Eating and working.

Big eaters are seldom great workers.
People who eat more than is needed to
repair the waste and nourish the system
spend the vitality in the processes OF
digestion that otherwise might be de-
voted to muscular OF mental work.
Nature is wise. She gives the greatest
help to tho hardest worked organ. The
glutton is put to sleep after each repast
by having the blood belonging to the
brain sent down to help the crowded
stomach. Some Of the grandest work in
literature and art and some OF the
greatest victories In history have been
won by men under the pressure OF
hunger. Thinkers. singers and fighters
think better. sing sweeter and hit
harder when they are a tribe hungry.
overeating is n tremendous, mistake.

 POPULISTS ENTHUSED. They Claim to See Ahead of Them in the Senate THE BALANCE OF POWER -a2
 6d Results in the West to Bring About the Needed 
 Change.
THE BALANCE OF POWER

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-Populists here are claiming that great reeults will follow in the western states from senator's defec- tion in the republican party. They claim that Idaho will go for the populists, but Senator Dubois, who leaves for the west tonight, denies this and also asserts that neither himself nor any other western sen- ator will follow MT. Jones' example. The other states which will elect senators this fall and which it is claimed will be more or less affected by the action of Senator Jones are Colorado, Montana and Wyoming. It IS within the range of possibilities that all the states may have legislatures controlled by populists, and instead of sending back republican senators will elect populists. Colorado has already been carried by the populists. The members of the house of representatives from Colorado belong to that party.
 In Wyoming the legislature chosen two years ago failed to elect a successor to Sem ator Warren because the populists held the balance of power and combination could not be formed between either of the par ties, none having majority of the legis- lature.
 The same was true of Montana, where a successor to Senator Sanders could not be chosen. It is asserted by republican sena. tors that when congress reassembles a motion will be carried in the republican caucus to remove Jones from the finance Committee, and to replace him by repub- \ lican silver free coinage advocate. When Jones' colleague, Stewart, some time ago announced his withdrawal from the repub- lican party, he held place on the commit tee on appropriations. He was removed and Teller put on in his place. The popu- lists claim that with the election of Till man from South Carolina, and such acces- sions to their ranks as seem to them now alA ADI, -1w. -Azs.. IL. balance of power in the senete in the future.

A Negro Superstition.

"While I was in Florida was great deal amused at an incident witnessed, which illustrated @ superstition that ap- peared to be prevalent among the ne- groes," said tourist "One day an old negro who had been out rabbit hunting came home, bringing with him an i'm mense rattlesnake which he had killed. He exhibited his trophy with pride to a crowd of tourists who were standing about in front of the hotel The reptile measured feet inches and had 12 rattles and a button. One of the guests offered the ne gro $1 for the rattles The negro did not seem to think that was enough for so valuable trophy and said he would not sell them for less than $2.
 Just at that moment another old negro came upon the scene, and upon hearing what was going on said to the owner of the snake 'Doan yo' cut off dem rattles. ,
 "'Wharfo' won't I cut of dem rattles eff kin get $2 for umP' demanded the other
 "'Doan' yo know dat eff yo' cut off dem rattles yo' goblind? When yo' cut lem of, de milk ob de snake fly up in yo' eye an blind yo''
 'The owner of the rattlesnake pondered for a moment, and then he said: Elf any gentleman give me $2 for dem rattles, he can have 'em. cut lem of, an ef go blind all right. I'ze seen ernuff any how '"-St. Louis Globe Democrat
