FROM THE BUFFALO (S. ~ EUws
Nothing better illustrates thcwisdom
of nature than do the food products Of
different countries, each meeting the
personal requirements Of the nature
race. In the Arctic regions hcat.p
ducing dict, is of course, needed, and
this is supplied by the Seal, the Cod
and other fish. Without considering
that the same conditions do not exist
elsewhere, and simply noticing that an
EsquimauX will get fat upon blubber
or a Norwegian upon Cod, men have
agreed that Cod Liver Oil would restore
any waste going on in the physical sys-
TEN and IL has been largely recon-
mcnded by the medical profession
Experience has, however, shown that
this oil has no nutrtive power and that
besides having this negative character,
the accumulation of fatty matter which
follows its use deranges the alimcntary
canal. Any kind of oil is trying to the
stomach even when the system is in
healthy condition, and how much more
must II be when the digestive organs
are weak and are dosed with something
of the most unpalatable character. The
quantity of Cod Liver Oil which is or
dered TO be taken daily is always in eX-
cess of the capacity for digestion and
absorption and injurious results nat
urally follow. In fact, we would hear
of more cases in which serious harm
has been caused by Cod Liver Oil were
II not that In order to be able to swal-
low 1t the patient mixes it with whiskcy
and the alcohol thus taken to certain
extent ncutrali2cs the evil done by the
oil. II Is fact laid down by all chem
| lists and scientists that nothing will
restore disordcred system or promote
digestion which has been impaired
quicker ormore effectively than alcohol
and as this is what medical
men aim at In their treatment of
the sick it follows that they are
now largely prescribing simply a
| pure whiskcy and disseminating the
use of Cod Liver Oil entirely. None
of these so.cailcd Cod Liver Oils pretend
TO have more than 80 per cent. and
some of II only 20 per cent of pure oil,
and some of it is shark Oil which has
been tried and has been found to have
no remedial effects, in fact it is found
more injurious than the Cod Oil. Two
ounces alcohol contains more nutriment
than is found in twelve ounces of lean
meat, besides it is the only medicinal
article that enters the blood direct
without requiring any digestive effort
on the part of the stomach, while Cod
Liver Oil as stated is 50 indigestiblc as
to neccssitatc the employment of other
agents to aid its assimilation, and rs d
consequence leaves the stomach, which
of consumption patient is always
weak, in a weaker condition than ever
We would advise our readers to try
whskcy alone for awhile, being care
full however, to see that it is absolutely
pure and free from fusel oil and made
from malt, which latter is the only
whiskey which combines food
quality with Il stmulant

A Texas Landlord who was Decpl,
Interested I'm His Newspaper.

" lcNhS Landlord VINO was Decply
Interested in His Newspaper.
Says the Chicago Ledgor: \ traveller
landed at II wayside tavern in Texas
early one morning, and after sitting
around without discovering any signs
of breakfast until an appetite like II
mustard plaster began gnawing he
walked up to the landlord, who was
behind the counter bent nearly double
over a newspaper, i'm which he was
tracing the lines of thrilling romance
with his forcfnger as he pulled away
at an old cob pipe.
"What time do you have breakfast"
he said.
The landlord groancd but did not
look up. The traveller raised his voice
a notch or two and repeated:
when do you have breakfasts"
The man behind the bar never
moved The traveller thumped on the
counter with his knuckles to attract
attention, and again said much louder
than before;
when do you have breakfasts"
"IIchY" said the landlord, with his
face still buried in the newspaper.

"Well, then, I'd like to have you
tell me who's running this tavern.
The old man raised his head, gave
the stranger look that made his
flesh creep, and said:
"Well, sometimes the niggers run IT,
sometimes the old woman gives il a
