If asked what ! would place of high
est Importance in family diet l would
answer without hesitation abundance of
fruit. The apple il far more invaluable
than we have yet estimated. 1t should
be eaten before meals, and not after.
Not member of my family, myself in
cluded, but eats one, two or moro before
breakfast so long rs they are obtainable,
and as many before dinner--about half
an hour before the meal. AS soon az the
fruit is begun we stop all study or work,
and spend the half hour in sport or
walking or conversation.
After meals we rest in the same man
ner for one hour. No child is allowed
to study during this time. Nothing is
lost, for the head is thus kept out of
conflict with the stomach. Cereals, next
to fruit, are of prime importance.
recommend highly such preparations as
parched farinose--any food where the
cooking is done before the grinding.
Cola and granules are of this sort. AS
for meat, it must be at each ones option,
to be sure, but let us be sparing in our
carniyorous tastes.-St. Louis Globe

We Americans like to assimilate our
words and to make them our own, while
the British have rather a fondness for
foreign phrases. A London journalist
recently held up to public obloquy as an
Ignorant Americanism" the word pro-
gram, although he would have found it
set down in Professor Skeat's "Etymo-
logical Dictionary Programme was
taken from the French, SO recent
writer reminds us, and in violation OF
analogy, seeing that, when 1t was i'm
ported into English, we had already ana
gram, cryptogram, diagram, epigram,
etc. The logical form program is not
common even In America, and British
writers seem to prefer the French form,
Ms British speakers still give Freteh
pronunciation to charade, which in
America has long since been accepted
frankly as an English word. So we
find Mr.. Andrew Lang, In his "Angling
Sketches" referring to tho asphalte
surely in our language the word is
either asphaltum or asphalt.-Brander

Wade Hampton never smoked cigars
in a rational way like tho rest of man
kind. Instead, he took tho cigars as he
bought them and crushed them to pow
der between the palms of his hands and
made use Of the fragments as the old
regime use snuff. The coarse bits were
thrown away, and in the military com
mittee room, Of which he was so long
an occupant, there was always a pile Of
cigar shavings on the floor beside his
chair. The finest cigars in the market

TIE AGE OF PAPER.

~.. q sz
En', BE tho Only Useful Thias.
The World has seen its iron age and its
brazen age, but this Is the age of paper.
We IRE making 3D. many things of paper
that twill .soon be true that without
paper there ID nothing made. we live
In paper houses, wear paper clothing,
and sit on paper cushions in paper cars
rolling on paper wheels. If we lived In
Bergen, Norway, we could go ON Sun
days to q paper church.
We do a paper business over paper
counters, buying paper goods, paying for
them with paper money, aud deal in
paper stocks on paper margins. We row
races in paper boats for paper prizes.
We go to paper theaters where paper
actors play to paper audiences.
AS the age develops the oming man
will become more deeply imeshed in
the paper net. He will awake in the
morning and creep from under the pa
per clothing Of his paper bed and put
on his paper dressing gown and his pa
per slippers. He will walk over paper
carpets, down paper stairs, and seating
himself in paper chair will read the
paper news in the morning paper. A
paper bell will call him to his breakfast,
cooked in paper oven, served on paper
dishes, laid on a paper cloth on paper
table. He will wipe his lips with pa
per napkin, and having put on - paper
shoes, paper hat and paper coat, and
then taking his paper stick Che has the
choice of two descriptions already, he
will walk on paper pavement or ride
in paper carriage to his paper Office.
Ho will organize paper enterprises and
make paper profits.
He will sail the ocean on paper steam
ships and navigate the air in paper bal
looms. He will smoke paper cigar or
paper tobacco in a paper pipe, lighted
with paper match. He will write
with paper pencil, white paper sticks
with paper knife, go fishing with a
paper fishing rod, paper line and q
paper hook, and put his catch in paper
basket. He will go SHOCKING with q
paper gun. loaded with paper cartridges.
and will defend his country in paper
forts with paper cannon and paper bombs.
Having lived his paper life and achieved
paper fame and paper wealth. he will
retire to paper leisure and die In paper
peace. There will be a paper funeral
at which tho mourners, dressed in paper
Grape, will wipe their eyes with paper
handkerchiefs, and the preacher will
preach in paper pulpit, lie will lie in
paper coffin; he has chance of doing
so already if he is paper-we NEAR
pauper. He will be wrapped in pal eel
shroud, his name will be engraved on O
paper plate. and a paper hearse, adorned
with paper plumes, will carry him to q
paper lined grave, over which will be
raised paper monument. Paper Rec.
