SORT OF BATH TO TAKE.
An Important Ceremony That Is te

An Important Ceremony That Ii too
Often Rushed Through.
This is the time of the year when
our cold bath begins to feel as if it
were living up to it's name, so it may
not be amiss to speak a bit upon the
subject. First of all, cold bath, as
many suppose, is not necessarily water
as it comes from the faucet. In point
of fact, it is any bath of temperature
below 80 degrees, Strange as it may
seem, some paoNe far from strong
have been dri-sa to plunging into icy
water just beca c. some other persons
sang the praises of the cold bath so
loudly and persistently. The people
who in cases of illness used to fairly
shrek at the thought or mention of
bath, are even getting educated. Not
that great care isn't necessary. In
deed, it is in all bathing, and the. bath
thermometer should be used by both
sick and we'll. Of course, an invalid
is only bathed according to the physi-
clans instructions. The bath is
boon. Anyone who has tossed and
turned in nervous unrest knows the
/ soothing powers of the sponge bath.
Each part must be sponged and dried
thoroughly and covered. The arms
and legs in turn, then the back, then
the chest, then the abdomen. This,
with ice on the head, will even quiet
delirium. AS for our ordinary, every
day bathing, we must decide which
gives us the best results. A hot bath
is least injurious taken on going to
bed. They are weakening, however,
and should not be too often INDUCED
in; perhaps one week. A hot bath
means temperature of 100 or 11O de-
grees. A warm bath means anything
from 80 to 100, tepid ranges from 80 to
90, while cold is anything below 80.
Never stay in over fifteen or twenty
minutes; ten is enough for most of
rs. The morning is the best time for
the daily bath, and those who find the
plunge or the shower too much for
them, should consider the sponge bath.
Many who are exhausted or chilled by
other sorts of baths would find this a
splendid tonic. 1t is more work,
though. We do not consider these
things enough, and are prone to for
get that bathing is or an Importance
ON a par with our food. Above all, let
us take the sort of bath which is most

Tit for Tat.

It is characteristic of those who are
severe on others that they cannot bear
severity. Dean Swift. the severest
satirist of his day. was one day dining
with company Of gentlemen, one. of

with repeated sallies. At last the dean

gravy intended to be eaten with a

London. Drainage scheme.

The county council has definitely
committed itself to new main dral1n-
age scheme, which involves the con-
struction Of two large sewers on both
sides of the Thames at total cost OF
f3 100000. This seems a great outlay,
but the work appears to be imperative
London is growing ceaselessly ano
enormously every year. and what was
adequate when the present sewers
were constructed is now so inadequate
that those living in the lower parts OF
the metropolis are subjected to peri
odic floods. 1t is computed that the
daily flow of sewerage, at the north

volume of the river Severn at the

Cat-o'-Nine-TasIs for Drunkards,

South Carolina having abolished, the
saloon and substituted the dispensary,
she now proposes to establish hospitals
for drunkards, where thirst will be
treated as a disease. If along, with
bromides and tonics the cat-o'-nine
tails should be prescribed for inebri-
ates who neglect or abuse their wives
and children, the innovation, would
work wonderful cures. The one dan

Waste of the Forests.

Many sections of the West are begin
ming to reap the bitter fruits of de-
struction. A few years ago the snow
would drift, and pile up in the noun
tain gulches, thickly studded with pine
and other trees, forming an almost i'm
penetrable forest protection, and there
gradually melt away, supplying water
for the streams until late in the season.
This, now, has too often changed. The
timber has gradually, but surely, been
cut and burnt away, until now some OF
the finest forests of the mountains have
disappeared, and where the snow banks
would remain until late in the season,
they now disappear months earlier,
and instead of melting gradually, the
hood-waters come with a rush, and
then cease when most needed. There
is scarcely anything more important
than forest protection and preserva-
tion. which means a guarding of the
water supply; and every State and
every section should rouse to active To-
cal organization and national co-opera-
tion.
