There is an illuminating chapter on "Lila- shorteners," which, the intelligent reader is implored to avoid-mentel distress, anxiety, excessive greed, discontent, melancholy, sud den shocks, anger, baired, malice, envy, freitability, and such-like things. Drain workers should est light food. They should keep their heads cool and their fost warm.

The whole secret of long life lies in the digestive organs, and it is pleasing to learn that fresh herrings supply the greatest amount of nutriment at the smallest cost of any load obtainable. Only, keep off the ron; it will give you gout 1.

PON'T SHY AT ONIONS,

* It is well worth quoting some of the "tips" given in this excellent little book:

emons and times purify the blood. Onions are bracing to the nerves and stomach, promote perspiration, assist digestion, and increase bodily warmib. Spanish onions with batter are valuable in

cases of eczema: 1

Mushrooms should never be eaten when

strong alcoholic drink is being taken.. Strawberries are good forringworm and gout,

and cranberries.for'erysipelas. < Gogerbread is wholesome, Chickweed is good for eczema, Dande ion tez is beneficial. Cocoa beans, when chewed, will allay thint. Toast-walar reduces favariabness. Nuts should be eaten cautiously.

PERIODICAL ABstinence is goOD. Once a week, fortnight, or month, nearly every constitution is benefited by keeping tha dietary for one day very light, as thin abstinence restores the power of the digestive organe by (919 lessening their exertion for the time being.
