One stop they made when the nurse put
on his hat and wrapped his coat around
the boy, Then he took up his burden
again and halted not until they were
clear of the Building and grounds of the
Needles Eye hospital.
On the sidewalk the boy said family:

mere contemplation Whether he eats
at all at such times is mere conjec-
ture. Edison himself probably does
not remember. Perhaps he gets food
and recuperation from his Ideas. They
are tangible and palpable enough. SIN.
with the ordinary individual IL Is fear
ed that they would form a rather thin
diet.
Eating is a habit. There is no~doubt
OF that. Ii Is an expensive habit too.
Still. most hubits are difficult TO break.
and eating is one OF them. This raises
the old question Of whether we eat TO
live or live TO eat. Most folks do not
enter into this speculative aspect of the
question. They simply eat because they
like II. II indigestion follows. they
take dope.
Some years ago a Colorado Springs
man made the startling announcement
that he could live on air and water.
He had experimental. he said, and had
not suffered in consequence. He rec
commended this diet of wind pudding
and water consomme to his fellow be-
ings. We never heard how many took
up sliced atmosphere and the water
cure as q regular menu. If any of them
! did and survived, they never reported
the fact, to our knowledge. Possibly
they were tryingto forget the expert
ence.
Nevertheless 1t is probably a fact
that we eat too much. If we exercised
our lungs and muscles more and our
alimentary organs less, we would
doubtless have more health and GER
tainly more wealth at the end of the
year. But then, think of the enjoy
ment we would miss, to say nothing of
the grocers, butchers and bakers that
would be deprived of business! These
might be driven TO a curtailment of diet
as a matter of necessity.
Perhaps Temperance is the best rule
In all Things, even III promuISatlne
theories. Somewhere between the gor
mand and the wind pudding man is
the golden road Of sanity. Most mer
are governed in the amount they ea
by their appetites and the state of theil
pocketbooks. The proper adjustment
between the two has furnished thu
chief domestic problem in all ages.
Without attempting to solve thu
problem, here is chance throw: Ea
what you want. but don't want to,
much
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1904-05-27

sibility of even more. The Socialists
have already nominated Eugene V.
Debs. and the Social Labor party also
promises to nominate. The Republic
ans, Democrats and Prohibitionists
will, of course, each have ticket. The
Populists, whose convention occurs at
Springfield, ILL.,, on July 4, say that
they will name a ticket. In addition,
convention is already called to place
a negro candidate in the field. In case
of bolt from any Of these conventions
still another ticket is possible.
In case one of the minor parties
should secure enough electoral votes
to prevent any candidate receiving
majority of the college, the election
would be thrown into the present house
Of representatives. In that event, each
state has one vote, the majority of the
congressman from the state deciding
for whom the vote shall be cast. In
the same way the vice president would
be chosen by the senate, voting by bal
lot.
The present house of representatives,
before whom such contested election
would be thrown, stands POI Republic
ans to III Democrats, with two or
three vacancies. Voting by states, the
result would be 30 Republican to 10
Democratic, the vote of Rhode Island
being tie. The present senate stands
81 Republicans and 33 Democrats.
1t Is interesting to note that in the
makeup of the electoral college the
four large states of New York, Penn
sylvania, Illinois and Ohio have 113
votes, or two more than twenty-five of
the smaller states.
Considerable speculation is heard as
to the total of the popular vote. This
will depend, of course, on the interest
taken in the contest. In 1892 it was
12,059,351. In 1896 it sprang to the
phenomenal figures Of 1923, 102, and
In 1900 was 13,959,673. A similar aver
age increase would put it well up to
the 100000 mark this year.
