The walnut tree begins TO bear when
six or seven years cid. and nothing Is
known definitely of its age limit Of
bearing. Fabulous stories are told OF
trees In Spain one or two centuries old

prime from its twenty-ffth to its thir-i

There never was greater need Of
temporance and Judgment on the part
OF the Republican voters Of this state,
whether ihey boast of prefix or re-

rests upon the press. odip dnd lest

which are associated with those names.

worthy Of acceptance. For men who

repugnant to public morals they must
be abandoned. II either party has had
leaders which have sought only their

Indication Of the desirabillty of food.
and nature controls its quantity only
by absolute rebellion.
There are two kinds OF the human
animal: there is the thin man. dyspep-
tic, diseased. irritable and nervous.
His life has been lzeytl too high. He
has been too eager to have houses,
bank stock. automobiles and an i'm
posing tomb. He usually gets the lass
prematureiy. Then there is the sleek,
wen fed animal whose chief quality is
inertia, and his next the desire to
feed. He puts on flesh, but he doesn't
build IN bone and muscle. He conveys
his flabby body from place TO place
without excrtion on his own pn't. To
such person the discussion OF ideals
is to mention something suitable for a
jest, for he cannot comprehend such
pleas.
It would be a good thing then for
most Of the race If there were genS
eral observance Of the Lenten season.
why men have lived for forty days
without touching food and to cut off
Ia few Of our luxuries to curb few
vicious tastes. to eat less and drink
less and cease TO pet the appetite-to
allow the spirit to creep forth from its
pampered body and reign for a time,
would be better for our temporal, as
well as our spiritual existence.
