The Loisette EXPOSE.

There was meeting at Masonic Hall
last night the object of which was to ex-
pose Professor Loisette, who had class
here to whom he taught a system of
memorizing. Colonel Il. l.. Johnson,
chief clerk of the Senate, addressed the
meeting Professor G. S. Fellows, of the
High School, proceeded to show that
Professor Loisette was not the originator
of the system, and that DR.. Ed. Pick, an
eminent European scholar, deserved the
credit for it. II seems that Professor
Loisette had class of 200 here, who
paid So for the course, and bound them
selves not to reveal the system to out
siders. Resolutions were adoped, which,
while expressing no opinion derogatory
to the system taught by Professor Loi-
sette, stated the conviction that he
did not originate its essential features, as
they had long since been published or
taught by other writers. The resolu-
tions condemn Professor Loisette for pro-
Tossing originality, imposing secresy and
eXtortlng eXorbitant fees.

Gentlemen have fancies in dressing.
One goes for something showy, an
other expressly calls for a special

Healthful Bread.

In spite OF all that has been said on
the subject, people will eat bread made
from flour from which all the bran has
been removed. Nearly all the phos-
pilates, the most valuable elements for
the nutrition of the nerves and bones.
are thus removed, and it is also a rec
ognized fact amongst physicians that
great injury results in consequence.
Any preparations which will replace
these valuable elements are certsin to
be of great benefit to those who use
them, conpensating as they do, to q
great extent, for the absence of the
bran. A number of years ago Prof.
Horsford, of Cambridge, suggested the
use OF baking preparation for raising
bread, biscuit, etc., which would sup
ply the requisite phosphates, thereby
introducing these necessary elements
into the food without cost or trouble.
After years Of experiment and labor he
succeeded in producing the desired
preparation, and if report be true, h-
has succeeded wonderfully we'll in sell
ing it. The preparation consists of an
acid phosphate of lime which combin.
ed with bi-carbonate of soda in raising
bread. biscnit, etc, leaves in the pro-
duct the very phosphates required by
the system, and which are essential to
good health. The idea was an ingeni-
ons and valuable one, and needs only
to be thoroughly understood to be fully
appreciated. The well-known Rum
ford Yeast Powder is made according
to Prof. Ho,sford's directions, and is
positive evidence of the practicability
of his idea.

The Repentant Cardinal.
HOW THE CARDINAL PRIMATE OF PoR
rUGAL ExCoMMUNIoATED THE
WHOLE WORLD.

A good many years ago, while trav
cling in Portugal, arrived at plsc
called Lamego, situated in the Mort
ern portion of the kingdom and 10 th
centre of the district where the port.
wine grape is most extensively cult.
waited; it is also renowned, throughou
the peninsular, for excellence of il
hams, the hogs being fed principal
on acorns in the adjoining forest.
Seeing a cardinals hat hung up in tn.
principal church inquired whose i,
was, and apropos of this the verg, (,
told me a story.
1t seems that the Cardinal Arch.
bishop, in making a tour through the
kingdom, visited the town, ana at din
ner ate so much Lamego ham ano
drank such quantity of port win,,
that ne became son newhat inebriated,
and before retiring to rest tottered t.,
the balcony of his room In the inn and
called out with a stentorian voice:
"rutte 1 monde excommunioo, salyo
VINO di portoe presciutto di Lamego, =
u excommunicate the whole world ex
oePing port wine and Lamego ham),
and then his Emineuce went TO ben
and the whole world remained in o
state OF accommodation that nigh,
without being aware of it. On the
following morning. however, the ban
was removed, for the Cardinal was re-
minded by his suite of what he had
done aud he was compelled to proceed
again to the balcony and shout out;
"Iutto monde absolvo" U absolve
all the world. In penance he sent his
Cardinals hat to the church,
