The Things We Eat.

Too much meat Is absolutely hurt
full to the body. Sailors on board Of
ships get scurvy when their supply Of
vegetable food Is exhausted. The d.
gestive organs of the human body de-
mand vegetable food. and If we don't
eat enough vegetables we pay for 1t
dearly.
Nature gave us wheat. and in every
kernel of wheat nature has distrib-
uted iron. starch, phosphorus, lime,
sugar, salt and other elements neces-
sary to make bone, blood and muscle.
EGG-O-SEE is wheat scientifically
prepared. Cooked, and made into
crisp fakes, EGG-O-SEE goes into the
stomach ready for the digestive or
gans to convert it into life-giving sub
stances with but little effort.
EGG-O-SEE eaters are q clean-eyed,
strong and happy lot. The proof Of a
pudding and the proof of EGG-O-SEE
is in the eating. EGG-O-SEE besides
being solid nourishment Is most pal
atable. Every mouthful Is a joy to
the taste and direct benefit to yonr
health. A 10-cent package Of EGG-O-
SEE contains ten liberal breakfasts.
Our friends advertise us. They eat
EGG-O-SEE for a while. They grow
strong. They are well and happy and
thcv pass the good word along.
Next time you send to the grocer's
tell your boy or girl to bring home a
racksge of EGG-O-SEE. Have your
chiloren eat EGG-O-SEE. 1t Is their
friend. They'll eat EGG-O-SEE when
nothing else will taste good.
You try EGG-O-SEE and you can
deduct the cost from your doctors

The Virtue Of Authorization.

A writer in the Evening Standard,
complaining Of the London habit OF

hang the "flend who christened the
Baker street and Waterloo railway

should canonize him. This column

Of the Shepherds Bush and Mansion

turned from his omnibus and took to
the bowels of the earth. The officials
who could build a railway could not
name 1t. The drivers gibe fixed the
word. In the same way the London
public, though quite ready to travel
by the Baker street and Waterloo
railway, wanted to save its breath,
and for the economy of hurried speech
the suggestion was here made-Ba-

taken TO the heart of travellers, and

"what Is a shepherds crook used

The automobilists were out. far out.

bright, delicious blue smiled down On
them. An air perfumed with turf
and flower scents famed their cheeks.
The land was dotted with sheep,
which a shepherd guarded. attended
by a shaggy and wise shepherd dog~

repeated.
She did not know. No n knew.
He called the young shepherd.

The shepherd smiled, and, approach
a sheep, he hooked the crook around
its hind leg, and drew 1t to him.
He hooked another sleeps hind leg,
a~nother's, another's. In a minute or
two he had hooked a dozen sheep.

NOT ALLOWED IN STABLES
Dogs No Longer Considered Good
Companions for Fast
Trotters.

Dogs are no longer the correct thing
as stable companions of horses. Some
years ago every trotter or PAGER OF
prominence. and q good many OF no
distinction, had a faithful dog In its
stall, and there was a sort Of super
stition among trainers that a dogless
horse would not amount to much.
Real champions always had dogs, says
the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Way back in the days of Goldsmith
Maid. that wonderful mare was &C.
comRnied on her travels by a small
Scotch terrier, for which the old mare
had some affection although she was
jealous Of the beast, and when III
Charlie" who took care of the mare
and slept in the stall with her and the
dog, made too much Of the terrier. the
mare woula run the dog out Of the
place without ceremony. And when
finally the dog disappeared for good
the mare did not seem to miss 1t.
: Cats take naturally to horses, and
most horses like cats. The Godolphin
I Arabian, founder Of the English thor
I oughbred family Of to-day, that figures
in Eugene Sues works as the noblest
animal Of his kind, had for compan-
Ton Il cat that slept on the stations
back and fed from his manger. But
In the necessities Of modern campaign
ms cats are too apt to be lost to make
them available for horse companions,
and few are seen, although now and
then n turns up at a minor meeting.
Az Cleveland a couple OF summers
age. a trainer had four tame doves
that could not be induced to leave his
horses and ttrat when the stable moved
from town to another were always
ready to 90 into their cage for ship
ment.
Some trainers object to having dogs
with the horses. Peter V. Johnston,
who has brought out some OF the hest
pags on the harness turf, says no dogs
in his. He had one along some years
ago and 1t made friends with the best
horse in the string. One day the trot-
ter accidentally stepped on the dogs

whereat the cur snapped back ana

John Turner never had a dog along
N all the years he campaigned trot-
teps. Also he steered clear Of black
horses. Not any sable nags in Turn
er's barn after one year of terrifying
experience. He had always known
they were Dad luck, but that season
a Np:run bought Black Frank, q trot'
der that looked like the real thing.
He went lame before he had been in
the barn a day, and then misfortunes
followed one another until finally, Net
tie, the best trotting race mare or that
day, lay down and died. Turner Is
now with the runners, but his antip.
athy to black horses is still rampant.

ADULTERATIoN PERILS.

There is an astonishing interest by
general supply OF what men and wo-
men shall eat. This is shown not only
In the urging of pure food" legisla-
ton, but In the keen inquiry into the
dietary of various classes of persons,
as those indoors who do not take much
exercise, OF old people, and OF infants,
For the sedentary there Is a reverSIon
to coarse nours. 10 grits. and to various
specifics, that are all infallible. the
wonder being that with all OF it there
should be so much disease and death
In the world. For old persons, the spe-
cific now favored is sour milk clabber:
q diet that Is recommended as a spe-
clflc against old age, or II old age has
already begun, a specific for an indef-
mite prolongation of life; and yet there
are those who might prefer death to a
constant diet Of clabber. For infants,
there are so many varieties of pre-
pared food" that 1t is a wonder any OF
them emerge from the period of that
form of maintenance with sound diges-
ton.
And yet, the danger from impure
food is by no means so great as many
would have us believe. Our yegeta bles
can always be had fresh. our fruit in
good condition. our meats are well
cured as a rule, with no deleterious
substances used I'm the curing. Fresh
meats can conveniently be had abso-
lutcly with no "doctorlng." Groceries
from all unwholesome preparations.
Flour is ground right here. and Is not
adulterated at all. And there you are.

Yet IL is we'll indeed To keep this safe
condition. and 10 head off any ten
dency to imposture upon or injury OF
the public.
The place where. according TO all &c

ago there was a descent upon the
wholesale and retail drug stores OF
New York City by the health officials,

found to be adulterated. most OF them

And so, while il is we'll to protect
the people against food adulterations, It
is essential 10 protect them against
drug adulterations. For, the people can
In large degree protect themselves
against any tampering with their food
but they are helpless on the drug ques-
ton. and that Is where they need the
most strenuous protection of the law.

AN ACCURATE ANALYSIS.

This refers. OF course, To the murder OF
Joseph Smith many years ago by a
mob Now the murder OF Joseph Smith
was just a murder by n lawlees mob. It

should be prayed to avenge on the Nation

for the present-day attitude of Joseph

repeatedly that this man came TO Utah

because of the death of his father and
his uncle and the uprooting of the Nor
mon people that ensued during the two
years which followed Beyond the

which characterlzes the manner OF the

colleagues In their missionary labor In
behalf of Seeing America First
Salt Lake Is now the chief American
city. with an issue fairly drawn be-
tween Americanlsm and its ideals on
the one side and non American prac-

THAT'S ALL.

The Deseret News has just finished
pamphlet of advertising under the
title OF the General Authorities Of the
Church OF Jesus Christ of Latter day
Saints" and necessarily the work is to
be construed as having the of1cial In
dorsement OF the presidency
Doubtless because of its form and
the Importance OF the Information
which it contains. II Will be eagerly
perused by tens OF thousands of adhe-
rents Of the Mormon church. Over
each page stands the title Church
Authorities" and yet every alternate
page Is given to secular advertising.
Thus we find that opposite list Of off,
cials and yet under title of Church
Authorities is an advertisement OF the
Utah Light and Railway company.
And intermingIed with the list of
ads. OF commercial institutions. Well
indeed has Joseph F. Smith insisted
that the church Is commercialized and
is TO remain so.
No criticism Is to be passed upon ad-
vertlsers who simply have sought this
method of placing their business before
the reading public; but the taste OF the
church Itself Of the taste of this
church were not already badly known,
might he called into question.
Perhaps the most startling thing In
the book Is page reading as follows,
except for our necessary omission Of
portrait OF the original founder OF the
Mormon faith:

Concerning this particular advertise
ment there is likely to be some amuse-
ment. The use OF the words That's
All' in connection with the word evil
son" indicates that the Mormon au-
thorities and publishers are not averse
to going anywhere for an epigram-
matical title or motto.
What can the Mormon people think
when they find the advertisement of a
book pertaining to their holy prophet
associated with the motto of certain
whisky-and all this done by the au-
thority of the Mormon leaders and
published from the Deseret News
office?
The lot Of vagrant prophets. seers
and revelators would doubtless be will

acter advertise itself on the base of the

as their money greed would be graft

RAs MAKoNNEN's PRESENT.

IJTupNICI
1t appears that IL is the custom in
Abyssinia, when man makes a pres
ent, TO suggest what he would like
given him In return. which explains
why Ras Makonnen. In sending two
fine zebras to the United States De-
partment OF Agriculture. wrote: Il
am sending the beasts as a token of
esteem and good will toward the
American pople. | would suggest that
the return present be In the form of
repeating rifles or cannon OF the latest
pattern" At the current price for
zebras Ras Makonnen cannot expect
much In the way OF artillery In return
but IT will be interesting to see how
the United States Government handles
the rather delicate situation which has
arisen through the guileless Abyssini-
ans Ignorance of Western etiquette.
