When to Eat.

In paper read at domestic economy
congress at Birmingham, England, not
long ago, DR.. Wilson gave the following
hints on the proper times for eating for
different classes of workers: For the act
i've outdoor laborer and artisan, an
early breakfast before work, midday
dinner, with an interval of rest, and a
supper after the days work is over, have
long been proved by experience to be
the most conducive to health. For the
business man later breakfast, mid
day luncheon and a late dinner after
the days work is over, is the best ar
rangement. For literary men, who
write more in the evening than during
the day, an early dinner and light
supper will be found to be the most ad-
vantageous for steady work. Idlers to
enjoy life, if they possibly can, should
dine early if they intend to spend the
evening at theaters and the like, but if
they accept dinner invitations freely
they should be careful not to eat toe
much at the midday meal. The break
fast hour should be determined in great
measure bv the hour of rising; hut in
every case food should be partaken OF
before the material business Of the day
is commenced. Those who like to take
constitutional before breakfast
would find their appetite whetted and
their walk made all the more enjoyable
if they took little milk or cafe au lait
with bread or biscuit, before starting
Work done before breakfast is alway,
irksome and fatiguing, and on that ac
count is very likely to be badly done
The last meal should be sufficiently late
for the whole not to be absorbed before
retiring to rest. To person in health
three meals day ought to be quite
sufficient, and the practice of continu
ally taking something is sure to bring
on indigestion,

How to Cure Hydrophobia,

An amusing incident, says the Cleve-
land Voice, took place on suburban
Locust-street, in which an immense dog
and garden hose were the chief partici-
pants. The hose was directed upon the
dog while he was pursuing the even tenor
Of his way unmindful of the sorrows and
tin cans that beset his kind. He in
stantly turned and attacked the stream
of water. He went for it, he bit it
through and through, he mounted it, he
descended it, he climbed up it on one
side and down the other, he shook it, he
tackled it fore and aft right dogfully,
he took it on the fly, he ran with it to
first base, he ordered it up, he went il
alone, to the intense delight of a number
of lookers-on, but all to no purpose. He
only desisted when he had taken ON board
sufficient water to preclude all probabil
ity of hydrophobia for the next si1
weeks. he then skunk away, looking a
completely whipped as a dog knew

There's garden by river,
Where the grasses bend and qttiver
Z On the rivers reedy edges
Roses crimson all the hedges,
And leafy lane runs down
Through the meadows to a town,
In winding way. q {; IS - ~.
But where lies that garden blowing,
Where that river, Silly flowing,
And the lawn through meadows going,
/ shall never say.
Something fairer than a rose fta
In that unknown garden grows.
Something sweeter than the rhyme ri,t<i
Sung by birds in 1ilac-time;
Fairer than dream Of youth,
Thought all lost to care and ruth,
Something with heart like Msy;
Rose and lily all in one; 81
G-lden hsir caught from the sun;
Eyes with laughter overr1n.

Leaves the June winds chance for blowing.

Ingenuity Of Fraud.

We lind the following story in
Francis History of the Bank of Eng
land:" In 1880 a gentleman of emin-
ence was grieved at the contents of let
ter which he received from a cores
pondent at Hamburg, the post-mark OF
which it bore. From the statement il
contained, it appeared that a person,
most minutely described, had defranded
the writer, under extraordinary circum-
stances, of $4,000. The latter contin.
ued to say, information had beeen OBJ,
tanned that the defrauder-the dress and
person of whom it described-was occa.
sionally to be seen at the Dutch Walk
of the Royal Exchange. The object OF
the writer was to inform his correspond
ent to invite the party to dinner; and
by any moral force which could be used,
compel him to return the money; add
ing, that if he should be found amenable
to reason, and evince any signs of re-
pentance, he might be dismissed with a
friendly caution and s500, as he was a
near relative of the writer. As the
gentleman whose name it bore was a
profitable correspondent, the London
merchant kept keen watch on the
Dutch Walk, and was at last successful
in meeting and being introduced to the
cheat
The invitation to dine was accepted,
and the host, having previously given
notice to his family to quit the table
soon after dinner, acquainted the Wis.
itor with his knowledge of the fraud.
Alarm and horror were depicted in the
countenance of the young man, who
with tones apparently tremulous from
emotion, begged his disgrace might moi
be made public. To this the merchant
consented, provided the 93, 600 were re
turned. The visitor sighed deeply, bu
said that to return all was impossible
as he had unfortunately spent part O
the amount. The remainder, however
he proposed to yield instantly, and th,
notes were handed to the merchant
who, after dilating on the goodness o
the man he had robbed, concluded hi
moral lesson by handing a check fo
$500 as a proof of his benefcence. Th
following morning the gentleman wen
to the banker to deposit the none,
he had received, when, to his great SUI
prise, he was told that the notes wer
counterfeit. His next inquir .es wer
concerning the check, but that had bee
cashed shortly after the opening of tn
bank. He Immediately sent an expires
to his Hamburg correspondent, who re
piled that the letter was a forgery, an
that no fraud had been committed upo
him. The whole affair had been plotte
by gang, some of whom were on tn
Continent and some in England.

A Suspicious Trunk.

| The Philadelphia Times tells the story
of black, round-topped trunk, "check
No. $780," put on the Philadelphia &
Erie train at Cory. A smell as of a
decaying body caused the trunk to be
the aversion of the baggagemen on all
the connecting roads to which it was
transferred. The suspicious of train
hands and passengers were excited, and
the odor was SO disgusting that the
trunk was placed upon the front plat
form of the baggage car. Finally the
train and trunk arrived at Philadelphia
where telegraphic messages of fearful
import concerning it had been previ-
ously received. The conclusion of the
affair is given as follows:
Lockers on wondered what made the
passengers rush SO for the depot rooms,
as though a dinner bell was ringing.
The wind shifted around in their direc-
tion and then they didn't wonder.
Other trunks rolled out of the baggage
car as though set in motion by ma
chinery, but $50 was let severly alone
till the last. A long-faced baggage
porter said If he was worth eighty-nine
thousand dollars he wouldn't hesitate an
instant to stake it all on the wager that
the little black trunk held a human
body. The master of baggage came
around and told him to hush, as it
wouldn't do to excite the people till the
police came. The Chief of the district
police, with corps of powerful assistants,
came, each one with his mace and re-
volver. The little black trunk was re-
moved to the baggage room by the long
faced baggageman and another. Some
thing rolled inside as they carried it, the
long faced man said, and then he re-
newed his protest, in confidence that it
couldn't be other than human body.
Baggage Master Reynolds picked out a
key from long accumulating stock of
other keys, which fitted it. The trunk
was opened. The men fell back. A suit
of clothing, coat and trousers in good
order, lay on the top. A resolute hand
heaved them out. Beneath lay a lot of
soiled linen. The same resolute hand
drew it out. Something heavy was
wrapped inside it, and the whole COM
prised all that-was laft in tho -trurak-
The police came up, the chief ranging
his men each in place SO they could see
everything just as it happened and
swear to it when the time came. The
soiled linen was removed. A paper
wrapping still remained. With trem-
bling hands it was removed, and before
the eyes of everybody lay the hide of a
gray fox, with the head attached. Some
Philadelphia youth had been on gun
ming expedition up about Cory, and he
was bringing home portion of the
spoils as trophy to surprise his friends
If his pleasant anticipations were not
realized in regard to his friends, it is,
nevertheless, fact that others were sur
prised nightly. Laborers were engaged
right near the baggage rooms excavating
for water pipe.
Mike" said Mr.. Reynolds to one of
these same, throwing the fox skin, with
the fox's head attached, over to him,
"bury this one thousand feet Deep"
And Mike, standing in the pit up to
his shoulder, took his shovel and did SO.

Pen and Ink Sketch of a Queen.

Queen Elizabeth, in spite of the repre-
sentation of so many historians, was
heartless in the cruelty of her disposi-
ton, and ugly in person. In her sixty
first year she was thus described: " Her
face oblong, fair but wrinkled; her eyes
small, but black and pleasant; her nose
little hooked; her lips narrow, and
her teeth black; she wore false hair,
and that red; her bosom uncovered !"
yet was this Princess vain to the last
degree, and as susceptible to fattery as
any ever heard of, as the following in
stance may show: "When the States of
Holland sent a splendid embassy to her,
at the first audience one of the Ambas-
sadors' suite said to an English gentle
man that he did not know why they
should speak with such indifference of
the Queens beauty; that they did her
great injury; that he thought her very
charming, and should be happy in hav-
ing so fine woman for his wife. The
Queen, who had her eyes fixed upon the
whole suite of foreigners, when the audi
ence was over, sent for the English
gentleman and commanded him, under
pain of displeasure, to tell her what the
Dutchman had said to him; the gentle
man excused himself long time, pre-
tending that the conversation was moth
ing but a trife; the Queen, however,
was determined to know what the dis
course was, upon which he told Her
Majesty the whole of what had been
said. The conclusion of the matter was
that the Ambassadors were presented
each with chain of gold of 300 crowns
value, and their principal attendants
with one of 100 crowns each; but the
gallant Dutchman who had found the
Queen so very, very handsome, had a
chain of 1000 crowns value, which, il
is said, Mynheer wore to the day of his
DEATH"

ONE of our exchanges-the Graphic
was it ?-has delved into Jugulug history
and discovered that the Ahkoond Of
Swat was the cousin of the Newab of
Joonaghur, uncle of the Rajah of Ko-
apore, and distantly related to the Bhow
Sahib Sungli. According to our recol-
lection of the fanily's pedigree this is
correct--though it might be added that
his uncle on his fathers side married a
Nubsahb, whose father WAS the Bodug.

Drunk or Dying?

Not the least hideous TO contemplate
among the dangers of the streets is the
possibility of sudden illness when one is
alone in public thoroughfare. The pc
destrian knocked down and tramp1ed
upon by furiously-driven horse, or the
wayfarer struck by a falling chimney,
will be more or less carefully conveyed
to the nearest hospital, there to be tended
with skill and surrounded by com
fort. But the unfortunate who finds
himself suddenly deprived of motion and
speech by the rupture of a tiny blood
vessel in his brain has an exceedingly
slender chance of such comparatively
happy fate; for him are, possibly, only
the ieers of crowd, and rough, unsym-
pathetic removal to the drunkard's cell
of the nearest police station.
In its bare solitude he may die at his
leisure during the slow night, the horror
of his situation being heightened by the
fact that he can in many cases, not of
true apoplexy, but of cerebral hemor-
rhage) hear, think and suffer, though un-
able to frame one syllable with his lips.
The idea is painful enough, most GER
tainly, and there is a possibility that it
may become the actual fate of any one
of us. For we must remember that apo
plexy gives no distinct warning of its
impending stroke, and that the most
reverend aspect cannot be relied upon to
impress the mind of the guardian of the
public peace with the possibility that an
''incapable" is dying instead of drunk.
The poet Crabbe had a peculiarly ven
cradle and noble ensemble; yet when he
fell in the roadway with an effusion of
blood on the brain, those who gathered
around him stood philosophizing upon
the melancholy work of the bottle, and he
probably owed his deliverance from the
hands of the ignorant representatives of
law entirely to the fact that his misfor-
tune overlook him, not in crowded city
streets, but in small town, where every
incident is news which flies apace, and
where he was quickly identified. Let
it be admitted, in justice to the police
man, that to distinguish by mere gen.
eral observation between the stupor of
intoxication and the coma of apoplexy
is no light task. In both there may be
flushed, bloated countenance, in both
there may be vomiting and foam upon
lips; in both there may be that peculiar
snoring respiration known technically
as stertor. And if the unfortunate
apoplectic happen to have taken single
glass of alcohol short time before his
seizure, so that its odor may be detected
in his breath, his doom is surely sealed.

Every thinking man sympathizes with the
unfortunate men out of work, who are willing
and anxious to get employment; and God
knows We have many such In our midst, as
other cities have; but sympathy is wasted on
the bummers and dead beats who loaf in the
parks and grog shops in the daytime and listen
TO incendiary harangues at night, and who
vary these occupations by driving real labor
ing men from their work. The so called labor
rioters here are not very formidable, and the
police can easily attend to them but it is none
the less the duty OF the authorities to start all
The public work they can with as little DELAY
as possible, give fair prices for it, and employ
the really worthy wOrkingmen, of whom there
are large numbers out of employment with
suffering families. Every man has a right to
NIX the standard Of wages for which he will
WORK, but no man has the right 10 fix that
standard for another. This is JUS ice and COM
mon sense, and the authorities must see to il
that no man is driven from his employm ent
III he is, he has fair claim against the local
government for the money he would earn if
let alone.
