The Knelpp Cure Our Newest Craze
and What it Really is.
Father Sebastian Kneipp, parish priest
in the little, unheard of village of Worish-
ofen, in Bavaria, studied medicine that he
might doctor the sick of his parish who
could not afford to employ a regular prac-
titioner. In the course of his reading he
found a little hook, one chapter of which
treated of the uses and abuses of water in
sickness.
That was nearly fifty years ago. From
this beginning the priest developed his
theory of curing diseases by water and
‘‘simples’’—the common country herbs.
Study and experiment convinced him that
the drastic allopathic system of medicine
then practiced in Germany was not only
unnecessary, but harmful. From using
baths as a general invigorator he proceeded
to the making of local applications of water
for the cure of specific ailments, Helieving
that all disease being merely the harboring
of foreign or impure matter or germs in the
system, the fundamental principle of cure
was to perfect the circulation of the blood.
Thus, he argued, all impurities might be
removed and the skin restored to a state of
normal, healthy perspiration, to perform
its share of the work.
He applied this simple system to the
sick of his village. More and more he es-
chewed the use of drugs, employing only
in the mildest forms the herbs which he
gathered in the surrounding fields. The
cures he wrought were miraculous. The
fame of them made its way to the outside
world. Worishofen, from a speck of a
hamlet, became a city in population, and
the greatest cure centre in Europe.
Princes and plutocrats, bent and crippled
with disease, flocked in despair to Worish-
ofen. The poor came, too, and were treat-
ed without money and without price. The
town could not harbor the people who
went to it in quest of health. Building
after building was erected, newspapers
were started to chronicle the progress of
the Kneipp cure, and Kneipp societies,
both of doctors and laymen, sprang up all
over Europe. ;
Now America’s turn has come.
HOW TO TAKE THE KNEIPP CURE.
To apply the Kneipp principles for the
establishment of general health is a simple
process. To treat with them the danger-
ous forms of disease which the doctrine is
declared to be able to cure requires much
greater skill, and should not be attempted
without careful previous study of Mgr.
Kneipp’s books. Going barefoot is the
first principle. After that comes wading
in the coldest water. This should be done
not for longer than four minutes.
A further step is walking in new-fallen
snow.
. The four divisions of the water treatment
proper are ablutions, baths, douches and
bandages. There are three ablutions—for
the whole body, for the upper body and
for the lower body. In all these water ap-
plications the water should be as cold as
possible, and the time of exposure as
short as possible. Great care must he tak-
en in dealing with children and old people.
In all cases apply the water slowly, quiet-
ly, carefully, gently.
The Kneipp system prohibits rubbing or
drying the body after using water, except
upon the hair, which must, after douches
have been used, be dried quickly and as
thoroughly as possible. Except where the
patient returns immediately to bed after
the bath, some exercise is insisted upon to
maintain a warmth and circulation.
Quickness is essential. A coarse towel
is preferable to a sponge. In no case
should the body be rubbed dry. These ab-
lutions are especially useful to start perspi-
ration in influenza. Severe colds and ca-
tarrh may be cured in this way. These
ablutions should be taken two or three
times a week.
The baths are the second steps in the sys-
tem. They should be taken in a bath-
house with a stone floor. The first is the
eye bath. Dip the forehead and eyes into
the water with the eyes open, hold them
there five or six seconds, and, when re-
moving, wink the eye ; repeat this three
times at intervals of a minute.
The arm bath is used when gout attacks
the joints of hands or arms. Ahscesses and
paralysis in cases of children may be cured
by taking two warm baths and one cold
one, and so continuing. The foot bath is
better cold than warm, but should not be
prolonged after the first sensation of cold
has given place to a feeling that the water
is no longer chilly.
The half bath reaching up to the chest,
should not last longer than from two to
six seconds. It braces and strengthens the
body, develops heat, and has a greater
influence on the circulation of the blood
than any other application. Immediate ex-
ercise must be taken after coming out.
This bath is efiicacious in relaxed or inact-
ive condition of the bowels and in cases of
general weakness, hut too much of it must
be avoided.
The cold full bath is most powerful.
“Every part of the body except the head
should he in the water. It is well to take
from four to six seconds to step in and get
thoroughly covered.
For the care of local difficulties—though
Mgr. Kneipp declares that these ultimate-
ly affect the whole body, the douches are
considered the best. The best baths and
ablutions strengthen the general health,
while these local cures are being affected.
There are the upper douche, the head
douche, knee douche, hip douche, back
douche, arm douche and full douche.
These are administered with a hose, or
preferably with a sprinkling pot, and re-
quire considerfible experience for the prop-
er doing of them. The head douche begins
on the right or left side, or behind the ear,
and continues to the middle of the head.
From this point the water must flow even-
ly over the whole head.
In fact, it is essential in all these douch- |
es that the water should spread evenly
over the entire part involved. One can of
water is sufficient for the head douche,
which restores healthy condition in all
parts of the head. The face douche is em-
ployed in case of ulcers, lupus and skin dis-
eases which attack the face. The ear
douche, for deafness, consists of pouring
the water, first on one side of the head and
then on the other, around about the ears.
After this the head should be warmly
covered until quite dry. It may he taken
five times a week.
The breast douche is taken lying on the
back. It should not be used by persons
with heart trouble. Its mission isto 1oos-
en the mucus in the chest. The arm
douche begins with the fingers, each one of
which must be douched, and continues up |
to the shoulder.
The whole process must |
heart, lungs, bronchial tubes and vocal
chords, should be taken gradually.
Vinegar should be mixed in the water at
first. .
“Kneipping’’ includes a complex system
of wet bandages. They are head bandage,
neck bandage, short bandage (for the up-
per part of the body), foot bandage, and,
lastly, the full bandage, or ‘‘Spanisk man-
tle.” These bandages are the most diffi-
cult of the Kneipp applications. The
cloths in all instances should be linen.
Catarrh.—Wash the body three times a
week, from your bed or on rising, with
perfectly cold water. But it must be done
in a minute. Take also two cold half baths
in the week, for one or two seconds, and
wash upper half of body three times a week
in early morning.
Consumption.—Begin with gentle knee
douche, then hip douche, and upper wash-
ing, morning and evening. Mix vinegar
with the water. Gradually arrive at back
douche and full douche. Nourishing diet.
Bandages, upper and lower, for night
sweats. Fenugreek tea, alternated with
salad-oil, twice daily for very bad cough.
Toothache.—Wade in cold water, to
draw off blood. Upper douche and head
douche daily. General water applications
will insure result.
Rheumatism and Gout.— Alternate warm
baths, of ten minutes’ duration, with cold
ones, increasing temperature of warm one
each time. Use douches in locality of pain.
Avoid acid or sweet foods.—New York
Journal.
A Tolerated Intemperance.
If aman starts out for a journey he is
accompanied by his appetite, and one of
the first things he finds to be done is to cul-
tivate the eating houses and the restaurants
at the stations where the train stops to eat.
In any place that he enters the dialogue is
the same. He asks the waiter what is to
be had to eat, and, after enumerating per-
haps sandwiches and pie, the inevitable
standby is coffee. It isn’t sandwhiches and
pie and milk or sandwhiches and pie and
tea or buttermilk, or beer, unless his tour
leads him to Bavaria, but coffee. If the
train stops but a minute or two at the sta-
tion, a coffee colored, shiny waiter heaves
alongside and announces that he has hot
coffee. And the traveler procures a cupful
hot enough to burn the gullet out of the
untrained, and drinks it with a feeling of
satisfaction. The aged maiden who is of
the party declares she does not care for
anything to eat, but she wants acup of
coffee. The deacon, who wouldn’t drink
any savage beverage under any :circum-
stances, is not particular about going out
for a lunch, but he would like to have some
coffee. Or, if you drop intoa restaurant
in town and ask for something to eat, when
you have given your order, the waiter, if
you have not specified it yourself, will say,
‘‘and coffee.” At the hotel the same ques-
tion is flung at you. The signs that con-
front you in the beaneries about town
call the attention to the excellence of the
coffee. The mew boarder, who comes to
Your hoarding house, overlooks the mys-
teries wrapped up in the hash, ‘and the sus-
picious marks on the puddled pat of butter
that tells how it was made of the rem-
nants of the pats of yesterday, and fixes
his attention on the coffee. The young
woman of the family will tell you she can
can make good coffee and without tell-
ing you whether she can make a bed
or a biscuit or a corn cake or wash
the dishes or cook a steak, will look
at you as though she had confessed to an
ability to satisfy all the needs of existence-

In the mining camps of Colorado, where
everything that is eaten is carried with
great difficulty into camp on the backs of
burros, coffee is one of the first things to be
considered in making up the pack. The
next thing is sugar to sweeten it with, and
then come in equal importance whisky,
bread and stick tobacco. In Constantino.
ple, where the religion of the Moslem for-
bids the use of wine, men sit inthe cafes
tippling on coffee as black as the Turkish
morality, and smoking cigarettes to keep
company. You go the Selamlik, where the
Sultan performs his devotions, and as a
guest you are expected to drink of the black
coffee that is passed around, strong as tan
liquor, and thick as soup. On the conti-
nent after you have dined you are offered
a nasty little cup of black coffee, strong
enough to destroy all the good in the din-
ner, and the most of the people drink it.
The coffee we buy in the United States
takes more money than our entire annual
output of silver to pay for. Great Britian,
France and Germany follow not far behind.
Raising coffee is “the chief occuption
of the whole Brazilian republic.

The coffee habit is a comparatively new
one among civilized mankind. It was un-
known in Western Europe three hundred
years ago, although its use in Africa and
Asia has been traced back nearly a thous-
and years. The effect of coffee on the human
system is a question of dispute among men
who profess to know. Some, with appar-
ent reason, argue that its use is highly bene-
ficial, both in affording elements that are
requisite to the bodily needs, and in aid-
ing the natural functions, while other in-
sist that it is a dangerous drug, exerting a
deleterious influence on the vital organs,
and productive of disease. Possibly both
sides of the argument have some justifica-
tion, as coffee is known to contain an active
principle that is marked in its action when
used by itself. The heart under its influ-
ence is excited, and in excess . serious dan-
gers threaten. On the other hand, the ber-
ry of the coffee tree contains some nutri-
tious principles, and perhaps they aid di-
gestion and assist the assimulation of the
food. All of which does not say whether
the expenditure of millions of dollars an-
nually for coffee is a good investment or
not. In all probability the use of coffee is
carried to an extreme as intemperate as
the use of whisky, although, a it is
hardly to be presumed that the one kind of
intemperance is followed by the evil re-
rults of the other. :
——Few persons are aware that the safe-
ty owes its origin to the fact that a certain
little Englishman had an abnormally short
pair of legs and a vaulting ambition to
ride the whirling wheel. J. H. Lawson,
of Coventry, England, is a man of diminu.
tive proportions, with the nether limbs of
a four-year-old. . About twenty years ago
when the murderous high-wheeled ‘ordi-
nary’ was in vogueas the only known form
of the bike, Mr. Lawson became filled with
a consuming desire to risk his neck on that
perilous machine along with the rest. His
short legs barred him out, so he set his
wits to work, had an ordinary cut down to
suit his own peculiar build, and out of the
result was evolved the chain-driven safety,

* Elephant Stories.
They Go to Show That the @reat Beasts Can Rea-
son—How One of the Huge Fellows Amused Him-
self at the Expense of a Hippopotamus—Protect-
ing Themselves From Annoyance.
In my opinion the elephant is the most
intelligent of all animals. He thinks for
himself, and no matter in what position he
may be placed, or what emergencies _he
may be called upon to meet, he seems to
be endowed With enough common sense to
be equal to all occasions. He has also a
strong sense of humor, which at times is so
marked as to be almost human.
This sense of the humorous was unusu-
ally well developed in an elephant I knew
in the Jardin des Plantes in Paris. He
was kept in a great inclosure out in the
open air, so that he had plenty of room to
roam about, In the same inclosure was a
large hippopotamus, for whose comfort
and amusement a great stone basin had
been bnilt and filled with water, and the
hippopotamus in turn furnished amuse-
ment for the elephant. It was quite early
one morning—before the hour for admitt-
ing the public to the garden—when I no-
ticed the elephant walking around on the
stone edge of the basin watching the hip-
tamus,
I felt quite sure that the elephant was up
to some prank, and I was not mistaken;
for, just as soon as the ears of the hippo-
potamus came in view, the elephant quick-
ly seized one of them with his trunk and
gave it a sudden pull. The enraged hip-
popotamus lifted his ponderous head clear
of the water and snorted and blew, but
every time he rose to take breath the ele-
phant would recommence his antics.
Around and around the beast would go,
keeping a sharp lookout for the little ears
of the hippopotamus, which he would
seize the moment they appeared. His evi-
dent delight in teasing his huge neighbo
was very comical, and there could be n
doubt that he thoroughly enjoyed it.
Again, one day the keeper placed some
food for the hippopotamus in a corner of
the inclosure, and at once the hippopota-
mus began to leave the water to get it,
but the elephant slowly ambled over to
the same corner, and arriving there first he
placed his four feet over the favorite food
in such a way that the hippopotamus
could not get at it, gently swayed his
trunk back and forth and acted altogether
as though he were there quite accidently,
until the garden was thrown open to the
public and he went forward to receive the
daily contributions of bread, cake, pie, etc.,
which were always offered him by his host
of admirers.
Elephants appear to take much enjoy-
ment in life and exhibit a good natured
spirit, even while at work. In the animal’s
quarters at Bridgeport, some time ago, two
little elephants showed evident pleasure in
the tasks that were set for them. Even in
their stable, when no trainer was about,
one little elephant would stand on its head
just as it was used to doing in the circus
and the other would look anxiously on
until its own turn came to stand on its
head and be admired by the other.
In his native clime, during the hot
hours of the day, the elephant usually
seeks the friendly shade of a grove of trees
80 as to shield himself from the burning
rays of the sum. Some time ago in Cen-
tral park the elephants in summer were
kept in an open inclosure where there were
no trees or shade of any kind, and during
the hot days, when the mercury was well
up in the nineties, the heat was almost un-
bearable. Intently watching the elephants
there were always many persons carrying
sunshades or umbrellas to protect them-
selves from the sun’s rays.
I wonder how many of those onlookers
realized that the elephants were carrying
sunshades, too, for such was really the
case. On the very hot days the great quad-
rupeds would take the hay that was given
them, or, when they could get it the newly
mown grass, and completely thatch their
backs with it to shield themselves from the
sun. They will sometimes do this same
thing in fly time to protect themselves
from being bitten, for, strange as it may
seem, the elephant’s skin is very sensitive.
In Africa there grows a tree called the
heglik tree, which bears fruit known by
the name of lolobes. Now the elephant is
very fond of lolobes, but the fruit grows so
high up as to be quite out of the animal’s
reach. Of course that does not deter the
elephant from trying to get it. True, he
cannot climb a tree, but he has a big bump
of ingenuity and we may rest assured that
he gets the fruit by some means or other.
Sir Samuel Baker, the great African trav-
eler, was fortunate enough one day to see
an elephant in the very act of getting the
fruit. The elephant would retire a short
distance from the tree and then rush at the
trunk at full speed, striking his head
against it with such force as to make the
tree tremble in every limb and so shake
down the fruit, repeating the charge again
and again until enough lolobes had fallen
to satisfy his appetite. —Our Animal

Painted Desert and its Mirage.
Wonderful Visions of Desolate Plains of Northern
Arizona—Only Reptiles Live There—Legends and
Natural Dangers Make the Place One tc be Shun-
ned—Of Interest to Geologists.
North of the junction of the Little Colo-
rado with the great river of the same name
is that wonderful region of northern Ari-
zona called the Painted Desert. From the
land of prodigious canons, where in abyss-
mal depths the mighty rivers roll on for-
ever, and the surrounding landscape looks
like the wreck of some blasted world, the
traveler emerges on a vast elevated plateau
stretching away to the north and northeast
far beyond the range of ordinary vision
even in the rare atmosphere of that ele-
vated clime. The blue sky of Arizona—
famous over all the world for its dazzling
depths of liquid clearness—overarches all
that wide expanse of dreary, desolate plain.
Over the parched rocks and burning
sands, between scattered clumps of cactus,
the traveler whose euriosity is proof against
oppressive heat, discouraging loneliness
and eternal silence must wearily plod his
way. At every step his path reveals some
strange looking fossil relic of the hoary
ages of geological antiquity. Great silici-
fied trunks of mammoth trees with daz-
zling scintillating crystallized cores are
scattered here and there like the dismem-
bered parts of the body of some mighty
python cut clean hy the sword of some
fabulous Titian of old. .
The shells of paleozoic crustaceans and
mollusks, with the long, tapering cham-
bered ortoceras, and huge convoluted re-
mains of marine creatures of the past, that
resemble great coiled serpants, are thickly
embedded in the hed rock, but easily ob-
servable rising above the level of the softer
sandy matrix in which they were covered
up uncounted ages ago hy the action of the
restless waves of the now extinct carbonif-
€rous sea.
Rattlesnakes, fierce, venomous and leth-
argic, hiss and rattle ominously as they
glide away from the adventurous intruder,
and apparently wonder what kind of a new
and rash being it is that has come to invade
their hot, dessicated domain. The hideous
Heloderma Horridus, better known as the
Gila monster, basks in the glaring, blind-
ing sun, or blinks torpidly beneath the
scanty, cactus shade. All around, beneath,
above there is silence—silence deep, last-
ing, oppressive and seemingly eternal.
But what is it that the startled traveler
observes in the distance? What great
walled city is that, with its arched gates
and equestrian statues above the portals,
and giant sentries guarding the approaches ?
Far away sweep the buttressed, hattle-
mented walls, and above them rise towers,
turrets, cupolas and massive pyramids in
amphitheatric perspective, all mingled in
indescribable chaotic vastness of extent and
half concealed by a misty, hazy shroud
that seems to be in constant motion, rising;
falling and swaying with an irregular mo-
tion. Like a great panoramic scene the
figures are ever changing. Armies with
banners raised appear drawn up in battle
array. Histrionic statues, rising aboye the
ghostly warriors of the mists, stand as
silent as the Sphinx. Other fierce-looking
statuesque figures in oratorical attitude
admonish the heterogeneous assemblage in
silent eloquence, and with fixed and terri-
ble expressions of hatred and ineffable
scorn. Guant maidens, with loose robes
flowing with the wind, and petrified with
some Delsartian, rigid form of expression,
defy the distant enemies or urge the spirit
hosts of defenders to hasten to the fight.
Wonderful mirage ! Strange desert hallu-
cination this, which puzzles the mind of
the beholder and makes him entertain the
gravest doubts of his own sanity. No one
who has not seen the place can begin to
conceive the bewildering power of decep-
tion on the human eye. Even dogs are
affected, showing signs of unrest and dread,
and sometimes, after gazing ahead at the
astonishing collection of unrealities, will
turn tail and flee.
The sudden changes that come over the
mirage-producing region are really start-
ling. At times the whole cavalcade of
prodigious deceptions seem to be suddenly
possessed of motion, and sweep away to
oblivion in a mad, precipitate charge.
With a rush like that Ney’s troopers at
Waterloo the figures of the mist disappear
and are gone forever. Following them,
cyclopean centeaurs, with sunlit and flash-
Ing scimetars, charge to the imaginary
battle. 2
The mirages and the motions are sup-
posed to be the result of the flashing of the
sun’s rays over the variegated rocks, which
are of all shapes and forms, standing in
profusion over all the wide extent of plain,
and the effect on the eyes is to create hallu.
cinations which affect human beings, dogs
and horses apparently alike, as the latter
become bewildered in the presence of the
strange, unreal visions, and show a ten-
dency to rush headlong from the scene.
Approaching closer to the remarkable
desert plateau one beholds a most mar-
velous collection of natural forms. The
great soft friable carboniferous sandstone
stratum has been carved into the most
grotesque shapes by the action of wind and
storm and the chemical: attributes of the
atmosphere reacting on the peculiar chem-
ical properties of the rock. There are red,
white and green layers of stone all firmly
cemented together, and standing in the
form of statues, buildings, walls aid tow-
ers as far as the eye can see. The strong
rays of the sun and the peculiar kind of
misty Indian summer haze that hangs over
the elevated tableland have the effect of
giving the scene a fantastic, chaotic and
indescribably startling weirdness of as-
pect. The enchantment lent by distance
heightens the effect orm the eye and imag-
ination of the beholder.
The Indians call the place the Land of
Departed Spirits, or the Spirit Land, and
refuse to enter or approach it. They tell
of a party of warriors that once ventured
within the walls and were never more
heard of. This tradition may be founded on
some actual occurrence as related, because

rinthine es and perishing from

Death of ex-Senator Payne.
The Millionaire Who Represented Ohio for One
Term.
Hon. Henry B. Payne, ex-United States
senator, died at Cleveland, Ohio, last
Thursday at his home, No. 595 Euclid ave-
nue. His death was directly due to a
stroke of paralysis, with which he was at-
tacked last Saturday morning.
Hon. Henry B. Payne was father-in-law
of William C. Whitney, ex-secretary of the
navy, and was born in Madison county, N.
Y., Nov. 30, 1810. Mr. Payne was gradua-
ted at Hamilton college in 1832; then read
for the bar in Canandaigua, N. Y., and in
1834 moved to Cleveland, O., where he
practiced law for the ensuing twelve years.
In 1848 he was a presidential elector, and
serving until 1850. He was nominated f
United States senator in 1851, but was de-
feated. In 1856 he was one of the staunch-
est supporters of Stephen A. Douglas, and
a year later was defeated for governor of
Ohio. Mr. Payne retired from his profes-
sion and became largely interested in
manufactures, railroads and various other
enterprises, and amassed a large foftune.
In 1884 he was elected to the United States
senate, succeeding George H. Pendleton
and served one term.
