Between 1857 and 1876, the value of
imported and cereal food consumed in
Great Britain rose from e35, ,000, 600 to
$110, ,000, 900, about one-half being repre-
sented by wheat; in fact, it seems that the
half of every loaf eaten In England is
made of foreign wheat. One point which
has not been fully noticed before is that
to-day the Use of food derived from ami
NAL sources has very much increased in
England. Thirty years ago not more
than one-third of the English people con-
sumed animal food even once in the week.
To-day nearly all of them use it at least
once every day. Now, ten years ago the
United Kingdom produced nine-tenths
of the meat and dairy produce which
was eaten, but last year three-fourths
only were made, the other fourth coming
from abroad.

Spring Perils.

The first sunshine of spring is deceitfuI,
and the draughts of air pernicious. One
TO be as carefully swathed in flannel
during the spring thaw as under the per-
meating influence of an autumn freeze.
Changes of temperature are insidious as
they are sudden at this season, and it be-
hooves people with lungs susceptible to
atmospheric alterations to be most care
full indoors and out; to wear garments
appropriate for all seasons, never trusting
to chance. A Needless person may throw
upon overtaxed shoulders burden griev-
GUS te be borne by inattention to things
which only perpetual consciousness OF
facts could spare them. / know an es-
timable lady who, after three years of
constant care on the part of friends, ter
minated her frail life by a willful deter
mination to take sleigh ride of a few
blocks. Her lungs despite the muff1ing
in rich fur, could not resist the influx of
strong air; congestion ensued, and the
home was broken. Life is too brief and
too precious for such experiments it is a
God-given treasure, which no one but q
| coward and an idiot win recklessly risk
or throw away. Hence, it behooves us to
make the most of the immunities of art
science which tend to prolong, to pre-
serve or embelish it, to garnish the tenn
| pie in which the Creator has put His soul
/ to dwell, as TO render it acceptable here Oh
hereafter.-Netpdrk Advertiser.

Words Of Wisdom.

Tears are the gift which love bestows
upon the memory of the absent, and they
will avail to keep the heart from suifoca-
ton.
It is curious fact that on the track OF
knavery q misplaced switch will be found
somewhere, and it is sure to wreck the
train.
Good pictures are great teachers. A
fine work of art hanging in ones house
speaks to him constantly in language OF
tender beauty that wins its way to the
heart.
What is dificultyP Only a word indi-
eating the strength requisite for accom-
plishing difficult objects a bugbear to
children and fools; only mere stimulus
to men.
False happiness renders men stern and
proud, and that happiness is never COM
municated, The true happiness renders
them kind and sensible, and that happi-
ness is always shared.
Some eyes threaten like loaded and
leveled pistol, and others are as insulting
rs kissing or kicking; some have no more
expression than blueberries, while others
are as deep as well which you can fall
into.

Public Mem Who are Afraid Of Women.

No city in the Republic, not even New
York, so swarms with adventrresses as
Washington, which has for years been
the chosen field of the bold, dangerous,
wholly unprincipled tribe. They can be
counted by hundreds; they are of every
sort and degree. They are In the Depart
ments, at the hotels, at the boarding
houses-everywhe that q man can be
found, seduced or frightened. Their
missions are multifarious and their move
ments mysterious. They are seeking
positions; they are lobbyists; they have,
or their friends have, claims. They need
personal, political, pecuniary assistance
indeed, all kinds, except the moral
kind. Most of them are blackmailers.
The widow Oliver was but one of the
many. They are so crafty and treacher-
ous that public men of reputation or
means are afraid of, and always on the
alert against them. The late Salmon P.
Chase, would never, during his official
life at the Capitol, see a woman he did
not know intimately, except in the pres
ence of witnesses. Many Congressman,
Senators and other office-holders have
also made it rule to receive no visits
from women alone. Senator Chandler,
though not noted for delicacy, is partic-
Butler, despite his audacity and reckless
ness. These and other public men re-
fuse to see women at their rooms, or
houses, or anywhere, without third per-
sons. The experience Of others, if not
their own, has made them wary and ap-
prehensive. There are, doubtless, many
mon not afraid of any man. We question
if there be any man not afraid of women
/ If there be. he has surely never been liz
Washington.

Use Good Language.

We advise all young people to acquire
in early life the habit of using good Lam
guage, both in speaking and writing, and
also to abandon the use of slang words
and phrases. The longer they live the
more difficult the acquisition of good LAM
guage will be; and if the golden age of
youth, the proper time for the acquisition
of language, be passed in abuse, the un-
fortunate victim of neglected education is
very probably doomed to talk slang for
life. Money is not necessary to procure
this education. Every person has it in
his power. He has to use the language
which he reads instead of the slang which
he hears; to form taste from the best
speakers and poets of the country to
treasure up choice phrases in his memory,
and habituate himself to their use, avoid
ing at the same time that pedantie preci-
sion and bombast which show rather the
weakness of wasted ambition than the
polish of an educated mind.

was this COW born in two different years,
bred by two different gentlemen, begot-
