L. Parnsworth, who, it is has distinguished himself by at least nine matrimonial ventures under vari­ ous names, was arrested in Chicago Monday on a warrant sworn out by Mrs. Callie P. Bradshaw of 291 Wabash avenue, one of his wives. She and Mrs. Sarah M. Parnsworth of 317 West Mad­ ison street, another victim, identified the prisoner as the man who had wooed them to obtain a few hundred dollars and after marriage hastened to leave them. Other alleged victims are Mrs. Louisa Bradshaw, of 312 Harrison street, Peoria, 111., and Mrs. Bradford of Little Bock, Ark. At two other weddings, it is alleged, Farnsworth assumed the names of Sterling and Thomas. We Feared m Much. The Marengo Republican, speaking of a visit of Jas. Walsh, the Harvard Her­ ald, to that city says. "He's a very pleasant young man, but--he's spoken for." We feared as much: James has been acting rather strangely of late. We congratulate the fortunate young lady however.--Woodstock Sentinel. Foot Ball Game.

Oatmeal. >' ^ This airlefe lias attained i aition as a food ia competion with wheat, barley, and corn or maize. It has its rep­ utation j from its use by the Scotch. All the vigor and energy of their na­ ture being attributed to the use of the oatmeal. It is sold at a high price, as it has to be prepared by baking in kilns and mounted with care. It is given to babes and children, and highly liked. The truth is, as compared with wheat, oat is a very, poor food. And if the Scotch thrive on it, it is the spite of it, not on account of it. Oats cannot be made into light, spon­ gy bread, as it has not gluten enough. It contains more silica than wheat It is harder to digest I have had lately a case where a nervous boy of 10 was paralyzed in the lower limbs, so that he could not walk. Cured by stopping oatmeal and dieting on beef. Oats are good for horses and bovines. Man had better leave oats to the horses. It is good economy for the purse, for the constitution, for the alimentary canal to prefer wheat to oats. Wheat is a royal grain, and has stood the test as a supreme, royal food for man for ages.
