Something About Foods.
From Demorest's Monthly.l

Some physicians say that the value
of oils as food are not as we'll under
stood by the moderns as by the
ancients. Olive oil, mutton fat, and
other oleaginous substances formed
a large part of the dietary of the
Greeks, Romans, and other ancient
nations. Chemically, the constitu-
ton of oil is the same as sugar-they
are both hydrocarbons, and in the
animal economy perform the same
function. The ancients not only
swallowed oil but rubbed it on the
body after bathing. This practice,
which was called Injunction" has
been revived recently with happy re-
suits. Physicians even 60 so far as to
introduce oil into the system by by
podermic injections, that is, by per-
forations in the skin. Many stom-
achs reject oil, but the system will
often absorb it when rubbed on the
body, or elected under the skin by the
hypodermic syringe. The good effects
of cod-liver oil for consumptives and
delicate persons has long been recog-
nized. Diabetes, who cannot take
sugar, find oil very Strengthening, be-
cause probably Of the fact that it sup
plies the same chemical constituents
to the system that sugar does. An
other point with regard to diet has
been brought out at recent confer
ence of physicians in New York. Deli
cate persons with weak stomacns will
sometimes find it to their advantage
to eat but little at time but to take
food often. Six and even seven meals
day are not too much if the food is
well chosen and the meal is not too
hearty.

Very COMPLICATED.

The attitude of the Spanish government
toward Germany, since the seizure of the
Caroline Islands by the latter, has created
much adverse criticism throughout Spain,
and the conciliatory course taken by Al
fonso is condemned on all sides. 1t is ru-
mored that Alfonso has written an auto
graph letter asking the mediation of Prince
Frederick William, of Prussia, and that
King Leopold, of Belgium, and Emperor
Francis Joseph have also been asked to act
as arbitrators. The Spanish government
has closed the doors Of the Army and Navy
Club, at Madrid, because members of the
organization have returned their German
decorations, and because the club has
stricken from its lists ofhonorary members
all German officers, including the crown
prince. Seven papers belonging to the OPP
position have been seized and will be pros
ecuted for bitter attacks on Germany. The
feeling in German official circles is that the
differences between the two governments will
be settled amicably.

ing Police Officers McWatt and Grant, two
Of the three officers who constitute the po-

neighborhood, given in quick succession at
about midnight, but no investigation was
made, and the two bodies were found where
they fell, by party of merry makers on
their way home, about 1 o'clock. There is
no clue to the murderers, but it is thought
the men were shot by burglars whom they
had surprised and attempted to capture

FIGURES show that in Ohio mar
riage is on the decline in proportion to
population. During the year preced-
ing the war there were upwards of 3d.
900 marriages in the state out of a
population of 2,34O,OOO. The war
ran the number down to an average of
$4,000. When the boys came march
ing home the faithful girls found
husbands at a rapid rate, the number
of marriages running up to 3O,479
the first year. From that time up to
1878 the average was about $4,000
yearly. The panic of the latter year
caused dropto $4,000. The revival
of business in 1882 brought the num-
Der again to $4,000, but it has since
dropped back to 29,7OO. From these
facts it appears that if the ante-bellum
ratio OF marriages to population had
continued, Ohio would now have 49,
500 marriages a year, but the average
for the last five years has been only
$4,000. The chief cause assigned for
this decrease in marriage is eXtrava-
CANT notions as to the necessities of a
respectable household. The average
young man is incapable Of earning
money enough to keep up such an es-
Establishment as his social circles de-
mand.

THERE seems to be sufficient ground
for fearing that the cholera has now
gained such Roadway in the south Of
France as to render it's spread among
the rural classes almost a certainty.
Refugees from Marseilles and other
seaports are carrying infection into
the interior, where those whose char
ity or avarice leads them to shelter
the unfortunates become themselves
victims of the plague. Already, sew
eral of the inland towns begin to re-
port the number OF new cases
and deaths. 1t is true that last
year, for some reason the dis
ease made comparatively small
progress in the districts away from
the Mediterranean; but escape then is
not a guarantee Of immunity now. If
the rural communities do suffer this
year, they can remember that, had
Marseilles taken warning from 1884
and cleaned itself, all might now be
well.

THE world will soon know whether
or not loaded ships can be safely and
profitably lifted out of their element
and carried across an isthmus upon a
railway. Vessels plying between the
Gulf of St. Lawrence and the ports OF
our northeastern seaboard are now
compelled, of course, to go around the
peninsula of Nova Scotia. About 800
miles would be saved if they could use
a canal across the narrow neck that
connects that peninsula with the
mainland of ewBrunswick. 1t was
once proposed that a canal should be
made there, but now ship railway is
to be built on the line of the proposed
waterway. Work has already been
begun upon this railway, and it will
be carried on by an English company
whose president is Lord Brabourne,
and whose chief engineer is John Fowl
er, who built the London Underground
Railroad. 1t may be that Capt. Eads
will find by and by in the Dominion
the strongest of arguments to support
his project for an interoceanic ship
railway on the Isthmus of Tehuante-
nee

MOntreaI'S Endemic.

On the 2Sth a meeting was held in the

Montreal for the purpose of devising the
best means for combining the smallpox cpl
demic now raging in that city. The meet
ing was attended by some of the ablest
medical men on both sides of the
line, and by representatives OF all
the leading railroads entering Mon
treal. 1t was decided to adopt every
possible safeguard for the confinement of
the disease within it's present narrow linn

abatement OF the epidemic, there being only
nineteen fresh cases reported on the above

THE TRTSH LEAGUE,
1T is Not Dead, by Any Means-Wha
President Egan Says.

President Egan Says.
OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 25.-Patrick Egan,
president of the Irish National League
of America, in an interview, to-day,
regarding the charge that the League
has degenerated into a mere political
machine, and is therefore Virtually
dead, says:
While l was in New York, accepted the
presidency Of the League, and thenceforth,
while holding that position, Twas precluded
from taking part in politics, whatever my
political opinion may have been. I main
tanned that position throughout the last
presidential campaign, and intend to main
tain the same attitude SO long as I am
president of the League. That the League
is dead is altoge3k-2 a mistaken idea. We
now have nearly 600 branches scattered
over the country. All of them will be in
active working condition at the time of the
national convention to be held in Chicago
next January, which will be the largest
ever held in America, possibly with the ex-
ception of that Of 1881, also held in Chi
cago. Parnell will probably be in attend
ance. He has promised to comeif possible.
T. D. Sullivan, of Dublin, is also expected.
Sullivan will take his seat as mayor of
Dublin on January /. Two or three other
prominent members of the Irish National
Party are expected

TONTINE INSURANCE.
Report of an Ohio Legislative COMMITTEE
AppOinted to Investigate 1t.

appointed to investigate 1t.
COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 28.-The special
committee appointed by the last Leg
misunderstanding of Senators White,
Wolcott and Gable, together with
State Insurance Superintendent Rein
mund and Actuary Homans-reported
yesterday in voluminous document.
The report consists Of two separate
papers, one signed by Senators White,
Cable and Wolcott; the other by
Messrs Reinmund and Romans. The
first report holds that this form of in
surance is profitable to the holders OF
policies who are PERSISTENT in payment,
and says that the controversy about
the tontine plan is caused by the mis-
trust of companies and the alleged mis-
application of surplus tontine funds
on the part of insurance companies.
They say they cannot condemn ton
tine or semi-tontine insurance without
condemning all speculation, which is
not done. They find that it is no
more gambling than any other specu-
lative business, but say that persons
who oppose speculation on moral
grounds would naturally oppose ton
tine insurance. The report of Insur-
ance Commissioner Reinmund and
State Actuary Romans unreservedly
and unequivocally indorses the ton
tine plan of insurance. These commit
tees have been engaged most of the
summer on this work of investigating,
having visited all Eastern and West
ern cities where tontine companies are
located.

UNDER the operation of the civil SER
vice rules the number of women en-
ployed in the departments at Wash
ington is being steadily reduced. When
a place becomes vacant by the death
or resignation of woman clerk, the
head OF the division asks for a man to
take her place, and the Civil Service
Commission acts accordingly. All the
chiefs of divisions are opposed to the
multiplication Of women in the offices,
not because they can complain of the
ork done by well qualified women,
but because, as one of them says, they
"use the arts and privileges of their sex
to get out of work altogether" Inone
division, out of sixty-fve leaves of alb
sanee that exceeded sixty days in a
year, forty-nine were obtained by

A SECOND case Of cholera is reported
from England, and a few more cases
would do a great deal to dispel those
apprehensions Of the spread of the dis
ease which have been industriously
circulated by the alarmists. The viru-
lence Of the epidemic in Spain has not
been more strongly marked than it's
confinement to a well defined locality
It has attacked Marseilles for the Sec
ond time, but it has not spread to
points ten miles away from Marsellles.
It is, of course, possible that cholera
can find a lodgment in England, and
it is also possible that it may reach
this country. But after it has shown
during two successive seasons a re-
fusal to spread beyond strictly de-
fined locality, it is not at all likely
that it will spread.

Rescue of an Il-used Girl by the HUI
name Society.
CHICAGO, H., Aug. 25. Justice Wood
mans court was crowded to suffoca
ton at noon, when the case of the
Ducrows, husband and wife, the
trapeze performers arrested at the
State Street theater, few nights ago,
for abusing and ill-treating Mercedenz
Cosuso, the Cuban Wonder" trapeze
performer, aged u years, came
up for final hearing. The trio
were arrested when about to
leave for Milwaukee, where they had
an engagement this week. The child
was produced in court with it's body
covered with bruises, the result OF
whipping. On one hip is a. large black
and blue spot which the Ducrows claim
was caused by a trapeze fall. In court
the DucroWs protested that the child
had been given to their care by her
parents, and vigorously denied
any cruelty. The Humane Society
finally abandoned the charge OF
inhuman conduct, and Judge
Woodman fined the Ducrows $50
for violation of the city ordinance
forbidding the jeopardizing on the
stage of the life of any child under IA
years. The child was given in charge
Of the Humane Society. It is not yet
determined what disposition to make
of her. She will probably be placed in
public institution. The justice sub
sequently suspended the fine on the
Ducrows, and they left for Milwaukee
this afternoon.
