l.: lam sometimes lost in delight as read
the confident and generous directions Of
some man who has solved the problem OF
correct living and given his gospel to the
world. How much better for amy imagined
Millennium will that be when we conform
all our vile bodies to his body; what Il
sweet uniformity when we all cat and
drink and sleep aud dress and exercise ex
actly as he has found it best for him. The
process Of natural selection has been car.
ricd quite far enough. Let us he of one
mind and one diet; bran Of one bran, flesh
of one flesh. We shall all goto BID at one
hour, and that right early-except the edi-
tors of morning journals, who will have
dispensation to die carly. We shall all
rise, like a bed of crocuses in the spring.
at IL very early hour, and all together
Sickness will not excuse us, for there will
be no excuse for sickness At the same
moment we shall all bc engaged in taking
AL air bath, sponge bath, a dry rub; and
then, dressing according to tabular s,
of CURES, furnished by the central autbori-
ty, showing the proper weight of each gar
mcnt according to the temperature indi-
Gated by the thermometer, we shall all
take a brisk walk Of eleven minutes. We
shall all saw wood for half an hour, if We
have no lifting machine, and then sit down
to breakfast, to consist of half a pint Of til
tered water Gree from all animal sub
stanccs) and two quarters of q dried apple,
or any other fruit in season, to be eaten
with the utmost cheerfulness, and even
with little moderate hiarity. A dried
apple without hilarity is to be avoided


After breakfast we are to go to our va
rious occupations with clear mind and
an elastic frame. by IL o'clock we shall
be quite ready for dinner. This meal is
to bc varied every day in he wcek-dif-
tcrcnt kinds Of bran bread different kinds
of cracked wheat, different kinds Of dried
apples, and other sorts OF fruit which do
not contain a certain kind of acid which
is hostile to the standard stomach of the
returmcr whom we follow, to be eaten
with q great d, al Of nerruent (no matter
who has died or who has gone into bank
ruptcy), to be eaten in large quantities.
In fact, We are to eat all we want at this
king meal, with one restriction. We are
to leave off hungry and HILARIOUS. Our
dinner is not to cost over eight cents, OK.

pays the bill. After dinner you may take
siesta of twenty minutes and nap in your
chair; but do not lie down and sleep with

food is absolutely prohibited. These
directions may seem unimportant
but nothing is trivial to an imnor-
tai man, us you will feel when you 60 to
your business with springing step, a
sparkling eye, glowing checks, fire in
every limb, exultant blood in every MUS
Gle, and the consciousness that you have
no butchers bill, grocer's bill, or milk
man s; that you owe no man dollar, and
can keep all the commandments iust as
easy as you can wink. AS you walk along
the street, you occasionally jump into the
air four or five feet, or leap over the
boundary fence and back, and laugh aloud


At supper it is best for you to eat moth
ing, except your own chrertulnrss. But,
if nature will have something, try a little
brown bread, raised without yeast, slowly
mast icating it, thinking about butter. and
being careful to call up no image Of cX-
cessivc laughter, for this is HE time to
begin to tranquillzc the mind and prepare
for self-satisticd sluml~r.


OF course it must be understood that all
you cat must he carefully weighed. This
not only guards against excess, but it in
duces careful and ncthodical habit of
mind. When you go Oh: to dinner, You
will carry your own scales with You and
weigh your own food at the table. H. is
important to notice that beans, urcon-
taminatcd by pork, may he eaten on Sun
days and the 4th of July.-C. u. Wuync,
