IlINTs ON flEALTn.-Avoid excess offood

avoid long fasting. Do not hurry from din

Never cat things out of season, nor much of

Much liquid at dinner delays DIGESTION
Avoid inicmpcrancc. Water is the most
wholesome beverage. Excess of fermenied
liquors is highly injurious. Useful cxeriion
is indispensable 10 health and happiness. -
Muscular exercise, well regulated, is conduc-
tive TO longevity. The sodentary should
walk whenever they have an opportunity
Never continue exercise after it has become
painful. Standing at high desk to write,
when fatigucd with sitting, will be found
highly beneficial to literary men. The con-
slant use of soft stuffed seats is iniurous.-
Rooms in which the sedcntary are employed,
should be warmed ny fires in open CRATES,
which assist ventilation ;not by steam, hot
water, gas, or close ovens. Never stand or
sit with your back to the fire. Mental en-
citemcnt is one of the most prevalent causes
OF disease, producing dyspepsia, monon,ania,
and insanity. Few things tend more to the
preservation of health, and the proIongaton
OF llic, than the maintenance of calm
