Eating and Sleeping.

Halls Journal Of Health SAYS; For
persons who eat three times a aday, it is am
ply sufficient to make the last meal of cold
bread and butter and a cup Of warm wa
ter. No one can starve on it, while per,
severance in the habit soon begets a Wig
orous appetite for breakfast so promising
day Of comfort"
Yes, yes; and by omitting the third meal
the individual, besides securing night of
sleep, will not find on awakening in the
morning bad taste in bis mouth 50 vim
dictive Of general foulness.
II one would always have a sweet mouth
and clean tongue, he can cure them botA
by simply ceasing 10 overtax his stomach.
This frequent eating is an idle, mischisv-
Gus habit, ruinous Of both health and COM
fort; and it prevents the individual from
receiving the great amout Of enjoyment
which it was intended be should receive
from eating, and which is necessary to per,
feet nutrition.
Nothing should be eaten between the
regular meals, whether these meals are ia.
ken either two o. three times a day, n 7
should one eat SO that the quantity inges-
ted will induce heaviuess or uncomfortable
feelings.
The cook tastes the food she prepares;
and by this frequent hastings she destroys
both the relish for her measand her health.
There are many housekeepers who have
the same pernicious habit. We know far
mers who, at the close of long summer
day, during which they have eaten hearth
" five times, and worked hard from four
o'clock in the morning TO nine at night,eat
freely just before going to bed.
The stomach, already eufeebleI by con.
slant working under dissdvantageous cir.
cumstances, has now imposed on it an inn
practicable task, aud the men lie down to
sleep! Next morning they are Derveless
have scarcely slept sll 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 be sinks
to mere animalism--living to eat--taxing
his digestive apparatus at the expense Of
health, life, and life's eojoyments. So on
from day to day, till nature makes a des-
perate effort to rid the body Of the super
huous food introduced into it, burning it
up by fever,or expelling it by some differ,
ert remedial effort
Farmers, being so much in the open air,
with abundan. exercise should be the health
lest people; but like others who are cur
sed with abundance of bread they are
rheumatic, bilious. dyspeptic. This is a
shame and sin. FarmersI it is sin. Youl
liver complaints, chills fevers, ETC.. are as
unnecessary as 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

OBsTREPERoUs BULLs.-A Cunard
steamer lately arrived at Boston, at late
hour on a Saturday night, and it was pro.
posed, as usual in such cases, to leave the
baggage unopened until daylight. The
English passengers, ,however,so unanimous
ly and earnestly opposed such procedure
that the rule WAS broken over,ard the pas.
seugers at once landed. The cause Of their
excitement has since been satisfactorily ex.
planned. A young Bostonian on board
himself in hurry to get on shore, inform.
ed these intelligent Britons that the Puri'
tanical laws Ofthe commonwealth would
compel them, in case they waited until
morning, to remain on board through the
whole Of Sunday, as the city gates were
always closed for twenty'four hours on thai

FIRST SABBATH School IN ONO. Mrs.
Mary Lake opened the first Sabbath school
ever taught in Ohio, in the summer Of
l791, in the north. east block house of the
garrison called "Campus Maritus," in Ma
rietta. 1t was commenced during the time
the Indian wars compelled parents TO keep
their children in the garrison; and with
but four or five pupils, but afterwards in
creased to about twenty. 1t was discon,
tinued in 1895, Mrs. Lake having moved
away. Mr.. Horace Nye, of Putnam, and
Mr.. Samuel Shipmen, of Marietta, are the
only survivors Of this school. No Other
Sabbath School was opened in Marietta til
