out of work for time he walked off to a
logging camp and was watching the log

THE Hutchinson Ne,cs of last Sum-
day published a number of letters from
different prominent attorneys through
Che state, in which they gave their
opinion as to what IS best to be done
@ get Kansas prohibition out of the
soup. We notice that the majority of
these letters indicated that their writ
ors did not have much faith in the bill
now in congress doing any good, even
IL 10 should pass, as, in their opinion
soothing but constitutional amend
ment can cover the ground thoroughly.
As one attorney expressed it: IF Kan
sas is bigger than the U. s. may be the
prohibitory law will stand" Other
wise, she will have to be governed by
Che same laws that govern other states.

LITTLE local republican papers are
raising terrible hue and cry about
the independent, or peoples movement
that is going on throughout the state,
claiming that the farmers and laboring
men can get just such legislation as
they want through the republican
party. An extract from the Kansas
Farmer of last week will show what
the chances are in that direction. 1t
says:
1.-The alliance demands free and
unlimited coinage of silver, and the
republican majority in the house is
resorting to extreme tactics to prevent
it. A majority of the members of the
house favor the measure, but the power
of q party caucus is used to prevent
these members from combining their
vote. The alliance asks for a reduction
of tariff duties and a revision of sched-
ules which will do justice to the people.
Instead of that character of legislation
the Mckinley bill proposes to increase
duties on general average to above
so per cent, going beyond the highest
average we ever habitat of 1929,
when our manufacturing industries
were in their infancy. The alliance
demands the suppression of combina-
ti0ns in restraint of honest trade.
and about as far as congress has yet
gone in that direction is to propose
licensing of option dealers"

THE SCIENCE OF DIET.

Rules Which EVerV On0 OuRnC Co Know
and Be willing to Heed.
Many diseases are due solely to dis
regard of established rules relating to
eatables and eating, rules which every
one ought to know, and be willing to
heed.
Gout is caused by rich foods and slim
u1ating drinks; dyspepsia usually by eat
ing unwholesome food at unreasonable
hours, and diseases of the liver and
bowels result from the same cause.
Apoplexy is produced by drinking too
much wine. In Bordeaux, France,
more wine is drunk, and greater pro-
portion of the people die of apoplexy,
than in any other city in the world.
Eat slowly, and masticate your food
thoroughly. Mr.. Gladstone, it is said,
gives thirty-two bites to each piece OF
meat that he puts into his mouth. This
is a good rule to follow.
By swallowing your food without
chewing 1T, you cheat your palate as
we'll as your body. You fail to prepare
the meat for the action of the gastric
juice, and you do not permit the sail
vary juices to mix with the starchy
foods, to prepare them for further elab-
grafton and assimilation.
Never eat when very tired, or when
worried or excited, aad never work i'm
mediately after a meal. Exhaustion
and worry preclude normal appetite
and prevent digestion, as does labor
too soon after eating. Rest for twenty
or thirty minutes after meals.
Do not overload the stomach; it is
best always to leave the table with the
feeling that you could eat a little more.
The proper quantity of food eaten at
each meal will strengthen the stomach;
by eating too much, you distend and
weaken it.
Do not wash down each morsel of food
with swallow of water; drink what
you wish at the conclusion of the meal,
and not while it is in progress.
Milk should not be drunk in copious
draughts, but in sips, so that it will
coagulate in small Jumps or flakes, and
thus be more easily digested. 1t is best
eaten with a spoon in the form of bread
and milk.
Remember that meat broths contain
little or no nutritive properties; they
are simply mild stimulants. With the
addition of vegetables, bread, or boiled
rice, however, they become valuable
foods.
During the spring months, after living
all winter on meats and stale vegetables,
the system needs a radical change of
diet At this season one should eat
fresh fruits and sacculent vegetables
for their effect on the liver, the bowels
and the blood. Oranges, cherries, rhu-
barb, lettuce, radishes, green's of various
kinds, including dandelions, are all val
liable.
Good health il worth cultivating, even
at the expense of q little time and q
measure of self-restraint If men would
set watch upon their lips, they would
less often have to send for the Doctor
Leeds Eng.) Mercury.
