Tho Food of a Lifetime,

Apropos of victuals, the statistics which
a clever Frenchman has just published
concerning the food we eat are interesting
and perhaps suggestive. According to his
reckoning human being of either sex,
who is a moderate eater and who lives to
be 10 years old, consumes during "the days
of the years of his life" a quantity of food
which would fill twenty ordinary railway
luggage vans. A good eater" however,
may require as many as thirty vans to
carry the luggage for the inner man, but
what those people would require who are
always hungry, and whose stomachs are,
to ell intents and purposes, bottomless
pits, that the statistician is unable to indi-
cate. Another investigator affirms that
women eat much less than men, after
making allowances for differences in
weight and work. Where a man eats
nineteen ounces, woman of the same
weight and of active habits eats only four
teen or fifteen ounces.-Herald of Health.

There are some drawbacks to man hav-
ing Napoleonic head, and Robert p. Por-
ter, the superintendent of census, proba-
bly, wished the other day that nature had
made him more like other MOI tails. 1t was
in Mrs. Morton's reception parIor, and he
was standing busily talking with group
of friends, when stalwart woman APP
preached him. Every one made way for
her, as her size commanded respect. APP
preaching him, she said, in voice that
could be heard from the drawing room to
the conservatory:
well, my dear Mr.. Porter, am SO de-
lighted to see you again, and think you
are looking more like Napoleon than ever.
What do you do to make your face have
that strong, noble frmness, 80 like the
great Napoleon'sW Aud she would have
gone on had not the census takers dis
tressed and blushing face pleaded for mer-
cy. Some one managed to interrupt the
flow Of laudation, and the woman passed
blandly on, Mr.. Porter asserting as she de-
parted that he had never seen her before

An old lady once told me that when she
was girl she visited bride friend, and
when the husband came home ut night,
tired, hungry, cold and cross, his young
wife rushed into the hall and seized him as
he struggled out of his overcoat, devoured
him with kisses, to which he responded:
"There, there, my dear; perhaps if you
didn't want to kiss me quite so much
should want to kiss you more"
OF course, the man was brute, but his
brutality was founded upon a sound truth.
The great trouble with woman under
conditions of permitted love is that she
lavishes out of the vast treasure house of
her affections n great deal more than the
object can receive or assimilate. Her own
powers of loving and being loved are so
tremendously In excess of his that they
weary, terrify and satiate him long before
she has adequately expressed her own ten
derness.-Mrs Frank Leslie.

An Interrogation.

Is there not danger at the present day Of
saying too much on the subject of women
as wage earners2 Where it is necessary or
wise for them to work they surely ought
not to hesitate for minute. But among
well to do women, whose whole time
ought TO be given to their homes-their
husbands and their children-there is
growing restlessness and discomfort be-
cause the money making fever has attacked
them They can afford to work for less
than those who are obliged to support
themselves, consequently they bring down
the price paid for work in all departments,
and what do they gain2 They have a feel
ing of independence and satisfaction in the
result of their exertions, but it is often at
the expense of some needy sister, as we'll as
of the comfort and enjoyment of their own
family. Competition, competitionp' is

men to make this competition greater?-

He Played tho Car.

He entered a Broadway car ut Canal
street, and, as every seat was taken, he
stood up and hung to strap. On his left
hand, which hung by his side, was large
ring, and everybody at once noticed that
the stone was gone, The ring seemed to
be valuable enough for the stone to have
been diamond, and presently man
leaned forward and said;
Excuse me. cir, but you have met with
a loss. The stone Is gone from your ring"
"Whatl So it Isl" exclaimed the man,
as he lifted his hand.
He dropped bis eyes to the floor, and In
five seconds every other eye in the 3ar fol-
lowed suit. Heads were bent down, words
of coincidence began to be uttered, and two
or three men got down on their hands and
knees and looked under the seats. After
Ave minutes search one of them finally
asked:
when did You miss I'll"
"Just now"
Think you lost 1t in the carl"
"Dunno."
"Was it very valuable"
well, priced it highly as keepsake"
Another hunt was made, but with no
better success. Then the owner of the ring
began to feel in his pockets, and presently
he took out shirt button, with bit Of
wire to it, which somehow fitted into the
ring, and after placing it he held up the
ring and said:
Thanks for your interest, good people.

smile, and nothing was said for II couple

Senator Walthall of Mississippi, is by all
odds the prettiest young woman in the SEN
atorial circle. She is a brunette, with a
clear complexion and rich coloring. Her
features are regular and delicately cut, her
teeth are like pearls, her hair brown, and
her eyes of liquid hazel, expressive and
beautiful. Miss Walthall has a petite
figure, well rounded and graceful. Her
charm Of manner is sweetness and natural

in the gay and frivolous round of social
life, and her fathers desire is to save her
from becoming fashionable woman"
She is the apple of his eye and the devo
ton is mutual.-Washington Letter.

IN THEIR SAVAGE STATE.

-Four years ago Miss Mary O'Neill and a
band of devoted Catholic sisters from St.
Louis accepted the proposition of the In.
dian Office to undertake the conduct of a
boarding school at Fort Yuma in the
buildings abandoned by the military,
which were fitted up for school purposes
When they reached the reservation they
found their wards and patrons the most
primitive Indians in the United States.
The full summer dress of the stalwart
Yuma brave consisted Of long black hair,
concealing all of his head except his eyes,
nose and mouth, and breech clout. That
of his wife and grown up sister was skirt
woven with bark, extending from the waist
toward the knees. Their hair was tied
back, showing their faces. The little Yu
mas up to IL years of age were stark naked
In the winter few garments were worn
No hats, no shawls, no shoes, no trousers,
no coats, no dress skirts were known. The
adherence of the males for work of any
kind was evidenced by the stipulation of
the chiefs that If their boys entered school
they were not to be taught any useful EN-
ployment.
The Indies found the Yuma Indians vile,
filthy, pagan, superstitious and very low
in the scale of intellect. Their work had
to begin at the worst sort of beginning,
and Miss O'Neill tells me that she was very
much discouraged at the outlook. The PEG
pie of Yuma, accustomed to the degrada-
ton and depravity of the Indians, gave the
good women very little encouragement
