Lille Campbell told the story to

friend had been pursuaded TO come
to Florence by a woman who lived
there. Saying that everything had
been misrepresented to them. They
were told that this was a fine place
to live and that they could easily
obtain employment and would get
along well.
Lille accepted her story and came
down here with this woman Friday.
When they arrived at this woman S
house they at once realized that thcy
could not be satisfied at such a place.
They became dissatisfied and wanted
to leave and were i'll treated h. this
stay. They said that they were de-
termined to leave that place and go
back to their people in Columbia If
possible.
They went to the residence of a
citizen about 10 o'clock Saturday

DRINK MORE WATER.
MOST PEOPLE DRINK ENTIRELY
TOO LITTLE.
IL Should BE Taken Chiefly Between
Meals and Not While Eating-Give
the Water Cure Trial.

Meals and Not While Eating-Giv,
the Water Cure Trial.
One of the most universal dietetit
| failings is to neglect to take enough
water into the system. When one
stops to think of the many functions
which water has to perform in the
body, the need of large supply is
realized. The uses of water in the
body may be summarized as follows
1t furnishes the blood with fluid
medium so that nourishment may be
taken to all parts of the body and
the waste removed. and this causes
rapid changes in the tissues.
2. 1t enters into the composition
of all tissues of the body.
3. 1t forms the chief ingredient of
all the fluids of the body and main
tains their proper degree of dilution.
4. 1t serves to distribute the heat
of the body.
5. 1t regulates the temperature of
the body by the process of absorption
and evaporation.
1t is estimated that water com
poses about 20 per cent of the entire
body weight. and it is an almost
universal solvent. Its Importance.
therefore to the system cannot be
overrated.
The amount of water required by
y healthy individual in twenty-four
hours is on an average between sixty
five and seventy ounces, besides
Jbout twenty ounces taken in as an
ingredient of solid food, thus max
ing a tota. of eigtty-tive to n'ncty
ounces.
A great many people leading sed-
entary lives take too little water. and
also err in taking 1t for the most
part when eating. A certain amount
a water should form part of every
meal, and particularly is it necessary
to those who have very active diges-
tiOns.
1t assists the escape from the
stomach of those substances made
soluble by the action of the gastric
juice and the churning effect OF the
stomach, and will oftentimes make
digestion comfortable when it other
wise would be attended with dis
treSs.
While some liquid should be taken
with the meals, the foods should not
he washed down, for this interferei
with digestion especially starch
digestion), and may also cause the
individual to swallow morsels of food
altogether too large and resisting for
the stomach TO manage comfortably.
The proper time for taking the
bulk of fluid is between meals, par
ticularly early in the morning before
breakfast, and at night before retir
ing.

5. Brown of Lancaster was found in
room 264, Wrights hotel, Friday
morning about O'Clock in an un-
conscious condition, due to the in
halation of gas. 1t is possible that
he would have been asphyxiated with
in half an hour if the odor of the
escaping gas had not been discover

Many seemed to think tnat Mr..
Brown had deliberately turned the
gas on in an attempt to end his life.
but Mr.. Robert C.. Wright gives it as
his opinion that Mr.. Brown turned
that his near call for death was ac-
cidental. Mr.. Brown left the hotel
about 10 o'clock, before he could be

Charlotte left On being informed
the time Of departure of the q

the clerk, Mr.. Cronenburg, that he
did not care to get up that early and
left call for o'clock. He paid his
nights lodging in advance and was
assigned to room No. 264.
When the porter went up to call
Mr.. Brown he received no response
from his knock on the door. The
transom was slightly open and the
fumes OF escaping gas were detected.
The matter was reported at the Office
of the hotel Immediately and hurri-
ed investigation was made. No re-
sponse came to repeated knocks on
the door and II was finally forced
open. Mr.. Brown was found lying
across the bed in an unconscious con-

on.
DR.. Mcintosh was summoned and
after working with Mr.. Brown for
quite a while restored him to con-
sciousness. 1t is said at the hotel
that Mr. Brown had little to say re-
garding the affair and at 10 o'clock
walked out of the hotel.
