28, 1906, after great suffering, during his
last illness, of about seven weeks.
Comrade Osborne was a member of Co.
"I," 16th N. C Regt., and was faithful to
the cause he had espoused, a cause he then
believed, and all dow KNOW, was just,
and of which record he was never ashamed,
but was ready to vindicate and commemo
rate si all limes aud places: too brave to
eo back on his record in the sixties, yet too
houest with self, to rely, solely upon thai
record as a passport to Eternity.
Comrade Osborne, about 18 year ago,
took an active part in the organization of
our County Confederate Veterans Assoc ia
tionj the annual meetings of which haye
given to all our people so much pleasure,
and in those meetings none were more in
terested than Jas. J. Osborne.
He lived all bis life of about 66 years
among the people of Henderson county,
and died near the place of his birth, much
loved and respected by his neighbors.
By his death we are again reminded that
a few days hence and the places that now
know us will know us no more, and the
Confederate Veteran ranks, now being so
rapidly thinned, will never again be filled
Your committee recommend that this
report be spread upon the minutes, a copy
sent to Mrs. Osborne and published in the
Hendersonville papers. S. V. Pickens,-

DiiINK WEEN YOUTEAT
TAKE AS MUCH WATER AS YOU
WANTy WITH YOUR MEALS. ;
It Is Excellent For the Digestion,-It
Is Claimed, as Neither Gastrie Juice
Nor Pepsin Work Properly Unless
Largely Diluted With -Skater.
How much water should -we drink
and when should we drink it are ques
tions, so simple that at first' sight their
discussion seems superfluous. One
would naturally answer, "Drink all the
Water you wish when, you are thirsty
but authorities say, "Drink more than
you wish when you are not thirsty,"
for they recommend that a gallon or so
be. drunk' between meals, which is
more water than we need and the very
time the system least demands it. Us
ually we experience thirst during or
directly after eating. 1
Inasmuch as 87 per cent of the whole
body is water, which is, of course, be
ing used up every moment, there is no
question that we should drink of this
element "copiously, but it la a serious
question whether we should refrain
from water at meals the time we par
ticularly desire it
There is a class of persons, ever
growing more numerous, that believes
that whatever is is wrong. For the
natural and simple they would substfc
tute the artificial and complicated. Tq
drink water while or directly after eat
ing is a natural instinct Give a dog
his dinner, putting a Bowl of water
near it, and observe that he will first
eat all be can and then immediately
drink. Wild animals look for a stream
after feeding. Cage birds will stop
pecking at seed to peck at water. Chil
dren have a perpetual thirst, , and I
have seen babies that unlike young
Oliver, have refused to eat more when
denied water after every few mouth
fuls. It is especially important that babies
be given what water they wish and at
the time they wish it, which is usually
at table.
The thinner food Is the more easily
and thoroughly is it digested; in fact
it . cannot be digested until it has been,
made liquid by the gastric and intesitk
nal juices. Indigestion is caused often,
by food that has not been sufficiently
moistened by the digestive secretionst
There are sound physjQiagieai rea
sons for our craving water with meals.
Water is the, solvent that constitutes
93 per cent of the gastric Juice. Now,
when one eats a hearty meal and does
not drink, the amount of water in the
etoraach Is not sufficient thoroughly to
moisten the great quantity of food,
and this makes digestion difficult On,
the other hand, when enough water is,
ingested with the food- the latter
well moistened and broken up, the cH
gestible particles being then readily
acted on by the gastric Juice and after
ward absorbed. Again, when the par
tially digested food (chyme) passes Into
the intestines it is most important that
it be very moist, particularly as water
Is constantly, absorbed from the chyle
In the large Intestine. Bad cases of
constipation are caused by dry chyle
remaining in the intestines, where it
sets tip an inflammation that some
times proves fatal, dry faeces, of
course, resisting peristaltic action. The
excrement of persons suffering from
constipation is always dry andJ hard
and is a potent cause of appendicitis.
The idea that water drinking &
meals unduly dilutes the gastric Ju.ice
is nonsensical, water being not so pal
atable that one is apt to, drink more
than his digestive functions require.
As a matter of fact; water generally
facilitates the digestion of albuminous
substances. In this connection Dr. A.
f acobi in his work on "Infant Diet"
page G7, says;
"In experiments upon digestion of
albumen with gastric juice obtained,
from the stomach of animals it was no
ticed that after a certain time the proc
ess began to slacken, but was renewed
merely by the addition of water. The
gastric juice became saturated with
the . substance it had dissolved and
ceased to act upon what remained un
til it had. been diluted.. In the living
stomach this dilution is of even greater,
importance, for it permits of the im
mediate absorption of the substances
pol'able in water and which do not re
quire the specific action of the gastric
juice," Neither the gastric juice nor
pepsin has any true digestive action
unless they be largely diluted with wa
ter. It goes without saying that it Is not
tho food that Is Ingested, but that
which is digested, that does good, and
this principle (holds good with water,
which is practically a food. Now,
when one resists the perfectly natural
desire to drink" while eating he may be
not thirsty several hours afterward,
but he is advised nevertheless to force
himself to drink at that time.' But if
he drinks then, the water, having no
food to mix with It, will go through
him, as it were that is, it will do no
fcood.
The importance of water to the hu
man economy may be . inferred from
the various purposes s it subserves.
First it softens and dissolves 'solid
foods, thus facilitating their mastica
tion and digestion; second, It main
tains a due bulk of . blood and the
structures of the body; third, It keeps
substances in solution or suspension
while moving in the body; fourth, It
supplies elements in the body's chem
ical changes; fifth, It makes easy the
elimination of waste material; sixth, It
discharges superfluous heat by tran
spiration through the skin and by emis
sion through other outlets, and, sev
enth, it supplies 'In a convenient form,
heat to or abstracts heat from the
bodyj Some of these, functions are
performed by water in its liquid state
and others in a state of vapor.
Have, you indigestion? Try water
instead of drugs with your food. v.
