THINK 1T OVER.

Something You Can See I'm Any Res
taurant or Cafe.
A physician puts the query: Have you
never noticed In any large restaurant at
lunch or dinner time the large number OF
hearty. vigorous. old men at the tables,
men whose ages run from so to so years,
many OF them bald and all perhaps gray,
but none Of them feeble or senile2
Perhaps the spectacle is so common as
to have escaped your observation or com
ment. but nevertheless 1t is a object les
son which means something.
II you will notice what those hearty old
fellows are eating you will observe that
they are not munching bran crackers nor
gingerly picking their way through a menu
card Of new tangled health foods; on the
contrary. they seem to prefer a Juicy roas,
Of beef. a properly turned loin Of mutton,
and even the deadly broiled lobster is not
altogether ignored.
The point Of all this Is that a vigorous
old age depends upon good digestion and
plenty Of wholesome food, and not upon
dieting and an endeavor TO live upon brar
crackers.
There is a certain class OF food cranks
who seem to believe that meat, coffee and
many other good things are rank p~oisons
but these cadaverous. sickly looking indi.
viduals are a walking condemnation o.
their own theories.
The matter in a nutshell Is that II thu

juices in SUFFICIENT quantity. any wholesome
food will be properly digested; IL the stom

could. I couldn't stay in bed long.
Sick as I was, II was easier for me
TO crawl around than to lie and

I got up after q few days, and let

then ten months old, and the girl

Attempt to Commit Suicide.

George w. Panyon, a handy man about
the Her Grand annex, made an unsuccess-
full attempt to commit suicide yesterday
afternoon by taking carbolic acid. Drs.
Peterson and Hahn rendered prompt as
sistance and Panyon escaped with a burned
throat and mouth. The cause for this ao-
ton Is laid to Panyon's unrequited afec-
ton for one of the chambermaids, COM
monty known as Mollie. Friday night Pan
yon Is said to have made an attempt TO
drink the fiery poison in the presence OF his
sweetheart, who prevented him from ac,-

NELSON DEFENDS HIS BILL
Douglas County Representative Stands Up
for His Charter Amendments.
SAYS SALARY CHANGES ARE ALL RIGHT
Holds out No Hope for Relief from
Railroad DominatiOn In the Mat
ter of Assessing Property
for Taxation.

Representative W. T. Nelson, who intro
duced the bill containing proposed amend
mentu to the Omaha charter in the legisla-
ture last week, said last night: II am aware
that the bill has met with criticism In
Omaha, but / believe It is the best measure
that can be framed. l devoted three weeks
to studying the subject, which l found a
dinlcult one to handle. The salary changes
1 believe to be fair, and the fund expan-
sions are ample to cover the needs Of the
departments which they supply.
Some erroneous reports have been cast
about concerning the position the house
committee on cities and towns has taken
on the insertion Of the clause into the new
South Omaha charter which makes II oblig-
atory on the tax commissioner to accept
the return Of the State Board OF Equali-
Eation on railways, This is the Identical
clause that the citizens OF Omaha are now
trying to have stricken out Of their charter.
II was introduced by a member from Dodge
county, and produced a surprise. The ma
jority Of the committee, however, favored
It. There will be a minority report, never
theless, signed by Representative Gilbert,
one other member and myself. refusing to
pass favorably upon the amendment to Sec
tion l, which is the one in point.
No Hope for Relief.
There is no use Disgusting the fact that
affairs In the legislature are being run
pretty much by the railroads to suit them
selves. The fate OF H. r, Ill is sealed
and think it's substitute, H. R. $50, will
meet the same fate. With so many country
members against us it is useless for the
Douglas county delegation to fight against
the odds. The introduction Of H. r. III
was a big mistake, because 1t made the
country members think that Omaha wal
trying to obtain exclusive privileges, and
they regard H. R. $50 NEARLY as sort Of
sop.
"A bill hat looks to me important and

sentative Ellers, which gives the right tc
