costly food, causes exceptions to the rule.
Taking the Torld through, however the
poorer communities and CLASSES Of people
almost universally select those loocs
which chemical analysis shows 10 supply
the actual nutrients at the lowest cost.
But, unfortunately, the proper pNpor-
tons Of the nutrients IN their oietaries are
often ycry detective. Thus in portions Of
India and China rice, in northern Italy
maize meal, In certain districts Of Ger
many and in some regions AMI seasons In
Ireland potatoes, and among the pco-
whites of the southern United States
maize meal and bacon, make large part
Of the sustenancc Of the people. These
foods supply the nutrients in the cheapest
forms, but they ere all deficient in pro.

i'll nourished, and suffer physically, intel
lectuaiiy and morally thereby.
On the other hand the Scotchman, rs
shrewd in his diet as in his dealings, finds
most economical supply Of protein IN
oatmeal, paddock and herring; and the
thrifty inhabitants of New England sup
plement the fat Of their pork with the
protein of beans and the carbohydrates Of
potatoes, ard supplement maize and
wheat -four with the protein Of Goldfish

largely upon such Frugal but rational
diets, are well nourishcd, physically

From the Boston Evening Gazette.
Old Billy B. was a pious man,
And heaven was his goal;
For, being a very saving man,
OF co urse, he'd saved his soul
But, even in this, he used to say,
"One can't too careful be-
And he sang with . feryor unassnmed
'Tm glad salyation's free"
But the peans Of grace, he had to own,
Required good, hard-earned gold;
And he took ten pew as we'll became
Therichest Of the fold
'He's a noble man" the preacher cried
"Our Christian Brother b.
And Billy smiled as he sublet nine,
And got his W pew free.
In class meeting next, old Billy told
How heaven had gracious beer
Yea, even back in the dark days whe.
He was a man Of sin
81 was building O barn on my river farm
"All 1 had then" he said;
'Td run out O boards, and was feedin' hands
son nothin' but corn bread
81 tell We, brethren, that / felt blue,
Short o. boards and cash,
And Thoughtful die when the banks then bust
And flooded all my mash.
But the Lord was merciful to me
And sent right throughthe rift
The tide had made in the river banks
A lumber raft adrift
PLENTY o. boards was there for the barn,
And on top was a cheese,
And a barl o pork as sound and sweet
AS any one ever sees.
Then / had bread and meat for the men,
And they worked with q will,
While l thanked God, who'd been good to me.
And I'm dom It still.
A shrill-voiced sister cried "Bless the Lords
TG'9 whole class cried Amen!
But a keen eyed man looked at Billy b
In a thoughtful way, and then
Asked: Brother B., did you ever hear
Who lost that raft and loadg"
And Billy wiped his eyes and said,

The ebbing music dies away
rDeligbtful, glorious, diyine!"
You hear the esger walters Hay,
Breathless from "Ehren on the Rhine.
On fair flushed cheeks the soft camps shin
And laughter low and sweet sly glances
With the soft tide Of talk combine
Between the dances.
And here and there In pretty gro.ps
The dancers rest about the room;
To whisper low the gallant stoops-
The dim eonseFyatory's gloom,
It's shadows and the faint perfume,
Congenial 10 the old romance Is;
And many brave man meets his doom
Between the dances.
In lightsome cadence glad and gay
The ripping tide Of talk flows on
The reigning waltz, the latest play,
The last new tale by such a one:
The Church and politics they shun,
And what the attitude Of France ISL
But hearts are lost and heart are won
Between the dances
