HE BREAD We EAT.-A valuable article
lately appeared in the Boston Journal of
Chemistry upon Wheat and the Deficien-
cies of White Flour as Nerve Food. -
which has been supplemented by an i'm
portant lecture by the author (Dr. Cutler.
OF Massachusetts, upon the general subject.
with special view to answering the CUES
ton, " Is -four (white) our proper food?'
Dr. Cutler has for long time been engaged
IN extended researches upon the "effects
OF four-eating upon the human race"
Among the points made in his lecture is
that Hour is the only impoverished food
used by mankind-impoverished by the
withdrawal of the documentary portion of
the wheat, leaving the internal starchy or
white portion. How then, it is asked, can
Hour be made nutritious with about three
elements, when it should contain fifteen
elements in order to properly nourish and
sustain the human body? 1t is related in
klrke Pagefs physiology" that dogs
fed by Magendie on -four bread died in
forty days; other dogs, fed on bread from
whole wheat meal or -four hourished and
throve. The three-fourths impoverishment
OF the mineral ingredients proved fatal to
the first. The question is asked why
should not mankind suffer in the same
manner from living on impoverished food?
Ihe.faet that wheat as an article of food,
combined with fresh outdoor air life. is
capable of producing and sustaining the
highest type of physical manhood the
world ever saw is illustrated by the history
OF the Roman empire in the time of Julius
Cesar, which was built up and maintained
by soldiers whose main article of food was
wheat. DR.. Cutler also holds that it is
probable that the present prevalence of
deeaying teeth, and that premature gray
ness or badness are partly due to the ex-
elusive and universal use of white -four.
Hair contains ten per cent. of sulpheroid,
but there IS no sulphur or sulphuric acid in
Hour. A food, to be food, must contain in
proper quantities all ingredients found in
the tissues, hair, teeth, &c. In addition to
this, white -four for half century has been
regarded as one cause of constipation. 1t
has been proved that whole wheat meal
regulates the bowels by giving the system
nerve food to '.run," so TO speak, the diges-
tive functions. While wheat contains, in
normal proportions, every element which
belongs to the tissues and organs, white
Hour made from wheat is a substance
weakened, deteriorated and impoverished,
and history shows that people eating it are
more subject to tissue-wasting disease icon
sumption, &c.l than ever before.-Balt;nOre

A TENACIOUS TOOTH.

A few days ago, says the Dayton co.
Journal, buggy containing young
man and woman, apparently from the
country, drove up before dentists
Office in the city. They alighted, and
few minutes later, with evident trepld--
a5ion in their manner, appeared before
the dentists. The young man, whose
countenance was picture of doleful So
lemnity, stood in the back ground, while
his companion inquired the dangers IN
Cured, the pain, and the price OF
extracting a tooth. The dentist as
sured them that all danger was imaggin-
airy, the pain transient, SO brief indeed
as to be really pleasant, and he illus
trated the case by an incident, in which
person, after having one tooth extract
ed, was SO pleased with the sensation
that it was with difficulty he could
be persuaded from the desire to have
every tooth in his head pulled, though
all were perfectly sound and as for price
it was a mere song. Encouraged by
these prospects, the features of the pa
tient relaxed little, and he stepped
lightly to the chair. The lady entered
the waiting-room to remain while the
operation was being performed. The
dentist fastened his instrument to the
offending member with tie grip of
wise. The patient groaned, and his fin
gers chung like the claws of q cat to the
chair. The operator shook the forceps,
but the tooth did not jar hairs space
in its socket, but the mans feet struck
out spasmodically, and louder groan
came from the !debths of his throat.
Bracing himself for another effort, the
dentist took fresh clinch, and, throw
ing his strength in the vice anew, gave
it determined twist. The nerves of
the man seemed to swell and palpitate
and the hair to curl close to the roots,
the sweat broke out from the pores of
his brow, and with howl of agony his
laws shut down on the hand that was in
his mouth. The lady heard the cry,
and with shrek of sympathy flung
herself between the two, entwining Ter
arms about the operator. His
His position, to say the least, was un-
pleasant. The tooth remained as firm
as thought nodded in the jaw, and the
remaining teeth were imbedded in his
bend; the man was grooming and the
woman screaming and preventing any
action on his part. Finally, by means
of threats and protestation, he succeeded
in relinquishing his hand. The patient
left the chair swearing the tooth should
not be pulled, and the two entered their
buggy and drove away, vowing den
fist should never get either of them in
his grasp again. The dentist wants no
more customers of this variety.

SEE MEANS to BE LOVED for HER
SELF ALoNE.-There is young lady in
yorktown who has been engaged five
times since New Years, but who is now
free once more. She is an heiress In a
small way, her father having snug sum
and owning considerable property in the
Eighth Ward Her srutors have always
been prosperous young men, as she will
not have any other wooers save those
who can show signs of capability and
worldly wealth. But she has an ambi-
ton to be loved for herself alone, and
puts all her intended husbands to the
test in this wise: She takes an oppor-
tunity of coniding to them with injunct
ions of perfect secrecy, that her father
lost great deal of money, and has been
obliged to mortgage his dwelling house
and furniture. The latter, however,
she represents, is not mortgaged for
more than one-half its worth; so she
asks, as favor, that her intended adj
vance sum of money on second chat
tel mortgage. The effect of this ruse, SO
far, has been that each young man has
promised to advance the money, and
afterward has broken his promise and
acted in such manner that fine engage
ment is broken also.

found some one there, and must have
had some words. Those watching him
saw his big sa.ohel come out first, then
he slid out after it, hair on end and chin
oil bruised up, and as he reached the
curbstone his small satchel hit him on
