How Much n Man Eats. It has been celeulnted that, on the eve- rage, each man who attains the age of three score and ten consumes during the course of his life twenty wagon-loud: of food, solid end liquid. At four tone to the wagon this would correspond to an ever-age of about a hundred ounces of food per day, or say some one hundred and twenty ounces per day during adult life, and ebout ei hty ounces during infancy and youth. Last modern doctors agree in regarding one hundred and twenty ounces ,of food per day, correspond- ing to five or six-helf-pinte of liquid food, and seven or eight pounds of aol' food, as in excess of the real daily requ' rents of a healthy menor women.

And if there is one thing that should be more im- perative than another, it is that your child- ren shall be at home at night : or that, if they are abroad, you shall be abroad with them. There may be things that it is best that you should do for your children, though you would not do them for yourselves ; but they ought not~ to go anywhere at night ; to see the sights, or to take fleesure, unless you can go with them, unti they grow to men’s estate and their habits are formed.
