One View of Se Sickness.
A physician who for over six years has
made a careful trial of ull the so called spe
cilles for sea sickness entertains little doubt
that in a large majority of cases the imagina
t ion is the sonn e of trouble. For instance,
he has, on several occasions, seen Indies siif

not the slightest motion. Iced stimulants

How to Take Medicine.
F.lizalieth H. Kchofleld tells how to take
medicine us follows: Hitter tonics, such as
quinine, should be taken half an hour before
meals; iron, oils and acids, after meals, that
they may b digested with the foisl. Iodide
of potassium is always giveti after meals; it
issuidtolie lo liable then to disorder di
gestion. Klllelent I'lii'mulii for Astluuii.
Iii the treatment of asthma Dr. Cuwuiave
de la Roche has found iodide of potassium,
associated with cow's milk, very efficient,
and gives the following formula: Distilled
water, a hundred and llfty grams; Iodide of
potassium, eight grams; one tahlcspoonrul of
the solution in a cup of milk, tw ice a day.
The Iteiiioval of Superfluous Hair.
The removal of suerfhious hair from the
skin is jsissible, Isith by means of depilatories
and by electricity. The former are mostly
preparations of sulphide of barium or sul
phide of calcium, and the process by elec
tricity is very slow, each hair root having to
be killed separately.
SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.
Manners end Custom Practiced In
Tollte Society.
In considering tho training or children in
the observances of good society an authority
on such matters is of opinion that "a child
will reilieinls'l-a word spoken in secret that
would pass! y him unheeded if it is mentioned
in the presence of others. Faults may be
corrected very easily if taken in this manner.
The rublike is ft sacred sis-recy. A public
correction, except it iw for a flagrant act of
discourtesy, should never lie inflicted upon a
child, and it never is in wisely conducted
households." Iu fashionable city society
"children never appear except on birthdays
ornt weddings when there are invited guests
in the drawing room. On tln-so occasions, if
propel ly bred, their manners will lie unob
trusive und gentle. If a little telils-st nous or
over hilarious, and a word of disupprovul is
Insufficient, the little rebel is sent off to the
nursery without further remonstrance, (hie
such lesson is quite enough for nn entire
childhood for most, children. This treatment
may seem severe, but it is a fact that one
punishment of this kind is far less Intolerable
und injurious to a child's tcnqier than that
constant nagging and rebuking in the pres
ence of visitors which was too frequently en
dunl by boih guests und children before eti
quette forbade it, refusing to tolerate longer
this public offense to good tii-ste and decent
manners. Those w ho have not the wisdom to
accept a disupprovul of nagging and scolding
small iiooplo before guests because it is coarse
and unw ise will lx sure to change their fam
ily usages in this mutter as stsm as they know
that in polite society it is pronounced laid,
very bad form."

Miss U.wiks, of Ottawa, who has been

Canal Supt. Lelghton, of Lockport, was
In tuwutliis week.
The river Is lower than It has ever been
In the remembrance of the oldest luhab!
t int. The mills have been able to jun
most of the time, but with decreased
mwer.
The Fit kb Tkaiikh, with the remainder
d the Ottawa press, got things badly
mixed on the power quetlon, and has giv
en the Dayton mill owners Borne unueces
sary scoring. The Green and Stadden lease
with the Mate provides for one half of the
water liming In Fox river, of which the
.state U to have nue-fourth of the river, and
Green and Studden one fourth of the river,
(not one elghtli as the FitKK Thaukh had
it lust week.) These two-fourths must be
drawn first, even If the other one half runs
down the river.
The Ottawa, power is third class, and
when only one fourth ot the river is drawn
through the feeder, as It is during eight
or uiiie months of tk-e yeur, the Dayton
power Is entiied to all the wuter except
what Is necessary for canal purposes.
Green unI Stadden were not foolish
enough, us the Ottawa press would have
the public Infer, to give away all their
rights when they gave the Mate a nght-of.
way and one-half of their power. Any
lease or agreement made between the State
and the Hydraulic Company cannot uflect
the original und right of way lease.
In lSTti Mr. Wm. Thomas brought an
injunction suit against Messrs. Williams
and Sweet.er to prevent them from locat
lng their paper mill on the power nt Day
ton. The claim was made then, as It is
now, that we were using more water than
we were entitled to. Judge Leland dis
missed the suit, and decided that the Day
ton jxiwer had preference over the hy
draulic power, and In time of low w ater the
side cut should be closed so as to keep a (I
foot bend In the canal. If this could not
be maintained, the Dayton fourth could be
I drawn on.
I The present condition of affairs is this:
The mill owners have agreed w ith Capt.
Lelghton to confine themselves strictly to
their one fourth, and to run as long as there
is water.
The Hydraulic Co. is entitled to the sur
plus water of the canal, and, as there is no
surplus from Fox river now (all of the wa
ter being used by the canal and the Dayton
mills), water Is being drawn from the oth
er level at Marseilles to supply power for
the Ottawa mills. Occasional.
