Wanted-An Appetite.

Don't be without one. Why go to
the dining room under protest. Don't
try to buy appetite at a dollar a bot
tie. Earn it. One should enjoy eating
and he will, if he has a natural appe-
tite, such as comes to one who works
for it.
The outdoor life creates appetite,
and cold morning bath awakens the
brain. lungs, heart, liver, stomach and
the appetite. An ice bag over tho
stomach for half an hour before meals
is a good natural appetizer for a bed
ridden invalid.
Another method is hot application
over the abdomen for five minutes, fol-
lowed by an ice rub over the same
parts for one or two minutes. This
not only produces an appetite but
stimulates the flow of the digestive
juices and thus furnishes the ability
to digest.

Diet for tuberculosis.

The tubercular patient needs pro-
teids, or tissue-building foods, but only
just the amount which can be assimf
lated and utilized by the body. Any
excess must be treated like poisons,
and hence must be a burden to both
liver and kidneys and a waste of vital
energy.
Proteids must be taken, not only in
moderate quantity, but in the purest
form possible. The vegetable kingdom
presents proteids in combination with
fats in great abundance, and in nuts,
which can be made easily digestible
by thorough chewing or by proper
preparation.
The yolks of eggs afford also a COM
bination of fats and proteids which is
admirably suited to the tubercular pa
tient. Milk, especially rich milk, is
another food adapted to this class of
patients when it does not produce
''biliousness" through indigestion.
Many tubercular patients have dila-
tation of the stomach. Such cases
must avoid milk. Nearly all can take
nuts if the right kind is selected and
great care is taken with the mastica-
ton. Pecans, hickory nuts, almonds
and filberts, pinors, or pine nuts are
the best varieties. Half a pound of
nuts may be taken daily by the con-
sumptive, not only without harm, but
with great benefit, if combined with
other foods. A diet consisting of nuts,
wel1-toasted bread and fruits is per-
feet dietary for the tubercular patient.
The yolks of a dozen eggs may be
used in place Of nuts.

sweetheart, to the end that he might
at least have efficient counsel.
1 saw him, but he emphatically de-
clined to have the lady associated in
any way with the matter. He forbade
me even to seek her and tell her OF
his trouble. He told me if I valued
his friendship to let matters take their
course.
l asked him to explain the circum-
stances of his arrest. l implored him
by an old friendship, to tell me he was
not guilty. All he would say was that
he had been caught by the master OF
the house and had no excuse to make
no defense to offer. His plea of guilty
must stand. When 1 squarely told him

Terrible disgrace to his family!
An awful thing that such a bright,
promising young fellow as Jack should
be a self-confessed burglar. Caught
In the act, by Joye!"
These words, spoken by a mutual
friend of Jack and myself, staggered
me. Jack a burglar! The notion
seemed grotesquely absurd. Jack
iight-hearted, handJbme, honest Jack,
whom 1 had regarded as the soul of
honor. midnight burglar; caught and
admitting his guilt! Such story
seemed utterly impossible.
had known this great overgrown
boy for years and never had believed
him capable of anything mean. l had
even thought him too scrupulous and
stupidity good at times. His life was
an open book. His only fault. If fault
it was, lay in foolish friendship
which had existed between him and a
well-known and extremely handsome
comic opera singer called Connie Cal
cium.
While her infatuation for the ath-
1etic young civil engineer had perhaps
been too conspicuous, the one thing l
had most admired in Jack was the
manly way in which he had always
guarded her good name, and his readi-
ness to resent any disrespectful allu-
sion to the lady at any time.
Jack and l had been in Mexico for
months building bridges and battling
with fevers. On returning to the
States 1 had stayed week in Wash
ington, attending to some private bust
ness, while he had come on to New
York.
Only few days ago we had parted,
both full of bright prospects for the
future. True, I remembered that
Jacks ready money was running low !;
that he would have to economic for
a month or two until some unfinished
work was done. But to imagine he
might become a BURGLAR common
thief-was impossible. Still it was
said, it was printed in ali the news
papers, that he had been caught at
midnight in a millionaire's house in
Fifth avenue, caught on the threshold
of room occupied by Mrs. Vicersby
the millionaire's wife, and wherein
was many thousand dollars worth of
diamonds. 1t was even suggested that,
had he not been providentially discov-
cred. he might have added murder to
his crime.
What should 1 do? He must with
draw his plea. He must at least be
properly defended. I was in an even
worse financial plight than he had
been, and in all the world could only
think of Connie Calcium, who might
aid him. But how could l find her:
While in Washington l had heard some
vague rumorS of her having married
and left the stage. Even if she could be
found. disliked the idea of appealing
to her in Jacks behalf.
went to Jacks old rooms and with
some difficulty obtained admission
from the crusty landlady, who vowed
her house had been disgraced by hav
ing harbored a "second-story sneal
thief" Looking sorrowfully around,

1 left the prison, thoroughly Devil
