MINERAL WATERS.
Why and Hnw Thry Hcnrflt Those That
Drink Them.
When patient reaches a mineral
water health resort, lie in examined by
the resident physician ami ordered to
drink certain quantities of the water at
certain times dnrlng the day. Them are
increased frnm day to day until the
maximum quantity needed is reached.
He In ordered to drink one or two s I aw
ful upon riHiiix, two or three glasses
between breakfast and dinner, the sanie
quantity in the afternoon and a couple
of glasses tiefore going to bed. The pa
tient is nrged to take it whether he
wants it or not. tie may any that he in
not thirsty, but that malieo no differ
ence; he must take it an a medicine.
The quantity in increased until we have
known 80 glume per day to be takeu.
A part of the benefit derived ii be
cause of the rest and change of scene.
A part, perhaps, in from the small
quantity of the Halts and other bane
contained in thru) water (we are uot
speaking of eiitliintio or chalybeate wa
ter), but the benefit from this lource la
very slight. The secret of the cure i in
the quantity of water taken. If the wa
ter be pore, free from organic- matter,
and taken in sufficient qunutity, the re
mit will be substantially the name, re
gardless of the "traces" of lithia and
small quautitie of sodium chloride and
other xalt. Yon ran perform these
cures nt home with the ordinary drink
inn water, if of good quality, if you
will require the patient to take it in
the same quantity as at the spring. It
is very easy to add lithia if desired, hut
you muNt not lose sight of the fact that
the quantity of water (not lithia) taken
is the importuut thing. It acts by flood
ing the kidneys, by washing out the
bladder with a copious, bland and dilute
urine, by nncloggiug tho liver uud
clearing tho brain. The patient feels
better from day to day; he is better.
Irritable bladder is relieved, tho kid
neys net freely are "washed out"
and many effete substances are carried
out with the flood, this clears the way
for the liver to act freely and normally,
for there, is au intimate relatiou be
tween the liver and kidneys. New

Klephant Flesh u African Delleaey.
The floNh of the elephant is euteu in
its entirety by several of the Africun
tribe. A detail of the process of butch
ering the animals is not pleasant read
ing. The tool used are the assagai and
hatchet. The rough outer skiu is first
removed in large sheets. Beneath this
is a subcuticle, a pliable membrane,
from which the -natives make water
skins. The elephaut yields large quan
tities of fat, used iu cooking the na
tives' sun dried biltong, or dried strip
of the elephant's flesh, and also iu the
preparation of vegetables. African ex
plorers of the Caucasian race agree-that
one part of the elephant's carcass, when
properly cooked, is a succulent dish
that will regale the most delicate taste.
This part, very strangely, is the first
Joint of the leg below the knee, which
one would suppose to be the toughest
portion of the animal. To prepare the
joint a hole throe feet deep is dug in
the earth, and the sides of it are baked
bard by means of largo live ooals. Most
of the ooals are then taken out, and the
elephant's foot is placed in the rude
oven. The bole is then filled with dirt,
tightly packed, and a blazing Are is
built on top, which is kept replenished
for three hours. The foot is thus evenly
baked, and when done, instead of
strong, tough meat fiber, it is of ge
latinous consistency that may be eaten
with a spoon. Philadelphia Lanoet,
