To Kaen HenIfhN.

Don't worry. Don't lie awake at night to think about your short comings and other peoples sins.
 Don't care violently for any one. Hearts and consciences are opposed to rounded contours and shapely uecks.
 Eat meats with fat on them. Eat fish with white sauce Eat potatoes, corn starch, simple puddings and ice creams.
 Eat fruit for your breakfast, but not tart grape and the tarter grape fruit. Eat baked apples with plenty of sugar and cream. and all sorts of stewed fruits which require sweet ening.
 Drink milk and cream whenever you happen to want them. If you don't care for these nourishing drinks cultivate a taste for them. Drink beer. but avoid lemonade, lime juice and the like.
 Eat for breakfast oatmeal swim ming in cream. Drink not tea and coffee, but cocoa, chocolate and milk. Spurn toast, espially if 1t is made of graham or gluten bread. Eat freshly made wheat bread with butter and honey.
 Do not take any more exercise than is absolutely essential to health. Take the air-yes. But let it be m carriage whenever you can, or on a sunny day in the park Violent exercise Is the worst possi- ble thing for the woman who would fain be plump.

 The JoURNAL-MISER joins the host of other friends in Prescott of the bride and groom in its con- cratulations and wishes un- bounded happiness and prosperity 10 them. Its congratulations would not be complete unless rendered also to Mr. and Mrs. Hale on the acquisition of a son to the family.

A serinn.Acci,ient

Cal. Fair, the saw mill man, oper- atiug on Big Bug met with a seri. ous and painful accident this morn ing. He was engaged in getting logs down the side of the mountain, to hIs mill. when he lost control of one while he was standing on the upper side of a stump. The log came against him, catching his left leg between it and the stump. The bones of his leg were broken so they protruded through the skin, and his leg was also pretty badly mash ed and bruised.
 A physician was summoned from Prescott and at o'clock this after noon a telephone message received at this office stated that he was resting easy.

Claret Not French.

-. 1t is curious, hy the way, that the word 'claret as applicable to red wine is unknown in France having indeed no tarser equivalent than the generic rin Ge bordeaux, and its origin Is by no means certain. IL has been supposed ro be derived from the word clair, but ths obvious objection Is that 1t Is any thing but transparent, an adjective which would be much more ftly asso- Ciated with sluteTne CT champagne. Here 1t may be incidentally remarked that in England grave is always as sumed to be white wine, and even Lit tre's Dictionary gives Grave, a white wine from the eBvircns of Crave, in the Bordeaux country This, like the well known definition of crab, is Q curiCns continuation of bluuders. In the first place the win de grave is as often Ted as white-indeed oEe of the four pre- miers crus cf claret-viz, the Haut Brion-iS a grave. Secondly, there is no such village as Crave in the GirOnde. Grave (nore Cften written graves) is a special sort of sandy gravel, and the vineyards which produce the wine known by that name extend along the leit bank of the Ga-onne from just te- low EordgaUx 10 something like 20 miles slGrly, ard. ''
 Skeat derives ''ciaret" from "clear, " the original meaning Icing clarified wiro, in old French claret. clai-et The wo-d is obsolete. in France, al- though. strangely enough, 1t Is still used in this OOuntry.-Notes and Que

Sensational Testimony.

During the investigation of the Maine disaster a Spanish speaking witness was introduced, whose name was suppressed by agreement be- tween him and the court. He had to talk through an interpreter. This witness was crossing about 7:3O o'clock on the morning of the 18th from Havana to Peglss on ferry boat. He was sitting near three Spanish officers, two of the army, one of the navy, and a citizen. They were talking about the Maine. One of the army officers said; That Is neatly arranged"
 The citizen asked if making ex plosions iu the bay would not en- danger Havana. The officer said: "No.' It was arranged so that 1t would simply explode, open the yes sel and she would sink immediately. The other man jOcosely exclaimed: "Oh, will take plenty of beer on that occasion" Some one came by and they suddenly stopped the con- versation.
 They had said 1t was a shame she (the Mainel should be in the bay aud they would blow her up any way.
