' The following paper on “Health” was read at a recent meeting of the W, 0 , T. XJ, by Hr, J. O, Stewart: , ^ ‘ ' HEALTH. ’■>The' individual health’ of the av- ’ crag# person:—-Many ,of us are born .with more ’vitality than some, and .others with inherited taints ofdisease/ ' The*newborn, child may inherit from ,,bis ,parents and ancestor# weakness ‘to resist, or strength, bodily vigor, to throw,of?’disease, .The one .or the other predominates hut is influenced by- surrounding cirentuafances.

The care of 'the individual, ■then# birth coflnte itmh great >deaKl. Then how shall he be cared for, is' tile question for the parent, the phurdli and the State. The ;pa? .rental care—and alas? thefe are many who get little or none—comes first. Provision has wisely been iriade by the Creator for the nourishment Of the new. horn In -man and beast no one Ims'ever discovered, or invented a better food' than kind Nature has given for the support,of early life: -Another .wise prevision 6f‘ the all* Wise Creator aud parent of all. ill the ■abdudance *of pure air—allhlite are free to draw on .this supply without money, without price.' “Free as the air we breathe" is .a trite but true Baying; No one need he deprived,' hut many do' deprive themselves of this life and health supply. Unthoughtedly we get Ju the Way of not using all the air we need. We cut off by making our houses too air* tight and by living too niucli indoors. We are learning that all disease#, and especially those of the respiratory or­ gans are benefited and even cured by supplying generously the body with fresh, cure air: Let’us All our Jung# full of7this lifegiving principal, oxy­ gen. If is oxygen that is taken up by the red blood corpuscles, as they meet in the lungs and carried by them to supply the tissue# iu the living body, ‘ For drink, we have water. There a no substitute. Man ha# devised many beverages, but the call for water is greater now than ever, A# we rise in Intelligence, by observation and experience we are shown that this combination of oxygen with hy­ drogen supplies' better the needs of- our economy than any other bever- sgo. Even coffee and tea do not look sodnnocenf as they once did in the clear, pure light of reason. The day i#coming when these two will be ban/ «hed from our dietary, even as spit/ Kous liquors are now tabooed from this list. Foods, both liquid and solid, pro­ mote health if taken In moderation or taken wuen ’needed to supply body waste. Too much food and too little water is taken by the average person. Ovfreating is mm, of the most fr«- <j«ent causes of ill health, The nitrog­ enous foods, such as meats, hgg sic., are the ones that are eaten too freely and are the foods that cause many ailments that man fs subject to* The waste products,.When not gotten rid of, accumulate in the tissue# of our system, and produce the fueling of torpor and other symptoms* Out­ door exercise with pure air with jjkatyol water both In wad miMfa are panaceas fog, many ills, and gives to ell a feeling,of well being. In the free usebf water, both exter­ nally and internally we have a liquid that exerts a powerful force towards promoting hcaltlMsjj^ririic bath houses aa well ua privadppfflr be found far more numerouflfl the years to cOme than a t presenter • Our bodies are what we make them even as our lives may be good or bad. They are habitations in which we love to dwell or, places In which we' may suffer" untold agonies. The nervous system gives us .warning of impending danger#, of tb; eatened dieeares, if one knows- how to Interpret - their- lan­ guages. The proper" study of man kind is man. .■We should study our individual need#, for who can tell 'the story of our vyauts so well?' So many interpret wrongly the language of pur' bodies; our tissues call and we know not what they call for, or we find out too late, to respond to their calls, ton late to give relief. “Of all sad words ot tongue or pen the- sad­ dest.are these; I t might have been,” when we find out, too late, our habitation is diseased, the. bodies in which we dwell,- that these diseases are the results of omissions and com­ missions on our own part,.that- we have opened the door for their en trance, that disease has crept in like a thief in the night, and before we are aware it has. tight .hold on our. mortal bodies. Too long we have been negligent pf the laws ot healthy and these laws are rigid—if broken the penalty is to pay. Then let us be observant, "studious, abstemious; let us tench to Others the things we have found out; If, us'lenrnof others, truths, they have discovered. -Good health and poor health are relative terms. They may mean more to some than to ourselves, hut all alike seek and desire health. We desire to live and to let others, live in health and true enjoyment. The forces, are continually in ac­ tion (iq our bodies—a building up anrfa pulliug down. They go hand in hand. Growth and decay are every moment of our Jives taking place. The blood carries food to the tissues and cells-and at the Bame time returns iadened with waste products to be eliminated, These are gotten rid of by the skin, the lungs, the kid­ neys and the bowels. I f for any rea­ son these avenues are blockaded and elimination iB checked or ceases, we have a condition favoring diseases, So to enjoy good health we find that many things—many little and apparently trivial Lhings—enter in and compare it, if rightly put together and wisely, rcsulring.in health.

TWO GREAT STOCK SALES. The first annual sale of Scotch-bred short horns from the herd of E, S, Kelly at White Hall, near Yellow Spring, took place Tuesday aud was attended by a crowd estimated at 1500 people. Cattlemen from many of the western states were present, as were large number# from this section, many farmers taking their wiyes and family along and spending the day on the millionaire's farm. Colonel F. M, Woods the most noted cattle auction* eer the world know# was the chief auctioneer; There were thirty-six animals placed on sale which brought a total of $21*255. The twenty-eight female#brought an average of $685,18 each and eight bulls averaged $288,75. The highest priced animal went to W- I. Wood, Wiliiaiflsport for $1625* J .■ iL Hawkins, this county, purchased two for 4400 and $525 respectively. This #ale wa# probably the greatest ever held in Greene county. Dinner was served in the barn by a Spring- field caterer. The sale of Short Horn cattle a t Woodbury farm near Osborn, owned by 0. L. Goriaugh, wa# attended by a crowd of 1,000 people. In three hours thirty *three head of cattle «oid for the #um of $20,180, a. general average of $610. Twenty-five cows and 'heifers brought an average of $616 each While light hull# averaged 684.37. The highest animal w t ' ‘Missis 162/ bought by L* S. Kelly, owner of Whitehall form Spring#. The p r i c e was $I,62o^ A large part of the sale# was to Western Be meft* O f U. P , Church Contin­ ued by Rev* Ross. A DISPUTE SETTLED The, Candidacy of Vailandingtiam For Governor of OhioCausedAn"Erup­ tion. — Pastors’ Salaries Very ' MuchIncreased. ' After the death of Rev. J . A. Mc-J Call various suppliesministered to the congregation, among whom were Drp. Beveridge and Wilson .of the Theolbg- ical.Seminary, Dr. A*,Heron, Revs. S.Jkl. Coon, David Dpnnan and the students of the Setnitfary, until the next meetingof theGeneral,Assembly in May,. 1864. I t is not to lie under­ stood that each of these, supplies was' candidate for the pastorate. The presbytery often sent ;one of its own members, frequently oho of the Sern- nary professors, to conduct commun­ ion, to adjust difference's and, attend to such matters as did not properly belong to regular supplies* - - Qne of the disputes th#t called for set­ tlement after the death of Mr. McCall, was -a political question anent the pro­ priety of voting for •whui J«was termed “a disloyal candidate for Governor/’ (The, candidate was Clement L. Val- latidingbam; whose candidacy and ut­ terances embittered those who were Etfong Unionists during the war). To.Dr, Beveridge was assigned, on.this occasion, the delicate'task Of restoring amicability, and la this day ho: one was bettor qualified. His mild and jentle manner, his calm demeanor and seace loving disposition enabled him; in this emergency to restore peace and quiet the agitation, and the question was never again broached in the ses* sion. At the General Assembly meet- Ing mentioned nbove, the Board of Home Missions nssigned Rey.„W. H. Haney to labor in the bounds of Xenix Presbytery during four months of the summer beginning with July. At that time ministers without charges and”licentiates ready for settlement were assigned to certain presbyteries laving vacancies, for specified por­ tions of tbe year, and this assign­ ment was considered binding. Mr. Haney in obedience to tbe direction preached at Cedarville during the summer, and his ministry was so ac­ ceptable to tbe people that a vote was taken and a call moderated for him in the early autumn of 1864, This call was presented to Presbytery ‘on Oct* 18, 1864.and was sustained and, for­ warded to Muskingum Presbytery, where Mr. Haney belonged.. That Presbytery presented the call to him and he accepted it on April 18,1865. He was then given a certificate to con-, nect with Xenia Presbytery, which he presented on May 18,1865. He wasrec ived and arrangements were made for his ordination and installa­ tion which took place on June 8,1865. The call was accompanied by a pledge on the part of the congregation to pay him an annual salary of $700. this was at least $100 more than had ever been pledged before. This wa# paid for three years when the congre­ gation increased tbe salary to $900. This was in 1868 and from that time until*his last year he received this amounf. During the last year of his pastorate his promised Salary Was still further increased to $1,200. He how­ ever resigned before the year was com­ pleted. On August 1.4, 1865, just ft short time after his installation, the'congre­ gation was divided into districts for the purpose of holding prayenneeting# in tlm different, section#. Arrangement# were made to have Ihefo prayermeot- ings in the afternoon of Wednesday of each week, meeting in one district on the first Wednesday of the month, and in the next district on the second Wed* noiday and to pn tmttt MJ th$ dforjot# had been. favored with a meeting in its bounds. This doubtless is the ori­ gin of the present custom of holding- the congregational prayer meeting on the second Wednesday afternoon of the month, this being the survival of the prayermeeting of the second dis­ trict.
