A traveller in Persia thus describes a
dinner served in the household of
wealthy Persian: "The chief dish con-
sists of a fowl boiled to rags, surround

raisins. There is a Shiraz wine, clear.
golden red liquid that has Travelled

This delicacy is somewhat akin to

eaten in private, for it renders the mas

When Napoleon entered Genoa in
1865, the rich patrieians Of the city

of the conqueror by all sorts of fiat

Cleopatra.

Thousands of people actually think
themselves to death every year by al
lowing their minds to dwell on morbid
subjects.
AS a rule, the thought that kills re-

world. There is the germ of fatal
thought in ninety-nine persons in every
hundred, and the exception is only
proof against the thought disease by
having been inoculated with the lymph
of optimism or philosophy.
The idea that one has some incipient
disease in ones system, the thought of
financial ruin, that one is getting on IN
life without improving prospects-any
of them or a thousand similar
thoughts may carry a healthy man to
premature grave. A melancholy

who would settle down to suffer from
smallpox and chance recovery, as thou
sands of foolish persons settle down to
let the thought disease, which has at.

Every melancholy thought, every
morbid notion and every nagging wor-

and the patient should be physicked by
cheerful thoughts, of which there is a

ALIASES OF THE PEANUT.

sobriquet which makes it almost un-
recognizable to its old acquaintance.
