THE EVENING MEAL.
1T Is Becoming the Most Substantial
One of the Day i'll This
Country.

1t is a matter of choice with the
household whether the evening meal
shall be a substantial dinner. as il usual
y Is in the house of a man of business.
who cannot come home in the middle
of the day. or a simple tea or supper,
as it often is in the country. where he
substantial meat Of he day is eaten at
noon. The fashion of serving the most
substantial meal of the day at night,
however. is on the increase in the colln-
try. All professional men. even though
they may live in a small city and their
office is adjacent to their homes. find
it an injudicious thing to eat a heavy
meal in the midst of their work. Law.
yers who wish to keep their thoughts
clear for pleading do not attempt to
eat so heavy Il meal as dinner before
their work for the day is done. The
minister or the professional writer
finds his thoughts flag and his task
harder to accomplish after Il heavy dim
ncr. The evening meal seems to be the
natural season for the heaviest meal
of the day for any worker. especially
where the breakfast is so substantial
as it is in the majority of American
families.
Where a dinner is not served at night
there is still a decided tendency to make
that meal more substantial, more like
southern supper. with hot dishes,
than like the cold. formal tea of New
England fame. where wafer-like slices
of bread, sweet preserve, delicately
sliced cold meat. Il plate of sweet cake
and tea constitute the usual bill of
fare. There are very few men of bust
ness who are able in the middle of the
day to give the proper amount of time
that should be given to dinner. If they
live near and come home to dinner.
they are likely to meet it hurriedly. and
thereby acquire dyspepsia. 1t is the
practice of most farmers to eat a
hearty supper. 1t would probably be
better for them if this were always a
hot meal and the dinner eaten in the
midst of their work were a lighter one
as it is when they go any distance from
home and are compelled TO take their
'dinncr" with them.
Everyone in these modern days sits
up long enough to digest substantial
dinner, as the old-fashiOncd excuse that
it was not wholesome to go to sleep
after a hearty meal no longer holds as
an argument against Il dinner at night

TREATMENT OF JAUNDICE.
A Painful Disease That Requires
Something More Than Home
Treatment.

Jaundice, or icterus, is not dis
ease in itself. but, like fever or diZZi-
ness, is merely Il symptom. Usually it
indicates an affection of the liver or at
least an affection which in some way
acts injuriously upon the liver. 1t is
simply Il yellow discoloration of the
body. not only of the surface but ALSO
of the internal parts and even of the
secretions, caused oy the circulation in
the blood of bile or of it's coloring mat
tiers.
The color Of the skin varies. accord
ing to the intensity of the jaundice,
from light straw color through all
the shades of saffron to a dark, almost
bronze. yellow. The yellow discolora-
ton is very noticeable in the eyes. the
whites of which are among the first to
show it.
In addition to the Disagreement
caused by the yellow color. the pa
tient often suffers from an almost i'm
tolerable itching. This is usually the
most severe in the palms of the hands
and the soles of the feet. and between
the fingers and the toes, and is apt to
be worse at nj CHIT.
There are almost always symptoms of
Indigestion. either in the stomach or
in the bowels the tongue is loaded wit
a more or less thick. yellowish coat

food. if not actual nausea,

with jaundice. The most common of these
are headaches. dizziness, sleeplessness
and often an irritability of temper, of
which the, sufferer is well aware, but
which he is not always successful in
controlling The sight is sometimes
jaundiced. all white or light-coored
objects appearing to be yellow.
The treatment of iaundice depends,
OF course. entirely upon its cause. This
is most commonly a catarrh of the bile
ducts. and the treatment is therefore
to be such as will tend to relieve this
condition. The diet should be plain
and free from fatty foods. Nothing is
better, if it can be tolerated by the pa
tient. than a diet of skim-milli alone,
The bowels must be carefully regulated,
frequent bathing is to be recommends
ed, and the patient. if he is not on
skim-milk diet should drink freely

will put himself in the hands of good
