Health Hints.
Warm bread “packs” the stomach.
—Don't oat it.
The best and safest tooth wash- is
tepid water.
Never sit or sleep with cold feet.
A mixed iHet of animal an l vege
table food is the best; the vegetable
portion should predominate.
Regularity of the time in eating
baa much to do with the preserva
tion of health. Do not eat late sup
pers.
Water standing foi some time in a
room becomes impure by absorbing
noxious vapors from the air.
^ All sleeping rooms should be
thoroughly ventilated. The bedding
should be often changed and kept
well aired.
‘Hay Fever’ may be instantly re
lieved by bathing the nostrils and
closed eyelids with spirits of camphor
and warm water.
Whoever eats “heavy” piecrust
or “soggy" bread, commits a crime
against his physical well-being and
most paj the pe- alty. *
Thoroughly cleanse the cellar.
Ventilate it from without, summer
and winter. Suffer no decayed vege
tables to remain in it.
Colds sre often caught by standing
in an open hall or doorway during
c<»ld weather. The transition ot the
cold and warm currents causes the
trouble.
An eminent pysician thinks that
more thau thirty thousand deaths
are caused annually by tight lacing.
Wet or damp clothes should be iu-

evaporation.

Texts for Hasty Readers-
The birthplace of a mao does him
no honor; but a mau may uo honor
to his birthplace.
The friendship of the world are of
ten confederation in vice cr league
of pleasure.
Lite is the hyphen between matter
and snirit.
The fetters of rhyme are no more
tha® a bracelet to the true poet.
As well pass a kaleidoscope .trom
hand to hand, and expect no tremb
ling t<>uch will alter its aspect, as to
think to hear a story from mouth to
mouth literally and accurately re
peated.
When hearts are filled with holy
afiection*, and home is happy, then
do the young dwell in a charmed eir-
<de, which only the naturally deprav
ed would seek to quit, and across
which boundary temptations to error
shine out feebly.
The young should be spared from
sorrow as much as possible. Never
dim t he sunshine of hope ami joy so
as to leave them without even the
memory of its glory.
Rob charity of its name by the
delicacy ot your bequests, and you
give it a frail chance of proving the
divinity of its origin.
Teach self-denial, and make its
practice pleasureable, and you create
tor the world a destiny more sublime
than ever issaed from the brain of
the wildest dreamer.
An Impertinent H erald Intarviewer
Hakes a Water-haul-
On Thursday last, ex-Presidenf
Jefferson Davis, beiug in New York
on business, registered his name at
the New York hotel. The news ot
the arrival of the distinguished
southern statesmen soon spread
through the city, and before the ink
on the office register had fairly dried,
a Herald reporter nosed him out,
and sent his ca d requesting an in
terview. Mr. Davis was not in the
room. Learning that lie was at
dinner, the importunate sensation
hunter took his stand at tbe door,
and when Mr. Davis came from the
dining room with the proprietor of
the hotel, with note book and pencil
in hand, dogged the gentleman to
the office, where within convenient
earshot he listened t * their conver
sation,—mean time taking notes for
a description of Mr. Davis’ person
which he gives to the readeis of the
Herald with great particularity.
The conversation between Mr Davis
and his host was on the subject of
the cholera, now prevailing in the
West. Alt r reporting what Mr.
Davis said on that subject, the en
terprising “snapper up of u neons id-,
ered trifles, ” proceeded as follows:
Mr. Davis having ended these re
marks the reporter introduced him
self to h s notice. He was received
kindly and addressed in a calm, soft
voice, ami with a slow speech. The
reporter announced his desire to
hear an expression of the views ot
Mr. Davis ou the affairs of the coun
try.
The ex-President replied quickly.
“It can’l be, I am eutirely apart
from politics now.”
“But, the State of the South, its
commercial, agricultural needs?”
Mr. Davis interrupted the eport-
er courteously, saying: “No sir, 1
can say nothing. You most under
stand my position, aud, therefore,
comprehend niy determination to
have nothing to say upon any sub
ject, as every one must lead to poli
tics, from whose discussion I am sep
arated.”
Seeing that perseverance in the
queries would only be discourteous
and not useful, t he Herald represent
ative said : “Well, Mr. Davis, 1
understand you are about to leave
the country?”
‘■Wliat country ?” wag the inter
rogative reply.. “Leave what coun
try ? No sir, it is a mistake. I do
not lutend to go to Europe.”
As further conversation could not
serve i’is wishes, the Herald repre
sentative took leave of Mr. Davis,
who bade him farewell in the same
courteous tone he iiad received him.
