There was little news from the Rus

It Is .Uncertain wliether Grand Duke

intends to make his tinal stand on his

this doubtless depends on his supplies

All of the mtven dm'tors wlio were
Interviewed alxujt the Ixmelits of woter
?#lrinklng agreed that the coploux drink
ing of water was a preventive of di
sease and they had known many cases
In wltich health was restored by the
drinkltiK of water in large quant it lex.
One doctor advocated the driuking of
us much ax three gallons of water a
.day in very warm weather, reducing
the amount when the weather lx cool
er, hut never drinking lesx than a gal
lon a day,
"Why," xahl the phyxldan, "two
thirds of the weight of the body is
water. In a very warpi day In Au
gust an average man who lx at work
will pergjrire from two to six quarts
of water a day. Where is it all coin
ing from If you don't drink it? Many
|x>isohx generated hy the body- are ex
uded through the ix>re? of the skin in
pertfpiratioii,. Many iieraoiip think they
at4? not perspiring unlesx they can see
heads of water on the skin. But we
perspire at all times, walking and
sleeping, and we do not see it becauxi
It evaporatex Immediately. It is al
most impossible to drink too much
water."
, Another doctor said : "I ?aw a short
article In the- Star the other evening
quoting an eminent medical authority
as saying that all girls and women
who wished to have good complexions
should drink two quarts of water a
day. I would double that and advise
them to drink four quarts a day. (Jive
thy body plenty of pure water, inside
and . outside, a gallon a day iushlc. a
thorough bathing of the whole body
at least once a day, fresh air at all
times, night and day, and- plenty of
exercise, preferably by outdoor walk
ing, and y??u can't \verv Well l>5~slck.
If every one would ji? that oHedialf
the doctors would have to seek -other'
business. If every woman would do
that 1 1 ??? roUge and complexion powder
factories would shut down. There Is
nothing xo good as plenty of water
drunk every/day for the complexion."
A physician said : "I am not claim2*]
lug that the drinking of plenty of
.water is a preventive of all diseases;
that would lie misleading and silly,
Vnit I will say this: I have cured sev
eral bad cases ojf rheumatism and many
cases of stomach trouble w^th water
alone. In those cases the patients were
in the habit of drinking very llltle
water. I prescribed a quart of water
before breakfast in the morning and a
gallon drunk throughout the day, and
a quart on going to bed at night. It
worked a cure in each case.
"I say this, most emphatically, that
a half-gallon or a gallon of water a
day will help wash out the toxic pois
< lis that are found in the body,; and
will tend to keep a person In good
health and help him resist disease;
"There is constantly being accumu
lated in the laxly not only waste mut
ter, resulting from chemical chiiiiges
taking place In the upkeep of the vital
energy, but also the blood takes up
toxic poisons from the Intestines. Un
less those things are thrown off by
the lungs, skin, kidneys, etc., wo be
como-la/.y. dlspe'ptic and' uric acid will
accumulate and cause rheumatism, kid
ney disorder and other organic dis
tdrbances. Now such conditions would'
be much less likely to ensue were the
simple precaution be taken of drinking
11 pint of water often throughout the
day.
Especially Is this true of persons
who take little exercise and who live
indoors, where they breathe impure
air.
"I oftett prescribe the slow sipping
of at least a pint of hot water in the
morning while dressing. This washes
out the -stomach, stimulates ' the cir
culation in the lungs and skin and pro
motes the action of the liter: If a
person has tendency to gout or rheu
matism ?the water drinking habit is)
especially recommended."
One physician was found who re
commended the drinking of a (ptarll of
water witli~oaoh meal, but the ma- j
jorlty were opposed to drinking water
while eating.

A WAR OF WAITING.
H bile ,Tlie Index ia not ready to
withdraw lta prediction, based on in
tuition rather than solid facts and con
ditions, that the great war will end
before the year ta out, it realize* that
the present outlook is \ far from en
couraging for an early end.
The opinion of the venerable scient
ist, Sir Willlan Crookes, that it will
be tt long war, but that the Allies will
grow In power as the war Is prolonged
la a good statement 'of one of the keen
est and sanest minds in the world
Sir William admits that the Allies
started badly, they were not as well
.prepared ns the (iermans but says that
he does not know anybody who can be
blamed for that state; of things. The
Allien have done very well considering
and will soon be on equality with their
foes so far as fighting efficiency is
?concerned. Though the war may be
long, the longer it lasts, the stronger
will be the Allies. They must set
themselves to wear out the (iermans.
To < do thla they must press steadily
and quietly- forward on. the road. It
is not necessary to take cities and exe
cute wonderful marches. All they
have got to do Is tq go on with their
absolute and unquestionable duty of
thinning the enemy. It must be a fight
of endurance, of sapping, weakening
?and destroying by that process. Tlie
war will be won, lie thinks, not by
fury of attack and .gallantry but by
hanging on. He who hangs On longest
will win and a man who thinks at all
must admit that the Allies can hang
on almost indefinitely whereas the oth
ers cannot. Time fights for the Allies.
As a parallel, though liot a complete
one, it may be recalled that the Con
federates bad success for almost three
years. Numbers, money and endurance
will tell. (Jennauy has lasted this long
and will last longer because she lias
been preparing for it for years while
, the South was unprepared and made
uup for this In fury of attack and gal
lantry. but the doggedncss of the oth
er side told and will tell again.? Oreen- 1
