Learn What to Eat.

There are about a dozen different
kinds of tissue cells in the body,
each one requiring a special food,

tie other tissues, which are almost

The Future of the Pacific.

It's generally conceded, I be
lieve, by the best and most far
sighted minds, that the greatest
world trade of the future IS to be
across the Pacific. For centuries
trade centered in the Mediterranean
with the result that the largest and
most important cities of that time
were formed on the shores of
Southern Europe and Northern
Africa. The discovery of Amer
lea, then a wilderness. conferred
trade later in the Atlantic, and the
most important cities of the world
then grew up on the shores of
Wester; Europe and Eastern
America. So the cities of the Pa
cifc coast of America in time will
probably be in proportion to the
trade across the Pacific. and the
trade across an ocean, other things
being equal, is in proportion to the
number of people who live along
its borders.
To-day the Pacific coast of the
United States has about one-twelfth
as many people as live along the
Atlantic seaboard; yet the shores
of the Pacific are many times rich
er in natural resources than are
those of the Atlantic. There is
hardly any comparison between
the sterile hills of New England
and the garden valleys of Wash
ington, Oregon and California.
California alone is, broadly speak
ing, twor-hirds the size of France,
and is easily capable of supporting
20, 100000 people. France sup
ports 40, 900, 1000. Along the lower
half of the western seacoast, for
hundreds of miles, there is but
one world harbor- San Francisco.
This fact alone insures to the
Golden Gate a city as large as
Paris, or even larger. It may be
San Francisco or Oakland, or any
other point on the great bay; in a
large sense it matters not what the
local point or name is, or will be.
The important fact is that at the
Golden Gate there is to be an
American city of from two to FIVE
million people. The growth of
this city-or of any of the other
cities on the Pacific coast-will
not be sudden, but it will be in
exact proportion to the pressure of
population in America, the awak-
eniug of Asia-as Japan has
awakened-and the development
of other Pacific shores.-Chaucey
Thomas in Success Magazine. "
