HIS Fav0rite.

"a love for the animal kingdom
is common to everybody" said a
Sunday-school talker. "Some peo-
pie love birds, others like dogs,
horses, goats, etc., and it is quite
proper that they should do so. l
suppose every little boy and girl
here loves some dumb creature bet
ter than all others. Don't you my
little friends?"
All hands went up.
"That's right, and I am glad to
see it. 1t shows that you have
hearts full of love for the poor crea-.
lures who have not been blessed
with reason and other precious
gifts like yourselves. Now, toll
iustrate a point, 1 am going to ask
some little boy to tell me what his
favorite is among the domestic ami.
mails. Alb, thanks. This little boy
shall answer. What do you like
best, nv little man. Speak out
loud, so that all may hear you"

dows rattle and put the audience

Slow Eating.

The idea of rest and recreation
and deIiberation in eating no longer
occupies the thought of the Amerl.
can boy, much less of the business
man. Yet the power of ones life
depends as much upon any one con.
duct of fife. The relation of the
chewing and thejuices ofthe mouth
to the after digestion, all along the
digestive tack, and to that assim-
ilation which is to give force and
vIgor to work, is such that we can
not afford to forget the essential re-
lationship. The failure of this part
of the apparatus to do it's part does
not involve Immediate loss of pow
er or bedridden sickness, but it is
more frequent limitation upon
forceful life than any one disabili-
ty. A thorough digestion not only
leaves the mind clear and the ner-
vous system placid, but so provides
the physical and mental machinery
with its propelling power as to
make thought as natural as if il
were physical function. 1t is not
difficult to see in the work, as we'll
as in the writings Of some men, the
traces OF a bad physical condition
Emerson overstated the case when
he stated that the sick man is on
the road to rascal,ty, but, neyerthe
less, did Indicate what is true, that
a man in chronic state of embar
raised digestion is out of gear with
himself aud the rest of mankind
We believe that the foundation o.
many an incapacity is laid in THU
want Of quiet, deliberate eating.
