increases it. The same may be said of
the regular death -rate, and accounted
for from the fact that the population
has iu a great measure in;,resised, and,
of course the death -rate iu proportion.
Yet, there is by far too large a number
of deaths by drowning, and if a system
of cerefulnoee rrae eatabliiehed, we might
hope to hear of snoh instances but eel-
dom. The present age lives entirely at
too *eget a rate, end the world's citizeua

Zitty to ansass some of its wealth.
True, a considerable portion of their
tune, or that of aotuo of thorn, is given
to laxative industry, but not to that
clear of it which calls forth the renames
lar or yet the mental powers... 'l.he de.
bilitatiug iaflueuce is felt everywhere.
Our occupntious are such as to require
something oleaginous to make the
clock -work of our system run along
eu oothily. The sports and pastime
of the day certainly assist this to some
extent, yet they, are misted with a sort
of mammal lager that at their clew tell
haaldl'y on the system. Something
more braeirtg, more develepiue„ which
o .lira forth ell the energies, at the same
time giciug pleasure and comfort is
minima. This may bo had in limiting.
By Stine this may be thought to have a
serious amebae]; in hs danger. Not

of the field snorts, if the proper cttoia•
tititbe given, a little care taken and
presentee of mine] exercised. Nothing

t3i^erat each etch;' on or in the water. We
would have less dyspoptio and fewer
chroniea than et present, and with proe
per care, n greater discount on Ninths

Itoya. liu.,..as°o :society of England has

"Avoid lathing within three hours

tigue or any cause, or when the° body
is cooling after perspiration, and avoid
bathing; altogether in the open air if,
after being a short time in the water,
there is a e+er,se asf ehillu:ss with numb-
ness of tiara .hands and the feet; but
bathe wh•'n the body is warm, provided
no the is lost in getting into the wat-
er. Avoid c iillilig the • body by iittiug
or standing undressed ou the banks or
in boats after having been iu the water
err renanuiug too long in the Water,but
leave the water immediately there is the
slig 3test feeling of chi i 1. s The vig-
orous anti strong may bathe' early iu
the nluruiug on an empty stomach. but
the young dud thoat who aro weak bad
better bathe t':vo or three hours after a
iimeal; the best time for such is from
two or three hours after breakfast.
Those who are subject to attacks of gid-
diness orfaintnees, and Who suffer froni
palpitation and Jther Resists of cilsOom-
ft," t at the heart should not 'bathe
without first consulting their medical
aivist r."
