BnltInr Our Food.

There is undoubtedly a great deal
to be said in favor of the opinion
that considerable portion of the
Illness in this country is caused by
the unpleasant habit of eating too
rapidly. OF course we all know and
have at times very painful expert
ence of the fact that this is high
pressure age and alS is done at ex-
press speed, but this surely ought
not to be the case with our meals.
1t is interesting, but not pretty, to
watch the business man when he
goes into restaurant for his lunch
con. 1t is with him looked upon in
the light of duty and not pleas
ure. He must eat, and he feels that
he has only few minutes to devote
to the operation, go that he may be
back at his Office with all possible
speed. He attacks his food savage
ly, gulps down his beer or wine, and
when the last sad rites are over he
pays and bolts-in fact, it is case
of bolting from beginning to end.
Every doctor will tell you that peo-
pie should eat slowly and occupy
the time pleasantly with conversa-
ton In this way we shall live
longer and enjoy better health and
greater ability to cope with the

A Minister'S Wife.

A Toledo woman who hasn't had
much experience with high diplo-
matte folks and that kind of fune-
tiouaries on her native heath went
TO Washington last winter for q
month to thoroughly famiiiarlse
herself with the usages of the best
society. During the course of her
giddy whirl she struck the annual
charity ball-tickets, 50. so per-and
while there one of the ladies dancing
attracted her especially.
"Who is that lady over there In
the corner now with the low necked
dress oni" she inquired of her chap
eron.
1T is the wife of one of the min
listers here" her friend explained.

Rose Again.

A story is told of colored preach
er who was holding meeting In q
large tobacco barn in rural district
in Kentucky. An empty tobacco
hogshead was impressed into service
as an elevation upon which to stand
while delivering his discourse.
Warming up with his subject, he
soon became excited. Throwing his
arms into the air above his head and
elevating one foot, he exclaimed,
DE righteous shall rise and de wick
ed shall fallp' AT the word "fall"
he brought his foot down vehement
ly upon the head of the hogshead,
and, like q flash, 1t gave way, and
he dropped out of sight, being short
OF stature. Amid the pIecipitated up
roar he reached up and grasped the
chime of the barrel and drew him

of the caprice or meanness of those
upon whom he has to wait, but, as
far as can be gathered, this is view
which does not commend itself to the
employer because, in the event of
his being called upon to pay regular

mand higher prices for his dinners.

and, on the latter's affirmative re-
ply, he gave the order to head hez
up little to starboard. At this mo.
ment the emotion ON board the yes.

leaned over the rail. Then sudden-
ly, as if we all had been aroused
from a dream, the man and the bost

along the side of the vessel before

FREAKS OF THE EYES.
b Remarkable illustration of a Case OF
Collective HRIluclnation.

Collective HaIiucination.
Examples Of collective hallucina-
lions are very numerous. Let us
cito one that certainly is not gen.
orally known, and of which lieu
i, tenant in the French navy, M. Les
tonnat, was the victim.
"In May, 1881, said he, 81 was
on board tho bark Caroline. We
had just left Iloilo, in the Philip
pines, and wo were travelling toward
the Sunda strait. One morning we
were moving slowly, at the rate of
about four or five knots, in very
light wind, when the man on the
lookout shouted to me that he saw
pirogue or sharpie on the star
board quarter. Everything that we
see at sea, however insignificant, is
always interesting. Consequently,
placed myself in position to see
the object that the man reported.
But, on account of the lower sails, /
was obliged to go forward. From
there saw, at about two points to
starboard, the pirogue, which seem.
ed as if she was about to cross our
bow. Suddenly the mate shouted:
1t is not a pirogue. 1t is yawl-
boat Then the sailor came down
from the rigging and reported that
he saw distinctly man standing in
the boat and that he was making
signals.
1t is not necessary to be aloft
to SEQ that, replied the mate. i
can see him distinctly here.
after having observed the boat
with attention, l saw as plainly as
possible, and all the crew saw Just
as l did, man making signals with
something in his hand that we could
not yet recognize, but which evi-
IDENTIFY was gaif OF an oar at the
end of which was fixed a piece of
cloth.
There was no longer any doubt.
We had discovered an unfortunate
shipwreckcd man, whose vessel
doubtless was lost upon the rocks of
the shores called, if my memory
serves mo correctly, the Thousand
isles. ! Immediately reported to the
captain, who took his glasses and
followed me to the forward deck.
Ho recognized, just as We did, boat
painted white, and in the bow there
was man dressed in blue ganzy,
who was waving an oar, at the end
Of which was fastened piece of sail
cloth.
That poor devil is lucky, said |
the captains for if we had had moro
wind yesterday we would have
passed him in the night, and, of
course, we could not have seen him.
But as the current was drawing
the boat away from us he gave the
order to the man at the wheel to let
the vessel fall off so as to get the
boat well ON our starboard. In this
way we could easily reach it with
out the necessity of lowering boat,
which is always tedious operation
on board sailing vessels. The man,
seeing that we were coming for him,
ceased to signal, and sat down in
the stern, and with his oar he steer
ed the boat toward us. We could
see the boats mast was
broken at about three or four feet
above the sailing thwart. When she
was about 800 meters from us, the
captain, who was on tho poop, asked
the mate If everything was roady,
