What kind of food has the most nour-
ishment and costs the least, is question
of great practical importance. Accord
ing to the Journds of Health, dollars
worth of meat at twenty five cents pound,
goes as far as fifty cents worth Of butter
at half dollar a pound Three pounds
I OF -four at eight cents pound, is said to
contain as much nutriment as nine pounds
of roast beef, which, at 25 cents, is 81, 20;
that is, 25.cents worth Of -four gees as far
as nine times that much money spent for
roast beef, as weighed at the butchers
stalls. Al pint of white beans, weighing
enc pound, and costing seven cents, con-
tains as much nutriment as 81 pounds OF
foast beef costing 878 oeuts.
of all the articles that can be eaten,
the cheapest are bread, butter, molasses,
beans and rice. A pound of corn meal
Ondian) goes as far as pound of -four;
so that of fine family -four at SIC barrel,
and corn meal at four cents a pound, the
latter is just one half less expensive. II
sorn and wheat were ground, and the
whole product bran and all, were made
into bread, fifteen per cent. of nutriment
would be saved, with much greater health
fnlness.

Wrecks of Humanity.
WHY SHOULD THEY s1NK7


The excitement of "the chase" has always
been supposed to have healthful tendency;
but there is kind of chase which breaks
down the constitution, debilitates the frame,
and shortens life. We mean the headlong
unintermitting hunt after "the almighty dol
lar" which is the great business characteris-
tic Of the present day, 1t begets other evils
unnecessary to name) which precipitate the
fate of thousands. There is, however pos,
sibility of recovery from the prostration pro-
duced by these causes, long after their victim
has ceased to hope for it. If we are rightly
informed, the most astonishing cnres of what
is called general weakness and debility, which
have ever been known in this country, have
been effected through the agency of Doct or
Holloway's inestimable remedies. Mere skel-
etons of men, out of whom the very prinei-
pie OF vitality seemed to have been drained,
have been restored to health and vigor by the
operation of the Pills; and of the Ointment,
in case of paralysis rheum atism, &C., we hear
an equally favorable account. If men will
break down their energies by exertion--
| II, IN their anxiety to ''go ahead" they will
override the most precious of Gods blessings,
health-it is well they should know how to
repair the mischief, when they come at last
| to realize the fact of their premature decay
The wrecks of humanity, who, without ans
particular disease, appear to be sinking from
immediate relief from Doctor Holloway:
