classed as part of his food) are also OBJ

tea and coffee. The drink failing is
particularly prevalent among the fe'
males. When person regards strong
tea or coffee as an absolute necessity
for meal, it is, in itself, bad sign.
An appetite for an unhealthy stimulus
is fastened on the stomach and the path
to disease is short and easy. Natures

nervousness, changing moods, and
tendency to enjoy other stimulants, such
as the most highly-seasoned foods and
condiments, and, not infrequentiy, in

It is often asked, when an ocean-go.

none Of her timbers rise to the surface

that if the vessel has been sunk in deep

iected will be so great that certain
quantity of water will be forced into the
pores of the wood, and thus render it 50
heavy that even when detached from
