Tho Dictetic Philosophy of Soup"
IScientific Exchanged

It may be safely taken as stable
physiological fact that the stomach will
not SO readily digest solid substances
when there are taken alone as when
they arc preceded on the digestive jour
ney by SOUP. The bread which is eaten
with the soup will be converted into
dextrin in the mouth, and the essentials
of the soup. on reaching the stomach,
will apparently supply the little glands
of the organ with power to manu-
facture the pepsin of the gastric juica
in due quantity. i would seem, in
truth, as ii these glands demanded
nourishment and stimulation in their
own turn: and the soup, through its
containing abundance OF dissolved mat
tcrs, presents them with the where
withal from which to derive tho neces-
sary energy.
An Italian physician points out that
where the meat we eat is Juicy and ten
der the savory principles are readily ex-
tracted from it aud are thus seized by
the stomach without trouble. But il
the meat be tough and the reverse of
juvenile and juicy, It will, in consc
qncncc. be digested with difficulty. The
Frenchman, in this view Of matters, has
found By experience that he can the
more readily digest his tough meat ii
the meat is thoroughly boiled and if the
bread he added to the soup which forms
the introduction of his meals.

memphis Avalanche.
Our first impression Of the great gen
eral and great smoker was as prisoner,
after making tho forced march Grants

Lecs army. The imperturable face,
firm sit of saddle, square jaw, massive
lower face, unlit cigar. as be sat and

tiOns were making. made an impression,
although it was later of the Same day
that it was known that it was Grant
After the surrender, Grant rode by,
accomI anied by Washburnc, of Illinois,
and some 'onfederates. To some re-
mark, some gnsh, we suspect, by 4 Con-
fcderate, Washburne replied with some
other gush which just at that gushing
moment Of defeat, was thought to be a
very fine sentiment, II am proud of my
gallant countrymen of both Sides
The silent smoker rode without a
word, his cigar still unlit, and perhaps
the same he had in the morning, still
between his teeth. There was an ap-
pearance Of firmness about the man and
about everything about him. The cigar
seemed to be fast rooted in the man, the
man in his saddle, the saddle to the
horse the horse to the solid earth. We
never forgot the impression of power,
or that there was with it an expression
Of simple good will and kindness, which
was as distinctive q trait as firmness
without severity. Of the cigar we had
never heard; but it made an impression.
Grant is not all of Grant without it.

IRrooklyn Eay!c.


A movement is at present going on in
the interior of Russia which may ulti-
matcly have consequences of utmost i'm
portance, and that is the spread of a
kind Of russian religious reformation.
For some time past secession from the
Orthodox Greek church has been re-
markably active, and scarcely q day
passes without the new sects receiving 4
large accession Of followers. The
government does all it can to discourage
the reformation. even to the extent of
closing numerous petty posts throughout
the empire to all except the Orthodox
church. Nevertheless, undeterred even
by this modified form of persecution,
the religious movement is obviously
gazing strength. The new sects. it
must he mentioned, are not hostile to
the Russian government: but. nnfortu-
nately for them, hercSy is regarded in
Russia as kind Of high treason.
