The Eject OF q Lottery Prize.

The individual who has been prOfanely
himself in Philadelphia and
New York to be the Son of God, is per-
son named John C. Daudt, of RidgetOn,
N. j. A Times reporter discovered that
he was formerly q cutter In Charles &.
Grosscup's tailoring establishment, on
Laurel street, above Commerce, in that
city. The investigation revealed some in
teresting phases in Daudt's life. Up to
two years ago he was quiet, industrious
tailor, in the establishment mentioned, his
earnings having been invested in the
Havana lottery for number of years
previously. In 1875 Daudt drew prize in
the Havana lottery amounting to SIC, 900
in gold. His success turned his head.
During one of his lucid intervals he mar
ried his boarding louise mistress, nOtwith-
standing he had q wife and even children
residing in Bethlehem, Pa, to whom he
had regularly sent remittances. Shortly
after the new matrimonial alliance, Mr..
Daudt believed that he was called upon to
evangelize the world, and finally claimed
to be the Son Of God, and went around
through the community protesting to save
sinners and heal all manner of diseases.
Daudta was axEested some time since in

surd to be entertained in an enlightened
age, since the outer Dir does not reach the
stomach, and would do no special harm
If admitted. If "wind" Is il the stom-
.ach, 1t Is evolved by the rotting Of the un-
'digested food forced In the st0mach-the
product of fermentation, a., seen in the
Over.raised dough. To keep the stomach
free from !" wind, !" fast when food is
loathed; remembering that If the popular
idea 10 correct, that food must be taken to
keep the air out Of the stomach, constant
eating is required, filling i as fast as it is
emptied. Again, the sick win gain
strength by fasting more rapidly than
by eating without q relish and an appe-
tite, since forcing always tends to retard
the return of the appetite. Indeed, most
of the popular ideas, especially among
the ignorant, are "highly apreposterous
and totally absurd"
1t is safe, therefore, in the first or acute
forms of disease, to abstain from food.
Drink freely of water-at least in the alb
sence Of an appetite. and when thirsty
and to use only the simplest kind of food,
easy of digestion, while improving: TAX
ing the more substantial kinds after being
able to labor-all at regular peri0ds.J.
