THE POPE
Issues and Encyclcal to the Bishops
 on the Redeemer.

Rome, November 6.-The Pope has ad- dressed to the bishops an encyclical, dated November l, on the Redeemer. The Pontiff says he rejoices at the assemblage of Cath olics from all parts of the world in Rome during holy year, which, he adds, demon strates that the peoples are marching to- wards Christ. He exhorts the world to seek the Redeemer which the Pontiff points out is the road to truth and life, adding "As Christ's coming to the world redeemed society so the latter, in turning to Christ will become better and be saved by follow ing his doctrins and divine law, by dis countenancing revolt against the constitut- ed powers and avoiding conflicts"
 The people acted so, the encyclical con- tinues, they would all love one another as brothers and obey their superiors. Ne glect of God, the Pontiff further says, has led so many disorders that the peoples are oppressed with incessant fears and an- guish. He concludes with urging the bishops to make known to the entire world that the Redeemer and Saviour of man. kind alone can bring salvation and peace.

ANNUAL SMOKER"
 AND SOCIETY CIRCUS
Athletic Club Arranging for It's Two Yearly Entertainments on November 13
 and November 10

The Birmingham Athletic Club has just sent out formal notices announcing its two ever popular etertainments-the Smoker on Wednesday, November IA, and the "So- ciety Circus" on November 19. Both of these functions will be given on an elabor- ate scale.
 The Smoker" will consist of business meeting, at which officers for the follow ing year1Eill be elected and a report of the clubs financial condition made. It is also very probable that the question of the clubs new building will be taken up and discussed. After the business meeting re- treatments will be served. and an excel lent vaudeville programme presented,
 The officers of the club are claiming that this years performance of the Society Circus will be the smoothest and cleverest amateur performance ever given in Bir- mingham. All of the committees appoint ed are doing good work, the most conspicu- ous of all being that of the street advertis- ing crowd who bedecked the town in red the other night advertising the big show.
 It is claimed that the chief feature of this years performance will be the rising of the curtain at S20 o'clock-the professional schedule time. The programme which fol- lows is staid to be even more clever than last years performance, and if this is the case the success of the venture is assured. Many of the brightest young men in Bir- mingham are members of the Athletic Club, ard they are sparing no trouble In making this entertainment a distinct nov city.

OleO and Rutter Compared as Food.
The Hygienic Gazette says: Oleomar-
garine is claimed to be a perfect substi-
tute by chemists for butter. We have
understood that it was mainly made
from beef tallow added to other butter;
sometimes with the stomachs of pigs.
(Piper.) Sometimes muscle fibers are
found in the oleomargarine. (Piper.)
If this is sc we fail to see the pro-
priety of the name. The fat acid of the
tallow is mainly stearin. Margarine is
a fat peculiar to human fat. We don't
see why it is claimed for beef fat. So
that this butter ought to be called
''oleostearine." Taking then this nom
enclature, we have then two elements
to compare with ten elements as found
in the natural butter.
If this is so, it is difficult to see how
any one can say that the artificial prod
uct is as good as the natural. This is
more apparent when we consider the
substance, "lecithin.'' This is phos-
porized oil, and a peculiar constituent
of the system. Cooley found
it in the yolk of the egg, hence it is
named "lecithin.' 1t has been found
in the human blood in the proportion
of five ten-thOusandths; in the blood
of pregnant women ninety ten
thousandths have been found, and
in the blood of the umbilical ar
terry, sev~enty-ive ten-thousandths.
This lecithin is then nerve food
par excellence. 1t is used for
nerve growth and activity. An infant
3 months old receives about forty-six
grains daily. If our butter is to be
made from oil and tallow, simply be-
cause it can be the means of making
money for the manufacturers, and be-
cause the artificial product can deceive
the taste, touch and smell of the most
experienced, it is time for physicians,
at least, to stop and consider the object
of food, which is to furnish us with
healthy bodies and bones, muscles,
nerves, blood vessels; with force t.
run them so that soul and spirit, sur
rounded with a glorious, hale body,
may enjoy it's existence, as u Creator
intended it should.
Butter is a good nerve food. Oleo-
margarine honestly made may not be
unhealthy, but it cannot, in our opin-
ion, for the reasons given, take the
place of the normal product of the
mammary gland. If it does, would ii
not be cheaper for families to spread
tallow on their bread than to almost
throw it away in the scavenger, later
perhaps to be manufactured into oleo-
stearine?

FeIu the ArInIess Belgian Artist,
Wa Handy With His Toes.

Was Handy With His Toes.
American men think it a very merit
Drious and remarkable accomplishment
to be able to shave. themselves. Yet
Charles Francis Felu, the armless Bel
sgian artist, who has just died in his
seventeen year, performed this ardl-
Gus office every morning for himself,
and did not consider that he was doing
anything unusual.
Felu related how, when a baby, he
used to sit in the garden with his moth
GER during the long summer days, while
she taught him to pluck with his little
toes the bright-colored flowers with
which their garden abounded. Forth
fled by this practice, his baby feet be-
came daily more flexible and useful to
their little master. and when he a
reached the age of six he could do al
most as much with them as his little
companions and playmates could do
with their hands.
In later years. when he commenced
the study and pursuit Of his faVorlte
art, painting, it was a wonderfully III
teresting sight to watch the gifted boy
at work.
He always held the palette with the
great toe of his left foot, and manlpu-
Hated the different brushes, crayons n
pencils with the toes Of his right foot.
Always when at table he skilfuily man.
