Appetite and Hunger.

doctor of long experience. appetite
Is what makes Il man drink or smoke
and what makes most men and wom-
en- eat. Many so through life never
knowing what hunger really is |
often fast sixty hours and never feel
the worse for II. A friend of mine, a
physician In Brooklyn, goes without
food sixteen days at n stretch and
keeps up his work meanwhile. There
isn't an organ that can contract any
disease from lack of food. Most of
them do become diseased through the
effort to take care of too much food.
They are all In better tone after u fast.
Another thing, hunger is felt only in
the mouth and throat. That gone feel
ing that many complain of Is not hun
ger; that is form of disease. If per-
sons would eat only when they were
hungry and only as much as hunger,
not appetite, called fer--well, we doc
tors would have to fast. New York

appeared to take but little interest in

clan appeared ON the platform he found
himself face TO face With an audience
numbering exactly seven persons.
Iiszt stepped very calmly to the front
and, bowling respectfully TO the array
of empty benches, he delivered himself
as follows:
Ladies' and gentlemen, feel eN-

BY Zoe A. Hutchings
Copyright. 1901, by z. A. IIutchings


The prime minister mopped his fore
head and the duchess dried her eyes
They had just been through trying
ordeal with her majesty the queen,
who ''would not marry the Duke Rel
mar and would not marry the Prince
Corray, state reasons or no state rea-
sons" The minister and the duchess,
the young queens mother had yielded
and had sent her highness, triumphant,
Into the garden to make her proposal
to her favored subject, the Earl of
Norwood.
Queen Marie wandered along the gar
den paths until she espied Lord Nor
wood, and then she began plucking
proach.
"Ah. my queen" he said, bending his
knee and pressing her hand to his lips.
You will hurt these tender hands with
the cruel thorns. ! shall break the
roses for you"
Il have 10 tell you something" she
said, with aSerted eyes.
"Do you really care? Have they con
scented? Oh, my queen. never dared
hope
Consented TO what. prayf" she said
coldly 81 haven't told you anything"
"N-no," he stammered
They walked on In silence between
the rows of blooming aZalea bushes.
Suddenly she said, with an impatient
movement of her hands;
Il wish | were a dalrymaid."

walked toward the castle. He was not
prepared for this development and

anything but stare after her. Recov-
