A BROKEN PROVERB. "YOU CAN'T TEACH AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS." A AVrltcr lllsprov.n tlio Dictum "Old Hop," Who Arc Constantly AiUlIng to Tlifir Stock oT KitiiirU'ilgr Hie Itilitncl the Times 1'rople. "You can't teach nn oll dog now tricks." That's what you say nt the nco of 4.1 or 50, or Ki, when you think that the bloom is about nil oir the eye of life, that it's nearly nil up with you. ami that about all the ob ject you have in living is to jirvtHiro for dying, and shuflle in your old shoes out of life ns quietly as possible possibly to the content and satisfaction of your nearest of kin, who love you well, und tho dollars you will leave them ln-tter. Hut, sir, you have no business to call your self "an old dog"' of any sex or jiersuasion. You should bo ashamed to term yourself a "dog." You nro a man, or a fragment of one, and being a man, you are, of course, but little lower than nn angel, or nt least littlo lower, wo will say, than u second hand angel; worse luck to you I You aro saying now to yourself, and you nro saying it every day, that tlio time is over for you to learn any thing new or do any thing now, mid for thai matter think or en joy anything new, tavo tlio last neighbor hood or village tuttlo and gossip, which you do enjoy ns well as any other old woman. Your boundary of your own life in your mind is to hobblo down every morning to tho town or village tattle center, and in summer win yourself on a dry good's box, and in win ter warm yourxOf by tlio grocery stove, or somebody's stove, and there rafco and scrntxj over and gnaw at all the old bones of con versation and gossip that you have gnawed over for the last live, ten or twenty years, dating from tho tinio when you thought it tho proier thing to cotiimetico I ecoming tin old man, and mako it your principal business to sniir and siiufi' and iind lault with the new fangled ways of the rising generation, who nro learning now tricks mid don't suit you nt nil, because they do not dress or danco or travel in ull respects in tho santo rut you did when you were what you called yourself u young man, although then you had com menced to fossilize, as so many men and wo men do whose bodies aro 'St years old, if, in deed, they were not partially iw-sds and rem natits of, pay tlio ilfoueno period, when they w ero bon .. OLD DOGS STILL LEARNING. Sir, you nro u dog (if you insist on calling yourself such) who can learn new tricks. Gladstone is over TO, and rules Lu land be cause ho is always learning tricks. Bismarck is over 70, mid rules Germany, and today is learning now tricks. Do hesseps, who bosses tho canalism of this planet, is over TO, and never lets up in devices for cutting through rock or sand from ocean to ocean. Ericsson is bO, if not over, and is by no means through with now ways anil means for making littlo ships overcome big ones, on tho principle that n wc:-;p may sting an ox nearly to death, and two v..s-w, or iron s.-ows, ltvighted with guuspo.. -fill enough and having their shot sent to the ii;ht place, can sink tho biggest ox of n ship in the world overloaded with men and overweighted with eleven inch iron urmor. Beeohcr, sir, never lot up until over 70, and ho might have been in Plymouth church pulpit yet had ho learned n few new tricks in tho art of keeping young, which thou anils aro in the futuro to learn. You see, fair, that somo old dogs can learn now tricks, and ko-jp on learning tlieni, so long ns they recognize tho fact that to keep tho mind young is to keep tlio body young, and as a proof of this fact you niayseo u.iy flno afternoon on Broadway men of SO or 00 who look as young and ur. as young, fresh, active and vigorous in body nnd mind, and oven more so, than you wcro nt 40, when you really commenced to grow old, because you thought you wcro at or near tho down hill side of life; and, being of what tbo world calls "middle age," it was about tinio to com menco preparations for sliding down tho valo of years and tobogganing yourcolliu into the grave. It's not the young dogs, sir, who always learn new tricks. Indeed it's the young ones who nro generally inclined to learn tho old tricks practiced by tho old dogs and learned by these old dogs lrom dugs still older be longing to a generation before you were con tracted for, planned out und manufactured. a ciianui: op cnora. Like your old farmer, who farms just ns his father farmed before lam, only blcauso his father farnmd that way and thereby left him as a legacy an over worked, farmed out, over tilled soil, which obstinately aud in u righteous bort of way woulibi't raise wheat, nnd will raise only weed1!, liecauo nature needs what you call "weed..'' or n change of crops for a time ia order to restore to the soil whnt it needs to raiso wheat.

I "Tall: nbottt the nppetltoof clrls." said ' n portly matron at n domestic aid agency, with n smile. Whatever may bo the mntter with that of our nativo born girls there Is certainly no fault to bo found with the digestion of tho foreign born help hiring but in private families. Why, it's often been a wjonder to mc what ravenous appetites a good ninny of these girls develop Now. there was a 17-year-old English girl, a small but plump creature, who went to work in a family ' of two near Lincoln park Shu was a gwd girl, quick, neat and conscientious, but after a fortnight tho lady came to tno nnd told mo she couldn't keep Nellie any longer; she'd ruin them, sho uto too much Would you believe it. sir. that small girl ate three pounds of sirloin beef stake at one breakfast A couple of pounds of rare roast beef, together with bread, potatoes and plo enough to feed a starving family for a week, was a regular tiling with her. Tho first two or three days it amused that young inarried couple to "whom sho hud hired out They used to sit and watch her operations at tho table with bulging eyes They thought sho had been starving and had to fill out again. But no It was tho sumo every day They had to give it up That girl was actually bankrupting them The grocer's and' butcher's bills nt tho end of tho week were as high as they would have been for a boarding house. "Then there wns nnother girl, a Ger man. She was an old maid of 85 or thereabouts. Sho was ns thin ns a rail nnd so palo sho looked ns if sho had con sumption But tho way sho punished tho eatables! My sakes! And with that sho never gained any flesh. Sho was a good servant, etlicient. taitliful and exceed ingly methodical. But sho camo to mo every week for n new place. Nobody could nfford to keep her that's tho fact. And. generally speaking, my experience of many years with theso foreign born hired giris is that they glory in an enor mous appetite and enjoy their meals im mensely Somo people think they just do it on purpose to bust' tho family But no: it's natural with them." Chicago Herald. Why the sloii Tnk SoiiIji. When asked why tho Sioux scalp thoro slain in battle Rod' Shirt gave the follow ing reasons: In former times tho Sioux cut off tho heads of their victims, but when they began to light tho white men they took to sculping, tho samo as they saw tho white men do Tho scalp is taken as indisputable evidence that a man has been killed, and whenever an Indian war rior recounts his bloody deeds ho must produce tho scalp to prove that what ho says is true. If lie fails tonlo this bo ia not believed. The sculps aro usually kept for a time and then thrown away. Somo of tho old men wear scalps on their shirts or leggings nnd have them buried with their bodies when they die. In conclud ing his remarks on scalps I'.'ul Shirt said, with a touch of sadness in his oxpr ssion: "1 don't like to keep sculps or look nt them, for they always mako me think of fights in which somo of my friends have been killed." In reply to "tho question, "Aro you sorry that you will have no op portunity to increase tho number of your .sculps?" ho said: "No; I am glad that war is nt nn end. There aro too many white men. Tlio In dian must do ns they say I do not want to see nny moro of "my people killed. It is useless to shed their blood, for in tho cud they must lose." "Why do you huvo scalp dances?" was asked. "When wo come back from a big fight with many scalps wo make a big feast. Each man tells what he' has done in the wnr and wo rejoice. If wo take no scalps und have some of our people killed we como back sad and havo no dance." "In tho 'Omaha' or war dauce what does each man say in his song?" "He says: '1 have killed a man. I am very glad. I have taken another scalp. I havo scalps now (mentioning tho number), and I am going to get somo more. ' " "Does an Indian feel bad jvhen ho kills a woman' or "chTl'dV "No, not when ho docs it in war. Our enemies kill our wives nnd children and wo do tlio same. If an Indian kills one of his own people ho feels very bad. bo cnuso it is wrong. It is not wrong to kill an enemy." New York Worid. The Transportation of lVtroletltn. To what extent is tho competition of Russia to affect tlio sale of American petroleum in IZuropoY It has already nearly driven it from tho Austrian em pire, though the effect is not yet very ap parent in western Europe. Tlio transpor tation of petroleum on tlio Mediterranean in summer presents dangers thut render it almost impossible. When tho tempera turo of the nir about tho vessel has reached a certain point tho volatilo ele ments of tho oil eseapa nnd form a sort of element about it so combustible that it is impossible o,ven t Jiirht a match without Ifs taking lira.

"It is a mistake," bald u well known advertising agent tp mo recently, "hut u common one to supjioso that Americans spend moro in advertising than do the business moil of other nations. I think Ainericnus spend mora wisely and got moro display for their money, but the actual sums expended by EugllsU adver tisers exceed thoao expended by Ameri cans. Ono English firm alone spent last year at least $500,000 in advertising one commodity. Tu hundred and seventy five thousand dollar of this money was disbursed in England and $150,000 of it in this country, tho 1 Milan 00 elsewhere.

A COSTON rWSICIAN GIVES VICE TO THE PUBLIC. A Mixed iycl I rirot for tho OmiiIvrou Anlmnl, Man Water During; tho llcntrtl Term Concrrnlti; "Appetizers" Iter rlen Soup Cold MntN. While undeniably a mixed diet is tho best for man. thero is a mistaken notion, ' which prevails to a great extent, that meat should largely enter into tho same. As n consequence, much moro is eaten than is needed or can properly bo dis- posed of in tho system. Never eat meat oftencr than onco a day, and very spar ingly in summer. Men of sedentary , habits might with safety for several days ; at t tlmo during thnt season livo on veg- I etablcs, fruits, milk, breadstttfls and foods of liko ccaracter, which aro easy of digestion. For those who havo good reason to believe that their "kidneys nro weak," a diet largely mado up of meat is ill advised. Those organs aro intimately concerned in its disposal in tho system, nnd henco nro overtasked if it is taken in too great a quantity. Somo drink too freely of water, espe cially during tho h.cnted term. Thero is, however, a' class largely mado up of women who do not nt any thno drink stif ficiently of that eminent essential to health. As a rule they suffer from con- , stipatlon. Every 0116 ought to drink about two quarts of water daily to meet , tho needs of tho system. "Water is fat tening" is an expression of somo truth, i Very Ucshy people nro proorblally thirsty, I and" when they atteippt a reduction in , weight, to lessen ns much ns possiblo tho I quantity of fluids habitually taken is ono of tho recognized rules of treat- 1 mcnt. But a rigid adherenco to it is dangerous for many, if not all. Un- I less advised -by a physician to do dif ferently, fhey should drink all they ' crave, "within reason, excepting during tho hour beforo and tlio hour after meals. With tho food only tho smallest quautity of fluids possiblo is allowable. ICIJ "WATKU IN MODCKATIOK. i I Much has been written for nnd against 1 Ico water. It is not only ngreeabio and refreshing, but harmless when used in moderation. In certain forms of dyspep sia characterized by flatulence bloating, as it is popularly called very cold water acts as an ngreeabio tonic, and quickens gastric and intestinal activity in ninny enses if taken when tho stomach is com paratively empty. If tuken on a full stomach it, as" a rule, intensifies tho trouble. Over Indulgence is always harm ful, nnd it is especially so nt meal times. For a robust person' in hot weather to redttco ono-half tho quantity of food ho is habituated to eating would bo a most salutary custom, for ho would then not only suffer infinitely less from tho heat, but bo stronger and moro aetivo, both' mentally and physically. Thoso espe cially who aro wedded to their "appe tizers" would do well to forego them at least until cooler weather comes, nnd leave nature, uninfluenced by tho seduct ive cocktail, to direct tho quantity of food necessary for tlio body's support. 1 That "berries aro healthy food can in truth bo said, nnd yet some kinds should bo 3onicd peoplo who havo certain forms of digestive disturbance. Blackberries, for instanco, which contain small seeds, to somo extent irritato tho intestinal canal. It is in that way that they uro useful in constipation; they stimulato and quicken activitv of tho bowels. But if tho stomach and bowels aro what is gen erally termed weak, then in such a caso they nro likely to do harm. Very young children should, of course, bo denied them. I Tho avcrago farmer knows ns littlo of dietetics us an infant Ho dilates on his I wholesome food, which largely consists of substances which requiro for digestion tho stomach of an ostrich. Plain living is all right, but that docs not mean that a man should mako a meal essentially on ' ono courso, varied only by a pieco of pio or something of the sort. "Tlio greatcrthe I variety tho better, as long as a proper selection of tho food is made. t Soup is, by peoplo generally, considered indispensablo tit dinner. It stimulates tho stomach aud makes that organ ready for tho work beforo it. For that purposo I clear soup may properly bo indulged in by nearly all; thero are, however, com- 1 parative'ly few who do not find soup ' thickened by stock meat, vegetables, etc., a tax upon digestion if "hearty" foods aro eaten after it. It "sours on tho stomach," aud henco should bo forbidden dvspeptics, for whom only clear soup is allowable. TUOUBLE WITH TATTY FOODS. Tho digestivo organs find an ndmixturo of several fattv foods diilicult to disposo I of. Tho man who has fried fish, bacon, steak, cgg3 nnd dry toast for breakfast Is 1 made uncomfortable, nnd feels dull and heavy for several hours nfterwurd unless he eats very (sparingly. With the butter, , which js, of course, an essential, thero nro . in such a meal ns generally prepared fivo different kinds vf fat. And they nro still ' moro indigestible when taken hot. t In this country thero is a most decided projudico against cold meals. Of courso somo foods should bo served warm, but ! nono hpt. Americans nro scarcely satisfied 1 with tea or coffeo unless it is near tho : boiling point; potatoes, ulso, must bo steaming hot. Dyspepsia is tho natural , consequence. Tlio Lnglish inthiarcspoct ore a delightful contrast. I'coplo who nro I forced to bo early in tho morning nt their , labors would bo much better did thoy eat cold meats for breakfast, and how much such a custom would lesson tho burden of their poor, overworked wives, i Tho question what shall wo rat may bo : best answered by simply quoting tho fact I that man Is an omnivorous unimal. Why nnd how much wo shall eat can bo set forth tolorably well by saying that it is 1 impossible for" an cngino to mako steam without coal or water and tliM no com petent engineer would mako ljls macbino carrv 100 pounds of steam when fifty pounds would do t ho work in hand. An Important duty of those who work with engines is to seo that tho firo is freed from clinker and ash. So wasto must bo regularly eliminated from tho human sys tem. Tho skin, tho kiduoys and tho bowels nro tho main chauuels for tho cs capo of this, and when theso (doves fall to act, tho stato of affairs in tho body is very parallel to what would occur 6hould a fire man fall to clean tho grato, and presently tho firo will ccaso to burn.
