YincoIn,s Religion

There has recently been a revival or
the old controversy as to whether
Abraham Lincoln was brought up In
the Roman Catholic faith. Archbishop
Ireland, according to the Springfield
Republican, has, however, put q
ouIetus on the discussion by a state
ment of what the old missionary,
Father st. Cyr, told him years ago.
Lincoln's father and stepmother were
both Catholics, though how they be-
came so is not clear. Father ST. Cyr
said mass many times at their house.

phatically that the boy Abraham never
had been Catholic.

MODERN FOOTBALL.

Got II From Greece.
Did modern football, the Rugby
game, travel to England from the Italy
of the renaissance and does Its his
tory reach back to ancient GreeceF A
recent writer says: Probably not moro
than q few votaries Of Rugby football
are aware that we have to thank Flor
entine athletes for the invention or the
game and for Its introduction into
Great Britain. Rugby school was
founded somewhere about 1867. II was
one OF the direct results OF what has
been called the Florentine or Tuscan
fever in England, which set in late In
the Italian renaissance. Not only ulu
men Of letters come over and settle III
England's centers of learning md ere

cd in the theory and practice OF polite
culture came as well. The game OF IL
caicio came to Florence by way OF
Greece. Something OF the sort had hg-

ground was the Piazza di Santa Croce'
where upon the wall Of the Paiaz1o

from which the line dividing the
ground was drawn across the open
square The ball was Of leather, con-
tanning an inflated bladder, and appar-
emily was the exact size, weight ana
shape Of the Rugby ball OF today.
"II CALICO consisted Of friendly con-
test between two equal sides OF play
ers called schiera azzura and schiera
rossa-blues and reds. The number OF
players varied according to the size OF
the ground or the Importance OF the en-
counter. In the Piazza oil Santa Oroce
the sides were twenty to twenty-seVeh
strong while on the public open sports
Ground at Peretola they totaled as
many as sixty each. Originally the
players were required to be of noble or
gentle blood or such as had gained dis
t,nction and rank In the profession OF
arms. Each man had to be OF unpiem'
ished reputation and Of graceful inquire
and possessed Of accomplished man

THE CAPITOL AS A WHOLE
Little Hope That IL VIII Ever DC
ArchitecturalIy Perfect.

II Is not the contention even OF en-
thusiasts that the capitol is or ever
will be a complete and perfect whole.
There is little hope that it will ever
be entirely finished and still less that
II may attain perfection. Apropos OF
the dome, for instance, it may be re-
called that the rhetorical and fastlu-
ious Ruskin does not admit or iron as
a constructive material, and on tnose
grounds inveighed disdainfully against
the spire OF Rouen cathedral. Purity
and pettishness aside, there are other
reasons why the building fails 10 con-
form with the essentials of really great
architecture. AS far as the interior Is
concerned. the situation Is anything
but sublime, and il is hence pleas
ure to know that Elliott Woods, SUI
perintendent of the capitol building
and grounds. has under Amusement
proposition for the rehabilitation or the
rotunda. Yet the faults of the capitol
appear in a measure inevitable TO tloSe
who know and treasure its history
Looked at broadly, they are not faults
but merely venerable shortcomings IN
cidental 10 growth and development.
Considering the Importance of the pro
spective alterations and extensions, the
evolution Of the building seems TO nave
entered upon an approximately maj
stage. and it is gratifying to know that
congress, the superintendent and the
consulting architects realize the dig
nity and seriousness of the task IN
hand. Something of the old simplicity
should guide and chaSten each effort.
To this simplicity should also be added
q reverence for those traditional ideals
and aspirations which are, happily,
81 country's or an individuals most
cherished heritage.
The panorama, once its several fea-
lures are supplied, will present a ma
jestic and inspiring spectacle. Grouped
about the spacious court will be five
superb structures-the capitol on the
west. the senate and house office build
ings to the north and south and the
Congressional library and its compan
ion on the east. To the average eye
the capitol will offer little change
There will merely be a grateful gair
In repose and proportion. 1t will, as

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.

We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living about
vegetarianism and many other fads
along the same line.
Restaurants may be found IN inc
large cities where no meat, pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank ia

theories galore advanced to prove that
meat was never intended for human
stomachs, aud almost make us believe
that our sturdy ancestors who lived
four score years in robust health on
roast beef, pork and mutton, must
have been grossly ignorant of the laws
OF health.
Our rorefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome was
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common
sense sre excellent guides to follow III
matters of diet, and n mixed diet OF
grains fruits and meats is undoubted-
~ the best.
AS compared with grains and vegc-
tables, meat furnishes the most nutri-
ment in a highly concentrated form.
and is digested and assiinlated more
quickly than vegetables and grains.

That large class of people who come

of safe, harmless digestive medi-
cine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
composed of the fruits. acids and salts
which actually perform the work of
digestion. Cheap cathartic medicines,
masquerading under the name of dys-
pepsia cures are useless for indigestion
as they have absolutely no effect upon
the actual digestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all it's forms Is simply
a failure Of the stomach to digest food
and the sensible way to solve the rid

daily use at each meal time of a pre-

A NEW COLD RECORD
Thirty Below Zero Reached Sunday
Nieht-on Thirty seven Out of Past
Seventy five Days Mercury Has
Gone Below Zero-The Snow Record.

A new record for cold weather was
established Sunday night when the
mercury touched 80 as the minimum for
the twenty-four hours ending at 1880
this morning. The lowest record pre-
viously made was 81 below, reached
twice carly this month. The mercury
did not venture above below all day
Sunday, and with the hard wind from
the northwest. the weather seemed
much colder than it really was. AT b
o'clock Sunday evening Ia below was
registered, and at 1870 this morning
the mercury stood at 20 below. Sat
urady's maximum was above, and
the minimum was IL below.
A statement of the weather during
the present winter months VIII be OF
interest. Thirty below, the minumufn
reached Sunday night, is the coolest
point reached since the winter OF 1872.
In December 1904, there We're seven
DAYS during the month when the mer-
curry fell below zero. January saw
eighteen DAYS. or more than half the
month, when the mercury went below
zero. and on twelve of the thirteen
days of the present month it has been
below zero. This makes thirty-seven
of the seventy-flve days of December
January and February, that show
record of below zero at some time
during the twenty-four hours.
The snow record is also interesting
December showed AN aggregate snow
fall of 107 inches; January, ILL; and
