The Sin of Gluttony.
Eminent physicians continue to
send out warning against the Sin of
gluttony, but with little effect on
the community. The growth of dis*-
eases directly attributable to over
eating increases, and the death rate
gives- solemn warnings that seem to
be unheeded. The case is all the
worse because most men who are
heavy eaters take no exercise and
thus double the danger. An emi
nent physician has just given an ar
gument against business men eat
ing three’hearty meals a day with
out taking any exercise. He says
that a man who works in the open
air can eat as much as he feels like,
but that the man of sedentary hab
its who partakes of nieat three
times a. day is simply laying up
trouble for himself and making it
necessary for insurance companies
to change the rates.

Another Indiana Orator.
J. Frank Hanly of Lafayette, who
was a candidate for United States
senator against Mr. Beveridge, is a
recognized orator. It is said of Mr.
Hanly that several years ago he
was attorney in a suit against Park
Hunter of Warren county, who
owns several thousand acres of good
land. It was a minor case before a
squire, but the conditions were ad
mirable for a forensic display, and
Hanly’s effort was worthy of a
greater audience and a greater oc
casion. J udgment went against
Hunter. Afterward, upon being
asked what attorney appeared
against him, Hunter replied, with
emphasis, “Demosthenes!”—Indian

Simple Cure for Obesity.
A French method ot curing
obesity has recently been in vogue.
It is mqch simpler and more
effectual than the plan of the
late Prince Bismarck’s physician.
It seems that
officer
an army
thought of resigning from the ser
vice, because he had grown so fat
that it required two men to lift
him into the saddle. The formula
is this: “Never eat more than
one dish at each meal, no matter
what that dish may be, and a per
son may consume as much as the
stomach can bear, and satisfy the
appetite without the least reserve.
Nevertheless, nothing but the one
dish should be taken; no condi-
✓
ment, or soups, or supplementary
deserts should be allowd. ”
This was also tried by a lady
who was growing too stout' and
with the most satisfactory result.

Minister Wu Ting Fang and Dr.

reception in Washington last win

rather the best of it.
It was the initial meeting of the
two, and their spinal inflexions
were barely completed-when the lit

drawing her rather slight anatomy
np to the uttermost semblance of
dignity that she could command,
with an expression, too, of utter
disapprobation upon her counte
nance, eyed the big Chinaman most
severely for a moment.
With a look of astonishment at
this attitude, to which the popular
diplomat is so little accustomed, he
waited in curiosity for what was
coming, for Dr. Mary’s expression
was portentous. At last she let him
