We hear that the late town election in
LIE Roy was not strictly in accordance
with the law, and new election may be
necessary. The difficulty, as near as we
can learn, is, the judges of election we're
candidates for Office. There are many
points about the new law, that we fear
have been overlooked, and may be the
means of causing considerable annoy
ance. The new law is lame one in
many respects, and should have re-
hearing at the next legislature.

Ice Water.

Ice-water as cooling beverage is a
snare and a delusion. A glassful of
it is just as bad as a plate of ice-cream
taken after & meal, because the diges-
tive process has to be suspended
until the temperature of the stomach
has been raised to the proper pitch.
Cool water is always more effective
in allaying thirst than ice-cold water.
The latter may increase the thirst,
and it does increase the heat of the
body. Cool water may be INDUCED
in without fear of bad results, but the
ice-cold article is always dangerous.
"The quickest and surest way to
cool the body is to take glass of hot
lemonade or hot water. 1t is instant
ly absorbed, and in a few minutes it
is being evaporated from the surface
of the body. Evaporation you know
produces GOODNESS. The hot draughts
also act as tonics to the stomach and
remove the sense ofthirst. u

The Diet of Different People.

Philadelphia Medical Register.
The vagaries of the appetite are far
beyond the explanatory science of
physiology. What we call tolerance
in medicine is in itself mystery.
We cannot tell why this thing agrees
with this individual and at the same
time utterly destroys his brother. The
trite old saying that one mans meat
is another mans poison must be ac-
cepted empirically. Still less can we
account for the variations of taste.
Why one mans gustatory nerve
should respond agreebly to salt, while
another repels it with violence, we
cannot understand. Doubtless, edu-
cation has most to do with it, and yet
the manner in which education oper-
ates continues mystery. The pref
erence of the Chinese for food that
seems to our appetites absolutely dis
gushing is we'll known. In Canton,
rats sell for fifty cents a dozen, and
dogs hind quarters command a high
er price than lamb or mutton. Fancy,
eating birds nests worth $50 pound !!
This is what mandarin revels in.
The French have beguiled us into
eating frogs legs, which were once
tabooed in this country, and we have
even come to esteem diseased goose
liver in the form of pate de .toie 9raS.
The writer has met Brazilians who
rave over boa constructor steaks, and
count monkeys and parrots very
good meal. In the West Indies,
baked snake is a common dish, as the
reptiles abound, and it is good way
of getting rid of them. But when it
comes to frying palm worms in fat,
one would think the stomach would
rebel. 1t is not SO, however, though,
by a strange Inconsistency, stewed
rabbit is looked upon with disgust.
On the Pacific coast the Digger In
dians eat dried locusts, and in the
Argentine Republic skunk flesh is a
dainty. Our own favorite bivalve,
the oyster, is very disgusting to a
Turk, while the devil fish, eaten in
Corsica, is equally so to us. We can
not understand, either, how the in
habitants of the West Indies and the
Pacific coast can eat lizards eggs
with a relish still less, how the eggs
of the turtle and alligator can be.

Brazilians eat ants, probably to get

country, and are ofan enormous size
