THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts on the Same subjec,

"
 We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygienic living, about vegeta- rianism and many other fads along the same line.
 Restaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat. pastry or coffee Is served and the food crank is in his glory, and arguments and theories galore ad- vanced to prove that meat was never in- tended for human stomachs, and almost make us believe that our sturdy ancestors who lived four score years in robust health on roast beef. pork and mutton must have been grossly ignorant of the laws of health.
 Our forefathers had other things to do than formulate theories about the food they ate. warm welcome was extended to any kind from hacon to acorns.
 A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in matters of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly the best.
 As compared with grains and vegeta- bles meat furnishes the most nutriment in highly concentrated form and Is digested and is assimilated more quick ly than vegetables and grains.
 Dr. Julius Remmsor, on this subject. says: Nervous persons, people run down in health and of low vitality. should eat meat and plenty of 1t. If the digestion Is too feeble at first it may be easily cor rected by the regular use or StuartS DyS- pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of these excellent tabls,- taken after dinner will digest several thousand grains of meat eggs or other animal food in three hours, and no matter how weak the stom- ach may be, no trouble will be experi- enced if a regular practice is made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. be- cause they supply the persin and diastase necessary to -rfect digestion. and every form of indigestion will be overcome by their use.
 That large class of people who come under the head of nervous dyspeptics should cat plenty of meat and insure it's proper digestion by the daily use of a safe, harmless digestive medicine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed of the natural digestive principles, pepsin, diastase, fruit acids and salts. which &C., tually perform the work of digestion Cheap cathartic medicines. masquerading under the name of dyspepsia cures are useless for indigestion as they have ab- solutely no effect upon iie actual diges- tion of food.
 Dyspepsia In all its many forms is simp- ly a failure of the stomach to digest food and the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia Is to make daily use at meal time of a preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which Is en- dorsed by the medical profession and known to contain ac.-ve digestive prin- cipies.

RampoIIa Protests.

Rome, January 22.-cardinal Rampolla, papal secretary of state. has written to Mgr. Falconio. papal delegate at Wash ington, complaining of the ingratitude of Judge Taft, governor of the Philip pines. The secretary maintains that, not withstanding the concessions made by the vatican to the American mission which recently visited Rome, the execu- tive of the Philippines refuses summarily to reinstate the Roman Catholics in the lands unjustly seized by the Filipino in- dependent Catholics. In this way, he as serts, the Americans are indirectly fo- menting that schism which is agitatin the islands, and is mainly due to the papal compliance with the requests of the American mission
 In a lengthy report sent to Mgr Fall conio the vatican lawyers hold that the seizure of the church lands was Illegal. because they had been peaceably pcs sessed by the Roman Catholic church from time in.memorial. They deny that the independent Catholics have valid claims.

POEM. WHICH IS A RELIC.

Florence, January 4-(Special.) )-This poem was written on the back of a Con- federate greenback, in the presence or Col. J. F. Steele of Florence, who cannot now recall the authors name. Representing nothing on Gods earth now And naught in the waters below it. As the pledge of a nation that's dead and
 gone,
 Keep it. dear friend. and show it. Show 1t to those who will lend an ear To the tale that this trife can tell Of liberty born of a patriots dream, Of storm cradled nation that fell Too poor to possess the precious ores, And too much of a stranger to borrow, We issued today our promise to pay And hoped to redeem on the morrow. The days rolled by and the weeks became
 years,
 But our coffers were empty still; Coin was so rare that the treasury'd
 quake
 If dollar dropped into the till But the faith that was in us was strong
 indeed,
 And our poverty we'll we discerned; And this little check represented the pay That our suffering veterans earned. We knew 1t had hardly value in gold, Yet as gold each soldier received it; It gazed in our eyes as a promise to pay And each southern patriot believed 1t. But our boys thought little of price or
 pay,
 Or of bils that were overdue; We knew if it brought us our bread today Twas the best our poor country coud
 do.
 Keep it. 1t tells all our history over, From the birth of the dream to the
 last;
 Modest and born of the angel Hope, Like our hopes of success-it passed.
