.. '. While undeniably a mixed diet is the
best for man, there is a mistaken notion'
" -which-prevails to a great extent, that
- meat" should largely enter into the 'same.
As a consequence, much more is eaten
.' than Is needed or can' properly" hedis-
posed of in.the system. Never eat "meat
oftener than once a dayand very spar
ingly in summer, -Men of sedentary
habits might with safety for several days
-at a time -during that season live on veg
etables, fruits, milk, breadstuffs -and
' foods of liko cearacter; which are easy of
:" . digestion. For those who have good
.reason to believo that their "kidneys are
' weak'.a diet largely made up of meat is
.ill advised. Those organs are' intimately

however, a class largely mado up of

ICn "WATHl IX MODERATION.
Much has been written for and against
ice water. It is not only agreeable and
refreshing, but harmless when used in
- moderation. In certain forms of dyspepsia-
characterized by flatulence bloating,
' as it is popularly called very cold water
' acts as an agreeable tonic, and quickens
. gastric and intestinal activity in many
cases if taken when the stomach is com
paratively empty. If taken on a full
; stomach it, as a rule, intensifies the
trouble. Over indulgence is always harm
" ful. and it is especially so at meal times.
For. a robust person in hot weather to
-.reduce one-half tho quantity of. food he
. .". is habituated to eating would bo a most
- salutary custom, for lie would then not
.only suffer infinitely less from tho heat,
.1- hut bo stronger and more active, both
- - mentally and physically. Those cspe-
' cially who are wedded to then "appe-
- tizers" would do -well to forego them at
""- least until cooler weather comes, and
.leave nature, uninfluenced by the seduct
ive cocktail, to direct tho quantity of food
-. necessary for tho body's support.
-That berries are healthy food can In
. -truth be said, and yet some kinds should
' ":bo denied people who have certain forms
---..'of digestive disturbance. Blackberries,
" . for instance, which contain small seeds,
. - -to somo extent irritate the. intestinal
.canal. It is in that way that they aro
' useful in constipation; they stimulate and
". -" quicken activity of the bowels But if
. the stomach and bowels aro what is gen-
' ' erally- termed weak, then in.such a case
theyaro likely to do harm. Very yonnj

is ail -right,, but that does not mean that
j man should make a meal essentially on
'.one courso, varied only by a piece of pie
or something of tho sort. Tho greater the

"election of tho food is made.
Soup is, by people generally, considered
-.- indispensable, at dinner. It 'stimulates
tho stomach and. makes that. organ ready
, ; - for tho work before it. For that purpose
"T-'dear, soup may properly'bo indulged in
. by-nearly- all; thero are, however, com-
: parativciy few who do not find soup

TBOUELE WITH FATTY FOODS.
The digestive organs find an admixture
.' rof several fatty foods difficult to dispose
" of. Tho man'who lias fried fish, bacon,
. . steakr eggs and dry toast for breakfast is
.- mado uncomfortable, and feels dull end
. - heavy for several hours afterward unless
.' ho eats very sparingly. With tho butter,
. ' which is", of course, an csscntial,.thero aro
in such a meal as generally prepared five
different kinds of. fat. And they aro still
moro indigestiblo when taken hot.
- In this country thero is.a most decided
prejudico against cold meals. Of corns
. somo foods should ba served warm, but
' none hot: Americans aro scarcely satisfied
-with tea or coffee unless it is near tho
boiling point; potatoes, also, must be
- steaming hot. Dyspepsia is tho natural
consequence. Tho English .in this respect
' -aro a delightful contrast. People who are
,': forced to bo early in tho morning at their'
- .labors would bo much better did they eat
' - cold meats for breakfast, and how much
.. such a. custom would lessen the burden of
r .." thebrpoor overworked wives.
- - - .The question what shall we eat may bo
- best answered by simply-quoting tho fact
' - ".that .man is an.omni verous animal. Why
.'and how much we shall cat can bo set
forth 'tolerably well by saying that it la
impossible for an engine to make steam
without coal or water .and that no com-
-petent engineer would mako Ms machine
.cany 100 pounds of steam when fifty
. "pounds would do. tho work in hand. An
Important duty of .those who work with
-engines is to see that tho fire is freed
from clinker and ash. So waste must be
regularly eliminated from tho human sys

act, the state of affairs in the body is very

'Ironworkers, glassworkers and others

Two Sides of the Qwstlea.
One thousand one hundred and eighty
one young women and girls attended the
free day and evening classes connected
with- the Young Women's Christian as
sociation last year. There aro free classes'
in stenography, type writing, bookkeep
ing, commercial arithmetic,- business
training, 'drawing, modeling and design
ing, retouching photo negatives,' physical
culture, choir .music and dressmaking.
Said' a lady interested in the association
to the writer: "Surely ..the women and
girls of New York ought to embrace these
advantages and -make th6 most, of them."
One bright looking young .woman,
though perhaps not patient and- persev
ering enough, looked rather dubiously at
the speaker as sho remarked: "'But tho
market seems overstocked now with
stenographers, typewriters, bookkeepers;
in fact " every department of woman's
work seems crowded 'to overflowing. At
the Cooper Union Free School of Tele
graphy they will not tako pupils, unless
some prominent man, or somo person with
u good standing in the community. come3 '
forward and guarantees thcin positions."
"Mark Twain," 'said tho lady, "with
his characteristic force, on the other
hand, expresses himself as follows: 'All
trades aud occupations aro cramped and
hindered for want of people to do the
work, not for want of work to do. When '
pcoplo tell you the reverse 'they speak
that which is not true. If you desire to
test this you need only .hunt up a first -class
editor, reporter, business manager,
foreman of a shop, mechanic or artist in

him. You will find that ho is already,

is with men. The best, the most skillful,

Beecber and His Word I'.ctiire.
If I were required to sum up Beechor,
as he seemed to me during tho first
twenty years of Ids experience in Brook
lyn, as I grew up beneath his eye
from little boyhood to man s estate, i
should hesitate not one second in answer
ing, heartiness. He was hearty in every
thing ho did; his aye meant aye, and his
nay meant nay. Ho was peculiarly tena
dous about his expressions, as, for in
stance, one time ho described a vision.
Standing, in apparent rapture, at the
very front of the platform," with his eyes
thrown far beyond the horizon, he spoke
of the goddess of Liberty with a diamond
scepter in her hand.
When he came home that night I said:
"I had to laugh when you spoke about
the goddess of Liberty with a diamond
scepter in her hand. Of courso you
meant a diamond pointed, scepter, there is
no such thing as a diamond scepter." He
was lying on a hair doch sofa in mother's
back parlor, but rising quickly, and rest
ing himself on one elbow, with tremen
dous emphasis, he replied:
"Nonsense! I guess I -know what I
saw."
That of course led up to an interesting
discussion as to tie illustrations, pic
torial, for which his public utterances
were noted. He lived in pictures, and
during the discussion be Bald:
'Why, certainly. I see them. Else how
could I describe them?" In other-words,
his imagination caught with nervous
hand upon the tail of fancy, and drawing
it to him, enabled him to describe, in
words, for the understanding of his hear
ers, that which to him was an apparent
reality. Joe Howard in Once a Week.
SoteriBg the Tipsy Ofieers.
A Russian officer gives the following
account of an incident which happened
during the Tekke campaign, while ho and
his soldiers lay encamped before the
enemy, who might at any moment attack
them. Somo of the officers had gone to
the tent of a comrade to drink tea, and
after tea they had a second course, con
sisting, of cognac and wine. Soon the
camp rang with songs.
I dispatched my orderly, with a request
that the officers cease singing; but ho
presently returned, saying that they
anxiously desired permission to continue.
What could be done? To remonstrate
further with them might, in their present
condition, result in unpleasantness. As
I meditated, the subaltern on duty came
up aud said to me, in a whisper:
"Your honor, let cne of the sentinels
ffrel"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean fire along the. line, as though
at tho enemy," ho explained, with a
smile.
I guessed at his meaning, and was
highly delighted with it; only an alarm
could sober the carousing officers.
"See to it," I said. "Bo prudent; don't
babble."
I went to my tent and lay down on my
bed, that I might not seem to be expect
ing anything. Five minutes later, from
somo place far away in the lino of sen
tinels, rang out a dull discharge. It was
echoed by another near by, followed by a
third and fourth. Shouts were heard,
"Ala-arml"
The drummer sprang .out of a neigh
boring tent, and beat tho alarm. The
songs ceased in an instant. Cries and ex
clamations rang out.
"Where's my cap?"
"Where's my sword?"
"Thero it is yonderl Give it hereJ"
"We must run down there as soon as
possiblel"
Tho shots became more frequent. The
drummer continued to beat with increas
ing vigor.. The garrison rushed from
their tents, and took their places along
the earthworks. Soon everything quieted
dowiu. I made tho rounds of the fortifica
tions, and found the officers at then
posts.
For a quarter of an hour we stood thus,
in expectation, of an attack; then I -dismissed
the company to their places, and
the camp returned to silence. -Youth's

Some PeeBliarltics of Indians.
If an Indian is killed in a quarrel bis
relatives are usually appeased by pay
ment. I remember once an overbearing
young Assinaboino buck came into the
Milk River agency and bent his bow and
arrow on tho agent's pet dog. The' agent
warned Mm ir no snot the dog he would
.kill the Indian. The young beck shot his
arrow: the agent killed him. We ex
pected to have somo trouble, but the grief
stricken father came forward on behalf
of tho relatives, and claimed that. In con
sideration that the' young man, being
such a good buffalo runner, the agent
must pay for the loss of such a person a
red blanket, a piece of calico and four
Sounds of sugar. He complied with their
emands, but the vengeful relatives
thereafter adopted him as their banker.
The mother and other relatives of the
slain- young man scarcely ever .met the
agent without embracing him and with
endearing epithets begging for something
more in remembrance of the good buffalo,
runner.
No gifted funeral orator can equal or'
convey the impression of tho mournful
tenderness, the exulting pride or the.
gloomy despair expressed by the untaught
savage in this mere' act of formality. An
Indian, man or woman, will be laughing
-and dancing; in a moment the merry
circle will be left, and the next moment
the same person-will lift up his voice in
heart .breaking accents, the plaintive
notes will .weep tears of mournful tender
ness, again startling defiance and war
will breathe with fierce energy the. deeds
of the silent dead; then as the sorrowful
recollections, inspired by the fate of the
fallen relative, the high pean sinks to
such supplicating despair as suggests a
lost spirit lamenting its dismal fate And
all' this is a mere formality, for the next
moment 'the weeper may be the merriest

The cry for clean lodgings, wholesome
.board, moderate and reasonable prices
goes up on every hand. ' Thousands of
clerks; both male and female, in our stores
and officesi thrown upon their own re
sources, find themselves in a huge dty
without a 'home. Students, apprentices,
young men just starting either in their
professions or in .business must live as
well as people better off. How infinitely
better for many a young man and- -young
woman if they could many when but a
few years older relatively than their par
ents when they married providing the
aforesaid young .man can support himself
and -family. .Cosunercial drummers, tour-,
ists and others, commonly known as
"transients." an army ever on the in
crease, aro -continually seeking clean and
respectablo. places whereon to lay their
heads and whereat to" be filled, with the
reasonable assurance of having .enough
money left-after paying their .hotel bills
in the morning with which to.get out of
town.
A practical solution of these much
mooted -questions the condition of the
"city slave girl" and of the "hired girl,"
and the betterment thereof to a' limited
extent at least, would seem to lie in a
proper recognition and a skillful combi
nation of these two great public demands:
(1) Tho demand, on the one hand, -for ex
perienced and trustworthy help;. (2) the 1
aenianci, on tno otuer band, for clean
lodgings, wholesome food, moderate
prices.
Now as to the "modus operandi.' Se
cure a suitable location, probably near one
of the Targe railroad stations in tho'city.
Erect there a plain, fireproof, commodious
hotel, .with the modern improvements.
f capable of comfortably accommodating
1,000 guests, both as "transients" and as
"regulars." Furnish an ordinary 60 cent
meal or bed for 25 cents, or board and
lodging at $1 per day or $3 per week.
Sueli hotel would necessarily be fur
nished very plainly throughout. Per
haps no carpets would deck tho
oiled hard pine floors. But, notwith
standing, everything could be kept scru
pulously clean; tho food could be whole
some, well cooked, and plenty of it, even
if the delicacies of the season were want
ing. And under proper management such
institution could be made to pay for itself
in time.. Prices would be so reasonable..
the service so excellent, that people would
naturally flock to such places of ref ugo
without the expense of advertising. In
.other words, it would advertise itself.
The two chief conditions for admission
into such hotel homo would begood moral
character and weekly payment in ad
van. 0.
To run such a hotel properly would prob
ably reqniro no more servants than are
today required to minister to tho wants
of an equal number of guests in any
ordinary hotel. Although tho domestics
would be novices, still tho hotel would
make little pretensions at anything but
cleanliness. Everything would bo con-
structed to save work wherever possible.
Such hotel to accommodate 1,000 guests
would require probably anywhere from
150 to 200 domestics all the time. These
servants would be under experienced in
structors, tho best that money could com
mand. For instance, dinner would bo
prepared by a class of fifty, if necessary,
each at her own range, arranged in semi
cirdes, with the chief cook in the center,
much as instruction in chemistry and
other sciences in our colleges is now im
parted. There would bo regular courses
of instruction in cuisine, in laundering,
etc. Tho primary object would be to give
each graduate adequate knowledge of how
to go into any wall regulated kitchen or
laundry and take entire charge thereof.
The immediate consideration for such
"scrricu would bo none other than board,
lodging, necessary clothes, aforesaid, in
struction, and the promise that so soon as
competent tho institution would do all in
its power to find its graduates acceptable
situations in respectable families or other
hotels at remunerative wages. The sur
plus in the receipts of this hotel for in
stance, 1,000 regular boarders at $5 per'
week or $260,000 yearly left, after paying
all running expenses, salaries of the vari
ous nece3ary instructors and assistants,
besides possibly 4 percent, interest on tho
original investment, would form a fund
from which prizes would bo given those
girls who had completed a systematic
course of training, possibly averaging. $50
to $75 cash per year for each graduate
during preparation. This would bo better
than paying them weekly wages; however
small, for the incentive to complete tho
courso, not only for. tho knowledge but
for tho pecuniary reward awaiting the
faithful, would be so strong as to prac
tically prevent their working a f ow weeks,
.getting a respectable outfit of cloth
ing, and then quitting. Then, again, re
ceiving, upon completing tho courso (in
stead of weekly) whatever pecuniary in
ducement such institution might bo able
to extend them would prevent their fool
ing away upon trifles their earnings, thus
quietly reducing to a minimum their in
ordinate desire to "run." which discipline
they would find when In service in pri
vate families not to ba their least recom
mendation. All their necessary wants
would bo supplied and they would have
no occasion for pocket money.
After a year's faithful service in such
Institution a sergeant could command
from one-third to two-thirds mora wages
than before, and after two years such
service she would receive double, or, in.
exceptional cases, triple her present
wages, besides being forever insured a
good home in some well to do and re
spectablo family. Should she afterward
'conclude to marry for with such, a wo
man it would no longer be a question
whether or not a man could be found to
ask her her husband would find her to
be a veritable treasure. E. H. Sanford in

TRAINING BALLET DANCERS.
Presalere DaascBse Recalls Her Own
Bitter Experience.
Mile. Dorst, the premiere, - sat in tho
parlor of the .Laclede the other day recall;
ing the trials she had to undergo as an
unfledged ballet dancer and prospective
premiere. "People little know," she said,
"how much labor "and misery go to make
up the pirouette of a dancing girL A
child should not begin to study dancing
after she is 10; 7 is the best age. The
limbs then are at the right degree of sup-
Sleness to take a pupil over the first dif
culties. and help her on to the lower
'quadrille,' which she may not hope to
win before she is 10. . The form then has
gamed the roundness and the flesh and
muscles the firmness requisite to the
artistic poses which create such fu
rore. In my case the daily torture com
menced at 8 o'dock. Every morning my
feet were imprisoned in a groove box, heel
against heel and knees turned outwards.
By this process'my feet accustomed them
selves naturally at last to fall into a par
allel line. This is what is called so
tourner. After, half an hour of the
groove I was subjected 'to another variety
of torment.- This time I .had to raise my
foot and place it on a bar level with my
head, which bar I was obliged to hold in
a horizontal line with the hand opposite
the foot. I was exercising. This- they
.term se casser. After these preliminary
labors we were obliged to go through a
variety of -steps and movements.
. "The teaching is necessarily long -and
painful, the primary object being to" bring,
by .sheer exercise extreme agility and
strength to the joints of the limbs and
feet. Even-in the education of the two
great toes, so' as to 'make us capable of
standing and pirouetting on them, a vast
amount of care and time is expended.
And not onlv must the nower ba acanimd.
but It must be kept up,, for which pur- "I
pose constant exercise is required. Other
wise the joints become stiff and "relapse

The Kindlier Country 'Way.
Now it is inevitable that the kindliest
people living in cities should fall into a
greater reservo of -manner-toward stran
gers than that developed in the country,
where pcoplo know all about their neigh
bors. In a city-you cannot nod to every
body you meet on the street; there is not
timo for it. You cannot even call on thoso
who live in the same block with. .you.
Yon may bo living in the next house to a.
professional gambler and have no means
of ascertaining the fact: All these things
produce in people from cities a habit of
more guarded intercourse, which is cer
tainly" less pleasant than the kindlier
country way, but is not easy to lay aside.
Again, the mere possession of a new ac
quaintance, as such, is a pxivilego to one
who habitually lives an isolated life, but
is not a thing so eagerly desired by thoso
who livo in a crowd all the time, and have
rather to acquire the habit of defending
themselves against numbers. Indeed a
great deal of what is called hospitality in
thinly settled regions and new communi
ties has no especial unselfishnsss about it;
where neighbors and guests are faw it is
really the visitor who confers tho favor.

Mass., in tie history of that town. He
ays: "Drinking habits, in varying de
gree, continued some time into the pres
ent century, so that it was.hardly dvil to
receive a call even from a minister with
out an offer of a glass of something to
tho minister it would be wine. As late
as 1618, a church council, of eighty-four
persons had at their dinner 9 decanters
of brandy, 40 bottles of - wine, and 141
cigars, besides pipes." Concerning dress,
he says: "Tho fashion followed those of
town life in Europe. A f ow of the earlier
prominent men must have had an impos
ing look. Thomas Russell,
nearly sis feet high, appeared on 'Change
hi hair powdered and tied, a" cocked hat,
.and 'sablo lined silk great eoat from Rus

When Rider Haggard wroto "Mr. Mee
son's Will," probably the queerest of ail
his queer stories, he let himself out with
a vengeance upon tho skinflint section of
tho noble guild of publishers. . The
Mcesons of the trade may possibly be the
exceptions, but whether that be so or not,
there certainly are too many of them. A
medical friend told me the other day about
one of them in New York. Tho Now York
Meeson's publishes medical works on an
extensive scale and issues two medical
periodicals besides. The periodicals are
made up mainly of professional papers,
prepared by doctors from experience in
their own practice. Not one of the
I tapers, my friend said, is paid for. The
iousc makes it a rule not to pay any of
the contributors to its periodicals. It
pays .only the editors, and these as little
as possible.
"But." I asked, "can it really get arti
cles from doctors without paying for
them articles, I mean, that are worth
printing?" Yes, he said, plenty of them;
not of tho best .quality, perhaps, but in
teresting and often useful. Many doctors
Jiko to keep their views before- the pro
fession and before the public, too, and
they do it in this way. They write the
article in their spare moments and are
satisfied with publication as compensa
tion. Then names are printed, the articles
attract somo attention, and their purposo
to keep themselves before the' public is
accomplished. Tho publishers make a
good deal of- money by these' periodicals,
especially in the advertising department,
and nearly all is clear profit. New' York

Home Ccxioas Garden Designs.
The art of the florist has made wonder
ful advances of late. Thousands of per
sons havo visited the Dan vera (Mass.) hos
pital grounds the last few. weeks. The
object in view by tho many strangers is
to see the marvelous flower beds designed
and arranged by the florist and gardener.
Etore Tassinari, which are now in prime
condition and rival anything of their kind
in tho United States.
The largest design is a Chinese, pagoda,
seventeen feet high, with -a dome sup?
ported by six pillars, and an archway be
neath high enough to pass under without
stooping. Thero are three fountains and
thirty varieties of plants. Tho front of
tho base has a calendar of growing plants
in portable boxes and the back a shield,
flags and draperies. Florists from far end
near have pronounced this design tho best
they ever saw. A solar clock or sun dial
attracts much attention, as it accurately
tells tho time .of day by a pole of growing
plants placed at . an angle of 47 degs. and
pointing to the north star. The' shadow
falls on floral numerals in the rim of a
horseshoe shaped Jbed of plants.. There
ere numerous beds of lesser .note, and
several photographs have been taken of
the principal ones. Troy Times..

HOME EDUCATION.
PLAY SHOULD BE A PART OF THE
HOUSEHOLD SYSTEM. '
Hereafter Edneatioa Win Meaa the Can

Atmosphere of the Home.
I '.Children should not be compelled to
, take to the streets for sport. It should
J .bo' a part of tho household system to
1 afford play, and-f o do it as surely and sys
i tematically as books and food. Wo have
i a good deal yet-to learn about play. We .
! should have, our hours tor sport and re
I taxation wheu the. wliolo -household
: join in 'games. . As. home' education in
J creases, and .it must increase, these hours
will bo doubly, necessary. 'I would not
j allow a child.tostndy or read over an hour
! consecutively. Then, let him play and
j exercise his body one hour. At. what age
! should we ceaso 'to play? If fools, .we may
j stop early iu life.. . Only wise people never
cease to love and eujoy games.
! But the play room u not all. This is
; tho age of manual culture. Thegrandest
! of innovations' has occurred. Hereafter
j education will mean the culture .of the
j wbolo body handcraft as -well as head
j craft. It follows tbat'each house that is
! intended for a homo'-should have its p'ro
j "vision for tho education of the hand a
I workshop; a tool room for every member
1 of tho familv to find his chosen occupa
tion. If necessary, a separate building
should adjoin tho house. Where there
are I: vu children theramay be five separate
occupations chosen. One of mine prefers
carpenters' tools and engineering, another
Ei-inters', and a third cares mainly for
orticulture.
OUK SCHOOL SYSTEM "FAULTY.
I am now advocating such household
appurtenances purely on the score of
health. Our school system is a blunder.
j No child should study from 9 till 12; and
! ACTUMlilliV itt svinma ivIiama 1iaf wnnol alt
Vpvwnuf M WVM4t7 WW MVV SUlT UlUd OIV
A child at study should, much of his lime, 1
be on ins feet, or reclining if he chooses,
and changing about. When you add the
looks taken home for evening study, you
have shown up our common method,
whereby, to perfection, wo destroy tbe
health, vigor, beauty and character of our
children. Every one is damaged, and tho
majority are spoiled. I insist upon play
as a duty, as a part of lifo. as. in fact it
self a part pf study. A teacher of play
would bo far more sensible than the piano
at $2 to $4.a lesson.
Ilbw about, dancing? As a matter of
health it is generally of no advantage
whatever. It is' no sooner acquired than
night is turned, into day; and then the
play is carried to such extremes as to be
disastrous. I havo watched this matter
from a physician's standpoint, and object
totally to three or four hours and especially"
to six or eight, devoted to hilarious danc
ing, and those hours the ones that nature
devotes to sleep. Thero is another point
I cannot overlook. It is' the close contact
of bodies in round dances a contact un
wholesome, purely from a physical point
of view. The moral effect others may
discuss, but I object to any delicato per
son bcing.borne.EO closely into tho atmos
phere of grosser, coarser ones. Tho phys
ical effect is not likely to be understood,
but it is seriously eviL I do not, there
fore, .care for dancing, unless conducted
as a part of borne sport, as it is not likely
to be.
A GOOD UCKAL ATMOSPHERE.
It is, however, folly- to talk of a
healthy home that is not charged with a
good moral atmosphere. I assure you the
moral atmosphere is as real and tangible
and ciDc'cnt as tho physical; and those
who refuse or neglect to consider It will
suffer accordingly. It is impossible for
us to have about us, In close Intimacy,
those of gross temperament and physical
sensuality, and not feel the effect on on?
bodies as well as on our minds. This holds
good, of course, of our own relation' to
ourselves. If we do not sustain a spirit
of self-control and manly aspiration' in
our souls, our bodies are diseased as a
consequence. Ono-half of all disease is
tho result of unsanitary mental condi
tions. Uniform, honor, good faith, man
hood, temperato desire, kindliness, will
have a powerful effect in sustaining vig
orous physical health.
I have a brother physician who insists
that if all people would keep in the best
of humor for ono hour before eating,
during meals and for one hour after, they
would never be troubled with any dis
orders of digestion, or with headaches.
Ho is a trifle crochety, but be is not far
from right in his valuation of good tem
per as a foo to dyspepsia. At meal time
it is peculiarly important that all should
be decorous and kindly. Tho fashion of
hasto and fret at oar meals is an indica
tion of nervous irritation, and affects
digestion directly. But in all other ways
a houso should bo delivered from the de
structive influence of immoral or unmoral
habits. An habitual scold is not only a
disagreeable termagant, but a destroyer
of tho' physical health of her children.
The effect en moral character Is tallied
by the effect on the features of the young.
I'have supposed some to bo more
sensitive to moral atmosphere than
others, but on larger experience I
am satisfied that all are influenced in this
way, and to tneir serious cetnment. ibe
art of building a healthy homo .is depend
entupon the art of being ourselves pure
hearted and honorable, generous, Just and
adaptable. M. Maurice, M. D., in Globe
Democrat. A Prophecy About hooks.
"Secondhand book stores areincreas
ing," said a gentleman the other day.
"and several gentlemen are making col
lections of old books. Some buy any
books, just so they are old, and others
make special selections. New books are
almost as cheap as old ones. Neither are
in great demand; the newspapers of today
publish all that is valuable, past, present
and future. Quarterlies crowded out
books; magazines made way with the
quarterlies, and now the newspapers have
almost filled the place of tho magazines,
there not being as many of these as there
were before the war, a quarter of a cen
tury ago. As soon as capable press and
ink are invented to print at high speed
the fine lines of an engraver, then the fine
illustrations of the magazines will appear
hi the dailies and the former will fade
away. Louisville Courier-Journal.
The Old World's Railroads.
We are, as yet, only at the edge of the
great projects of railway and other
methods of intercommunication. The
time will come when every remote hamlet
will be centralized, and no land will be
out'of easy reach to the tourist and to
commerce. The next great steps of pro
gress are to be taken in Asia. BesUea
the roads projected and building in Siberia
and China, there Is now a 1,400 mile road
proposed from Constantinople to Bagdad.
This will open a new route to China
shorter bv ten days than that by the Suez
Canal. Americans understand very well
the rapid changes that follow the opening
of such a line. Science says: "It will
create a new Asia Minor." Then, again
Bagdad will become one of the world's
great cities. Lovers of the Arabian
Nights will associate considerable ro
mance with this latest project of com
merce. Globe-Democrat.
Very CosrrsstfeB Word.
Speaking of writing letters reminds us
of one we saw a day or two ago, in which
a new word was used, that is to say, it
will be new to many of you, though it
has been employed in business corre
spondence for some time. A clause of the
letter ran thus: "We hand you herewith
porno for $10, which please place to our
credit, eta.' Now, what is 'porno? you
ask. That is simply a very convenient
contraction for "post office money order."
It deserves to be formally adopted into
the language; and no doubt it will be.
