Moor Baths.

The moor baths which are provided
at many Austrian and German health
resorts, were first used at FranZens-
bad In 1923 DR.. Poschmann, q physl-
clan there, believed that he had found
In them n new curative medium, and
they have since become popular. Some
physicians still question their efficacy,
while others in Austria and Germany
rely upon them to render good service
in many maladies. Though the bath
Is composed of peat, or moor earth, to
which enough water has been added to
make thick paste of the mass, yet
the peat is different from that which
is extracted from n bog in Ireland or
Scotland
In both Ireland and Scotland the peat
Is used as fuel. At FranZensbad the
mineralized peat will not serve such a
purpose. The bog from which it Is ex-
tracted has been saturated throughout
countless ages with mineral water, and
the product is a strong chemical com
pound. Thus a moor bath is mineral
oath in n concentrated form, and eff
'ects are produced upon the system by
taking n course Of these baths which
cannot be produced, according to ex-
perts, by any mineral water.-Black-

Antiou,tx Of PLAYING Card,.

The game of cards was first played
In the east and seems to have had a
military origin. Cards were introduced
from Asia into Europe at the time OF
the crusades and were first used by
necromancers to foretell fortunes They
soon became a popular amusement in
the south of Europe, where the Sara
Gems and Moors taught the peopR how
to use them, and card playing spread
to all parts of the continent. The state
records of Germany mention the fact
that Rudolph l., in 1875. was fond Of
the game and played with his court
iers
After the invention Of paper the man.
p<acture of cards became extensive,
but declined somewhat when card play
ing was forbidden by several Of the
German states and by the English gov
ernment on account Of the supposed
immoral tendency. Before the era Of
paper cards in the orient were made
of ivory, papyrus and canvas, less fire.

1t makes the present generation smile
to read the accounts which have come
down to us concerning the prejudices
which were formerly entertained
against certain articles which are of
everyday consumption.
For instance, it is said that when coal
was first used in England the prejudice
against 1t was SO strong that the house
of commons petitioned the king to pro-
hibit the use of the ''noxious" fuel
A royal proclamation having failed to
abate the nuisance, a commission was
issued to ascertain who burned coal
within the city of London and Its neigh
borhood, to punish them by force for
the first offense and by the demolition
of their furnaces il they persisted in
transgressing. A law was finally pass
ed making it capital offense to burn
coal in the city and only permitting 1t
to be used by forges in the vicinity. 1t
is stated that among the records In the
Tower of London a document was
found according to which a man was
hanged in the time of Edward I. for no
other crime than having been caught
burning coal. II took three centuries
to entirely efface the prejudice.

WHY Water Won't Fry.

Why cannot we fry in water? Be-
cause water can only be heated to the
boiling point, 212 degrees, and any ad-
ditional heat does not increase its tenn
perature Two hundred and twelve de-
grees of heat will not brown the sur
face of anything. Fat, on the contrary,
can be made much hotter, the tempera-
ture depending on the kind. There is
lesson here for the economical house,
wife. Don't stuff the stove with fuel
when the vegetables, meat, etc., are
already boiling. They cook no faster
because of the increase Of heat.
