or fat, gradually exhaust the fat of the
body below the normal point and prepare
it for the ready inception of contagion and
poisonous influences in seasons of epi-
denies.

exposed to these dangers, especially if their
fare includes salmon and other oily fish.

sea fish, combined with that received from
the atmosphere and their general sanitary
conditions of life, all tend to favor Wig

Chief OF Police Hopper of Newark

few days ago. Mrs. John Kinney had
accused her husband Of assault. She
had been put upon the stand and had
begun TO lay the blame wholly upon
John, when, suddenly her wrath over

band, she blacked his eye with a blow
resembling in many important par
ticulars that with which Mr.. Slavin

Baltimore.
Though this act was a little out of
the ordinary run of evidence, it must
surely have been convincing to the

deavoring to recover in the ten sec

the kidneys lay down on the floor
and yelled at the top Of their voices.
Then Mrs Kinney Joined the chorus
with wild screams i-nterspersed with
requests to be locked up. The JUS
tice complied, and the woman was
put into an adjoining room, while
Kinney gave his testimony. Mean
