Eating slowly.

The opinion that hurry in eating is a
prolific cause of dyspepsia is founded
on common observation. The i'll re-
suits Of boiling food have been at
tributed to the lack of thorough masti-
cation and to the incomplete action II
the saliva upon the food. Two-thirds
Of the food which we eat is starch, and
starch cannot be utilized in the system
as food, until it has been converted into
gar, and this change is principally
effected by the saliva. But there is a
third reason why rapidity of eating
interferes with digestion. The presence
of the salivary secretion in the stomach
acts as stimulus to the secretion of the
gastric juice. Irrespective of the me-
chanical function of the teeth, food
which goes into the stomach incomplete
ly mingled with saliva passes slowly
and imperfectly through the process Of
stomach digestion. Therefore, as n
sanitary maxim of no mean value, teach
the children to eat slowly, and in giving
this instruction by example the teacher,
as well as the pupil, may receive benefit.

Quaker Cats Eat Oysters.

Philadelphia cats are peculiar. AS a
class they show great versatility and a
good deal of gastronomic enthusiasm,
There are cats in Philadelphia which
realize that the only way for an epicure
to really enjoy an oyster is to eat it
raw and off the half shell. They haunt
n certain fish market and seem to pass
their lives in an endeavor to provide
themselves with well-opened biyalves.
They are no more enthusiastic in their
devotion to oysters than another Phil
adelphia cat, pretty Maltese, that has
learned just what hour oysters are de-
livered weekly at its masters house. As
the oyster-eating Maltese stands in tho
good graces of the FISHERMAN and the,
cook, it is enabled once week TO IN
dulge its fancy for bivalves. 1t wiz
eat half dozen raw oysters with an
enthusiasm worthy of the very best cy..

seemed to be different from the rest Of
his tribe, and Mr.. Leon decided to keep
him rs u pet. Mr.. Leon, you may be-
sure, is very glad that he discovered the
abilities Of Bob at this early stage of
his career.
One day after Bob had been in the mar
ket about four weeks, the door Of the
coop was accidently left open and hc
walked out. Instead of trying to leave
the neighborhood at once, as most
other healthyroosters would have done.
Bob calmly took n walk up and down
the aisles Of the market. Eevery few
steps he stopped and crowed Justify, rs
if to tell the amused spectators that he
knew what he was about.
When Bob grew weary Of promenad,
ing he went back to his coop, ate d
hearty dinner and took nap. From
that day until the present moment he
pleases, and the marketmen all adore
him.
When business is dull at Mr.. Icons
Bob goes out to the sidewalk and at
tracts attention by Growing at the top
of his voice. This usually draws big
crowd to the place, and most Of the peo-
pie follow Bob when he leads the way
into the market and up to Mr.. Icons
stall. Many people stop to ask questions
about Bob, and most Of these folks make
purchase.
The cleverest thing that Bob does in
the interest of his masters trade is to
take one of Mr.. Icons cards in his bill
and walk up and down the sidewalk
where people can see him. In this way
he usually draws considerable number
of buyers in Mr.. Icons shop, who fol-
low out of pure curiosity, but who stay
TO buy things 1t is for this reason that
Bob will have n warm place in his
masters heart as long as the clever
rooster lives.

QUEER NAME FOR A FLY.


&c Deceived the Judge About to Start fas
His Vacation.
Police Judge Campbell announced
from the bench the other day that he
was DESTROYS of having all the business
Of his court cleared up prior to the date
OF beginning his vacation. He had
hardly descended from the judicial
bench when solemn visaged friend
approached him and g.asped his hand.
"Glad to hear that you are going
away for relaxation, judge" said the
friend, but want to warn you against
the sarcophaga."
"Sarcophaga? What the deuce il
that"
What! Never heard of the sarcop-
haga? Sarcophagus, which was origin
ally stone coffin, supplied the name
for the sarcophaga-only it has been
I.atinized.
"The dickens!" said the jurist.
"Yes, indeed. Rightly named, too.
You know that this climate encourages
noxious life with the same fecundity
with which it gives rise to fleas. On
every scented breeze are bacteria,
pupae and larvae in sickening profu-
sion. That is, they are sickening Ia
any man not as robust as you are. BY
the way, how are you feeling?"
The jurist said that he felt fairly.
Perhaps you are all right then"
broke in the friend, cheerily. "But to
return to the sarcophagus-no, sarco-
phaga, I should have said. Not a
sarcophagus, Ell, Judge? Awkward mis-.
take, that"
mo, not the sarcophagus, of course"
"Of course not. But the body of this
foe of man and beast, black and funer-
cal as his coat, is too suggestive for
comfort. A tracing would show the
main lines of the body to be shaped like
coffin lid. All, yes; here you are; not
good drawing, but still it shows a
coffin with wings on it. The wings be-
long to the sarcophaga, and not to the
sarcophagus."
There was something eerie in Judge
Campbell's eyes as he edged slowly
away, refusing to accept an invitation
to take drink or cigar, or to receive
further warmups. When his friend
had gone away the jurist sought out an
! elementary work on entomology.
"Well, I'll be blessed he said; "that
is good joke, after all. The fellow
was talking all the time about u horse
| fy."--San Francisco Call.

Their Childish Actions Indicated Future
Greatness and Fame.
A Swedish boy fell out of window
and was severely hurt, but with
clenched lips he kept back the cry of
pain. King Gustavus Adolphus, who
saw the fall, prophesied that that boy
would make n man for an emergency;
and so he did, for he became the famous
Zen. Bauer.
A woman fell off the dock in Italy.
She was fat and frightened. No one
OF the crowd of men dared to Jump in
after her; but boy struck the water
almost as soon as she, and managed
to keep her up until stronger arms got
hold of her. Everybody said the boy
was very daring, very kind, very quick,
but also very reckless, for he might
have been drowned. The boy was Ga
ribaldi, and if you will read his life
you will find these were just his traits
oil through-that he was so alert that
nobody could tell when he would make
an attack with his red-shirted soldiers
so indiscreet sometimes as to make his
but also so brave and magnanimous
that all the world, except tyrants
loved to hear and talk about him.

get their color, and painted the white
side of his fathers cottage in Tyrol

mountaineers gazed at as wonderful
