YEARS AGO BY INVESTING IN GROUND IN
OLD COLUMBIA HEIGHTS AND MOUNT

Pudding mt beginning of Dinner.

The custom of serving pudding as the
first course at dinner seems to have in
terested Il good many people Of our
day. A gentleman from Maine in

tom in certain sections of his state. In
the autobiography of the Adams fami-
ly it is mentioned that at dinner Civ
en- by the venerable eX-president Of the
United States. at which his grand
children We're present, the first course
was Indian pudding, and the little
folks were told that the more pudding
they ate the more beef they could
have. SO of course they gOrged them
selves on the pudding, and as a con-
sequence they had no appetite for beef
when it was served. Thus were main
tanned the simple and economical meth.
DDS of the forefathcrs. The boys who
came to the city from the country and
later became the successful and
wealthy merchants of Boston were rails

breakfast the year round was of brown
bread and milk and the same for their
supper. The dinner was of baked
beans and pie, rarely any meat.-Bos-

A picturesque Statesman.

The Ell Dorado Republican gives pic
ture of an early statesman and his pic
turesque attire: When the Hon. David
L. McCabe was elected to the legiSla-
ture from Butler county in 1860 and
went to Topeka TO be sworn in he as
tonished not only the natives, but ev-
erybody else, as he was the most gor-
geously dressed statesman that Kansas
had ever produced. He was very dark
with long black hair. On his head was
co2nskin cap. the tail Of the coOnskin
ham,. gracefully down his back. His
coat was made Of wolfSkins nicely tan
ned and lined with red flannel. Six
handsome tails hung from his coat tails
and tapped in the breeze as he mean
dered up TO the speakers desk to take
the oath. He wore a spotted doeskln
vest. buckskin knee breeches, hand
somely fringed; top boots, gloves made
of beaver skin. watch chain done in
beadwork, q flannel shirt with fam
ing red bandanna pocket handkerchief
around his neck. and it is needless to
say he created Il sensation.

Rrain-Food Nonsense.

Another redi-1lus food tad has
been branded by the most compe-

PEELED the silly notion that one
kind of food Is needed for brain,
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, It's nutri-
ment Is destroyed by indigestion or
dyspepsia. You must prepare for
their appearance or prevent their
comming by taking regular doses of

Smeot, Mormon Republican.

Reed Smoot, the republican ''apos-
tie" Of the hideous Mormon church,
has arrived at Washington, and an
nounces his intention of taking a seat
as a member of the United States
senate II an extra session is called by
President Roosevelt after March a.
he makes this declaration, Of course,
because he has been elected to the
senatorship as the republican candi-
date Of his state. IT am here" he
says, las the choice of the citizens of
my state" This statement is true
enough; he is the choice of the citizens
OF his state-Utah, whose citizens are
Mormons, of whom the man of the I'M
couth name Is one of the highest Of
ficials. So the senate will have to &C.
cept the euphonistic Smoot and his
Mahometan.like religion. There is
no help for it. But then we must re-
member that this man, though hardly
old enough to remember the Mountain
Meadow massacre, is of the wicked
sect that perpetrated that fearful
crime against God and humanity; and
We must also remember that he is a
republican.-Buffalo Express.

The China Times relates an ex
traordinary case of Chinese Justice"
A Mr.. Jen was betrothed last year to
Miss Han, and paid his money to
the lady's parents. A month ago he
called on the parents to have the
contract fulfilled and was told that
the promised one was the bride of
another. Having paid the money he
considered he was entitled to the
girl, and went to her husbands
house to carry her off, but she was
not at home. He then laid his case
before the magistrate. The girl was
arrested and sentenced to be "kua.
ed" the magistrate arguing: eff
you are SO wicked at 20 years of age,
at the age of 80 you will be menace
to the Celestial empire" The proc
ess of kua-ing is very similar to the
ling-chih, or slicing-to-death punish
ment.

mighty serious business even in these
days of prosperity. Uncle Russell
Sage, who, according to the inside in
formation possessed by Roswell
Field, of the Chicago Post, does not
scruple to pay IS cents for lunch
con when he is real hungry, dropped
in on the boys the other day, and
dropped out again as if he had been
shot out of cannon. Uncle Russell
believes that business principles
should be encouraged in the young,
but he shares the opinion with US
that the time to get violets is when
we can stroll blithely into the merry
meads, amid the carol of birds anil
the rejoicing of nature, and pick
them.
