WHEN TO EAT FRUIT.-The Spanish provarb

AT noon but lead at night" Americans do not
seem to have heard of this proverb. nor to have
fruit at light, and hence have not the sovereign
idea OF it that they would have il they had
eaten it at more proper times They eat il as
dessert at dinner. This may be the most proper
time to eat dried fruits, but it is not the right
time to eat juicy ones. The Spanish people
learned their proverb from eating the very
juicy fruits, like oranges These should be
later than noon. Early in the day they viii, if

by horses, are at work, and gangs of men are
cleaning off the snow with push shovels. The

RUN IN THE GROUND

That 10 What Became Of That Meteor.
The meteor which passed over this city
two weeks ago today. and was supposed BY
those Who saw it to have come 10 the earth
. short distance from Yankton, fell in EN-
met county, Iowa, about $50 miles northeast
from here. A writer at Jackson, MINI, Is
miles distant from where the meteor fell
says the report caused BY its coming in con-
tact with the earth was distinctly heard at
that place and at points still more distant,
and that the shock was distinctly felt at the
same distance. 1t tore . hole in the ground
twelve feet acroas at the surface, and threw
sods ~ large - . mans bodys distance of
ten rods A number of men set to work
digging after the meteor. and found it buried
fifteen feet below the surface, ten feet of
which was hard clay. The largest piece
taken out weighed 43l pounds, aud enough
small pieces we're found to make 500 pounds
in all. Thoee Who saw It strike say it ex-
ploded in the ground. 1t consists Of mete-
oric iron, very dense, and thought BY some
to contain silver ore. 1t has \ ragged out
side, covered with whitish substance which
can be taken of, leaving the hard metal.
There is a great chance for scientific specu-
lation and investigation.

NATURES WARNINGS.

When the inhabitants Of . volcanic region
hear the dreaded subterranean noises that
precede q volcanic eruption. or an earth
quake shock, they take immediate precau-
ttons 70 escape the Threatened danger.
When the Inhabitants Of Guapaxusto Of
the Mexican plateau first heard those
strange subterranean noises, now known a.
the "Roaring thunder Of Guanaxuato."
they fed from the city in terror. and only
returned when compelled by military force.
Thus promptly do men seek refuge, from
threatened corporal dangers. But they
heed not those other manifest warnings OF
nature-debility d%rowsiness, loss of appetite
and mitigation. the sure forerunners of
disease, threatening to overwhelm and de.
stroy the system. Not an hour should be
lost when nature thus warns you Of ap-
prosching danger. until you have taken the
proper measures to avert 1t. Neglect NAV
mean death. To arouse the vital functions
to their normal activity, and purify and
strengthen the blood, use Dr.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and Plessan,
Purgative Pellets, the hest alternative, OF
blood-purifylng tonic. and cathartic rene
dies yet compounded from the vegetable
KINGDOM.

Protect the syst.n from Malaria.

1t is possible to do this even in regions Of
country where miasma Is most rife. and where
the periodic fevers which it causes assume their
most formidable types. The immense pOpularl-
ty of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters Is very largely
attributable to the fact Of its efficacy as a renee
dy for chills and fever, bilious remittents. and as
a preventive Of the various forms Of malarial
disease. In those portions OF the west and south
where complaints Of this nature prevail. aud IN
the tropics, 1t is particularly esteemed for the
