WHEN TO EAT DINNER.

HardworAing men, especially in the
learned professions, are often puzzled
as to the right hours for their meals
and the right diet to be taken at their
meals. The much graver question OF
stlmuiants also interests them person
ally The fear Of a midday meal is
very common among brain workers. Al
good luncheon is apt to interfere with
inspiration, especially if any form Of
alcohol he taken. Tea, very popular
with scholars, is less objection
able as to its immediate effects,
but it is very dangerous, to d.
gestion, especially among scholars,
who, like workwomen, nearly always
take too much and prefer their tea to
be strong, red as blood" as Garrick
used to Say. The chief danger in taxi
ing too light midday meal is that
the student is at his worst, physically,
just before dinner time. Hence, dinner
is rendered a fresh source of dyapep-
sia and, if he strolls about before the
evening meal, he is apt to take cold.
The special stimulants of great men
have been recorded in their memoirs.
One OF the most remarkable records Of
this kind has come to ligt in Aubreys
"Brief Lives" founded on notes taken
by the author in the middle Of the sew,
.enteenth century. Few drinks are more
distrusted among brain workers in
these days than ale, but Pyrnne seems
TO have thought otherwise. He was
voluminOus writer, and his pamphlets
lest him his ears and endangered his
head. Aubrey informs us that "about
every three hours this (Pyrnnes) man
was to bring him roll and pot Of ale
to refocillate his wasted spirits; so he
studied and drank and munched some
bread, and this maintained him till
night, and then he made a good supper.
Now, he did we'll not to dine, which
breaks off ones fancy, which viii not
presently be regained."
The danger of priori reasoning
may be seen from the above quotation.
Those who have forgotten about
Pyrnne would take him from this note
OF his diet to be a Bohemian Of a we'll
known old-fashioned type; yet he was
stern, uncompromising Puritan, who
suffered muti,ation and the pillory, and
had violent and very unBohemian
prejudice against the stage. The diet
does not, then, proclaim the man. We
doubt, however, if the serious student
of the nineteenth century would do
well to "refocillate his wasted spirits"
by drinking a pot of ale every three
hours. Pyrnne was, perhaps, wise not
to dine. which meant to lunch in those
days, and implied a very heavy meal
But the munching of rolls all day and
good supper" were questionable. His
style was very caustic; perhaps, be-
cause Of the misrule Of Charles l, but
possibly also through dyspepsia, which
also had so disastrous an influence on
the literary temper Of Thomas Carlyle.

TIIE KEMIPSKI CAsE.

War is a stern thing, carrying with
it many hardships, not only to those
who enlist for service, but to many OF
those who are lett at home. When the
chief support OF a family goes 70 the
front those who are deprived OF the
fruits OF his earning capacity are nee
essarily thrown on their own re-
sources and the charity Of their nelgn-
bors. In too many instances these
are inadequate and suffering ensue6.
Such seems to have been the condl-
ton in the Kempsd case. He was a
lad possessed Of sufficient patriotism
to enlist for the defense Of his cUiin-
try, without giving due consideration
to the effect of such action on those
whom he had left at home. When
want came upon his widowed mother
and sisters he stood beuwixt love and
duty" and chose the former. He failed
TO return to Camp Tunnel, obtained
work in local manufacturing estab-
hshment, and contributed his earn
ings to his mother. Military dlsci-
.pline demanded an example to deter
others from following in his footsteps.
He was arrested, subjected to humih-
ating punishment at camp; sent TO the
Department of the East, court-martial-
ed, found guilty and sentenced to a
year Of hard labor at Governors
Island. The sentence carried with it
dlshonorable discharge and loss Of
citizenship Thanks to the friendly in
terest of Horace G.. Knowles, and
others who interested themselves in
the lads behalf the unexecuted part
Of the sentence has been remitted by
the secretary Of war. In other words,
Kempski has been pardoned and re-
stored to all his rights.
We believe that public opinion will
sustain the secretary in his magnai-
nous action. Had Kempski been a
coward it would have been different.
But young man who loves his mother
and brothers and sisters sodevotedly as
to run the risk OF eternal disgrace TO
alleviate their hunger must be a hero
and not a coward. We say this, all
the while recognizing the necessity for
rigid military discipline in time Of war,
and the force Of example to make
such discipline impress upon soldiers
the fact that in time Of public peril
lprivate interests must be kept in sub
servience TO public interests. and that
home Iove must be made subordinate
to love of country.

THE PENINSULA PRESS

There are thousands Of Republicans
in this state who are opposed to vote
buying. Are they willing that it shall
again become the controlling power in
our politics? Tear down these barriers
and what hope is there for an honest
ballot or for decent government?
Those opposed to the removal of the
safeguards provided by the Constitu-
tion should take no chances. They
should give their support to a party
which is opposed to a return to a sys-
tenn of debauchery. They should vote
the Democratic ticket.-Dover Della
warean.

THE CONSTITUTION TR1uMPHs

THE CONSTITUTION TRlUMPGIS.
In Kent county yesterday the court
performed an inestimable service 10
the people of Delaware. The convic-
ton of the negro preacher Collins OF
the crime OF paying the registration
fee Of a voter was triumph for the
anu-bribery provisions Of the new
Constitution, and a vindication OF the
provision which substitutes judges for
jurors in the trial OF election cases.
Collins was sentenced to pay fine OF
$1,000 and be imprisoned for SIX
months. While the judges were leni-
ent with him, the maximum term OF
Imprisonment being three years, they
served due notice that in future such
offenders would be given the full PEN
atty Of the law, as they were deter
mined to break UP bribery and corrup-
tion in the State OF Delaware.
Collins is but one Of a class. There
are dozens of Republicans and Ad-
dicksites who are even more guilty
Immediate steps should be taken tc
apprehend them and bring them &c
judgment. To the end that the i'm
pressiveness of the action be not lost
no mistakes should be made in thi.
particular. Let the prosecutors be sur,

Once conclusive evidence is in hand tn,

In three days time the election will
have been held and the contest in Del
aware finally and concluslvely deter
mined. Democrats have good cause to
congratulate themselves upon the ante
election conditions which exist. They
are united in all parts Of the state,
and ahead on their registration, while
their enemies are rent asunder by fac
tional differences which they cannot
reconcile.
III. every Democrat who is registered
will vote on Tuesday, the party will
elect its congressman, state treasurer,
State auditor, from thirty to thirty-fve
of the fifty-two members og the General
Assembly, a United States senator and
three. complete county tickets. Kent
county is the only debatable ground
and even there the Democrats are so
rapidly and effectively Strengthening
their position that many OF the Demo-
cratic leaders are sanguine OF victory.
In New Castle county the Republican
and Addicks rout is complete. By his
generalship Chairman Neary has the
enemy on the run in every direction.
In Sussex county the condition is just
as satisfactory, and we hope to see the
Democracy OF Kent county forge to the
front between now and Tuesday and
steadfastly hold its ground until the
polls close and the votes are counted.

Laws Of Delaware though it appears in
an appendix, was regularly passed by
the General Assembly and is, to all in

It's effect was to change the time
