Offices will Not Go Begging.

If the press reflects public SEN
tlment, and we believe it does,
the fee system is doomed. 1t may
not be wiped out entirely, but it
is pretty certain to be consider
ably changed. And it ought to be.
Let the officers be paid straight
salaries-salaries commensurate
with the services rendered and let
the fees 60 into the state treasury.
Good men will be found to take
the Offices. There Is no doubt of
that. Then the avenues for graft
will be shut off and the people
will know exactly what the public
service costs.-Mansfield Journal.

Sugar as Food.

A noted English physician
would have everybody eat a quar-
ter of a pound of sweets daily.
He says: Nothing is more
strengthening than sugar. 1t is
possible to work for hours after
eating four ounces of chocolate
without feeling the slightest
fatigue. If l had my way, every
soldier In the British army would
be allowed a quarter of apound
of sweets every day. My practice
is to take five or six Jumps of sugar
in every cup of coffee or tea. !"
The old belief was that sweets of
all kinds were bad as food and in
terfered with digestion. But we
know now that they are realfood,
and are especially good for US
when we are tagged out nervous
ly. Children are increasingly ac-
tive, and they always crave some
thing sweet. The craving comes
from an actual bodily need.-New
England Grocer.
