OF OUTDOOR LIFE.
bhysician's Son Returns to Primeval
Ways to Regain Strength.

A son of a Portland (Ore.) physician
world by the startling and novel meth
cd Of living which he has adopted, and
which he advises all to adopt who de-
sire perfect health and a rugged con-
stitution, says the st. Louis Republic.
He advocates a return to the primitive
way of living by discarding clothing.
Ernest w. Darling, a son of DR.. J.
w. Darling of Portland, is the man
who advocates the return to the ways
primeval. Until a year ago he lived
in Portland, but was compelled to seek
q SUMMER cline on account Of his
health. For the past year he has lived
on the summit Of a hill on the out
skirts of Los Angeles. Cal. He does
not occupy a house nor even a tent.
The sole habitation Of which he can
boast is u bed that consists of a hole
in the ground of about I by 4 feet and 2
feet in depth. In that peculiar place,
| wrapped in blankets, he seeks rest. He
! is an ardent lover of nature and be-
! lieves hat by his method of living he is
| able to more closely With it's
invisible forms and at the same time
shattered by disease.
"Good health is the first requisite for
| religion or anything else,". he says,
when questioned concerning his .noyel
ideas. II firmly believe that If we take
perfect care OF our health. avoiding all
accident or disease, we shall live eter-
nally in these bodies of ours. Every
person should learn gradually to live
outdoors and to live or natural food
that is, food just as it comes from the
hand. of nature.
1.-THE objects in living on natural
food are:
"First.-To make us more natural in
thought and in action.
"Second.-From al economical stand
point, it Is far cheaper where these fruits
grow. 1t Is wei! known by travellers In
the tropics that we can live on 81 a
month or less.
~''Third.-There is a very decided human
itarian issue in this diet. No animal has
to suffer imprisonment and final slaugh-
ter in order to feed the fruitarian. The
fruitarian will take his meal directly from
the tree and eat"
When he left Portland a year ago
Mr.. Darling weighed ninety pounds,
while now he weighs in the neighbor'
hood of 175 pounds. It was done with
out a drop of medicine.
He rises at daylight, takes a quick
cold shower bath, then runs half q
mile or so, throwing of su%perduous
clothing. Then he goes through a Sc
ries of calisthenic exercises before eat
ing breakfast of fruit. He declares
that he eats regularly three times each
day and always has a good appetite.

ONE OF STANLEY'S GIFTS.
How the Late African Explorer
Judged Men.

judged Men.
Some men can judge of another
mans capacity at first sight. The late
Sir Henry NJ. Stanley had the gift, of
which this anecdote is an illustration.
When Archibald r. Colquhoun. who is
the author of Greater America" just
published by the Harpers, was in the
service of the India office he called one
day upon tine late Sir Edwin Arnold
and met Stanley there. They talked to-
gether a few moments and parted.
Next morning a telegram reached Col
quhoun from Stanley asking him to
call at nee
He did so and was greeted without
formality and with the following bull
let-like sentence: Twill you go to the
| Kongo Free State as second in com
mand?" Colquhoun' expressed his
| amazement at Stanley's confidence in
| him upon so slight an acquaintance. y
always make up my mind at once
about men, replied the explorer. Mr.
| Colquhoun could not accept. as the
India Office declined giving him leave
of absence. Had he gone he woul6
have been the first governor Of thu
Kongo Free State.

party given last Tuesday evening by
| Miss Jessie Hoyt in honor OF Miss
Mamie kountz and Miss Edna Tracy,
Bozeman young ladies who had been
visiting her. The home was tastefully
decorated with vines and roses Whist
was played by the guests, who num-
bered about 40, and later a bountiful
luncheon vas served. Because Of the
forgetfulness of the dignified elderly
gentleman to whom was entrusted the
matter of communicating with the
newspapers, mention of the affair was
impossible until this date.
J. w. Vaughan returned Sunday
morning from a visit to different
places in Missouri. He was gone since
the latter part of April, when he left

sition. Mr.. Vaughan brings confirma'
ton of the story of the good fortune
that has befallen Frank Roberts and
says that Roberts has gone east to
take possession of the legacy left him
by an uncle, and that Roberts told
him he would return to Billings and
make restitution to those who sub
scribed toward the fund with which
the express company was reimbursed
and which caused him to escape prose
