Eating No Joke.

Eating not e pleasant. not an elevat-
ing subject? No subject under the blue
canopy, no subject to be found be-
tween the covers of the latest ency-
clopedia is more worthy Of the deepest
and the highest and most sustained
thoughts OF man. And probably no
other subject receives half the atten
ton which Is given to eating. Nothing
has been more important in the prog
ress of the race than the additions to
the variety of mans food. In his prim-
tive state, a mere clam eater, he was
hardly superior to the beasts that per-
ish. When he became hunter, seek
ing the strong meats of wild game, he
developed new qualities. expanded In
tellectnally and gained in energy, en-
terprise and endurance. Then came
the pastoral and agricultural age, with
an acquired taste for vegetable
growths and the dawn Of civilization.
Every advance has been on the heels
Of something new to eat Today the
teeth of man declare him omnivorous.
though vegetable food is still heavy
tax on his powers Of digestion. He
lacks those multiple gastric arrange
ments by the aid Of which the COW, for
example, is able to subsist Oh vegetable
food alone.-Atlantic.

sank moaning into the seat. Her face
was haggard, and her escort regarded
her with deep anxiety.
Suddenly she extracted tiny vial

and was putting it to her lips when a
young man opposite sprang to his feet
and dashed it from her hand.

QUARANTINE PATROL REMOVED.
Qualification Expressed at the Success
of Capt. Ross Work.

Owing to the improved yellow fever con-
ditions in the south the quarantine patrol
OF the revenue cutter service has been re-
moved, except at Pensacola. Fla. where
two vessels remain to guard against the
importation of fever through vessels from
South American ports.
Capt. Worth G.. Ross, chief of the revenue
cutter service, has telegraphed to the COM
manders of the Seminole, Winona, Grace,
Alert and another vessel to cease their
quarantine and to resume their regular du-
ties along the Atlantic coast. The Hamil-
ton and Penrose are still on duty at Pensa-
cola.
Capt. Ross was himself in command OF
the squadron for a number of months, but
he left the command nearly a month ago
and returned to his duties at the treasury.
He has received the congratulations of the
Secretary of the Treasury on the success OF
the patrol, which boarded every vessel
bound for fever-infected ports and prevent
ed a single case of fever being carried into
the territory of the United States.
Representative Bowers of Mississippi
called at the treasury today to express 10
the officials there the general satisfaction
of the people of Mississippi and other
southern states at the effective quarantine
established by Capt. Ross and maintained
under his directions. II do not hesitate TO
say" declared Mr. Bowers to Star re-
porter ..that there has never been more
effective or satisfactory quarantine maiil-
tained on the gulf coast. 1t was. too. with
out friction of any sort after Capt Ross
took charge of things. There Is deep ap-
probation of his work throughout Mssis-
sippi and other states"
