Some one complains in a contem-
porary because the American people
display so few pictures Of the i'm
mortal Washington, says Leslie's
Weekly. There is justice in the COM
plant, and in this connection it is
a curious fact that under certain cir
| cumstances il is a misdemeanor to dis
| play a picture of Washington in Massa-
chusetts. In the recent amateur photo
graphic contest in the Fourth of July
number of a prominent American pa
per, one of the entries was a photo
graph Of a little child holding a United
| States flag, decorated with a beauti-
full picture of Washington. The pub
| Usher was promptly informed by a
| Boston society, organized to protect
the American flag from DETACHMENT,
that the publication of the flag with
| Washingtons picture upon il was a
I violation nf the MaEca ct
and would Subject the paper TO seizure
and confiscatiOn If an attempt were
made TO sell copies containing the por-
| trait on any news stand in MasSa-
chusetts. If anything more ridiculous
! could be conjured up in the name of
| patriotism, we would like TO know it.
| Evidently the days of the blue Ia Tvs
Of New England have not passed. We
recommend to the distinguished and
( able Governor of Massachusetts that
he put a little of his own native COM
mon sense into the statute. whose pur-
pose was proper, but whose intention
is being so perverted as TO make it
absolutely ridiculous.
1t is the opinion of physicians gem
erally-and they seem to have inbued
| the general public with a like notion
| that toasted bread is much more cas-
| lily digested than that cut fresh from
the loaf, says the Baltimore sun. Some
! are inclined TO be skeptical In the mat
| ter, however. The doctor, il asked.
| will probably state that the increased
! digestibility is due both to a physical
! and chemical change produced by the
| toasting process, which results in a
! transformation of the carbohydrates
! into more readily soluble forms. A
| writer in a government report on the
subject gives the results of a series
Of analysis showing the changes that
| he found in bread produced by toast
| ing at different temperatures For in
stance, bread heated for one hour at
| 2l2 degrees Fahrenheit lost about "a
| per cent. in weight and contained -
| per cent of matter soluble in water.

about 300 degrees Fahrenheit. was

Brown toast made at 33s degrees Fab

and brown toast, made by the usual

suits OF these experiments. but II is
