WHY ENGLAND Is GREAT.
Theory Which Attributes 1t Largely
to Appetite and Digestion.

Theory w n1cn hILT1Dutcs AZ A>ui Scby
TO Appetite and Digestion.
One ingenious theory which accounts for
the absorption by Engiishmen of all the
available territory of the earth is based on
physiological reasons. 1t is asserted that,
owing 10 the exceptional construction ofthe
EcgliEh stomach, the Engllshman requires
a larger amount OF FOOD than any other
race does, that the Engiishman would
starve on an ordinary ration, and that con-
seauently ne has to steal the land OF all
other races in order TO get enough to eat,
says the New York World.
This theory sounds incredible, but 1t is
borne out by evidence furnished by the
menu of a recent banquet. AS a preparation
for listening to the speakers the guests
were expected to eat turtle soup, oyster
patties. mayonnaise OF lobster, filet OF
sole, and roast turkeys, pheasants and
blowers. This was intended merely to
whet their appetites for the real dinner,
called the entrees which were merely
the following:
..Barons OF beef, galantincs of capons,
veal and ham pies, York hams la gelee,
roast chickens, pigeon pies, tongues la
acarlate, calves sweetbreads, mutton cut
lets a la Portugatse, aspic de foie gras
IA Ia ancienne, turkeys stuffed with chest
nuts"
A few salads, tellies, puddings, cakes,
and other entrements and ices filled up
any remaining chinks, and then the diners
were prepared to hear what Lord Sails
bury had to say.
Vivsection is undoubtedly a cruel prac-
tice, but still there are reasons for desir-
ing an opportunity OF vivisecting Lon
don alderman just after lord mayors
banquet at Guildhall. 1t would not only
throw lipht on iufarpstiur prOhlpp,c or
physiology, but ii would also serve as a
lesson in ethnology and in international
politics. 1t would go far to confirm the
theory that the supremacy of the British
colonist. like the supremacy of the British
sparrow, is largely a matter of appetite
and digestion, and consequently in ac.
cordance with the laws Of nature.
