On DRINKING AT MEALs,-li is I'M uri-
Gus to drink much Il, meals. Those who
take large quantity of liquids at dinner
generally eat mole than those who take
less. The sensation Of thirst depends
upon the quantity of aqueous fluid circu-
Ia'ng in the blood. 1t has been fonnd by
psychologists that the most severe thirst
of animals is appeased by injecting waite
ry fluids into the blood. A moderate
quantity of liquid should be taken at din
ner; too large portion acts injnriously
by diluling the gastric fluid Persons
whose diet is more animal than Vegetable,
require more liquid during their meals,
Drinking before meal is pernicious,
whilst by drinking during meal the di-
sestive process is promoted. Those who
eat fast require more drink than do 9TH

LIFE.

LIFE.
1t is gay and glittering cloud,
Born in the light of day,
1t lies upon the gentle hilIs,
Rosy, and sweet, and far away.
1t burns again when noon is high
Like molten gold lis clothed in light;
IT'S beautiful and glad as love-
Ajoyous, soul-entrancing sight.
But now It's fading in the West,
On the Towering heaven witherod leaf,
As faint as shadows on the grass
Thrown by CLEAN ofmoonshinc brief.
So life is born, grows up, and dies,
As clouds upon the world of light;
1t comes in JOY, and moves in love,
Thcn-gcntly fades away in night.
