A BvWaV to Health,

"Nobody ever repeated of eating too little"
was the sage remark of an old gentleman on
the verge Of ninety, next to whom the writer
had the pleasure of sitting at dinner the
other night. The host was pressing him to
take more, and urging him in the usual
phrase, "Why. you have eaten scarcely any,
'thingw Now it is to be assumed that the old
gentleman's words indicated one of the by
ways to good health along which he had trav-
eled through his long life, and to which he
owed his present remarkably hearty condi-
ton; so it was suggested to him interroga-
lively that he had always been small
feeder.
Eyes," he answered, " ever since was
two or three and twenty; up to that time
was weakly fellow enough, and used to
make the great mistake of trying to eat and
drink as much as I could, in the hope of be-
coming strong. All my friends and the doc
tors backed me up in my error; but FORUM
ately found it out in time, and knocked
half my usual amount OF food and stimu-
lants gave up the idea of making myself
strong and merely strove to make myself well,
and so I was contented with eating just as
much as could digest and no more.
OF course it took little time and expert
ence to discover the precise limits; l could
not adopt the golden rule ct always leaving
off with an appetite, because never began
with one, but by persistently erring on the
right sight I got hold of one of the great
secrets Of life-the secret of knowing when
one has had enough, and after year or two l
became so much better that used to find
myself keenly ready to eat at meal-time, and
by degrees actually acquired an appetite.
Then, once found, never destroyed it, but
always determinately rose with feeling that
I should like to eat more. Naturally the
temptation for while grew greater as my
digestion grew stronger; but was firm;
did not behave ungratefally to my stomach,
and Immediately presume upon its increased
powers by overlooking it; I did not live to
eat, but only ate to live; and behold me.
have no need to be very particular as to
what eat, even at my time of life; have
only to be careful not to eat too much" Here
indeed is the secret of great deal that is
amiss with many of us. We are in the habit
of eating too much, more than our digestive
powers can tackle, and that which is not as
simulated more or less poisons. The system
becomes overcharged, and gives any latent
tendency to disease within us every facility
for developing itself The question is, not
SO much what to eat as what quantity to eat
and nothing but sharp lookout kept by
ourselves upon ourselves can give Us the
answer. -T insleys Magazine.

STORIES OF THE WAR.

It will be remembered that our brave and
dashipg Gen. Phil Kearny was shot by some
of the Confederate infantry just at twilight Of
the evening following the battle of Chantilly,
Virginia, while he was accommodating the
enemy's position in person. The details Of
the death of Gen. Alfred Mouton, prominent
Confederate leader in Louisiana, furnish an
exact parallel to that of Kearny. Mouton
commanded division at the battle Of Sabine
Gross Roads, and was present with it all day.
The battle closed with an unsuccessful
attempt of the enemy to break our right flank.
The charge Was repelled by first division Of
the Nineteenth Corps, and tho discomfture Of
the attack ct this point called forth tremen-
dous cheers from our line. These cheers, it
would ssem, we're mistaken by Gen. Mouton
for the expected yells of victory of his own
troops, and he quickly approached the I'M
broken line of our first division, with his
staff and escort. What followed will be best
told in the language of comrade who saw
it all:
at was nearly dark. Our line remained
quiet awaiting further developments Of the
enemy. Soon party Of horsemen were seen
approaching slowly over the open field. The
faint light Of departing day, and the clouds Of
smoke which were settling around Us rendered
it impossible for us to distinguish friend from
foe. Capt Mathews, Assistant Adjutant Cen
eral Of the brigade, thought the party was our
own. which had been sent to reconoitre the
position of the enemy. Their nearer approach
soon disabused him of this opinion, and he
directed them to halt 'Federals, by -!
