How TO prinh water.

There are few people, we think, who
thoroughly realize the value of water
as a beverage or who know how to OBJ
tain the greatest advantage from it.
The effects produced by the drinking Of
water, as pointed out by our excellent
contemporary, Health, vary with the
manner in which it is drunk. If, for
instance, pint of cold water be swal-
lowed as large draft, or if it be taken
in two portions with short interval
between, certain definite results follow
effects which differ from those which
would have resulted from the same
quantity taken by slipping. Slipping is
a powerful stimulant to the circulation,
a thing which ordinary drinking is not.
During the act of slipping the action
of the nerve which shows the beats of
the heart is abolished, and as oonse-
quence that organ contracts much more
rapidly, the pulse beats more quickly
and the circulation in various parts of
the body is increased. In addition to
this, we find that the pressure under
which the bile is secreted is raised by
the slipping of fluid. And here is point
which might well be noted by our read
ers:
A glass of cold water, slowly slipped,
will produce greater aoceleration of the
pulse for a time than will a glass o.
wine or spirits taken at draft In this
connection it may not be out of place to
mention that slipping cold water will
often allay the craving for alcohol in
those who have been in the habit of tax
ing too much Of 1t and who may be en-
deavoring to reform, the effect being
probably due to the stimulant action Of
the slipping

Voorhees, should be the next Governor of
the State of New Jersey
Mr.. Pitney seconded the nomination
which personally it gave him great pleas
ure to do. He moved that the roll call be
dispensed with, and that the nomination
be made by reclamation. This was done
with mighty shout.
The nominee was then brought before
the convention and spoke as follows:
''To you, gentlemen of the convention,
and through you to the many thousands
whose sentiments and wishes you repre-
sent, | express my grateful acknowledge
ment of the honor you have conferred
upon me. | well know that in the party
to which we belong there are many men
of wide experience and commanding in
tiuence whose services and talents entitle
them to your kindest consideration. Some
of these might have been named by you
with equal propriety and acceptance, and
therefore your selection, made as it has
been under such circumstances and with
such cordial unanimity, comes as a favor
the more highly appreciated and carries
with it deeper obligation.
I'm the contest upon which we are
doubt. There is no reason to fear All
signs point to successful issue. We can
safely assert that our party has not for
feited public confidence. When last we
appealed to the citizens of our state we
pledged ourselves, if entrusted with pow
er, to redeem the conduct of public affairs
from corruption, extravaganza and non
partisanship. Reforms were promised
whereby clean, honest and economical
government should be established. As
surances were given that affairs would be
administered rather for the benefit of the
people than for the advantage of party.
1--WE have made our record; there are
no broken promises; there are no violated
pledges; no scandal hangs about the con
duct of public business; no corruption is
to be found; there has been no reckless
extravaganza On the contrary, there has
been wise expenditure of public money
as demanded by the best interests of the
state. There has been no invasion of
charter rights; no violation of local gov
ernment no bitter partisanship to selfish
ends. The party can, without fear, chal-
lenge just criticism of its acts, and con-
tidently appeal to the people for contin
uance in power.
''Bespeaking your aid and that of my
fellow citizens in conducting the cam
paign to successful close, assuring you
that under all circumstances and at all
times it shall be my constant endeavor to
maintain a high standard of government,
fulfilling your declaration of principles.
and to merit and retain the confidence and
the approval of my fellow citizens in the
discharge of public duties, accept the
nomination which you have day so
generously rendered to me"

penses it was necessary to have some eS,-

consul, he went to the Plymouth branch
Of the Bank of England, and, presenting
his drafts, asked to have them changed for
notes and gold. The bank manager, not
content with exercising proper CONNER

said:

have never had business with the gentle
man who is United States vice consul
here, SO won't cash your drafts. You say
J. s. Morgan will indorse them. You
had better go up to London and let him
cash them"
Mr.. Clark went out to the telegraph
office, put himself In communication with
Mr.. Morgan, and Mr.. Morgan went to

How Snake Poison Kills.

The action of poisons upon the system
is and always has been one of the most
interesting of subjects Just how and
why it kills has been determined through
a series of experiments made by scien-
lists The following description is I'M
questionably the best and most lucid Of
any that has been given to the public:
1.-The venom may be roughly separated
into two parts-one acting upon the
blood, and the other upon the nerves.
When injected, it Immediately begins
to create terrible destruction in the
blood vessels, the walls of the veins are
eaten away and an internal hemorrhage
takes place While this is going on a
portion of the venom is attacking the
nerves. Particularly susceptible to its
ravages is the 'vasomotor' system, a
nerve center which controls the muscles
of respiration. Paralysis takes place In
these organs, and the victim generally
dies from an inability to breathe. -

Bismarck,s Ancestors.

1t is stated that the Bismarcks first
made their appearance in Brandenburg
as cloth merchants. In 1870 or there
about it is believed that one Claus Bis
marok advanced a sum of money to the
Margrave Ludwig, which was secured
upon the customs of his native town.
The citizens, however, rebelling against
this arrangement, the margrave assign
ed to Claus Bismarck the fief of Burg
stall, and it was in this manner that the
nobility Of the family began. In the
middle of the sixteenth century the Bis
marcks came under the sway of the
Hohenzollerns, to whom they have ever
remained faithful vassals.

NoTHING done at the State Republican
convention gave more satisfaction than
the resolution offered by the Burlington
county delegates commendatory of the
services of Hon. Franklin Murphy, chair
man of the State Executive Committee.
The chairman ruled that the resolution
was in reality but minute of the action
taken in the caucus of the Burlington
county delegates, but it did not take long
for the convention to adopt it as an ex-
preston of its feeling on the point The
tribute was deserved The Republican
party owes much to Franklin Murphy.
who has never tired in his efforts to pro
mote the success of the principles of his
party His counsel has been Invaluable
and he has been ready to advise at all
times and to devote his time to that end.
He felt that he had earned the right to re-
tire from the chairmanship, but after the
very enthusiastic manner in which the
convention adopted the resolution he
agreed to remain at the head of the com
mittee, determination that will be hailed
with satisfaction in all parts of the state.

State Convention.

The Republicans of New Jersey met at
Taylor's Hall, Trenton, on Thursday, and
nominated Foster N. VOORHEES, as their
candidate for Governor Attorney Gen
eral Griggs presided over the convention
and made ringing speech, which was
listened to with rapt attention. The fol
lowing platform was adopted:
The representatives of the Republican
party of New Jersey assembled in conven
ton, September 22d, 1898, hereby resolve
and declare: That we affirm our adhesion
and devotion to the fundamental principles
OF the National Republican party as set
forth in the platform adopted at the St
Louis convention in 1896. That we spe-
citcally declare our undying opposition to
any proposition to debase the national
currency-a proposition the honest voters
OF New Jersey buried under an unprece-
denied majority of eighty-seven thousand
when they declared in favor of the repre-
sentatives of national honor and honesty
Mckinley and Hobart
We heartily approve and endorse the
administration of President Mckinley
His treatment of domestic questions has
more than fulfilled all expectations: and
the wisdom of his foreign policy and the
hrmness and dignity with which it has
been maintained have won for him not
only the confidence and appreciation of
our own people but the highest regard of
the civilized world
Involved without due preparation in a
war in the interests of humanity, he pur-
sued a course which commanded united
support at home and effectively silenced
the assaults of interested diplomacy
abroad. In three months this conflict was
brought to a practical end with smaller
percentage of loss from battle and disease
than in any war of modern times, and
with the result of freeing.a suffering PEG
pie from a rule of cruelty and oppression,
OF acquiring new and valuable territory,
of opening to our people new avenues of
trade and commerce, furnishing new out
lets and demands for the agricultural and
industrial products of our people, and,
above all, providing to millions of our fell
low creatures an open door to those bless
ings of education and of civil and relig
ious liberty which have for hundred
years followed the advance of the Ameri-
can flag. We repose entire confidence in
the wisdom and patriotism of the Presi
dent and the commission appointed by !

to be any contest. But the contrary was
shown, and there never was more. interest
displayed in a political gathering. Foster

and will be elected. From the day he
was elected acting Governor he devoted
his entire time to the States business. a
record no other Governor can show. His
political and personal life are of the high

anything wrong has ever been breathed In

reason why Foster NJ Voorhees, should
not receive the undivided support of all
