NEED OF WATER DRINKING.
How co Obtain h Best Results froD
Constant Use of Natures
Fluid

A well-known nerve specialist has
said that "all Inconsistencies Chat is,
people with unhealthy nerves. have
desiccated nerves and suffer from an
insufficiency of fluid in the tissues OF
the body" 1t is probable that we all,
in more or less degree, even when not
conscious of any definite symptoms,
are suffering in some part of Il sys-
TEN for the lack of enough fluid, and
especially enough pure, cool water,
says Youths Companion.
We know that so nicely is the hui
mon body adjusted and adapted to its
uses that one part cannot suffer with
out all suffering. If the nerves are
desiccated, or dried through lack of
fluid, then it is certain that other it's
sues are also suffering from the same
lack. and that the wheels of the WON
derful machinery are being clogged by
reason of waste matter which is not
washed away.
We see by this that water does for us
a three-fold service. 1t feeds. it washes,
and it carries away the cinders of the
body furnace; and through the want
of it we are exposed to many and great
dangers. The tissues become too dry,
the blood is thick and its flow sluggish.
and the retained waste of the body
sets up a condition which the doctors
call administration" or self-poison-
ing. This condition may give rise to
almost any known symptoms, from a

responsible for most of the semi-in-
valids with whom the world is largely
peopled.
To obtain the best results from wa
t~er-drinking certain rules should be OBJ
served. People do not all need the same
amount, and it may take a little ex-
p%erimenting to find out just how much
should be taken in individual cases. II
has been stated by some physicians
that five or six pints should be taken
during the "a hours. OF this only a
moderate quantity should be taken
with the meals. 1t is a mistake to
take no water with a meal, but it is
perhaps a greater mistake to wash
food down with water. especially with
ice-water.
The best time for water-drinking is
at night and early in the morning. 1t
is well to form the habit of slowly sip
ping, during the bath and while dress
ing, two or three glasses of cool-not
lce-cold-water. Two or three more
may be slipped at bedtime. and again
Two or three glasses an hour or two
before luncheon and before dinner.
In a very short time the value of this
habit will become apparent in the re-
%sultant general improvement in diges-
ton, temper and appearance.

If we cannot at need even humiliate
ourselves to win our brother, it is
difficult to see where our religion
comes in, especially when we think
what humiliation Christ suffered that
He might reconcile us to God and make
US friends again with our heavenly
Father and renew our broken love.
Whatever be our faith and works and
however correct be our creed and con-
Duct, If we are giving place to anger,
if we are stiffening ourselves in strife
and disdain, we are none of His, who
was meek and lowly of heart Misun-
derstandings and arrangements will
arise. occasions will come when it
seems as if not even love and forbear-
ance can avoid quarrel. but surely
Christ has died in vain if His grace
cannot save US from continuance of

A Little Reminder.

The distribution of copyrighted books for a
quarter in Boston has been entirely unusual, and
there has been heavy demand for these popular
works ever since they have been on sale.
The authors already published are Paul
Leicester Ford, Pemberton, Mrs. Anterior,
Cable, stockton, Crockett and others of eqnal
note
This weeks issue brings forward the brilliant
L. p. Rowe and his Driven Back to Eden.
The demand for this book will, no doubt fully
equal the record Of the others, as E. T. Roe was
the most popular author of his generation.
Eight novels in all are now available, and
book buyers will do wisely to secure them eaeA
week as issued. and before the allotment Of any
one of the volumes is exhausted; hence this
little reminder. Though hitherto expensive,
these books, one and all, are just now procurable
at only quarter copy.
This charming novel with any OF the other
seven published can be obtained by sending 80
cents for each to Jordan, Marsh & Co., Boston,

NOTES OF rnE coNvENr1oN.

The able report OF Hancock county
convention given last week by the CORE
spending secretary must have proved sat-
isfactory to the white ribbon delegates,
but want to emphasize her modest
allusion to the hospitality OF the enter-
tanning unions, Stonington and South
Deer Isle. Cheeriest welcome beamed from
every face, and the many generous acts OF
courtesy were on par with the "stout
cup of tea" so genially pressed upon one
of the members of the executive COM
mittee as a special mark of honor by the
sprightly hostess Of Ocean View.
The delightful sociability OF the picnic
meals in that cosy dining-room, the
morning raid of the "hatchet brigade,
and many other humorous incidents will
linger long in the memories OF the dele
gates.
To those who had never before traversed
the streets OF Stonington, the granite
ribbed isle seemed indeed a marvel OF
nature, and the witty description Of Mr..
Mills in his welcome speech was very apt.
The handsome cottages with neatly laid
out lawns and gardens spoke OF thrift and
taste in home culture.
There were many notable features OF
this convention which will mark 1t a red
letter event in the county w. c. t. u.
annals. The fine executive ability, so
modestly exemplitied by the county presi-
dent, was very gratifying to those ready to
obey her suggestions. The spirit of har-
mony and good will which prevailed,
strengthened by the devotional services,
the valuable aid rendered by the lecturer,
Mrs. Gertrude Stevens Leavitt, her charm
Ing personality and most excellent address,
gladdened all hearts, while the hearty CO.
operation of the pastors, Rev. Mr.. Conley
and Rev. Mr.. Hartwell, cheered the con-
vention.
May the fifteenth annual council oil
Hancock county white ribboners find al
cordial welcome TO church and homes.

The Power of con.cience.

A man strives to know the everlast-
ing right, to keep conscience void of
all offense. His inward eye is pure
and single; all is true to the eternal
right. His moral powers continually
expand. and by SO much more does he
hold communion with his God. As far
as it can see his finite conscience reads
in the book the eternal right of God
a mans power of conscience is the
measure Of his moral communion with
the Infinite.-Theodore Parker.

Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe increaseD
Awoke one night from deep dream of peace,
And saw, within the moonlight of his room,
Making 1t rieh, aud ike lily in bloom,
An angel writing in book of gold.

And to the presence in hts room he said:
"What writest thou;" The vision raised its head,
And, with a voice made all of sweet accord.
Answered 1.-THE names of those who love the
Lord"
"And is mine one?n said Abou,
NAY not So" replied the angel.
Abou spoke more low
But cheerily still; and said,
II pray thee then,
Write me as one who loves his fellow men,"
The angel wrote, and vanished.

Topic Fer the Week beginning June
9-csmment by Rev. $. III. Doyle.
ToFtc.-How to enter Christ's family.-Math.
hi, $3.50
That we may enter Christs family is
the glorious revelation of the word Of
God. The family of Christ is the fam
tly of God, and God has repeatedly
promised in His word that He will be
the Father OF His people and that they
shall be His children. Paul declares
that "the Spirit itself beareth witness
with our spirits that we are the chill
dren of God" Christ in this passage,
stretching forth His hand to His dis
ciples, said. Behold My mother and
My brc; hren." The disciples of Christ
are His spiritual relatives. and this is
even a clearer and a stronger tie than
the ties of nature which bind men to-
gether in this life.
Membership in the family of Christ
is the result of discipleship. The dis
ciple is one who is taught of Christ
and who follows His teaching. The
disciple hears from Christ the will of
God and does it. This brings him into
the family of Christ, 'for whosoever
shall do the win of My Father which
is in heaven, the same is My brother
and sister and mother" The hearing
of Gods will from Christ does not
bring rs into relationship with Christ,
nor does processing to do the win of
God accomplish this blessed result. 1t
Is the doing alone that admits US into
the family of God. "Ye are My
friends If We do whatsoever I COM
mand you" By believing in Christ
and doing the will of God because of
our faith in Christ, we are adopted
into the family of God, the most de-
sirable and blessed relationship pos
sible in this life.
Membership in the family of Christ
brings to us all the privileges of the
children of God. By this relationship
we become children of God, "and if
children, then heirs, heirs of God and
joint heirs with Christ" Adopted into
the family of God, we enjoy the right
to all the privileges of the sons of God.
We derive the divine nature, bear the
divine image, receive the Fathers
name, are the special objects of His
love and care, and God Himself makes
provision for us both for this life and
the life to come.
Membership in the family of Christ
brings with it a great responsibility.
Great privileges are always accom-
panied by great responsibilities. The
children of a king have great priv
ileges, but also great responsibilities.
The kings honor, the kings name
must be kept unsullied by them. Much
more Is this true of the children of the
King of kings. The children of God
must say nothing. must do nothing
that will bring their Fathers name
into disrepute or cast reflection upon
His cause. Let us meet this great re-
sponsibility not in our own strength,
but in the strength of our Father and
our elder Brother, for thus only can we
be kept faithful
THE PRAYER MEETING.
Have voluntary service in which
each one participates as led by the
Spirit.
