A Word to the CoruuIent,

Instead of regarding obesity as an abnormal
condition, many people have enormously consd
cred it as an evidence Of health and any agent
that reduces lat is therefore suspected OF being i'll
juious Starting to reason from the ia Sc position
that fat is an evidence OF health it is not surpris-
ing that they should very naturally, fall into the
error OF surprising that an agent possessing prop
critics capable OF reducing corpulency would
prove injurious to the health. Reasoning how
ever, from the rational basis, that an undue dis
position of fat, constituting obesity, is not a
healthy but morbid condition. it is quite as nat
ural for us to arrive at the opposite conclusion,
which is sustained by experience and observation,
!. G., that the reduction Of fat in cases of corpu.
lency is invariably followed by an improvement
OF strength, spirits, and physical comforts Allan's

other house. The next evening her sister
met her ana told her that five men we're

Were it not for fast trotters, runners
and short-horns, our rejecting citizens
might have time to think and
talk of the more important matters
that concern the prosperity of the
city and the happiness oil her people. Cheap
fuel and plenty of water would make Lex
ington one of the most desirable inland
cities in America for manufacturing pur-
poses. The coal, of superior quality is near
us. We only lack railroad to it. The
water can be had for less money than small
er cities have expended for it. We have
transportation north, south, east and west
The cotton fields of the South lie nearer to
us than they do to Lowell, Mass. Iron ore
and timber abound in our mountain coun-
try not more than sixty miles distant. We
have the finest and most productive soil in
the known world; the only natural blue
grass country on the globe. Money is no
object with many. We only need energy,
enterprise and business sense to make Lex
ington one of the most thrifty cities in
America.
