DON'T FORGET TO WATER YOUR CELLS OUR BODIES cannot operate without a generous supply of water. Among the tortures of shipwrecked mariners none is more distressing than thirst. Delirium will come on rather quickly when the circulation becomes so thick that it cannot flow freely. Few of us have a clear conception of our daily requirements. Our internal machinery is bathed continuously and most of this liquid comes from the blood.

In each 24 hours, every adult utilizes three pints for the manufacture of saliva, five for the stomach secretions, one for bile, for the output of the pancreas, while fully three quarts lie within the intestinal canal. In other words, we employ in these areas more than twice as much fluid as the entire volume of blood. As we can see, our capillaries are extremely busy, collecting liquid from a million different sites. In addition, nearly gallons must be retained within the cells. The chemicals inside the billions of compartments which make up every muscle, fiber, organ and tissue must be in solution.

Each tiny room constitutes a laboratory wherein countless operations are conducted. Oxygen is absorbed and transformed into carbon dioxide. Nutriment is received c'ncl used. These are the processes which we call "life." If we allow many of these spaces to dry, death will ensue. All of this emphasizes the value of possessing a reserve which may be called upon when necessary.

Let us suppose that one loses four or five quarts within a few hours, the result of profuse diarrhea. The blood channels will attempt to secure whatever they need and this means that the reservoirs must be filled promptly. Sometimes the circulation cannot take what it demands. In consequence, it will become more glue-like. Thus the nutrition of vital organs will suffer.

In such a dilemma we have learned that water alone will not do. It must be mineralized. This explains why we advise salt tablets or glucose for all those who perspire profusely and hence are excreting large portions via the skin. In fact, one whose cells are badly parched to the verge of severe illness will require some salty material, otherwise the ingested liquids may not be picked up. Probably the most important structures in all this interchange are the kidneys.

Although we excrete via the unne only three to four quaits pel- day, 100 times this much passes thru the renal apparatus. But the miles and miles of tubules within these organs re-absorb it. Thus the cleansing process of the circulation goes on scores of times each day. Is there any danger of flooding the tissues Yes, and we can also imbibe too much salt, which will retain fluid within the cells. There appears to be a natural balance of both minerals and water for which governors are and appetite.

If we will obey these two instincts few of us will go wrong. We must replace with new'liquids all that has been thrown off from the lungs, the skin, the urinary tract, and the bowel. The amount will vary from quarts tc nearly double that quantity, depending upon activity The lesson -for each of us is to watch for any unusual depletion and to restore the defioit as quickly as Tlls Popularly true with children who, a few hours, may be deprived of a quarter of their body Irving R. rr wo per cent ot the people the United States are morons," says a sociologist.
