periments, refuse to capture insects or
pay attention to fragments of meat
placed within their grasp. except when
the soil upon which they grow is lack
ing in heterogeneous elements. By supply
ing a fertilizer rich in nitrogen, these
so-called carniverous plants cease to
be carniverous and behave wholly like
other plants. The same principle APP
plies to the use of fat-making substan-
ces, such as starchy and oleaginous
foods, as nuts and cereals. The writer
has frequently observed in thin patients
a craving for fats, which disappeared
entirely after the patient had made a
gain of twenty or thirty pounds.
The writer reminds US, however, that
the sense of taste, although intended to
be q. guide to the proper quantity and
quality of fod, has been too often de-
of pleasure. He says:
Men and women treat the palate as
the pianist treats his instrument,
touching it in various ways simply for
the purpose of provoking pleasurable
sensations. with no regard whatever
for the possible needs of the body or the
possible damage which may be caused.
The sense of taste thus wrongly edu-
Gated becomes perverted and its indi-
cations become confused. Abnormal
cravings are developed, which demand
satisfaction in the use of tea, coffee,
wine, and other intoNicants. mustard,
pepper and other condiments. large
quantities of salt, pickles and rich and
savory dishes of various sorts, together
with sweets, ices and tidbits of all
kinds. The sense of taste has been de-
throned from its high position as gov
ernor of nutrition, and has come to be
merely the servant of capricious and
Unsuitable desire for an illegitmate
sensation, purely selfish animal pleas
ure. This is gluttony pure and simple
and is the apt tutor and hale compan-
ion of alcoholic intemperance.

FAvoRs VERTICAL WRITING.
New York Post.l

lNeW i Ork fOSt.J
After experimenting for year OF
more in the Philadelphia schools with
the vertical system of penmanship tn
superintendent of education in that
city is prepared to recommend that the
system be required to be taught in all
the lower grade schools. 1t has been
tried in 1872 of the city schools. and the
principals of 1913 of these schools re-
ported that the penmanship had i'm
proved in their schools since it's intro
duction. No one stated or intimated
that the penmanship had deterorated.
1t is the opinion of the primary teach
ers that the vertical writing Is easier
to teach, more readily learned by thu
pupil, is more legible than the oblique
hand and that the experiment has i'm
proved the penmanship in their schools
The only crIticism that they make, anf
that is not universal. is that it can MOI
be written as rapidly as the oblique
system Inquiry made in 100 cities
where the vertical system has beer
introduced brought ninety reports thai

been collected from forty norma

STAMP DECISION REVERSED.
Huntington Hawkeye.]
The legal, banking and commercial
world of Burlington, In common with
such centers all over the country, was
greatly stirred UP about a week ago
by the decision of Judge Woolson, of
the United States district court for
Iowa, in the celebrated case involving
the title to part of the mortgage plas-
tered Gillette cattle, seized by United
States Marshal from Jamison Bros, of
Louisa county. while the same were in
transit through Burlington.
| Judge Woolson held that the mort
cages We're invalid and could not be
| Introduced as evidence because they
| did not bear revenue stamps, for each
assignment of the note for which the
mortgage was given as security, equiv
alent to those originally required on the
mortgage. Opposed to this it was held
by some Burlington lawyers that mort
cages transferred through opera'on of
law, that is as security accompanying
an assignment of note did not require
such stamp; that the transfer of the
mortgage was merely an incident, a le-
gal consequence inseparable from the
| act of assigning the note; and that the
law did not contemplate the taxation of
an incident due to the operation of
| law, but Of documents actually exc
Icuted.
This view, unknown to Judge Wool
son and all others Interested in the
case. had already been adopted by the
commissioner of internal revenue, at
Washington in decision not made
public at the time of the recent trial.
and its effect is to nulify Judge Wool
sons decision: at the same time 1t
gives great relief to many anxious
holders of assigned notes secured by
mortgage, of which species OF property
there is untold millions in existence.

WOES OF THE scHooLMA'AMs.

The school teacher, that is. the wo-

they suffer from the general enactment
of what is possibly necessary rule,

and uncharitable, that when they
marry they must give up their places In
the schools. Those skilled in such mat,
ters say that a woman cannot well
teach and be progressive mother al

school teachers submitting to this rule
declare that the greatest OF all theii
grievances is financial.

IN DEFENSE of HENDERSON.

-
New York SUM
The Hon. David BreInner Henderson
possesses a loyal and vlgilant friend in
the person of the Rev, DIR. Julius a.
Ward, Of this borough. Dr. Ward has
written to us before Eow 10 defend Col.
Henderson against the aspersions Of
political enmity or the comments Of
hippant or too acrid criticism. He now
informs us that he has personal know
ledge of the fact that Col. Henderson
did not use in his Ohio speech the sur
prsing language attributed TO him con-
corning the commissioner of pensions
He did not say. as reported, IF We're
God l would not have made Evans"
This is a good thing to know, and the
authoritative announcement by DIR.
Ward confirms our previous supposition
that the next speaker had been misre-
ported. 1t seemed hardly possible that
after publically apologizing at Dubuque
as recently as June u for the great
wrong he had done TO III. Clay Evans
in the past, Col. Henderson should turn
around and attack the commissioner
Of pensions in the contemDtuous and
semi blasphemous language above quot
ed. We congratulate DR.. Ward upon
his ability to clear his friends reputa-
ton of so unpleasant reproach.
Candor compels US to add, however,
that our esteemed correspondent APP
pears to take his protective functions
perhaps trihe too seriously when he
protests against our description of Col
Henderson as "a warm hearted sort OF
a chap" He does not regard the phrase
as proper one to apply to parsonage
of the eminence of the next speaker.
1 His objection, we infer, is to the noun
| chap, rather than to the adjective
warm-hearted. DR.. Ward can not have
known Col Henderson long and init
mately without discovering the temper
ature of the organ that beats in his
bosom. The next speaker is a man Of
impulsive, generous habit, man of the
4 most social sort. 1t is to this quality
in part, that he will owe the high honol
which the republican majority in thu

personal Indifference; on the other
hand, either may be harnessed with
certain adjectives in a manner to frame
a compliment worthy of any speaker
or any president. When we speak of
Col Henderson as fine fellow. and
when we speak of him as warm
hearted chap, we are paying him the
tribute of sincere admiration which his.
own bump of language will be quicker
than DIR. Wards to understand.
Undignified? Not bit of 1T! Why,

the result of the election he said: NO
