RULERS OF THE WORLD.
Meat Eating Nations Are the Leader
in Every Branch Of Human Achieve
mcntS.

The ruling nations of the world are
meat eaters and history records that
they always have been.
VegetarianS and food crankS may eX-
plain this in any way they choose. but
the facts remain that the Americans
English, French, Russians and Ger
mans are meat-eating nations, and
they are also the most energetic and
most progressive.
The principal food of the heroic Boer
soldier known as Riltong, is sort Of
dried beef, affording a great deal Of
nourishment in a highly concentrated
form.
The weak races of people are the rice
eating Chinese, iindoos, ana SiamtSe,
regarded since the dawn of history as
nom progressive, superstitious and in
ferior physically and mentally to the
meat eating nations who dominate
them.
The structure Of the teeth plainly
indicates that human beings should
subsist upon variety Of food. meat,
fruit and grains. and it is unhygienic
to confine ones dict to any one of those
classes to the exclusion of another.

manner of living is often so unnatural

Nervous dyspepsia, catarrh of stom-

digestion, the failure to digest whole

Dyspepsia Tablets cures them all be-

the stomach has a chance to rest and
recover its natural tone and vigor.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the real
household medicine; it is as safe and

They are not cathartic, but a d.

others is rendered difficult by the alb

nership Of Telegraph Lines Discussed.

PittSburg, Pa. Nov. ia resolution
condenning the insurance scandals OF
New York was introduced ut Satur-
ton of Labor, and while the sense Of
the resolution was turned down, it was
amended so as to provide for the start
ing of trades union insurance if found
to be feasible. Not Il voice was raised

applause. 1t was declared that union
Insurance could be had ut saving of
80 to IS per cent. The scheme called
for then ational government to operate
it and to charge the expense jointly to
government, employers and employees.
A resolution attacking the National
Civic Federation and the interest taken
in il by President Gompers was voted
down with not a dissenting voice.
Another matter that was the cause
of considerable discussion, some of it
quite heated and acrimonious, was
relative to the union label movement

labor men to oppose the election of
senators and congressman who are
known to be hostile to organized labor
passed enthusiastically. This is taken
to mean that the federation proposes to
