The vast majority of people are aD-

Longman's Magazine; they think that
rich and luxurious people, feeding on
the richest and most luxurious foods,
are the most fortunate anu healthy
people. l assure you it Is just the re-
verse. am the director Of an insur-
ance company and am often obliged to
form an estimate of the commercial
value Of life. If. then, two persons of
the same age and constitutional build
come for calculation as to the none
tary value Of their future lives, and If
one be rich and luxurious and the
other be competent and frugal, frugal
even to abstemiOusness. would value
the life OF the frugal person as 20 per
cent ut least better than that Of the
rich and luxurious person.

satiated: never eat in the day one
heavy meal. but divide your food into
three light meals, equally distributed
as to time and quantity; eat slowly,
take small mouthfuls; masticate, or
chew, your food well; touch your food
with your fingers as little as possible;
do not cry out for animal food more
than twice IL day at most; have all
animal food we'll cooked and do not
forget fruit as food.

Members of the Generals STAG at
Gettysburg Give Some Details.
The surviving members Of the staff
Of Maj. Gen. George Il. Pickett. one of
whom is Col. W. Stuart Symingtnn Of
Baltimore, have issuc,: the following
statement, which explains lscls:
We. the undersigned. having seen an
article from Gel. X. Otcy in the Rich
nond Times to the effect that he has
heard many queries, cOnjec,urcs. ETC.,
us t" Gen. Piclett's position and con-
nection with the movements OF his d.
vision in the third days battle ut Get
tysburg. and has never heard any salts
factory answer 10 them. desire to make
the following statement of facts in re-
gard to the matter:
When the division arrived on the
battlefield on that morning, it took a
position slightly III the rear of the ar
til;ery commanded by Col. Il. L. Alex
ander. and Gen. Pickett was directed
to hold himself in readiness to move
against the cnemy's position whenever
notified by Gen. Alexander that the
Federal artillery WAS sufficiently dis
abled to render an assault practicable
One of Gen. Pickctt's cuuriers (Martin
Campbell by name, was left with Col
Alexander to bring his notice to Gen.
Pickett whenever he thought the prop
er time To move had arrived.
The artillery duel as is generally
known. ragged for about two hours,
and at the end of that time there was
uril,s,t c1n <,f y.
fire. Col. Alexander then sent to Gen.
Pickett the notice to move, under the
impression that the Federal batteries
We're to some extent silcnced. This
proved aftcrward to he 81 mistake, as
Il lulf in their fire was caused by q
temporary want Of ammunition. When
he received the order Gen. Pickett
placed himself Mt the front of his di
vision and gave the order to advance
-Kcmper and Garnctt in front and
ArmiStead in the rear, as q second line
Of attack.
A snort time after the movement be
gan Gen. Pickett assumed his proper
position in the rear and center of hi.
line of battle. moving forward with his
division actively directing its move
mentS. and i'll every respect participat
ing i'll its dangers. In no other position
would it have been possible for him t.
know what was occurring all along the
line or to discharge the duties which
every practical soldier knows would
devolve upon a major general com
lnanding an important movement.
When the attack failed he personally
superintendef! the withdrawal Of hii
troops and the formation of the rem
nant Of his division along new line
near our original position. That there
could possibly have been any doubt as
to the facts above mentioned is q
matter that will never be compre
hended by any man or officer familiar
with tile facts.-Blltimore Sun.

He was bent OIL getting a quantity Of

proprietor, who, by the way, was some
