Sir Robert Hart whose knowledge

who thus stopped the advance OF the

That the Chinese defeated the French

There are two things to learn from

Of all news which ls not reported by an

a Word to Tn. rhi".

A great deal has been written by
physicians for the benefit Of fat
persons who desire to reduce their
weight, but the discontented at the
other end of the scale, who long
for more covering on their bones,
! are very generally left to discover
FLOR themselves, if they can. a
means to gain their end.
Thinness, like obesity. may be
due to some constitutional defect
in nutrition, often running in the
family, or it may be symptom Of
chronic disease. A gradual loss OF
flesh, occurring without any appar-
ent cause, in one who has been in
previous good condition, is sus-
picious sign, and should lead one
to seek a careful medical examina
ton, so that the caus-, whatever
it may be, may be discovered and
corrected while there is time.
Other persons have always been
too thin, while seeming in 9th Ter
respects to be in fair health. To
such few simple directions may
be OF service.
Thin persons are very apt to be
nervously strung, fretting over tri-
fles, and borrowing trouble on
every possible occasion. They
sleep poorly, dream much, and are
always in state Of unrest in their
waking hours. They are not un
commonly rather large caters, but
their food is for the most part
m eat, and is bolted with very little
mastication.
Ii will be of little use to modify
the diet in such cases unless the
nervousness is treated at the same
time. The person must avoid all
things which stimulate the nervous
system-cxciting novels and theat-
rical pieces, the use of tobacco,
coffee, tea, etc. The diet should
consist largely of articles of a fat
tening nature, such as starchy
vegetables, sweets, butter and fat
meats. Meals should be small but
frequent. A certain amount OF
nourishmen: taken in six portions
will make more flesh than the same
amount divided into three meals.
Chocolate may be substituted
for the morning tea or coffee.
Water should be drunk in large
quantities at other than meal-time,
but fluids should be taken sparing-
ly with the meals. Codliver oil,
| II it does not nauseate, should be
taken regularly; il it cannot be toll
Grated, cream may be substituted.
The night hours OF sleep should
be long. and nap may be taken
with advantage in the middle Of
