THE THEORY OF THE DIGESTION
OF FOOD,

The human stomach is a pear-shaped bag, into
which all food drops at when swallowed.
iEree things happen-the blood rushes into the
SUBSTANCE of the stomach mot into its interior)
10 beat It, thousands of little ducts or pipes pour
copiously forth fluid called the gastric Juice; and
then, the stomach begins a wave-like churning
movement, Which thoroughly mixes the gastric
juice with the food, and by-and-by changes the
whole into gray-lcokng, semi-liquid paste called
chyme This is digestion rs 1t takes place I'm

But, look you! II the stomach fails to furnish
the gastric juice, or fails to furnish enough of tt

A Curiosity in Colds.

From the Philadelphia Record.
"The general prevalence Of slight colds.''
said a well-known lawyer at the Cont
mental Hotel last g, ening, reminds me of
the sad case of an intimate friend Of mine
who suffers very much from annoying
colds. His first wife was robust woman,
who had a wealth Of fiery red hair, which,
according to his notion, must have kept
him comfortably warm at nights. Be that
as it may, when she died my friend mar
ried a dark-baired woman, and, strange
to relate, from the very first night of the
honeymoon he was afflicted with pester-
ing cold. He had a suspicion that the lack
Of that red hair accounted for his afflic-
tion, SO. by way of test, he sent his new
wife to the seashore, and, strange to say,
he enjoyed immunity from the cold during
her absence"

A White Cnt.s Eyes,

From the New York World.
On Columbus avenue between 93d and 94th
streets a white cat keeps the mice out of
the store OF Its owner There is nothing
remarkable in white cat per Sc, but the
owner Of this particular animal declares
that It Is a feline curiosity-a freak, in
fact.
'Look at that cats eyes," he said yester-
day; "ever see anything like them? Why!
don't you Sc. anything remarkable? Don't
know much about white cats, then. Now,
that cat, you see, has two blue eyes-I never
saw nor heard Of the like before. Cats
usually have gray eyes, but white cats as
rule have only one gray eye-the other
Is blue. Every white cat that I ever saw
but this one had one blue eye and one gray
eye Both the eyes Of my cat are blue
It is a wonderful freak of nature, I think
Go to any man who knows much about
cats-white cats especially-and see If he
doesn't tell you that I am right"

consideration and protection of a court of
equity l say that would not be a COM
piete answer. because we could not well
say that the complainant would have
remedy in an action at law. if a tresnasa
was committed, because 1t is shown in the
nil, and we may presume 1t to be true that
tne ehange to horse power by the destruc-
tion OF the trolley system, suddenly. with.
OUT any time on the part of the complain
ant to prepare other motive power to run
t.s cars, would cause considerable incon-
TO the public for the time being. But T
nnd, first, that the complainant has no
.awlui .. titie to the right which 1t asks
.he court to protect. 1t has no stand
H OF obtaining the relief which it prays.
secondly, it does not appear clearly by the
pleadings that the Commissioners will do
any unlawful thing if they are not re-
strained. That would be an additional rea-
son Tor declining to grant the injunction in
tnis case under the circumstances
think however, ! should be compelled
10 refuse the Injunction on the ground as
stated. I feel very clear OF the point that
this complainant has no right to come in
court to maintain a system Of electric pro-
Congress, which I hold to be a constitu-
tional act, one which Congress had right
to pass, and ask this court to grant N
protection In the enjoyment of that right
not know that it is necessary for me to
discuss this case any further. 1 cannot
see any way in which court Of equity can
properly be called upon to grant an injunc-
ton.
Not Like the metropolitan Case.
1.-The question here is entirely different
from the question in the case decided by
Judge Bradley in the case of the Metropol-
1ten railroad. That was a question as to
what might be done in the way of enforcing
judgment, and as to whether Congress
might compel the payment of q Judgment
by legislative enactment have no dispo-
sition to question that case. 1t is sufficient
to say that it is no authority whatever for
the granting Of an Injunction in this case.
The case which was cited upon the part
of the complainant, in the superior court Of
the state of New York, decided in general
term, while court of respectable author
ity, was clearly decided on the ground that
where the party undertook to maintain this
very system against a statutory prohibi-
ton, there they We're subject to be
pulled down, and that es against the
threatened act it was held that the court
will not lend itself or its aid to restrain the
municipal authorities.
Il think 1t is a clearly established prin-
ciple, one which must apply, and one as
old as the equity system itself, that the
complainant must himself show a clear
title to the right which he enjoys, and
must come into court with clean hands,
and if he comes asking equity he must do
equity; if he wants others to observe the
law strictly, he must do the same thing,
and not himself defy it. This being final
submission, l suppose the restI aiming order
will be dissolved, and the bill dismissed

CIVIL SERVICE IN CHICAGO.
Visit Here of Mr.. Clnrlz, President of
the COmmi isslOn.

the Commission.
Mr.. John NJ. Clark, the president of the
Chicago civil service commission, which
has recently been organized under the new
law of that state, has left Washington for
the west, after brief stay here, in the in
terest of the new commission. Mr.. Clark
was the collector Of the port Of Chicago
under the Harrison administration, and
during his incumbeEcy in that office gave
his hearty support to the principles of
civil service reform. The custom house,
with its hundreds Of positions, was sys-
tematically and consistently kept under
the protection of the law, and with most
excellent results. When Mr.. Clark was
placed at the head of the new commission
it was with the almost unanimous salts
faction of the people of Chicago.
THE new law which is to be put into ef-
feet is probably the strictest yet passed in
the United States," said Mr.. Clark. 1T
goes far ahead Of the federal law, and IN
many respects is an Improvement on the
Massachusetts or New York laws. There
is no office in the city government below
those which are elective or appointive un-
der the governor that Is made an exception.
Thus there are no loopholes for those who
might wish to evade the civil service syS-
tenn. There is no way that any one can get
a clerical position in the municipal service
hereafter without passing an examination:
And the appointment goes not to one OF
three persons to be selected by the. head of
municipal department. but to the appli-
cant who stands highest in the examina
ton. Thus merit is assured of its reward"
Mr.. CLARK during the worlds fair had the
selection of 400 employees, who were put in
charge of the foreign exhibits at the fair.
He insisted upon securing these employees
by civil service methods, and they all had
to pass examinations for the places. The
result, he says, was beyond all expectation.
An excellent class Of men was secured;
they were of high order of intelligence,
and, for the most part, they were ambi-
tious and active young men. They had
charge Of millions of dollars worth of ar
ticles, among them diamonds and other
compact valuables, which they could have
stolen almost without fear Of detection, but
not a thing was missing, and they per-
formed their duties with admirable effl-
ciency Under no other system of selec
ton, says Mr.. Clark, could such capable
and honest men have been appointed. His
experience in this work fitted him in a
considerable degree for the work he Is now
entering upon.
A part Of Mr.. Clark's errand here was to
offer to Mr.. ]. +. Doyle, secretary Of the
United States civil service commission. the
same office with the Chicago commission.
Mr. Doyle, preferring to remain here, very
politely declined, at the same time ex-
pressing his appreciation Of the honor i'm
piled. Tomorrow Mr.. Doyle will leave
Washington, to spend q week or So with
the commission in Chicago, as it takes UP
the work Of classifying the municipal Ser
vice aad arranging the examinations nee
eSSary.

From the Chicago Tmes-Herald
And now the tuber Is king. "Grow pota-

toms urgent appeal to the farmers of the
United States, and finally they have taken
his advice. Now they are beginning to
realize that they will profit by planting
more ground to potatoes instead of wheat
and corn. There is at all times steady
demand for the tubersr and they are quite
as staple as wheat and are not subject to
the fluctuations Of the latter. With the

have looked about for some more profit

profit for growers abroad, with small areas
to devote to the crop and the additional
expense of ocean freight rates, there ought
to be mocey in the business for the farm.
ers in this country, who have larger tracts
Of land and cheaper freight rates.
Secretary Morton has urged these facts
upon the American agriculturists ever
since he took charge of the agricultural
bureau, and his arguments are bearing
fruit. Government statistics indicate that
the acreage is constantly growing, and the
growers are paying more attention to the
cultivation Of the crop. Heretofore farm
ers have devoted a patch Of ground to
what they needed for their own use. The
SEED was put into the RrOuuu anu niue
attention given to the crop. Consequently
the quality deteriorated, and frequently the
man who might have grown thousands OF
bushels for the market found 1t necessary
to gay 81 bushel for potatoes when his
wheat was bringing less than one-half
that sum. America produces as fine pota-
toes as any other country, and more at
tention will be given their cultivation here
after.
The imports for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1894, were 3,022, BIS bushels. of the
value Of nearly one and a quarter million
dollars. Reports for the year ending June
So 1885, are not yet made up, but they viii
show greatly increased importations, for
the crop last year was $3.50 600 bushels less
This year there are 100000 acres scwn
to potatoes in the United States. New
YORK is the greatest producer. with Michi-
gan next II the former state acres
v hfch were sold for half as many million
dollars. Michigan produced 4.ooo0oo
bushels from 215,2I0 acres. Pennsylvania,
with a much smaller acreage than Miehi-
gan, raised almost as many bushels: Illi-
nois ranks fourth, and is among the heavy
producers.

while it has been urged by the counsel
for the complainant thet the defendant has
no lawful right to prevent the complainant
from using its trolley system, I do not
know for what length Of Time but I SUD-
pose upon the principle that they are en-

thing, or in attempting to do 1t, they will
themselves be liable to an action for tres
