DrAla-Foosi Nonsense.

Another ridiculous fad has been
branded by the NEST competent au-
thorities. They have dispclled the
silly notion that one kind OF food Is
needed for brain. another for muscles,
and still another for bones. A cor
rect diet will not only nourish a par
ticular part OF the body, but 1t will
sustain every other part. Yet, how
ever good your food may be, Its nutri.
ment Is destroyed by indigestion or
dyspepsia. You must prepare for
their appearance or prevent their COM
ing by taking regular doses Of Green's
August Flower, the favorite medicine
OF the healthy millions. A few doses
aids digestion, stimulates liver to
healthy action, puriiies the blood and
makes you feel buoyant and vigorous.

There are many people ready to de-
nouncc American soldiers for every
harsh act committed In the Philip
pines, but these conveniently forget
to mention the acts Of treachery that
have been committed by the lawless
element among the natives,
says the Boise Statesman. 1t Is prob
APPLE that In three-fourths OF the cases
OF cruelty practiced 10y Americans,
those responsible have been goaded by
barharous acts Of this lawlcss element
among the native people.

"You psychological progeny OF

The stage drew up before the Empire
hotel. Five minutes later Whacker
BIZ stumbled up to the bar and asked
huskily for his usual drink.
MAKE 1t two, Jimmy, make 1t two,
and make 'em stiff."
And he drank them slowly, staring
modify across the rim OF his glass at
the circle Of men who wondered II Bill
had ''tech" of malaria.
That night after Rollins had conduct
ed evening service In the chapel and
had baptized two babies he returned to
the Empire hotel to find Whacker Bin
waiting for him. They went to his
room In silence, and the bad man Of
Las Vegas valley laid motley array
Of trophies on the missionary's table.

Rollins looked at the bad man In well
assumed amazement.
"Why are you bringing them to meT'

They shook hands on the deal, and
Whacker Bill went down for another
drink. The Rev. John Rollins had q
letter to write. It was addressed to q
struggling young lawyer in an eastern
city. and 1t wound up as follows:

The democrats are fishing for issues
with drag-net, and they bring to the
surface wonderful variety Of objects
that are Shiny and elusive. Their
latest haul is the ''h!gh price OF meat, /"
due to the wicked practice Of "meat
trust" This tissue" came first to the
net of the New York Herald, and was
exploited merely as sensation. Dem
ocratic politicians jumped at it and it
Is the democratic issue Of the hour.
Representative Richardson has intro
duced q resolution" instrncting the
ways and means committee To ''inves-
tigate" the subject. evidently having
In mind the removal Of duties on live
stock. As matter OF fact there is no
''mcat trust" There are large
number Of very heavy concerns in the
meat trade, but there is no evidence
or any reason to suppose that they
are acting together for any common
purpose. They are none too good to
do so. They would combine In a
minute II there was anything to be
gained by 1t, but, being very able men,
they know tine imp0ssibility OF corner
ing the supply Of any stable article Of
food. The great packing houses con-
troll the wholesale meat trade because
the can deliver beef to retailers cheap
or than retailers can slaughter for
themselves. Nothing prevents any
retailer from buying and Strengthening,

By this method those who neglect
one Of the duties Of citizenship Will be
compelled to perform the other. The
law seems cminently proper. Every
citizen should take an active interest
in his government, local, state and
national. The man who does not vote
has no right to complain when officials
Of doubtful character are elected. The
man who eyades jury. duty gets only
his just deserts when his own case Is
tried by an aggregation Of blockheads.

meats, accompanied by protests from
oil sections OF the country, greeted as
Il has been by denunciation from
all quarters, Is largely due to the ar
rested development OF the final move
mcnt in the processes OF production
and distribution. In the progress OF
this movement articles OF c0nsump-
ton proceed from the point OF manu-
factuye TO the principal distributive
conters, says the ST. Paul Dispatch.
In the decades following the Civil
War the aim OF every manufactures
has been to reduce the cost OF produc-
zion. TO this end he has not hesi-
tated to adopt the latest methods OF
cheapening production. lie has not
hesltated to discard machinery when
later inventions have made cheaper
production possible. Never before In
tho history Of the world have articles
In the hands Of the maker been pro-
duced ut SO low cost. This tenden-
cy was followed In the methods Of as
sembling manufactured articles at
distributlye centers by means OF the
great railway lines Of the country.
The country has witnessed the same
reduction In the cost Of transporta-
tion that IL has In the cost Of prOduc-
ton. The average rate that 10 years
ago was about three cents tOn-mile

When We come To the last step In
this process Of distribution, the trans
fer of articles from the dealer to the
consumer, we find halt In the reduc-
tion Of cost. In the matter OF meat
supply We lind the same methods that
have prevailed for a century. There
IL an excessive expenditure OF energy
out of proportion to the work accom-
plished. Edward Atkinson, the stat
isticlan, some years since stated that
It cost N much to get the loaf Of
bread from Boston bakeries to the
consumers kitchen as II did to grow
the wheat In Dakota, mill 1t, trans
port the -four to Boston and convert 1t
into bread. No figures are accessib bic
which will give the cost Of distribu-
tiOn Of meat In city like st. Paul
from the block To the consumer, but
when we consider the number Of men
engaged In this business, the expense
Of maintaining and operating their es-
tablishments, the absolute necessity
Of a margin Of profit which will meet
this and give them II livelihood, 1t Is a
fair presumption that Atktnson's
statement In regard to bread Is equal
~ true Of meat. The same condition
prevails In ALMOST all lines Of retail
distribution. The excessive cost OF
this must be borne by the consumer.
The only modification that has been
accomplished Is In the case Ut the de-
partment stores, where many lines Of
products are assembled and distribut-
Cd under conditions promOtive of
economy and resultant In diminished
price. This indicates that however
slow the process may be 1t Is moving
on In Tvs inevitable career and, sooner
or later, will bring to the final distrib-
uti0n the economies Of and benefit to
the public already secured In the pre-
ceding processes of production aud
distribution.

Judge Blair Holds Taxidermist Can
Shoot QuaiIs Out of Season.
Special to Times Republican.
Waterloo, April 10.--In district court
yesterday Judge Blair decided that any
man who is taxidermist has right to
shoot and kill birds in season or out,
under the present game laws of the
state. The decision was brought out in
the case of the state VS.. Harry Fields
recently appealed to the district court
from Justice Hildebrand. 1t will be re-
membered that young Fields was ar
rested for shooting and killing six
quails on January %. He took change
of venue from Justice kern's court to
Justice Hildebrand. There he was
found guilty and appealed to the dis
trict court. He claimed that he was a
taxidern1ist and had shot the birds in
order to secure specimens for the State
Normal school. Justice Hildebrand
held that did not excuse him and a fine
of 500 was attached. An appeal fol-
lowed to the district court with the
above result. County Attorney Reed
says the case will be taken to the SUI
preme court. 1t is declared by sports
men that the decision of Judge Blair is
a matter of great surprise. They say
II it holds good it practically makes it
possible, for any one to violate the game
laws with impunity.
