There is food for thought in the Republicans
ment with reference to the financial side of this Christ

saloons is a paying proposition from money stand
point remember that such the of William
Lewis be multiplied many many times in every
county where the saloon is licensed.
"Would it not be act of charity, act
of simple justice to the wife and children, who
are the real sufferers, to reduce this mans
bail and let him go to help his famly?' asks
the Republican
Sure-but would it not also be an act of charity,
a simple act of justice to the wife and children of
William Lewis and the wives and children of hundreds
like him throughout Illinois, to abolish the saloon
which makes easy for victims of alcoholism to fall?
By the way can the voters of Belvidere who voted

share of the responsibility for the pitiable condition of
the wife and family of William Lewis?

WATER CURES NERVOUSNESS
English Specialist Says Unhealthy
Nerves Simply Mean They
-|- - Are Dry, $500 ~f..

CLEVELAND Leader: Water lis declar.
ed n of the best cures known fol
extreme nervousness.
DIR. Harvey tBoughton, the English
nerve specialist, recently said In ar
address that all neurasthenics, that IL
people with unhealthy nerves, have
nothing more than nerves that are
dry. and suffer from an insuf1ciency
OF fluid in the tissues of the body
which really go to make up the body's
vibration. Most people, he says prob
ably suffer in a degree from this, even
though they are not conscious of any
definite symptoms. He believes this
disease could easily be eradicated II
people would only supply their sys-
TENS with plenty Of good. clear. cold
water. -..
The human body is 80 adjusted THAI
one part cannot suffer without all
other parts suffering: II by neglect
our nerves are dried UP through lack
wheels Of our intricate body machin-
cry are being clogged by reason OF
waste matter. which is not washed
away. -.. IT..
1t can readily be seen that by the
use Of water a three-fold service Is
done. 1t feeds, 1t. washes, and it car
ries away the cinders of the body fur
mace. and through the want of it we
are exposed to. many and great dan
gers. The tissues become too dry, the
blood becomes thick, unhealthy and
flows sluggishly, and the retained
waste of the body sets up a condition
which the doctors. call "autointoxica-
tion', or self poisoning.
This condition may give rise to al
~ ~ -. ~.
simple pimple to heart failure, and is
really responsible for most of the
semi -invalids with whom the world Is
largely peopled.
DR. Boughton then gave certain
rules that should be observed to IN
sure a healthy set of, nerves and a
healthier and happier body. He OBJ
served. that people do not all need the
same amount of water, and 1t may
take a little experimenting to find out
just how much should be taken in
each case. 1t has been stated by ply
sicians that five or six pints should be
taken during the twenty-four hours.
OF this, he said, only a moderate
quantity should be taken with the
meals, but it was a great mistake to
take no water. with the meals, but
that it was a greater mistake to wash
food down with water, and especially
with ice water.
DR.. B%oughton said the best time for
water drinking is at night time and
early morning, and it is we'll to form
the habit of slowly slipping, during the
bath and while dressing, two or three
glasses Cd cold-though not ice cold
water, and then to sip two or three
more glasses at bedtime, and again
two or three more glasses an hour or
two before luncheon and before din
ner.
Then the doctor assured his audi
ence that in a very short time the
value OF this habit would become ap-
parent. in the general Improvement in
digestion, temper and appearance.

Keeping Young.

Golfers Weekly: We have been
talking of late on the advantages Of
keeping young. We have urged youth
to &c ahead and be itself, although it
needs no urging. But how a we
prolong that YOUTH. Is there a set
age when it must disappear? Need it
vanish at, say, 80 years? 1t Is only
the dawn fiush2 There is a way pro-
vided by which the sum nay be bid
den to stand still. The way was long
ago shown us by the noblest Of our
New Englanders! Books, travel. So
siety, solitude-these will keep a man
young, because they feed the sources
of his life. They rep1enish the we'll
