The fad has become pretty wide
spread under the leadership OF one
Fletcher, who has given his name To
it, and you will note in many eating
places sober gentlemen solemnly chew
ing away for dear life. They are ad-
yocates Of fletcherism.
Irving Fisher, a Yale professor of
political economy, has inst published
the results Of some experiments made
with nine Yale students beginning in
January and lasting about five months.
The purpose Of the experiments was to
show whether thorough masticaton of
food increased its nutritivc efficiency,
especially its strength-producing eff.
cheney.
The test was vindication of Fletch.
erism. The students continued TO lead
their accustomed lives, mostly seden-
tary, and they made no particular
change in their diet, eating what they
relished. But what they ate they
chewed. They chewed it until it could
not be chewed any more. They found
IN this method increased enjoyment for
the palate, and vastly improved dges-
ton. Furthermore, they found that
they ate less, because they got more
out Of what they did eat than they did
when they were boiling food nearly
whole, and they needed less, therefore.
In June they had, entirely through
preference, reduced their consumption
of meat TO one-sixth OF what they had
at first thought necessary. They were
increased 80 per cent. in their powers
Of endurance, and were able to do
twice MS much physical work, as shown
by the gymnasium tests, as they could
do in January.
This method of getting health and
strength is sensible. 1t is cheap. Try

From the Chicago Evening Post
The Eskimos and the Indians do not.

DR.. George s. Gordon, Of the University
Of Pennsylvania. is back from an arduous
expedition along the little-known Kusko-
kwim River, which flows southwesterly.
and confirms the rumcrs of a people
hitherto undiscovered, supposed to be of
Mongolian in origin. They are named the
KuskOWagamutes.
From DR. Gordon's account. which as
yet is a mere outline. the Kuskwagamutes
are an exceptional, a thoroughly respecta-
bic people. They are clean physically,
which is more than can be said OF the
Eskimos, and clean morally. which could
never he claimed for the Athabascan In
dams. They are kindly, intelligent, and
religious. DR.. Gordon lived several months
with them on the best Of terms
But In spite Of these excellences the
Kuskawagamutes are nearly extinct. Per
haps the secret of their attenuation is
that they have become too good to live
on mundane, ignoble sphere. A race
that insists on keeping clean up around
the arctic circle is much too superior TO
its habitat But II a leaven OF bad habit
can save the Kuskawagamute he need
only wait for the white man. who, as an
example OF the surviving "attest," can

In structure the tail is a gosssmer Of

on the horizon is an impenetrable blanket.

the comet is completely disintegrated and

considerable evidence in support of this
hypothesis Bielas comet. discovered in

turn, split into two parts and reappeared
as curious double comet in 1876. When
It revisited the earth in 1852 the two parts
had drifted away from each other and
were separated about one million miles
Since then the comet has disappeared.
Every six and half years the earth
crosses the track Of that lost comet. Ne

these meteors we see all that Is now left
Of Biela's comet Similarly the great
comet Of 1852 literally lost its head by
breaking into four portions. each Of which

Another link in this chain Of testimony
is presented by the chemical composition
OF meteorites which have found their way
to the earth, a composition which agrees
exactly with that OF a comet.
