Notwithstanding that travelling promises
so much in the way of health, both men
tally and physically, but few who indulge
in it realize its greatest good, and no small
proportion are literally tagged out even
after journey extending merely over
day or two Such result can generally be
largely, if not entirely, obviated by little
judicious management.
The average travellers greatest fault Is
that he makes no provision for his meals.
If jOurneying by rail, he relies almost
wholly upon the restaurants along the
route, and what he eats is swallowed hur-
riedlg and in a state of heat and excite
ment that are by no means favorable to d.
gestion. The food provided at such places
has been the subject of much invldlou3
criticism, yet it would scarcely be possible
to do it injustice, for very little or 1t Is
above suspicion, while much of it is abso-
lutely unfit for the stomach OF man, Tor
the reason of it's questionable nature, be-
ing allowed to stand too long after cook
ing, etc.
Unless there happens to be dining car
on the train, the best way for travellers Is
to make no meal at all until the journey il
over, provided, of course, it is not to be too
long, but to carry a supply of provisions,
such as bread, boiled eggs, chicken sand
witches, fruit and the like. They can then
eat when they like, and if they do 81
lightly, as they ought, they will be hungry
as often as every three hours.
If this plan is adopted it will lessen in
fnitely much of the hardship of a journey.
and keep the mind and body in a strong
and active condition. 1t will also do much
to prevent the aching and swelling of the
legs which are so often complained OF after
a long days confinement in the cars.
Breaking the fast often in this way In
also preventive of indigestion, from which
travellers Of long distances are frequent
sufferers, especially in summer. Often
times they go much longer without food
than they ought, and in consequence the
stomach becomes inactive and partially
paralyzed When the stopping place is
reached, beias half famished, they eat at
once and hurriedly. OF course full meal
on stomach in this condition, If it is not
! vomited, reLlcins for a long time undi-
gested. If long period of fasting has
been unavoidable travellers should not eat
heartily when they reach their stopping
places. but should take something very
| light, as souI, eggs, a little fruN, bread and
coffee. and make up for their denial at the
:, next meal.-4toston Herald.

The season was an exceptionally
favorable one for wheat, and the
amount and distribution of the rainfall
were such as to favor the assimilation

TRAGIC DEATH OF A PROM.
NENT TOLEDO LADY.
MRS. LILLE K. WARNER, OF 18th ST
MEETS WITH A TERRIBLE FATE
BY THE EXPLOSION
OF A GASOLINE LAMP !!
HEARTRENDING SCENES AT THE DY.
ING WOMAN'S BEDSIDE.

The once happy home of Mrs. Lille
Warner, at 13 Thirteenth-st., is now
overcast with gloom and sorrow, over
the tragic death of beloved mother.
Saturday morning Mrs. Warner
arose and comm enced performing her
househould duties by lighting the gaso-
line stove. She wore only her night
clothes, and as she was bending over
the little stove with a match in her
hand, there came quick flash, and in
an instant the poor woman was one
mass of flames. With wild cry she
darted back and uttered scream
which was heard by neighbor named
Bergman, who rushed into the house,
! and sezing the unfortunate woman in
his arms quickly eXtinguished the
flames. She was carried to bed and
+ physician summoned, who did all
that was possible for the sufferer who,
after thirteen hours of intense pain,
breathed her last.
! Eleven years ago Mr.. John Warner,
! husband of the deceased, was taken
J from her by consumption followed one
: week later by her father from the
same cause. Mrs. Warner has since
kept the little family together by
teaching school, she being up to the
time of her death, principal of the
Browns Addition school.
Her death is mourned by a large cir
Gle of friends, all of whom unite theil
extreme sympathy for the orphan
children.
Her funeral was held from her late
residence on Thjrteenth-st, this after
noon at2 o'clock.
Mrs. Warner was a lady well knowr
and highly respected by many in Ma
poleon.
