Shaaa1x i'm JeWelPy.

The recent experiment Of London lady of
rank who wished to sell some jewels goes to
prove that shams are not newer than other
things under the sun. Regarding what were
supposed to be splendid rubies the jeweler said;
They are certainly very snowy, madam. Int
unfortunately only clever limitations in glass. -
The lady, much chagrined, then called atten-
ton to the heavy setting, to which the ieweler
replied. after the usual tests, 1.-THE setting is
only gilt" Another article produced for an
praisement was superb bracelet, the gift of a
Continental sovereign to the wife of distfn-
guished diplOmatist. The skilful manufacturer
and specific gravity Of this splendid object had
been extOlled for generations in the family of
the possessor, and so highly was 1t priced that
1t was invariably sent to the bankers whenever
the family went out OF town. The jeweler scru-
tinized it carefully and pronounced it to be ex-
tremely heavy; ''but," he added, 'ff you will
allow me, madam, to raise the very thin plate, I
s sd be able to sdow You that the bracelet is
that the original purchasers of these articles
believed them to be genuine, and paid for them
as such. few years ago an English gentleman
took bracelet to a leading provincial English
leweier to have the clasp mended. The
then said: "You are aware that this is not gen.
uine." 'Not genuine!" exclaimed the gentle
man, ''you must be mistaken. This was given
to my wife on her marriage by my uncle, the
last man in the world to give sham jewelry"
But the jeweler, an eminent man in his line. per
sisting, the donor was informed. He wrote back
that it had cost $500, and ordered that it
at once be sent to him; and taking 1t to
Messrs. firm of the first
eminence, Indignantly stated his case. It was
sham: They offered check at once. or q new
bracelet, and seemed terribly chagrined. Their
explanation was that, do what they would,
they were at times the victims Of their work.

SIMPLICITY In FOOD.


How, asks DR.. Nichols in tho Food Reform
Magazine, are we to get at the proper quantity
OF foOd3 Animals living in state Of nature do
not over-eat themselves. They stop eating
when they have got enough. There are no
prize cattle on the prairies. 1t is the stalled
OK, and the pig in his pen, deprived of exer-
else that can be fattened into diseased obesity.
Horses escape this process because men do not
to any great extent knowingly devour them. The
hunter and racer are not over-fed ALI animals
expected to do their work are carefully fed as to
quality and quantity. If human beings were
fed as wisely, they would be as healthy.
There are some good rules for feeding as to
quantity. When our food is simple and natural
in kind and quality and mode of preparation,
there Is little danger of eating too much. There
is little danger. for example, of eating too
many grapes, apples. pears, and bananas. Salt,
sugar, spices, and luxurious cookery tempt to
excess. With men, as with animals, natural
diet is sef-limiting, and we are disposed to stop
when we have got enough. The more artificial
the food. the more elaborate and luxurious
the feast, the more the liability to overload the
stomach. Overtax the digestive power, and
overweight the forces of life, Simplicity of
food is condition of health, and promotes
longevity. The quantity of food which en-
ables a man to do his daily work without loss
of weight is precisely. what he requires. He
supplies the daily waste-no more no less.
This quantity may vary little with each indi-
vidual, but every one can easily ascertain his
own measure of requirement by reducing the
quantity of daily food until he finds balance of
force and weight. 1t is my opinion that the
average quantity OF water-free ament re-
Guired, say by business and literary men. is
twelve ounces. Men of great muscular activity
may require sixteen to twenty ounces. / have
found myself in very good condition for seden-
tary work on eight or ten ounces. When any
one is in good condition for his work and keeps
his normal weight, he has food enough. DR..
Nichols advice is, find this quantity by expert
ment, and then habitualy keep to 1t.

DIR. Macdonald says that it would be unsafe
and improper to permit iunatics to send out
letters from insane asylums at will. As super
intendent of the Wards Island insane ASYLUM he
knows whereof he aifirms. Dr. GRAY of the
Utica asylum, says that inmates of that insti-
tuition are encouraged to correspond with their
friends. but the letters they send are inspected,
of course. 1t Is known to most people that the
most delicate and refined persons when insane
may be ind ecent in language and conduct and
1t would be outrageous to permit them to send
out letters q lied with obscenity and vitupera-
tive abuse law might be passed providing

ners Public sentiment is tending toward the
plan of board of examiners in lunacy, by
whom commitments to asylums shall be made,
and To whom appeals from complaints within
asylum walls shall be presented To such a
board. composed of men distinguished for their
knowledge of mental disease, the rejected let

Ought not the next legislature to create the
proposed board Of examiners in lunacy for New
