AN OBJECT LESSON.


A physician puts the query: Have you
never noticed in any large restaurant at
lunch or dinner time the large number of
hearty, vigorous old men at the tables;
men whose ages run from 60 to so years;
many of them bald and all perhaps gray.
but none of them feeble or senlle?
Perhaps the spectacle is so common as
to have escaped your observation or COM
ment, but nevertheless ii is an object les
son which means something.
If you will notice what these hearty old
fellows are eating you will observe that
they are not munching bran crackers nor
gingerly picking their way through a
menu card of new-fangled health foods;
on the contrary. they seem to prefer a
juicy roast of beef. a properly turned
loin of mutton, and even the deadly broil-
ed lobster is not altogether ignored
The point Of all this is that vigorous
old age depends upon good digestion and
plenty OF whole some food and not upon
dieting and an endeavor TO live upon bran
crackers.
There is a certain class of food cranks
who seem to believe that meat, coffee
and many other good things are rank pois-
ons, but these cadaverous sickly-looking
individuals are a walking condemnation
Of their own theories.
The matter in a nutshell is that II the
stomach secretes the natural digestive
juices in sufficient quantity any whole
some food will be promptly dlgested: n
the stomach does not do So and certain
foods cause distress one or two Of S4uart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will

just what every weak stomach lacks, pep

TRAINING IN WITH THE PARTY.

The way to DO the most good in the
political world is not to go off and form
a little party all by ones self but to
vote for the party that opportunities
the right most nearly. 1t is the ma g
of the army that wins the battle, not
the sharpshooter, and the mass must
be quickly and unitedly hurled against
the enemy, not split up into lot OF
Independent detachments. If there Ia
any great reform work to be sccomp-
lished it must be done within the party,
not by starting off on another track.
Kipling hasa good story about the
parts of chip getting to know each
other and learning to train IL, IS the
saying goes. It took them long time to
understand that cir r atest usefulness
lay in working in perfect harmony. They
com planned, and fought against their
lack of Independence; they INDUCED in
the old but ever.popular habit Of blam-
ing their neighbors for everything that
went wrong.
But after while they discovered
that II they worked in harmony every
thing went more happily, and instead
of jerking and joltipg and bucking
and heating, the machine as . whole
succeeded in accomplishing its destined
work.
Then every individual was 30 proud
of his accomplishment that he took
all the credit to himself, but it was
done in good natured way and they
all really knew that the steam without
the cylinder would be futile, the
screw without the crank would be An
inert mass of dead metal, the shaft
without true bearings would be .

50 with q political party. There May
be faults and there may be things some
Of us do not like, but of two parties
one must come nearer the right than
the other. The various elements Of
that party by working IN perfect harm
ony can accomplish more of real and
lasting good than they can by holding
off and criticising each other. Every
little screw in the machine is neces-
sary. So every little worker in the
party helps it to achieve it's great pur-
poses. And great things will nos be
achieved without perfect organization,
any more than will ship move when
the engines are uncoupled.

Men do not like to go to doctors. Nine
times out of ten they wait until they are
laid fat their backs before they will
consult physician. There is some reason
in this, for when a business man feels out
of sorts and goes to physician, he is often
given violent drugs that make him, for
time, unfit for business and really sick.
There is way of avoiding both extremes
that of neglecting the health and that of
