of little intellect.

Madam Talleyrand did her best 10
pleas. her husband, and during dinner
devoted herself to the distinguished
guest who was sadly puzzled by her
singular questions. The amiable lady,
whose reading about travels and tray

however succeed.
I\araiti possessed an inIuiring mind,
and had gathered Il good deal o. aston

life from the captains and traders of
his acquaintance. They had told him,
for one thing. of the manner in which
Europeans and Americans employ

John Lynch of Eugene, Or. u sui

that fasting is a cure. BY abStainng

result has been the same in each case.
The longer the fast the longer the cure.
