With an average income much greater
than that enjoyed by any other people the
inhabitants Of the United States naturally
spend very much Of their earnings in SUD-
plying themselves with food. Fully one
half of the wages paid the working people
both here and in Europe is spent for the
food OF themselves and their families. and
to advNe looking to reduction of this ex-
penditure and an increase of energetic re-
suits Prof w. o. Atwater has recently ad-
dressed himself. The professor, who is
among the best informed of men on such a
subject. has contributed to the September
Forum a most interesting article on Food
Waste In American Households" To him.
and to any others who will give the subject
brief consideration. 1t seems a little strange
that when food costs SO much more than
clothing, rent and other necessaries of life
indeed, as much as all the rest together
people should know so little about its real
value for nOurishment. When" says the
professor, IAN intelligent man buys a coat
he has a pretty fair idea as to whethe- IL
fits him or not, how much wear there is in
IL and whether he can get as good fit and
as much wear in another kind of coat at
less cost. But when he buys his meat and
Hour and potatoes he has really very little
definite information as to how much nutri-
ment they contain, whether the nutritive
materials are OF the kinds and in the pro-
portions that are best adapted to the bodily
wants of himself and his wife for their
work. and of his growing children for the
healthy upbuilding of their bodies. I.or Dies
he know exactly whether or not he miyht
obtain just what is needed in equally useful
forms and at much less cost He is very
apt to have the idea that what his family
wants and must have is good, nourishing
food and enough of it This is an excel
lent principle. but in practical application
IL is apt to mean get the kind Of food you
like; do not mind If it is expensive. fer the
best Is the cheapest, and make sure that
you eat enough The result is bad economy
in the purchase Of food, waste in the use
Of il and, too often. injury to health. And
unfortunately the poor are the ones that
practice the worst economy and suffer most
from it." From that text might be preach
ell a sermon of several hours length, and If
the people in whose behalf this agitation is
being made would only pay close attention
to the homfly they would be wonderfully
benefited. High priced food is not always
the best food; in fact. 1t IS often the worst

Again and again has it been urged by
financially interested advocates of the over
head trolley method OF street car propul-
sion that an underground trolley must
necessarily fail when the conduit in which
IL was designtd to run had in 1t either water
or snow. The inaccuracy Of such state
ments has been proven in Buda-Pe5th for
a long while. but now there has been local
demonstration such as may not be upset
by hired language. For several months the
u street branch OF the Rock Creek railroad
which branch is operated on the under
ground trolley system-has worked smooth
ly and successfully. Last week this city
suffered from a rainstorm of the fiercest
sort. and although that storm filed much
OF the conduits and for time submerged
a portion of the tracks the operation Of the
road was not impaired in the least. the troll

remarkably dry summer. Uninterrupted
traffic under such conditions completely
and forever puts an end to the arsu-
ment OF those who would ruin the beauty
OF our streets and imperil the lives
OF our people by the erection OF unslghtly
poles and the stringing of death-ladeu
wires. For this satisfactory motor and for
its presence in this city thanks SHOULD be
given Congress. The enactment Of the law
which prohibited the further stringins Of
overhead wires and congressional refusal
to grant special and dangerous privileges to

Senator Wolcott's reputation as a gifted
orator was not impaired by his ,irort of
yesterday. He has happy way of express
ing himself and draws upon scripture as
though his cause were one to warrant ap-
peal to that high authority in its behalf.
He is dramatic and at times sensation al
He makes one of those glittering speeches
which will carry a popular audience TO en-
thusiasm. but when submitted 10 the care

is found woefully devoid of substance. 1t
shows none of the deep research and broad
comprehension of the subject apparent in
such discussion of the financial question
as was made by Senator Sherman. What
Mr.. Wolcott said will please his constitu-
ents and their sympathiZers, but it will
make no converts to their faith. Il was a
smart bit of special pleading and the bug
aboo of political. if not commercial and
Industrial, coalition between tbe south and
west was cunningly introduced for the pur-
pose Of frightening those who can be intimi-
dated by shadows.

Antoine Bacetic-Ban Is dead. The circle
of his acquaintance was not large, ana only
a few are left who by the ties OF kindred
or personal friendship will feel compelled
to mourn his departure, but he deserves to
be remembered, for he sacrificed MS lie as
a protest against the neglect of the average
boarding house keeper. A little more than
two months and a half ago Antoine, who by
profession was fireman on a steamship. en-
gagged a room and board in Philadelphia.
At that time he weighed It's pounds and had
an appetite such as is commonly possessed
by vigorous men who are on the sunny side
Of fifty years of age. One day the dinner
bell rang and when Antoine took his accus-
toned seat at the table he failed to find
either his knife. fork or spoon. He waited
a while. imagining perhaps that the omis-
sions would be supplied. but they came not,
and in his wrath he appended himself and
left the dining room. From that time until
when. 20 days later, he said farewell to
Philadelphia and good table board" he ate
nothing. nor would he take any Of the med
icine which after awhile was proffered him
by the doctors who were called in. The
failure to supply Mr.. Bacetic-Ban with the
instruments necessary to the polite con-
sumption OF food may seem to some people
only q small matter, but it is sincerely to

After a series of struggles the like of

history. the bill designed to give Ireland
the home rule for which she has so long and
SO righteously clamored passed the house
Of commons by vote Of 301 to 2S7, and is
now In the keeping of the house Of lords.
That Gladstone should have succeeded in
holding his majority so well together is a
source Of surprise even to those who have
long acknowledged his great ability as a
leader. Elements so diverse that reconcilia-
ton seemed impossible have. with occa-
sional exceptions. moved together harmoni-
ously to the accomplishment of great
work. and although the bill will surely be
defeated in the house Of lords the labor has
not been In vain. An appeal to the peov le
of Great Britain following Immediately
the action of the hereditary house would
almost surely result in an increased Glad
stonian majority, and upon a second pre-
sentation Of the measure the lords would
not dare q negative vote. To extremely
conservative Englishmen the home rule bill
appears startling, but all other men see in
Il nothing that can be regarded as inequi-
table, nothing calculated to endanger the
safety Of the British empire.

great practical value to the poor man.
Round steak at fifteen cents a pound"
says Prof. Atwater, contains as much
protein and energy. is just as digestible
and Is fully as nutritive as tenJerloin at
hfty. Mackerei has as high nutritive value
as salmon and costs from an eighth 20 half
as much. Oysters are a jelicacy. If one

calories of energy. The same twenty-five
cents spent for -four at six dollars a barrel,
or three cents a pound, would pay for 420
grams Of protein and 1900 calories of
energy" Mr.. Lee Meriwether, who has
studied the use and abuse of food for many
years, tells the story Of a laborer, who
boosted that he gave to his family the best

He paid S156 year for the incest cuts of
meat, cooked by his wife before o'clock in

When excellent butter was selling at
twenty-five cents a pound he paid twenty
nine cents for an extra quality. He spent
only S108 year on clothing for his family
of nine. and only s72 year for rent in a
close tenement house, where they slept in
rooms without windows or closets. This

remedy is to be found In the Incubation Of
better ideas Of the dignity and duty of saw
ing and by the spread Of knowledge OF the
arts and economies Of common lie, includ-
ing information as to the nutritive value
and proper uses Of food. That the fathers
and mothers Of today will lake hully to
closely economical teachings is not likely,
for If this generation Is afflicted in any one
particular it is with the idea that Il knows
about all that Is worth knowing, but the
children may be reached through the
schools, and especially through the indus
trial schools. for most of those institutions
have departments Of cookery. The man or

his or her fellow beings need not depart for

general commendation. The bishop enun-

no class at all in the European sense of

and yet 1t Is one which probably ninety

main assumption in any discussion of the

them is arrayed an organized and perma-
