was very fond Of a Joke, and he had
an inexhaustible fund Of good stories.
On one occasion he told how, when
he was practicing attorney. he OBJ
tanned verdict for larger sum than
the amount Of his claim. After the
verdict had been rendered he asked a
Juror whom he knew well how 1t came
about that the verdict was far more

1T was this way" the juror replied.
"A number Of the jurors were against
you, Mr.. Stewart, while | thought YOU
ought to have what you asked for.
Finally, as compromise, we agreed
that each juror should put down the
amount You ought to have and that

WHY WE NEED MEAT.
Mixed Food for Human Beings 10
Most Economical.

M1XeO r OOu IOT
Most Economical.
The chemical composition argument
shows that a mixed diet for human
beings is the most economical: but the
physiological argument shows that II
is the natural diet for man. Mans
digestive apparatus shows that a
mixed diet is best says Quain's Die
tionary Of Medicine.
First. our teeth are like neither the
teeth of the vegetarian animals nor OF
flesh eating animals, but about half
way between. The grinders" In the
herbivora are very large, and consist
of wonderful arrangement OF very
hard and less hard substances, which
wear unevenly and keep the crowns
always furrowed for grinding. Oul
moars are not so large or broad
crowned. while the typical molars OF
the carnivores are almost as sharp al
the cutting teeth.
Secondly. the intestines> of sheep and
other vegetarian animals are very long
Of flesh ating animals quite short, and
of man a medium length.
Thirdly, the digestive juices of car
nivores are unequal to the task Of ef
ficiently digesting vegetables; the
herblvOre can digest the hard cellulose
Of raw oats, grass, etc, while man can
not digest cellulose at all. He needs
most of his vegetables to be softened
by cooking and he can easily digest
meat raw or cooked.
We have also an argument support
ing mixed diet in the fact that 1t is the
food of the leading nations. Neither
