Hints for Vegetarians.

We were talking about good dinners
at the club n night, and one Of the party
RECALLED US with a story about an elabor-
ate meal he had had at the home of a
vegetarian. Then the doctor broke in
and said:
cit is all very we'll for v~egetarians to
claim that their diet is more clearly,
more refined, more economical and more
healthful than ours, but you will find
that very few of them thrive on it. In
fact, obesity and diabetes can be traced
directly to living on potatoes and cereals,
which are the unsupported cause of much
of the illness of modern life. Brown
bread sets up an inflammation of the in
testines, and, if constantly eaten, slowly
produces a permanent arrangement of
digestion.
Hominy and cracked wheat-main-
stays of vegetarian diet-cause a strain
upon the vital powers, ending at times
in the breaking down of the V sys-
tenn. Cereals are laden with earthly mat
ter which finally stiffens the joints. In
fact, a proper diet would include these
articles in comparatively small proper
tions, but meat and fruit in abundance"
This is the opinion Of one physician;
there may be others who would tell you
something entirely different. You pay
your money and you take your choice

The Steel Maiden.

Nuremberg, "the cradle of invention"
the birthplace Of the watch and many
other useful mechanical devices, was not
alone the home of that which most is
useful and helpful to mankind. Among
some of her achievements are the most
horrible instruments of torture ever used
by the inquisitors Of the Middle Ages,
chief among which might be mentioned
the "steel maiden" The maiden is now
kept in n of the upper rooms of the
town hall and shown to visitors as a
curiosity.
At first sight one is apt to take it for a
gigantic statue of a woman, clumsily
hewn put of wood. Closer investigation
discovers two doors, one swinging to the
right and the other to the left. These
open noiselessly and. reveal the fact that
the statue is hollow, the cavity being
about the exact size of the average man.
Inside are straps by which the offender
was bound SO tightly that he could not
move limb or muscle. Both of the doors
are lined with long, sharp steel spikes,
strong and thick. When the victim was
firmly secured the door on the left was
slowly but firmly shut, the long spikes
going into his body, two being SO ar
ranged as to pierce his eyes.
Then the door on the right was closed
in a similar manner. whereupon he would
receive another complement of spikes.
the closing of the door, as before, being
done very slowly that the torture of the
person in the embrace of the maiden"
might. be as prolonged as possible.
Death did not come until the last spike
was driven through a hole in the door
into the heart of the victim. Taken
from the "maiden's" embrace he was
ground to mince meat and thrown into
the river as food for the fishes. st.

Skin Grating on a Foot.

The delicate operation of skin grating
was performed in St. Mary's hospital at
Astoria. The patient was Ole Anderson,
who had his left foot badly crushed at
the jetty. The skin from the ankle down
the side Of the foot for the space of four
or five inches square was torn off and
the flesh left exposed. From the leg of
Anderson several strips were taken, but
not enough to cover the space necessary.
Another patient offered to lend An
derson a little section of his cuticle. The
offer was accepted and from the patients
arm enough was taken to complete the
operation, and four out of the six new
pieces are growing nicely, and in a short
time Anderson will have a skin all over
his injured foot.-Portland O~regonian.

Handling Molten Metal.

In a car wheel foundry in Detroit a
very ingenious system for handling the
molten metal from the cupolas to the
TASKS, and carrying the wheels to and
from the soaking pits, has been intro
duced. The work is done by machinery
entirely, a series of overhead trolleys
moved by a wire rope connection carry
ing the ladies, TASKS and wheels. The
foundry has a capacity of 400 car wheels
per day, and about $50 tons of metal can
be handled in six hours by the new sys-

the death OF one of Hillsboro's young

that we say that the young man or the

becoming in every day life as was thai

The la grippe has visited quite mum.

One peculiarly of the disease is that il
seeks out the weak part of the system
OF the individual effected by it, often
leaving unpleasant weakness for months.
This Office was early visited by the Ia
grippe malady. OF course some of the
attaches were more seriously affected
than others, but all have about regained d
their wonted buoancy save the Office
clock. 1t still shows the effect of the re-
cent attack. The constitutional weak
ness OF our Office clock was mentioned
some time ago, and this additional COM
plication which seems to have settled in
the loins places our clock in the list OF
confirmed invalids. It needs constant
attention.

How Farmers are Taxed.

1t is not uncommon to hear our farm
ers complain OF the taxes they have to
pay. Sometimes they are too high and
the payment OF them could be largely
lessened by increasing the productive
power of an acre of ground. For in
stance: farmer who sows poor seed,
raises scrub stock, or buys antiquated or
imperfect implements, must certainly
pay proportionately high taxes. Not to
mention the improvement he might
make by getting the best seed and live
stock, he could buy a Deering Binder
or Mower, and save money in the har-
vesting of his grain and grass crops.
