Diet and Height.

IL is a brave man who undertakes to
change the physical stature OF an entire
race of people. He must be a man of de-
termination and resources. and supreme faith
in his ability to alter the workings of nat
ural laws. Yet this is what has been pro-
claimed as his present purpose by Baron
Takah OF Japan, a physician OF the highest
standing In his own country. He does not
guarantee that he wiz accomplish within his
own lifetime the material elongation OF the
Japanese frame, but he believes that In the
course OF few generations his people. who
are now the smallest members OF the fam
lily of civilized nations. viii rate with those
of average size.
The Japanese, says Baron Takald. are
sensitive about their inferior size, and are
eager TO adopt any means that will bring
them up to a physical equality with the
Englishmen or the Americans. whom they
so greatly admire. Already experiments
have been undertaken in the direction Of
changing the diet of the navy. with the re-
suit. II not OF adding appreciably to the

The Senate and the Railroads.

The railroad rate question Is to be fought
out in the open Senate. which is the proper
thing. So much gossip plays around the
question and the situation that everybody
is curious. AS all curiosity about so i'm
portant a matter should be satisfied we
have the best possible assurance Of that in
a public debate. when interest everywhere
will follow every move made and word
spoken and vote cast. When debate begins

be no competition In Congress, and nothing

keen interest by scientists throughout the
world. Some anthropoiogfsts have averred
that modern man Is smaller than his proto-
type of the stone age, when there were no
artificial foods and but little cookery. If
all that has been written by scientists may
be believed, the men of old were giants
compared with those OF today. Was this
because of their diet Of meat and their
drafts of ale. and their free. rough life. that
stretched their frames and filled their
lungs with the fresh air of the open fields
and the forests? Has civilization. with its
kitchens and its steam-heated rooms. and
its combining occupations, brought down the
human frame?
The japanese are an outdoor people,
cleanly and dIiigent In exercising their
bodies. Baron TakaM evidently looks to
the diet alone as the possible cause OF the
lack of inches. He must bear in mind
that IL the experiments he proposes to
conduct are successful in adding inches to
the japanese height the Dngiishmen and
Americans may in turn take leaf out OF
his book and adopt that same diet. and
SO, perhaps. themselves grow taller. VIII

That would be better than warfare.

relied too much upon patronage. That
reed will not do to lean upon. II Is doubt
full at best. but positively dangerous after
a little use. Those who are rewarded in
time grow indifferent or ungrateful, while
those who are disappointed become active
enemies. And SO on.
Now. as a matter of fact. did anything

of change. The people were stirred up in
favor OF change, and change was de-
creed. That. In all probability, tells the
whole story.
The man who won the nomination is rep
resented as a good lawyer. a good speaker,
and of many personal deserts. If he Is not
