ALW AVS DYING.

Changes In Humtn Economy Begin
With Life and Continue TIL Death.
Life. indeed. consists in series of
changes Of tissue. and the human
economy is simply as far as its ma
terial part Is concerned. a machine.
and Ir.marily depends on food as the
most important factor in keeping it IN
working order. Whom it is said that
we commence to die as soon as we are
born it, of course means that cer-
tain parts of the body Immediately be-
gin to perish; their existence is ephem-
eraL they come and 60 are relin-
pushed and decay. They are the dy-
ing parts OF that system of life which
may last little while, but must even
tually yield to the memorable law OF
nature. The nails. the hair etc. are
observable as an instance OF this de-
cay. The same rule applies to every
other organ and tissue OF the body
though it is not palpable to the naked
eye. The skin is always peeling.
The food that is taken in the one
hour nOurishes the system and elects
that which was taken the hour be-
fore.
Perfect health and condition. at
whatever time of life we may apply
the term. from infancy to old age.
| depends upon the proper assimilation
OF the food taken. and its natural
elimination when it is done with. by
the different organs that have to deal
with it. OF course heredity and
| few other circumstances must be
taken into consideration in estimating
the chances OF life. admits the Gen.
/ tleman's Magazine. If the exact
amount of food necessary to nourish
each tissue OF the body were taken
daily. having regard to work ana
other circumstances and il the econ
Omy were kept properly employed. IL
would mean that the individual would
be in the most perfect health and con.
ditiou and ought to live to the age Of
a hundred years or more. But how
seldom does this occur. From some
cause or other more is taken than is
necessary to supply constitutional re-
quiremeuts and tho result is that the

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan.-The week
promises to be eventful in the senate.
Save the passage OF the quarantine
bill the senate has accomplished very
little. and not one OF the annual APP
preparation bills has been passed. The
committee on order OF business has de-
termined that something must be done
to advance the public business. 1t
was at the suggestion OF Mr.. Sherman,
chairman of that committee, that WASH
burn gave notice that he would ask
the senate to sit next Wednesday until
the anti-option bill Is disposed OF.
That this can De done without q bitter
struggle, is not expected. What will
follow the anti-option bill will be de-
cided by the committee on order OF
business before Wednesday. At pres
emit the opinions are that priority will
lie between some OF the interstate COM

day.
There is some opposition to the i'm
migration bill and it ia hardly likely
that one day will suffice for its pas
sage. The friends OF the quarantine
bill reported by the committee on for
eign and Interstate commerce. which
bill it is commended. meets all the
evils as to cholera. which the immi-
grafton bill was designed to remedy,
are opposed to the immigration bill.
The quarantine bill was antagonized
very strongly by the state quarantine
officers of New York, but at least a
part OF this opposition was withdraw.
There is probability for some trou-
BILE for both of these bills from the OPP
position OF numbers who favor the
different measures.
The commerce committee has form
liable list OF measures which 1t hopes
to pass. headed by tho omnibus light
house bill, and the bill for the con.
structiou OF couple OF additional
revenue cutters. Inc committee is
also anxious to pass two bills amenda-
tory of the Interstate commerce act
which will be reported to the house
during the week by Chairman Wise OF
Virginia, to meet the Counselmen

troll OF the Interstate commerce COM
