It has been frequently stated that fish diet, by virtue of the phosphorus which it contains, is pre-eminently adapted to nour ish the brain, and that those who subsist on it largely are distinguished fgr their Drigntness ana intellectuality, it is per fectly true that a small percentage of phos phorus enters into the composition of the healthy brain, and while it is also true that fish contains more or less phosphorus that may and probably does pass into the circulation it is yet to be proved either by theory or by experience that a diet of fish is on the whole better adapted to supply the waste of the brain than a liberal vari ety of other alimentary substances and especially of meats. Fish is easy of diges tion and creates little vascular excitement and consequently forms a light and whole some article of diet. Salt water fish are the best of any, as their flesh is niorei solid, more agreeable and healthy, less exposed to putrescence and L3ss viscid. They pos sess these excellent qualities when fresh. When salted, they.bave all the properties of salt fish and consequently its disadvan tages. Those fish Which have scales are in gen- feral the most easily digested and tho best, and of all these fish the fresh herring ap pears to deserve the preference. The her ring, codfish, turbot and flounder are per- 1 j 1 m j J i 1 1 n r naps me, most aigesiitue ana uesc 01 usn. Salmon and mackerel, lobster and most other kinds of shellfish are more difficult of digestion. The mode of cooking fish is of considerable importance. Frying them in oil or lard isan objectionable process. In general the process of boiling is best adapted to render them wholesome. Stewed fish should be avoided by the dyspeptic Acid sauces and pickles render fish more wholesome for the stomach, while buttei has a tendency to prevent digestion, whila spice and "salt used in moderate quantities facilitate the digest! ve'process. One of the best eauoes that can be used with fish is lemon juice. New York Ledger. , Th Perils of Fosters. An eminent scientist has. been, telling the sanitary congress that sensational the atrical posters are highly detrimental to the moral health of the community. It seems that they induce imitative actions. The argument appears to be that a man sees on the wall a pictorial representation of a murder scene in a thrilling melodrama and rushes home to cut his wife's throat or throw her out of the window. On the same principle, I suppose, when he sees a picture of an ox in a, teacup, he will hasten to the nearest. public house and .endeavor to discover a man in a quart pot.' We shall be told next that the pictures of fat babies Which advertise various infants' foods 'are responsible for the., alarming increase of the. population, and I know not what be sides. It may be so, but I would suggest a little" healthy skepticism until some definite evidence is forthcoming bf this new danger. It is not so very long since some enthusiasts on the county council got up a crusader against street posters on moral grounds, and the result was hardly encouraging. In spite of moralists and 'aesthetes there is probably more good than evil on the street boardings. London Truth- Editors and Gentlemen. . A Georgia paper somewhat infelicitously remarked of the late General Avery of At lanta that, although he was a great jour-, nalist, he was an ideal gentleman. This suggests to the Montgomery Advertiser :tbe old story of the editor and the barber on ! a steamboat. ' When the editor off ered to pay for his shave, the barber drew him self up and. remarked, "W don't never charge editors nothin. sah. " r "But you can't carry -on your business unless you charge for it, ' ' persisted the editor. Dat'a all right sah," replied the darky. "We makes it up off 'n gentlemen. "-New York Tribune. .

Watkinson at Plymouth. Some time ago he. was staying with a good lady who was yearning for the good old times and mourning the degeneracy of modern "YVes leyan ministers. On being 4ske? for the grounds of her jeremiads she said that Wesley an ministers of the earlier part of this century rose early in the morning, and that dear Mr. Wesley was in his study at 4 o'clock in the morning.
