The popular cults of "vegotarianism,'
natural foods and ''uncooked foods
find their crack object lesson to-day in
the nut, which not so many years ngo
was held to be so indigcstiblc that only
squirrels. and children with cast-iron
stoinachs were deemed equal to it's as
siinilation. Bon v~ivants. there were.
who ended their Lucullian feasts with
walnuts and wine; but they paid the
penalty in an aftermath of govt or acute
indigestion; while the child who in
dulged too literally just before going
to bed. received scant sympathy in his
divers pains and midnight moaning that
followed. To-day every one knows. or
ought to know, that nuts must be eaten
with salt to assist in their Indigestion.
Then, if thoroughly masticatcd, they may
be eaten raw by almost anyone, while
cooked in an infinitude Of ways. they
add variety as well as piquancy to the
die tary.

THE MERIT SYSTEM IN COUNTIES.

The State Civil Service Commissions extern
sion OF the Civil Service rules to four addi-
donal counties in the state which took effect
with the approval of Governor Higgins on No
vember 1. is an important advance in the appli-
cation of the merit system In his first annual
message last January Governor Higgins pro-
posed this extension. A large amount of pre-
nminary work was required before the plan
could be put into effect. In counties to which
the Civil Service rules had not been extended
there was little or no system in the arrange
ment of the subordinate staffs and in some
cases 1t was almost impossible to find out how
many persons were lawfully employed in
office and what was their tenure. In 1900 the
services of New-York, Kings, Queens, Rich
mond and Erie counties classified. 1t
was first proposed TO make this years exten-
sion apply TO all of the counties containing
second class cities but investigation showed
that in two such counties Oneida and Rensse-
laer the county officers were so largely COM
nensated by fees out OF which they paid their
own assistants, that classification would be
