People should Ea, More Fruit.

The Herald OF Health in its current number
has an article on /" Fruit and Food" which, the
writer thinks is far too sparingly used by every
body. He takes vons Of the principal hotels In
New York, and compares in figures the snount
Of heeh snd fruit consumed every week. Thus
the amount Of animal food consumed at the four
principal hotels, the Fifth Avenue, Grand Gen.
tral, st. Nicholas and Windsor is put down in
round numbers at about 10000 pounds per
week.
These are the average weekly figures, and in
clude fish, flesh, fowl, game and oysters. The
amount Of fruit is given Rs 800 pounds with GAS
gallons Of canned fruit. The writer thinks the
great disparity in the amount Of frnit and flesh
eaten is one of the causes Of our universal
physical Decentralization.

Captain George W. Cheek, superiu-
tendent of the Memphis and Vicksburg
Line, started in 1868 with the Geo. W.
Cheek; in 80 and 70 he built the A. J..
White, and last year added the famous
steamer Illinois, placing her in the trade
last April at q dull season and running
all summer The line has built up a
large trade for Memphis and deserves
the unanimous support of our merchants.
1t is emphatically a Memphis institution
and a very right arm to our trade. Geo.
W, Cheek is about the only man in the
world who would have dared to put an.
other boat in the trade during the dull
summer months. Memphis owes him a
lasting debt of gratitude. His boats are
superb passenger steamers, calculated
also to carry heavy freights. To the
large passenger and freight traffic thus
built up will be added a tremendous and
well earned business this fall and winter.
