Nerves and Fcod.

Sir Henry Thompson, writing in the Nineteenth Century, makes the follow ing remarks upon the altered diet which has become necessary, owing to the ex- traordinary changes affecting man in every rank of life, and his surroundings in all parts of the civilized world, which have taken place during the last sixty years : ‘It is difficult—perhaps imposs- ible—for the present generatiou tolreal- ize the contrast presented in respect of the demand now made on man’s activity, especially that of his brain, during, say, the last thirty or forty years with that which was required by the routine of life as it was in the ‘thirties.’ The wear and tear of existenco has en- ormously inoreased, and the demand for rapid action and intense exertion by the nervous system is certainly ten- fold greater now, to make a moderate estimate, than it was then. A railway appeared in the first year of the decade named ; the penny post and the electric telegraph not until its close ; while the press, both daily and weekly, now

gigantic, was then, by comparison, in-

significant and _ diminutive. Such changes have naturally been the cause injury to many whose powers sufficed for the quiet time, but gave away in large and in— creasing number under the inevitable struggle which issues in ‘the survival of the fittest.’ The necessary result of this extreme demand for brain activity since that organ is the sole source of energy On which all the functions of the body, including that of digestion, depend, is an insufficient supply for this important process. Unde thése circumstances, nothing can be more impertant than to provide food of a kind and inaform which will econo- mise the work of the stomach. It must not be bniky ; much of it may be ad- vantageously soluble in form so as to be rapidly and easily assimilated. I have found nothing which fulfils these conditions so completely as the various concentrated extracts of meat which are now so extensively used.

How to Remove Dandruff.

There is nothing which will ruin the hair so quickly as dandruff. making it look untidy, and causing it to come out, The first step necessary to re- move dandruff and get the scalp in good condition, is to wash it thorough- ly. Use soft water, heated until it is a little warmer than new milk, and dis— solve a little powdered borax in it. Wash until the head is clean, using enough soap to make a good suds, then rinse with clear water, and wipe with a towel. When it is dry, rub a little pomade or vasaline into the roots to supply the oil that was removed by washing. It is not necessary to oil the hair at any other time.

Aiter the hair is clean, keep it so by protecting it with a dusting cap when sweeping, taking up ashes, and other work of that kind. Brush it every night to remove the dust of the day, dividing it into two parts and letting half of it fall over each shoulder. It should be allowed to float loosely if possible. SO that the air may circulate freely through it. Dissolve one ounce each of cum camphor and borax in a quart of water and apply it to the roots of the hair once or twice a week, with a soft Rinse with clear water.

Borax is excellent for the hair, cleans- ing and softening ‘t wonderfully. <A thorough washing should be given it at least once a month.—McCalls Maga- zine

NOTES AND COMMENTS. |

—In the United States the death rate of Jews is but little more than half that of the average American family. Of 1,000 Jews bora 217 die before the age of 7 years, wh le of an equal number of Cbristians 453 die in the same period. Some authorities attribute this mark of bealth in the child- ren to early marriages acd natural lives.

—Bills are about to be introduced inthe Britisb Parliament to authorize the expen- diture of more than $3(0,000,000 on the new railroads, tramways, water supply schemer, and streets in England.

Ooe bill alone from the London County Council to cut a new street from Holborne to the Strand seeks wuthcrty to expend $25. 000,000, while s water-eupply scheme urged by the towns of Sheffield, Derby, and Leicester will cost $60,000,000.

Vast as this aggregate expenditure is it represents searcely more than half the outlay to be incurred ifal! the private bills presented at the coming session pare Parliament. The total is the largest on record, and it denotes that immense pros~ perity is finding an outlet in extraordinary industrial activity and internal develop- ment.

—The New York Journal of Commerce thus Sums up some features in American life: “One United S:a ce Senator is on trial for bank wrecking, another is to be put on trial next week for she eame offence, and the third is a bank defaulter, Severa! are uoder somet! ing more than suspicion of vaving voted oa tariff bills in accord- ance with, opportunities of proficable speculation supplied to them by person: financially interested in the tariff. The Governor of Hlinois hase beeu indicted. Speciai cours?! have reported infavor «f criminal proceedings.against two import. tahtoflicers of the State, and within the year the President of the United States bas appointed two Consuls, one of whom had an undisputed criminal record, while the other bad made himself useful by working ttrougha legislature something uery much like swindle; for participating in the raid of the treasury of this State the governor has removed two bigh offi- cials.”

ESTEEMED EXCHANGES

— Montreal Gazette : It was a long as well a a stormy career that closed with Dr Chiniquy’s deata. His worst enemy would admit that he wasa good fighter,and allcan pay a tributeto the courage that led him, for the sake of what he counted right, to baeak with the church in which he was educated, and in which ke was a special honored pastor. If his breaking away did not have tbe results anticipated by someit was yetan event that set many men thinking, impossible to reconcile the opposing™ views held of bis career; but in as far as his conscience jus.ified bim in the lines he thought fitto follow he wiil,in tle place of his reward, little reck what those he has left behind may say or thiuvk.

FRANCL IS FOR PEACE

—

Lonpon, Jan, 20.—The French ambas-~ sador to Great Britain, M. Pavl Cambon, replying to an address of the ioternacional! arbitration association at the embas+y here. eaid ro feeling of hostility towards the British existed in Fravee. The press, on both sides, had exaggerated the little friction over the Fashoda incident, which was only temporary. He assured the peo» ple of Great Britain that neither the French nor the Government of France desired war, and, speaking from experience, M. Cambon could say that vo European nation desired war. On the contrary, there was an earnest wish for peace, and France cordially eupported the Czar’s aime, but the ambassador feared that their practical realization would be a long time coming.

The fondest anticipation in a woman’slifeis when sheis @a@ looking forward to the com- 4auere ing of the sweet and ten- ‘ der little bundle of hu- manity that will some day call ner mother, It is a pity that this joyful expectancy should ever be clouded with ot 2 solicitude and Jgem dread of the 4

of this excess- By ive anxiety if Mey the prospective y mother will avail herself of the health - sustaining power of Dr. Pierce’s f Favorite Prescription mF taken early during the aaaey expectant period.

The special organs and nerve-centers pertaining to maternity are directly fortified and reinforced by this wonder- ful ‘‘Prescription.’’ It gives the mother genuine, perma- ment strength, capacity and cheerfulness. It renders the ordeal of motherhood abso- lutely safe and comparatively easy; insures against subsequent relapse and prostration; promotes ample and healthful nourishment for the child and endows it witb natural constitutional vigor.

For nearly thirty years Dr. Pierce has been chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N.Y. Any wo- man may consult him either personally or by letter free of charge, and with absoiute assurance of receiving sound, practical advice from the highest professional authority. By enclosin thirty-one one-cent stamps to pay the cos/ 0 customs and ua only, she will receive a paper-bound copy of Dr. Pierce's thousand-page itlustrated book, ‘‘ The People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser," or a handsome cloth-bound copy, for fifty stamps.

Mrs. Fred Hunt, of Burnt Hills, Saratoga Ce., N. Y., says: “I read about Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription being so good for a woman with chiid, so I got two bottles last September, and December 13th, I had a twelve-pound baby girl.

NO SMALL CHANGE

Dean Monahan relates an incident which illustrates the absence of smali | change in the early days of Kansas, In 1868 he went into the postoffice at Hays City, threw down a quarter and asked for a postage stamp. ‘‘ Want only one?”’ queried the postmaster. ‘‘Only one,’’ re- plied the novelist, whereupon the post- master handed him a stamp and raked in the quarter. ‘‘Don’t I get any change?’’ demanded Monahan. ‘‘Change, b—!!’’ replied the government official. ‘‘We have no change in these parts amaller than » quarter!’’

And this was strictly true. In Hays City the emallest coin known was the 25 cent piece. A glass of beer sold for a quarter, and the same charge was made for a pound of crackers or a cigar. It is related in the early annals of the town bow the saloon and dance hall keepers held an indignation meeting to take ac- tion in the case of a new man who ad- vertised to sell two glasses of beer for a quarter. The meeting resulted in the de- parture of the innovator for pastures new. As late as 1872 there was a store in Hays City which never gave any change smaller than the 25 cent piece. If the customer had, say, 15 cents com- ing, he was at liberty to heJp himself to agiass of whisky from a barrel which stood in the corner, but he need not ex- pect his dues in money.—Kansas City Journal.

Catarrh

What is Japanese Catarrh Cure? The newest, safest, surest, most pleasant, harmless and only guaranteed cure to- day. It is a pomade or ointment to be inserted in the nostrils; the natural heat oi the body warms and melts it, and by the very action of breathing it is drawn up into the nasal passages, in an instant makes its potency felt by the opening up of the disease-stopped ciiannels and the soothing, comforting sensation that follows its application. The dull pains leave the head, the inflammation is al- layed, the foul breath becomes sweet and fresh,and the sense of smell returns, that distressing dropping in the throat ceases, the discharges gradually grow less, and in a very short while, by the use of the treatment, the whole taint is eradicated from the system. It’s an antiseptic ; contains no cocaine or oth- er dangerous narcotic, and there’s a guarantee to cure in every package. 123

“IT was troubled with Chronic Ca- tarrh in the head for twenty-five years; spent hundreds of dollara with specialists without any perma- nent benefit; eight years ago I was cured with Japanese Catarrh Cure, and there’s never been a symptom of a return.”’ J.
