Th. Humminr BIrd.. FIIrbt

The flight of the little humming bird
is more remarkable than that of the
eagle. We can understand the tapping
OF the eagles immense wing supporting
a comparatively light body. But our
little bird has a plump body. His wings
are not wide, but long, so he must
move them rapidly to sustain his
weight. and this he can do TO perfec-
ton. The vibrations of his wings are
so rapid as to make them almost invisi-
BILE. He can use them TO sustain him.
self in midair, with his body as notion
less as If perched on a twig. In this
way he can sip the nectar of the deli
cate, fine stemmed flowers without
alighting for a moment. He never
alights while so engaged. He moves
from flower TO flower with n graceful
and rapid movement, sometimes chas-
ing away bee or humming bird moth.
of which he is very Jealous. Nor is he
much more favOrably impressed with
any small birds that seem in his way.
He knows his power of flight, and he
has no fear OF any other bird.-Henry
Hales in st. Nicholas.

A story oft told is that of Lord -,

Mr.. Sugden, subsequently lord chancel-
Tor of England, in a parliamentary con-
test. Hes the son of n country bar

Replying afterward. Mr.. Sugden said:
"His lordship has told you that-I am

Der. but he has not told you all, for

FLAVOR IN FOODS.
This Quality IL az Much IA Necessity
as Is NutrimeBt.

as L. NutrimeBt.
Chemists tell MS that cheese Is one OF
the most nutritious and AT the same
time one or the cheapest OF foods. Its
nutritiye value is greater than mear.
while it's cost Is much less. But this
chemical aspect Or The matter does not
express the real value Of the cheese as
a food. ChePse Is eaten not because OF
its nutritiye value as expressed by the
amount or prOteids. fats and carbohy-
drates that il contains, but always be-
cause OF its flavor.
Now. Psychologists do not find that
flavor has any food value. They teach
over and over again that our foOdstuffs
are proteids. fats and carbohydrates and
that as food flavor plays absolutely no
part. But at the same time they tell us
that the body would be unable to live
upon these fOOdstuffs were it not for
the havors. If one were compelled 10
eat pure food without ffavors. like the
white OF an egg. it is doubtful whether
one could for week a time consume
n sufficiency of food To supply his bod
lily needs. Flavor is as necessary as nu-
triment. 1t gives a Zest To the food and
thus enables us TO consume 1t properly,
and. secondly. it stimulates the glands
TO secrete, so that the foods may be
satisfactorily digested and assimilated.
The whole art OF cooking, the great
development of fiavoring products, the
high prices paid for special foods like
Holsters and oysters-these and numer-
Gus other factors connected with food
supply and production are based solely
upon this demand for flavor. Flavor is
n necessity, but it is not particularly
important what the favor may be. This
is shown by the fact that different peo-
piles have such different tastes in this
respect. The garlic of the Italian and
the red pepper OF the Mexican serve
the same purpose as the vanilla which
we put in our ice cream. and all play
the part OF giving a relish TO the food
and stimulating the digestive organs to
proper activity. II. W. Corn
in Popular Science Monthly.

phia magnificent pair OF the large
black and white lemurs indigenous to
the island of Madagascar. This makes
the fourth pair of these animals
brought to this country. and. in addi-
ton to being highly attractive by rea-
son of their coat of long jet black and
snow white hair and their abnormally
large and luminous eyes. they are of
very great interest from the viewpoint
OF science and evolution.
The lemur stands in the same rela-
ton to apes and monkeys as they in
turn stand TO the human race, only in
the case of the lemurs and apes the
missing link connecting the two gen.
era is in real and actual existence, be-
ing realized in the "aye-aye," a pecul-
lar animal, also of Madagascar, that is
as much lemur as it is simian.

THE ExrREME OF FOLLY.


THE EXTREME OF FOLLY.
The most foolhardy man who ever
risked his life, or the most infatuated
gambler who ever risked his fortune, is
a sage compared with the man who
attempts to get the best of Nature.
The foolhardy man may succeed. The
gambler may win. But the man who
takes chances with Nature is bound to
lose. If the obituaries of tens of thou
sands who are cut down annually III
lifes prime were truly written death
would not be attributed to this or that
form of disease, but to an attempt to
evade the necessary laws of health.
The weak spot in the modern man is
his stomach. 1t is in disease of the
stomach that many of the nlaladies
begin which carry off the busy men of
the day. The seed of disease once
planted in the stomach grows and
spreads like some climbing parasite
about a tree. 1t throws out tendril
about the heart and presently another
which grips the lungs, and others again
which take hold of kidneys and liver.
Then suddenly the man is smitteu by
heart disease or lung disease; or sue
cu1nbs to some malady of kidneys or
liver. The real seat of disease Is the
stomach. And one of the reasons why
the diseases of the other organs often
fail of a cure is that the treatment
ignores the stomach, and attempts to
treat directly the other organs, whose
diseases are only symptoms of disease
of the stomach and other organs of
digestion and nutrition.
THERE'S PLENTY OF PROOF
of the soundness of the proposition that
diseases of other organs remote from
the stomach which are caused by dis
ease of the stomach must be cured
through the stomach, and. in fact, can
not be cured in any other way. The
best proof in the world is that Doctor
