FoOD, EXERCEEE AND BREATH.-" After
a meal" says Brooklyn physician, g if
you feel drowsy and sleepy, you may be
sure YOU have eaten TO much Oh course,
IF man has been performing excessive
bodily labor, he will have the same feeling.
But us a general thing the rule Of drowsi-
ness is good one to follow Before and
after meal there should be an hours rest
before any severe bodily exercise is per
formed. We need from six to eight hours
sleep night, with two or three hours cx-
ira one night week. The relief for men,
tai strain is bodily exercise. You have no
doubt noticed how much inclined people
are to go to sleep in church, no matter
how good the sermon. 1t il all owing to
the bad ventilation. Cooper Institute, in
New York, is the only large hall | know
of that is properly ventilated. There is a
little auger-hole under each seat, and
through this, by means of diminu-
tive pipes, the cool air is brought
into the hall 1t comes like
fine spray, furnishing oxygen,
but not causing any cold drafts 1t is i'm
peratiyely important to have well yenti-
lated sleeping rooms. If you awake in the
morning and find you have headache
and bad taste in your mouth, be assured
the room is badly ventilated. You need
three thousand cubic feet of air an hour
1t is fault with Americans to have their
sleeping-rooms too hot. 1t is as absurd to
have them like ice, but it would be well if
we could have them warm when we 90 to
bed, cool during the night, and warm again
in the morning

WHY COFFEE Is so LITTLE USED IN
CANADA.-Thc French and the Ameri-
cans are perhaps the greatest cofiesdrink-
ers in the world We in Canada are not
in the habit Of using nearly 50 much COT
fee relatively, as is done across the lines ;
We are tea-drinkers rather. Commenting
upon the fact, n French Journal SAYS: " The
reason Of this is that pure coffee IS so little
used. Most Of our coffee and spice dealers
pnt forth, under the name of coffee" Il
strange mixture, sometimes unpalatable,
more or less mhealthful. The reports of
our public analyst tell how seldom they
find cofiees genuine. II is not difficult to
see, therefore, why the consumption of COT
fee does not increase among Us. But since
the introduction of the pure coliees we be-
gin to appreciate the aroma, the flavor, the
stimulus of real coffee. u Monetary

Bounty on BEET-RooT SUGAR.-An
Act, dated November s, 1884, was passed
by the General Assembly Of New Zealand,
entitled "An Act to Encourage the Pro-
duction Of Sugar from Beet-root and Sor-
ghum," by which it was enacted that the
Colonial Treasurer shall, out of the con-
solidated fund, pay to the person produc-
ing the same one haiipenny per pound on
the first thousand tons of sugar produced
from beet.root or sorghum grown in this
Colony" Provision is also made that for
fifteen years no excise duty shall be
levied on such colonial-grown sugar, while
the present import duty of one halfpenny
per pound continues. If the import duty
is increased, an excise duty may be levied
so that it be a halfpenny per pound less
than the import duty; and if the import
duty is removed, halfpenny per pound
shall be paid as bonus to the producer

Tho Tail and Muscles OF the Whale.

The power Of this tremendous propul-
sorry apparatus is almost beyond concep-
| ton. The weight Of fuil-grown whale
may be appreciated when the reader re-
| fleets that the famous elephant Jumbo :"
would have to be multiplied many times
before his weight would equal that of a
large whale. Yet the late Captain Scott,
Royal Navy, told me that when On the
| quarter deck his own ship he repeatedly
saw the whales lcaping III mere play so
| high out Of the water that the horizon
was clearly visible under them Now,
| Captain Scott lived to be nearly 100 years
! old, and when he was IN active service the
| quarter deck Of il man-of-war was at least
! thirty feet above the water; add to this
measurement his own hight Che being
rather tail NAM, and the reader can
! then appreciate the terrible power of the
animals tail. | may here mention that
this habit Of springing out of the water is
called " preaching" by whalers. Besides
the great muscular apparatus which has
just been mentioned, the whale possesses
another muscle which surrounds the body
ii is scientifically and happily called the
pImnicIllus carnosus Or fleshy rag"
and is developed in various ways
according to the animal 1t is
with this muscle that the dog shakes
his skin when he comes out Of the water.
The hedgehog has i. very powerfully de-
yeloped in order.to enable it to coil itself
! into the spiky ball with which We are so
familiar The manis, armadillo and
| echidna also possess it and use it for a SIM
liar purpose. Man has but very little Of
it, the chief vestiges being the muscles of
the face, which give to the human coun-
| tenance its changing expressions. The
whale wants it for two purposes. He
wants it TO enable him to bend his body
function easily observed in the dolphins
as they curve their graceful course through
the sea; but chiefly he needs it because by
contracting it he can make his body heavier
than corresponding bulk of water. This
he has no difficulty in doing, and when he
wishes 10 seek the surface he has only to
relax the pressure, when the body regailrs
its original size and becomes lighter than
the proportionate bulk of water. BY
means OF this same muscle the hippopota
mus, the elephant and the seal can sink
themselves below the surface and rise
again without moving limb. For want
OF it man cannot perform this feat, and
the best swimmers in the world would not
be able to sink and rise again to the sur
face without moving hand or foot Rev.

And the sound of q merry lauSh,

Since Congress closed its work capitalists
and spectators who are large holders of
trade dollars have been active in trying to
profitably get rid of their deprecated
property. 1t is well known that numerous
bankers, brokers and private individuals
| have been for year or more buving in
and boarding up immense quantities of the
coin, in the hope that Congress would re-
deem them at par, and that thus Il hand
some fortune would be speedily realized.
This hope has now been crushed beyond
all chance of resurrection, and the result
is that on Wall street to-day business in
! trade dollars is more active than it has
been for years. From 1873 TO 1876, when
these dollars were legal tenders, their
| coinage amounted to 100000, and
since then about 100000 ad-
ditional have been coined. There
are now in circulation in China in the
neighborhood OF 100000 American
trade dollars, and the remaining
100000 are in the hands of Ameri-
can bankers, brokers and capitalists
with the exception of Il small amount
which is held in Europe. Our trade dol
lar has had a remarkable career At first
it sold for 81 Is then the drop in silver
bullion in 1876 brought it down to 81 OF,
the resumption of specie payments in 1876
brought it to par, and since then it has
shown steady depreciation. A large
clothing house in Philadelphia, which has
been taking these dollars at par in their
business when they were quoted at 90 and
under, is said to hold 100000. They
will lose very. heavily. Many manufact-
uring firms in this city and suburbs who
purchased large quantities two years ago
topay their employees salaries, find the
deprecated coin a drug on their hands.
They will be losers. A wealthy butcher
in Brooklyn, who has been holding the
coin in hopes of favorable Congressional
action will be bitten badly. The bankers
will not suffer seriously, as they hold the
money in most instances for customers
