Brain work costs more food than
hard work. According to careful es-
TINA es and analyses of the excretions,
three hours of hard study wear out
the body more than a whole day of
severe physical labor. Another evil
dence Of the cost of brain work is OBJ
tanned from the fact that though the
brain is only one ortieth the weight
of the body it receives about one-tifth
of all the blood sent by the heart into
the system. Brain workers, therefore,
require more liberal supply of food,
and richer food, than manual laborers.

Death Of Horace Greeley.

&AAh6 Va ARoS "SNhI "AsSA es 'A'S'N
Of illness, superinduced by intense
strain of physical and mental power,
incident to an arduous political cam
paign. To this was added patient, ex-
haustive watchings by the side of a
dying wife, whose death was closely
followed by overwhelming political
defeat before the great tribunal of the
American people Few instances oc-
eur where misfortunes Of such magni-
.ude are visited upon single family
in such rapid and quick succession.
So deep and so penetrating has this
sudden and melancholy event affect
sd the American people, that, al
though they chose another, friends and
foes throughout the country, are uni
sed and concurrent in the fact that a
great, good, and mighty man has been
lost to the country and the world =
Lips, erewhile so blatant of political
d etraction, are not only hushed to
stiffness by the clods which fall upon
his coffin, but are eloquent with eulo-
gy. So commanding is the respect for
the illustrious dead that the President
gracefully leaves his chair, the Cabi-
net breaks its routine, and the superior
branch of the National Legislature
adjourns, to show the world how a
great people honrs the sovereignty of
intellect
Mr.. GREELEy's great abilities as a
journalist require no mention. In this
profession he has, by general consent,
long since stood at the head. His
opinions were always originally and
fearlessly expressed, no matter who
rose or fell by the stroke of his pen.
In the common walks Of life he was
large-souled and large hearted. He
committed errors and sustained defe It's
but the calendar of right records a
vast plurality Of his triumphs.
His life was marked by the vcissi-
tudes common to all who have to
struggle upward from the lower walks,
but Its success was so splendid that
even the Presidency would not have
touched it with additional lustre.-
In his own mind there was grandeur
in the thought of having founded that
potential engine of public opinion, the
New York Tribune, but the more en-
tighten I'd j 'dgment Of coming gen
erations of men will confer, if possible,
more magnificent distinction by Just
ly esteeming him the printer-philoso-
pher of the nineteenth century.

Extraordinary Fishing.

The Maysville (Ky.) Republican has
this account of fishing extrao binary
" Mr.. c. j. Cheshire, during his recent
trip up the Kanawha, made some ex-
periments with nitro, lycerine as an
agent for catching fish. AT the Kan
awha Falls he sunk tin cartridge con-
tanning about one pound Of glycerine,
and connecting it with a battery, its
explosion threw up a volume of water
some thirty feet high. With the water
was thrown up some eightysix fish,
averaging from one and half to thir-
teen pounds each. The fish were not
killed, being merely stunned, and were
rapidly picked up by boat at the foot
of the rapids. The experiment was re.
peated twice, being equally successful.
The prime results were that three
pounds of glycerine were used, and $50
pounds of fish secured. If any of our
piscatorial friends can beat this fishing
we would like to hear from them"

carry out this intention of her Maker.

girls look well, as well as to live to some
purpose, we would urge upon them
such course of reading and study as
will confer such as no modiste can sup
ply. A we'll known author once wrote
a pretty essay on the power of educa-
ton to beautify that it absolutely
chiseled the features that he had seen
many clumsy nose and pair of thick
lips so modified by thought awak ened
and active sentiment as to be unrecog
nizible. And he put it on that ground
that we so often see people, homely and
unattractive in youth, bloom in mid

Of good looks and mellow tones.
