HDRRoN.s SUCCESSOR

lCedar Rapids Republican,
f Judging him by his two appearances
in Cedar Rapids. DIR. Steiner, who now
occupies the chair of applied Chris
tianity at Iowa College, Grinnell, the
chair formerly occupied by Prof. Her
ron, is not only a man of exalted
character and possessed of a holy
zeal for his work, but safe and sane
teacher and leader.
Applied Christianity" is a new
term in faculty terminology. AS in
terpreted by Heron it was first made
to stand for what he called Christian
Socialism" and afterwards for a So
cialism that was altogether unchrls
tian IL not inhuman. Applied Chris
tianity as DR.. Steiner evidently inter
prets 1t means just what any sane per-
son would naturally suppose tt to mean
the application of the principles of
Jesus to daily living and doing. DR..
Steiner is evidently orthodox, but he
doesn't believe that the churcll's great
mission is to be a repository of accep-
ted beliefs. He wants 1T to be vital,
progressive force. warning against un-
Righteousness of every kind and in
every place.
The new professor of applied Chris
tianity at Iowa college has had Won
derful experience: Born in Europe
and raised there he has become as
thoroughly American as Jacob Riis,
and the two men are very much alike
in their enthusiasm for practical
achievement along sane and safe hu-
manitarian lines. DR.. Steiner's admin
istration may be confidently expected
to make the chair Of applied Christ
ianity at Grinnell a continuous and
growing power for good not only
within the immediate sphere of dts in
fiuence, but turnout our common
wealth. Young men and women
brought ander his influence are much
more apt to become practical workers
than they are to become theoretical
rantcIS and reckless iconoclasts.

VINO OUGHT 10 GET MARRlfDf

The Ohio legislature dabbled with
the marriage question at its recent
session by requiring applicants for
marriage licenses to answer the fol-
lowing questions on oath:
us either party habitual drunk
ard?"
rs either an epileptic?"
s rs either insane?"
us either under the influence OF an
Intoxicating liquor or OF Drug"
It Is eminently proper that all these
questions should be asked. Drunken
ness. epilepsy and insanity render
their victims unfit for marriage. An
insane person should be in an asylun,
an epileptic in hospital and a habit
ual drunkard under restraint. None
OF them are fit to be married and raise
children. Still the propounding of the
questions to eager candidates for mat
rimony is not likely to bring out as
much truth as perjury.
There uIe ~ uuIHDeI OIL peTl.HcIll
questions that might be added TO the
Ohio category. Insanity. epilepsy and
drink are not all the princ,.a. objec-
tions against matrimonial cand. dates
There are hundreds of young men
who might truthfully answer thu
Ohio questions in the negative who
are utterly unfit to take the life and
happiness of a decent woman into
their keeping.
There is no marvellous amount of
good to be expected from the Ohio law.
Men and women who are anxious to
get married, will scarcely check at
answering untruthfully. The fact IS
that the questions belong in the code
OF society and the home more than in
the statutes.
The essentials to success
ful or unhappy married exis-
tence are not fixed in the legisla-
ture but at the fireside. 1t is here
all the questions should be asked
and answered and the truth or falsity
OF the replies be Investigated and
made plain. But while position and
wealth are the best qualifications
wherewith to go wooing successfully,
there is as little hope held out in the
family as in the statute.

APPLES. FOR BREAKFAST.
A Prescription That May Save You
Many Doctors Fee.


The true, not the new, should be the
motto of those who write or speak
about the apple, the fruit longest In
use by our branch of the human race.
There are certain simple principles
that must be given, line upon line, pre-
cept upon precept. to every fresh gener-
alton of men or rather should be given
just about that time that the genera
ton is beginning to lose it's freshness
and to call on the doctor for remedies.
Every well to do man of good digestion
and appetite tends to eat too much
meat every day after his twenty-6fth
birthday. and one Of the values OF
fruit, the apple above others, is the
case with which it may be made an
"antimeat for breakfast article. With
baked apples and cream and good
roast potatoes on the breakfast table
the dish of cold or hot meat becomes
subordinate even If 1t is not entirely
abolished. Men of forty, the age when
every man not fool is supposed to
have acquired the right to give medical
advice, at least to himself, will relate
their various wonderful discoveries and
remarkable self cures just as they had
given up all hope. and in general these
reduce themselves to this: Il ate less
meat, but did not know it, and I took
q great deal more fruit, especially ap-
ples.'
Baked apples for breakfast tend to
reduce the amount Of meat eaten If we
are inclined to eat too much and to
supply the system with mineral foods
and the digestive tract with acids.
People who eat too much food are not
to be advised to eat baked apples as a
mere addition to the breakfast, and
those who need substantial meal
must not let the baked apple interfere
with the taking of solid food. AS a
rule, those who eat three meals per
diem will wisely have the incest dish
of baked apples obtainable for break
fast. 1t is a piece OF simple wisdom
worth pages OF ordinary medical litera-
ture. The digestion of milk is some
what delayed by sour fruits. but pure,
rich cream is not milk, and taken with
a juicy baked apple what dish can be
more tempting and wholesome?
If you are twenty eight or thirty five,
inclined to ring the doctors bell and
talk with your druggist, try this pre-
scription. You may put sugar on the
apples. but we shall not sugar coat the
with any mystery or any claim
to novelty. We merely turn to your
good wife or your housekeeper and ask
she is careful to give you nice
roast apples and cream and to make
the breakfast meat dishes as little
tempting as may be.-American Gar
den.

This seems 10 call for further exp1a-
nation from Secretary Shaw. 1t mas
been urged as the main poin. in the de-
tense of the ex- governor THAT the pa
role was granted a month after cleo
ton. long after Mr. Dennison had eX''
pended a considerable sum. Of which he
thriftily kept d record. to bring "niggers
into Council bluffs to vote for Gear TO
secure Blythes influence with the gov.
ernor." Now it develops IN yesterday $
argument that the thrifty Dennisola
knew a month in advance that Sher-
was a secret between Dennison ana
some one else, for he took the county
clerk into a vault and whispered it to
him. The question is, was Dennison a.
clairvoyant, or had somebody told him?
If some one had assured him of Sher-
cliffe's release, who was 1t? And Why
was he told? From the Shaw protest
published in the Register and Leader
and the insistence of certain Iowa
newspapers it is to be inferred that
Governor Shaw himself didn't know a
month ahead that he would parole
Shercliffe Shaw and his papers should
continue the explanation. The people
want to know how 1t all came about.
And they have a right to know.
Doubtless the explanation will be
Forthcoming. Otherwise, putting this
and that together, the suspicion is like
ly to gain ground that the Dennison
deal was made before election and the
Shercliffe parole made contingent upon
the delivery of the BLACK goods" in
Council Bluffs where they might do the
most good for Gear and gain the good
will of his SON in-law, the "strategist"
from Burlington. Unfortunately. Judge
Hubbard's chummy letter about Dave"

of relatives" is likely to strengthen
this suspicion in the minds of the plain
people, who felt none of Dawes" neces
sity for votes in Nebraska nor the dire
demand for niggers in Council Bluffs.
The plain people are not to be blamed
for entertaining suspicion. Between
tia etc "a honco of q commonwealth like
Iowa and the crooked mentor of dia-
mond thief there is a great gulf fixed.
The people want to know how the rail-
road engineers and "strategists' man
aged to bridge it. Possibly the well in
formed Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Chronicle might consent to
throw some light on the matter.
