Too Much BREAD.-Many dietetical reformers
make serious mistake when they leave off the
use of meat. They think that bread is the
staff of life, and that they cannot well eat too
much of it. They should remember that Man
should not live by bread alone" and practice
accordingly. have known many persons to
leave off eating meat and live almost exclusively
on bread. The consequence was-their diet being
too concentrated-tha they took far too much
nutriment into their stomachs, their systems be-
came obstructed and their health impaired
thereby. certain quantity of bread is good
but to live upon it exclusively is ruinous to the
health Less bread, and more fruit and vegeta-
bles, should be the rule for the above class OF
persons-Journa{ of Health

FNAxcIERNG.-A fnanciering Cyprian pur-
chased fashionable residence in Fifth avenue,
New York, for 5000 Thither she moved her
establishment, young ladies, visitors and all.
The neighbors were of course incensed and in
dignant. They tried to get her out by law
The law proved poweress. Money succeeded
better. She was induced to move by offer oi
$3.50, 900. She cleared $50, 600 in six months
We knew a much cheaper and cleverer method
of getting rid of a disreputable neighbor, to be
adopted with success in New York. A strono
calcium light was every night brought to bear
directly on the door of the naaison de joie, and
numerous feminine eyes were flashing through
opera glasses, for the purpose of detecting the
patrons of the establishment. OF course no man
would think of running the gauntlet of all this
public observation; and SO the house died ou,
for want of necessary support, and the inmates
departed for more congenial localities.

INTELLIGENCE OF AYTs.-Each ant in an ant
hill knows its companions. Mr.. Darwin several
times carried ants from one bill to another in
habited apparently by tens of thousands of ants
but the strangers were invariably detected and
killed Thinking that there nigh. be family
odor by which they were recognized, he put
some ants from very large nest into bottle
strongly perfumed with assafetida, and restored
them after twenty-four hours. At first they
were threatened by their companions but soon
recognized and allowed to pass.

IL the Island of Goa, near Bombay, there is a
singular vegetable called the "sorrowful tree, +"
because it only fourishes ia the night. At sun
set no flowers are to be seen, and yet after half
an hour the tree is full of them. They yield a
sweet smell, but the sun no sooner begins to
shine upon them than some of them fall off and
others close up; and some continue Towering in
the night during the whole gear.

HAIR AND WOMEN" Your hair wants cut
ting" quoth the barber.
~ don't want it cut. You BARRIERS are after
mans hair the moment it grows out of your
stereotyped regulation clip"
"When the hair gets too long it is apt to fall
off. Your hair is coming out now"
"That's the story BARRIERS have been telling
me for the last twenty years. Now 1 want to
know why, if keeping mans hair clipped so
closely, as demanded by the fashion of the pres
ent day is necessary to its preservation, why the
same rule does not hold with regard to women.
AS a general thing, they allow the hair to grow
as long as Nature wants it. Do you see many
bald headed women? am inclined to believe
that this constant cutting and clipping has
something to do with the badness so prevalent
amongst men. You say the hair is a sort of
plant. If you keep up constant practice of
shifting off the top of any plant, it will finally
die down to the root. There's such thing as
over-pruning."
AT this juncture the barber grew metaphysical.
"Qute a mistake" said he. ats a man s
brain that so often kills his hair. Men think
more than women. They worry and fret about
their business. They use their brains more.
Fact is, they have more brains. Well, using the
brain much keeps the scalp heated. This
dries up the roots of the hair. So the shorter
you keep the hair, the cooler it must be and the
longer it will last. But women do not think so
much as men. You give woman plenty to eat
and dress her as she likes-that's nearly all she
wants. Her brain is not so active. So her
skull is not heated up like mans, and the hair
is kept healthy. That's the reason of the differ
ence," said the barber, triumphantly.
The above is no work of fiction. 1t is real
ity which transpired in this city last Wednesday
1t is useful, as it shows an estimate of hair and
especially women, held not only by single bar
Der, but probably large class of which he may
be a fitting representative. - San Francisco

Though nothing is seen to be pass'd;

The Stream.

o stream descending to the sea,
Thy mossy banks between
Thy flow'rets blow, the grasses grow,
The leafy trees are green.
IN garden plots the children play,
The fields the laborers till,
Aud houses stand on either hand,
And thou descendest still.
o life descending into death,
Our waking eyes behold
Parent and friend thy lapse attend,
Companions young and old.
Strong purposes our minds possess,
Our hearts affections fill;
We toll and earn, we seek and learn,
And thou descendest still.
O end to which our currents tend,
Inevitable sea
To which we flow, what do we know,
What shall VIC guess Of thee!
A roai we hear upon the shore
As we of course fulfil;
Scarce we divine a sun will shine
And be above US still.

The GREAT MEDICAL MISTAKE of former days
was IN utter neglect Of sanitary precautions.
No efficient means were adopted for the pre-
vention of sickness Sewerage was unknown
in cities; drainage was rarely attempted in the
country. Heaps Of ofal were left to rot in the
public streets, and domestic cleanliness, the
great antidote to febrile diseases, was sadly ne
elected. II is not so now, Wise laws, phi
lanthropic institutions, and q vigilant sanitary
police have, to a great extent, remedied tie
evil. Nor is this all. PREVENTIVE MEDICATION
has helped materially to lessen the rates of NOR
tality. II is not too much to say that TENS OF
