Dietetics in Fever.

I'VE make much better progress at
the bedside of the fever patient by keep
ing before the eye. as the only object
worth striving for, the warding of
of inanition, than we should by a ran
dom search after dishes that will do
the patient good guided by unclear
and ungrounded prejudice" says Prof.
Carl Won Noorden In the International
Monthly. "The condition of the diges-
tive organs may in special cases, as in
typhoid fever, lay US under certain
restrictions, but otherwise every va
riety Of food must, in fever cases, be
looked upon as useful and welcome, II
thereby we can reach the goal of the
fever dietetics, and prevent inanition
and the initial loss of fat and protop-
lasm. With some fever patients, we get
along better, and do them more good
with pea soup. sauerkraut and roast
pork than with the finest calves-foot
jelly and the tenderest breast of chick
en-. The old dogmatists In dietetics,
whose footing was rather natural phil
osophy than the facts Of the pathology
of metabolism, would have been hor-
rificd II they could have known what
a vast variety of dishes we allow our
fever patients nowadays"

Public writers and speakers who

certain periods as boy catches the

city.
"It is strenuous now. For the last
few words the prime favorite has been
passing If man died a headline to
his death notice was like this:
The Passing of Hoodle Foodle.' "
"The passing of the old century was

the son, who had been on the right side
Of the market often enough to make
himself comfortable.
"Me an Jim started In fur to cor

paper tellin' how the thing was done,
an read 1t to Jim. Jim was the all
iredest excited man you ever saw,
and calculated that there wasn't nuth-
in anybody else could do that me an
him couldn't do. So we slips round
an bought in all the corn in the coun-
ty, payin' an average of IS cents a
bushel. We only give out cash where
we had to and the rest got our j'int
notes. 1t Jest bout filled up Jtm's

he has helped about 5000 youths in

year these report to him.
The success Of Mr.. Willard's re-
markable work is proven by the fact
that out of the hundreds of boys who
have been placed in his charge only
10 have failed to realize his expecta-
tions. Had he not saved them from
