The Long-Lived Man.

II is easy to sketch him. He was
q welI-proportioned statue, without,
however, being too tall. He is
rather of the middle size, and some-
what thick set. His complexion is
not too Horid-at any rate, too
much ruddiness in youth il seldom a
sign of longevity. Hair approaches
rather to the fair than to the black !;
his skin is strong, but not rough.
His head is not too big. He has
large veins at extremities, and his
shoulders are rather round than fat I:
his neck is not too long, his belly
docs not project, and his hands are
large, but not too deeply cleft. His
foot il rather thick than long, and
his legs are firm and round. He has
broad chest and strong voice, ana
thu faculty Of retaining his breath
for long time without difficulty.
His nerves are never ont of order /:
his pulse is slow and regular. Hls
appetite is good and his digestion
easy. lie has not too much thirst,
which is always sign of rapid SELF
consumption. His passions never
become too violent or destructive.
lfhe gives away 20 soger, he exper>
isnoes glow of warmth without an
overlooking of the gall. lie likes
employ ment, particularly calm med
itation and agreeable speculation-is
an optimist, friend to nature aud
domestic felicity--has no thirst after
either honor or riches, and bunishes
pill thought of tomorrow.

A Belgian bridegroom was about
TO start for Paris on his wedding
tour, when his bride informed him
that she thought of concealiEg about
her several thousand francs worth
of lace, hoping by its sale to defray
the cost Of the journey. The bride
groom was afraid of the searcbers
on the frontier, and to humor him
the bride promised TO give up the
plan, but secreted the lace just the
same. As they approached the
frontier the husband reflected that
if his wife were. not searched his
fears would be Knocked at as groand-
less and his prestige would be i'm
paired. Accordingly he took fa-
vorable opportunity to whisper to
an official that by searching yonder
lady he might find some lace. The
official winked and the BRIDE was led
into the female sesrcher's room from
which soon issued sobs and screams,
and presently the official said to the
norrified husband "rhank you sir
tho capture is good one. The la
dy will be taken to prison and hall
the fine will go to you.

Re.OpenIng Q Thoroughfare.

In order to guard against results utterly
subversive of health, it is absolutely essential
that the grand thoroughfare or avenue OF the
system, the bowels, should be re-opened as
speedily as possible when they become OBJ
structed. If they are not the bile is misdirect-
ed into the blood the liver becomes torpii ;
viseid bilious matter gets into the stomach and
produces Indigestion; headaches ensue and
other symptoms are produced, which pros
longation of the exciting cause only tends to
aggravate. The aperient properties of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters constitute most
useful agent in overcoming construction OF the
bowels and promoting regular habit of body,
1t is infinitely superior 70 the drastic carthar-
tics frequently used for the purpose, since it
does not, like them,a violently but produces
a natural, painless effect which does not i'm
pair the tone of the evacuatory organs, which
it invigorates instead of weakening. The
stomach and liver, also, indeed. the entire
system, is strengthened and regulated by it.
