Frequency and Time orEating.

Some avoid luncheon for fear of Spelling
the dinner" whereas the thing they moss
need Is to have it spoiled. Where the in.
tervsls between the meals are 50 long as to
produce pressing hunger, something should
be taken between them to stay the appetite
and prevent over eating. Late and hearty
suppers are to be reprobated. Active d.
gestion aud sleep mutually disturb each
other, as at night the exhalation of carbonic
gas is lowest, and tissue changes most re-
tarded, the overloaded blood is not relieved
and invades the repose of the brain. pro-

extreme, of sitting up late. and going ~
bed wearied, hungry, and with an .indefn
able sense of sinking followed by restless
uurefreshing sleep. A little light nour>
ishment in such cases may prevent these
unpleasant effects. Custom has fixed the
daily number oe meals at from three to
five probably three is the smaller number
that consists with well sustained vigor of
the system; four or five may be objection
able, the amount os n0urishmeut taken each
time being less. The essential thing is
regularity in each case, in order that the

We should not take our meals when tired

IN the exhaustion, and is thus untitled for
the performance of it's proper and active
duties. If there has been severe exercise,
either of body or mind, short Interval

food, and is at the lowest diurnal point of
weakness from want of nourshment. Ii
Is we'll understood that the body is more
susceptible to the morbid influence of colds
miasms, and all noxious agencies, in the
morning before eating than any other time,
and those exposed to the oueu air before
getting anything to eat, in anguish regions
are infinitely more liable to be affected,
than those who have been fortified by

even the contrary. Yet in most instances.

1t is curious, and it is instructive, to
remark how heartily men, as they grow
toward middle age, despise themselves as
they were year since. 1t is bitter thing
for a man to confess that he is fool but
it costs little for man to confess that be
was fool, good while ago. Indeed, a
tacit compliment to his present self is in
volved in the latter confess ion it suggests
the reflection since then. When man in
forms US that he was a very silly fellow in
the year 1851, 1t is assumed that he is not
q silly fellow in the year 1861. 1t is as
when the merchant with ten thousand dol,
lars year sitting at sumptuous dinner,
and slipping his Al claret, tells you how
when he came as a raw lad from the coun-
try he used often to 60 without bis dinner.
He knows that the plate, the wine, the
massively elegant apartment, the silent
servants, so alert, yet 80 impassive, will
appear to join in chorus with the obvious
suggestion, You see he has not to go with
out his dinner now!"

Who wants TO be an Editor :

Some people think it is big thing to
be an editor. Well perhaps it is-but we
don't see 1t. A fellow is dead-headed into
clrcuses and concerts, and rides or some Of
the railroads free, bat that one fact destogs
neatly all of the pleasure. When " sssss..fl
to scrimp for week to get liar to buy
a circus ticket, the delight we experienced
was proPortiOnate to the sacrifice of monev
1t cost Us. Wien you can ride on q rail-
road for nothing you dent care snap
about going at all and so on. An editor
occasionally gets presents, but they are
nine times out of tea articles that are of no
sort OF use to him or any one else
In bis paper he may say forty good things
unapI liuded, but if he happens though
some carelessness or mistake to get off an
abnoxious paragraph he catches jesse from
the entire community. If he omits any,
thing he is lazy. II he speaks of things as
they are, people are mad. If he glosses
Over-smootbs down the rough points, he
Is bribed. If he calls things by their pro-
per names, he is unfit for the position of
editor. If he does not furnish his readers
with jokes, he is mullet If he does he
is a rattle head, wanting stability. If he
condemns wrong he is good fellow, but
lacks discretion. If he lets wrongs and
injuries go unmentioned, he is a coward.
IF he upholds a public man he does it to
gratify spite-is the tool of clique, or be
longs to the out If he INDUCES in per-
sonalities he is blackguard-if he does
not, his paper is dull and insipid.
They put Job through a pretty hard
course of sprouts according to Holy Writ,
but there is no record of his being obliged
to serve as an editor. That would doubt
less have been more than even his patience
could have withstood. A probably in such
a case would have taken the advice of his
friends-cursed and died.-DuJnque pa

OLD THINGS GONE BY.-The day when
it was considered interesting and lady like
to be always ailing has gone by. Good
health, fortunately, is the ashion. A rosy
cheek is no longer considered vulgar and
fair, shapely allowance of flesh on the
bones is considered the style Perhaps
the great secret that good looks cannot exs
list without good health, may have some
thing to do with the care now taken to OBJ

generations are the gamers all the same.
