Within seven : weeks what at first bade fair to prove an insoluble mur- der mystery, hasbeen cleared up, the culprit caught ama found guilty and preparations begun for his execu- tion. It is an admirable instance of the expedition of which the law is\capable. ‘It’ was on July 11 that Roxbury staggered home with his clothing torn, bis watch gone and his skull frac- tured. Witiin less than a week ‘the detectives had f found the pawnshop in which the watch had been i pledged, arrested Jackson and secured his positive iden- fication by Miss Thomasch, Roxbury’s companion on the fatal night, The prisoner was indicted July 24, placed on trial Aug. 24 and on Sept. 4 he will be in the ¥ death chamber. In this close sequence of events from the discovery of the crime to the conviction of its per- petrator the machinery of the law was shown in perfect operation. ‘ And in this there was no suggestion of railroading mirthods. The full protection of the court was given the prisoner at all times. ' HOTELS AND CHILDREN. As if for new proof of the drift of family life from the old home moorings to the apartment hotel we have within a week the filing of plans for two palatial hotels ef the new order on Columbus avenue, one to be erected at Seventieth street and the other at Elghty-first. Such houses spring up mushroom-like; a memory only, two years long will recall at least twenty of them. Mrs, Russell Sage says in the current number of the Clubwoman that one evil of apartment and hotel life is that it {s bad for the child. There is not enough room, there is no proper playground, there is too much rele- gation of the child to the solo care of the nurse. All this, Mrs. Sage thinks, is bad for the moral growth of the children and especially harmful in its effects on their manners, “I doubt,” she says, “If we shall see ‘the pretty courtesies of the young to the old again.” Certainly little Lord Fauntleroys are pretty scarce. s Is it better so or- worse?

Of THAT 21as7. wace! ~The yachting crowds’ devotion and the waters of old Ocean THE USE OF SALT AND ITS ABUSE. the human body in the performance of thelr several functions, and that it 1s indispensable to the development and free play of the Intellectual faculties, This belief is strengthened by the fact that in those regions of the earth where salt is not to be found it is imported from other _ Places at great expense, Its use Is universal, In one of his recent works Albert Robin demonstrates that many of the states of fatigue and depression to which We are subject are accompanied Uy a marked loss of tne mineral elements of our organism, and particularly of salt In most perrons suffering from neurasthenla this tons Is éx+ trame. The success of the method now in vogue in treating nervous diseases with glycerin-phosphate preparations and saline injections {s probably due to this fact. In this cone nection I recall a thesis by Dr. Meyer on the subject of thirst, in which he tells of several interesting experiments demonstrating that prostrations or any stite. of great nery= ous excitation depend to a great extent on the amount of salt carried by the blood. While in certain diseases there is an excessive secretion of salt, in others the same element {s retained by the tissueg in an abnormal degree. If persons so affected are given salt in excess it will be found that the cells, instead of throwing the salt off again as waste matter, retain it and it accymu- lates in the tissues, Such 1s the case with those whose kid- neys do not perform their functions properly. This 1s what happens under these conditions: ‘The tissues, becoming saturated with salt, absorb water from the. blood, and this infiltration causes what doctors terms “oedema” oF “anasarca.” Formerly doctors prescribe milk as a remedy for oedamay Meats of all xinds have always been considered harmful to sick persons, and for that reason doators would put their patients on an exclusive mick diet. While milk fs no doubt good for the sick, the uniformity of a milk diet, in ™many instances at least, !s a cruel punishment. At this juncture Dr. FernanJ Widal comes before-the medical world and shows by n series of experiments as pre+ cise as they are Ingenious that milk is beneficial to the heart 4nd kidneys subject to oedema, for the reason that ft is @ food defictent in salt. For instance, if a person suffering from Bright's disease 1s given milk to which a quantity of salt has been added it will be found that the inflammation and swelling Increares and the patient shows all the symp- toms of auto-intoxication. Now give him bread and meat Prepared so as to be most easily digested, but without salt, and the swelling and Inflammation will disappear, the kidneys will perform their functions and the general condition of the Patlent will improve in a short while. in the future the great problem in therapeut: : hygiene will be, as it already 1s, just how’ arto: veattit| the use of salt in the case of sufferers from rheumatiam, | gout, heart disease and kidney trou- The abuse of the use of salt has as much to do with | ing arteriosclerosis and the aging of our tissue: oan the abusive use of alcoholic stimulants, tas zd KINGBIRD AND ORIOLE, The difference in the nature of t! oirde otrth- ingly exhibited in the style of eit The bind hasn't a particle of tmegination, Magazine, not an etom of the artistic in his eoul.
