FOOD FOR TuouGur.

Mrs Rorer has come TO the defense of
the Welsh rarebit and declares that they
are better and mora digestible than bread
day for lunch. 1t will rob the rabbit OF
much of its spicy charm to know that 1t
is harmless. IL has for so long been asso-
ciated with late hours. racy suppers, Bur-
ton ale, Bohemianlsm and nightmares. With
a slight touch OF remorse IN the morning.
that IL almost shocks one 10 find matron-
~ lady enjoying 1t in the broad daylight
of midday meal.
This estimable lady has undertaken TO
dlspel some other popular faliacies about
food. she considers potatoes TO be little
better than poison II eaten to excess. and
alIots one a day as a moderate use of the
tuber In this she Is right 90 soma extent:
il is much better food for those engaged in
active employment than for those engaged
In sedentary occupations. and IL is much
inferior to some other vegetables for brain
workers.
Sugar--that il. the sugar supplied 20 the
tablc-she regards as an abomlnation. The
sugar OF fruit IS digestible and beneficial.
Apples are more wholesome unlocked. but
are desirable and more digestible when
cooked.
Oatmeal Is good. but does not agree with
all people. Mrs. Rorer advises that II be
cooked for three or four hours. She IA
vors cabbage and onions. but insists that
they should he KEEP; IN water that is Just
below the boiling point. so as 20 deprive
them OF all odor. Candy and pickles are

tributed to hysterical tendency. Most
women will be inclined 10 believe that. with
candy and pickles taoooed. the boy came
pretty near the truth when he said people
picked out all tho things one wanted 70 ia
and said they were naughty.
Mrs. Rorer's Doctrine Is attracting con-
siderable attention among medical men.
and the professional journals are sfvoca,-

Trry noxp SALE.

The recent government loan can be con-
sidered a success. II was not popular IN
the sense that the people at large were of
fered an opportunity 10 take United States
securities in small amounts, and yet IT
was a great advance over the dsrk-lanfern
nnanciering OF one year ago. IL has re-
suited really In the establishment OF the
principle OF popular loan as distinguished
from a private contract with clique. The
old syndicate. or at least some members
OF IL have. 20 be sure, made bid which
VIII result in SITS getting one-third Of the
bonds, but the popular loan policy has re-
ceived such vindication that hereafter
no president or secretary Of the treasury
viii dare set IL aside and negotiate secret
bond contract with a small combine of
great capitalists.
J. Pierpont Morgan went 70 Washington
City tn December. and there is very little
reason to doubt that plans were being
made for another deal similar 10 that of
February. 1865 1t is true that Mr. Cieve-
land has discIaimed any intention OF hay-
Ing midnight conferences with the head
OF the old syndicate. but II viii be very
difficult 70 disabuEe the popular mind CT
the idea that but for certain developments.
the old bond sale would have been repeated.
Mr.. Morgan wrote the president In Jann-
airy urging that contract on the lines
of the one OF February s. 1885, be made
with the syndicate for $3.50. 100000 in gold,
and had there not been popular as well
as a congressional uprising against any
more secret contracts. 1t is probable that
a decker with the syndicate would have
been made, and at very substantial loss
to the treasury department.
The syndicate price for the bonds year
ago was s1.044s. Had the syndicate been
given the exclusive disposal Of the new
issue, IL might have made bid slightly
higher. but nothing like what has been
obtained by the more popular loan. Nor
gan. knowing there would be competition.
bid sifoss but there have been PROPOSE
tons TO take over $50. 100000 In bonds at
even higher figures than these. How great
the loss 10 the government would have
been under a private contract, say at sl.o5.
can be easily estimated. The president
has said that he Is intensely gratified at
the result OF the loan. He ought to be.
II stands out In sharp contrast to the
other loan, made through his private and
personal engineering. by which the syndi-
cate made a profit OF sl2.ooo.ooo and the
government sustained a loss OF nearly half
as much But the credit of today is not
due TO the president or his secretary. 1t
should be given TO those persons and news
papers who exposed the scheme for another
private sale and made secret negotiations
impossible.
