Rules to Be Observed Tn the Matter
 /. of Diet and Exercise. !. ;
 Positively avoid a habitual diet com posed too exclusively of one kind of food, such as meats or cereals. Such a diet leads inevitably to disease. Many cases of sickness, palpitations, scuryy, skin diseases and headache are directly due to this improper diet.
 Bear in mind that sugar and all sugared or sirupy substances, unless sparingly used, are the most injurious of the foods in ordinary use. They render digestion. imperfect and by their seductive taste are liable to in duce overeating. ...- ,.a .. zv~s
 Eat sparingly of fruit, preserves, veal, pork, young lamb, kid, ham, ba- con, sugar, vinegar, spices, fats, oils, fried foods, pastries, cakes, rich des- serts, strong gravies, hot freshly baked bread and foods which form adherent 7Pastes.
 r Avoid cold drinks at mealtime, ex- cept in hot days. Avoid uncomforta- bly, hot drinks. Avoid eating at irreg- ular hours. Never overrule your appe- tite, which is the best index of the amount of food you need, except in the course of diseases that require a special diet. ..-. .,- -. -...
 Satisfy your appetite, not your glut- tony; satisfy your thirst, not your craving.
 Salt your food sufficiently, because salt is an aid to digestion, but not more than needed to suit the taste
 Eat less rapidly and chew your food more. The stomach wants only we'll chewed food. The teeth were made for that special purpose. If they are poor or missing, seek the dentists aid.
 Avoid violent exercise and severe mental exertion just after meal, but a moderate exercise, as walking, will aid digestion.
 Wash your hands with soap and wa ter before each meal, even if they do not appear unclean.
 Brush your teeth inside and outside at least once day, and rinse your mouth after each meal.
 When your stomach is out of order, give it a rest by fasting half a day or by taking only little fluid food
 Remember that the wholesomest meats are beef, mutton and poultry and that beef and mutton are most easily digested and wholesome when broiled, roasted or stewed, not fried.
 Remember that pure water is the most natural and wholesome beverage. A glass of pure water every morning before breakfast will go far toward preventing sickness and extending life toward the century mark

How to Fu1nignte So as to Destroy Contagious Disease Germs.

How to Fu1niEnte So to Destroy
 Contagious Disease Germs.
 Among the most powerful disinfect- ants are dry heat, moist heat, carbolic acid, chloride of lime, corrosive subli- mate, formaldehyde and sulphur. Dry heat Is fair. but moist heat is better. A half hours boiling at the tempera- ture of PIP degrees will kill anything. An excellent stock solution is made by dissolving four ounces chloride of lime in one gallon of water. This can be diluted. The active agent here is chlorine gas. Buy the chloride of lime in closely stopped bottles. Cor rosive sublimate is used in two strengths, part to 2,OOO or part to 6,OOO. It comes in tablets. One tablet dissolved in a quart of water gives a solution of to 2,O0O.
 Carbolic; acid is more expensive and not as eficacious. Six teaspoonfuls should be allowed to pint of water. Formaldehyde is a powerful germicide and is now largely usur-ing the place of sulphur. A novelty in the prep aration of sulphur for fumigation is the little sulphur candles which retail at 10 cents each. A shallow tin cup is filled with a cake of sulphur, having a tube of cotton in the middle. This is set in pan of earth, ashes or water, the muslin is lighted and the door closed.
 In using the rolled or four sulphur allow two pounds of the former and one pound of the latter to each 1000 cubic feet to be fumigated. Break up the rolled sulphur in small pieces, put into an iron pot, empty over 1t the flour sulphur and over this in turn four ounces wood alcohol, light and es- cape from the room with as much ra- pidity as possible. Before lighting the sulphur have all cracks at doors and windows stopped up and mattress thoroughly exposed. Stuff the crack of the exit door and keyhole and leave the room for 12 or 24 hours before ven- tilating.
 The German method of cleansing the wall paper in a room after fumigaing by wiping with the soft part of loaf of bread Is to be commended.
