hydrochloric acids; besides many other
acids peculiar to vegetables.
The question is whether these same
elements in their different form in the
vegetables will sufficiently sustain life
in the same manner as those obtained
from the animal foods, and whether
there is any practical difference be-
tween them for the purpose of nutrt-
tlon. Some argue IN favor Of the meat
because it presents elements of nutri-
ton IN form more concentrated, so
that less bulk is required to be eaten
to get the same amount of nutritlve
value. that meat is more easily di-
gested and the cooking does not play
such an important part in its digesti-
bility as with vegetable foods. Also,
that diet of meat leaves less waste
in the system.
The comparison between these two
classes OF foods may be stated gener-
ally-Yegetable foods must be eaten in
larger volume and must be better
cooked than animal food. and they re-
qulre longer time for digestion, and
although the vital action may be well
sustained by both kinds of food the
vegetable excites the vital process more
SLOWLY and to a less degree.
Adding eggs, milk, cream, butter,
cneese and nuts to the vegetable list we
have the more easily digested nitrogen
GUS elements, similar to those in meats.
but without the stimulating influence
or liability to disease.
From generally economical reasons, If
no other, it is well to consider the ques-
ton Of a new diet, which will answer
all needs and minister to our comfort
with equal, if not more satisfactory re-
suits than the immoderate indulgence
in animal flesh.
TOMATO PILAU
Put one and one-half pounds Of ripe
tomatoes through a sieve to extract
their juice; strain this through a fine
sieve and put it into a saucepan with
an equal quantity Of vegetable broth or
stock Peel and chop fine two medium
sized onions and fry them brown in two
tablespoonfuls of butter. Skim out the
onions and put them in with the toma-
to juice, add a pinch of salt and place
the saucepan over the fire. When the
liquor comes to boiling point put in a
pound of well washed rice, and allow to
simmer gently until all the liquor is
absorbed. Melt and slightly brown a
half cup of butter, including that used
to fry onions, and add to the rice; cover
the saucepan and let it stand where it
will not boil for twenty minutes longer.

Road Building with Prison Labor.

Californians actively interested IL
the subject Of constructing good roads
have al object lessen in the work done
il Bro0me County, N. Y, which they
might do well to initiate for the bene
fit of the roadways in this State. The
methods used were explained TO the
Buffalo Good Roads Congress by Franz
w. Legion. of Binghamton, N. Y, the
co anty-seat of Broome County. The
great desideratum in the construction
Of better roadways was determined t
be the best method of getting the work
done at a minimum cost, and they
solved it by taking advantage of a law
on the statute books of New York
authorizing the employment of prison
ers in the county jail. Under favorable
resolutions of the county and city au
thorities, they began by setting the
prisoners at work breaking stones by
hand for material. As this worked to
poor advantage, the goodroads league
purchased crushing machinery--ope
rating 1t with the prison labor, which
gets out the stone, brushes it, and turns
1t over to employed laborers, who con
struct the road.--San Francisco Argo

MARK TWAIN AND HIS "ENoINE"
Unique Method nf Propulsion on the
Mississippi River.

Mississippi River.
Captain Thomas Bixby, under whom
Samuel i. Clemens-Mark Twain
served as pilot and engineer on the
old Mississippi river boat Swallow,
has given in New Orleans paper the
following description Of the engine OF
the Swallow:
THE craft was a little, shaky af-
fair, which piled between St Louis
and Cairo. It had a stern wheel, a
place for freight and passengers, a
pilot house and a place on what may
be called the pilot deck for the en-
CINE.
That engine went aboard when il
was needed, and only then. 1t burned
no wood or coal, but ate a powerful
sight Of grass. 1t was a large gray
mule named Jerry which worked d
treadmill that propelled the boat.
Samuel Clemens was chief engineer
and pilot.
He had system of signals which
was effective and ingenious. By pull
ing a cord he could raise a head Of
cabbage just out of reach of the mule
The engine would start and begin
to walk after it, and the boat floated
majestically down or up the river, as
the case might be.
Without desiring to be personal
will say that Jerry was one of the
most Intelligent animals l ever met
His voice was more on the order Of a
fog horn than a whistle, being too
much Of a barytone for the latter.
When Samuel wanted to whistle for
landing he just hit Jerry with a stick
