Longevity Influenced by Wnter.

Solid and dry as the human body
appears, says The Household, water
constitutes more than one-fourth of it's
bulk, and all the functions of life are
really carried on in water bath, and,
although the sense of thirst may be
trusted 10 call for a draught of water
when required. the fluid can be i'm
bibed most adyantageously for many
reasons besides satisfying the thirst.
In the latter stage OF digestion,
when communion of the mass is in
complete, it is much facilitated by
moderate drau3ht of water, which dis
integrates and dissolves the contents
of the stomach, fitting it for emul-
gence and preparing 1t for assimila-
ton.
Hence the habit of drinking water
in moderate quantities between meals
contributes to health, and indicates
the fact that those who visit health
resorts Tor the purpose of imbibing
the waters of mineral springs might
profit by staying at home and drinking
more water and less whiskey.
Water is the universal solvent OF
nature, and the chief agent in all
Transformation of matter. When
taken into an empty stomach it soon
begins to pass ont through the tissues
into the circulation to liquefy effete
solids, whose excretion from the sys-
TEN is thus facilitated.
Very few people think of the nec-
essity of washing the inside as we'll
as the outside of the body, and he who
would he perfectly healthy should be
as careful about the cleanliness of his
stomach as that of his skin.

NJ. Martel, the well-known French
cave hunter, has explored a natural
pit in the limestone of the Lozere,
France, with remarkable results. After
descending vertical shaft for about
900 feet he found an immense hall,
slipping downward, aud at the lower
end virgin forest of stalagmites,
resembling pine aud palm trees. Many
of them are very beautiful, and one,
over ninety feet in height, reaches
nearly to the vault of the cavern.
Nothing like this forest of stone has
been observed in any other known
cave or pit.
