The present mode Of eating new prac-

house boards three times day, 365 days

teen to twenty ounces. DR.. Nichols adj
vice is to fnd the minimum quantity
which enables man to do his daily
work without loss Of weight, by expert
meht, and then habitually keep to it.
In the midst of the dietary counsels
of the vegetarieans on the one side and
the Observation-Disclosures theorists on
the other, it is interesting to contemplate
the possibilities of the eating of the fu-
ture. 1t is probable that eating in the
minimum and a century or so thereafter
be abolished altogether, if the present
trend Of scientific dietetic discovery con-
tinues. The good old feasts of Thanks
giving and Christmas are decried as IL

CATCHING THE CAPTAIN,
The Old Tar Took Advantage of Chanc

The Old Tar Took Advantage of a Chance
to Get a Smoke.
The captain of certain large sailing
vessel is probably the most polite officer
in the whole mercantile service. He has,
however, a great idea of his Importance.
and loses no opportunity OF imprcssing it
upon his crew. In particular he insists
upon being addressed as sir by every
one on board. One day new hand
joined the ship, and short time after
leaving harbor, being a seasoned old salt,
he was intrusted with the wheel. The
captain came up and put the usual Ques-
ton:
Flows her head?''
''Nor'-by-east,' answered the old tar,
very grutfiy.
My man." sauyely answered the cap
tain, ION this craft, when one of tho
crew speaks to ME he gives me a title of
respect. Don't you think you might do
so, too? Now, how's her head?'
Nor'-by-east, l tell yer" shouted the
tar, displaying not little irritation.
Pm afraid you don't quite understand
me" responed the captain, good hui
moredly. LET me relieve you at the
wheel, and then do you take my place
and ask me the question. will then
show you how it should be answered. -
They accordingly changed places.
''Ow's her 'ead?' roared the tar.
''Nor'-by-east, SIR replied the captain.
with emphasis on the sir.
''Then keep her so, my man, whilst

the startling rejoinder from the old
reprobate, who calmly commenced to suit
the action to the word. ,,

Tie Most Unhea,thy Cit} In Europe,

AT St. Petersburg the average yearly

25,ln children were born alive, while
there were 80, $50 deaths, an excess in
this year of about 5000. But these fig.
ures are apt to be misleading. The
workmen who come up to the capital Ill
most invariably leave their wives and
children in the provinces. Thus, many
births take place in the provinces WHICH

by the presence of twelve men to every

TRUSTING WOMEN.
THEIR CONFIDENCE OFTEN LEADS
TO SUFFERING.
An Ohio Woman's Experience, as Here
Related, is Interesting to Every
American Woman.
tsrEc1AL TO DUB LADY READERS.

It is very sad fact that the more
woman trusts to the skill of her physician
in treating her female complaints, the
longer she is apt to suffer.
Lydia E. Pinkham fully realized this
fact when she commenced that exhaus-
tive study that has enabled the women of
the world to help themselves. She dis
covered the source of female complaints,
and produced the Vegetable Compound,
which is their absolute cure.
When such testimony as the following
is given, the woman who thinks should
act quickly, and no longer permit herself
to trust to incompetent doctors. The
Vegetable Compound is sold by all drug
gists, and every woman should have it.
