The School Principal Talks About Food
The Principal of High School in a
flourishing California city says:
'For % years worked In the school

formed the habit of eating rapidly,
masticated poorly, which coupled with
my sedentary work led to indigestion,
liver trouble, lame back and rheuma-

doped me with drugs, while others pre-
scribed dieting and sometimes l got
temporary relief. other times not. For

TIE SPIDERS LIFELINE.

The more man learns of the ways Of
animals the more he respects them,
and the more he feels that they are
embodiments of the wisdom of the Gre
ntor as truly as man himself. There
fore, although mans experiments with
tile mute creatures are sometimes
trifle hard on them, there Is an ulti-
mate gain in understanding and SYM
pathy. A writer in the Hearth tells of
an experiment he made on a spider.
took wash basin and fastened in
It stick upright like mast, and then
poured water enough to turn the stick
into an island for my spider, which
I named Crusoe.
1 put him on the mast. As soon as
he was fairly cast away he anxiously
commenced running round to find the
mainland. He would scamper down
the mast to the water, stick out foot,
get it wet, shake 1t, run round the
stick and try the other side, and then
run back to the top again.
Pretty soon 1t became a serious mat
tSh W 2hi. SiuSOcy anu hC sat uO"h
to think it over As 1 was afraid he
might be hungry, put molasses on
the mast. A fly came, but Crusoe
wasn't hungry for flies just then. He
was homesick for his web in the cor
ner of the wood shed. He went slowly
down the pole to the water and touch
ed it all around, shaking his feet as
pussy does when she vets her stock
ings in the damp grass.
Suddenly a thought appeared to
strike him. Up he went, like rocket,
to the top, and began to play circus.
He held one foot in the air, then anoth-
er, and turned round two or three
times.
He got excited, and nearly stood on
his head before found out what he
had discovered, and that was that the
draft Of air made by the fire would
carry line ashore on which he could
escape from his desert island
He pushed out thread that went
floating in the air, and heightened and
heightened until at last it caught OH
the table. Then he hauled on the rope
until it was tight, struck it several
times to see il it was strong enough
to hold him, and walked ashore. l
decided that he had earned his liberty.

catarrh in any form or la grippe. a
course Of Peruna is sure to correct all
these conditions. 1t is an ideal spring
medicine. Peruna does not irritate-it
invigorates. 1t does not temporarily
stimulate-it strengthens. 1t equalizes
the circulation of the blood, tranquilizes
the nervous system and regulates the
bodily functions. Peruna, unlike so
many spring medicines, is not simply a
physic or stimulant or nervine. 1t is a
natural tonic and invigorator.

The Smoo4 Case.

The Republican leaders in the SEN

a roaring farce. OF course for politi-

for non-action before the adjournment

The sun has just crossed the equator
on its yearly trip north. The real
equator is shifted toward the north
nearly eighteen miles every day. With
the return of the sun comes the bodily
ills peculiar to spring. With one per-

digestion poor; with others the blood is
out of order; and still others have
depressed spirits and tired feeling.

week or two ago gave out the infOr-
nation that he was not going to run
amuck against the trusts" and, it is
said, President Roosevelt authorized
this statement. The evidence accumu-
lates that the administration has COM
pleted its trust busting campaign and
is now intent on propitiating the trusts
and corporations, SO that their cOntri-
buttons and cooperation may be as
liberal in the coming as in other ma
tional campaigns. Perhaps later,

urgent, those trusts who have not

Sheep and Hens and Wool and Eggs.
The insignificance of our sheep and
wool industry is seen when compared
with our poultry and egg industry.
While the total value of our wool prod
net last year was only $5S.775.3I733,
that of our egg product was S145. .O0o,-
COO in 1899 and probably $2OO,GOO,OOO
last year.
The value of the 81 ,CO0.O0 dozens of
eggs laid in Ohio in 1899 was over
S10.000,O0O, while the value of the 12,
100000 pounds of wool produced there
was only S3.13 POS. and yet Ohio is
by far the largest wool-grOwing State
east of the Rocky Mountains. If Ohio
sheep could be made TO produce as
much value as do Ohio hens, the pro
tectionists there, from Grosvenor
down, might be excused for doing
in that State.
Even the value of the poultry killed
for food is S13O,OOO.OOO a year or two
and half times the value of our wool
products.
In view of these facts. why is there
so much fuss and feathers about pro-
lection to our sheep and wool industry
and so little said about the industrious
hen and her valuable egg product on
the part of eur tariff worshippers?
Could not our farmers be made to be-
lieve that their far more valuable egg
and poultry industry is entirely de-
pendent upon the duties upon the eggs
and chickens?
Is it not certain that this industry
would be ruined, and that our domestic
hens would Immediately retire from
business if the tariff duties were taken
off and the pauper hens of Europe and
their cheap-labor products were put on
the free list: Are not our protectiOnist
friends overlooking good thing when
they neglect to fill the Congressional
Record with speeches and statistics
showing the great benefit of protection
to this great and growing industry:
Would it not, in fact, be better for
their cause if they would drop the de-
clining sheep and wool industry and
let it go to the dogs, where it appears
to be going in spite Of extremely high
duties?
