HEALTH. HOW TO EBB? WELL. The Best Disinfectant. “ What is the best disinfectant i" asked an anxious mother of a very prominent physician. “ Cleanliness, madam, andfresh air," he replied romptly. And here is an. other example 0 the same kind : “ Is it not odd that your children should have had so few contagious diseases 2” said a friend to a woman of fashion, whose large family had been singularl) free from illness. “ I30 you know I really think it is because their Eng; lish governess keeps them so wellscrubbed, was the reply. “ She has a theory that it destroys erms, and the children are washed and brns ed whenever they come in. I really believe she is right, and at all events it has given them rosy, healthy skins." Certain it is in any case that the two fundamental principles of fresh air audfresh water are the alpha and omega of hygiene; and, moreover, it is also unhappily true that the neglect of these essentialsis not confi ned by any means to the poorer classes. Few, comparatively, seriously consider that the proper drainage of the body by the pores is as necessary to the well being of our earthly tabernacle as sanitary lumbing is for our houses. Dr. Brown, 0 Edinburgh, in his lectures to workingmen on “ Health " to 113 them “ first and foremost, consider your skin, take reat care of it, for on its health a great dea depends; keep it clean, keep it warm, keep it dry, give it air. You should take time every morning to wash, not only your face, but your throat and breast with cold water, and rub yourself quite dry With a hard towel till you glow all over, and on every Saturday night you must manage to ,- ive a regular scrubbing of your whole body.” Of course he was speaking to work- 'mgmen to whom the daily “ tub” was an impossibility, but even in these latter days, when Dame Fashion has decreed that ma- l tutinal tubbing is necessary, it is by no means as general a custom as one would su pose. t is certain that the love of water is not as inherent a quality with our men as with our British cousins. We are greatly on the mend. however, in this respect, and this generation of tall, finely~forlned youths and maidens proves that the regime of the day is a. good one. There are a few general principles to observe in the hygiene of a house that it might be well to impress upon young mothers, although the lack of observance { which is seen is not due to want of know- ! ledge so much as want of care. Every mother 3 should see' by personal supervision that 1 each member of the family becomes habitu- ated to sleep with the window more or less open according to the season. If there are , stationary basins in the rooms or in the ' adjoining bath-rooms, she should eiijom the constant and free use of disinfectants. 1f ' any one is obliged to sleep in a room with such a basin, 8. good plan is to throw a damp towel over it before going to bed. Overheating the house, too, with young children is especially to be guarded against, ._ as it is very apt to cause colds and croup. ! Watch the daily bath carefully ; many can- I not stand the daily plunge without ill effect, who would be greatly benefited by sponging and vigorous rubbing with a course towel. For those who dread the cold the following i, is a delightful way of taking an exhilarating ll morning tub : . Stand in hot water deep eno the ankles, fill a basin with cold water, _ sponge off the body rapidly, and rub vigor- : ously, putting on warm flunuels before dry- ing the feet. In this way the most delicate person will not experience any chill. The, cat point is the rapidity with which it is g dime ; the whole bath should not exceed f two minutes. We close these suggestions{ by a quotation from still another eminent l doctor who has written a great deal on this 2 very subject : “ Icannot overrate the neces- l to cover . sity for plenty of fresh air sunshine and I perfect cleanliness,” he says, “ both iii the . house and about the person ; and it is only ‘ when these primary rules of hygiene are ~ fully carried out that we can hope to keep the health which is given us.” Good Suggestions for Dyspeptica. A writer, evidently of a practical turn of | mind, tells a contemporary how easily the _ wakeful dyspeptic can be made to slip off ' into the land of dreams. He says : . “ The dyspeptic. of course, eats a light} The jewelled and jetted bonnets, which _ MACDONALD MANUFACTURING UO'V, THE DEATH AGOITY. Al'hyslclan Says It Exists lain): in the Beholder-'5 Imagination. “ Man persons wonder," said the house doctor 0 a well-known hospital to a re- porter, “ how physicians can watch unmov- ed the death of persons whose dissolution is seemingly accompanied by evidence of great suffering, and the remark is a common one that doctors are heartless and nnfeeling. This harsh criticism is founded on a wrong idea of things. The fact is that what is known as the death agony islargely restrict- ed to the imagination of the watcher at the bedside of the dying person. The visible spasms and distortions of the facial muscles which in many cases mark the ending of life are not only painless, but take place uncon- sciously so far as the dying person is con- corned. “ Even in cases of death by hanging. where the prolonged agony of the sufi'erer is feelineg described by witnesses, it is rea- sonab y certain that in a few moments the person becomes unconscious and dies in that condition. Such has been the experience of persons accidentally or purposely hanged, ut afterward resuscitated. It is a fact that people who have been nearly drowned agree in the statement that after a few moments of painful struggle a feeling of tranquillity ensues. “ The suffering is while the resuscitated person is being brought back to conscious- ness. Then it is he often sufi'ers physical pain and mental misery. It is- a merciful dispensation of God and nature that, when the last moments of the dying man are at hand, vital forces give out, and the long- drawn-out gasps for breath come and go, the apparent sufferer is happily in a coma.- tose condition, and so passes painlessly into the other life.” â€".â€"â€".â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"-â€" The Lost Snowdon Guide. Early on Friday morning a. party of 170 men started from Llanberis to search for the ody of Griflith Pritchard, the Snowdon guide who perished in a snowstorm on the - 25th of March, while descending from the summit. Pritchard reached the top in safety, but was advised not to attempt the descent, as there was every indication of a storm. He resolved to do so, however, and was not seen afterwards. Several parties searched the mountain, but the depth of the snow and the severity of the weather precluded any hope of recovery. The fine weather of the past few days has dissolved the snow, and on Friday the numerous searchers di- vided themselves into several parties, taking all sides of the mountain. Thomas John Roberts discovered the unfortunate guide on he Rhyd-ddu side, four and a. half miles from Llanberis. His hat was firstpicked up, and then the body was discovered, standing, in a leaning attitude, beneath an overhang- ing rock. It was in such a state of decom- position that it was resolved to prepare a cofiin in which to take it to Llanberis.

Or, it she rules him, never shows she rules"â€" is a type of wife happily becoming common in these days when women may have good health, cheerful dispositions, strong nerves and clear minds, simply through the use of Dr. Picrce’s Favorite Prescription. Before the reputation and use of this remedy be- came world-wide, irritable, cross, nervous, debilitated women, suffering with displace- ments, hysteria, and every female disease, were the rule rather than the exception. The “ Favorite Prescription” has proven to gbe the key too. long and happy lifeâ€"the key which effectually looks out that old array of uterine disorders, periodical ains, weak back, prolopsus, inflammation, 11 cera- tion, nervous exhaustion and general debil- ity.
