most part the choice OF food 10
made to please the palate. The
palate is q creature of education.
1t may be taught to crave things
bitter or things sweet; to desire
spicy or fiery condiments which
irritate the stomach or dainties
which distress it, and in which
the food value is reduced to the
minimum. AS a rule the palate is
taught to desire the most unde-
sirab]e things from the view
point of nutrition. The result is
that the stomach has to thresh a
great quantity of straw to obtain
one grain of nutrition.
The body is sustained by food
properly digested and assimlated
and converted into nutrition. But
when the food lacks nutritive
value the body and its organs
must be starved. Exactly the
same thing happens when the
food eaten is nutritious, but the
stomach and other organs of di-
gestion and nutrition being weak
ened by disease, fail to extract
the nutrition from the food pro-
Then the body is starved also.

If one quality of character be more
conspicuous than another in Lord Sal

guilty, the same confidence in return
ing reason among rulers or people
whom for the time, in his opinion, il

PUZZLE FOR POLICE OF CHICAGO
Omcers Unable to Explain Mysterious
Attempt at Murder.


The mysterious shooting of Daniel
Hill, a prominent broker on the Chi
cago board of trade, battles the police.
SO peculiar are the circumstances that
every one who has examined into the
case has a different theory to advance.
Members of the police differ radically
In their ideas regarding the crime.
According to Hills story, he was
awakened by slight noise in his room
and saw a shadowy form advancing
toward his bed.
who are you and what do you
want?" shouted Mr.. Hill. He raised
himself from his pillow and drew his
revolver. Again he challenged the
man. There was no answer.
Crouching low, Mr.. Hill fred. There
was an oath and a bullet crashed into
Mr.. Hills head. He fell back on the
pillow. He raised himself and fred
again. A second bullet struck him,
this time near the nose. Again he fell
back in bed.
Then Mrs. Hill was awakened. She
had not heard a noise until her hus-
band had fired the second shot, she
says. She did not move. she only
crouched low in bed and said not a
word. Mr.. Hill says he fired the first
time in the air. Or at least that is the
statement he told his daughters. He
only wanted to scare them, he said.
Two bullet holes in the wall near the
ceiling carry out this statement. To
the police, however, he says he shot
and shot to kill. The difference in the
statements is explained by the family
that they were and are so excited that

Brooke abrogated rights held by hcc
through inheritance to the privilege
of conducting the slaughter house at
Havana and of the distribution of
meats and the collection of the fixed
charges for meats. The countess
claims these privileges by virtue of a
royal decree from the king of Spain.
The countess declares that the busi-
ness under the privilege was success
full and profitable until 1899. In that
year, she alleges, Gen. Brooke, then
military governor of Cuba, issued or
ders to the effect that the hereditary
privileges connected with the slaugh-
ter of cattle in Havana were termi-
mated.
This order, the plaintiff alleges,
was in direct violation of a section of
the treaty of Paris declaring that co
long as the occupation lasted the
United States should assume and dis.
charge all obligations under interna-
ticnal law for the protection of life
and property.
