The Abuse of Appetita.

The appetite is one Of the least APP
preciated of natures gifts to man. 1t
is generally regarded in this work-a-day
world as something to be either starved
or sIuffed-to be got rid Of at all events
with the least Inconvenience possible.
There are people who are not only glad
that they have been endowed with
sound, healthy bodies, for which nature
demands refreshment and replenish-
ment, but they are actually ashamed to
have it known that they are sustained
in the usual manner. The reason Of
this we are at a loss to conceive.
Everybody admires beauty, and there
can be no true beauty without good
health and no good health without a
regular and unvarying appetite. We
are disinclined to let appetite take any
responsibility on itself. If we happen
to consider il too delicate we try to
coax it, perhaps stimulate it with highly
seasoned or fancifully,prepared food.
There are times when this may seem
necessary, as in the case OF a person so
debilitated rs to depend for daily
p'ioASoh oh WhuU NC Cuto. DuO uouuiAJ
The caioling process is q mistake. II
the appetite of an individual in fair
bodily condition be occasionally slen-
der, it is no cause for alarm, and it
should be allowed to regulate itself.
1t may safely be considered natures
protest against some transgression, and
it is wise not to attempt coercion.
At certain seasons, as in the spring
and simmer, the appetite of even the
robust is apt to fail, and the relish for
meats aud heavy food to wane. This is
all right enough, for animal diet in
warm weather heats the blood, tends to
headaches and is generally unwhole-
some, unless sparingly used. On the
other hand, fresh vegetables, berries,
fruit and bread are cooling, corrective,
and what the palate most Graves. Don't
be afraid to go without meat O month
or so /; and if you like, live purely on
a vegetable regimen. We will warrant
that you will lose no more strength
than is common to the time, and that
You will not suffer from protracted
heat as when dining on the regulation

Cuban Affairs.

The Havana correspondent OF the
New York Times, in a recent letIer to
that paper, says:
The present state OF affairs IN the
island, the raid of the insurgents IN the
Cinco Villas, and their destruction OF
valuable plantations unmolestcd and
unhindered by the Spanish forces the
very unsatisfactory state of the finan-
oial question. the efforts of the govern
uent to enforce the payment OF taxes
due on previous DEGREES; the knowl'
edge that Captain General Concha's
resignation has been accepted by the
home government, and that Valmaseda
is to replace him, and the dispiriting
accounts of the military operations OF
the Spaniards against the insurgents,
who are at present so actively engaged
in this half of the island-all these
circumstances give rise to n most alarm
ing and deplorable state of things.
The Voz do Cuba shows the unsatis-
factory outlook in the following plain
language:
Gold and exchange have risen, but
this time we can to a certain degree eX-
plain the rise. The call to arms of
10000 men in Spain, rs announced to
us by the associated press telegram,
cannot, however, be considered salts
factory. And it is difficult to arrive at
Il favorable solution in Cuba, when the
chief authority changes every six months,
and above oil when these changes obey
the oscillations of politics on the
Peninsula. The intelligence, also
furnished by the associated press, that
5000 men would be sent to this island,
cannot either be considered satisfactory
until we receive full particulars. How
and under what circumstances Will
those 10, 600 men come? Will they be
drawn from the ranks of the army,
taken from the 10000 mel called to
arms? OF the two sources, the latter
appears most likely to be chosen, al
though a part may come from the ranks
of the army. Again, how and when
will these $4,000 men reach Cuba?
Unless 5000 are sent at once, to arrive
at the latest by the last OF next
and take advantage of the
Of April and May, the last OF
what is known here as the winter cam
it is like doing nothing at all.
Other accounts in the same strain
ollow. The Official Gazette says:
"The column commanded by the
hief in command of the Cumanayra
.ua Zone, composed of forces of foot
r~tillery, and part of the Cardenas bat
alion, Cumanayragua Guerrilla, Guines
avalry, volunteers from Sagus, and
jDmarrones Guerrila, in all a force OF
IS men, encountered the insurgents
about the I'd inst, at tho Quinones
attic farm, near MANAGES. The rebels F.,

Mourning for the Emperor of China.

{ The emperor of China being dead
says the London Weekly Dispatch, al
his subjects, according to their rank,
will be required to mourn his decease.
On the proclamation of the governor OF
the province, the mandarins under him
not only put on mourning, but paint
out the decorations on their house walls,
and wrap their sedan chairs in black
cloth. The common people have to
shave their heads, and also perform
certain ceremonies prescribed especial
! lv for them but as for the %mandarins
and local gentry, on a second proclama.
zion from the governor Of the province,
they meet together on certain appointed
| days, in q particular temple, to cliff
mp their lamentations" for the departed
monarch whom most of these mourners
never onco beheld. The mode of their
proceedings is III this wise: The man.
darins, gentry, and others entitled to
take part in the ceremonial, having
mustered inside the temple, slowly and
silently take up each one the position
prescribed for him, according to his
rank, on a raised platform previously
prepared. This done, q professor of
ceremony appears upon the scene. Ev-
erything being ready, the professor,
amid profound silence, calls out in a
commanding tone, "Kneel DOWN. In
mediately one hundred individuals,
more or less. being the highest in rank
and power in the province, simultane-
ously fall prostrate. Then the next
order comes KNOCK your heads once
on the ground" which the company
immediately do. Again and again
the foreheads tap the floor, and yet Il
third time they are required to kneel
and knock. The professor, while they
are still on their hands and knees, now
commands them to "begin their lamen-
t%atiOns;" whereupon these adult, ration
al beings commence to moan and weep
in a wimpering, subdued tone OF voice.
This having been kept mp for q minute
or 80, all are ordered to stop their
crying" "rise up" and dispense from
their Places which, by this time, they
seem not unwilling to do. Thus ends
the ceremony OF "threo bowings and
nine knockings," The funniest thing
connected with the whole business is,
that until the cmperor's death has been
officially announced from Pekin, nobody
S supposed to be sorry. A steamer
commonly brings the news down to a
province long before the governors
,ficial despatch arrives, and thus,
the emperor's decease is perfect
y well known, everybody surprisingly
commands his feelings, and goes about
his business as usual. 1t is only when
governor sends forth his public n
nouncement that the land is ~convulsed
with sudden and universal sorrow. !

Farmers Wives,

Avery sensible remark it was, that was
made lately by an old man, that manya
farmers wife is literally worked todeatll
in an inadvertent manner from want of
reflection or consideration on the part
OF her husband. None can understand
better than he, III blowing or sowing, or
harvest time, that if n horse gets sick,
or u II away, or is stolen, another must
be procured that very day, or the work
will inevitably go behlndhand. He
does not carry tho same practical sense
into the kitchen, when the hired help
leaves without warning, or becomes
disabled, although he knows as well as
any man can know that "the hands"
will expect their meals with the same
regularity, with the same p%romptness,
aud with the same proper mode of pre-.
paration (; but, instead of procuring
other "help" on the instant, he allows
himself to be persuaded, if the "help'
is sick, she will get well in day or two,
or in Il week at farthest, and that it is
hardly worth while to get another for so
short n time.
Meanwhile the wife is expected not
only to attend to her ordinary duties rs
usual, but somehow or other to spare
the time to do all that tho cook or
washerwoman was accustomed To do,
that il, to do tho full work of Two per
sons, each of whom had already quite
AS much labor to perform a. she could
