LIVES ON WOOD DIET.

IT IN FINE-CUT FORM.

London.-Without wishing to star

able that Newton wolld have discov
cred the laws of gravity by othel
means if the legendary apple had no
happened to fall at that particular
moment He could hardly have avoid
ed doing so, for instance If he haC
taken up skating.
In the case of John Maginn, how
ever, sometime inmate of Mile-end
workhouse, and, like Newton, prophet
Of new discovery, fate seems to have
played larger part
For had John Maginn not been put
to work in the woodshed of the work
house it is conceivable that his great
discovery might have been delayed for
some centuries-nay, perhaps never
have been discovered, and Maginn
been spared many severe internal
pains which he must undoubtedly have
suffered In the early experimental
stages.
But these be vain imaginings while
the great discovery is still unan-
nOunced.
1t Is that Mr.. Maginn has found that
it is possible for the human body to
subsist on wood. Perhaps in the
somewhat unusual circumstances his
own words on the subject are best.
In letter to the Times he says:
Working in the firewood depart
ment 1 have discovered that common
deal wood is a valuable food and med
icine if cut small and eaten. Brown
bread is not in it for its tonic and in
MIGRATING effect"
At once Leader representative, who
is, by the doctors orders, unfortun-
ately limited to four square meals a
day, posted off to Mile-end, but he was
too late.
The night before Mr.. Maginn had
risen upon a wind Of prophecy and
with tin box of firewood tablets in
his wallet had taken his 4.scharge and
issued forth into the darkling night to
spread his great idea abroad and to
find disciples.
But though he has, alasi gone, there
are those remaining who witnessed the
birth and progress Of the great dis
covery and who can certainly tell some
remarkable stories concerning it.
One or two old acquaintance who
were questioned assert that Maginn's
remarkable powers first came to light
through a strange shortage being no.
ticed In the wood department. Bum
dies OF firewood seemed to disappear
in mysterious way and at the same
time Maginn was seen to be putting
on weight at a remarkable pace.
1t was not, however (at least so the
tale goes), until he was actually seen
slipping some pieces of wood into his
ordinary fare that the real state of af-
fairs was discovered.
After that, so far as the other in
mates were concerned, Maginn became
the human ostrich, the man with the
iron stomach and the whole of the
other Barnum freaks rolled into one.
So far as Maginn himself was con-
cerned, bundles of firewood were what
he really fancied. AS special deli
cacy nothing pleased him better than
a piece of old oak wainscoting or a
sandwich, though the latter
frequently gave him nightmare. And
now Mr.. Maginn is in the workhouse
nfirmary, where he will receive the
careful attention of the medical staff.

The snecinI Meetinr.

a series of special meetings has
been planned for this winter, as for
several years past. They will begin
on Tuesday. Feb. 8, and will be
conducted by Rev. W.HHubbard,
DID, pastor of the First Presby-
terrain Church of Auburn, n. Y.
The name of Dr.. Hubbard will be
familiar to some in Berea, as he
preached the Baccalaureate sermon
at commencement time some years
ago, and made a most pleasant
impression. He will be welcome
back to Berea by all who heard him
before. The meetings will be truly
union in character as have been those
of years past Everyone is invited
and urged to plan to attend and to
get the greatest possible personal
blessing. The people of God in
Berea are especially urged to make
these meetings a subject of constant,
earnest prayer Let us pray for
DR.. Hubbard, that he may receive a
special eduement of power from on
high for this work. Let us pray for
ourselves, that we may be in
readiness to cooperate with the Lord
and his servant. Let us pray for the
unsaved, that their hearts may be
growing tender, and that as many as
possible of the residents of Berea,
and of the students of Berea College
may find salvation through Jesus
Christ. Let us pray that Satan may
be restrained from in any way pre-
venting the success of our efforts.
While God can save at any time,
all Christian history teaches that
there are certain times when it is
wise to put forth extraordinary
efforts. Let us listen to the inspired
prophet of Israel. Sow to yourself
YES in righteousness, reap in mercy;
break up your fallow ground: for it
is time to seek the Lord, till he
come and rain righteousness upon
you. Hosea 1912.

At this season Of the year almost
every child on the street has a bad
cold and too many adults are like
wise afflicted Many think that this
is a necessary result Of the winter
weather, but let us consider this.
To begin with colds never happen.
They are always caused by some ex-
posture which could have been pre-
vented had it been forseen. Sud
den and extreme changes in the
weather catch one without oyercoat,
rubbers or umbrella, and a chill fol
lows. Exposure of the neck or head
to a draught Of cold air, or sitting in
a hot room and then going out into
the cold with insufficient clothing are
frequent causes. Many intelligent
people have the habit of going out
in all sorts Of weather bareheaded.
This habit is almost sure to bring
serious results in colds and chronic
catarrh. The most common cause Of
colds is damp feet. Ia place like
this where there are no sidewalks and
few crossings it is absolutely mecca
sary TO wear rubbers If one is to es-
cape damp feet and then serious con
sequences. The notion that thick
soled shoes can replace rubbers is
bad and can yield only bad results.
The damp feet habit, we are safe in
saying, is directly responsible for a
large majority of the many cases
of catarrh, acute and chronic, which
are found in these parts. Keep the
feet dry, keep the body, especially
the neck warmly clothed, wear a hat,
and the problem of colds will be
largely solved
A word as TO the treatment of
colds. Our aim in treatment should
be as far as possible to undo the
mischief which has been started.
Therefore when one finds a cold set
thing down on him. he should soak
the feet half way to the knees in
water as hot as can be borne for at
least 30 minutes, open the bowels
with large dose of salts and as he
goes to bed drink a pint of hot
lemonade. Usually this will be sufii.
cient and in the morning the cold
will be gone; if it is not, the family
physician had best be consulted, as
no cold should be allowed to take its
own course.
