TEN FOLLIES.

First.—To think the more a man I aats the fatter and stronger he be- | comes. Second.—To think the more hours children study a.t school the, faster they learn. Third.—To conclude that if exercise is healthful, the more violent or exhaustive it is the more good it will do. Fourth.—To imagine that every hour taken from sleep is an hour gained. Fifth.—To act on the presumption, that the smallest room in the house is large enough to sleep in. Sixth.—To argue that whatever remedy causes one to feel better at once is good for the system without regard to interior effects.' Seventh.—To commit an act which is felt in itself to be prejudical, hoping that some how or other it may be done in your case with impunity. Eight.—To advise another to adopi? a method which you have tried yourself, or without special inquiry whether all the conditions are alike. Ninth.—To eat without any appetite, or to continue to eat after it has been satisfied,, merely to gratify the taste. Tenth.—To eat a hearty suppef for the pleasure experienced during thebrief time it is passing down your throat, at the expense of a whole night of disturbed sleep and a weary waking in the, morning.
