WASTE OF FOOD IN NEW YORK
Enough to Feed 1,ooo,ooo Poor People

Enough to Feed 100000 Poor People
Is Thrown Away.
The food supply of New York is so
enormous that though the rich and
well-to-do gorged from morning to
night they simply could not eat it all.
There would still remain an abund-
ance for every one if some way could
be found of distributing the fragments.
Just consider the figures which
have on careful authority: New York
receives every week 100000 pounds
offs dressed beef, 100000 pounds of
pork, ham and pigs meat, 100000
pounds of poultry, 100000 pounds of
sausages, 100000 pounds of mutton
and lamb, over 100000 pounds of
liver, heart, tripe, etc., over 100000
pounds of canned meats, 100000
pounds Of game, and 100000 pounds
of fish.
The fragments of this food, tons and
tons of it, are collected every day and
carried off to fatten pigs in Jersey
or load the fertilizer scows that ply
down the bay. Every day of the year
from 500 to 900 carloads of food,
much of it perfectly'good, are taken
from the homes and hotels of New
York and simply thrown away. A
million people could live and live we'll
on this waste if the problem Of col
lecting and distributing it could once
be solved. And l suppose any kind
hearted individual could solve it in a
small way himself-with a wagon and
q little brains.-Success.

Why He Paid the Fare.

Three small boys who were in a
crowded car going to suburban ball
game were discussing the effect the
cost of the trip would have on their
supply Of pocket money, and had
reached the point where they were de-
Gliding if they wouldn't have to walk
home if they paid to get into the
grounds.
II WON'T" declared one of the boys.
"Why not?" asked his, incredulous
companions.
The boy with the scent surplus jerk
ed his head in the direction of young
man On the end of the seat and ex-
claimed, "He paid my fare:'
"Oh, know what he did that for"
commented one of the youthful cynics.
Hes after your sister."-New York

A Social Battle Rovaj.

This season, more than ever, a des-
perate attempt has been made to re-
vive the chaperon, and an equally firm
stand is made against her by the
young married hostess, who want all
the room at their command for their
young guests. I hope the chaperons
will win the day. The decline of the
chaperon has certainly been synony-
nous with the decline of manners,
and one might also go so far as to say
of morals.-London Ladys Pictorial

CHANGED HUSBAND.

Wife Made Wise Change in Food.
Change of diet is the only way to
really cure stomach and bowel trouble.
A woman says:
my husband had dyspepsia when
we were married and had suffered
from it for several years. 1t was al
most impossible to find anything he
could eat without bad results.
81 thought this was largely due to
the use of coffee and persuaded him
to discontinue it. He did so, and be-
gan to drink Postum Food Coffee. The
change did him good from the begin
ming. his digestion improved; he suf-
fered much less from his nervousness,
and when he added Grape-Nuts food
to his diet he was soon entirely cured.
'My friend, Mrs. - -, of Vicks-
burg (my former home) had become a
nervous wreck also from dyspepsia.
Medicines had no effect, neither did
travel help her. On my last visit home,
several months ago, persuaded her to
use Grape-Nuts food. She was in de-
spair, and consented She stuck to it
until it restored her health so COM
pletely that she is now the most enthu-
siastic friend of Grape-Nuts that ever
knew. She eats it with cream or dry,
Just as it comes from the package
keeps it in her room and eats it when
ever she feels like it.
Il began eating Grape-Nuts food,
myself, when my baby was two
months old, and don't know what l
should have done without it. My ap-
petite was gone, was weak and nerv-
Gus and afforded but very little nour-
1shment for the child. The Grape Nuts
food, of which soon grew very fond,
speedily set all this right again, and
the baby grew Realthful, rosy and
beautiful as a mother could wish. He
is two years old now and eats Grape
Nuts food himself. I wish every tired
young mother knew Of the good that
Grape-Nuts would do her."

A .SteepIeiack's Experience.

Some years ago steeplejack was
employed to remove the scaffolding
from the chimney of Yorkshire mill.
When he had nearly completed his
work he unfortunately let the rope
drop by which he should have de-
scended, and, to the CONSERVATION of
the spectators below, he was held a
prisoner at the top of the chimney.
But the Yorkshireman was not to
be beaten. He unravelled his socks,
and by this means let down a note
asking them to fasten some string to
the end Of the wool. When he had
pulled up the one end of the string
the rope was tied to the other, and so
he descended safely.

Lamb-Raisinq in VIRGINIA.

Sheep, or more properly speaking,
lamb raising, is an industry of great
Importance in Virginia. Statistics for
1904 give 574,913 sheep in Virginia,
valued at $1,7O5,611. This industry is
not developed in proportion to the
opportunities offered by the natural
conditions existing in the state. The
entire Shenandoah valley, the Appa-
lachian region, as well as the Pied
mont section, offer excellent facilities
for sheep raising.-Southern Farm

To a Child.

The leaves talked in the twilight, dear:
,Hearken the tale they told:
How. in some far-off place and year,
Before the world grew old,
I was dreaming forest tree,
You were a Wild sweet bird
That sheltered at the heart Of me,
Because the north wind stirred.
How, when the chiding gale was still,
When peace fell soft on fear,
You stayed one golden hour to fill
Ny dream with singing, dear.
Tonight. the selfsame songs are sung
The first green forest heard;.
MY heart and the gray world grow young
TO shelter you, my bird.

HONOR NEW YORKER
WHY, kANsANs REVERE MEMORY
OF THADDEUs HYATT. II. v !
Organized Relief Expedition for the
Suffering Settlers Of the sunflower
state-His Monument an Abandon
ed Boat on a Sandbar..

"Forty-eight years ago a New York
man named Thaddeus Hyatt did a
wonderful thing in Kansas; which
made him talked about all over that
section. Did any of you ever hear of
Thaddeus Hyatt?" asked a Kansas
man of New York crowd that was
showing him the. sights.
No one in the crowd had ever heard
of Mr.. Hyatt.
"Well," continued the Kansas man,
there is crumbling monument to his
memory on sandbar in what is now
called on the maps the Kansas river,
but when Hyatt was out there it was
known as the Kaw river. 1t was not
SO wide as the Harlem, but it was put
down in 1857 as a navigable stream,
the only navigable stream in the state.
You can stand on one side of the
river now and throw your hat across
to the bank opposite.
Hyatt was a good type of the
hustling Fastener when he went out
to Kansas. The country was suffer
ing from a grasshopper plague.
"A lot of Eastern people who had
gone out there to seek fortune lived
up the Kaw river They wanted some.
thing to eat. Hyatt built steam,
boat OF light draft for the purpose OF
supplying the people with the neces
saries of life.
He named his boat the Lightfoot
She was to run from Kansas City tc
Lawrence. She made. only one trip
Her passengers were men who after
ward became famous in the West. The
captain of the boat some years later
was governor of New Mexico.
"As the Lightfoot ascended the
Kaw the people turned out and sa
luted her, and when she reached he1
destination the town of Lawrence
made the event a holiday and gave
the captain and his passengers bal
to commemorate the event.
"On the return trip the Lightfoo1
struck a sandbar and stuck. The wa
ters were rapidly receding. No othe1
boat could get to her to pull her off
She was finally deserted and later
dismantled.
But the remains of the hull are
still to be seen at low stages OF water
sticking out of the sand, and a few
people are still living out there who
point out the wreck as Thaddeus
Hyatt's monument.
Near the site where the Lightfoo
landed and discharged her relief car
go there was, until some years ago, {
huge post which marked at that poin
the boundary line between Missouri
and Kansas. On the Kansas side O.
the post was the word Freedom; or
the Missouri side was the word t"Slav
cry
"Of course the railroads killed bust
ness on the Kaw river, but if no rail
road had ever been constructed the
kaW as navigable stream was
doomed. 1t had the sand, but tha
was about all. Most of the time there
was not enough water in the course

After the Heart Has Stopped Beating

The restoration of life after the
heart has actually stopped beating is
another miracle of modern surgery,
though the claim cannot be made that
this accomplishment is of much gener-
al value. In cases where the patient
has collapsed while under an anes-
thetic, the chest has been hastily op-
ened, hand thrust in, the still heart
grasped and manipulated, and circula-
tion thus artificially kept up till life
futters slowly back.-Leslie's Monthly

The experiments recently made at
Cornell University prove that the
beautiful rays from the gas, acetylene,
are as effective as sunlight on the
growth of plants, and this may soon
become subject for serious consider
alton by all progressive cultivators of
the soil. ~ -.
The results Of the experiments are
astonishing, inasmuch as they show
conclusively the great increase OF

light not even buds were apparent.
.Acetylene is already taking its
place as an illuminant for towns from
a central plant, for lighting houses,
churches, schools and isolated build
ings of all kinds, and it is being used
successfully for many other purposes.
A striking and important feature Of
acetylene is the ease and small ex-
