Food.

Three classes of food materials are
to be combined in requisite proportions
to satisfy the conditions of nutrition.
These are-1st, the blood formers, or
those albuminates which not only supply
substance to the blood, but aid to make
bones, sinews, muscles, and ligaments /;
I'd, the heat producers, such as are rich
in carbon, andcarry on with the inhaled
oxygen the process of combustion, to
maintain the needful temperature of
the body; Sd, the nutritive salts, which
remain after the combustion of the
food. as ash.
Each orga- -equires its food, and IN
the waste of the working of organic life
the loss of those substances which are
i'm the living body in small quantities
must be supplied. Such substances are
iron, common salt, phOsphOric acid,
lime, magnesia, and potash. Without
iron the blood cOrpuscles lose their
vitality; without lime phosphate no
bone; Just as without albumen no mus
cular tissues, OF without fat no brain.
One food stuff consists principally OF
blood producers; another of the heat
makers; another of the nutritive salts
Hence eating does not always supply
true nutrition, and though the natural
guidance of the appetite may be more
or less correct, there is such a condition
as abnormal, disease producing nutri-
tion; vet the appetite is better than
any theOretic rule, and, apart from GER
tain general principles, better than
chemical ANALYSIS at its present stage.
To get all the nutritive elements, a
variety of food is necessary. The re-
pugnance of the palate to an Oft-re-
peated dish is the assertion of its natu-
raj demands by the human organism
To keep one organ from its food de-
ranges not only it but the whole sys-
tenn.
Each of the three classes of alImeni
is found diversely in both animals and
plants; the Oodformers in the fibrine
blood and muscles of animals, albumer
of eggs, caseine of milk, lime and areo-
lar tissue of cartilage, sinew and skin
gluten of grains, legumine of peas and
beans, and albumen of sundry roots
leaves, and fruits; the heat producers
are furnished by animal fats and vege,
table oils, while starch, sugar, gum
and their allied substances, during the
process of digestion, are TRANSFORMED
into fats. Water, as well as animals
and plants, supplies the salts.

Poetry.
THE VILLAGE BEAUTY.

There she stands just within the trellised
porch,
Her fair face turned to meet the summer air.
Half standing. and half lesning lazly
Against the lattice. thick with flowerets fair
Here bend the roses heavy from the stem.
And spreads the jasmine in profusion sweet,
The grand wisteria droops above her head,
While pink fringed daisies blossom at her feet
The eglantine caresses her Young cheek.
The soft wind frolics with her shining hair
And truant lock escaped from the band
Flutters its gold on her forehead fair.
Her hat hangs listlessly down from her hand,
While her fingers toy with its ribbons blue:
From under her simple but dainty dress
Peeps a dainty foot ia Z buokled shoe.
She gazes Greamily out on the scene
of coppice, and lane. and sunny field
With ewes whose lustre their lashes strive
In vain to conceal, though they may shield.
A stiffness lies IN the scented air.
4 delicious languor broods over ALL
And non yht Is heard save the hum of bees
And the murmEr of some brooklet's fall.
Ask not her thoughts, seek not to understand
The subjects which engross her maiden mind,
For If we knew them, they percbance might
be
What in 50 sweet place 'twsre strange to
find
But fondly hope that they would be tit theme
For painters canvas or for poets sonnet;
How it would mar the tender scene TO know.
Her thoughts were centered in her next new
bonnet

The sharp man IL mistaken for the

and this il the next thing tew being q

The sharp man IL like a razor-gen-
orally too sharp for anything but a

These men are not to be trusted
they are SO constituted tina. they must
cheat somebody, and, rather than be
idle or lose a good job, they will pitch
into their best friends.
They are not exactly outcasts, but
live close on the borders OF criminality,
and are liable tew step over emmy time

Sharp men have but few friends, and
seldum q confdant. They learn to feai

They are always bizzy, but like the
hornet want heap Of sharp Watching
The sharp man IL always vain one,
He prides himself upon his cunning
and had rather do shrewd thing THAI

Did it never strike you Gt is my ambition
to let little vein of philosophy run through
this dull drossy ore Of my discourse) that
royal personages must needs have music at
their fessts, not only to save their guests
from embarrassment and discomfort, but to
aid in tiding over the dreary time Of their
own state dinner hour? l say state, for
have heard that some royalties have been
accustomed to make their real dinner at
in the afternoon instead of 8, and at the
former rational hour have regaled very
heartily and merrily indeed on roast shoul-
der of mutton, with onion sauce. But apart
from such furtive indulgence in repasts not
strictly sanctioned by etiquette, must not
the royalties spend the major portions Of
their lives in a well-nigh intolerable state

the earth, il is certain; but must they not
grow tired of being perpetually assured
orally. in pictures and in print, that they
are salt and savory, or sweet and smiling
l have often wondered why Princes and
Princesses were so inordinately fond OF
having their eartes de uisite taken. To judge
from the avalanches of eartes in the shop
windows, the gIand folks must spend half
their time in Photographic studio; and at
first was inclined to think that vanity, IA
failing from which not even royalty il ex-
emp,, had something to do with this addic-
tedness to being focused. On reflection 1t
has occurred to me that photography must
be a relaxation and q relief to overbored
ROYALTY. The deferential chat Of the opera
tor may prove as amusing to the crown head
as the Sinking gossip Of the court barber
used to be in old days. The operator must
talk-how otherwise is he to tell you how
to hold your leg, and on which leg to stand,
and at what object pinned on the curtain BY
the side of his camera to look! And you
must answer him, too, all grand as yon may
be. Then he arranges the folds OF your
dress. or puts a book in your hand or q
flower between your fingers; and all these
petty services and inevitable familiarities
may be so many distractions" and "deia'se-

"The broadest general remark that L
can make on the topic which occupies
our society, as result OF my travels
during the past six months, is, that all
animals out of Egypt are, comparatively
speaking, in Paradise. The sights in

sees in the streets of Alexandria and
Cairo are CROUCH to break ones heart.
CALLED places, a quarter OF a yard

TRAY ASA CAIcHRR.-To our surprise,
when walking through Lafayette Square
we saw a bevy of boys playing base ball
with dog in the capacity of catcher
a middle-sized yellowlsh dog, half
pointer-catching the ball in his mouth
with an accuracy that was really aston
ishing. For half an hour, during which
we witnessed this novel game of base
ball, the dog did not miss the ball a
single time. And more than this, when,
at our request, one of the boys threw
the ball into the grass for distance OF
about fifty fet, his canine catcher
found it in an instant, and brought it
back. The dog is evidently trained for
the national game. and may yet make
his mark as the champion catcher IN
this city.-NeiG Orleans Times.

A THoUGHTFUL BoY.-"The birds get
very tame here, in spite of the noise of
the crowds in the streets. Just under
my window, in comparatively shell
tered place, lad has placed four bricks
for walls, and filed the enclosed space
with bread crumbs; the birds soon
found ont the supply, and came in
amazing numbers to feed there. At
one time / saw six little brown sparrows
and robin in a circle on the bricks,
all eating from their sunken table ; then
came two pigeons, who were so big that
there was only room for two or three
81 rrows while they were there, but
twenty or thirty sat on the fence wait
ing, and the trees were full of the
cheerful twittering of many more. Two
or three times a day horses kick the
bricks away and trample down the
bread but the boy sets up his free
eating-room again, and his patrons
come at once. 1t is pretty thing to
see"

INSECTS IN WNTER.-Spiders usually
spend the winter in the egg state, the
mother enclosing the ball of eggs In a
beautiful silken bag, and hiding it
wherever she can get chance. Many
insects spend the winter in the larya or
wolm state. Still others spend the
winter in the chrysalis state. These
chrysalides may be seen attached to
the twigs of bushes, or under the bark
of trees, or imbedded in decayed wood,
while the change goes on which trans
forms the crawling worm into the beau
tiful winged creature.
Still others, in their perfect state,

GEORGES RRAsoS.-The pupils of
Mr.. Jones school had all, save one,
entered the school and taken their
seats, when George Hardy, the tardy
scholar for once, came hurrying in,
much out of breath.
"Why, George, said his teacher,
show is this l saw you, as | supposed,
on your way to school when l started
from home. hope you have not been
away at play when you should have
been at school"
"No, sir l have not played any this
morning thought could run home
and be back before school commenced.
"But why did you wish to return
home? Did you forget anything p
''No, Sill"
"What did you go back for, then p
eff you will please excuse me, sir, i
had rather not tell"
81 hardly think / can excuse you,
George; you are very late, and you
know 1 have a right to demand suili-
cient reason for il"
George stepped up, and, placing his
lips close to his teachers ear, whis-
pered, 81 met boy who was without
shoes, and as had pair which l had
outgrown, L went home to get them for
him."
"Was that the reason q asked the
teacher, looking upon the blushing boy
with love and appreciation.
"Yes, sir"
"Why, then, did you not wish to tell
me?"
Because, sir, my mother says when
1 give anything in charity, L must do ii
privately, lest 1 should receive praise
of men, and become vain and proud.

Four SERVANTS OF SATAN. - Dear
young friends, Satan has great many
servants, and they are very busy, run
ming about doing all the harm they can.
1 know four of them, and some OF the
mischief which they have done.
They appear sociable, easy, good
natured, and not too much IN a hurry.
They seem to wait your own time, and
entice You when you least expect it.
so, we want you to enjoy yourselves,
they say, "and not to be so particular ;"
and the arguments they use are very
taking; at least 1 must think so, since
so many of the young listen to them,
and are led away by them.
And all, l believe, because they did
not know, in the first place, who was
speaking to them. They were deceived.
They did not see it was Satan's uniform
they had on. Do You ask for names
Here they are:
"7here is no danger" That is one.
"Only this once" There is another.
"E'UerybOdy does So" is the third
and "By and Jy," is the fourth.
If you are tempted to leave Gods
house, and break the Sabbath day to go
for sail or a ride, and "Oniy this
once" or "EUerybOdy does So" whis-
pers at your elbow, know it is false.
The great evil of one sin is, that you
bring your heart and conscience into
such a state that you will be likely to
go on SHINING for there is not half SC
much to stop you as there was to pre-.
vent you from setting out at first. Hold
no parleys with "Oniy this once" OF
.Erery6Ody docs So" Listen to then
a.lgerous counsels, no, not for a mo.
ment.

It hath been said, for all who die
THERE'S tear;
Some pining, bleeding heart to sigh
Der every bier;
But in that hour of pain and dread
Who will draw near
Around my humble couch and shed
One farewell tear?
Who'd watch life's last departing ray
In deep despair,
And soothe my spirit on it's way
With holy prayer2
What mourners round my bier will
come,
In weeds OF wee.
And follow me to NY long home,
Solemn and slow2
When lying on my clayey bed,
In icy sleep,
Who there, by pure affection led,
Will come and Tesp;
BY the pale moon implant the rose
Upon my breast,
And bid it cheer my dark repose,
My lowly rest?
Gould I but know when I am sleeping
Low in the ground,
One faithful heart would there be
keeping
Watch all night zcund,
As it some gem lay shrined beneath
That souls calm gloom,
Twould mitigate the pangs of death
And light the tomb.
Yes! in that hour, If T could feel
From halls Of glee,
And beauty's presence one would steal
In secrecy,
And come and sit and weep by me
In nights deep noon,
Obi I wonld ask of memory
No other boon.
But, ahl a lonelier fate is mine,
A deeper woe;
From all I love in youths sweet time
Hoon must go:
Drawn round me my pale robes of
white,
In dark spot,
To sleep through deaths long, dream
less night,
