Sleep Following Supper.

discussed the question recently with
an able physician, who said to me:
There is nothing more absurd than to
pretend tbs unhealthy to sleep immediate
ly after the days last meal. Is not man
an animal? Do not animals, without ex-
ceptiou, sleep Immediately after supper?
Do we not feel like sleeping after each
days last meal? And is it not by an eff
fort we shake off sleep? Evidently the
body yearns for sleep. Exercise immedi-
ately after each meal is pernicious. Rest
is healthful. What rest can compare with
sleep, which reposes the mind, the lungs,
even the heart? See the peasants. No
persons enjoy better health than they do.
| Supper is the best meal of their day. No
bed Look at the actors. There was Ru-
bini, He dined at 3, went to his dressing
room in the Italian opera house, and slept
till the theatre opened its doors. At mid
night he sUpped heartily, and straight to
bed he went. He died of sheer old age.
You know Mons Thiers's habit? The nom
ent dinner ends he stretches himself out
| to sleep, and sleeps an hour. The truth
is, if you look around there will be found
that the great majority of men go to sleep
Immediately after making their best meal.
You certainly never saw anywhere in your
world healthier, stronger women than
those of the great markets. What is their
rule of life? Dinner and to bed. Take
another, the very opposite class, astrono-
ners. They keep late hours. Their best
meals are taken when the stars say, good
night. Then they 20 to sleep. Did you
ever hear of an astronomer dying under &
hundred? The majority of servants and
mechanics go to sleep Immediately after
, taking their best meal. They are right
They obey Natures voice, which alway:

from q prominent gentleman and restden of Gin

to the newspaper publishers throughout the
United States:
NEW YORK. Oct II, 1870
DR.. DADwAY.-Dear Sir:-I avn induced by
sense of duty to the suffering make brief state
ment OF the working of your medicine myself
For several years | had been affected wi some
trouble in the bladder and urinary organe which
some twelve months ago eliminated in a most ter
ribly affecting disease. which the physicians all
said was prostate structure in the uretha, as also
Inflammation OF the kidneys and bladder, and
gave 1t as their opinion that my age-T3 years
would prevent my getting radically cured
had tried number of physicians, and had taken
q large quantity Of medicine, both allopathic and
homeopathic; but had got no relief. 1 had read
of astonishing cures having been made by your re-
medies, and some four months ago read notice in
the Philadelphi4 Saturday Evening Post of cure
having been effected person who had long
been suffering as had been. 1 went right off and
got some of each-your Sarsapa-iilian Sesolvent,
Ready Relief, and Regulating Pllls-and commen
ced taking them, In three days was greatly re-
lieved, and now feel as wella ever.

"Come and See Me-

Never take Come and see me" as a
phrase meant in earnest unless it is ac-
companied with a date. Such an invita-
ton amounts to nothing at all. If lady
or gentleman desires your company he or
she will appoint a time for your visit.
Call on me when you can make it conYen-
lent" Drop 10 as you are passing"
Make us visit whenever you have an
hour or two to spare" are social ambigui-
ties by which men and women of the world
understand that they are not expected to
do the thing requested. When people
wish to be cheaply polite there is nothing
like this kind of vagueness. The conpli-
mentary small change of society must
always be taken at large discount. 1t is
never worth its face or anything like it.
Yet it is convenient medium Of exchange,
and heavy debts Of gratitude that ought
to be requited in better coin are often
paid with it. People who have more
polish than principle use it lavishly-- plain,
blunt, honest men sparingly or not at ALL
Whoever makes a friendly visit to fash
ionahle house on the strength of a mere
Come and see me-" will very often find
that the family circle he has dropped into
by request is as ungenial as the Arctic
circle, and be will probably leave it with {
chilly feeling that will prevent him from
venturing into the same high latitude
again, But when whole souled man
whom you know to be your friend, grasp:
you vigorously by the hand and says

A Lover Shoots his Afnanced and stabs

ST. Louis, Oct 27.-This evening, DR..
Fogg, young man about q years old. and
an advertising agent for the Chronicle,
called at the house of Blackman, GIG
North Sixteenth street,to see her daughter
Pauliua, and after few moments conyer-
sation with the latter shot her with Der
ringer, the ball entering the left breast
three inches below the nipple, but
striking rib, glanced round aud inflicted
onlyIa severe flesh wound. Fogg then drew
a short dagger and stabbed himself twice
in the left breast inches below the nipple
and once in the left side under the arm
causing wounds which, no doubt, will prove
fatal. 1t that appears Fogg was engaged to
the girl, but she being only 6years of age,
her mother opposed the match and had for
hidden Fogg the house. This seems tc

Of two thirds of the cases Of Consumption. Many
persons COMPLAIN of dull pain in the side, con-
stpation, coated tongue pain in the shoulderblade
feelings OF drowiness and restlessness, the food
lying heavily on the stomach, accompanied with
acidity and belching up of wind.
These symptoms usually originated from disor-
dered condiio OF the stomach or a torpid liver.
Persons affected, VI they take one or two heavy
colds, and If the cOngh in these be suddenly
checked will find the stomach and liver clOgged,
remaining torpid, and inactive, and almost before
they are aware the lungs are mass Of sores, and
