Facrs.—It is now well ascertained thnt
most of as eattwice us mach as we need, aud
that ninety ont of n handred diseases are onr
own making. ‘Ihe gentleniea who whirl about
all day in their carringes as if they were rushing to put oot a fire, passing from hoose to
house to miuisler to people afflicted with colds,
billious attacks, henduchics, nervous coimpluiuts,
t, rheumatism, nnd the majority of physienl
ila that afflict humanity, owe their oceapation
and its profits to the wrongs of the stomnel.
People treat that vital member, which prepares
nits wonderful labratory the streams of life
that nourish the whole system, as if it was
merely a couvenient arraugement for the gratificatiou of the palate and the appetite. Asa
rule, they don't even take the pnins to lighten
its labor by umking their teeth do the rough
part of the work, bat bolt their feed, gobbling
away as long asa cubic barley-corn of the
atoulach is left uncrammed. They convert it
juto an orgaa of sensual esjoyinent, forgetting
that its office is to prepare supplics to repair
the hourly wnste of the body, nnd thnt, as these
supplies are healthy or unhealthly, so will the
body be.

COMBINED
FAUCET AND MEASURE.
This ls one of the most useful inventions of the day, and
is destined to go Into unlversal use on this coast, as it bas
Inthe Eastern States.
The livention consists of a combined Faucet and MeasUre, so arrangeil that tho Ilquid contents of any eask or
other vessel can be drawn and accurately measured without the use ot measures or tunnels other than such as are
embraced in the Kauect itself. While lt obviales altogether
the uxe of measures, It operates much more perfeetly thau
tbe old method of drawing and measuring such Mquids as
have a tendency to foam np when drawn, as coal oii, linseed oil, etc.
The Proprietor has made arrangements with GALLAGDER, WEED & WHITE, of the Callforntn Brass Foundry of thiselty, for tbe manufacture of this Faucet, and Is
Prepared to furnish the urticle or sell terrilorles. Here ls
prance tor men with small capital to Invest in a goed
