Stimulants as Retarding Diges-| tion.

a A eorre spon lent writes :—*The ex: | tended consumption of one or the other of this class of substance points to the existence of some beneficial effect to be | derived therelrom, altbough what this consisted in it has been diffienit to say, otherwise than subjectively.

judgio

Sir William Roberts, of Manchester, | has lately suggested an ingenious hypo-|

' ; : . 8 thesis, which offers a plausible ex- |

trary, everything is done with the view | of facilitating digestion,by the removal | f indigestible parts of the food, or by |

ibmilting them to processes whic)!

favor the action of the juices with! which they are to be brought into coa-| tact. Under these circumstances it is | quite possible that digestion and ass:m lation may proceed at a speed not only | unnecessary, but disturbing to the equilibrium the organism and provocation waste. The employment oi a.cohol, tea, coffee, etc., wouid iond to correct this undesirable acceleration of the assimi- lative process ; for Sir W. Roberts has proved, by a series of carefully con- ducted experiments, that their effect is powerfully to retard the action of the various digestive ferments on the foods; and it may be that the instinctive sense of the benefit thereby derived lies at 4@ root OF the yearning of all civilised nations for such substances. Again some condiment, such as common sal is added, to restore sapidity to articles | from which the salts have been, removed | ia the process of cooking ; and, taken in exeess, 1t Only throws extra work on the! rgons of exeretion.—British Medical

The Wrong Man.

“Excuse me,” he said, as he halted a} gentleman in the corridor of the City | Hall, “but will you lend me your eye; glasses a moment !”

He put them on bis nose to read a letter, and returned them with:

“Thanks! Have you the correct time? Ah! Tenthirty!” -

He set his watch and confidentially ; inquired :

“Haven’t any tobacco about you, eh ,

He was handed a box, and after help- ing himself to aliberal share, he re- marked :

“IT want to maila letter in the box here, but I find 1 have no postage stamps. if you—?”.

He was banded a stamp. When he had licked it on and mailed his letter, he said :

“I’m going up Michigan avenue to Twelfth street. Do you happen to have a couple of street car tickets ?”

; | exclaimed the other. “I can stand about so much, but after that—!’
