THE BATH.

Bathing aftor nap is injurious.
rough bnthng towel is better for any
kind of a bnth than II smooth one.
For protecting tho hair during q shower
bath or in large plunge II cap of water
proof silk is light and comfortable.
Tho rule is hot water for tho tub BATH
cold water for the shower bath and water of
normal temperature for tho plunge
1t is hardly necessary to remind tho
bnther TINT weakened digestion is tho ro-
suit Of bathing within an hour OF full
meal
II the tomperntur OF tho bath water is
either above or below normal, tho faoe-and
edgcs OF the hair should DO thoroughly
moistcnsd with the water before tho
plungsiis made.
One should never stay in tub bath
moro than ten minutes or III shower
bath over two. In u plunge bath ono may
safely stay 30 minutes, as the exercise pre-
vents bad effects.
A return from dusty trip or n rido in
the wind should be followed by hot
rather than Il cold bath. The escaping
steam induces perspiration, and tho hot
water washes ont the fino dust.
II one is contemplating the necessity Of
exposure TO sun or wind, "a cold wntor
bath is bCster than a warm one, as it
toughens the skin and makes IL flrmer in
its resistance to unfavorable conditions.

If Secretary Alger's plan of running a
locomotive sled over the ice in the Yukon
river tn carry supplies to suffering miners
ut Dawson City during the winter should
prove success it would solve one of the
most perpleXing problems connected with
the Klondke gold region and do much
towards increasing the supply of the yell
low metal in this country and Canada
Experts on Alaska and it's possibilities
are inclined to believe the secretary's
plan Is feasible one and that it can be
carried ont successfully during the COM
ing winter. AS matters now stand unless
relief is afforded the thousands now con-
gregated in and around Dawson City
many will probably die of starvation and
exposure before the return of summer.

ONE PEOPLE.

The prevalence of yellc " fever in New
Orleans, Mobile and other Southern cities
will be n serious drawback to the business
of the localities affected by the scourge
and comes at time when improved con-
ditons in all parts of the country render
it certain that the afflicted districts would
have received n full share of the accruing
benefits. 1t is the fate of humanity to
meet with misfortunes and rover es; but
it is comforting to the unfortunate peo-
lle now shut off from the rest of their
countrymen to know that they have the
sympathy of all and will not lack for food
or medicine while the fever lasts
One of the strongest evidences that this
country is one in sentiment and aspira-
tions is the unanimity with which all
sections rise to the assistance of those
visited by calamity in any locality. This
has been shown in the case of the Chicago
fire, the Memphis pestilence, the Charles
ton earthquake and other Affections of
lesser magnitude which have happened
in v..r ious parts of the Union since the
close of the civil war, and 1t was this
same spirit that caused Virginia and
other Southern States to espouse the
cause of Massachusetts when subjected to
British oppression.
Since then the country has grown from
thirteen to forty five States, and despite
he fact that a long and devastating civil
war threatened to break up the Union
and disrupt all fraternal relations, the
spirit of homogenity still survives and
grows stronger with every passing year.
From the Atlantic II the Pacific, from
the lakes to the gulf, from Manitoba to
the Rio Grande, the pulsating wires tell
Of q national life that tn robs thoroughly
in union with the brightest dreams OF the
founder of the republic, aawhen, with
prescience far in advance of the rest of
his countrymen, he saw the greatness of
the land his wisdom and patience had
helped to wrest from British rule, and
gloried in the name America as the great
est and best the people could ever hone 10
own.
So now when the fever threatens to
carry sorrow and death TO many southern
homes silent prayers in all parts of this
great country are being offered that the
people there may be spared this great
ailliction and an abiding and all pervad-
ing sympathy is ready TO answer any call
for aid that may come from the needy
and suffering.
Foreign nations may flatter themselves
that the wounds Of the late war have not
been healed; but the signal gun which
announces the :presence of an enemy on
American soil will be answered by the
rising up as one man, of the people oil
every section to the defense of the local
ity threatened. Blood is thicker than
water, and common ancestry, mutual
afilictions, mutual joys and mutual dis
appointments have brought us together
as one people in spite of past misunder-
standings ami arrangements.

The late rise in silver is attributed by
some to purchases for India, and to Lon
don rumors that the council of that coun-
try is buying for coinage. The deci-
sion of ths Bank Of England to holl one
fifth of its reserve in silver is also be.
lieved to influence .be market favorably.
The truth of the matter, however, as
President Diaz, of Mexico, in his recent

has been largely brought about by artfi-
cial causes, and sooner or later there will
be reaction.
