Uii Th.T1C NUGGETS,
Many please people really oat much
less food than their• neighbors, This
ought to teach us that it is not
what we oat but what we digest that
nourishes us, Wo eat suflieiently as
to quantity, but not properly as to
the manner of eating, Ordinarily
the digestive organs are oalled on to
wear out and get rid of more food
than they really appropriate, This
is a double oxLl avagance, (lest, as to
the honey cost of living—a material
waste—and 00000(1, In the wear and
tear of health, which is a moral,
spiritual and irrecoverable waste, for
which there is no vicarious atone-
ment.
If there were a physiological Web-
ster, and he should bo asked the sec-
ret of Oldie perfection, bo would un-
doubtedly answer, "masticate, mas-
ticate, masticate!"
At -present we bolt our food, and
turn our stomachs into storage cel -
]ars of unprepared ensilage.
Tile breakfast foods have degener-
ated into breakfast fads.
Nantby pamby stomachs that have
been coddled and babied, get no-
tions that they "can't eat this and
they can't eat that" perfectly ra-
tional and wholesome dish. The
normal stomach relishes and thrives
on any or all of them.
One smothers his cereal in sugar
and salt, and then wonders why oat-
meal or cracked wheat or hominy al-
ways gives ]rim "heartburn."
Another takes everything of the
kind in the form of a thin gruel—a
drink rather than a food.
The morning cereal should bo cook-
ed well, but left of such firm consis-
tency that it demands slow and
thorough mastication. Thus pre-
pared
ro-pared it will "set well."- on the
weakest stomach.
Tho dry flaked foods aro all of
them good in this respect, that they
require mastication and insalivation
before they, can be swallowed.
Eat your breakfast—not drink it.
HBALTH
ri
TOO MUCH TOOTH BRUSH.
"X was amused to see a dentist
quoted the other day as urging
everybody to use a tooth brush
three times every day for not less
than three minutes at a time."
"Now, I would Like to see the sot of
teeth that could hold out long
against such treatment. It would
rub the enamel off in a short time.
."One-third the amount of cleaning
recommended is what one really
needs. The use of a tooth brusff
once ad
day for throe e i ut
is is suf-
ficient. Then there can bo used with
that in the evening the silk floss
which is so good for taking from be-
tween the teeth anything that may
have lodged there.
"Even in using a tooth brush once
a clay, it is bettor not to rub it dir-
ectly across tho surface of the teeth,
but to slant it. holding the point
down so that it cleans the spaces
between the teeth as well as the
front of tho teeth and removes the
full force of the contact from the
teeth. 1 have had many patients
who have literally rubbed the en-
amel from their tenth by the exces-
sive use of a brush.
"The average American uses a
brush too much and not too little.
In addition to beteg careful with
the brush, it is also important to
see that the bristles are soft and not
hard. Tooth powder should be used
only once a day.
"Many of my patients nowadays
use the pointed orange sticks for the
teeth. They, aro very good to keep
them clean and serve in a way the
purpose of both the brush and the
stick. They are often used to put
on tooth powder and keep the teeth
in excellent condition,'' •
The commonest disease to which
the tenth are subject, and the ono
that. has puzzled the dentists most,
is- a decay of the enamel that is
caused by a microbe, but is so far
incurable. Tho enamel begins to
disappear, and the process cannot be
stopped.
;the only thing that can bo dote is
to remedy tho ravages that the dis-
ease makes, anel this is nowadays ac-
complished wonderfully. The teeth
after the enamel is gond aro covered
with porcelain, and they are made
to look exactly like a new set of
teeth. This porcelain is strong
enough to hold in any, ordinary
Cage.
The results of this disease, which
grows daily commoner, were for a
while considered duo to excessive
rubbing of the teeth. But the phy-
sicians have now decided that it
comes from another cause, although
its effects are much aggravated by
the use of a hard brush and too
much rubbing,

SCIATICA CURED,
ANOTHER TRIUMPH FOR DR.
WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS,
Ml:, Etsell, of Walkerton, Suffered
For Months and Got no Relief
Until Ito Began the Use of
These Pills,
Of tho many employees of R. Tru-
ax & Co„ Walkerton, Ont„ none
stands higher in the conficicroe of
his employers than door Mr. Thos.
J. ]itsoll., Pre is an excellent me-
01101ric, and has boon in the employ
of this firm for upwards of ton
years. But although Mr. Etsell now
rattles among the few men who aro
never absent from their post of
duty, the time was when bo was as
often absent as present, all because
of physical inability to perform his
work. For years Mr. liltsell was a
groat sufferer from sciatica, and at
times the suffering became so
tense that that for days he was unable
to leave the house.
During these years, Mr. Etsell, as
may readily bo imagined, was con-
tinually on the lookout for some
remedy that would rid him of the
disease, but for a long time without
success. Doctors were consulted and
although he took the treatment pre-
scribed, it did not help him. Then
ho tried electric treatment, but this
also failed to give relief, and in do-
spair ho had about made up his
mind that his case was hopeless and
that he would bo a suffering, help-
less cripple to tbo end of his days.
Then ono day a neighbor advised
hien to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
At first ho refused, believing they
would prove lilce other medicines,
but the neighbor was so insistent,
having herself been greatly benefit-
ed by these pills, so that at last he
consented. Tho remainder of the
story may best bo told in his own
words.
"When X began taking these pills,"
said Mr. Etsell to a reporter of the
Telescope, "I had been off work for
throe months. The cords of my right
leg were all drawn up, and I could
only limp about with the aid of my
stick. The pain I suffered was ter-
rible. 1 could not sleep at all dur-
ing the night, and I was in misery
both night and day. At first I
thought the pills were doing me no
good but after I had taken six
boxes I fancied I was feeling better.
and was encouraged to continue the
treatment. After that I got bettor
every day, and by the time I bad
taken about fifteen boxes every ves-
tige of pain had disappeared. For
over a year," continued Mr, Etsell
"I have not had a twinge of pain,
and although I am forty years of
age I feel as well as when I was
twenty. Pink Pills cured me, and I
haveest o hesitation n anon- in announcing
them the best medicine in the worl
for sciatica."
The cure of Mr. Etsell proves that
Dr. Williams' Pink Pillsare not an
ordinary medicine, and that their
power to cure in all troubles of the
blood or nerves places them beyond
all other medicines. You can get
these pills from any medicine dealer
or direct by mail at 50 cents a box

HOOKED A BIRD.
Scotch Fisherman Has a Strange
Experience,
An old Aberdeenshire fisherman
who fishes daily in Cruden Bay has
had all exciting fight with a great
northern river diver, a somewhat
rare bird which can dive a groat
depth for any fish it may fancy.
The man was plying his rod about
a natio from rho shore, when sudden-
ly he felt a series of unusually pow-
erful tugs at his lino. Be began
pulling in the catch, and had hauled
it nearly aboard, despite a resistance
which lashed tho water into a fury,
when the diver suddenly darted from
the sea into his face with a force
that almost hurled him overboard.
Bofors he could recover himself, the
bird swooped clown again, and then
whirled r'ourrd him. In one of its
mad dashes it split open the back of
his hand; in another, it struck him
above the eye with its beak, inflict-
ing a wound two inches long and
laying the hone bare.
'Using one of the boat stretchers as
a weapon, the fisherman was able,
with a lucky blow, to break the
wing of his infuriated assailant, and
then 1ci11 it. Ile rowed ashore, and
bis wounds wore stitched by a doc-
tor.
Tho diver was found to measure
throe feet across the wings and when
tbo bird was crit Open a small hook-
ed whiting was discovered. Tho
bird hacl no doubt seen the fish
wriggling on the line, and diving
twenty foot had swallowed it and
been also hooked.

THE FREAKS OF MEMORY
MARVELLOUS FACULTY FOR
REMEMBERING.
In Soma Persons the Gift Is De-
veloped to an Uncanny
Degree.
Extraordinary memories have at,
traotod the attention of mon in all
ages, and in those days a man with
a retentive memory is considered to
be more or lass gifted. Some good
instances of lemnrkctblo momo`iss aro
to be gathered from the records of
Greece and Rome. ThentisLocles, a
famous Greek general is said to have
known every citizen in Athens, No
doubt Otho, the Boman Emperor,
owed much of liis success to a re-
markable memory. 13o learned the
name of every soldier and officer to
Ms army, and this, among other
things, rendered him so popular that
he was acclaimed Emperor.
Conning to later times, the follow-
ing anecdote affords an instance of
wandorful powers of memory. An
Englishman want to Frederick the
Groat of Prussia for the express pur-
pose of giving hire an exhibition of
his powers of recollection. Frederick
sent for Voltaire, who was Hien re-
siding at the Prussian court, At the
King's request Voltaire read a long
poem which he had jest composed.
Tho Englishman ivns present and was
in such a position that he could hear
every word of the poen, though ho
was concealed from Voltaire's notice.
After the reading of the poem, Fred-
erick observed to the ,Author that the
production could not bo an original
one, as there was a foreign gentle-
man present who could recite every
word of it. Voltaire listened in
amazement to the stranger as he re-
peated,
WORD F011 WORTI,
the poem which he had been at so
much pains in composing, and, giv-
ing way to a momentary outbreak of
passion, he toro the manuscript in
pieces. Ho was then informed ]foie
the Englishman had became acuuaint-
ed with his poem, and, his auger
being appeased, Om was willing to do
penance by copying down trio work
from the second repition of the
stranger, who was able to go through
it as before.
There lived in the sixteen century
at Padua, a law student who had
trained his memory to such a high
degree of perfection that he could re-
cite 36,000 words after once hearing
them read.
Jedediali Buxton, an illiterate per-
son of the eighteenth contirv, used
to put his memory to a curious use.
On one occasion he mentioned the
quantity of ale he had drunk free of
cost since ]ie was twelve years old,
and the names of the gentlemen who
lied given to to him. The whole
amounted to 5,110 pints.
As again elioteing that retentive
gifts were not found in the educated
alone, there is a notable instance of
"Blind Jamie," wlio lived some twen-
ty years ago in Sterling. Ile was a
poor, uneducated man and totally
blind, yet he could actually repeat,
alter a few minutes' consideration,
any verso required from any part of
the Bible, even to the obscurest and
least important.
An instance of a wager being won
by a feat of memory was that of a
person who repeated an entire news-
paper, advertisements as well. after
A SINGLE READING.
Another instance of n wager being
wen by a feat of recollection was
that of Mr. Futter, who not many
years ago was a well-known tithe
collector in Norfolk. He wagered
that he could recollect every word
of a sermon that was to be preached
and afterwards write it out verba-
tim. ]de was not seen to take notes,
and at the close of the service re-
tired to a room and wrote out the
sermon. On comparison with the
manuscript, which the preacher bad
been asked to bring for the purpose,
it was found to vary in one instance
but in that Mr. Futter was proved to
be correct, for the clergyman had a
distinct recollection of substituting
ono word for the other in this deliv-
ery.
When reporting was forbidden in
the Houses of parliament, and any
one seen to make notes was immedi-
ately ejected, the speeches, neverthe-
less, were published in the public
press. It was discovered that one
Woodfail used to be present in the
gallery daring She speeches, a.ucl., sit-
ting with his head between his Bunds,
actually committed the speeches to
memory, They were afterwards pub-
lished.
Lord Macaulay bacl a ntarvelloue
faculty for remembering what lie
read, Ile once declared that if by
accident nil the copies of Milton's
"Paradise Lust" were destroyed ho
would he able to write out the whele
of the long poem without a•'singlo er-
ror. Tn fact, he once perfroned the
marvellous font of repeating the
whole poem, making 0111y ono omis-

TREASURE IN BOTTLES.
Queer Riding Places For a Publi-
can's Money,
An interesting little treasure haunt
is causing some excitement in a
Staffordshire, England, village.
The treasure hunters are not rushing
round with surveyors' chains and
pickaxes, bit they search very pa-
tiently and very persistently in old
boots and stockings, pieces of news-
papers, behind wall -paper and wain-
scotting, and in black bottles.
They aro searching for the accumu-
lated wealth of one Joseph Attwood,
who with his brother kept the Vine
Inn at Dolph, and, his brother being
ufiable to transact the business, it
was transferred.
The brothers Attwood had curious
ideas as to the conduct of their busi-
ness and the employment of capital --
ideas which wooild commend them-
selves to no self-respecting econo-
mist.
When the elder brother died there
was a blunt for the money which it
was known lie had saved. In one of
the rooms, which had not been open-
ed for fifteen years, L500 in gold
was found, stowed away in corners
of the room. Hundreds cf silver
coins were found corked up in gin
bottles and bear -jars.
Half a Hundred weight of coppers
was found ]ridden in nooks and cran-
nies, old gloves, stockings, paper
bags and envelopes, and rolled up in
tea lead. Cheques which had never
been presented, a lady's watch, and
a vary old hunting watch were also
discovered.

Altogether 4.600 has been found in
various parts of the House. When
the treasure -seekers Have torn down
the walls, ripped up the floors and
searched under the soot in the chim-
neys, claims will be pegged out in the
garden.
The Attwoods had many ohne' ec-
centricities. When a thirsty traveler
modestly risked for ;'Mali a bitter,"
Joseph carefully took his measure-
ment from behind the bar, while
James peered. at him searchingly from
the other side of the house. There
was a lengthy discussion between the
brothers as to whether ire should be
served or not.
