A Hartford Pneumonia Patient Cured by Heroic Means.

A Hartford Pneumonia Patient Cured
 by Heroic Means.
 Arthur Roulston, of No. 216 Wethers- field avenue, Hartford has recovered from a severe attack of pneumonia, af- ter an illness of two weeks, says the Times" For several days his life was despaired of.
 About two weeks ago, he was taken. with pronounced attack of pneu- monia, and on the second day of the disease his temperature reached 106 de- grees, with rapid pulse, difficult respir- ation and accompanied by active delir- ium. This condition continued for sev- en days with no intervals of repose, day or night, the ,delirium becoming so violent that 1t was with difficulty the patient could be kept in bed. His tenn perature remained above 106 degrees, with pulse f50 degrees, and persisted with amelioration, notwithstanding that his physician, Dr. Boucher, em- ployed all remedies for this disease, in- cluding cold bathing.
 Indication of approaching death be- coming apparent and convinced of the futility of drugs, the family consented to the following heroic treatment:
 The patient was divested of all cloth ing, and, enveloped in a sheet, was placed upon rubber protective and his entire body, face excepted, was covered with snow, upon which cold water was poured, the application being continued almost an hour, when the temperature had dropped to 103 degrees, and the pulse to 115, with almost absolute re- lief.
 The improvement lasted about six hours, when the fever and de- lirium returned. The snow packs were resumed and applied every four hours, day and night. whenever the tempera- ture reached 105 degrees, and were con- tinued four days. when the crisis was reached and the patient made rapid and uninterrupted recovery. The cold applications were agreeable to the pa- tient, and the good achieved was prob ably due to a reflex action upon the l nerve centers, and not entirely the re- suit of the direct abstraction of heat.

EMILY WINTHROP WATSON.

In the Bushnell lot at Evergreen cem- etery, Thursday afternoon, were inter red the remains of Emily Winthrop Watson, aged eight years and nine months, daughter of Gilbert l.. and Charlotte Bushnell Watson, and grand- daughter of the late Cornelius s. Bush- nell. During the winter the Watsons have resided In Parkersburg, W. Va, where MT. Watson has extensive inter- ests in the production of crude petrol eum Little Emily was flower maid at the wedding of her uncle, Ericsson, and Bertha Thompson, in Old Trinity church, New York, November 20, 1897. About sixty days, ago Emily was af- fiicted at Parkersburg, w. Va, with a species of blood poisoning which baf- fled the skill of the best medical talent of Virginia and New York and finally laid her low on the 22d inst.
 Only the immediate friends of the Watson and Bushnell families were present at the simple ceremony con- ducted in the cemetery chapel by Rev. Samuel c. Bushnell of Arlington, Mass, uncle of the deceased, with Rev Dr. J. E. Twitchell assisting. The Bushnell brothers, Judson, Nathan, Winthrop G.. and Edward, acted as bearers. Char lotte Watson, the mother, remained in New York, at the home of her brother, Ericsson, too ill to attend. MT. Wat son was present with his remaining child, Neil, a stout lad of ten years.
 The Watson family is well known at Madison, which is the summer home of the Bushnell family
 Emily Winthrop Watson was beau- tiful girl of most lovable character and the idol of a wide circle of friends, who will mourn the early closing of a life so full of promise. Her health had al- ways been good and her untimely end seems almost as unscrutable as sud- den.

AFTER ONE THING.
A Philosophers Statement That Happi-
 ness Is The One Ohiec of Life.

Did you ever think of it,-that hap piness, the pursuit of, attainment to, and possession of happiness is the one great pervading and animating motive of humanity?
 Every act has for its immediate or far away object, happiness. This IS the goal alike of the child at play, the burglar at his nefarious occupation, or the business man striving for gam,
 The statement will bear careful thought; and then comes the thought that unless we keep health we cannot secure happiness, no matter how much money we earn or what position of prominence we attain to.
 When one steps upon the springy sod and into the warm sunlight ot an early day in June, while the soft teas ing breeze strokes the cheek, the pirds chatter to tell how happy they are, and all through ones being silently courses a sturdy indescribable sense of perfect bounding health and nerv- ous boise, the value of that health IS better appreciated when one realizes that without health all these fasclna- tions of Mother Nature would appear cold and flat.
 Peace and happiness are worth more than much gold. The true road to what we all strive for. happiness, is to first seek and hold fast to health. If daily ails affect you, try change of diet rather than drugging. No drugs on earth will bring health unless the cause of the disorder Is removed. Try leaving off coffee for 10 days to a month. It is an unsuspected enemy to large numbers of people.
 Postum Food Coffee has not only the flavor and color so greatly liked. but has about 80 per cent. of the exact food elements needed by nature to re- build brains and nerve centers in va rious parts of the body.
 It is sold at groceries.
