"Not All persons when they die arc

"All this talk about death, apparent
death, and premature burials bring MS
down TO one vital question, How long
could life be maintained in q coffin?
An experiment on dog in a coffin
showed that the animal lived five or
six hours. A body in an ordinary
coffin gets only three or four cubic
feet of air, and that would keep one
alive only fifteen or twenty minutes.
So those who trouble themselves about
being buried when only apparently
dead may rest assured that, if such an
improbability were realized they
would not live to hear the last hymn
sung at their funeral New York

The Salt Habit,

The use of salt as a Condiment is so
general and so universally believed in
as necessary that we rarely hear
word against its excessive use, but
there are a multitude of persons who
eat far too much salt-eat it on every
thing, on meat fish, potatoes, melons,
in butter on tomatoes turnips and
squash, in bread and on a host of foods
too numerous to mention. To SO great
an extent is it used that no food is
relished which has not a salty taste
and this hides more or less the real
taste, which is often very delicate.
Now, the amount of salt required III
the system is comparatively small, and
if the diet has been rightly compound
ed very little is necessary. Some go so
far as to discard its use altogether,
but whether this is wise or not we will
not here consider What are some of,
the evils of the excessive use of salt?
They are to paralyze the nerves of
taste, or to pervert them so they can
not enjoy anything which has not a
salty flavor, and in addition there is
a direct tax on both the skin and the
kidneys in removing it from the blood
Whether the skin is harmed by this
tax we do not know Possibly it is not
greatly injured, yet we know that few
people possess a healthy skin; but it
is now pretty well settled that an ex-
| Cessive use Of salt does overtax the
! kidneVS in its removal and that the
great number of cases of arrangement
and disease of these organs is due to
this use. It only takes a little time
to learn to enjoy many kinds of food
without salt, and we advise our read
era and others to look into this matter
and try and diminish the use of this
.condiment so far as possible. We be-
'lieve they will be better for it.-Jour-
nal Of Hygiene, New York
The Camden chronicle. (Camden, Tenn.) 1890-current, 1897-12-10

The New York Observer believes
cit will be satisfaction to Christian
people. to note that the famous strike
of the laborers employed by Lord
Penrhyn in his large slate-quarries
has now at last been settled, and that
his lordship has admitted the right of
the employees as local body to adopt
as their own the grievances Of an in
.dividual workman or class Of workmen.
This last point is not, we rejoice to
feel, longer an open question in
America. Lord Penrhyn has yielded
his old world ideas very reluctantly
on this issue; nor is it clear, indeed,
that he has yet gone so for as to deal
directly with outside trades union
officials. This unfortunate Penrhyn
controversy, which has been carried
on for nearly year, has inflicted
severe loss on his lordship and great
priyation and suffering on his men.
The latter have all along received
much moral and financial support
from outsiders. OF the whole body OF
the House of Commons, only two
members have ventured to defend
Lord Penrhyn in his arbitrary course,
who, as an English journal remarks,
has tried to manage a great industry
under the forms and spirit of feudal-
ism. The experiment has cost him,
on his own admission, something like
$500, 600, and it has failed. 1t is not
likely to be repeated.

There is a free-and-easy assumption
that modern journalism, so called, is
responsible for the rush to the Klon-
dixie. Those who make this curious
blunder seem to be quite unaware of
the fact that there was a rash TO the
gold fields of California nearly fifty
years ago, by the side of which that
