(Artemus Ward) is published by tho
New York Advertiser. AS young
Brownies health was delicate and his
father and only brother had dieayoung,
he was urged by his friends to give up
certain indulgences and save himself.
This caused him to relate the following
anecdote to Mr.. Knight: II once knew
an old fellow in the west, living mainly
by himself, who said he had always
been making sacrifices as to appetite,
giving up one thing after another for
the sake of health. At length, which he
was about eighty years old, he had
simplitied his diet until he was just liv-
inr on whisky and pork. But one day
he a;,id to me: I guess I've got to give
up the pork--'fraid it's hurtin' me-"
