How Authors Live.

Hyppocrates, in his celebrated "Frea-
tise on Diet" endeavored to prove that all
men were born with equal capacity, and
the difference in after life in their mental
power was owing to the food which they
ate.
A respectable physician asserts that he
can estimate the calibre OF mans mind
by the state of his stomach.
1t is stated that gentleman treated Dr..
johnson to new honey and cream, OF which
he ate so much his entertainer became
alarmed. This celebrated man had al
ways voracious attachment to Q leg Of
mutton. cat my aunt Ford's," said he.
II ate so much of boiled leg of mutton
that she used to talk of it."
Joseph Addison was very timid in the
presence of those whom he deemed his SUI
periors, and strove to bring his courage
up by the use of wire, and finally became
very intemperate, which drew from DR..
johnson these memorable remarks: AIN
the bottle discomfort seeks for comfort,
|oowardice for courage, and bashfalness
for confidence"
Charles Lamb was excessively partial to
roast pig, and wrote an essay in Praise OF
it.
Ariosto was so attached to frugal way
of living that he said Of himself he should
have lived ''when acorns were the food OF
mankind"
Shelley had an inefable contempt for all
|sensualities of the table, and, like Newton,
used to inquire if he had dined.
To counteract tendency to corpulency,
Lord Byron at one period dined four days
in week on fish and vegetables.
Benjamin Franklin contemplated prac-
tising abstinence from animal food. 81
hesitated some time, he says, between
principle and inclination, till at last reco' :
Letting that when cod had been opened
some small fish were found in it, said to
myself if you eat one another / see no rea-
son why we may not eat you. How con-
yenient it is to be rational animal that
know how to invent plausible pretext
for whatever it has an mediation to do -
Milton used to take pipe and tobacco
and glass of water just before going to
bed.
Sir Walter Scott, in whose works COM
lplete code for life and conduct might be
found. said greatness of any kind has no
greater foe than a habit of drinking
(which was only another wey of putting
Switt's words when he said of temperance,
| ut is necessary virtue for great men,
since it is the parent of that ease and lib
erty which are essential for the improve
ment Of the mind, and which philosophy
allows to be the greatest felicity of life

Grubs in Horses.

A Writer says that he has never known
but one remedy for grubs in horses worth
publishing and that one is sage tea. He
says as soon as one is satisfied that his
horse has the grubs, (Which are sure to
kilD he should make a strong sage tea.
drcnch the animal once or twice, or until a
change is effected. But ''as an ounce OF
preventive is worth pound of cure it
would be well to give the horse cupful
of pulverized sage leaves in some meal or
bran once or twice week.

aEWhen Denver husband misses the
wife of his bosom at meal time nowadays,
he don't yell for the police, or rush around

they have seen Mary Jane. He just walks

into the door and sings out: MARY Jane.

The other day an adipose citizen
strolled up to couple of acquaintances
who were talking on the corner, and one
of them saluted him with, "Why, you are

Feminine CareIeSsneSs.

A FUNNY incident occurred in the gas
office the other day. The wife of a
prominent member Of the State Senate
entered to pay her taxes, carrying her
porte-monnaie. as women usually do, in
her right hand. Having occasion to write
her signature, she changed the pocket
book to her left hand, then started to go
out. Noticing that her right hand was
empty, she missed her pocket-book, and,
turning to a rough-looking individual
who had been standing by meantime, ex-
claimed angrily:
CPL thank you for my pocket-book
sir"
Two or three of the book-keepers
rushed out, expecting to see the man try
to escape, but he stood still and calmly
answered:
"I haven't it, ma'am."
"You certainly have; laid it down a
moment ago here, and you Are the only
person who could have taken it"
81 beg your pardon, ma'am," said the
stranger, "but am no thief. | have not
got your pocket-book."
CPL have you arrested and searched y
cried the irate lady.
AS you please" responded the man.
And as the madam tried to open the
door to call policeman she discovered
her purse in her left hand The stranger
smilingly listened to profuse and pro-
longed apology-CA5cago Inter- Oeeara.

part of the houses. Soon after the water
had returned to the river change in the
weather occurred and it became intense
ly cold, and everything froze hard and
fast, many of the houses around which
pools of water remained being complete
ly surrounded by small lakes of ice this
morning. The house of Mr.. Michael
Hogan, two-story frame building, was
moved forward about twenty feet, the
site being occupied by mound of ice
blocks fully twenty feet high. At mid
day Mr.. Hogan was busily engaged in
tunneling into the heart of this mass, in
order to get at his coal pile, which, he
said, he knew ought to be somewhere in
side. The house next to his, which was
unOcCupied, also of two stories, was
moved forward twenty-five feet by the
same pack. Neither Of these buildings
was injured otherwise except by the
water which entered the lower stories.
The barns and outhouses of Mr.. Carlow,
a veterinary surgeon, were completely de-
stroyed, the walls being crushed to-
Sether and thrown down by the
ice. His dwelling, new house
built only year ago, received
a singular injury, the foundation wall,
which is of solid masonry, being crushed
IN for space of several feet by large
block of ice, and the cellar, used as a
kitchen, was literally packed full of
FRAGMENTS of ice and snow Almost all
the fences and shrubbery were swept
away, and the ruined houses, broken
trees and outhouses, all mixed in mex
tricable confusion, present bewilder-
ing scene of devastation. The lower por-
ton of the town, known as The Flats"
was also submerged, and is now COW
cred with an immense mass of ice,
varying from three to twenty-five feet in
height Very few buildings of any con-
sequence were in this part of the town
but that were all more or less injured.
One house was thrown on it's side and
carried some fifty feet from its original
site.
Along the banks of the river the larg-
est mounds of ice are to be found, in
some places reaching the height of forty
feet, massed and piled up in the most
fantastic shapes. In one place some of
the young men of the town found a large
cave some fifty feet long and twenty five
feet under the surface. They describe
it as being very beautiful, being all of
clear ice

pay 100000 to have it stopped. Wit
ness had repeatedly seen Mr.. Tilton and
Mrs. Woodruff sitting together, with
their arms around each other. Richard
Adams Gray and Lucy Ann Giles (both
colored), formerly employed by Mrs.
Woodruff, also testified to having
seen Mr.. Tilton often at the Woodruff
house, and 10 having witnessed repeat
ed demonstrations of affection be-
tween Mr.. T. and Mrs. W. Gray re-
membered conversation between Mr.,
T. and Mrs. W. about getting Mr.. Beech
er to preside at Mrs. WIS Steinway Hall
meeting in 1871; Mrs W. said he had
better preside or she would make it very
hot for him, and Mr.. T. said he (Beecher)
would have to and would preside.

No Old Ladies i'm France.

A PARIS correspondent says: "A fall
lacy which I hear discussed is that good
manners are disappearing because men
now neglect old ladies' This is indeed
most absurd theory. First of all there
are no old ladies left. 1t is only the day
after their decease that we learn of the
existence Of old ladies in France. Up to
the moment when they are stretched
upon their last bed they maintain vigor-
Gus battle against old age. They sim
per, they cover their shoulders with pow
der, paint their veins blue and their eye
brows black, dye their hair, fill their
mouths with ivory, color their lips, car
mine their nails and ears pink; while
there is lace on their corsages, diamonds
on their necks, tulle and flowers on their
petticoats; their figures are mechanical
ly adjusted, their feet are inclosed in
vises and their hands in prisons of
kid; they fill up their wrinkles with
enamel and allow whole world of false
hair and gauze to fall over their necks-
in short they deceive themselves so much
with this artificial attire that when they
look at themselves in a glass without
thinking they do not know themselves
and courtesy after the ceremonious fash
ion of visit 1t is impossible then to
be deferential to old ladies in society,
because they no longer exist. The only
old ladies to be met are those whom one
sees kneeling in the churches of the Eau
bourg On confession nights, when they
weep for the sins Of others, or coming out
at night from the porch of St. Clothide,
where they have had their first nap
while pretending to listen to a preacher"
