There are some few happily dis nosed individuals, says the Lon- ion Lancet, who can dine alone. ml not eat too fast, nor too much. or too little. With the majority t is different. The average man puts his novel or his paper before him and thinks hftt he will lengthen out the me a'. viih due deliberation by reading?: tia with, and more between, tin ourses. He will just employ his uind enough to help, and too littlf to interfere with indigestion. Ir, act, he will provide that gentle mental accomplishment . which with happier people conversation liver, to a meal. This is your soli iary's excellent idea. In reality lie become engrossed in what lit1 is leading till, suddenly, finding his food cold, he demolishes it in a few mouthfuls; or else he finds that he is hungry, and paying no attention to the book, which he flings aside, he rushes through his food as fast as possible, to plunge into his arm chair and literature ifterward. In either case the lonely man must digest at a disad vantage. For due and easy nutri t ion . food should be slowly taken :nd the mind should not be in tensely excited during the process. Every one knows that violent bodily exercise is bad just after a meal, and mental exertion is equally so. Wise people do not ven ars.:ue during or just after dinner, and observation of after dinner speakers neither endure themselves nor excite in their hearers any severe intellectual ef fort. In fact, the experience of countless generations, from the red Indian of the woods to the white shirted dinerg of a modern party, has perpetuated the lesson that a man should not eat alone, nor think much at this time, but should talk and be talked to while he feeds. Most people do not think much when they talk, and talking s a natural accompaniment of eat nrj and drinking. IIow does it "are with the many solitary women of today?
