man sets himself up as q judge
of the proper food for his
family, and guided by his experience, pur-
chases the meat supplied his family, and is
unaware that the tests of his own experience
will not prevent him from supplying dis
eased meat.
"I am not an alarmist, and do not raise
an outcry against the established order OF
things. 1 say to the men, you are wiser than
I, and yet 1 cling to my belief that either
what Iconsider physiologicallya as unhealthy
meat cannot be considered as so injurious to
mankind, or am forced to the conclusion,
judging from the meat we use, that as men
and women we are not healthy.
WISE PROVISIONS IN NATURE.
"But we are healthy. tits wise provision
in nature that enables us to swallow the rat
tlesnake's poison with impunity, and 1t is
wise provision in nature that that which as
a tumor would destroy the life of the indi-
vidual whose tissues it invades may become,
under the proper process Of cookery, fair
ly healthy food, and the tests which we rely
on, such as that of taste. color and others,
are simply the instructive tendencies
of our nature, which, without leading US
necessarily to do right, still never lead US
to do that which is wrong.
From the nature of the things, when you
consider the fact that millions of animals
have been eaten without the possibility of
rigid inspection of the tissues which
would meet the requirements of
healthy meat; and when we consider the
further fact that unless it is in the case OF
parasites work in the tissue or species of
tumor that is readily recognized as capa-
BILE, through its cells, OF spreading its kind,
we must decide that tumors in meat, formed
of living tissues and governed by the laws
of organization, if they were not part OF
the living being, would be regarded as
natural in their growth, healthy in their
lives and proper matters for food.
THE CHEMISTRY OF LIVING.
1.-THE protoplasm that built the primitive
cell from which we spring is the same that
lies behind every cell, whether that cell
forms healthy or unhealthy structure, and it
is the protoplasm alone in our body which
lives.
1.-THE protoplasm is changed in the proc
ess of cooking from its original elements
and enters into the body as molecular mat
ter to reform tissue, and the reformed It's
sues are protoplasms. Brown-Sequard, by
injecting living protoplssms, tried to reach
a short cut and at once have it form a part
of the living tissue, which is impossible.
Diseases spring from causes which have
no necessary organic relation to the tissues
of living animals, as the microbe of con-
sumption. The microbe develops a tumor,
but the tumor, il subjected to cooking, is
not the cause of consumption when eaten.
The danger lies in the cause behind it, and
that is the microbe. 1t enters the body in the
air in different ways still to be discovered.
There is vast field of study in the causes
of diseases, and as the microscope unfolds its
miracles just so much better will the medi-
cal profession know the cause and be able to
cope with the effects"

Marriage Customs in Holland.

A curious custom still exists in many
provinces in Holland. If a young man is
in love with girl, and wishes to ask her
hand in marriage, he goes about it in the
following manner: He buys small sweet
cake, and wrapping it mp in soft paper,
proceeds to the house of his inamorata:
upon his arrival he is ushered into the
midst of the family circle; without word
he walks up to the young lady he wishes to
make his wife, and lays the cake ON the
table before her. The rest of the family
affect not to notice anything unusual, and
continue their work or their reading; the
Young man turns aside and talks to the
father or mother on some very ordinary SUBJ
ject, keeping his eyes eagerly fixed on the
girls face while she 10 conversing. II che
accepts his offer, she takes up the cake and
eats it. Sometimes, though Dutch, she il
coQuettish, and fortunes the young man by
turning it over and playing with it, before
ehe decides TO bite it, and then enrapturet
him by eating it to the last crumb. II, or
tbs other hand, she wishes to have nothinS
more TO do with her admirer, abe quickly
rewraps the cake in its covering and puts Il
back ON the table. In this case the younf
man takes mp the cake, satisfied with his re.
fusal, and with ''Vaarvoal byzamen.

WEST BERGEN.

On account of the inclement weather
yesterday afternoon very few MEM
bers attended the meeting of the
Woman's Home and Foreign Mission
airy Society at the West Side III. f.
Church. When the president, Mrs.

only five members were present. On

An improvement could be made on
the fence at the Central Railroad cut
near the Bergen avenue bridge. The
present one consists of nothing but
posts of wood, between which nothing
but two iron bars are placed. There is
sufficient room between the lowest bar
and the ground for a good sized person
to pass under. Should any one slip upon
the board walk, and not have suf1i-
cient presence OF mind to grasp the
lowest iron bar, he would fall to the
tracks forty feet below. This is a
very dangerous spot for children, and
a bad accident here would not be sur
prising. A solid board fence is the
only thing which would render it per
fectIy safe.
