Slow Eating.

The idea Of rest and recreation aud de-
Liberation in eating no longer occupies the
thought of the American boy, much less of
the business man. Yet the power of ones
life depends as much upon this as upon any
one conduct of life. The relation of the
chewing and the juices Of the mouth to the
after digestion, all along the digestive track,
and to that assimilation which is to give
force and vigor to work, is such that we
cannot afford to forget the essential relation
ship. The failure of this part of the ap-
paratus to do its part does not involve i'm
mediate loss of power or bedridden sickness,
but 1t is more frequent limitation upon
forceful life than any one disability. A
thorough digestion not only leaves the mind
clear and the nervous system placid, but so
provides the physical and mental machinery
with its propelling power as to make
thought as natural as lift were a physical
function. 1t is not difficult to see in the
work, as well as in the writings Of some
men, the traces of bad physical condition.
Emerson overstated the case when he stated
that the sick man is on the road to rascality,
but, nevertheless, did indicate what is true,
that a man in chronic state Of embarrassed
digestion is out of gear with himself and the
rest of mankind. We believe that the
foundation Of many an incapaci:y is laid in
this want Of quiet, deliberate Getting
dependent.

Washington Letter.
THE PRESIDENTS FIRST NEW YEARS RE-
CEPTIoN.
THE NEW SOCIAL LEADERS.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 4. 1856.
The new year was ushered in at the Capt.
tai with a reception at the White House Just
as old years have been for half century or
more. Mr.. Clevelands diplomatic. judicial,
congressional, military, naval, and civilian
callers of last Friday numbered about 5000
people. Much larger crowds have attended
previous New Year receptions, but this was
considered large enough by the host and his
assistants before ii was all over
After the official world had passed through
the parlors with their gilt and splendor of
attire, the public reception began. The
waiting crowd extended in line of two and
two from the eastern gate far down the
street in solid mass. When they had
streamed by the President for an hour the
appointed time for the reception to close
had arrived. Still they came and the Presi-
dent tried to be cheerful for half an hour
longer. The Cabinet ladies and Miss Cleve-
land, who had been receiving with him, had
deserted him about the time the officials had
been disposed Of. Tine ladies had gone to
their respective homes to look after their
own New Year callers, and the President
was left to meet the promiscuous throng
alone and single handed. He grew very
tired and hungry and finally asked how
much Of crowd was yet to come. Word
was brought him that there was long line,

Lighthouses of the Maine Coast.

The annual report of the Lighthouse
Board contains the subjoined information
and recommendations regarding these aids
to navigation on the Maine coast In this
district, which also includes the New Hamp-
shire coastline, there are fifty -four lighthous-
es and lighted beacons. ninety-three day or
unlighted beacons, ten fog signals operated
by steam or hot air engines, eight clock
work fog signals seven whistling buoys, ten
bell buoys and 4sl other buoys, and two
steamers.
At Iubec Narrows, the board renew their
recommendation of last year that light be
established at the entrance Of the channel at
a cost of $4,000.
At Libby Island, south end, entrance to
Machias Bay. an lS-!nch Ericsson engine,
operating third-class Daboll trumpet, ar
ranged to give blasts of seconds at inter
walls Of 40 seconds, was established Aug. l5,
1884
At Moose Peak Mistake Island, west en-
trance to Bay of Fundy, it is recommended
that the old tower, built in 1926, be replaced
by new one, to cost $4,000.
At Green Island the board renew their
recommendation of last year, that To aid
vessels making for Burnt Coat harbor, a
lighthouse be erected in place of the range
lights now in use. The estimated cost is
$4,000.
On the south end of Great Duck, or Long
Island. south of Mt. Desert, the board say
lighthouse or fog signal would greatly aid
commerce by guiding vessels caught in east
erIy gales into Bass ilarbor OF Southwest

Senator Logan's Workmanship.

Gen. Logan is very fond of outdoor
sports. He is an admirable horseman and
swordsman, and knows how to handle
rifle lie is one of the best pistol shots in
the country When down at the Hot
Springs Of Arkansas a few years ago, trying
to throw off peculiarly severe attack of
rheumatism. he astonished the pistol experts
of that pistoling country. On cne occasion
a dozen young men were practicing from the
piazza of the generals hotel at bottle laid
on the broad crotch Of distant tree The
bottle was round. Unless it was hit plump
ly in the middle it spun round like /. top
The young men were good shots, but now
and then they would miss the difficult mark
Then the invalid senator would chaff them
The Young men finally became irrtated, and
asked the general if he could improve upon
their skill. After little more chatting the
general said:
"Ill tell you fellows what | will do.
There are Twelve Of you, but I'll promise
you each box Of cigars every time you hit
the bottle if you'll promise me box every
time hit it,"
The boys accepted the proposition instant
an shoot first, and it hit it I'm to
shoot again and again until | miss" They
had no objection, so the general fred twelve
consecutive shots, each time breaking diff
ferent bottle, while the young mems eyes
opened wider and wider
''Do you want any more?" he asked, after
the twelfth shot.
"No," said the young men, hastily, guess
not"
"You can send those twelve boxes to nv
room whenever you are ready, gentlemen"
said the general, as he lounged away .Some
day when have more leisure I'll give you
an hours instruction in target shooting"
But the boys never held him to his prom
Use. They paid their bets, however, and af-
ter that did their practcing when the gen.
eral was not around.

probably thousand persons. He said
"Well, let item come. can stand it little
longer" They. did come for half an hour,
and then the mansion was closed and the
President went to lunch.
At one time during the reception Mr.
Cleveland shook hands for an hour aud forty
minutes at the rate of forty minute hy
actual count. At first the average did not
run thirty a minute, but lively airs by the
Marine band, which furnished music as usual
from the main ante-room. had the effect Of
quickening the movements Of the crowd
While one very livel, air was being played
the hand shakes ran up to filty-six, but only
for few minutes
The majority Of the feminine callers were
more intent upon gazing al the toilets Of the
new social leaders than anything else, and
amusing remarks were made about their
manner and demeanor Many thought the
ladies were stiff, ungracious, and lacking in
ease and others compared them disadvan-
tageousiy with some of their accomplished
predecessors. |; would be frivolous and
tedious to describe M.s Cleveland's recep-
ton dress. or those of Mrs. Manning, Mrs.
Whitney. Mrs Bayard, and Mrs. Villas, but
the Presidents attire was not elaborate.

in Your comments Dec "a. on the late VIM.
H. Vanderbilt. which hardly gives credit to
the man, and which wish you to publish
with the following account
Herein lies his great misfortune: he was
born and reared III aif'uence all his en-
vironments were gilt-edged; all his associs-
tons were such as are born Of wealth. OF
toe great big world, lis tolls and struggles.
its hopes and fears, its ambitions and aspira-
tons. its homes and its society, its real men
and lis noble women. he had bu, little bet
ter idea than if he had been reared on an
other planet. In short, he was not of the
people. and that is great misfortune
Wealth is good and greatly to be desired
but whoever obtains IT at the expense Of
separation in thought, feeling, purpose and
interest from the great masses Of the popu-
lation which constitute the real world paws
altogether too great price for what he OBJ
taIns and gets trash for what be pays.
