Perhaps the greatest error that Is
made in diet is the almost universal
habit of eating too much, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. 1t will be found
by any earnest student of the food
question who will practically expert
ment that the starch foods conduce
greatly to the habit OF repletion.
Where hot breads and griddle cakes
are common article OF diet, such
foods are apt to be eaten twice, thrice
and even four times the needed guam
tity. Where very little hot bread Is
eaten, it will be found that there are
many preparations of buildings, tarts,
sweets and pastries that tempt the ap-
petite and tend to the use OF excess
sive quantities. 1t is verified that
person accustomed to eating bread,
buildings, macaroni or like foods finds
these preparations with their usual ad-
juncts not only very tasty and attrac-
tive to the appetite when they begin
eating, but find them also tasty and
tempting long after they have eaten
greatly in excess of their needs. In
contrast to this it will be found by
those who have substituted fruits for
starch foods-and who have exclu-
sively followed this diet for few
weeks-that, while at the commence
ment of meal these fruits are very
tasty and enticing, the relish recedes
% the needs of the system are sup
piled,

Power of Golden LOckA


Authenticated women have ruled
the world; not women with brick-dust
colored topknots, but those whose
heads are crowned with soft, waving
locks, redgold only in the sunlight.
Xantippe, Helen Of Troy, Cleopatra,
Catherine OF Russia, Queen Elizabeth.
Nine. Recamier, Marie Antoinette and
many others who made history for
the world had such hair.
The woman with auburn hair is in
tense in her love, and thus she rules
men, says the New York Telegram.
Then, too, auburn haired women pre-
serve beauty. Among those Of the
past whose physical beauty lasted till
past fifty is Helen OF Troy, who reach
ed the zenith Of her charm and came
upon the stage of fame at forty. AS
pasta was thirty-six when she was
wooed and won by Pericles. Thirty
years after she was a brilliant figure.
Cleopatra was long past thirty when
she met Antony. Henry VII. was cap
tivated byt Diane of Poitiers when she
was thirty-siX. The king was half her
age, yet his devotion was permanent.
At the age of thirty-eight Anne Of
Austria, was regarded as the most
beautiful woman Of Europe. Louis
XIV. married Nine de Maintenon, the
governess of his children, when she
was forty-th years old. Catherine
of Russia was thirty-three when she
seized the throne which she occupied
for thirty-fve years. Mile. Mar was
in the zenith Of her beauty at forty
five, and Nine. Recamier between tho
ages Of thirty-fve and tifty-fve.

NOT QUITE FIVE THOUSAND,
The Latest Estimates are Reduc-
ing the Death List From
Galveston.

Galveston, Texas, Sept. O.
The Galveston News list of deac
from the storm of September s
represents a total of 1859 names.
The indications are that not more
than 1000 people will be actually
accounted for. The News has
made a diligent effort to get as
complete list of the dead as pos
sible. 1t is reasonable to assume
that 500 or 1000 people were lost
whose names are not obtalnable,
which would make the total death
list on Galveston island than 5000.
The News is of the opinion that
the death list on the island is be-
low rather than above 5000.
This statement is made notwith.
standing the fact that there are
close observers in Galveston who
are still estimating the death list
on the island as high as 1000.
Nearly 10000 men went to
work today cleaning the streets
and beach front of debris and dead
bodies. The wages are 81 a day
for laborers, SO for men and carts
and SO. so for four days labor
under Adjutant General Scurry
for this class of work authorized
bv the central committee, was
finished today, The pay roll
aggregated S71OO.
A board of government engl-
neers will meet in Galveston on
October 20 for the purpose OF
investigating damage to fortllica-
tions and ietties and other govern
ment property. They will hear
the reports now being complied
by Captain Richie. United States

and will make suitable recommen.
dations as to the restoration OF
property, to be presented by the
war department to congress.

WELL wATERED.

Tie lands outside of the mountains are
undulatlng prairie, well watered with Nv
ing streams of water is found by digging at
depths of twenty to til irty feet. All the
streams bear more or less fringe Of tim
ber. while large areas are covered with a
growth of mesquite trees, timber which
make good fence posts and is excellent
fuel. Other sections and some streams bear
n growth of timber large enough to saw into
timber. Any or all of these timber lands
are productive, and will mako fine farms.
RYAN act of congress approved June d,
,ooO. the above reservation is to be opened
to settlement. On the north side OF TINS
reservation is another known as the Wichita
reservation, which may be included at the
sane time, but tins is not yet known The
law opening the reservation, provides mat
the allotments shall be made In from three
to six months, and makes it abe duty OF the
President to issue proclamation opening
the country within six months after the al
totments are made. 1t is not likely that
the President will take the six months, ana
and ne NAV issue his proclamation immedi-
ctely after the allotments are made Thus
it may be seen the lands may he open at any
time from the early spring to summer ol
next year

PRODUCTIVENESs.

There need be no doubt of the produces
iveness .of these lands. They have been
tried in every quar,er with result that has
produced 20 to 80 bushels OF wheat, and AZ
10 80 bushels OF corn per acre. These cropa
have been raised by farihers living on In
dian lands. The valleys of the washitl OF
Cache creek. Beaver and other streams are
more or less cultivated every year, and al
ways give good returns. Tee uplands are
productive Of all cereals, and afford the nm
est grazing in the world.
The.lands TO be opened to white settle
ment. aster the Indian has taken his aIlot~
ment. will give comes TO nearly 10000 fami-
lies. The price OF these lands viii be $1.25
per acre, payable at the end of five years
residence. No better chance to get home
in this superb climate will ever be known
again. The climate is all that can be desir-
ed, being happy medium between the hot
climate of Texas and the cold climate Of
Kansas or Missouri The days are never eX-
ces,ively hot nor the winter excessively
cold. In summerddays tie mercury seld, m
goes above a hundred, while the nights ars
invariably cool. In winter the mercury
seldom goes below zero, and then for onlya
day or two. The reservation has one line of
railroad on its northern border, following
The Washita river with two more surveyed
and will probably be built before the OPEN
ing which will give market facilities equal
TO an older country.
