The prevalent idea that slow eating
is very favorable to digestion is large
ly fallacious, says the journal or
Mental and Nervous Diseases" "The
important point is not that we eat
slowly or fast, but that when We do eat
we chew with energy. OF course,
where the haste is due to some mental
anxiety, this may injuriously inhibit
the secretions. Slow eating begets a
habit of simply mumbling the food
without really masticating it. while
the hurried eater is inclined to swal-
low his food before proper mastication.
Hence, hurried eating is bad, but rapid
mastication is advantageous. 1t con-
centrates our energies on the act in
question, and hence more thoroughly
accomplishes it. Moreover, energetic
chewing stimulates the secretion Of
saliva in the most favorable manner
These various points are SO commonly
misunderstood, at least by the laity,
that they demand Dull frequent atten-
ton"

The supreme court at Pierre, S.. D.,
has handed down an opinion in the
case of the state versus Charles r.
Rankin, declaring unconstitutional the
law passed by the last legislature re-
quiring all c~anvassers for business
houses out of the state to take out a
license. The defendant, Rankin, repre-
scented a Minneapolis tailoring COM
pany and was arrested something over
a year ago for soliciting orders with
out taking out a license. The lower
court sustained the law, which the
supreme court has now declared uncon-
stitutional on the ground that it in
terferes with interstate commerce.

Very few men can be found who have
no unfulflled desires which they are
striving to crafty, or who are so alb
solutely secure of the future that they
may give literal heed to the Biblical
command to take no thought for the
morrow. But this forethought is not
worry-it is merely incertitude, pru-
deat care for the future, Or even slight
anxiety. Hararsing anxiety. impatient
expectation, disproportionate fear OF
the unknown-this is worry, and this
is what causes the heart to struggle,
the arteries to weaken, and the mind
to fail.

looking probably for the nearest sa-

stumbled against her, upset the basket

aside to laugh at the invectives which
he supposed his trick would bring
forth.

that weapon. 1t is merely another

"God forgive you, my son, as I do"

The rudeness that had counted on a
bitter berating was softened in an in
slant. The mans parse lips parted,
his hard eyes fell, he tried to speak;
then he thrust his hands into his pock-
cts and pulled out all the silver he had.
This he forced upon the silent woman.
Take it," he said, and then added,
as she looked at him in establishment,
God bless you, mother! "Ill never

That which Is probably one of the
hardest sayings of Christ to accept,
one that has received the ridicule Of
centuries, is illustrated by this Incl
dent. The principle involved in the
command to turn the other cheek to

natural human impulse. "A soft an
swer turneth away wrath" is a form of
presentation of the same principle, that
in theory, at least, is somewhat readily
acknowledged, and it's truth vas never
more emphatically verified than in the
incident we have described.

BARRIERS Wsra Misranrsssntsd,

The Journal and Capital last week
contained articles on the plan for secur-
ing the BARRIERS license bill which were
entirely misleading. They gave the opin-
ion that the bill was fostered by the bar
bers' union as means Of crushing the
Ron-unionists, and took occasion to say
derogatory things about the principles Of
unionism. Regarding the matter Presi-
dent-elect Hypes, of Journeymen Bar
bers' Union No. rs, made the following
statement to Journal reporter:
"It is a general movement in which
all the BARRIERS of Kansas are interested
and 1t does not In any way involve a
contest between the union and non

jOurneymen. They are all alike in favor
Of It.
"I have submitted a plan to the bar

plan, we shall, Of course, adopt that.
The purpose of the bill Is not to drive

SAFETY IN BUYING SEEDS.

There is no other way to measure the
value Of seed than by the value of the
crop. A good crop simply cannot come
from poor seed. Second-rate seed will
waste good land, good fertilizer and
good labor, and the crop won't pay ex-
penses. Now, as the practical farmer
cannot afford to waste time testing seeds
10 find out whether they are true to
name, sound and clean, it stands to
reason that the only safe way to buy
seeds is to seek the protection of name
that has stood for reliability in the past.
The great seed house of d. M. Ferry &
Co., Detroit, Mich, has sold seeds all
over the United States and Canada for
the last forty-two years and the steady
growth Of the business is sure indica-
tion that Ferry seeds have given satis-
faction. Ferry's Seed Annual for 1898,
a standard guide for farmers and gar
deners, containing much valuable in
formation, is sent free to persons writ
ing for 1t.
