ALL FAT MEN NOT LAZY.
Many Have Been Very Active and In
dustriOus in the Line of
Literature.

Eat is not an indication of laZiness,"
said William Bailey, of the government
printing Office, who is one of the latest
and squarest men in the employ Of I'm
Gle Sam, reports the Washington Star.
Il am not putting myself in the list OF
'peart and brainy' fat men, but if one
will take the trouble to look about him
he will find good many heaTyweights
who are not poky and slow, and who are
fully up to the average, mentally. Some
of the greatest men the world ever
knew were plump, even to obesity, and
Napoleon was one of these.
"All these fellows with the withered
and parchment look do not possess all
the brain by any manner of means, but
it is said that the men of letters in an
cient times looked this way because they
were poorly paid and consequently lived
on slim raions.

heavyweight literary men Of the present
day. and l am not disposed to say that

paid and fare more sumptuously every
day.
"Dr. Johnson was feshy, even to
clumsiness, and so was his biographical
shadow, Boswell. Balsac was so stout
that it was a good days exercise to
walk around him; and he was encircled
with bandages, as though he was a
hogshead. Rossini was a regular
Jumbo, and for seven years he never
saw his knee. Lablanche was charged
three fares when he travelled, and Jules
Janin. the prince OF critics, had chin and
cheeks which protruded beyond his
whiskers.
"And so a whole list could be given.
Lord Byron and Eugene Sue, the au-
thor of "The Wandering Jew" so dread
ed becoming fat that they took lemon
and vinegar to prevent it, and many fat
people of the present day are taking
something of the kind to prevent too
much flesh"

shooter in Morgan's corps. It was a
custom in those days for rlhemen to
shoot for a prize, generally a gallon Of
rum-for old Medford was the standing
tipple. On one occasion a large oak
tree had been blazed near the ground
and in the circle small piece of white
paper was fastened by a brass nail
The distance to be fired was over 100
yards. Several close shots had been
made and 1t became Murphy's turn to
fire He lay down on the ground at
full length, resting his rife on his hat
as the others had done, and, aftei
glancing over the barrel, he was heard
to say: Sure, and believe can hit
that nall" Again he sighted his piece
fired and the paper fell. An exami-
nation showed a center shot; the ball
had driven the nail exactly in.
In person Murphy was stout and well
made, handsome in face, with Jet black
hair and an eye that would kindle and
fash Ike the lightning when excited;
quick as q cat in all his movements
and possessing an iron frame that
nothing apparently could affect What
moreover, is very remarkable is that
in the most dangerous duty that wal
could possibly detail on him, In which
he passed seven years Of army life, his
body was never wounded or even
SCARED.

OVER-EATING AND COLDS.
FOrtifying the System Against
This Affection.

The invariable cause of colds comes
from within, not without No one takes
cold when in a vigorous state Of health,
with pure blood coursing through the
body, and there is no good reason why
anyone in ordinary health should have
cold, says the Science of Health. 1t
may come from insufficient exercise,
breathing of foul air, want of wholesome
food, excess Of food, lack of bathing,
ETC., but always from some violation Of
the plain laws Of health.
There can be no more prolific cause
of colds than highly seasoned foods, as
we'll as frequent eating. These give no
time for the digestive organs to rest,
and incite an increased flow Of the di-
gestive secretions. Thus larger guam
titles of nourishmeht are absorbed than
can be properly utilized, and the result
is an obstruction, commonly called
"cold," which is simply an effort Of the
system to expel the useless material.
Properly speaking, it is self-poisonlng,
due to an incapabllity of the organism
to regulate and compensate for the dis
turbance.
A deficient supply of pure air to the
lungs is not only a strong predisposing
cause of colds, but prolific source OF
much graver conditions. Pure air and
exercise are necessary to prepare the
system for the assimilation of nutri-
ment, for without them there can be no
vigorous health. The oxygen OF the air
we breathe regulates the appetite as well
as the nutriment that is built up in the
system.
The safest and best way to avoid colds
is to sleep in a room with the windows
wide open, and to remain out Of doors
every day, no matter what may be the
weather, for at least two hours, prefer
ably with some kind Of exercise, If no
more than walking. One should not
sit down to rest while the feet are wet
or the clothing damp. A person may 60
with the clothing wet through to the
skin all day, if he but keeps moving.
Exercise keeps up the circulation and
prevents taking cold.
The physiologic care Of colds is the
prevention Of their occurrence. The
person who does not carry around an
oversupply Of alimentation in his syS-
tenn, and furthermore secures a purified
circulation by strict sanitary cleaDli-
ness, thus placing himself in positive
condition, is immune to colds. A starv-
ing man cannot take cold.
A careful diet would exclude the use
of all narcotics and all food that is not
thoroughly appropriated An overfed
person is worse off than one who is I'M
derfed, because the overfed body ia taxed
to dispose of what cannot be appropri-
ated, and, when not properly disposed
Of, remains only to be an element OF
danger

SHE LIES AMONG MOBILES.
Humble Fruit Seller OF Genoa has "
Grave Among AristOcrats
of Italy.

The most unique piece in the Gem
eterv at Genoa is life-size figure OF an
old woman who sold fruit and fried
cakes on the streets for 40 years, and
was known TO every citizen.
She had no family or friends depend
ent upon her, and for many years be-
fore her death became infatuated with
q determination to be buried among the
aristocracy in the Campo Santo, and
have a monument as fine as those of the
rich people who are buried there.
She saved her money, and employed
the most famous sculptor in Genoa, who
made a striking likeness OF the old lady
in the same garb that she wore while
peddling her wares upon the street,
and before her death she had the sat-
isfaction of selecting and paying for
one of the most conspicuous places in
the cemetery, where the monument now
stands.
This old woman and Balilla, a boy
who threw the stone that brought on
war between Austria and Italy are the
two favorite characters among the COM
mon people in Genoa. The latter has
statue in one of the public squares.
The stone he threw hit an Austrian
soldier. who fired a shot into crowd
of people. The latter, furious with in
dignation, charged the troops with ev-
cry missile they could seize, and the
rest of the story is told in history.
Balilla is regarded as a patriot, al
though he may have meant only mis-
chief

SOCIETY AT A DISTANCE.
DOinGs of People of Importance in
Small Towns Taken I'D Dy
Large City Dailies.

Society at distance Is one Of the
amusements furnished to readers OF
metropolitan dailies. These organs OF
urban thought agree in deeming society
ludicrous If it is the society of any small
place, says the News from Turkey Creek,
"V. w. Hancock and family" says pa
per in Iowa, land Uncle John Clarke
had more places to eat and to be enter
tanned last week than they could attend
to-" This information is printed in
New York without comment, as funny
in itself, but description Of the conflict
of engagements Of any person prominent
in the social eddy Of a great city might
be a serious little special" AS an In
diana journal observes: Mrs. William
Thompson has her second crop OF let
tuce, which speaks volumes for our Won
derful soil and climate" Why is the
lettuce of Mrs. Thompson ridiculous?
"The minister arrived on time, and just
as the morning star cast his rays
athwart the billowy fields of Indian
Creek, Lee Hawkins and Ira Eddy were
made man and wife" So far from laugh
ing at this West Virginia style, we only
wish it would be initiated in the society
columns of large places 1t is the deadly
solemnity with which the metropolitan
Journals chronicle the fact that certain
ladies were seen driving upon the av-
enue yesterday that adds the most ex-
cruciating quality to this conspicuous
department of the news. A superiority
Of smaller places is that personal infor-
nation is printed to satisfy the natural
desire to know something about our
friends. When the people Of Helton-
Vile, Ind, read that Curt Sowder blew
In Thursday driving an enterprising-
looking mule hitched to buggy" they
learn a fact in which any healthy resi-
dent of Heltonville, Ind, ought to be
interested. When, however, a resident
Of New York, Philadelphia or Baltimore
reads a page about the meals, clothes,
and visits of individuals Of no impor-
lance, whom he never met, he is indulg-
Ing in about as trivial an interest as the
range Of possible reading affords.

HETTY GREEN GOT EVEN.
ditiOns Laid Down by Her
Neighbour.

Hetty Green had q way Of taking care
of her own even in her youth. A
Vermont neighbor tells that while she
was living on a New England farm, she
had for a neighbor a particular old bach
elor. One day, relates the Burlington
Clipper, while the threshers were at
work in her wheat crop, the winnowing
fan broke and she sent over in great
haste to borrow her neighbours machine.
Certainly" was the reply, Mrs.
Green may use the fan, but I make it
rule never to allow my implements to be
taken from my farm. The machine Is
in the barn and she may bring her grain
there to be winnowed," an offer 1t was
manifestly impossible to accept.
Mrs. Green had not forgotten the i'm
piled refusal when the old bachelor sent
his hired man over one morning to bor-
row her slde-saddle for the use Of Wis
iting relative.
81 shall be only too glad to favor him."
was the reply sent back by the astute
Mrs. Green, "but never allow anythingI
own to be carried off the farm My sad
die is hanging across beam in the barn
loft. Tell Mr.. Browne to send his aunt
over. She may ride there as long as she
likes"
