DANGERS OF EATING.
A Senate Committee Discovers a Lot of
,Disagrecablc Things.

A Senate Committee Discovers q Lot of
,Disagreeablc Things.
Senator Mason has been sitting at
New York as a smelling committee for
week or ten days under the authori-
ty of the Senate to find out something
about the adulteratiOn of food. The
evidence that has been given him by
some of the witnesses is likely to drive
us all to starvation. Persons have tes-
titled that ordinary white bread Is
deadly poison and that the many cases
of heart failure that we hear of nova
days are directly due to the large con-
sumption of that staple and other
breadstuffs. Corn meal and oatmeal,
bread and milk ana griddle cakes are
deadly, while soda crackers are more
destructive to the human family than
dumdum bullets or dynamite bombs
Meat and potatoes have been demon
strated to be unfit for food; coffee and
tea contain II tannin that destroys the
lining of the stomach; fish are unclean
and unhealthful, because the waters in
which they Hive have been polluted by
tanbark and sewage of our cities; all
garden sass" Is unwholesome. be-
cause of the fertilizers that feed the
ground In which it grows. Chickens.
turkeys and geese are worse than beef
and mutton, because of the food they
consume. Water and milk are the most
prolific producers of disease germs. All
our cured meats are impregnated with
acids, and man might as well eat
clay of anthracite coal as such an In.
digestible thing as cheese. In fact. IL
the testimony Senator Mason has tax
er is true, there is nothing fit to eat in
all the universe. and the only way tu
avoid being poisoned is to pay your
board up to the end of the week and
quit eating

Ian Maclnrcn ON the Church.

Why should the church leave her high
place aud come down into the arena
where she VIII be put To shame? do
men come to church for petty pleasures
fit only for children, or for the satisfac-
OF their faith2 Would Christianity have
begun TO exist II the Apostles had been
pleasing preachers" and bright men,
and had given themselves to "socials''
and sales and talks? The church
triumphed by her faith her holiness. her
courage. and by these high virtues she
must stand in this age also. She Is the
witness to Immortality, the spiritual
home OF souls. the servant Of the poor,
the protector of the frendless. and Il
she sinks into place Of second-rate en-
icrtnlnment then II were better that hei
history should close. for without her
spiritual visions and nustcre ideals the
church Is not worth preserving. Ian
