MIND AND HEALTH.-The mental con-
dition has far more influence upon the
bodily health than is generally supposed.
It is no doubt true that ailments OF the
body cause depressing and morbid con-
di,ion of the mind; but it is no less true
that sorrowful and disagreeable emotions
produce disease in persons who, uninf1u
enced by them, would be in sound health
or, if disease is not produced. the func
tions are disordered. Not even physicians
always consider the Importance of thi
fact. Agreeable emotions set in motor
nervous currents, which stimulate blood
brain, and every part of the system into
healthful activity while grief, disappoint
ment of feeling. and brooding over pres,
ent sorrows or past mistakes, depress al
the vital forces. To be physically WELL
one must, in general, be happy. Inc re-
verse is not always true; one may be hap
py and cheerful, and yet be constant
sufferer in body.

THE GOLDEN SIDE.

There's many rest on the road of life,
If we would only stop to take it;
And many tone from the better land,
If the querulous heart would wake it,
To the sunny soul that is full Of hope,
And whose beautiful trust ne'er faileth,
The grass is green and the flowers are bright
Though the wintry storm prevalent.
Better to hope, though the clouds hang low
And to keep the eyes still lifted;
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through
When the ominous clouds are lifted,
There was never night without day,
Nor an evening without a morning;
And the darkest hour the proverb goes,
Is the hour before the dawning.
There's many gem in the path Of life,
Which we pass in idle pleasure,
That is richer far than the jeweled crown,
Or the miser's boarded treasure;
1t may be the love of a little child,
Or mothers prayer to Heaven,
Or only beggar's grateful thanks
For cup of water given.
Better to weave in the web Of life
A bright and golden filing,
And to do Gods will with a heavy heart,
And hands are swift and willing,
Than to snap the delicate silver threads
OF our curious lives asunder;
And then blame Heaven for the tangled ends,
And sit TO grieve and wonder.

Experience Of a Quail Eater.

ACiCWnu VIC PioSoue, c"y suo @As
lanta, Ca, Times, what Mr.. Thornton
says of his experience in his recent feat
Of eating thirty quails in as many con-
secutive days Says he:
Nature has never intended the quail
for constant food for man, and take
them in their natural state, that is. kill
them and cook them the same day,
without parboiling them, and using a
superfuity Of condiments and other de-
vices to destroy the game in them. and
no man can eat them for thirty days
consecutively. The children Of Israel
eat them for forty days, but they were
given them for food as plague set
upon them and they got putrid in their
mouths. In the third place they pro-
duced constipation and dryness and
burning at the stomach. This had to
be remedied by the use of alternatives,
and then not efectually
The FIRST day could have eaten
three or four birds, the second day the
same, and did eat dinner afterward.-
The third day they were still splendid
The fifth day one bird was as much as
I wanted for dinner. On the night Of
the 10th, while sleeping, had dream !

ridges, flying in every direction. One
had his bill stuck in the corner next to
the ceiling, futtering his wings as if be
wanted to fly through the wall In
another moment the delusion changed /;
I found myself in the top private box
at the opera house and it full Of wild
partridges. Presently l looked down
on the stage and saw quail flying at
my face. I lodged quickly, woke up,
and found my head hanging over the
side of the bad, and the weather cold
enough to freeze Just after eating
the twentieth ! got awful sick. It re-
quired strenuous efforts to avoid casting
up accounts. The twenty second was
splendid there was return Of good
feeling. But, after this they grew
worse and worse, until the twenty-sixth
which was almost fatal to the cause. =
The twenty-seventh was still worse,
but a Turkish bath, and an orange.
with a long nap afterwards, provided
sufficient barriers to keep up the fun
A slight improvement in the digestive
organs rendered the twenty eighth bird
the best to be relished of any. After l
got through all right.
Looking back at it now | don't see
how / succeeded. l had to attend to
work. and in going about the street,
no difference how sick or in what frame
Of mind was regarding the quails, an
average Of three hundred people day
would smilingly inquire: 'How's birds ?
DO you think you will succeed ? Now,
really. what is the natter?' And, not
withstanding the fact that one partridge
is not larger than a small-sized Irish
potato, many would coolly remark. I
believe l could cat two a day for forty
days This was pleasing intelligence,
but when man said he could eat
wild turkey day for thirty days, |
