In feeding bulky food the object is
rs much to distend the stomach and
separate the concentrated food rs to
afford nourishment. This gives the
gastric juice free circulation through
the contents of the stomach, and the
food is properly digested and applied
to the needs of the body, instead of
causing fever by remaining in the
stomach.-Farm Field and Fireside.

Effects of temperature.
Nature


The effects of temperature on man
do not depend so much on the mean
for the day, months, or years, as on
extremes, as when the days are hot
and the nights comparatively cool the
energy of the system becomes partial
ly restored, so that residence near
the sea, or in tho vicinity of high
mountains, in hot climates, is, other
things being eqdal, less enervating
than IN the plains, as the night air
is generally cooler, 1t is commonly
believed that hot climates are neces-
sarily injurious to Europeans, by
causing frequent liver arrangements
and diseases, dysentry, cholera, and
fevers. This, however, is, to a GER
tain extent, a mistake, as the recent
medical statistical returns over our
army in India show that in the new
barracks, with more careful super
vision as regards diet and clothing,
the sickness and death rates are much
reduced Planters and others, who
ride about good deal, as a rule keep
in fairly good health, but the chill
dren of Europeans certainly degen-
crate, and, after two or three genera
tons, die out unless they intermary
with natives and make frequent visits
to colder climates. This fact shows
that hot climates, probably by inter
fering with the due performance of
the various processes concerned in the
formation of tke bodily tissues, even
tually sap the foundations of life
among Europeans, but how far this
result has been caused by bad habits
as regards food, exercise, and self
indulgence / can not say. Rapid
changes of temperature in this coun-
try are often very injurious to the
young and old, causing diarrhea and
arrangements of the liver when great
heat occurs, and inflammatory dis
eases of the lungs, colds, etc, when
the air becomes suddenly colder, even
in summer.

Democratic state Convention

THE democratic state convention
met at Madison, on the 10th, and put In
nomination the following state ticket:
For governor, Nicholas ID. Fratt, of
Racine county.
For Lieut-governor, Alfred C. Park
inson, of Columbia county.
For secretary of state, Hugh j. Gal
lagher, of La Fayette county.
For state treasurer, Frank H. Falk,
of Milwaukee.
For insurance commissioner, Ole S.
Holum, of Dane county.
For railroad commissioner, Conrad
Krez, of Sheboygan county
For attorney general, Willis G.. Sill
verthorn, of Marathon county.
For state uperintendent, Warren, ID.
Parker, of Pierce county.
The convention adopted the following
platform.
RESOLVED, That for the protection of
those who deposit their money in cor
porate, partnership, or private banks
in behalf of sound and legitimate
banks and bankers, who are brought
into disrepute by shysters assuming their
name, and in the interest of the whole
people, we demand that the next legis-
lature pass a law providing for the ex-
animation of such banks, at least once
each six months, by competent person,
and prescribe rules and regulations there
for.
RESOLVED, That we hold it is unjust
to place the labor of prison convicts lis
competition with any Of the manufac-
turing industries of this state, and de-
mand that the prison contract system be
abolished.
RESOLVED, That we recognize the
right, yea, the duty Of society to guard
and protect itself, by proper and suit
able legislation, against the evils result
ing from the excessive use of intoxica-
ting liquors; but we do not believe in
sumptuary laws, prohibition or equiva-
lent measures to be either adapted TO
that end or promotive of a higher
standard of morality On the contrary,
we hold, with Gov. Cleveland that such
legislation would be unwise and vex-
atious.
RESOLVED, That we are opposed to
the further sale of public lands suitable
for agricultural purposes, except to
actual settlers.

THE wisdom of notrelaXing sanitary
precautions against cholera in New
York as amply attested by the news
from Europe. Although the epidemic
in the southern seaports Of France has
so far decreased as only to effect in q
relatively slight degree the general
mortality statistics, yet there is every
indication that it viii be still some
time before it finally disappears from
French soil. 1t is now we'll on to
three months since the first case APP
pcared at Toulon, and rather less time
since the outbreak reached Marseilles.
That the epidemic would never have
attained anything like the proportions
it has done had the authorities at the
former city been better prepared to
cope with it, and had they not sought
to keep the matter a profound secret,
may safely be assumed, although it
may be questioned whether amy sub
sequent effort would have awaited to
arrest the progress of the scourge once
1t had established a firm hold i'm such
sanitary towns as .Toulol and Mar
settles. There is, i'm fact as far as
those towns are concerned, not much
doubt thatthe pestilence had virtually
spent lis force rather than been check
cd, and although the death rate has
Auctuated and may continue to
change according as the weather
changes, it is in the highest degree
improbable that there viii be amy re.
currence to the death rate OF month
ago.
But the cholera is only shifting Ms
quarters-pot, however, to any APP.
preciable extent in our direction. We
read in our recent dispatches that IN
the PyreHccs Orientales, a department
with a total population less than that
of Marseilles, the death rate is and
mas been Tor some days past sufficient
ly serious, and, what is worse Mon
days returns are much higher than
they have been at any period since it,
advert in that district. In ltaly-or,
at all events, in the northern portion
Of the Peninsula-the outlook is
scarcely less serious, and this notwith
standing the elaborate quarantine
precautions that were instituted al
the epidemic first declared itself ii
France.

PROF. SANBORT gives statistics to
show that, as a people; we eat less
pork than we did twenty or thirty
years ago-ohe reason being that our
people are not lard eaters-thaL grease
is not the natural companion of wealth
and culture. 1t may be added here
that western horses are considered
less able to stand work on pavements
than Canadian horses Of the same
weight, and that in the eastern mar
kets this is attributed to the general
use in the west Of corn as food for the
young horses, while oats and peas are
fed mostly in Canada, the last being a
food which gives a better muscular
development.
