poor, we
shall see grave reasons Of industrial and
social life are generally favorable TO the
physical vitality of the low paid worker
or the residuum-that is to say, whether
he gets any net vital advantage out Of
the higher rate Of real wages which be
obtains when he is working,
Whom we also hear in mind that each
year a higher proportion Of She workers
are living in large towns, where the
duration of life is about o Der cent less
than in the country, and that the age Of
enforced retirement from regular wage
earning is, by reason of the strain OF
competition and the regulations Of trade
organizations, considerably earlier than
it was formerly, and that an increased
irregularity of employment is discerni.
bic in many Of most trndcs, we may
hold it doubtful whether tho avcrag,
worker of the lower order makes "a tota
life wage which is amy higher than b,
rnade formerly. Tho conclusion applied
by Charles Booth to the whole body o.
workers that ''in one way OF anothe
effective working life is ten years longe
in the country than in town" has al
