sentative reelected from California, and
as there is no democratic Senator from that
State he is kept pretty busy in attending
to the numerous applications for Office from
California democrats. He is seen daily at
almost all the departments, urging the APP
pointment Of some good democrat to a place
now filled by a republican. In view of his
laborious work his lot is by no means hap

TIE CORRUPTION of the republican regime
Is gradually being developed by the investi-
gatious that have been instituted by the
democratic succession First the Navy, and
then the Agricultural Department were
fouod to be p-rmeated with fraud; and now
1t appears from the slip shod manner in
which the Treasury accounts have been
k-pt, that is as published and opened to
public inspection, that such manner was
adopted rather TO conceal fraud than to
afford the people the Information they de.
mand concerning the expenditure of the
money that ia exacted Of them.

Restaurant Walters Slang.


One morning recently a hungry pilgrim
ordered some toast, boiled potatoes,
poached eggs, a rare steak, and some hot
cakes. The water, Professor, Harris,
went to the kitchen and roared out to the
Chinaman; Gimme a graveyard stew,
potatoes in the dark, two men a horse
back, a moonlight on the lake and a fam
beau When the pilgrim heard this re-
markabIe order he incontinently fed
from the house, forgetting to take his hat
and muttering that he'd "be gol darned if
he proposed to tackle that kind of a
breakfast, and that if the people lived on
such things in this country he proposed
to return to Missouri
A reporter for The Inter Mountain,
who happened to be in the restaurant at
the time, approached the waiter and asked
for an explanation of the order, and the
professor gave the following version:
You see, he said, "we get tired of
commonplace, and besides. we try to
teach the Cinnamon the language a
graveyard stew means milk toast; potatoes
in the dark is boiled potatoes; eggs circus
style means scrambled eggs; rough and
ready means pork and means; a f1ambeau
is light, hot cakes, and moonlight on the
lake is rare beefsteak The walters all
have pet names for these things and we
throw potatoes at the China cooks till
they know what we mean.
Another boarder came in and the pro-
fesSor roared out with the voice of a
stentor: Gimme a saddle bags and a
springer, spuds on the side. tenpenny nails
and single to come a-runnin'. Then
the reporter followed in the wake of the
Missourian.

DIR. r. NJ Hodges once read paper
before the Boston Society for
Medical Improvement, in which he
touched on this question upon
which doctors disagree. and said:
Z" 1t is a common impression that to take
food immed .ately before going to bed and
answered b. a reminder that the instinct
of animals prompts them to sleep as soon
as they have eaten; and in summer an
meal is taken at midday, is a luxury In
of the evening meal is or z o'clock, and
an interval of twelve hours, or more,
elapses without food, and for persons
whose nutrition is at fault this is alto
gether too long period for fasting.
THAT such an interval without food is
permitted explains many restless night.
and much of the head and backache, and
the languid- half-rested condition on rising,
which is accompanied by no appetite for
breakfast. This meal itself often dissi-
pates these sensations 1t is, therefore,
desirable, if not essential, when nutriment
is to be crowded, that the last thing be-
fore going to bed should be the taking of
food SleeplessneSs is often caused by
starvation, and a lumber of milk, if
drunk in the middle of the night, will
often put people to sleep when hypnotics
would fail of their purpose Food before
rising is an equally important expedient
1t supplies strength for bathing and dress
ing, laborious and wearisome tasks for
the underfed, and is a better morning
pick me- up than any tonic.
