Has a Hard Job.

There are events occurring from
time to time in every community
which, if reported in local paper,
would create a connection little
dreamed of. What to report and
what not to report often perplexes
the editor. He is often justly ac-
cused of cowardice and favoritism,
when all the time he is looking to-
ward the good reputation of the
town where his lot is cast. The
editor from necessity almost con-
stantly finds himself between two
fires, and whichever way he turns he
is sure to be unjustly treated. This
is one of the pleasures of the news

BRINK WATER
THE BODY CRIES FOR PLENTY
OF 1T.
Some Hints on the Subjects Tha

Act On.
Few of US drink an adequate quah-
tity of water. How many drink a
quart day? How many say, "Oh.
never touch it," Look about you
in the street car, if you will, ami
note the ruddy complexion, fair skin,
yigor of body and mental force of
some individuals, and the mottled
skin, sallow complexion and listless-
ess of others. Such difference are no:
always temperamental, nor are they
entirely due to mental and physical
endowments. One man observes the
obligations of health as to diet, ex-
ercise and fresh air; another can
neglects them.
All life demands water. Sixty
per cent of all the tissues of the
human body is water. Hence it fol-
lows that, without free use of good
water, health is impossible. Blood,
bone and muscle demand it. The
blood is the vehicle by which nour-
ishment is carried to all the tissue
of the body, but it does this only
by reason of the water it contains,
which is the solvent of such nour-
ishment. The muscles are rendered
soft, pliable and elastic by reason
of the water entering into their
structure.
In the processes of digestion and
absorption many of the food ele-
ments are dissolved by water. Thus
it follows that constant supply
of water is our daily need.
The skin is one CT the most i'm
portant organs Of the human body.
BY the perfect function of it's two
millions and more of sweat-glands
a man loses each twenty-four hours
one sixty-fourth of his body weight.
This loss, which is greater than that
sustained through the action of the
lungs, is the evaporation of water
surcharged with poison from body
waste. And what is true OF the skin
is equally true Of the lungs and klG-
neys. Each is an organ of elimina-
ton.
Without water there can be no
life. We know. that it enters into
every structure of the human body.
AS to it's source-to be sure, we con-
sumo large quantities Of water with
the intake of fruits, vegetables, meat.
tea and coffee. But these should not
be the sole source of supply. How
much water shall I drink in a day?'
To such inquiry no fixed allowance
can be stated, since our needs vary
as our age, habits, and occupations
vary; and the quantity may reason
ably vary between one pint and three
or four pints per individual.
While water may be drunk with
food as an aid to digestin and 90
sorption-and it were better taken
at the close of meal-care should
be observed not to defeat the pur-
pose of thorough mastication by
washing into the stomach solid
foods i'll prepared for digestion by
that organ. A glass of cold wate'
on going to bed and one taken on
rising in the morning is a good
habit.
