The Mound City Patriot denies that
Mound City has ever been backward In
making preparations for the celebration of
Memorial Day and that such celebration
has never turned out to be Spree The Pa
triots memory is very defective, but proba-
bly, only with reference to matters not COM
plimentary to Mound City. THE BULLETIN
insists that upon several occasions the
speaker had not been secured three days
before the celebration and that also upon
several occasions the celebration turned out
to be an ill-managed spree IN the fullest
sense of the term; and for proof of these
things we refer the Patriot TO its own files
But we do not wish to discourage the gen
tlemen having the matter in charge thit
year, aud hope aud believe that they will
see that the celebration is entirely appropri
ate to the occasion.

"No, no." said Rose, earnestly. "Con-
science may prevent us enjoying all our
rights, but it can never lessen our duties;
it must make us more scrupulous and not
less. All, didn't understand. This depos-
it is not mine, and all this happiness is a
dream !"
While speaking she had grown pale, but
neither voice nor look betrayed the least
hesitation The simple heart had not wav-
cred an instant, and all pain of disappointed
hope could not weaken her integrity; only
the blow was too severe after so much emo
ton, the young girl staggered and sat down.
AS to Fournier, reaction was working
within him. Admiration had succeeded to
disappointment. All the ingenious para
doxes invented the night before fell before
the artless uprightness of his friend, and
his soul, won over by the contagion of 10y
atty to duty, returned suddenly to his no.
BILE instincts.
Without replying word to Rose, he
summoned the Tricots, sent for a lawyer
and delivered into his hands the rich treas
ure-boX.
A small key, that the farmers wife had
found fastened around the dead mans neck,
opened it instantly and revealed several
pieces
Tricot and his wife wept for joy. Rose
and Fournier were calm.
The notary busted himself in separating
the different kinds of coin, in doing which
he found a package of bank-notes. When
all was calculated the sum amounted to
nearly 100000 francs.
The farmer, half crazed, reeled to the ta-
BILE, took up the box and shook it. A last
piece of paper, hidden between the box and
the lining, fell to the floor.
Something else to add to the store,"
said the elated countryman, picking up the
loose sheet and handing it to the notary.
The latter opened it, glanced over it and
made a motion of surprise.
"It is WILL" he said.
"a will !" exclaimed all.
"In which the late M. Duret names as
sole heir Mile. Rose Fleuriot, his godchild."
Four cries were heard at the same time
cries of surprise, ofjoy, and of baffied rage.
Tricot tried to get possession of the paper,
but the lawyer held it firmly. He was
obliged to use violence to free himself from
the disappointed couple who finally retired,
overwhelming the others with threats and
malediction.
NJ. LIE Blanc, whom they fastened to
consult, had much trouble in making them
understand that their case was hopeless,
and that no legal proceeding could put
them in possession of M. Duret's legacy.
AS for Fournier, he became in a sholt
time, the happy husband of the heiress,
who was to him not loving companion,
but an aic and prop; for the young wife
became sort of inevitable conscience
placed at the door of his heart to drive away
error and bad passion.

How MUCH SHOULD WE EAT?-H0W,
asks DR.. Nichols in the Food Reto7na
Magazine, are we to get at the proper guam
tity of food? Animals living in state of
nature do not over eat themselves. They
stop eating when they have enough. There
are no prize cattle on the prairies. 1t is
the stalled OK, and the pig in his pen, de
priyed of exercise, that can be fattened in
to diseased obesity. Horses escape this
process because men do not, to any great
extent knowingly devour them. The hun
ter and racer are not Overfed. All animals
expected to do their work are carefully fed
as to quality and quantity. If human be-
ings were fed likewise 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 of eating
too many grapes, apples, pears, or bananas.
Salt, sugar, spices, and luxurious cookery
tempt to excess. With men, as with ami
mails, natural diet is self-limited and we
are disposed to stop when we have got
enough. The more artificial the food, the
more elaborate the feast, the more liablll-
ty to overload the stomach, overtask the
digestive powers, and overweight the
forces of life. Simplicity of food is a con-
dition of health, and promotes longevity.
The quantity of food which enables man
to do his work without loss Of weight
is precisely what he requires. He sup
plies the daily waste-no more and no
less. 1t is my opinion that the average
quantity of water free aliment required,
say of business and literary men, is twelve
oul,ces. Men of great muscular activity
may require sixteen to twenty ounces. I
have found myself in very good condition
for sedentary work on eight or ten ounces.
When anybody is in good condition for his
work and keeps his normal weight, he has
food enough. DR.. Nicholl's advice is, find
this quantity by experiment, and then hab-
itually keep to it,

SELF-EsTEEM.-A reasonable amount Of
self-esteem is necessary to secure a mans
success in life and there are few characters
into which it does not enter to a great ex-
tent. We laugh at our neighbors, their fol-
bles and absurdities excite our amusement,
because we consider ourselves superior to
like weaknesses. Their troubles cause us
distress; but is not even divine compass
sion form ofself-love, or rather, self-pity?
Do we not grieve for others in proportion as
we are able to put ourselves in their place,
and picture what we should feel under the
same circumstances? The reciprocal regard
for one another's interests, the mutual es-
TEEN, the exchange of kind offices, which
constitute friendship, find their chief source
too, in self-love. If we have been inclined
to esteem any one ever so highly, let 1t be
whispered in our ear that that same person
does not think much of us, and we immedi-
ately find out that heis not nearly so charm
ing as we had imagined, and that his good
opinion is not, after all, worth having. On
the other hand, among our acquaintance
there may be an individual whom we con-
slider but weak-minded and ignorant, and
think, in fact, quite beneath our notice.
Wait little, it comes to our knowledge
that this same creature whom we have been
despising, has an immense admiration for
u.s.. All our ideas change directly, and we
discover all his hidden merits he has at
least powers of discrimination, and is some
Judge of character. We like our neighbors
much more for the virtues they find in us
than for any we discover in them, whether
we choose to acknowledge it or not. But it
is perhaps in the passion of love that the
very alcohol of egotism is to be found low
ers never weary of each others society SO
long as they can keep up the intensity ofmu-
tual admiration their tete-a-tetes are always
interesting, for they perpetually talk about
themselves, and should their love be crossed,
both would probably rather that the loved
one should be miserable than Indifferent.
They are completely ruled by the self that
rules the world.

The Canadian Pacific Railway Com

of the road between Calgary and

must be completed in two years from
the first of May next. The contract
has been given to Messrs Langdon,

The California Legislature recently
passed a law which enacts that por-

insanity, shall have the question Of
insanity tried first, with no reference
to the crime. In cases of homicide,
where insanity is pleaded and sus-
tanned, the court shall commit the
accused to the insane asylum, from
whence he shall not be discharged
unless UPON proof that he was not
insane at the time of the commission
of the otfense charged, and in such
case he shall, upon being discharged
from the asylum, be recommitted for
trial for the original otense charged.
The bill to provide civil govern
ment for Alaska, which came up in
the national house of representatives
last week was supported by good
many representatives. Proctor Knott.
of Kentucky, however, spoke against
it. 1t was his belief that there were
not 500 civilized souls in Alaska, and
he was opposed to the bill because
one OF its sections gave the secretary
of the interior the power to dispose
of such OF the lands or mines of Alas
ka rs he chose. The bill was beaten
by vote Of 100 for to sc against-it
requiring two-thirds vote to carry
it. Another effort will be made this
week.
The supreme court of Kansas has
again affirmed the constitutionality
OF the prohibition laws of that state.
The plaintiffs in the case claimed
that the law violates the constitution
of the United States by depriving cit
liens Of property without due pro-
cess of law, rendering the property
of brewers valueless il the law stands.
The majority of the court held the
law valid, dissenting opinion being
given that the state should pay for
the property of the brewers. The
matter will go to the U. S. supreme
court for final determination. That
court will undoubtedly affirm the
right to regulate or prohibit the Ii
quor traffic, under the police powers
of the states. Similar decisions have
been given by that body.
