Water Cures Bad Nerves.

English nerve specialist, recent
ly said, In an address, that all
Inconsistencies - that is people
with unhealthy nerves - have
nothing more than nerves that
are dry, and suffer from an in
sufficiency of fluid in the tissues
of the body, which really go to
make up the body's fabrication.
Most people, he says, probably
suffer in degree from this, even
if they are not conscious of any
definite symptoms, says the New
York American. He believes
this disease could easily be eradi-
Gated If the people would only
supply their systems with plenty
of good, clear, cold water.
The human body is so adjusted
that one part cannot suffer with
out all other parts suffering. If
by neglect our nerves are dried
up through lack of fluid, then 1t
is certainty that the wheels of
our intricate body machinery are
being clogged by reasons of waste
matter which is not washed
away.
l. can be readily seen that by
the use of water a threefold SER
vice is done. 1t feeds, it washes
and it carries away the cinders
of the body furnace, and through
the want of it we are exposed to
many and great dangers. The
tissues become too dry, the blood
becomes thick, unhealthy and
flows sluggishly, and the retained
waste of the body sets up a con-
dition which the doctors call
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS." or self pois-
oning.
This condition may give rise
to almost any known symptoms,
from the simple pimple to heart
failure, and is really responsible
for most of the semi-inyalids
with whom the world is largely
peopled.
Mr.. Boughton then gave GER
tain rules which he said would
tend to make for healthy set of
nerves and a healthier and hap
pier body. He observed that
people do not all need the same
amount of water, and it may
take q little experimenting to
find out how much should be
taken 10 each case. 1t has been
stated by physicians that five or
six plnts should be taken during
the twenty-four hours. Of this,
he said, only a moderate quanti-
ty should be taken with meals,
but 1T was q great mistake to
take no water with the meals,
but 1t was greater mistake to
wash food down with water,
especially with ice water.
DR.. Boughton said the best
time for water drinking is at
night time and early in the
morning, and it is we'll to form
the habito of slowly slipping during
the bath and while dressing two
or three glasses of cold-though
not ce-cold-water, and then to
sip two or three more glasses
again at bedtime, and again two
or three more glasses an hour or
two before luncheon and before
dinner.
Then the doctor assured his
audience that in a very short
time the value of this habit
would become apparent in the
general improvement of digestion
temper and appearance.

A CURIOUS DISTINCTION.

The awkward working Of the parcel
post law has been pointed out in general
| aud in detail. The government. in or.
der to instruct parccl.senders how TO
use the law, has issued huge pam.
phlct aud checkcrcd map in immense
dous to put the law into effect. and
the difficulty Of working its puzzles out
is acceptuatcd by the arbitrary rcp1i-
lations made. There would seem TO
be no reason, for instance. WHY any
postage stamp should not DO available
for the transmission of parcels by post.
as long as the full postage required
is paid, Why should there he any dis
tinctiou as between parcel post stamps
and other stamps any more than be
tween the stamps used on letters and
those on second aud third class mail
In postal practice the same series of
stamps arc usable for letters, for cir
culars, for newspapers, for books. aud
for any postal matter. Why should not
the same stamps be available for the
parcel post1
Again, the zone system. which is
not a zone system nj all. but u checker
system, requires unjust discrimination
as between different localities. Thus,
persons who live on the outer rim oil
tho various zones have to pav good
deal moro to get 2 parcel through the
post into almost immediately adloin-
ing postohces in another zone Than
TO send it much greater distance
within their own zone. This zone sys
ten, moreover, is merely revival OF
the old distance system of generations
ago, whereby letters or newspapers were
ricd. and not by fiat rate as now.
1t is q marvel so sec that retroercSsiou
to old forms incorporated in this new
parcel post legislation. When the
United States undertakes to transmit
letter, newspaper, a book, a circu
lar, or anything heretofore ordinarily
mailable, ii takes the matter TO any
part Of the United States at o given
rate of postage; no difference is made
as between a short distance and
long distance, But this distance ques-
tion is brought into play again in the
parcel post. 1t will have to be done
away with, evidently. in order TO bring
that post up to date.
A number OF curious questions arise
also In connection with the parcel post
service. Senders Of parcel post pack

THE ALUMINIUM TRUST.

II has been evident all the time that
the legislation of this country has been
directed against the trusts, that it
wonld be the most likely move on the
part Of trusts to form international
combinations, dividing the world S mar.

their business without reference to the
local legislation of nations and from
such advantageous points in the world
as would offer their headquarters the
best facilities, precisely as New Jersey
has been nursery and protector of
trusts among the States of this Union
The first move in this international
alliance for the control Of the markets
of tie world was the agreement be-
tween our Standard Oil corporation
and the Russian oil producers, which
agreement was very much 10 the ad.

it was able. by reason OF its great
facilities for distribution. TO occupy
the most OF The world whereas the
slower methods Of the Russians limited
their activities TO a very small part Of
the world S markets for oil.
Then came the international steel
trust, which Judge Gary was able to
fix and dominate In this also the
United States operators. through the

and they were able. by reason of the
shrewdness d their manipulation and
the huge output of their plants and
the facilities they had for distribution.

And now W, have d statement that

proof OF this developed in The hearing

Arthur V. Davisof the Aluminium Com

The parcel post may carry fish, sau-

NEW JERSEYS TRUST LAWS.

President. elect Wilson appears to be
getting into action, now that he has
begun to declare himself. in excellent
fashion. 1t will be remembered that
during the campaign, Governor Wilson
was much embarrassed in tho discussion
Of the trust and monopoly problem by
the fact that New jersey is the great
trust -charterinG State. the home of the
trusts, and that he had done nothing
as Governor of New jersey to cradi.
cato the trust cvi from that State.
Having become Thoroughly aroused on
that question, because of his being on
the defensive, and it being impossible
for him to make alv satisfactory reply
20 the assaults made upon his State
and upon him by reason Of its being
the home of the trusts, and he doing
nothing about 1t, lie has now resolved
upon vigorous acton. In his message
to the New Jersey Legislature. sent on
Tuesday, he denoinces the trust laws
Of his State, say, that New JERSEY
has become notorious on account of
them and demands that the odium at
taching TO the StGe as E'the home of
trusts" shall be lifted. He docs not
want the State to be the home Of the
trusts; he does no; want it to be said
throughout the United States that he,
r determined foe q trusts and mopopo-
lies, will consent IS Governor of New
Jersey 10 the continuance Of the noto.
rious evils connected with tho incor-
poration oil trusts n New Jersey.
In this Governor Wilson has updoubt-
edly taken the pro,er step. for he can
hardly pass as foe OF trusts if as
Governor Of New Jersey he does not
protest in the mot vigorous fashion
against the trust policy of that State.
To be sure, New JGsey gets large reve.
nue. from the incorporation Of these
vast trusts, but Governor Wilson de-
clares that this is revenue which the
Stale cannot affoid TO take. and he
demands reform and demands it in
earnest, imperious tones. Whether he
VIII be able TO win the Legislature of
New Jersey to his view on this matter
remains to be seen but in taking the
step that he has, Governor Wilson pre-.
serves his own consistency and yindi-
Gates his own record
