Proverbs from Don Qulxote.

Beauty in a modest woman is like g
fire or sharp sword at distance !;
neither doth the one burn nor the other
wound those that come not too close to
them.
Keep your mouth shut and your eyes
open.
The absent feel and fear every i'll.
Self-praise depreciates.
The dead to the bier, the living to
good cheer.
All women, let them be ever 50 home
Iy, are pleased to hear themselves cele.
brated for their beauty.
Squires and knights Grant are subject
to much hunger and i'll luck.
L!berality may be carried too far in
those who have children to inherit from
them.
Covetousness bursts the bag.
Virtue is always more prosecuted bv
the wicked than beloved by the right
eOus.
! Every one is the son of his own works.
Honey is not for the mouth Of an ass.
No paddock, bolts or bars can secure a
maiden SO we'll as her own reserve.
Wit and humor belong to genius alone.
The wittiest person in a comedy is he
! who plays the fool.
There is no book 50 bad but something
good may be found in it.
We are all as God made US and often
times great deal worse.
Let hen live, though it be with pip.
We cannot all be friars, and various
are the paths by which God conducts the
good to heaven.
1t is easy to undertake, but more diff
cult to finish the thing.
The term is equally applicable to all
ranks, whoever is ignorant is vulgar.
By the streets Of "By-and. by" one
arrives at the house of "Never."
Between the eyes" and "No" of q
woman I would not undertake to thrust
the head of pin.
Patience and shuttle the cards.
A soldier had better smell gunpowder
than musk.
Other mems pains are easily borne.
A bad cloak of ten covers good

Pray devoutly and hammer on stoutly.
When thing is once begun it is almost

A Theory in Regard to Food.

The Pail Mall Gazette says: GA Ger
man physician has started a new theory
with regard to food. He maintains that
both the vegetarians and meat-eaters are
on the wrong tack. Vegetables are not
more wholesome than meat, or meat than
vegetables, and nothing is gained by con-
Stunning a compound of both. Whatever
nutritive qualities they may possess, he
says, are destroyed in great measures
and often entirely by the process Of cook
ing. All food. should be eaten raw.
If this practice we're adopted, there
would be little or no illness among human
beings. They would live their appor.
toned time and simply fade away, like
animals in a wild state, from old age.
Let those afflicted with gout, rhematism
and indigestion try for time the effect
of simple uncooked diet, such as oys-
tiers and fruit for instance, and they will
find all medicines unnecessary, and such
a rapid improvement of their health that
they will forswear ali cooked articles of
food at once and forever. Intemperance
would also, it is urged, no longer be the
curse of civilized communities. The
yearning for drink is caused by the I'M
natural abstraction from what are term
ed solids of the aqueous elements they
contain-uncooked beef, for example,
containing from seventy to eighty per
cent and some vegetables even larger
proportion of water. There would be
less thirst, and consequently less desire
to drink, if our food were consumed in
its natural state, without:frst being sub
jected to the action of fire. Clothing,
our adviser also thinks, is mistake, but
he admits that the world is not yet far
enough advanced in civilization to 20
about undressed. Whatever differences
of opinion may exist az to this anti-cook-
ing, theory, there cannot he doubt that
in getting rid of the kichen with all its
abuses, including the cook, housekeepers
would be spared a vast amount of worry,
and probably on this account alone
would live to a greater age than at
present"

Conscientious Barber.

A story comes from Milan of a highly
oonscieuc;ous barber who fcd from
Temptation. He had been called to shave
an eminent capitalist in his own house.
After scraping the millionare% chin for
a while, the barber suddenly threw down
the razor and ran out of the room. BE-
ing pursued, and an explanation
demanded, he said: "The sight OF the
gold was too much for me. IT had not
run away I should have cut the 1 nc
mans throat, and robbed him.: me
eentleman who escaped this sad fate
Was 50 grateful that he presented "a the the
barber the sum of 100 francs. AL ths
same if he has occasion to employ that
barber again he had better lock up his
money before being 4iathsed. 4 second
temptation might not be SO triu'" Thantly
resisted.
