What Shall We Eat.

What to eat is certainly n question
of great Importance. Miss Juliet Cor.
son has just delivered lecture upon
the subject in New York. She said
that one-sixth of our waking hours are
devoted to the considerationd of oul
food supply. 1t has been said the first
duty of an American is to get some
thing to eat" The second duty is to
cook it properly. The relation between
the food and health has been too long
disregarded. Hence arises our beauti-
~fully-defned national disease 'dyspep-
sia."
Men would make better husbands If
they thoroughly understood all the do
nestle duties which their wives have
to perform. Different climates and diff
ferent occupations required different
kinds Of food.
Food IS of three classes-nitrogenous
or meaty food, carbonaceous or fatty
food, and phosphoretic or brain food.
The first is best for quick and powerful
exertion, the second for warmth and
for men who do continued labor, and
the third for speakers, writers and
thinkers. A dinner should contain all
these, SO that all tastes a be satisfied.
Plenty of plain, nutritious food should
be eaten early in the day to replace the

FASHION NOVELTIES.

Neckties and fichus are made of bre-
tonne lace in all shapes.
A very pretty ichu is Of cream col
ored crepe lisse, embroidered with a
garland of flowers in pale, natural
shades. 1t is trimmed around with a
plating Of bretonne lace. The great
beauty of this 6chu consists in the way
In which it is draped. Instead of fall
ing from the shoulders straight down
to the waist, it is turned over near the
shoulder, which makes the drapery fall
full and gracefully.
The small caps for morning wear
change continually in shape and trim
ming. Sometimes they form a kind OF
"calotte mauresque," made of bright
colored silk, trimmed with gilt and sill
yer sequins, and sometimes they are
formed of a twisted scarf in a pale
shade with flowers intermixed. All
material, such as velvet, satin, silk and
muslin are used for these caps. They
are generally trimmed with bretonne
lace.

SECOND TERM FOR HA Y

If the democrats in congress were
wise they would speedily attend to the
necessary appropriation billsand prompt-
ly adjourn. The prolonged session,
and the action Of the majority, have
united the republican party as solidly
as it was when 1t elected Gen. Grant in
'6S. Its course has been such that in
dependents have no choice outside of
one of the two parties. They have
gone back to camp. Senator Davis has
even gone over to the enemy, with whom
he has been coquetting for some time.
There seems to be no middle ground.
The leading republican politicians
are watching the course OF events most
earnestly, for it has a direct and in
f1uential bearing on the next presi-
Dental campaign. The hostile position
of the democracy demonstrates the
necessity of a strong and popular
defense, hence the movement which
has for its object the denomination Of
Gen. Grant. AS the general represents
solidity, strength and unwavering deter
mination, he is held to be Just the man
to Withstand the overturning attempts
on the part of the democracy. There
fore, the more the brigadisrs rear and
plunge, the more popular becomes the
sentiment in favor of Gen. Grant.
But it is said that President Hayes
sees the necessity for a strong stand,
and knowing, will maintain, During
the first two years of his term he no
doubt thought to conciliate the south,
and soften the asperities of partizanship
by a wholesome and liberal policy. His
efforts have failed; and, worst of all,
In his W estimation, the failure is
due to the south itself, which his policy
was designed to benefit. This base in
gratitude has no doubt convinced the
president that he need not hope for con-
Citation. Indeed, If he is reported cor
rectly, he sees and feels the necessity
Of acting on the defensive. To act on
the defensive means to be in harmony
with the entire republican party in re-
sisting the encroachments of the demo-
cracy. President Hayes appreciates
the importance of the issues soon to be
presented to him. and will have OPP
p%ortunity to arrive at an intelligent
understanding Of the situation at the
proper time. He is fully aware that
the eyes OF the entire north are on him
now as they never were before. Wig
orous and intelligent action, therefore,
is a requisite to continued and even
greater favor. He has, as II were, his
future in his own hands, and can mold

Twas midnight in Edinburg, when
two strangers in a happy frame of mind
were seen gazing at the old Iron Church
clock, vigorously discussing whether
twas sun or moon. Being unable to
decide, they agreed to leave it to a pass
ing third party, who quickly replied
that he did not know, as he was a
stranger in those parts. Are not the
statements of those who are strangers
to the merits Of DIR. Pierce's Family
Medicines, and yet condemn them be-
cause they have been deceived in other
put up" medicines, equally as sensi-
Bile? Would you condemn the church
because you chance to know one or two
hypocrites? In diseases of the stomach,
liver, blood and lungs, the discovery
has no equal. Those whom it has cured
are numbered by thousands. Is it not
safer to trust a remedy that has been so
extensively and successfully employed,
than the inexperienced physician who
has naught but repeated failures to
which he can refer? For full particu-
lars, see the Peoples Common Sense

pages and nearly 300 illustrations.

Predicting Plague.

Numerous attemps have been made
of late to show that the variations in
the number of spots on the suns face
were the cause Of excessive rains, poor
wheat crops, commercial panics and
other terrestrial occurrences. Now
comes Mr.. B. c. Jenkins, Fellow of
the British Royal Astronomical society,
who says the cholera, black death and
other plaques are the effect of planetary
influences, and particularly of those of
the four outer planets-Jupiter, Sat
urn, Uranus and Neptune. He goes
back for hundreds of years, asserts
that all the plaques which have swept
over Europe during that period can be
accounted for by the movements and
positions of one or more of these plan
cts; and concludes with this ominous
prediction; 81 would say that within
the nextsseyen years there will happen
that which has hot happened for hun
dreds of years; all the planets at or near
their nearest point to the sun about the
same time. 1t is true of the earth that
its magnetic intensity is greatest about
the time when it is near the sun; the
same is probably true of all the planets;
therefore we may expect extraordinary
magnetic phenomena during the next
seveny years, and great plaques, which
will manifest themselves in all their in.
tensity when Jupiter is about three
years from his perihelion-that is, in

"HoIsT by their own petard," one
would say in reply to the democratic
argument that Mr.. Tilden is the dejure
president of the United States, but is
serving out his term in private. AS the
democracy are decidedly pronounced
against more than mi term for presi-
dents, Sammy's claim fora second
term is mot well taken. Besides this
is the only time in the history Of the
country when both parties had presi-
dents serving at the same time. But
then the republicans want no better
game than Samuel j. Tilden as the
democratic candidate for the presidency
in 1880.
