INrEMpERANcE IN EATING.
A Common Falling That IL Harmful
end of which hut Little Notice
Ff IL Taken.

Volumes have been written and mil
lions Of words have been spoken
against overindulgence, or any indul-
gence, indeed, ip alcoholic beverages;
and whatever differences of opinion
there may be as TO the harmfulness
Of q temperate use of wine or beer,
there Is none whatever as TO the dam
gers OF intemperance in that direc-
ton. But how many persons ever
stop to think of the fatal effects OF in
temperance in eating? asks Youths
Companion.
Even insurance companies, which
would refuse TO insure an habitual
drunkard. make no inquiries, as rule,
concerning the applicants habits
about eating; yet as regards the
shortening of life, many Psychologists
assert that oyereating is more de-
structive than overdrinking.
The organs of the body are able to
assimilate only certain amount of
nutriment, which is proportioned to a
nicety to the daily loss of substance
in the different tissues.
II more food is taken than can be
utilized, the liver and the kidneys are
called upon to get rid Of the extra
amount, This they are perfectly able
TO do once in awhile, espe-
cially in the young, and even
q Christmas dinner month later,
can be disposed of with ease If
the organs are not babitually over
worked. But if they have to dispose
of a Thanksgiving dinner and two
other heavy meals every day of the
year, they win rebel and finally give
up exhausted, long before the proper
time.
No, ADULT leading the average life
need three full meals day; indeed,
,hree fsolid9 meals day are, it is
afe n say, absolutely hurtful to nine
ent sof us.
j is Of course impossible to lay
d 1n any hard and fast rule, as to the
taking of food, which will apply. to
Everybody under all circumstances,
but it is pretty safe to advise almost
everybody to eat less.
The Roman Catholic church pre-
scribes certain rules as to fasting dur
Ing Lent, which all its members are
to observe. According to
these directions only one full meal
can be eaten in the ay-either at
noon or in the evening. In the morn
ng nothinkis allowed but piece Of
bread with coffee, tea or chocolate;
'or dinner, there may be served full I
neal; then, for luncheon or tea, what
5 called collation., that is to say,
i light repast, is permissible.
The hygienic excellence of these
'ules is beyond dispute, and the only
quarrel the physician has with them .
$ that they are binding only upon the
members of that church, and upon
hem for only six weeks out of the 50.

MYSTERY OF THE BOOK.
II Was Hidden for Five Years Before
It's Whereabouts Was
Revealed.

"Once In awhile something out OF
the usual happens in the daily life of
government clerks, which Eeryes TO
break the monotony of the work, "
said n clerk in. the interior depart
ment, reports the Washington Star.
Occasionally, In all of the depart
ments, records or papers win mysteri-
ously disappear, and how they got
away or where they went remains al
ways an uusolved problem.
"About five years ago a large book
containing the records used in one
of the bureaus of this department
suddenly disappeared. How it could
have gotten out of the room without
hands was unaccountable, as it was
a bulky, heavy volume. 1t was of
no value as salable article, and the
motive of the theft was as inexplic-
able as its whereabouts.
"Diligent search was>made at once,
but to no avail The search was not
given up, however and was afterward
periodically made in hopes that it
would be found in an unexpected
place.
"And it was found in such a place
few days ago. One of the clerks
happened to look upon the seat of
the chair Of another clerk-anselde
ly lady with poor eyesight--and there,
under piece Of outer covering, lay
the big book. The lady is short
person, and the book had faithfully
preserved its records and held her up
for five long and weary years with
out complaint There was general
laugh at her expense, but the chief
was very glad it was eventually found
in the office.
"Official papers are often blown
from the desks of clerks into the
street Sometimes they are of impor-
tance, but usually they may be re-
placed with slight delay constitut-
ing the only loss.
"a clerk carelessly laid five ten-dol
lar bills on his desk in a room on
the Seventh street side of the former
post office department building on a
pay day few years ago. 1t was
during the prevalence Of the high
wind preceding heavy thunderstorm.
A minute later the bills were taken
up by d gust Of wind, and went sail
ing in all directions high in the air
above the street. Where they landed !,
was never known, for none was re-
covered
"The clerk took his loss philosoph-
ically when he got over the shock,
and said that while he had heard of
it raining cats and dogs, he could
testify in any court that he had seen
1t rain crisp new ten-dollar bills in
Washington.
"One day, in this department, some
papers disappeared 1t was
thought they had been stolen. Sew
eral weeks subsequently they were
discovered under the corner of desk
occupied by temporary clerk. She
had thought them Of no value, and
had placed them in this position to
preserve the equilibrium of the desk,
one of the rollers being lost"

Smoke was rising blithely from the
chimney, and all curious inquirers at

in person, who cheerily informed
them that she was their new minister's
wife, and brought her parsonage
along with her!
The people of Marston could find
no fault with such windfall, but the
people of Links Mills were greatly
agitated.
A member of the church, farmer,
driving into the village with vegetables
next morning, was the first to notice
the absence of the parsonage.
"Wal, I'll be planted and hoed!"
he gasped. "What's missin'?"

Cowslip Greens.

One of the most familiar forms in
wet meadows is enormously known as
"cowslip" (vulgarly 'cowslop~,
general favorite IN springtime for
green's. How it received its common
appellation is not clear. 1t furnishes
q striking illustration OF the ofttimes
uniting and misleading character OF
popular names, for it bears no rela-
ton to the English cowslip, but is
closely allied to the buttcrcup-a fact
suggested to tho uninitiated by its
shining yellow petals and superabun-
dance of stamcns. To avoid complica-
ton in names, tho botanist Gray ia
vored recognizing it under its English
name, marsh -marigold, but here
again we may be led slightly astray as
to its relationship, for it is more than
a primrose. It is properly known as
