unique exhibition and a valuable ad-
junct to the study Of municipal prob

half of it never gets an object lesson as
to how the other half fares in the mat

housing, schools, public art and the
like. Cities thousands Of miles apart
strive to solve the same questions by
means radically different, and a mu-
scum where the results in each case
are displayed side by side will be of
incalculable service to the officials of
cities which still have the ground to

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD,
Also a Few Facts on the Same Subject.

Also a Few Facts on the Same Subject.
We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living. about vege-
tarianism and many other fads along
the same line
Restaurants may be found in the large
cities where no meat, pastry or coffee is
served and the food crank is in his glory.
and arguments and theories galore ad
Eanced to prove that meat was never
intended for human stomachs, and al
most make us believe that our sturdy
ancestors who lived four score years In
robust health ca roast beef, pork and
mutton must have been grossly ignorant
of the laws of health.
Our forefathers had other things to do
than formulate theories about the food
they ate. 4 warm welcome was extend
ed 10 any kind from. bacon to aeorns.
a healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides to follow in matters
of diet, and a mixed diet of grains. fruits
and meals is undoubtedly the best.
AS compared with grains and yege-
tables, meat furnishes the most nutri-
rnent in highly concentrated form and
is digested and assimiiated more quickly
than vegetables and grains.
Dr. Julius Remmson on this subject
says: Nervous persons, people run down
in health and OF low vitality should eat
meat and plenty of it. If the digestion
corrected by the regular use of Stuart s
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. Two
OF these excellent tablets taken after
dinner will digest several thousand
grains of meat, eggs or other animal
food in three hours, and no matter how
weak the stomach may be, no trouble
will be experienced If Il regular prac-
tice is made of using Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets, because they supply the pepsin
and diaStaSe necessary 20 perfect diges-
ton. anu every form of indigestion will
be overcome by their use.
That large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspepsia

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed o1

| Cheap cathartic medicines, masquerad

a vivid reminder of the great storm. In
the 1899 blizzard the streets were COW

me, as their maliciousness is evident

RAYNER MAY VIE
WITH GORNAN
Rival for Leadership OF
Maryland Party.
MAY BE TROUBLE IN SENATE
Agreed at Dinner to Work in Har-
mony-But There Is No Love
Lost Between Them.
MAY BE TROUBLE IN SENATE

BALTIMORE Feb 13.-Democratic
politicians are wondering whether Isidor
Eayner. who takes his seat N the
United States Senate March 4 next, will
attempt TO rival Senator German as a
leader of the party III Maryland. or
whether he will keep his hands off the
organization and stick strictly TO his
Senatorial duties.
German did everything he could to de-
feat Rayner for the Senatorship. While
they will formally exchange the usual
courtesies of Senatorial colleagues, they
have no love for each other.
No Division of Honors.
1t is certain that German will utterly
ignore Rayner. in so far as State leader
ship is concerned. There will be no di-
vision of honors along this line.
Mr. Rayner has made no requests for
special committee assignments. AS Cor
man is one of the most Influential mem
bers of the Democratic caucus, he will
mittees upon which his colleague will
serve.
No Congratulations Sent.
Mr.. German never even sent Rayne1
formal letter of congratulation on his
election as Senator.
They met in New York during the last
Presidential campaign and agreed te
work in harmony during the remainder
of that campaign. But just what vii
be their future relations political de
velopments only will tell
If the men who made Rayner'S cleo
ton possible should demand that ne re
main in the attitude of u political op
ponent of German there will be some
mighty interesting developments.
