Eating Without an Appetite.

1t is wrong to eat without an appetite,
for it shows there is no gastric Juice IN
the stomach, and that nature does not
need food, and not needing it, there
being no fluid to receive and act upon
it, it remains there only to purify, the
very thought of which should be sufii-
cent to deter any man from eating with
ont an appetite for the remainder of his
life. If tonic is taken to whet the ap-
petite it is a mistaken course, for its
only result is to cause one to eat more,
when already an amount has been eaten
beyond what the gastric juice is able to
prepare.
The object to be obtained is larger
supply of gastric juice, not larger sup
ply of food /; and whatever fails to have
any efficiency towards the cure of dys-
peptic diseases. The formation of gas
tric juice is directly proportiOned to
the wear and tear of the system, which
it is to be the means of supplying, and
this wear and tear can only be the re.
suit of exercise. The efficient remedy
for dyspepsia is work-eut-door work.
beneficial and successful in direct pOr.
portion as it is agreeable, interesting
and profitable.

The First Element of a Home.

1 never saw garment too fine for
man or maid there was never a chair
too good for a cobbler or cooper to sit
in never house too fine to shelter the
human head. These elements about us.
the gorgeous sky, the imperial sun. are
not too good for the human race. Ele-
gance fits man. But do we not value
these tools of housekeeping little more
than they are worth, and sometimes
mortgage home for the mahogany we
would bring into it ? had rather eat
my dinner off the head of barrel, or
dress after the fashion of John the Bap-
fist in the wilderness, or sit on q block
all my life, than consume all myself
before get home, and take so much
pains with the outside that the inside
was as hollow as an empty nut. Beauty
is great thing, but beauty of garments,
house and furniture is very tawdry
ornament compared with domestic love.
All the elegance in the world will not
make a home, and l would give more
for a spoonful of hearty love than for
whole ship-loads of furniture, and all
the upholesters of the world could
gather together.

1t might be an accident, probably it was,
or it might be misfortune which lasted
all through life. How inexpensive was
that phrase ''paying attention." as if
that did not belong more to marriage
than to courtship, and the phrase was
not infrequently heard in former years,
which was immortalized by Mrs. Pod
snap, "Bless me, they have gone on
their bridal tour to become acquainted
with each other" fit were possible to
have preliminary bridal tour, under
proper escort, and the young couple
had experience of the annoyances nee
essarily entailed by trip of that char
acter, and if they were familiar with the
tempers and dispositions of each other,
the wonder would be, not that there
are so few happy marriages under the
arrangements of modern society, but
that there were so many. Marriage was
not partnership. He did not wish to
be understood as saying that alone, for
it was cold word. Marriage was a
companionship. Driving home from the
business cares, as Disraeli used, they
would find that the old individuality
was gone, that q new companion
ship existed; and as the best illustra-
ton of the idea of marriage, he would
go back to the time of Lord William
Russell, who was represented at his trial
by his wife, and of all the pictures which
hung in the historic temple, there was
none so attractive and beautiful as the
picture of Lady Russell in companionship
with her husband, not only in the court
room, but in the prison, and in his last
moments. And, if they asked for a
definition of true marriage, it was
compressed in the word companionship.

Famous Trees.

Individual trees, planted by famous
men, are still to be seen by the pilgrims
who visit their homes and haunts. In
the last century, there was quite Il fash
ion for planting willows. 1t is said
that the first weeping willow seen in
England was sent to the poet Pope, as a
present, from Turkey, by his friend,
Lady Mary Worthy Montagu, and
planted by him in his garden at Twick-
enham. 1t is the famous Sa'ir Baby-
lOnica of the Psalter, npon which, on
the banks of the Euphrates, the weep
ing daughters of Jerusalem hung their
harps. Garrick planted two willows on
his lawn, beside his Shakespeare tenn
pie (; in the midst of thunder storm,

and devoted widow of the great actor

ANTIQUITY OF MAN
Fhve Hundred Thousand Years at Leas,
-Speculations Of MIR. Alfred Russell
Wallace.

Five Hundred Thousand Years at Least
-Speculations Of MIR. Alfred Russell
Wallace.
In the issue of Nature for Oct 9.
Alfred Russell Wallace INDUCES in some
speculations on the probable antiquity
OF the human species, which may well
startle even those who have long since
come to the conclusion that 5000 years
carry MS but small way back to the
original homo. In fact, in Mr.. Wal
lace's reckoning, 5000 years are as a
day. He begins by complaining of the
timidity of the scientific men when
treating of this subject, and points out
the fallacy of always preferring the
lowest estimate, in order to be "on the
safe SIDE" He declares that all the
evidence tends to show that the safe
side is probably with the large figures.
He reviews the various attempts to de-
termine the antiquity of human remains
or works of art, and finds the bronze
age in Europe to have been pretty
accurately fixed at 5000 to 1000 years
ago, the stone age of the Swiss lake
dwellings at 5000 to 1000 years "and
an indefinite anterior period" The
burnt brick found sixty feet deep in the
Nile alluvium indicates an antiquity of
10000 wears another fragment at
seventy-twO feet gives 10000 years
ga human skeleton found at depth of
sixteen feet below four buried forests,
superposed upon each other, has been
calculated by DIR. Dowler to have an
antiquity of $4,000 years" But all
these estimates pale before those which
Kent's cavern at Torquay legitimates.
Here the drip of the stalagmite is the
chief factor of our computations, CIV
ing lis an upper floor which "divides
the relics of the last two or three thou
sand years from deposit full of the
bones of extinct mamalia, many of
which, like the reindeer, mammoth and
gluttOn, indicate an arctic climate"
Names cut into this stalagmite more
than 200 years ago are still legible; i'll
other words, where the stalagmite is
twelve feet thick, and the drip still very
copious, not more than hundredth of
foot has been deposited in two GEN.
turies-a rate of five feet in 1900
years. Below this, however, We have a
thick, much older, and more crystalline
Ii. e., more slowly formed) stalagmite,
beneath which again, in solid brec-
cha, very different from the cave of
earth, undoubted works of art have
been found" Mr.. Wallace assumes
only 10000 years for the upper floor,
and about 80, 900 for the lower, and
adds $50, 600 for the intermediate cave
earth, by which he arrives at the "sum
OF half a million as representing the

tain the necessary heat and keep the
