Heaiing Properties of water,

National Magazine TOT July.
 There is no remedy of such general application and none so easily obtain ed as water. and yet nine persons out of ten will pass it by in an emergency to seek for something of less efficacy. There are but few eases of illness where water should not occupy higher place as a remedial agent
 A strip of flannel or a napkin folded lengthwise and wrung out of hot wa ter and applied around the neck of a child who has croup, will usually relief in few minutes. A towel fold ed several times. then quickly wrung out of hot water and immediately ap- piled over the seat of the pain in toothaehe or neuralgia, will afford prompt relief. This treatment in collie works like magic. Cases on record having resisted other treatment for hours, have yielded to this treatment in ten minutes. Pieces of cotton bat ting dipped in hot water, then applied to all sores and new cuts, bruises, and sprains is the treatment now general ly adopted Tn hospitals. Hot water taken freely a half hour before bed time is an excellent carthartic in the case of constipation. while 1t has a most soothing effect on the stomach and bowels This treatment continued for a few months. together with prop CT attention to diet. will alleviate mild cases of dyspepsia.

Portusaps Gignatlc American Daugh-

Heralding the Pan-American confer ence to be held in Rio Janeiro in July, Ethel Armes' article Gin the National Magazine for June) on modern Brazil, under the title "PortugaPs Gignatic Daughter" is of timely interest. Did you know that the second largest na- tion in the western world is a Portu- guese nation? The official language, that is, is Portuguese, and most of the official c'ass are of Portuguese extrac- tion, though the Italians outnumber the descendants of other races in the big southern republic. The Germans of whom we have heard so much to the effect that they were planning to seize the government of Brazil and establish a German colony there. are numerically inconSiderable and have there, as in the United States. assimi- lated with the people of the country. becoming loyal and progressive clti- zens. devoted to the welfare of their adopted land and proud of her pro- gresS.
 The new Republic of Brazil will be seventeen years old next November. During the last fiscal year Brazil bought goods worth a hundred millions in the United States, and the yearly sales are mounting rapidly.
 Miss Armes' article is based upon a series of interviews with the members
 
 ton, who later approved her work in proof sheets. Concerning the people of Brazil, Miss Armes says:
 "As in this country. so there is in Brazil the same fusion of races and of nationalities: Italians, Portuguese, Spanish, Germans. Austrians, Scandi- navians, Poles. Russians, English and French, of whom the predominating race insofar as numbers are concern ed, is the Italian. There are nearly four times as many Italians as Portu- guese in Brazil, notwithstanding the fact that the country was for so many centuries Portuguese colony. then a Brazilian empire, and now a Brazilian republic with the Portuguese tongue the official language, and manners and customs, and leading families today marking back to the mother land of Portugal. as America 60 England.
 The African, and particularly the native Indian element, once so in the ascendant in certain portions of the country-a veritable flood devastating the cnlonies--is at ebb now, the native scarcely surviving indeed, being clean ed out by the notwithstanding current of the new and stronger racial waters that sweep across the land. Latin and Anglo-Saxon and Slav and Teuton and Norse,-they have met and commingled there as here. In a few generations the term Brazilian will mean as he- terogeneous a quantity as the word American with the one difference: significance of Portugal. not England, attached at root"

4 Rounded Education
 For Every Girl
Converse College Has Perfected a Beautifully Rounded Standard of Artistic, Scientific and
 W0manly Education.

It is not imagined at Converse that College Pedagogy resolves itself into the theory of least resistance. AL though particular pains are taken to educate every girl according to her tastes rather than athwart them, still Instruction in science and mathematics Is as painstakinG and capable as any other
 Mathematics hers rises to the inte- grai calculus, and science to organic chemistry. while In other departments are offered, for example, thorough courses in economies, psychology. etc. ali for the sake of breadth. recogniz- Ing the educated woman's cultured ln- terest in all things human, yet cher ishing in constant remembrance the fact that woman interest. a wo- mans place in the world demands the womanly education )f women. For the exception nal woman there are other in etitutions. but at Converse College i. is not believed that the average gir cares or needs to be a specialist. For instance, in art and music while the specially talented girl is given fullest opportunity. still each and every indi- viduaI is taught to hear and see with that understanding winch insures full Interpretation and appreciation of mas terDieces
 Ali in all. above Ill things, Converse College, of Spartan5Irg. s. C., stands for the highest perfection in compre- hensive. rounded education for girls. n1on-thu.
