Hot or Cold Water.

II is q debatable question whether
II is a wise practice to drink cupful
OF hot water Immediately upon rising
every morning. The hot-water fiends
fancy that they cannot live without
their morning drink, but there are re-
liable physicians who claim that this
practice is debilitating to the stomach
and that 1t cannot fail to do injury.
The habitual use of cold water is an
excellent habit to form. 1t Is natural
to drink cold water, Cold water Is a
tonic to the stomach, as 1t is to the
skin. 1t gives tonicity to the mucous
walls OF the stomach The practice of
taking fve or six glasses OF cold water
day is a good one. II will help to
clear the complexion, brighten the
eyes. and Is said to be almost GER
tain remedy for puffness under the
eyes.

AS UNCLE JOE SEES IT.
Speaker Cannon Expresses interesting
Views on the Situation.

Joseph c.. Cannon of Illinois, speaker
of the house, arrived in New York last
Friday, looking in fine health and opti-
mistic as to the financial and business
outlook.
"A great many plans have been pro-
posed to relieve the money stringency,'
said Speaker Cannon. I'm fact there
are as many plans as there are people
advocating them. In other words, there
Is a confusion Of ideas as to what
emergency legislation might be neces-
sary. Before making up my mind as
to what should be done / prefer to
await the recommendations OF the
president and the secretary Of the
treasury, and the appropriation COM
mittee that has jurisdiction over the
subject"
Discussing the situation generally
the speaker said:
The masses of the people In the
United States never were 80 rich as
they are today. The cotton, the corn,
the wheat and the meat produced this
year and now waiting to be marketed
are Of the value Of at least ten billion
dollars, and the people who produced
them are substantially out Of debt.
There is a demand for the great bulk
Of these products in the United States
and there Is a demand for all we have
to spare in the markets Of the world at
extraordinary high prices. These pro-
ducts cannot start to market because OF
the currency panic or currency famine.
They will begin to go to market the
moment the banks resume payment OF
their obligations.
Mr. Cannon said in conclusion:
New York. the great clearinghouse
Of the now United States, was the first
to suspend payment Of currency. 1t
must be the first to resume the pay
ment Of currency, and the moment New
York resumes that will unlock the 3d.
900, 900, 900 Of currency and thereby re-
store confidence. In addition to this,
it will restore credit and as 80 per cent
Of the business Of the United States
is done upon credit, such restoration Of
currency will at once restore credit
equal to twice the whole volume Of the
currency. I am led to believe that the
deposit Of public money In the banks
under the law, the importation Of gold.
the rapid increase of national currency
by the bank supplemented bv the hearty
cooperation of the secretary OF the
treasury and the president. will, In the
near future. enable New York to re-
sumo the pavment Of currency and the
balance Of the country will promptly
follow suit"
