FOR Fl.EsHY PEOPLE.
a., outline of the Schweningsr Treatment
for Obesity.


a, outline of the schwenIngsr Treatment
for Obesity.
The system of Prof. Ernst Schwenin-
ger for the treatment of obesity, which
was introduced here about two years
400. has by this time been sufficiently
tested to demonstrate that any body
who will determinedly follow the regi-
men prescribed by it can reduce his
flesh to any reasonable degree desired,
II being understood, of course, that his
physical condition is not such by rea-
son of incurable heart or kidney
disease as to make reduction perilous.
And there is just one thing about it
that is hard to get used to. That is the
absolute prohibition of all liquids dur
inc meals and for an hour before and
seem so difficult to do without fluids to
wash down ones food until it is tried,
and the iron pressure of habit in sip
ping and even gulping water, wine,
milk tea, or coffee while eating is
realized. The very fact of prohibition
seems to make one more intensely
thirsty and the juiciest food takes on
the astringent dryness of chewed
pomegranate rind. OF course, one be-
comes accustomed to it after awhile,
eventually does not feel any desire for
liquids at the prohibited times, and
even finds less disposition to drink at
any time than he had before. Then
his reward comes, not only in the re-
duction of flesh, but in surprising
diminuton of the nuisance of perspira-
ton, which is the misery of all fat
men.
1t must not be supposed that this
shutting off ofliquids is the whole of the
treatment, though it appears to be the
most important requirement. That
ranking next to it is that one must not
gorge with food, especially food in
which sugar and starch are largely
component parts.
The Iron Chancellor still lives by
Schweninger rules and in doing so
keeps down his tendency to growing
fat and remains a wonder of vitality
and vigor at his advanced age. No
longer ago than last April one of the
special dispatches told how he re-
Stricted himself in eating to a light
breakfast and substantial dinner, with
no liquids at meals and only glass of
wine daily, taken just before retiring
One experiment with the bogus system
Of three pints of water before breakfast
by Bismarck would doubtless afford
Germany another frst-class funeral.
There is no royal road to relief from
corpulence that may be travelled with
ease and safety, and without self-sac-
rifce. Nostrums are from time to time
advertised us atfording it-such as one
now doomed in England, and finding
not few dupes here-but they do not.
Starvation la Banting, and the nos
trum cures that profess to reduce glut-
tons while practicing their gluttony if
they will only take a wineglasstul at
each meal, are alike dangerous hum
bugs. Renouncing liquids seems to be
demonstrated the safest and best thing
when accompanied by due moderation
in eating. But in no case is it abso-
lutely safe for a fat person to adopt any
really effective measures for reducing
weight without thorough preliminary
knowledge of the actual condition of
bis vital organs. -N. y. Sun.

CrowdIng Out sml~I Dealers.

The big shops in Paris have not formed
a trust, but, as though by tacit consent.
they work together to crowd the small
dealers out of business If two or three
of the small establishments drop prices to
gain trade, they are met by such a reduc
ton on the part of their enemies that
they are threatened with ruin and are
glad to get back to the former rates. One
man, owning a small shop in the vicinity
of a successful and wealthy rival, sought
to avenge his wrongs a short time ago,
and to a certain extent succeeded. On
several successive days he passed the big
store with a concealed syringe in his
pocket, and whenever the opportunity
offered he squirted ink on the exposed
white goods, In this way considerable
fine stock was destroyed before the author

Since the establishment of so many
creameries and cheese factories through
out the country, cheese making in fam
lies has almost become a lost art. The
nights and mornings milk may be put
together in a large kettle and brought
almost to blood heat, when rennet is put
in and stirred up with the milk. After
that it must not be disturbed again until
it has curdled and whey appears on the
top and sides of the kettle. Dip this oil
carefully, so as not to break the curd and
cause a whitish whey. This whey may
be warmed and turned back to keep III.
tho temperature until the separation OF
of the whey from the curd is complete
when it is all dipped off again and the
hardened curd is cut from time to time
into inch squares with a large knife to
still further aid in the separation of the
whey.
After this the whole is dipped into Il
coarse s~trainer cloth, spread in the cheese
basket and placed owe a tub to drain. 1t
is then chopped in a chopping bowl or
rubbed into small pieces and sailed ready
for the cheese hoops. when it is gently
pressed until the whey is all expelled. A
dried rennet is soaked in salt and water in
a stone jar, and the amount required will
depend on its strength and must be
learned by experience. A tablespoonful
to a gallon of milk is about the usual
quantity. When on the shelf to dry the
cheese must be rubbed daily with grease
made from heated butter until it is cured.
While n quite small fruit or cider press
might be used, it would not be well
adapted to the purpose, and a cheap one
made by a carpenter would be better.

An Old-Time Corn-shucking.

Corn-Shucking time in the South dur
ing slavery days was looked forward to
by the farmer and his family as one of
the big events of the year, and when
the runner came around to invite all
hands to corn-shucking at John
Smiths, or Bill Jones's, it was looked
forward to by all who had been invited
the same as we look forward to the
coming of a circus. The negroes from
different plantations within five miles
of John Smiths would start to the
corn-shucking soon after they had done
their days work and housed their
stock. Their leader, who was generally
the largest man in the crowd, would
start up song. answered hy all in his
party, and could be heard for miles
around. They would meet at the corn
pile, and the one that could halloo the
loudest was elected the Captain, and
would walk the corn-pile and give out
a song until the last ear was shucked.
After the shucks had been put in pen
the owner of the corn-pile was carried
around the house on the shoulders of
sevegal stalwart negroes, all hallooing
at the same time, and carried and put
at the head of the table and waited on by
those who carried him on their shoul-
ders. 1t was happy time and the
jug of old corn juice played promi-
nent part in the shucking, but it has
all passed away, and the farmer who
gets his corn shpcked now has to pay
well for it.-AtheHs lGa.1 Banner.
