Moral Effect of Diets.

An exclusively pork diet tends in
falhbly to pessimism. Beef, if per-
severed in for months, makes man
strong, energetic and audacious,
says Parsons Weekly. A mutton
diet continued for any length of
time tends to melancholia, while
veal eaters gradually lose energy
and gayety. The free use of eggs
and milk tends to make women
healthy and vivacious. Butter used
in excess renders its users phleg-
matte and lazy. Apples are excel
lent for brain workers, and every
body who has much intellectual
work to do should eat them freely.
Potatoes, on the contrary, render
one dull, inyidious and lazy when
eaten constantly and in excess. To
preserve the memory even to an ad-
vanced age nothing is better than
mustard.

Ancient Foot COVERINGS.

If we are to judge Of the foot COW
erings handed down to us as relics
from the courts Of France, Spain,
England and Germany, we can but
conclude that for an extremely long
period Of time, probably eight OF
ten CENTURIES, the dressing of the
human foot has been, even In the SO
called civilized countries, but slight
" different and only in degree from
the customs Of the followers Of Con-
fucius for thousands Of years.
Fortunately for art, unfortunate
ly for the history of civilization, SO
called, the artist of olden as well as
modern times has not copied except
in portraiture the cramped foot, the
narrow toe, the elevated heel and
the pinched instep, which have long
accompanied the human foot 1t
seems reasonable to suppose, now
ever, that the Roman artist and
critic and the Grecian as well fully
attempted to give us the perfect
foot as found in the well developed
Grecian woman of the day.
The sandals worn at the time
when Rome was in her splendor
were undoubtedly SO constructed
as to afford ample opportunity for
the development Of the foot and
exhibit the beauty of its conforma-
ton.

Pure Food Laws Euforcaa


The St. Louis papers report sever
al more grocers brought to trial up-
on the charge of selling baking
powder containing alum ia violation
OF the law. The parties were all
convicted and each fined 800.
Several baking powders which
have been found By analysis to con-
tain alum have been offered in this
market. They are called BENGAL.
I. c., GROWN, CALUMET.
and CHAPMAN'S.
In many places similar powders,
under these or other names. are
offered for sale at from ten to TWEEN
ty cents pound.
Good baking powder is one of the
most useful things in the kitchen.
There are several good powders on
the market; housekeepers will help
the authorities in their efforts to
promote the sale of pure and health
full food, if when buying baking
powder they will insist upon having
some one of the well known brands
OF cream Of tartar powders, which
are pure and healthful beyond a
doubt.

Great Men Who Danced.

The ancients regarded dancing as
necessary accomplishment. Soc
rates learned the art in his old age,
while Plato in his commonwealth
advocated the establishment OF
dancing schools. The Romans cele.
brated their victories and pastoral
festivals by elaborate dances. They
excelled in pantomime dances, from
which the ballet was evolved. The
Emperor Domitian forbade the SEN
ators to dance and for SO doing re-
moved several members from thu
senate. Grave statesmen and poll
ticians Of high degree have excelled
in the oldest of the arts.

For a Naval School

The Superior Telegram saws.
Congressman jenkins has been com
municated with in regard to the To-
cation of the naval training school on
Minnesota point. 1t is understood
that the. congressman stands ready
to do all in his power for the ad-
vancement of the interests of the
head OF the lakes in the matter, and
he and Congressman Page Morris Ct
Duiath will have a conference upon
ways and means Of pushing the pro-
jet.
Cons gresham Jenkins has been in
formed that Superior is perfectly
willing that Minnesota Point be Sc
lected as the proper location for tDe
school tits figured that there IS
nosopportunify OF either city getting
the prize without the aid aud co
operation of the other aad it IS be-
LEVIED that Minnesota Point offers q
site that will he of mutual advantage
to the two cities. OF course this
willsmean that the. sch ,ol be loca ted
in Minnesota and from this fact Du-
luth will reap certain prestige b t
on the other hand most of Minnesota
Point is nearer to Superior than it
is to Duluth and consequently it is
not improbable that as much of the
money from the school would flow
to this side OF the bay as the other.
With both Congressman Jenkins
and Judge Morris interested in the
proposition and the local clubs push
ing the matter and citizens doing
what they can To Stir up members OF
congress from this and other states,
it is believed the head of the lakes
will stand an excellent chance of
getting what thew are after.

sulnhur In the Mineral Kingdom.

Sulphur occurs very widely dis
tributed IN the mineral kingdom,
partly free and partly combined
with other elements. The free sui
phur is either found pure in regu-
larly formed crystals or intimately
mixed with earthly matters. In its
native state sulphur is largely found
in Sicily and Italy and as a general
rule in abundance in volcanic dis
tTicts. The brittleness of sulphur
renders the cleavage imperfect. Sui

THREEF0LD LIGHTNING.
ku Ancient Belief Coupled With Mod
ern Scientific DEGREES.

ern Scientific DEGREES.
The Etruscans of old believed in
three kinds Of lightning-one inca
pable of doing any injury, another
more mischieyous in its character
and consequently only to be issued
with the consent Of a quorum Of
twelve gods, and a third carrying
mischief in it's train and for which
a regular decree was required from
the highest divinities in the Etrus-
can skies. Curiously enough, mod
ern scientists, following the lead
taken BY Arago, have also decreed
that the varieties Of lightning are
threefold. The first comprehends
that in which the discharge appears
like a long luminous line, bent into
angles and zigzags and varying in
complexion from white to blue, pur-
pie or red. This kind is known as
forked lightning, because it some
times divides into two or more
branches before reaching the earth.
|. The second differs from the first
in the range of surface over which
the flash is diffused. From this cir
cumstance the discharge is desig-
mated sheet lightning, and if any
real parallel can be instituted be-
tween the Etruscan and modern va
rieties this may be said to CORE
spend with the innocuous lightning
which any single god of Etruria
could launch at his pleasure.
The third class are not only re-
markable for their eccentricities,
but they have been made the sub
ject Of considerable contention
They differ SO widely from the more
ordinary manifestations that many
naeteorologists have denied their
right to be treated as legitimate
lightnings. They neither assume
the form Of long lines on the one
hand nor of sheets Of flames on the
other, but exhibit themselves as.
balls or slobular Jumps Of fire..

Queer inventions.

In 1854 patent was granted in
France on a combination opera hat
and bandbox, and during the same
year mouth glue was invented for
artistic purposes, such as sticking
on photographs, negatives and for
use on envelopes and postage
stamps. The ingredients of the
gum were cows heel for adhesive
ness and extract Of vanilla, by
which to avoid ofense to the taste.

PROHIBITION IN MAINE.

Why do the people like Sheriff Pear
son OF Cumberland county? Because he
does his duty is fearless, inCorruptible
and draws but one salary. Why does
the talk that prohibition doesn't prohi-
bit stink into the back alleys when
Pearson comes around? Because he has
shown in Cumberland county that pro-
hibtiOn does prohibit and because he
has shown that a conscientious, faith
full sheriff may repeat in every Maine
county the efficient collapse Of MUS
ance. Granted that Pearson is not
uniformly judiciOus in his speeches, the
people like him because he cannot be
bribed, because he stands for his oath
Of office and for executing the mandate
of the people. A man in whom the pu-
bic have confidence could unquestiOn-
ably be elected to enforce all laws in
every county in Maine. We have had
enough of anarchy i'm this country and
notification always plants the seeds OF
anarchy The result of enforcement in
Cumberland county is that the rum
business is no longer the most profit
able business in Portland as it seems
to be in Lewiston today. But the dry
goods the clothing, the grocery, and
other business in Portland are prosper
Gus as they could not possibly be when
money is wasted on drink $4,000 a
month more than today.-Lewiston

A statistical bulletin of the lobster
fishery of the United States in 1900 has
been issued by the United States COM
mission of FISH and fisheries. There
We're 434S lobstermen engaged in the
fishery in the United States last year,
and their catch was 10, I67, TAI pounds,
valued at 81 39O,579 Maine has more
than half the fishermen, and 10, 346, $50
pounds of lobster are credited to them.
Massachusetts ranks second in the
number of fishermen and the catch. OF
the sos fishermen and 10 landsmen who
live in this state, 81 fishermen were
from Plymouth, Barnstable Nantucket,
Dukes and Bristol counties From this
county 80 lObstermen are included in
the list, whose catch was 69,l62 pounds.
Those of Plymouth county, l6l in num-
Der, caught 765, 291 pounds; while 100
Barnstable men caught llO,315 pounds;
IA Nantucket fishermen got 1890
pounds The total catch of Massachu-
setts lObstermen was 1905, O42, the value
being given as $l7l,825.
A table of the yield and value of the
fishery in former years shows fall
ing off in this state, for during the sos,
the amount of Holsters caught along
the shores of this state was about A.
OOO. 900 a year. In 1897 it dropped to p
OOO, 900, and in 1898 to 1888, TAI. In
Maine the catch in 1900 was a slight in
crease over that in the two or three
years previous, but is about one hall
that of 1887, 1888 and 1899 The New
England states, excepting Vermont
New York New Jersey and Delaware
are the only states where the lobster
fishery is carried on.

LIKES TO Be A bad NIGGA, "
Up against Something Different, With tho
tho Pen Close Behind H.

The man In all Hutchinson who
seems to have considered himself best
able TO stand the luxury OF frequent
arrests and rapid fire fines, Is Parker
Hatch, the gentleman Of color, lie
has been arrested so often and seems
TO be guilty Of so many oienses that
each time m officer approaches he
wonders which charge Will be laid
next. lie has become so familiar
with the interior Of the jail that he
seems to look upon II as Il sort OF
happy home he is 10th to leave. But
If the contentious Of the officers
prove true Parker Is up against pro-
position Of u little more dolcful and
sombre complexion than any he has
before faced and IL may land him In
the penltentiay.
The charge on which Parker Is now
under arrest Is the one peculiar to his
race, that Of possessing too great an
lnfatuatlon for fowls to comport well
with his ability to secure them
through lawful means, The particular
and specific charge is that about two
months ago or thereabouls, In the
wee small hours Of the night, he drove
his buckSkln bronch0 with his attach
ments up TO the poultry yard OF the
Parker Creamery Company, broke In
and procured six large sacks of the
birds he did then and there carry
away in his wagon. The suspicious
Of the creamery people were then
aroused and they Immediately had Il
warrant sworn out for his arrest but
Parker was Elusive. He was there
but he was never here, At least that
is the way the officers found 1t when
they commenced looking for him.
Constable Shirk made q trip to Sylvia
where the garrulous negro was said at
that time TO abide, But by the time
the officer arrived he abode not there,
Then it was learned that he had
migrated as far west as Great Bend
and the city marshal was notified to
arrest him which he did. Constable
Shirk went after him Thursday and
brought him here for trial.
The charge that Is now laid against
him Is that Of grand larceny and a
burglary charge may be placed against
him also. If he should be convicted
and sent to the penitentiary 1t will
be a hard thing on the newspaper fra
ternity who rely on Parker to furnish
them with something to write about
when other news is scarce,
