TABLE TALK OVER THE
COFFEE.

The talk that evening began with the
fad of the Vegetarians" and their be-
liefs. 1t soon developed that the beauti-
full Miss Schuyler thought herself a
vegetarian" vBut," said DIR. Smith,
uwhat do you eat ?" vAll kinds of veget-
ables and fruit,D said she, wthen drink
milk, have eggs for breakfast, besides at
other meals l eat butter, pudding, cheese
and cake, and tell every one they ought
to do as 1 do, feel so much better"
The doctor looked astonished. Wand
you call that vegetarian? Mydear young
woman don't you know that butter, eggs
and milk are animal foods? Then, too,
it is a mistake to urge others TO follow
you. What is good for you may not be
good for others. The Esquimo of the
Arctic regions couldn't support life on a
vegetable diet. Some animal food is
necessary to keep heat in his body. On
the other hand, besides the individual
peculiarities and the climate, the condi-
tons under which each person lives,
would make it mistake for you 10 rec
ommend TO everybody to follow your
example" "At the SAME time" con-
tinued the doctor, II have come to the
conclusion that fully one-haH Of the

chronic complaints which embitter life
are due to stomach disorders which
could just as we'll be avoided" vNow,
DIR. Smith," interrupted Miss Schuyler,
~ know you're going to tell us all just
what to do and that when our stomach be-
gins to trouble us and we have dyspepsia
or what not, we are all to march in line,
one after the other, into your Office and
have our stomach pumped out, No
thank you, tried that when l had dys-
pepsia, heart palpitations' and dizzy
spells so bad / thought I'd go mad,
and then when 1 struck the pump treat
ment 1 thought I'd go madden! But
fortunately just about that time l saw
something in the paper which made me
stop and think. l said, if hundreds of
others can be cured by such simple treat
ment as taking DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery three times day, think
I'll try. l did try, and in two months 1
was sound and we'll again-without those
horrid stomach pumps, and then best of
all, wrote to DIR. r. V. Pierce, at Buff
falo, N. Y, and asked his advice in my
case, and he told me how toNsre for
myself, how to exercise, diet, etc, and
that didn't cost me a cent Then l
bought: his book, the Common Sense
Medical Adviser, and ppw-I know just
exactly how to live to be hundred in
the shade" e..

A Chinese Fish Story.

Gloat over this, o We disciples of Nun

We followers in the footsteps of Ana
Mas:
"Some days ago an enormous fish
thirty-six feet long was caught in the
vicinity of Peitang, near Tangku. 1t was
cut up and sold in the surrounding viz
lagos. The carcass of the fish was
probably poisonous, as 300 inhabitants
who had eaten of it are deadsand many
others are ill.'
