The Tonic Use of Water.

Cold water is the universal tonic.
The best time for taking cold bath
for tonic effect is just after getting
out of bed in the morning, when the
body is warm. A cold bath should
never be taken when one is chilled.
One not accustomed to cold bathing
should begin carefully with water not
colder than rs deg. F. The bath should
be short, not to exceed minute, and
for feeble persons not more than fif-
teen or thirty seconds when applied
to the whole surface. The bath
should be Immediately followed by
rubbing and exercise for fifteen to
thirty minutes. There should always
be good reaction; that is, the whole
surface, including the hands and feet,
should quickly become warm. The
Lath should not be followed by Ian
guor, headache. lassitude or other in
dications of excessive reaction. When
one experiences such symptoms, the
indication is that the bath was too
long or too cold or not followed by
exercise. For feeble. very
young or elderly persons the water
used should rarely be lower than Go
degrees to rs degrees in winter. The
bath should be taken in a suitably
warmed room.

A study of statistics reveals the ter

The daily cold bath is one of the
most effective safeguards against
taking cold OF equal Importance is
abundance of fresh air in the sleep
ing apartment. Upon the first symp-
toms of "a cold" deep breathing ex-
ercises in the open air or in well
ventilated room should be taken at
frequent intervals. In nearly all
cases where this simple treatment is
taken, there will be no further de-
yelopment of the cold, and the symp-
toms will disappear. A doctor con-
rected with a large institution for
children recently tried this method
upon the inmates with surprising sue
cess.
There is nothing" he writes,
more irritable than a cough. For
time have been so fully assured of
this that | determined, for one min
ute at least, to lessen the number of
coughs heard in a certain ward of
the hospital of the institution. By
the promise of rewards and punish
ments, I succeeded in having the chill
dren simply hold their breath when
tempted to cough, and in little while
/ was myself surprised to see how
some of the children entirely recov-
cred from thA disease.
Let a person, when tempted TO
cough, draw a long breath, and hold
it until it warns and soothes every
air-cell, and some benefit will soon
be received from this process. The
nitrogen which is thus refined acts
as an anodyne to the mucous men,
brane, allaying the desire to cough,
and giving the throat and lungs q
chance to heal"

1t is the duty of the state to protect
its citizens-even those condemned to
pass term of years in Jail. The dan
ger to the inmates of prisons, from
pulmonary disease, has only lately
been realized. A short time since a
man who had served sentence in
the Ohio penitentiary, declared that
to send him back meant death by
tuberculosis. Inquiry was made. The
head physician announced that the
building was a hotbed of consump-
ton. A prominent official stated that
a ten years sentence was equivalent
to condemning man to death-by
pulmonary tuberculosis.
DR.. S. A. Knopf, the greatest Ameri-
Can authority on tuberculosis, was in
vited to visit the penitentiary. With
out hesitation he pronounced it the
most unsanitary penal institution he
had ever seen.
The output of many prisons is
enough to convince of the truth of the
above statements. The sallow COM
plexions, weakened bodies, sunken
chests of the eX-convicts, all are the
stamp of murderous prison hygiene.
All the rules for combating the great
white plague are reversed. For sun
light, they are given darkness; for
fresh air, a damp, musty atmosphere;
for out-of-door life a weary indoor
grind, a large part spent within the
narrow confines of single cell.
Is it not enough to take from fell
low being his liberty and appropriate
the labor of his hands, without fore
ing him to live under such conditions?
Dare the state continue to condemn
any of its citizens to such death?
Shall the sentence in public prison
cease at its legal expiration, or shall
the poor victim continue to suffer
from its dire effects until he fills a
consumptive's grave?
In this day of Anti-Tuberculosis
agitation, it would seem that public
institutions, whether asylums, schools,
prisons or assembly halls should be
the first to be brought under proper
sanitary conditions 1t is useless,
hopeless to educate the masses in re-
gard to the cure and prevention of
tuberculosis and then maintain at
public expense hotbeds for the de-
velopment of consumptives to be fin
ally turned loose in the community

| Just Discrimination In Railway Rates.
All railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject in responsible way
are likely to agree with President
Samuel Spencer Of the Southern Rail-
way when he says: There is no d.
vision OF opinion as to the desirability
of stopping all secret or unjustly dis
criminatory devices and practises OF
whatsoever character"
Mr.. Spencer, in speaking OF "un'
Justly discriminatory" rates and de-
vices. makes a distinction which is at
once apparent to common sense. There
may be discrimination in freight rates
which Is just, reasonable and impera-
lively required by the complex COM
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have
to DEAL To abolish such open ana
honest discrimination might paralyze
the industries of cities, states and
whole sections of our national terri
tory.
This distinction between just and
unjust discrimination is clearly recog-
nized in the conclusions of the Inter
national Railway Congress, published
yesterday:
Tariffs should be based on CONNER
cial principles, taking into account the
special conditions which bear upon the
commercial value of the services rem
dered With the reservation that rates
shall be charged without arbitrary dis
elimination to all shippers alike under
like conditions, the making or rates
should as far as possible have all the
elasticity necessary to permit the devel-
opment of the traffic and to produce the
greatest results to the public and to the
railroads themselves
The present proposal is, as Mr..
Walker d. Hines of Louisville showed
in his remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate Committee at
Washington, to crystalline flexible and

government rates which cannot be
