How an English Physician Lives-Some
Things Dyspeptics Can Eat
Eugene Field writes from London to the
Chicago News: am told that the most re-
markable physician in England at the pres
emit time lives in Birmingham. He is not
yet 10 years of age-I cannot recall his
name at this moment. What interested me
in the talk had about him was the circum-
stance that he violates many of the customs
Of life. For example, he dimes at 1880
every evening and at o'clock he goes to
bed. At o'clock in the morning he rises,
reads for two hours and writes for three
hours. At o'clock he eats light break
fast and then goes to bed again, rising at
II. The hours devoted to the practice of
his profession are, therefore. with few eK-
ceptions, between noon and p. m. The
smount and the qualify Of work done by
this man are said TO be simply wonderful,
en1 "a Ave years he has risen TO a fore
- paaoe in the medical profession.

Quinine OyercOats.

Few people have any idea of the amount
Of quinine that is consumed in period of
time or of that sold by single dealer in
the drug: Extravagant stories have been
alchuloid which they have consumed, and
if it has not been quantity sufficient to put
them in wooden overcoat it would proba-
bly,, converted into cash, provide a comfort
able top coat for winter wear. This time of
year overcoats are out of season, and the
question uppermost is how to keep cool and
where. Rest and recreation come in that
line. Thoughts of this kind should lead
one to inquire of any agent of the Mime
apolis d St. Louis Ry. as to summer rates
to tourist points in all parts of the country,
or for short fishing excursion. Any special
information will be cheerfully furnished
upon application to c. M. Pratt, G. T. & p.
