phcated too many small castings and traps consequent
y too liable to get out of repair that they have too
many wearing or friction places therefore hard to operate

can easily be Sharpened, if necessary, can be
made by any blacksmith All warranted to give sat

Eating and sleeping.

Halls journal of Health saws: Fo,
persons who eat three times q dav. il Is
amply sufficient to make the last meal OF
cold bread and butter and cup of warm
Drink. No one can starve on it, while a
perseverance in the habit soon begets a
vigorous appetite for breakfast so prom.
Using OF day of comfort"
Yes, yes: by emitting the third meal.
the individual, besides securing a night
OF sound sleep, will not find on awaken
ing IN the morning bad taste in his
mouth SO indicative of general foulness.
ii one would only have sweet mouth
and clean tongue, he can secure them
both by simply ceasing to overtax his
stomach. This frequent eating is an idle,
mlschleyious habit, ruinous of both health
and comfort; and it prevents the indi-
vldual froRTeceiving the great amount
OF enjoymenewhich it was intended he
should receive from eating, and which is
necessary to perfect nutrition.
Nothing should be eaten between the
regular meals, whether these meals are
taken either two or three times dav:
nor should one eat SO that the quantity
lngested will induce hcaviness or uncom.
Portable feelings.
The cook tastes the food she prepares;
ana by this frequent tasting she DESTROYS
both the relish for her meals and her
health. There are many housekeepers
who have the same pernicious habit.
We know farmers who, at the close of
long summer day, during which they
nave eaten heartily five times and worked
hard from 4 O'Clock in the morning to 9
o'clock at night, cat freely just before go
ing to bed.
The stomach, already enfeebled by
constant working under Instantaneous
circumstances, has now imposed on it an
impracticable task and the men lie down
to sleep! Next morning they are nerve
less-havc scarcely slept all night-feel
more wearied than they did when they
lay down-and on the whole think the
farmer lives a dogs life. So he does, so
far as he sinks to mere Misunderstanding
to eat-taxing his digestive apparatus at
the expense of health, life, and life's en-
joyments. So on from day to day, till
nature makes desperate effort to rid the
body of the superfuous food introduced
into it, burning it up by fever, or expell-
ing by some different remedial effort.
Farmers, being so much in the open
air, with abundant exercise, should be
the healtiest people; but like others who
are cursed with abundance of Bread"
they are rheumatic, bilious, dyspeptic.
This is shame and sin. Farmers it
is sin. Your liver complaints, chill fe-
vers, etc., are as unnecessary as is the
plague. Health and sweet sleep will
come to you when you need, unless by
bad habits you drive them away. "Go
and sin no more. Life Illustrated.
