longevity study, it is almost unanimously
agi eed that fruit and vegetable diet is con-
ducive to long life and perfect health. And
II is among the vegetable kingdom that we
find our principal means OF restoring health

olden times, when centenarians were COM

Belle, who said he always fell more ol

her arrayed for church. She was al

so sweetly different from her every. day
aspect, that she made regular weekly

man who would eat unrepellantly.
Fried oysters are sore trial to the cthe-
real girl who sits down TO them with her
admirer after late theatrical perform
ance. 1t has been five or six hours
since dinner and she is as hungry as a
bear that has lived on his paws all win
ter. She knows that bedtime is close
ahead, and she will not have to endure
her corset long, if she does tighten it
from the inside. But big appetite is
disenchanting in a maiden, and fried
oysters are greasy. The problem before
her is how to put the seven oysters into
herself without convincing the young
man that her stomach is about like his
own in its periodical call for food. There
is risk in the matter that no skill
can wholly eliminate. The bert rule is
TO put on an expression of very mild dis.

fashionable oyster house the other night,
and saw that by neglecting her deport
ment she was shocking the fellow across
the table. Perhaps she didn't care
whether he adored her not. Anyhow
she was putting the oysters into her
mouth by halves, chewing them with
undisguised gusto, swallowing plenty of
bread and cut cabbage along with them;
and taking no pains whatever TO disguise
the fact that she was enjoying them
nightly. At the next table sat thick
er and older woman, who practised the
art of oyster eating as | have indicated
it. Her facial expression was clever
She slipped in the food in big pieces
when her companion wasn't looking
and nibbled when he was looking. She
got away with hearty meal without ap-
pearing to have taken anything to speak
of, and it was only the empty plates that
revealed the fact. She was not less
skiilful in drinking her half quart of
champagne. The glass was lifted to her
lips like the hand of queen to kiss; her
mouth shut over barely an inch Of the
brim; there was no stopping or gurgling;
the wine trickled neatly down her
throat, but with quite sufficient celerity.

BILE of the fluid effervescing in her BRAIN,
she failed for dreamy instant to recog-

seen by nobody but me. She recovered
her equanimity instantly, and departed

Keeping Lent with n Horsewhip.
Milwaukee, Sun

A Toronto man is under arrest for
whipping his grown daughter, striking
her dozen times with horsewhip, and
his defense is that he is pious man and
that he desired his daughter to keep
Lent, and that she couldn't see it in that
light. II is pretty tough for pious man
to have to beat religion into child with
horsewhip, but we suppose it has to be
done. When good sized girl will not
keep Lent, but insists on swallowing
meat and going to the devil, what is a
fellow going to do? The Law will not
bring her to her milk and fish diet, and
keep her in nights, so the pious father
takes her by the nap Of the neck and
the calf of the back and shakes the day
lights out of her, or give her a horse.

they begged hard, so went with them

remainder of the body for the next day.
Accordingly the incisions were made,
