DID DIETING FOR OBESITY
CAUSE TOM REEDS DEATH?

Was the death of former Speaker
Thomas B. Reed, who passed away at
the Arlington Hotel not long ago,
induced either directly or indirectly
by a rigorous system of dieting,
which he had been practicing up to
the very day of his dissolution?
This question is being asked serious
ly by some of Mr.. Reeds intimate
friends, and as soon as it is known
that it has been raised will doubtless
spread discussion in medical circles in
this country. Within a few months
preceding his demise the former Speak
er was engaged in an effort to reduce
his weight, and during the period of
his self-denia1 succeeded in decreasing
his weight As pounds. He did this by
leaving the table hungry at every meal,
having eaten only portion of the food

YOUR
OWN SAUSAGE

The breakfast sausage that appears
in tie city markets is coarse article,
and has well earned its reputation for
doubtful ingredients. Even where the
meat is without doubt pork, the poorest
cuts and pieces which would not be
considered fit for any other purpose
are ground into sausage. In the coun-
try it is the ordinary practice to make
sausage meat at home at the time the
pigs are killed, and many people in
the city now make their own sausage
meat when they cannot obtain salts
factory supply from the country. The
convenient meat chopper may be now
purchased at as low price as SLIPS.
A months supply is easily ground by
this machine and packed away in pans
under a layer of melted lard which
hardens over the top, so that it shuts
out the air from the meat A simple
rule for sausage meat calls for seven
and half pounds Of lean pork.
Sometimes for change half lean
pork and half lean veal are used
in the sausage put up at home.
Add also two and a half pounds
OF fat pork, three ounces of salt, half
an ounce of summer savory, powdered,
three-quarters of an ounce of sage
leaves powdered and an ounce Of
ground pepper. Put the meat, with the
fat and lean mixed together, through
a coarse meat chopper. Then add the
seasonings, rubbing them in with the
hands. Finally grind the seasoned
meat as fine as possible. Pack the
sausage in large pans, pouring at least
half an inch of melted fat over it.
When the fat becomes cold and hard
the meat will be air tight. Keep it in
cold place, and as needed uncover a
small portion of the meat, taking out
what is wanted and covering up the
remainder.
The French use the richest sauces
with sausage. A little chopped onion,
in the proportion of a tablespoonful
to every pound of sausage, may be
Drowned in a saucepan and sprinkled

suited a dietlrIan, who advised him
to eat less than he was accustomed
to, and knock off about 20 pounds.
This the former Speaker did by the
method mentioned. Then he continued
the practice, and reduced his weight
25 pounds more. At the time of his
death he was in his sixty-fourth year,
and according to one of the best physi-
clans in Washington dieting is a very
dangerous practice for a man of his
age. This physician said it was quite
probable that Mr.. Reeds last illness
could be attributed TO the fact that his
system had been impaired through the
lack of sufficient nourishment
''It is very easy TO understand how
an insufnciency of food would weaken

The size of atoms, a subject of in
quiry since the time of the ancient
Greeks. is now a matter of great i'm
portance A recent determination by
Mr.. H. V. Ridout, reached by sim
pie geometrical process from dissocia-
ton by electrolysis and through the
aid of known electrical formula, places
the size of the ion-or electrified atom
of hydrogen at about 1855, 900, 900 Of
an inch. The possible errors are
thought to be limited to a few per cent.
Many other physicists have been work
ing on the problem, and it is re
markable fact that Lord Kelvin's latest
result. by another method. is practic-
ally the same as Mr.. Ridout's.

Observations in the Alps, at a time
of rapid alterations of fair weather
and storms, have shown w. Caspari
that the air is strongly electrifed-or
''ionized "-during the clear periods.
and that the presence of positive or
negative ions changes to correspond
with the fair or stormy weather.
Mountain sickness was seen to be
closely connected with the atmospher-
ic electricity, an excess of free ions APP
pearing to act as poison. The Lyss-
joch, which is 1900 feet high at the
edge of a vast ice cleft, has a bad rep
utation for mountain sickness. and
here the dissipation OF electricity is the
greatest ever observed.
