DO WE EAT TOO MuUa.
A Suggestion That Most People Consume
More Food Than They Need.

LONDON SPECTATOR
Nothing consumes the general wealth Of
the world like the feeding Of its popula.
tons, and it is by no means yet complete.
ly settled that the majority Of men, once
above the imperative restrictions Of power.
ty, do not eat good deal too much. An
idea has been very generally spread that it
is healthy to eat often, till certain classes,
more especially servants, ca. five times
day; and the end OF the medical aphorism,
that those who eat often should eat little,
Is very often forgotten. The Lancet
of September 4th, In curiously
cautious article, hints that the modern
world eats too much In positive bulk OF
iood-a statement certainly true OF great
bread eaters, a distinct and well.marked
type-and thinks the modern regularity
OF meals has induced Us TO regard appe-
tite as the guide rather than hunger, which
Is the true one. Regularity OF meals de-
velopes appetite not hunger. We rather
question the previous proposition, as a
very hungry man Is apt TO eat too much,
but we believe that the extension Of
wealth and the extreme public ignorance
upon the subject tend to foster habit OF
taking too many meals. Men and women
eat three in ten hours and a. hallBbreaktast

hardly be healthy. 1t leaves thirteen
hours and q half without food, while in the
remaining ten and half there are three

work with the brain Is the destruction OF

meals. Il Is very doubtful whether the

HEATING CiTIks NJ STEAM.
NsuccessfuI Test or the Mains In Denv,

GsuccessfuI Test or the Mains In Denver.
Denver Tribune.
The attention Of good many people
was attracted yesterday afternoon to a
great cloud Of steam issuing from a pipe
laid in the street at Fifteenth snd Curtis.
On inquiry Of John W. Smith, Esq, Presi-
dent OF the Denver Steam Heating Com
pany, 1t was ascertained that test was
being made Of the mains Of the com.
pany. The test was In every
way satisfactory and successful. AL
though the company have about two miles
Of main pipe laid, not single taw or leak
was discovered. Fire was placed under
the three large boilers at the company's
building, at Nineteenth and Wiwatta
streets, yesterday morning, and In the al
ternoon the stream was permitted to es.
cape at various junction boxes. The
point mentioned above. Curtis and Fiji
teenth, is fully mile distant from the
boilers, but the stream came from the pipe
with great force when the cock was turned.
The heating Company have ordered
three more boiers Of the same dimensions
as those now in place from the firm OF
Emsminger & Davis, West Denver, and
they expect TO have use for them and still
more before many months. Radiators
have been placed in the American House
and President Smiths Office, and the steam
will be placed into them to-day or to.mor-
row, which will be the arst practical
demonstration OF the workings OF the
heating apparatus in this city.
The owners OF q number OF business
blocks, offices, manufacturing establish.
ments, etc, haYe entered into contract
with the Company to provide them with
steam for both heading and motor pur-
poses. Among them may be ,mention.
ed Wall & Writer'S wagon works, in pro.
cess OF construction, on Fifteenth street,
between Wazee and Wynkoop; w. j.
Kinsey's agricultural implement and
wagon shops, on lower Fifteenth street;
Leach & Co. scracker bakery, in The rsaro OF
thpirs store, oD Sixteenth street, near Wszee;
George TriCh's hardware store, Fifteenth
and Ws2eo streets; ex-Mayor Barker's
office, Fifteenth street, near WFZee;. John
Davis 4; Co.'s steam fitting establishment,
No. All Blake street; the Richie Block,
Lawrence street, between Fifteenth and
Sixteenth, and the Wentworth House, and
others.
The owners Of large number Of other
buildings expect to have them heated by
the Company before long, although they
have not yet entered into contract with
the Company as yet. Although the out
look for The Denver Steam.H Heating Com
pany is very hopeful, and they expect
soon to have more work on land than
they will be able to do.
