CURI0sITIEs OF EATING.

An old beau, formerly we'll known in
Washington City, was accustomed to eat
but one meal in q hours +; if alter this he
had to 90 10 II purity and take a second
dinner, he ate nuthng all the next day.
He died mt the age of 20.
A lady Of culture. refinement and un-
usual pnwers of observation and com
pnrson, became widow. Reduced from
atIluence to poverty. with large family
of small children dependent on her man
ual labor for daily food, she made vali.
ETY. of experiments to ascertain what ar-
ticles could be furnished for the least
money, and would at the same time "go
the lurihe.t," by keeping her children
/ longest from crying for something TO eat.
/ She soon discovered that when they ate
bucswheat cakes and mo'a.se, they were
quiet Tor n longer time than after eating
any other Kind Of food.
A distinguished judge of the United
States Court observed that when he took
5urkwhcat cakes for brcakfa,t, he could
lit on the bench all day without being
uncomformbly hungry; if the cakes
were omitted, he felt Obliged to take II
lunch about noon Buckwhrnt cakes are

During the Irish famue, when many
died ol hunger, the poor we're often found
spending their last shilling for tea, tobac-
go and spirits. / has also been observed
in New York, hy those connected with

WANTED ARSENIC.

As a World reporter was chatting with
a druggist on Ninth Avenue, the CONVEX
sation was interrupted by the entrance of
a rather pretty young girl, with very
pale face, plainly and neatly dressed. -
She hesitated at the door for few mo-
ments, then came in with rush rs if de
sirous Of entering ere she could change
her mind. Going to the dark end Of the
shop, she waited for the druggist to move
toward her, and then carried on with him
an animated conversation in Whispers

she thrust into her bosom. Then She
hurried out, still averting her face, which
was curiously red and pale by turns.
