George Eliot, He was calling on us
here, and in the course of the talk he
said to Mrs. Macquoid, I'VE always take
an interest in your work, apart from its
merit, because Of the likeness of the cir.
cumstances which induced YOU and Mrs.
Lewes to write Would you like to
hear how my wife began?" He then
went on to say, I'VE were living at
Richmond. | had more than once asked
her to try If she could write fiction, but
she always said she did not think she
had power to do it. One day | went to
town early. When | came home in the
evening she read to me the beginning of
Amos Barton'--the tea party. Well
I said, that is very good, but always
knew you had humor. DO pathos as
well and you will make fortune She
said she was afraid pathos was not in
her power told her it was pity, be-
cause the one gift required the presence

A Heidelberg graduate gave n report
er some facts and figures the other day
that will surprise majority of people
He said; at is a thing most curious
that almost everybody seems to regard
beef tea as kind OF essence of all the
nutritious and strengthening qualities
Of tho meat. You will even hear some
doctor talk of building up their patients
on beef tea. Now, the fact is that there
is in a bowl of bGef tea but little, if any,
more nutriment than there is in glass
OF lemonade How could there be? We
know that the principal nutriment parts
of beef besides its Is per cent of water,
are albumen and fat Now, albumen
coagulates aql76 degrees Fahrenheit, and
at PIP, the boiling point, it becomes like
eggs hard boiled. As a consequence,
the albumen contained in the meat be-
comes entangled in the meshes and is
firmly held there. OF course, then, the
albumen does not find its way into the
beef tea. As for the fat, the only re.
naming strengthening ingredient, that
comes to the top and is always careful.
ly skinned of, for nothing is more dis.
gushing to sensitive appetite than
greasy beef tea, And yet YOU will say
that well-made beef tea is very palatable
and seems to do good in many cases OF
weak and disordered stomachs, stimu-
lating, not nourshing.
80 it is, and so it does. And yet
beef tea is not nourshing, 1t is stimu-
lating, however. and when we are sick
and have no appetite, we know that if
we can get the stomach to retain a cup
OF beef tea it will not be long before the
organ will call for something that is
really substantial and nourishing. II
has the same stimulating effect as aglass
OF brandy or whisky, without ontailiug
the depressing after effect which alcohol
produces. The ingredient that gives to
beef tea its strong, agreeable flavor is
fluid that is dissolved out of the white
tibrous tissues Of the meat, and which.
as said before, is no more nourishing
than so much lemon Juice. An expert
ment was made on three dogs. all as
nearly alike, as to age and size, as we
could get them, The dogs were all shut
up in separate pens, side by side. For
the first dog was ordered diet of
Lieblg' extract of beef and all the water
he wanted to drink. Dog No. 2 was res
tricted to water only, being allowed
nothing whatever to eat, while the third
animal was allowed neither food of any
kind to eat nor water OF course the
dog that had no water was the first 10
die; but if you should guess which was
the next to succumb you would prob
ably make mistake. II was.not the dog
that was allowed nothing TO eat, but the
one at the lower end of the row, who
died with a quantity of meat extract
within six inches of his nose Dog No.
3, with nothing but water in his kennel,
got along well enough for about month,
and then died suddenly. We expected
him to remain about six weeks, but
think the death of the other dogs had a
effect on him. Now, it is
just as certain that the dog which died
with the Liebig's extract under his nose
was starved to death rs 1t is that dog
No. 2 died from the same cause"
