A THEORY.
Chew Everything, SwalIow Little and
the Man VIII Ee Well Fed.

Ainslec's Magazine: THE stomach is
n most willing servant. 1t really loves
its master, and frequently performs such
labors as none but a slave would endure.
Horace Fletcher has recently evolved a
theory, founded upon thousands Of exper-
iments, which maintains that of the nee
cssary requirements the matter OF chew
Ing will alone suffice. According to him
man has been given the sense Of taste to
guide him In his eating, and to maintain
a just relationship between his food and
his stomach. So long as there is any
taste, he says, the food should remain In
the mouth. chat which remains when
there is no longer any taste should be re-
jected as unfit, BY this method the taste
Is satisfied when the necessary amount
Of food has been sent to the stomach,
and thereforeht Is impossible to overcrowd
the stomach. BY this method also only
that portion OF food which is nourishing
gets past the taste into the system. And
the taste being once thoroughly satisfied
does not call for more until the proper
time. This unconsciously regulates the
hours of meals. As 1t is now food is or
dinarily rushed into the oma half
chewed, waste and all, filling il with rub
bish until It Is overloaded, before the
taste Is satisfied. Then the Woodworking
stomach finds that It has twice as much
IdDOI DeIOTe IL as III WOuld nave III the
food had been properly chewed, besides
having so much waste material that II
will get but half the nourishment neces-
sary for the system. In so far Mr., Fletch-
er's theory is absolutely incontrUVertiblo.
He further maintains thai even food
which contains poisons and Injurious sub
stances, If chewed until 1t disappears In
voluntarily without a conscious act of
swallowing, IS rendered harmless. and IF
II contains anything pleasing to the
taste, becomes to some degree good food.
There is no doubt that the entire theory
OF Mr.. Fletcher could be substantiated
were the taste of man normal. But It has
been proved that mans taste Is not nor
NAL. There has been a gradual extinc-
ton of instinct progressing among the
civilized branches of the human race. In
stinct Is the means by which animals are
warned Of danger. Most of the wilde
kinds know what to eat and what to
avoid. The Indian is only a little less
protected by his instincts. But civilized
man has cultivated perverse and unnat-
ural protective instincts can no longer be
trusted. Even saVages led to adopt the
habits of civilization degenerate, and this
Is probably one OF the causes Of their eX-
tinction."

Too Poor TO Ea, Reefste.k.

Washington Times: Representative Sui
ger went down into the house restaurant
the other day rather undecided as to what
he should order for his lunch. He sat
down at a table, picked up a menu card
and glanced over 1t. looked on the back
cover and then threw 1t down, much as q
man would do whose appetite was on a
strike and who was endeavoring to de-
wise some plan of arbitration.
II reall don't exactly know what / do

the cclored individual who stood at the

Quious garcon.

Burning Head.

Star City, Ark, May 26th.-A yer,
remarkable cas- has just occurred here.
Mr.. w. III. Metals has been suffer
Ing severely for two years with an all
ment that puzzled the doctors and
everybody. The trouble seemed to be
all In his head, which had a burning
sensation all the time.
Sometimes this burning pain in the
head would be worse than at other
times, but 1t never left him.
At last he tried a new remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and was agree
ably surprised to find that the burning
gradually disappeared.
An attack of La Grippe has laid him
up for the last few weeks, but Dodd's
Kidney Pills have banished his old
trouble entirely.
His son George used a few Of the
Pills which his father did not need,
and they have done him so much good
that he says he would not take ten
cents q pill for the few he still has left.
