Eating Lemons.

A good deal has been said through
the papers about the healthfulness of
lemons. The latest advice is how to
use them so they will do the mos
good, as follows: Most people know
the benefit of lemonade before break
fast, but few know that it is more than
doubled by taking another at night al
SO. The way to get the better of the
bilious system without blue pills or
quinine is to take the juice of one, two
or three lemons, as appetite Graves, in
as much ice water as makes it pleas
ant to drink without sugar before go
ing to bed. In the morning, on rising,
at least a half hour before breakfast,
take the juice of one lemon in a goblet
of water. This will cure the system of
humor and bile with efficiency, without
any of the weakening effects of Gallo
mel or Congress water. People should
not irritate the stomach by eating lem
ons clear; the powerful acid of the
juice, which is always most corrosive,
invariably produces Inflammation after
awhile, but, properly diluted, SO that it
does not burn or draw the throat, it
does its medical work without harm,
and, when the stomach is clear offood,
has abundant opportunity to work
over the system thoroughly, says a
medical authority.

panic. The seconds conferred, got the

acknowledged his social and gustatory
equality.
But when we thought about it next
day it looked to us like a surrender.
We made tacit agreement to fight,
and as a matter of fact six other duels
came off that fall-three in Pensacola,
one near New Orleans, and one or two
in Havana. Judson wasn't scratched,
except by pick in the cheek with a
sword, but he wounded four out of tie

Challenging Thirteen Midshipmen.

eve were all boys together them"
said Admiral -, ''but Judson was
the youngest of the lot, and ought to
have received more consideration. He
was only Is years old when he was

an officer. That's what made the

their fathers were rich, or distinguish

plebeian, and he wouldn't have it, and
when he was assigned to the Levant we
revolted against the intruder. Three
or four stood by the boy, including past
midshipman, now Admiral Murray, but
thirteen of US cut him dead and gave
notice that we would not mess with
him. We were not a little astonished
next day when he sent us thirteen chal-
lenges to fight him under the rules of
the dueling code. There was no such
thing as declination known among
gentlemen, but several of the officers
whom he had challenged reconsidered
the grounds of their refusal to mess
with him and withdrew their objec-
tons. By the time we had reached
Florida cit was in 1856 only seven of

or an animosity to crafty, pours his
tale into the scribe's ear with the
hope that the same will be published
