Is brother of Ex-Representative Sui
lisAn of Pike and Dubois counties has
had a remarkable experience recently.
Mr.. Sullivan is 49, years of age and
has been a citizen of Pike county for

much with kidney trouble and rheuma-
tisln. His shoulders and side We're Very
sore and stiff, and his back was $40 bad
that he could hardly straighten up at
all. He had palpitation of the heart and
q smotherlng which was very distress
ing. He used three boxes of Dodd' s
Kidney Pills. and is as strong and we'll
as ever he was. He pronounces his cure
a miracle. Mr.. Sullivan - statement of
his case is startling:-
"a month ago l was cripple Today
can Go a hard days work every day
and have not a single ache or pain
Dodd's Kidney Pills have done some
Wonderful cures in Indiana but none
more miraculous than that in the case
of Mr.. Sullivan.

the child said. Mamma killed grand

LUXURY IN D,er.
me Rich Man Not So Much netter OF
Than the Poor One In Eating.

OF course the wealthy man pays good
deal more for his breakfast, luncheon and
dinner than does the poor man, but is
Dives, physiologically aud physically
speaking, any better for it? We doubt it.
Plain food is, on the whole, more ac-
ceptable to tho economy than are rich
morsels. 1t Is very questionable whether
from the strictly nutrltiye point Of view
champagne aud oysters are, after all, In
health an advance upon ginger beer aud
cookies, whether turtle is preferable to
calls head, or caviare to soft herring roe,
or plovers' eggs superior to the ordinary
eggs of the barn door bird. But there is
vast difference between the price of
champagne. say, at 10 shillings bottle
aud ginger beer at penny a bottle. and
between oysters at IS. Cd. dozen and
cookies at 80 for penny. and between
turtle soup at los. Cd. n pint and calf's
head soup ut siNpence platcful.
We shall be pretty correct in stating
that the man who buys common eggs in
stead of plovers' eggs and Calls head in
stead of turtle and n pigeon instead of n
partridge is the gamer, at any rate from
the economically nutritive point of view.
In other words. the price of M article of
food by no means sets upon it its food
value. and the difference represented be-
tween the price of champagne and ginger
beer, between that of oysters and cookies,
ETC., is the price paid for pleasing the pal
ute. which extravaganza is probably the
penalty of a mental rather than bodily
demand.
But physiologically it is akin to substi-
tuting diamonds fur Goals in the steam
engine. Luxurious foods are, strictly
speaking, creature comforts, while plain
foods are bodily necessities. 1t must he
admitted. however, that. us rule. choice
tasting game and ments are necessarily
tender and therefore easy of assimilation.
But clearly there must be n limit to the
appropriation of food by the body, and
this limit may be reached just as easily
by means of good. plnin and tender food
Us by food of rarer sort.
According to this view. there must be a
grcnt physiological extravaganza going
beverages the same sort OF extravaganza
occurs. Enormous prices are given for
particularly choice wine, but here,
again, it is practically certain that the hui
man economy gains little or nothing by it.
Does the man who drinks clarct of
choice vintage at. say. 10 shillings bot
w uetiNe aus Hhteriai hiNhNtusc over
the man who drinks his shilling bottle OF
vim ordinairc? 1t is doubtful. In any
case, the prices asked for wine at big ho-
tells are so monstrously high and the wine
offered is 50 often bad that this fact
alone accounts for an Increasing demand
for whisky rs a dinner beverage. There
are obviously considerable physiological
sin and wantonness committed in the
choice of food and in the quantity con-
sumed.-Lon,lon Lancet.
