Giants to Come Again.

From Chicago comes the grave an- nouncement that Dr. Shinkishi Hatai. professor of neurology. has discovered in ''lecithin' a new food which, he promises. will make men and animals grow fast and large" The professor has eXperimented on white rats and increased their bulk amazingly He insists that lecithin which is an or sanic. phosphorous- containing sub stance found in eggs. brain matter and the white co-puscles of the blood in- duces q growth that is normal and healthy. and that unlike other stimu- lants. it affects all parts Of inc hody exactly alike.
 We are first impressed with the fact that while this discovery may be an ex- cellent thing for white rats. it is by no means clear that an increase in their size is at all desirable The fewer and smaller they are the better. Similarly it may well be contended that no ap- parent advantage can accrue by mere addition to the size of the normal and average man or animal. The Percheron is very well for his purpose and in his place. but we surely would not have all our horses built on his massive lines If all the men in New York city were of a stature to fit them to be members of the Broadway Squad" the demand for that admirable picked body of po- licemen and their very usefulness would obviously disappear. Frederick the Great tired of his giant soldiers
 The giant and the pigmy are each essential features at the circus; the average man is normal, and under inn proved modern methods of physical cul- ture he is adding to his stature at a sufficiently healthy rate. Moreover, : there seems to turk q special danger in this lecithin. which stimulates all parts of the body exactly alike The man with a big head would be in peril of meeting the fate of the inflated frog: the Chicago girl would find difficulty in getting out of the way of her own feet. On the whole. we are not disposed to wax enthusiastic over the possible bene- fits to be derived from Prof. Batai's $ discovery. Even as applied to white rats we question its value. Applied to the

A Laudable Undertaking.

The Salvation Army has decided to invade those districts of Kentucky which are overridden by feudists The progress of this novel campaign. which already has been inaugurated, will be watched with interest and curiosity The Army could devote it's valuable efforts to no more praiseworthy cause than that of regererating the people of Rreathftt and other mountain counties of Kentucky whose cowardly and bloody deeds have disgraced that state and the nation.
 The mountainous districts of Ken lucky are the Sicily of the United States. The peculiar crimes of their inhabitants are an absurdity in the light of our civilization. Systema tized assassination is not an Anglo Saxon in stitution. It is c hideous and execrated inconSruity in American life. It is the crime of weak, cowardly men without heart or honor and they who brag of it are stained with all the seven abomiaa- tions which the proverbs name to con- demn. What impression the Salvation Army can make upon these rugged. ruff fianly mountaineers remains to be seen. But there is cause for hope in the eff cacy Of it's method of warfare. The as. assins are passionate. emotional. eX- citable. ignorant, illiterate They are capable of great fear, are easily affect cd with panic and fantfcism. and aban- dor themselves wildly to any idea which takes possession of their light headed, unbalanced mentality
 \ The Salvation Army has dcne good work everywhere, but chiefly among benighted people whom the orthodox churches have failed to reach or have given up in despair. So the contem- plated campaign of the Army in the bacllwoods counties of Kentucky may possibly produce unexpectedly good re sults.-Kansas City Journal

Simon Boliver Buckaer.

That sturdy old democrat, General Simon Bolivar Buckner. once governor of Kentucky. retains to the full the courage of conviction and independence of manhood which have given him his greatest fame. In 1896 these estimable qualities not only prevented him from being dragged to Gishonor by the pr nicous Bryan leadership under which his party fell but even induced him to give the services of his name to the bolt ing, sound money, democratic national ticket. And now he has appeared be- fore the republican state convention in Kentucky to declare that while he s still democrat he opposes Governor Beckhdm on his record and believes that the best interests of the state de mand his defeat. His attitude may have considerable influence in the Ken lucky campaign. Surely there must be some democrats in that state who will be willing to follow his manly and pub lic-spiriIed example Anyway, it is an example worthy of all praise. Few men of his generation have his free dom from partisan thraldom.-Provi- dence Journal.

SECRET ABOUT PRETTY GIRLS.
Pretty girls

Pretty girls
 Are not always the most favored by the men
 Turn their attention more readily to men than they do to women.
 Suffer frequently because they are so much a source of gossip.
 Can afford to appear in an attire which is out of the conventional.
 Often are apt to show superior opinion of their own appearance.
 Call men to their sides and send them away as though it were 9 right.
 Resent forcibly being suspected Of possessing a high grade of vanity.
 Occasionally dream of an exalted po- sition they are destined to fill.
 Never forget that the time is sure to come when admiration will go to the other girl
 Do not always love the man who be- slows the most attention on them.
