Something About the j. B. L.

Cascade.
And the Excellent Results Arrived at by
Its Use.
(From the NV York Mercantile and FL
nancial Times.)
Although it may scarcely be the pro-
vince of paper like ours to discuss the
science Of medication-a subject which
more properly belongs to the columns of
the medical journals-still, at the risk of
intruding upon their domain, we feel
justified in saying a few words in COM
mendation of the Hygienic system of
treating disease, by flushing the intestines,
and known as the J. B. L. Cascade Treat
ment'' introduced by Prof. Charles A.
Tyrrell, M. D., proprietor and manager
of Tyrrell's Hygiene Institute. The sys-
tenn is practically identical with that of
DR.. A. Wilford Hall. which is too well
known to call for extended description in
this place.
The essential feature in this compara-
lively new departure.of Hygiene consists
in what is known as the internal bath
that is, copious flushing of the large in
testines, or colon, with warm water to
which is added all antispeptic tonic, that
is claimed to possess wonderful remedi-
al virtue.
ut is estimated that fully a million
people are today practicing this truly Hy-
gienic method OF fighting disease in this
country alone, and with marvellous bene-
fit to themselves.
"The great drawback to this revolu-
tionary Hygienic system has hitherto been
the lack Of suitable means to carry it into
effect. The only appliances available have
been Of the most crude description, no in
ventive genius having deemed it worth
his while to devise Something more suita-
bic; but recently Prof. TyrreIl has in
vented an apparatus for the purpose which
is a marvel of mechanical ingenuity, yet
as simple as it is ingenious. 1t completely
removes all the Objectionable features that
have hitherto attended the treatment, and
renders it so easy to practice that any in
telligent child can accomplish it.
''With such an able coadjutor as the j.
B. L. Cascade just described, the flush
ing treatment should become one Of the
great successes Of the age, based as it is
upon purely hygienic principles, and con-
quering disease by the aid of natures
forces only. In cases OF dyspepsia, con-
stipation, catarrh, hemorhoids, and all
liver, kidney and stomach troubles it
works like charm.
There are but few among the readers
of this paper but might find it well to look
into the merits of this system for them
selves. 1t is unquestionably one of the
greatest discoveries ofthe age, and will be
so recorded in histories yet to be written" ;"
Full information as 10 treatment, ETC.,
is fully accorded to all who desire it, either
personally or by mail, on application.

The Same Old Story.

"But what's the object?"
"You are no doubt aware, answered
the young man, THAT I occasionally

"Yes, know" said the old man,

that you would some day see the error
of your ways and reform. But what has
that got to do with my spending the
afternoon with you?"

SLEEP AND DREAMS.

How Agassiz Worked Out Scientific
Problem rs Related by Himself.
The letters on sleep and dreams in
The Spectator remind me Of a case in
the experience of Agassiz, and which
he told me himself, though it is record
ed in his work on the American fishes.
He was studying a fossil fish in the
Jardin des Plantes, but had never been
able to determine the species to his sat
isfaGtion. After a time he dreamed that
he caught the very fish and without diff
ficulty determined the question, think
ing, as he woke from the dream, that
he would have no difficulty. But on
returning to the fossil something in the
dream had escaped him, and he could
no more determine the species than be-
fore.
The next night he had the same dream
and again forgot the essential point.
He then determined to take pencil and
paper with him to bed and make his
note as soon as he woke. The dream
came the third time, but to his surprise
ON fully awakening he found the draw
ing made and lying on the table bed side,
with three bones displayed in it which
were not visible in the fossil, and which
solved the problem. On returning to the
Jardin des Plantes he obtained permits
sion of his friend, the director, to chip
away a scale of stone which lay on the
spot where the bones were in the draw
ing, and found them there as his draw
ing had given them. 1t is 30 years since
Agassiz told me the incident, but those
who have access to his history of the
North American fishes will be able to
read it in his own words in the intro
duction and correct my version if my
memory has in any detail failed me-

Washington at Forty-three.

George Washington was 43 when he
drew his sword under the historic elm
at Cambridge as captain general and
commander in chief of the colonial
forces. He was just the age Of julius
Caesar when he took command of the
army in Gaul, Of Napoleon when he
made the mistake of his life and start
ed in to conquer Russia, and he was ten
years older than Alexander was when
he wept because there were no more
worlds to conquer. Charlemagne was
just his age when he overcame With
kind, the Saxon chief, and made all Ger
many Christian, and the captain gen.
eral of the continentals" was just as old
as was Constantine when he determined
to make himself master Of the world.
He was as old as Sesostris, the pharaoh,
when he conquered the Hittites and per-
secuted the children Of Israel; as Han
nibal when he gave up the hope of con-
quering Rome and left Italy to defend
Carthage against Scipio:

A Relic of Washington's Time.

At the foot of Wards heroic statue
of Washington on the high steps of the
subtreasury building is broad piece of
stone carefully covered with wire
grating. 1t is so placed that should the
image Of the immortal Father Of His
Country come to life and step down
from his lofty pedestal he would stand
on the same spot where occurred the
browning triumph of his career. Through
the protecting grating can be read the
following dim inscription, Standing
on this stone, in the balcony of Federal
hall, April 80, 1889, George Washing
ton took the oath as first president of
the United States of America. When
old Federal hall was demolished, the
sacred stone was carefully preserved,
and it now occupies as nearly as posi-
BILE the same position as before. Fewtbeo-
pie have ever noticed it on the high base
of the statue, where it is fittingly placed
as one of the relics of the nations birth.

detail, but they are hardly credited.
Washington was rather wary OF the sex
and is not thought to have exposed him.
self to suspicion or temptation.
A great point was made against his
connubial fidelity because there is rea-
son to think that his wife was bit
jealous. Jealous wives, it is well known,
have in all ages been oftener jealous
without cause than with cause. Martha
Washington has been nearly as much
idealized as her husband. She was in
no sense extraordinary. She was below
the medium size, very sociable, stub
born, hot tempered, overload, rather
pretty, without any excess of good sense,
independent of the rules Of spelling. per-
fectly we'll bred, polite and kind. When
only l6, he was while staying at Lord
Fairfax's sentimentally interested in
Mary Cary. He became enamored of
Mary Phillipse, aged %. daughter Of
Frederick Phillipse, one of the largest
landed proprietors of the New York COL
ony, but she declined Lis proposals. He
is declared by some to have been in
love with one of the friends of his
wife. He correspondent with her and
Sally Carlyle, another Fairfax daughter,
but they were only correspondents and
of the platonic kind. 1t is evident, how
ever from all the revealed circumstances
Of his early life that he was never in
danger of dying bachelor.
So much has been written of Wash
ington s campaigns that very little truth
has been told Of him as a man. While
not a military strategist-nor did he as
sumo to be-the Revolution was not con-
Quoted by strategy. The great problem
was to keep an army in the field. and
this Washington did. The British could
and did repeatedly beat the continental
army, though they could not beat their
commander: So long as he was in the
field he could get together all the fight
ing spirit there was. He was a natural
soldier, having inherited the disposition
from his Indian fighting great-grandfa-
ther and his elder brother Lawrence.
He was noted for fearlessness under all
circumstances and an outspoken scorn Of
aught like cowardice. Indeed he had
no comprehension of it. He was far
from faultless. He could and did swear
roundly OH occasion and had violent
temper, commonly under control, which
now and then burst all bounds. He had
the greatest self discipline. He seemed
calm and passionless, but his intimates
knew him as he was. He was in no
peril from spelling by goodness. Not
only was he one of the first great Amer
leans, but one of the stanchest of
stanch republicans, despite the con-
slant talk of his leaning toward mon
archy. JUN1Us HENRI BROWNE.
