Prof. F. T. Miles, Of the faculty Of
the University of Maryland. delivered
lecture to large audience of young
men recently. on Food and Diges-
ton" In the course Of his lecture
Prof Miles. in speaking Of the effects
Of an insufficient quantity Of food.
said: 1.-THE fat disappears first then
the muscles waste away. and finally
the bones come through the skin. Tho
brain, the spinal cord and the nerves
are nourished to tho last Like king
in . beleaguered city to whom his loyal
subjects give up their food. the nobler
organs are longest nourished In
starvation there il not simple hunger
Of the stomach. but hunger Of the
whole body. It II not strange that
when hunger presses on people they
will do strange things It produces
insanity. and they have been driven to
eating what has been called strange
flesh;' that is to cannibalism. There.
are millions Of people who have not
enough to eat It is at the bottom Of
anarchy. The police may give them q
loaf Of bread. but the whole body Is i'll
nourishcd. and q restless feeling re-
suits. Not much can be done with the
grown-up people of the criminal
classes, but the child criminal comes
first The criminal classes are called
dirty. lazy and ugly. OF course they
are. They are dirty because they have
no spare heat to let 60; lazy. because
the muscles are weak and nature tells
them to keep still when hungry.
You would be astonished to know how
much of the beauty of the fairest
women is made up of fat. The GRIM
inal classes are ugly becauge they have
no fat How could q child whose mus
cles and nervous system have been
partly starved be expected to have all
the sympathies and instincts Of high
er class of society? An everyday Sab
bath-school with a breakfast before the
lesson would be a capital thing for
poor children. Some say the poor
themselves are to blame for their con-
dition by living too luxuriously. One
of the most intense cravings Of the
Greedy Arctic party was for sweet
meats. Tea and coffee do more good
than harm. They stimulate not only the
brain, but the activities of the whole
body. There will be a great mission
to the poor some day to see that they
get enough good food. baltimore Sun.

Territory, and was locked for to-day in
Mooseneck. 1t was visit Of moment, and
the inhabitants stirred themselves with the
dawn in its anticipation. Paul Elchard, too,
was out for the first time since his injury.
and, very carefully picking his way to seat
among the pines on the slope above the
house, sat through the long, delicious morn

seemed to pervade the thoroughfare that
laid it open in two rather struggling halves,

was very enlivening to the numb and sleepy
town.
BY midmorning two triumphal arches
were sprung across the street, made green
with twining vines and blooming sprays,
and bearing legends of welcome wrought in
flowers: on the one "Hal to the Lords
Anointed-' and on the other "Ihe Lords
Prophet is Our King" Many of the house
fronts, too, were made fine with floral green
cry and welcoming devices. But all this was
