New Artificial Foods to Replace
Meat.

In opposition to the determined yege-
tarians. who condemn all animal food.
there Is n growing number OF physiolo-
gists who insist that abstention from
meat. II continued for ages and genera
tons. Is responsible for the feebleness
and low intellect Of certain races. says
the New York Press. Chemists are
becoming more and more anxious TO
ind new sources OF heterogeneous foods.
and the artificial food industry has
developed widely in Germany, chiefly
in the large works which supply dye
stuffs, for which albumep Is an i'm
portant material.
The artificial foods are mostly mir.
lures of more or less secret compost
ton Thus. the tropon of Professor
Finkler OF Bonn. whose works are at
Muhlheim, consists of one-third of AMI
NAL and two-thirds of vegetable albu-
men. Albumenose is n frequent con-
stituent OF those foods. BY albumen-
ose Is understood a preparation which.
as regards solubility. occupies a posi-
ton intermediate between the orig
inal animal albumen and its peptone
The managers OF the Elberfeld Far
benwerke have made n hit with their

they refuse to give an opinion on
the recent theory of the earth's shape
pronounced by our annexed citizen.
Mr. Green of Honolulu. which is that
the earth mass. disregarding the
oceans. is in the shape Of a four-sided
figure. a triangular pyramid with its
base at the north pole and its apex
at the south. The oceans serve to re-
store the spherical form. This theory
is attracting a lot of attention here
among the "cosmographers." Qovely

Spiritualists Aggrieved.
Local spiritualistic mediums Tor
media if that's correcD are kicking
vigorously against an ordinance class
ing them among the amusements and
requiring license on that basis. They
say their SeanceS are not intended to
be amusing but instructive and want
to be treated as clergymen who are
tax-free. Personally 1 think they are
quite right; their shows are usually
depressing.
