DO YOU WISH A GOOD HINT? “We must eat to liv ‘The health of the budy nnd life Itself depend entirely on @ suitable diet. When people do not Bet enough food or live on un improper diet, sick- Ress is the inevitable result. Proper nourishment 4s the sceret of health and strength. The great question of health is, therefore, what is a proper diet? ‘This question might be answered in three differ- ent ways and yet each auswer would be correct. In the tropies, it would be right to say that the Proper diet for mankind is almost entirely vege- tarian—that is, fruits, vegetables and grains. But fm America, which Mes in the great temperate zone, a mixed diet Is found to be the best. The healthiest people, in this country, lve on meat foods, vegetables and grains im suitable propor- tions. Such a diet is founded on reason and it ought to be healthy. ‘Theory and practice, however, do not always ‘agree. There are thousands of people who eat Plenty of good food and yet remain weak, an- natorally feelings. Their great “trouble is that while they eat suitable food they do not get sufficient nour- ishment. They do not digest their food properly. So they keep thin and keep getting thiuner. Lack Of nourishment soon wears tiem out. - It was formerly the custom to advise such peo- Ble to take oils and fats, but persons with weak stomachs can no more dizest cod liver oil than they can dizest fat pork. The effect of either is to make them dyspeptic and bilious. And that is why advanced physicians now refuse to preseribe cod liver oil. Medicated wines and so-called stomach “bitters” are equally useless. They cely inflame the Mining of the stomach and give no nourish- ment. ‘The recognition of these great principles of diet and nourishment has led to one of the most bril- Mant discoveries of the present age. It has com- pletely revelutionized the treatment of dyspepsia and emaciation. Instead of trying to cure indiges- tion with medicines and olly mixtures, people are now finding out that the only way to get rellef is by obtaluing sufficient nourishment, and that this nourishment is sp-edily gained by taking Paskola, the artificially digested food.

A. R. Consideration for Veterans in Gov- ernment Service Asked—Close of the Encampment. The following resolution was adopted by the G. A. R. encampment at Pittsburg yesterday, and a cop;r ordered to be sent to the President of the United States, the commander-in-chief being directed to se- cure the reinstatemeat of as many old soldiers as possible: “Resolved, That the Grand Army of the Republic in twenty-eighth national encamp- ment assembled, respectfully requests the President of the United States tu issue executive orders to the heads of the several aepariments of the government, and through them to subordinates having power to give employment to persons in the pub- lie service, that due consideration be given to the claims of veterans of the war, and that in letter and spirit any laws in refer- ence thereto nich give them a preference may be faithfully carried out.” This resolution” emanated from the De- Partment of the Potomac. Colonel Dewees of Washington intro- duced a resolvtion of similar trend support- ing Judge Long in his recent controversy with the pension department, censuring Col. Ainsworth for his conduct and de- nouncing the arbitrary dismissal of old soldiers. The resolution was tabled and the first adopted. A number of resolutions on the same subject, among them one from the De- partment of the Potomac, demanding an — of Col. Ainsworth, were also tal IN HOTEL CORRIDORS “I don’t know what to make of the re- ports I frequently read in the papers about derelicts being boarded at sea and then re- Ported as being in longitude this and lati- tude that when the skipper who does the boarding gets to pert.” Capt. Ernest Clave is seventy-nir e years old, or will be October 2, and up to twelve years ago had followed the sea for a livelihood ever since he could remember. Hs is on his way to spend his autumn vacation, as he calls it, with his daughter, near Staunton, Va., and was at the St. James. “That kind of proceeding sounds mighty singular to me. I have sailed on every sea in the world, in all kinds of vessels, and for thirty years of that time I Was a skipper. Once, whea I was very young, and shipping with my uncle on the Martha Adams, which ran in the sugar trade from Boston to Demerara, we ran in- to a water-logged wreck and pretty nigh went to the bottom. My uncle knew a doz- en vessels had passed that wreck before we reached it, and he cursed their skippers for all he was worth for not having set it afire or sunk it. In all my time I never came up with an abandoned wreck, or what they call derelicts nowadays, without either giv- ing it a good dose of oil or running an auger through the bottom. It used to be just as much a skipper’s duty to remove a wreck from the track of navigation as it was for a farmer to move the rocks and stumps out of his house road. Nowadays the derelicts seem to be a matter of curi- osity, and seagoing people et ‘em alone and report their whereabouts, so some people can tell great stories of how far the thing has floated since it was last seen.” “Wouldn’t a boat lose ume by stopping to sink or burn a derelict?” “No, net enough to count. It wouldn’t take two hours to heave to, attend to a derelict for all time to come and get under full headway again, and the benefits to navigation would more than make up for such little delay a million times over. I saw the other day where one of those wrecks had traveled around over the At- lantic something like 10,000 miles and had been reported hundreds of times, and board- ed and examined at least twenty. Any skipper who goes on a derelict and exam- ires and then leaves it to threaten every vessel that comes along that way is guilty, in my opinion, of criminal negligence. We old-timers never failed to sink or burn ‘em, and that’s what ought to be done nowa- days.” bled.

The resolution came from Lafayette Post, New York, and read: ‘Whereas, American liberty rests upon individual rights and obedience to law, and as these fundamental prirciples are’ destroyed by so-called strikes, the rights of individuals overruled by violence and private property destroyed, and executive and judicial authority set at defiance, and whereas they have become so frequent as to indicate an approxima- tion to a condition or anarchy if not promptly and vigorously checked. “Resolved, That we vigorously against weak toleration of such outrage and insist upon the protection of individual rights as essential to the maintenance of American liberty, that all mob violence frcm whatever cause must be promptly sup- pressed and those guilty of overt acts or intimidatirg threats be punished.

A communication was received at the Brazilian consulate, New York city, recently stating that Dr. Domingo Freire, the well-known bacteriologist, had discovered the microbes of yellow fever and malaria, and had begun the practice of vaccination for these diseases with wonderful succ?ss. Dr. Freire’s investigations were carried. on in the hospital of St. Sebastian at Rio Ja- neiro, The communication did not give details. “If Dr. Freire has made a successful use of inoculation in the treatment of yellow fever he has established an epoch in med- ical history,” said Dr. Alvah H. Doty of the health department yesterday to a New York Sun reporter. “Medical science knows of no specific for yellow. fever.Gen.Sternberg of our regular army made investigations of yellow fever for the United States gov- ernment and bis discoveries led him to be- lieve that there is a microbe ef yellow fever. “Since Koch made his discoveries in the treatment of tuberculosis we have frequent- ly heard of investigators finding a similar treatment and clre for other incurable dis- eases, but almost invariably the discoveries have amounted to nothing and have fizzled cut. Wonderful results have recently come from the vaccinating process in the treat- ment of diphtheria. It has been settled beyond a doubt that the use of the Loefler bacillus in the treatment of diphtheria will effect a cure. ‘Thinkers say if cure by in- oculation of bacteria will follow in one case, why not in others? But as yet we know of no such cure for yellow: fever, malaria, typhcid fever, cancer or other diseases where there is supposed to be a microbe. Cancer patients have been inocu- lated with the germs of erysipelas, in the hope that the two germs of disease would destroy each other. But cure did not fol- low.

Pitcher Mercer and Captain Joyce, as- sisted by seven other members of the Washington Base Ball Club, gave a cred- itable exhibition of base ball playing yes- terday afternoon and easily defeated the Pittsburg Pirates on their own grounds. Just to show that there was no ill-feeling Schmelz’s men started off with five runs. With Schetbeck on first Joyce made a home run. Before the inning erded three men had been given bases on balls and Cart- wright and Mercer had made hits, with the above result. That was all Washing- ton needed for a while, but in the eighth six hits and two bases on balls brought the total up to eleven runs. It rained in the sixth and Mercer had a little difficulty in controlling the wet ball. Principally on that account Pittsburg scored the first three runs of their six. Washington played with a vim, not an error being made. The score: The Electric Roni to’ Ask for the Use of Columbuy Street—Other Matters $f Ihterest.

The population of the islands is a liitle over 41,000,000, the gain since 1882 being 4,400,000. "There are 11 towns, having YESTERDAY'S RACING. from 10,000 to 30,000 Inhabitants; thirty-six which have over 30,000; six which have Alexander Island. over 100,000, and three, Tokio, Osaka and Kioto, which have over 300,000. The sta- tistics of emigration show that the largest number of the expatriated go to the Sand- wich Islands, and the next largest to the United States. But the outflowing volume of the population fs not large, ovly about 10,000 for the year mentioned, showing a moderate increase over preceding years. The whole number of Japanese resident abroad is a little less than 40,000; exports increased three-fold in the ten years pre- ceding 1892, in which year they were a trifle less than $100,000,000, and imports about $75,000,000, We buy more of Japan than any other ration buys, our bills in good years amounting to something like $40,000,000; but England commands the bulk of her trade, a condition ich may be changed as time goes on. Under its new treaty with England the country is em- powered to levy duties on imports accord- ing to the need of revenue, a right denied under old conventions entered into when Japan was new to western ways, and did not well know what she was doing. They restricted her Import duty to 5 per cent ad valorem on British goods, and practi- cally on all her imports. This was a most burdensome and injurious provision, and with its removal and the settlement of the present difficulty with China the coun- try should enter upon a career of enlarged prosperity, the example of which may im- pel her inert and drowsy neighbor with whom she is now battling to a like course of liberality in fostering a spirit of com- munity and reciprocity with other nations. = #0 JUST LIKE A COMEDY.

The Deceive gelding made the circuit in 2.08, which is 1 1-4 seconds lower than the previous best record, which was accomplished by Flying Jib two years ago.

Thirty-five hundred sports from Omaha, Kansas City, Chicago, Des Moines, Topeka and other cities saw the sun of Billy Lay- ton’s ambition go down before the hand of Tommy Ryan last night at St. Joseph, Mo. The fight took place in a most un- vsual spot on a sand bar in the middle of the Missouri river, and under a tent in which the great Georgia evangelist, Sam Jones, made his first public appearance in this section ten years ago. —_-_— TELEPHONING UNDER THE SEA.
