Common Sense and Food.

The doctors, in truth, have accumu-
lated great stock Of knowledge as to
food. They know what ought to be
eaten and drunk. They know what
ought to be refused, and they know,
within the limits fixed by climate and
labor, what are the beneficial quantities
to be consumed, but they have entirely
failed to make their knowledge perme-
ate the world. The educated have only
glimmering ideas as to what their chill
dren should eat. Half Of them, till a
few years ago, had a sort Of horror of
sugar, one Of the most nourishing Of all
substances-and the uneducated have
positively no ideas on the subject. They
just eat and give their children what
they can get. 1t may be said that this is
inevitable, because the majority in all
countries are too poor to do anything
else, but is that true?
We are not pretending to be experts,
but if we understand what professionals
say much of the best food produced III
the world is also the cheapest. Oatmeal,
for example, is very much better than
wheat bread and infinitely better than
rye bread and it is cheaper than either
Hardly anything in the world is as
nourishing as lentils, which might be
sold much cheaper than bread, and
eaten, too, with dripping, an invaluable
Millet, ON which the big
races of India grow so tall and strong,
might, if there were demand for it in

tuckians, the strongest race in America,

IndestructibiIity of the Diamond.

For thousands of years after the dis
covery of the diamond it was believed to
be indestructible, as far as acids and fire
were concerned. As respects the acids,
| believe that it is still maintained that
there are none known that will dissolve
it. In the eleventh century Bishop Rem
mes wrote the following concerning the
diamond i'll his poem, 1.-THE Lapidari-
um:"
Hardness invincible which naught can tame,
Untouched by steel and unconquered by flame.
The last words of the second line are
not true under all circumstances. If air
be freely admitted to the retort, a dia-
mond will burn like piece of bitumi-
nous coal as soon as the temperature is
raised above 8, 200 degrees of the Fab
renheit scale Such excessive heat can
not, of course, be measured by Fahrenheit
thermometers, but is recorded on an in
ttrument called a pyrometer. But in
regard to the feasibility of the diamond,
while the experiment has proved that
it is instantly reduced TO ashes if sub.
jected to a heat of 1000 in an open re
tort, counter experiments also prove
that if the air be excluded no known
degree of heat viii materially affect it.
