plying. "Mr. President, / am only here
to invite you to attend the national
convention OF American manufacturers
which meets at Indiana polls i'm the
coming May" and no further reference

as well as at his mothers knee, so that
he has no college "reminiscences to ham,
per him, and began life without having
to undo anything learned at a uniyer-

His active career began in a dry
goods store at $40 per month. out of
which he regularly paid his board and
hoarded the remainder until able TO go
into the hardware business for himself.
This he did in 1875, after marrying the
lady OF his choice, the ceremony being
performed by the Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher. The next year Mr.. Parry sold
out his business and handed the pro-
ceeds To his father to pay Off a mort
gage on the old home farm, starting out
afresh as agent for another firm. Two
years later he had saved money enough
to buy out hardware firm i'm Rush

KID PARKER, BOXER.
Trains Without Meat, Having Become
Vegetarian.

Kid Parker, the clever fighter. has the
distinction OF being the only fighter OF
note In the ring today who eschews the
eating of meat. After careful study ana
close observation he has arrived at the
conclusion that the proper diet Is that
which the earth affords us-fruit. ce-
reals and vegetables. This is according
to the "Pittsburg Dispatch" Since he
changed his menu Parker has engaged
in one ring contest. and, although
beaten. he attributed his adversely in
no way to this Parker talks interest
ingly of his new mode OF living.
For fighters who are nervous or
who are inclined to take on flesh /
would advise them most urgently to
cease eating flesh in any shape. Meat
makes fat. and when the average fighter
is in training he eats lots of it. To
keep down his weight naturally he must
do a pile of work, which is wearing
on the human system. Since | have
been eating fruit AMI cereals | find II
very easy to 90 130 pounds. and feel
Just as strong now as | ever did in my
life When | was eating meat | was ir-
ritable and nervous while training, but
now this feeling has all passed away
and my change of diet has done it.
TT is a mistaken idea to think that
meat eaters are stronger than vegeta-
rians You can go into Africa and ind
tribes of people who have never tasted
meat and they will endure twice as
much hardship as the white people. and
when IL comes to athletic sports, like
running OF jumping. they are amazingly
faster. Because people smile when !!

Giet as the correct one has not shaken
my belief in its value a particle. The
people smiled when Marconi invented
lis wireless telegraph. and they smiled
when Robert Fulton built his first
steamboat, and they have smiled at
other things which have afterward prov
ed a blessing TO, the world. Smile as
they may. | an convinced that ! am
