Timely Health Hints.

1t is a rather humbling fact, but
a certain one none the less, that the
condition of a mans body colors all
his higher activity. The "fnest
phrenzy" that ever was, depends
somewhat on the ability of the origi-
nator to handle bread and butter.
This is the season when people in
town need to get out and get a good
deal of fresh air. The life essentials
are food, water, air and exercise.
The reason why people in towns die
out and need to be replenished from
the country every two generations, is
hat people in the country get plenty
of air and exercise, while those in
town do not. Women and children
and men too-become cross and peev-
ish, because they confne themselves
too much. "The blues" is just an
other name for torpid liver and poor
circulation. Three deaths out of
four are untimely and in. a sense
suicidal. Most people could live
longer by taking care, but they would
rather die than take exercise. Drink
four pints of water every day, eat
wholesome food, breathe deeply, then
add to these a cheerful mind, and
if you die before your time some
body will be to blame other than
yourself.-Stanly Enterprise.

ing my majority" my father told me
to go to Andy Johnson's and pick
out the best piece of cloth in his shop
for a suit of clothes. Chat" he
said, "will be about the last thing I
can do for you. You're a man now,
and must shift for yourself" I
shifted" to Indiana a year later.
That suit of clothes was a dark
brown broadcloth-a swallow-tailed
coat, with plain metal buttons on it,
a very wide collar of velvet to match,
and a w~aist-cOat, double-breasted and
long enough and loose enough for
two of me. | can see Andy now, as
he stood M up on the block to meas
ure me for my trousers-a big, fab
by face, swarthy skin, heavy eye
brows, and a forbidding scowl. That
was in the winter of 1882, and An
drew Jackson was President. Andy,
the tailor, e dreamed, as he
pressed off that suit of mine and
gathered in his twenty-nine dollars
for it, that he would himself follow
Jackson into the White House thirty
three years later.
Ny suit wore we'll, and I was mar
ried in it in 1886. 1t served me for
Sunday "dress-up" until I got too
stout to button it about me.-Youth's

Made by the Tailor-P President.

Do boys of this generation know
what a "freedom suit" is? In the
oIj days, a boys twenty-frst birth
day-the day when he struck out for
hlmSclf-was regarded as an import
ant one. His father, or his master
II ne had been apprenticed, setn him
forth with at least n possession es-
N'ntlaI to a fair start in life-a good
N"nr OF clothes. This was the young
mans freedom suit. The Jackson,
Indiana, CIarion-Ledger tells Of a
respected old man in that State, who
mas been sheriff and has served in the
Legislature, whose freedom suit was
made by a man afterwards President
'' tn" United States. He was brought
up IN Tennessee, in the town of
"r'onYlIIc. This is how he tells the
story of his suit:
About a fortnight before "attain-

A man who lives in Albany, and
whose business was that of a clerk,
said that he has lately built a house
that cost him three thousand dollars.
His friends expressed their wonder
that he could afford so fine a dwell

and had become a drunkard through

The main reason why so many peo-
i, nso these mixtures is the popular
innposition hat drugs cure disease.
This i q great error. Drugs never
,,ro disease. Nature alone has pow
or heal. There are agents which in
tho hands of a trained and pains
taking physician may assist nature,
bu+ the physician needs to under
.+ord something of the idiosyncraci-
ps of his patients system, or the
rso Of these agents may do great
harm instead of good. Those medi-
ooI men who have made the most
difioent study of health and disease
assert as their deliberate opinion
that excessive professional dragging
has been decidedly destructive of hui
man life. What then may be thought
Of the indiscriminate consuming of
mprofcssional compounds of the
cheapest drugs and vilest whiskey?
Many seem unaware hat the ethics
of the medical profession restrain
reputable physicians from advertis-
ing themselves or their remedies, so
that these m~uch-lauded patent medi-
cincs are put upon the market by
Quacks, never by physicians of good
standing. The writer knows one man
who before engaging in this business
was a barber, another who was a
farmer, another a sewing machine
agent. 1t is purely a money-making
enterprise, without consideration of
the health or destruction of the peo-
pie. 1t is popularity supposed that
physicians decry these things from
fear that their sale will injure regu-
lar practice. This is another error,
as they increase work for the doctor
by aggravating existing trouble as.
well as causing disease where there
was only slight disturbance.
If people would quit dragging
themselves, avoid indigestible viands,
eat at regular hours, chew well, stop
eating when they have had enough,
take a suficiency of exercise, sleep
and fresh air, with a hot bath once
a week, and a cold sponge bath each
morning, laying aside all alcoholics
and tobacco, there would be very lit
tie sickness in the world. Overeat-
ing leads to the drug habit for relief
from uneasy sensations. Those who
value health must cultivate self-con-

A Proposed Change in the Watts Bill.

A Proposed Change in the Watts Bill.
Dear Aunt Jennie:-I have made
several attempts to write to the Chat
lately, but would ruin my paper and
tear it up and quit, but when my
paper came this morning and there
was no Chat, I decided to try again.
[ am always sorry when there are
no letters from the Chatterers; then
we don't have your kind and instruc-
tive letters. [ hope it was not for
want of letters; if so, it is a great
pity-as many good writers as the
Chat has.
Aunt Jennie (if [ am allowed to
speak on the important subject) l
wish to say that there is one mis-
take in Section 6 of the Watts Bill
passed by our last Legislature. /
think the one that makes the wine
and cider should be compelled to
keep the one that drinks it and not
send him to the innocent ones and
those that are opposed to the traf-
fc. The dealers get the money and
they are the ones to have the trouble.
And if they had to trouble with the
drinker and takes his abuse, they
would soon get tired, l think, and
quit selling the stuff.
