Autouraphs at Auction,

A remarkably interesting autograph
manuscript Of John G. Whittier was
sold at auction in New York lately.
It consists Of twenty-five verses of
four lines each Of his beautiful poem.
Another interesting item in
the same sale was q fine
four-page letter OF Oliver Wen
dell Holmes, dated Dec. 20, 1866, re-
lating to his address to the New Eng.
land Society and discussing his views
Of slavery. Still another item Of great
interest a a letter of three pages
written by Washington Irving to Dan
lei Webster In regard to the formers
recent appointment as minister to
Spain.

Matter Made Quite Plain.

A writer In the Lancet says the Chi.
cago Recordrierald, generously sets
himself to the task of giving out valu'
able information as To the amount of
food one should eat. He proceeds to
make the matter plain to the masses
by saying:
IF you desire to know how much
you ought to eat per diem you must
first determine whether you are tenn
peramentally anabolic or katobolic.
Then, taking into account your age,
sex. size, the amount OF exercise you
get and the temperature Of the atmos.
phere. you should calculate the
amount Of food necessary to maintain
the minimum weight Of your body
consistent with the best health Of
which you are capable"
Hereafter there should be no ex.
cuse whatever Tor ~overeating or
undertaking. The anabolic should
be able to jump up and crack his
heels together ut least four times,
and the katobolic ought to fnd Il
easy to turn fiipHapj without the use
OF the hands. In view OF the simple.
ity Of the thing 1t Is surprising that
this whole matter was not disposed
Of long, long ago to the best interests
Of all concerned.
