Health Notes.
At a dinner party, a young and gallant fellow asked a Western girl to partake of some cake, and received the reply: “No, I don’t want no more. I have had a genteel sufficiency and my stomach is diabolically full.” “You shouldn’t say that,” remarked a Boston girl. “You should ejaculate, ‘By no means, sir; my gastronomical satiety admonishes me that I have arrived at the ultimate of culinary deglutition consistent with the hygienic code of Esculapius.’” —Fort Wayne Hoosier.
