carry the unfortunate man to the city

Food.

Food is fast becoming necessity in
our complex life.
How many stop to think that food
is no unimportant part of the meals
which medicine is taken after?
Food has done much to give us neu-
rosis and what would church work be
without neurotic women, or politics
without neurotic men?
But for food. it would probably be
so difficult to diet that many would
seek some other way of beguiling
general health.
Moreover. the state Of the market
is sometimes such that IL Is more
profitable to make up the waste pro-
ducts of manufacturing into food than
into buttons or car wheels.

Our contemporary declares that
from the point of view of national
usefulness not party service-Judge
George Gray, OF Delaware. seems to
be second on the list" We fully con
cur in the statement that Judge Gray
''has served both the Democratic and

Judge 1t is a fact that in the Senate
he was mainstay to the second
Cleveland Administration, and a val
ned counselor of President McKin-
ley. Yet these two facts, which were
regarded by men of both parties as
proofs of Judge Gray's high chaae-
ter and splendid ability, are cited by
some Of the Bryanites as reasons why
he should not be nominated. In other
words, ms very strength Is, TO their
minds, an element of weakness
Strange inconsistency
Judge Gray is not a candidate IN
the sense Of seeking the Democratic
nomination. If the Bryan element
dominates the convention he will moi
be the party standard bearer. But
whether nominated or eliminated,
there Is no rubbing out the fact that
he is, from every point Of view, one
OF the foremost men IN the Republic.

BiundeTs of the Educated.
The Evening Post" Contrasts the Mis-

The New York Evening Post adj
vances an argument which will be
balm to the feelings of its illiterate
readers-if it has any. After quot
ing several examples of laughable
blunders made by the illiterate. il goes
on to quote examples of mixed meta
pbors and other absurd mistakes
made by educated persons who even
pose as critics. These quotations, il
Is fair TO say, are not taken from the
Post" itself That would be too much
Ia expect. They resemble the famous
mixed metaphor of that orator who
exclaimed that he smelled a rat and
saw him floating in the air, and would
now proceed to nip him in the bud.
There Is a point, however, winch
might have been made in this article,
which was not made. Ii is that the
blunders of illiterate people in this
country, their lack Of ability to spell.
and so on. are often directly cue to
the incompetency Of school boards ard
teachers supposed to be educated.
When, for example, the school board

physical geography, and modern Ian

usually IT Is not an illiterate person.

certain amount of truth in this Some
Americans do work mreasonably

nevertheless true that no country can

things Germany gets in the way of

seem to think England ought to have
