Ahe savannah News thinks that Mt the
beginning of sea bathing season the
warning of DR.. Grannis read before the
connecticut State Medical Society the
other day is of interest to all who visit
the seashore in summer. DR.. Grarnis
asserted that sea baths, properly taken,
are helpful and invigorating but that
the majority of bathers abuse the lux
ury OF the serf, They remain in the
water too long, and as a result are in
lured rather than benefited by the
path. No bather should remain in salt
water long enough to feel fatigue, and
when one experiences desire to lie
down after bathing in the serf It is
evidence that the bath has been car
rled to excess. A great many persons
feel the need Of a stimulaut Immediate
~ after coming out of the water. They
have over done the thing. The bath
itself, if properly taken, will prove a
stlmulant. Care and moderation are
to be constantly observed if the bather
is to derive good from salt water.
Mr.. L.. Iutz, who lives about five
miles from Marietta on the Powers
ferry road, was in to see us Saturday.
He says in his immediate neighborhood
they have had splendid rains and cot
ton and corn are doing fine. The heavy
rain over week ago was accompanied
by terrible electrical display. The
lightning struck number of trees and
shattered them. The largest tree.
probably, in the county, three centuries
old, near DR.. j M. Moore's house. was
struck by lightning and badly splin-
tered. Mr.. Lutz while here stated that
he had frightful experience with bees.
A gum turned over and came apart.
He gloved his hands and yelled his face
10 right 1T to its position. The bees
covered him, the veil became unfas-
tened and the pesky little fellows, en-
ragged, got under the veil and began to
get in their work on his head, neck and
face. He was about to be stung to
death and there seemed to be no help.
He threw off his veil and ran to the
we'll where he plunged his head and
face in tub of water. Thus he got
relief, but his head, neck and face were
badly swollen from the vigorous at
lacks made by the stings of the bees.
Door yards beautiful with flowers
give an air of refinement and elegance
to city not otherwise to be attained.
A little city of uniform, even and solid
sidewalke, of dooryards covered with a
beautiful and even green sward, with
Towering shrubs and trees, we'll painted
houses, fences and ,outbuildings, at once
attracts the attention of visitors and
strangers; besides they add greatly to
the enjoyment of the population.
Mr.. IL. d. Kemp, of Marietta, was
here last week, and called to see us.
He says he will probably move here soon
and open dairy. He has 100 cows,
and will ship his milk and butter here
fresh every day. This will be a good
thing, and enable all to get fresh butter
and milk when they want it.-Blue
