' LEARN WHAT TO EAT.
•tudy Your Needs and Be!ect Your
Food With Discretion.
In our ignorance of what the va
rious tissues of tho body require for
tfoing their work we crowd the sys
tem with a great mass of unneces
sary food, only an infinitesimal part
of which can possibly be of use in
strengthening us for our occupa
tion.
There are about a doaen different
kinds of tissue cells in the body,
each one requiring a special oil,
and those winch arc especially ac
tive in our line of work require a
much larger amount of food partic
ularly adapted to their use than the
other tissues, which are almost
wholly inactive in our vocation.
Thousands of men are forcing
fheir brains to do work by stimu
lants which only exhaust and do
not nourish, and then they wonder
that they have nervous breakdown
or paresis. Other thousands, in
their ignorance of scientific feeding,
force their brains to do work every
►bit of which is abnormal, because
they do not have sufficient nourish
ment.
An active brain worker requires a
great deal of albuminous foods,
foods which contain phosphorus—
like fish, oysters and other kinds of
shellfish and eggs. Meat is distinct
ly muscle focal. It is suitable only
lor those who do physical work.
The locomotive engineer studies
fuels. He does not throw all sorts
of combustible things into his fire
box just because they are combusti
ble. He finds out the best kind of
fuel for his engine, that which will
give him the greatest possible
amount of combustion with the
least waste. He makes a profession
of his business and studies the re
quirements of his engine. But most
people seem to think that they can
run the most complicated machinery
in the world—the* great human en
gine—without any special study.
The result is that we use all sorts
of fuel without reference to the
particular work we are doing.

An Eye to the Main Chance.
Lucinda had a large box of choco
lates. Every few minutes she would
pass the box around to her motheT
and her mother’s visitors. “Wha4
a dear little thing!” exclaimed one
of them. “She is the very soul of
generosity. Most children would
satisfy the dictates of conscience by
passing the box around once, but
she seems to wish to share the
whole box with us.”
Lucinda’s
ingbY.^.r^mTtheht tic girl went
out of the room she said: “Don’t
count too much on Lucinda’s gener
osity. I know it looks that way,
but as a matter of fact she is mere
ly working for herself. I don’t per-j
mit her to eat much candy, but shfl
knows that every time she passes
the box around she’ll get one her
self. She knows 1 won’t scold much
so long as she is passing her sweet
meats around to others.” Ex

H#r Sacrifice.
A teacher in a certain Sunday
school had been impressing on her
girls the need of making some per
soual sacrifice during Lent. Ac
cordingly on the first Sunday of
that penitential season, which hap
pened to be a warm ‘day, she took
oecusion to ask each of the class in
turn whut she had given up for the
sake of her religion. Everything
went well, and the answers were
proving highly satisfactory, until
she came to the youngest member.
“Well, Mary,” inquired the teacher,
“what have you left off foj Lent ?”
“Please, ma’am,” stammered the
child, somewhat confused, “I—l’ve
left off my leggings.”

A coal miner in the east of Scot
land was visited by a friend, and
among the places of interest shown
was, of course, the pit mouth. See
ing the cage lowered into the pit
with the stout steel rope, the min

“My word! I shouldn’t like to go
down there on that rope.”
“Why,” exclaimed the miner,
“Aw wadna like to gaLg doon thers
