FOOD AND THE SEXES.
The Male Human Needs to Eat More
Than the FemnIe.


According to writer in the Lancet,
the male human needs more food than
the female not only on account Of his
larger stature, but also because he is
the more katabolic of the two. The
man tends to expend energy and the
woman to store it up in the form of
fat; he burns the faster This sexual
difference shows itself in the very
blood. The man has a larger percent
age of chrOmOcytes than the woman,
showing that he needs pFoportionate-
ly larger quantity of oxygen in order
to maintain his more active combus-
ton, fact which one may associate
with his comparative freedom from
chlorosis. Moreover, weight for weight.
his pulmonary capacity is greater than
that of the woman, whose smaller re-
spiratory need is further shown by the
Facility with which she can without
discomfort diminish her breathing
power by means of the corset.
'The great contrast between the
metabOlic activity of the two sexes
continues the writer, twas fOrcjbly
brought home to me by military dis
play given by q troop of dusky anna
IONS, with whom were also few male
warriors. The women, in spite of theil
daily exertions, were all rounded anC
plump, some very much so, no single
muscle showing through the skin, anC
it was noticed that their movements
though full of grace, lacked energ!
and go The men, on the other hand
We're spare, their muscles standing Ou
plainly under the shiny skin, and they
in further contrast with the women
displayed a truly amazing agility
bounding about and whirling round il
a most astounding fashion. The WON
en-, in short, were essentially anabOliC
and the men were katabolic. l ma.
here draw attention to the fact tina
men are apt to be larger meat eater
than women, just as they are, possibl

A good, healthy child will wear

they won't wear out a pair Of our

That's because our Shoes are

again they're so good looking and
comfortable that the boys and
girls will like them and take better
care of them. Because of our
large buying through our two

line of this, also saying Professor Fag-
mani called Adam a myth, which, how
ever, he did not do.

hour shifts and paying SO. When the

HIS LAST HOPE REALIZED.

(From the Sentinel, Gebo, MONTY
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper
was among the many seekers after Cor
tune who made the big race one fine
day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping
upon his claim. he encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
severe heat, gave him very severe
diarrhOea which it seemed almost i'm
possible to check, and along in Tune
the case became so bad he expected TO
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as a last hope. A big dose
was given him while he was rolling
about on the ground in great agony,
and in a few minutes the dose was re-
peated. The good effect of the medi-
cine was soon noticed and within an
hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for a fortnight. That one
little bottle worked a complete cure,
and he cannot help but feel grateful.
