WHAT TO DRINK IN HOT
WEATHER.
A Physician writes to the Chronicle: Owing to the greatly increased activity of the skin in hot-weather, and the resulting excessive perspiration, the system is con- stantly being deprived of its due meed of water, with the natural result that a condi.
tion of thirst is generally produced. It is by the constant evaporation of fluld from the skin surface the heat-rogulation mo chanism of the body is enabled to keep the human temperature at the normal 98.6dog. when the thermometer reigistérs un atmos- phere of 70deg, in the shado. Persons who porapiro copiously suffer more from thirst and the general discomforts of subtropical temperatures than those whose skins are not stimulated into over-activity by the heat.
Granted, then, that people must and do, drink more frooly in hot weather than in cold, the question is, What is the best beverage with which to quench thirst in such circumstances? This question is one by no means go easy to answer as might appear at first sight. When one in thirsty
and hot something cooling is desired, and

fallacious process of reasoning one

These long drinks would be much more wholesome without the ice, and beat of of them is undoubtedly a home made lemonade, without that excess of sugar which is always no instrumental in aggravating one's thirst. Next to lemon ade us a grateful and comforting drink in the dog days, one may place the oldfashion- el ginger-beer in stone bottles. The sickly, syrupy concoctions, with strange new names, and of uncertain composition had' better be avoided by the prudent.

Ordinary beers, and spirits are most un- satisfactory as hot weather beverages.

Mr Ferrers appeared in support of an application for the debtor's rolessu from prison, and said that a great deal depended on what was going in Sinapore in connec tion with this bankruptcy. Telegraphic nowa has been received from Singapore in view of which Mr Forrers asked that the matter be allowed to "stand over for one wook,
Mr Gedge suggested that a fortnight's adjournment would be better, as the matter would probably be settled then.
Mr Forrers thought that Mr Gedge did not attach the same weight as he did to the fact that the debtor had been in prison for some considerable time.
The Chief Justice--I do not consider
that.
Mr Gedge intimated that the debtor thought he would get out of gaol by going before the Bankruptcy Court. Mr Gedge had a telegram from the debtor's brother in Singapore who offered to settle for 265,000. The debtor tolegraphed to his brother 'Don't settle, and the brother re- plied 'Don't release debtor until he settles." Mr Ferrers pointed out that he under- stood the creditors refused to accept $65,000 in full settlement.
The Chief Justice-I think the matter week. By might be mentioned next reason of what I onid the other day I want to draw attention to article 45 of the Bankruptcy Ordinanco and to the Privy Council case Calendars, Sykes and Co.

It is folly to expect that this country can achieve results from the operation of the open door 'policy in China, if we close our doors against Chineso labourers and in addition make it so un- pleasant forth so Chinumen who are privi- fogod to enter under the law, that they acquire a strong dislikefor the United States. Nowhere on the Pacific Coast has the foo ling against Chinese labour gone so far as in Tacoma. There are a great many poople in this city who now recognise the fact that mistake was made in driving the Chinese out of this city a number of years ago. A Cosmopolitan city, particularly a seaport with direct steamship communication with Chinese ports, cannot afford to adhere to such an illiberal policy as has beon maintained in this city.
Tacoma must court the closest possible.
