REvERSES THE RULES.
Eugene Field Tells How Dyspeptics
should Eat.

From ne chicago Nelrs.
am told that the most remarkable
physician In England at the present
time lives in Birmingham. He is not
yet 40 years Of age-I cannot recall his
name at this moment. What Interested
me In the talk had about him was the
circumstance that he violates many Of
the customs Of life. For example, he
dimes at 730 every evening, and at 0
o'clock he goes to bed. At . o'clock In
the morning he rises, reads for two
hours and writes for three hours. At Z
o'clock he eats light breakfast, and
then goes to bed again, rising at H.
The hours devoted 10 the practice Of
his profession are therefore, with few
exceptions, between noon and 2 p. m.
The amount and the quality Of work
done by this man are said TO be simply
wonderful, and in five years he has risen
TO foremost place In the medical pro-
fession
cannot forbear giving for the benft
Of your dyspeptlc readers a few rules
that are laid down by English physl
clans for the Observance OF those who
suffer from acute indigestion:
/. Do not eat beef; Il Is too hearty
for the average dyspeptic. Eat the
lean Of mutton lboiled perfeetly)
? Bacon In small quantities may be
eaten; also thin slices OF aerated bread
fried In bacon fat also boiled pigs feet
and trlpe, and the fish not known as
oily fish.
8, Eat no fruit. or vegetables partake
sparingly Of baked potato, rice aud
boiled peas.
4. Bread may be eaten (aerated bread
preferred) Ia thin slices toasted TIL they
are brittle.
5. The brown meat OF fowl may be
eaten. Avoid all gTayles and sauces.
q, Abstain from all liquors, and drink
no tea, unless II be fresh made.
z. Eat no eggs, except fresh raw, well
whipped. Sugars should be avoided.
S. Drink no feed water; partake
freely Of hot water and hot milk (not
boiled).
0, Lie down for twenty minutes after
each meal.

On Tuesday, towards night, two
brothers, Simone and Giovanni Mascia,
were returning home in a carriage from
their estate near San Severe, in the prov.
ince Of Foggia, when they were stopped
by two masked bIigands, armed with
guns The ruflians demanded a ransom
of 100 000 francs. but finally consented
to take 40 600 francs in gold, which the
elder of the brothers was to fetch at
once from the town, his brother and the
COaChman remaining as hostages. As q
signal on his return Simone was to carry
an open umbrella and q lighted cigar
He soon reached San Severe and in
formed his family, who after some de
lay advised the police. Time pressed
and It was impossible TO obtain more
than 1000 francs In gold at that hour.
The police arranged that Simone was
TO set out lest the brigands had set q spy
on his movements, but that at a certain
spot a faithful servant was TO take his
place and the money and proceed TO the
rendezvous, followed at a short distance
by picket Of carbineers. When the
servant arrived at the appointed place
his appearance aroused the suspicious Of
the brigands, but he played his part so
well that he gained time for the soldiers
10 come up. The latter no sooner issued
from the shadow Of the trees than they
were received by a lively fire from the
brigands Without replying to the fu.

A VOICE FROM KANSAS.
The western Farmer Has No Interest
In High Tariff


In high Tarin.
From Ne Atc1ison Champion.
The Western farmer has no interest
whatever in protective tariff His
interest rather lies ia the direction Of
free traGc-of access 10 all markets
wherever his products may be in de-
mand. IL Is for his interest to sell what
he raises wherever In all the wide world
he can find a purchaser, and thus pro
vide himself with the means Of dispOs
ing Of his surplus crops, Not only Is
be yitallY interested In securing all
possible markets, but equally so In
buying what he needs as Cheaplv as
possible Sell where he may, and buy
at the lowest iigures-this. selfish as Il
may seem, Is what most concerns the
Western farmer
Free trade will give the West the
markets Of the world and an oppor-
iuuity 10 buy what Il requires at less
than half II now pays for these same
articles.
Lumber, hardware, furniture, cloth
Ing groceries and agricultural imple,
ments-these the West needs princi.
pally. Free trade will bring these
things TO US at figures far below pro.
teCtiye prices
In all this the Champion speaks solely
from the standpoint Of self.interest II
Is with States and sections as with indi-
yiduaf cilizens-self preservation Is the
first obligation. A due regard 10 our
sectional preservation, our territorial
interest, demands the adoption OF free
trade-commeTcial reciprocity with all
nations. The East, as we have stated,
has grown dangerously rich by means
Of protective tariff now let the West
assert itself and use the means at its
command 10 change It's economic policy
10 one more conducive 10 sectional vel
fare.
The question Is broader than party
lines. Il Is more vital than mere formal
political organizations, and more essen
tial than the dominance Of any partlcu-
lar set Of politicians, for Il touches our
life and is indissolubly interwoYen with
our existence.
Protection continued twenty years
longer, and the West, with It's vast agri-
cultural possibilities, would be a pauper
bound hand and foot Let us who live
here In the West be fools no longer, but
let us exercise our common sense aud
protect our own interests by obtaining,
just as quickly as possible the freest
trade with all iIs attendant benefits.

The last Place where Men should

IRON Blactu0od's Magazine.
Never was a more wonderful mingling
of strange elements than in this great
temple OF the Holy sepulchre. The
Greeks have one portion Of It, the
Latins or Roman Catholics, another,
the Armenians a third, and there is also
q division, think, for the Copts. In
the holiest sanctuaries Of all, where, rs
oil believe, the Lord was cruciied aud
buried, there have been struggles, some
times ending in bloodshed, between the
conflicting churches.
People say that still. but for the
Turkish soldiers about. such struggles
would take place again Needless to
say, yet II Is necessary to say II. since
the vulgar mind loves to perpetuate such
a report, that neither Of the churches OF
their authorities are responsible for
these blazings up Of popular rivalry. II
is the ignorant multitude that do the
harm, which all the efforts of the
leaders are Intellectual to restrain or
undo.
The special moment Of danger when
such unseemly strife has happened has
been the moment Of the supposed mira
Gle of the holy FIRE, which takes place
on the Saturday between Good Friday
and Easter, according TO the Greek cal
endar On this day, in the afternoon,
the Greek Patriarch comes down with
a solemn procession to the Holy Sepul.
chre, and entering into the little chapel
with his attendant bishop alone, after a
short interval Of hushed expectation,
puts forth, through a round aperture
in the wall Of the sepuichre, the mirac-
ulous fire which Is supposed to spring
from the tomb.
Nothing could be more extraordinary
than the aspect Of the great area below,
upon which we look down from the
lofty gallery that surrounds the dome.
II Is crowded with men, many Of them
in white tunic and drawers, their upper
dress put aside, and everything that
would impede them In running. They
push and crowd and jostle, not to say
fight, with arms and legs and 1.-the
bodies that twist as IL there were no
bones in them, darning themselves out

ment, to get TO the SPOT nearest the

STORY OF WENDELL PHILLIPS.
where the Great orator Told Par
son to GO.

SOU 10 bn.
From ne TAUadslbAia Press.
Mr.. Purvis told good and character
istic story Of the late Wendell Phillips,
who fought side by side with him dur.
ing the battle for emancipation. One
day he arose to address a meeting that
was more than usually hostile 70 the
aloliiionists and had howled down aud
lnsulted several previous speakers. Mr..
Phillips walked 10 the front Of the plat.
form, and, scanning the angry faces In
front Of him with a keen and fearless
eye, began: you scoundrclsp' In.
stanlly there was "a storm Of angry hOw.s
and curses, but when they ceased he
repeated In a louder voice you
sc0undrclsl"
Again the storm rose and again he re-
peated the term. The fourth time the
American admiration for fearlessness
and fair play asserted itself, and the
balance of his speech was listened 90 in
silence and with respect Another time
Mr.. Phillips was In a railway car 10
which were a number of ministers re.
turning from a convention, Among the
number was a man with a loud, strident
voice, who was loudly declaiming
against the abolitionists, and especially
against Mr. Phillips. He was talking
at every one 10 the car, and finally
shouted that he understood that Nj
Phillips was on board Calling the
conductor, he asked him TO point out
Mr.. Phillips. The conductor Indicated
the orator, who had been a quiet and
interested listener.
The little man with the voice strobe
up the aisle 10 a disrespectful distance,
and after striking an attitude, the fol
lowing colloquy took place;
SO you are Wendell PhilllpsY'
II am, sir, " replied the orator,
quietly.
Then why don't you 60 South
and preach your doctrine there?"
shouted the little minister.
''At that time" explained Mr.. Pur-
Wis, In relating the incident, ANY abO-
itionist would have been lynched in
the South.
Replying to the clergyman, Mr. Phil
lips asked:
You are a minister OF the G0spel2"

The Empress Of Austria Is not yet

beth intends TO start for Amsterdam,
whence early In August she will set out
for Gibraltar on what il Is TumOred
may prove a voyage around the world
She Is as fond Of equestrian exercise as
eYeT but, unfortunately, the state Of
her health has rendered Il necessary for
her 70 finally relinquish her seat in the
saddle
How she has walked for some years
past Is a matter Of common talk IN
Austria Hungary. To the dismay Of
her ladies in attendance the Empress
has often Tambled over the hills Of
Buda, end through the sylvan shades
Of the WineTWald, til her companions
have been literally walked OIL their
legs, and have been obliged 10 ask their
imperial mistress for permission 10 sit
and rest Even If the Empress does
not 90 around the world, IL Is under
stood that she viii certainly pay a
visit 10 America, a country for which
she has often expressed great admiTa-
ton.
The house I'm which The ArchduChess
Marie Valerie and her husband viii
pass The first part of their married life
Is the old and, until lately, semi dilapl

bought by the Emperor and patched up
sufficiently TO serve as a temporary home
for the newly married couple. Wels,
