thOrity of Rome. These had grown very
strong, and Waideck- Rousseau became con-
vinced that they were meddling in politics
with view to overthrowing his govern
ment AS result came the famous law OF
religious associations which puts them all

Again there was great uproar and the as

dorsed Waldeck- Rousseau's course In the
matter by five votes to three.
But the man himself. aside from his de-
termined use Of the Napoleonic machine,
accounts for his victory at the polls and
the present stability of republican govern
ment In France. In most of his official life
he is stiff and unbendfng, and he holds his
friends chiefly by never forgetting them nor
deserving them. But occasionally he can
unbend, and Count Munster, the German
ambassador, was heard to exclaim at a re-
ception: Il wish my imperial master might
know him. His real hold, however, Is not

With the aspirations of organized labor he

The story is told that one day when he

carpenters called upon him who wished to
form an association or guild for mutual

they had no money. There was no public
fund for the purpose but Waldeek-Rous-

We're signed, no witnesses to the act were
called, but the money was returned upon

LIVE ON RAW FOOD.
Chicago Society Says Only in That
Way Can Man Be Well

From the Chicago journal.
Chicago has a society for men and
women who subsst entirely upon un-
cooked food. They consider cooked
diet extremely injurious to health and
morals, and are pledged to discard it
from their tables for all time.
Cooking, they contend, is fad which
originated somewhere in the early
ages of man, and since then humanity,
mentally, morally and physically, has
been steadily on the decline. Fire,
they say, destroys all that is health
giving and life giving in food.
Those who are i'll maintain in that
that the raw food diet will restore
them to health; the healthy assert that
they are proof against disease Fur
thermore, they aver that they enjoy
their meals more than other people,
and that they are able to live on the
very best of the land for less than 20
cents day.
Occasionally the members of the So
ciety meet at a public dinner, when
they have speech making testimonials
of health, singing and other amuse-
ments. Here is n sample of the raw
food menus
Little Neck CLANS on the Half Shell.
RockaWay Oysters.
Raw Tulnips. Raw Carrots
Raw Scotch Oats and Almonds Mixed
Raw Eggs.
Raw Shrimps, with Raw Mustard Salad.
Mclors, Pinearples Grapes. Oranges.
Bananas. Dried Figs. Nuts
Compressed Wheat Cakes.
The society has nearly 100 members,
and several times that many advo-
Gates, in Chicago alone. It's object is
ITO save humanity from the disastrous
effects of taking dead food into the
system"
Not only do these "naturalists" claim
that raw food has unveiled the secret
of longevity and perfect health and
solved the problem of economical liv-
ing, but they say it is the greatest
source of beauty to women.
The officers say that any one who
will give raw food IL trial for 80 days
will be convinced that the Bible ac-
count of Methuselah not only is pos
slble, but probable.
