CANDY AND ALCOHOL.
Appetite for Them Almost the Same,
Says DR.. Abbott.

Philadelphia A. C. Abbott,
health commissioner of Pennsylvania,
has advanced the theory that the
appetite for alcohol and the appetite
for candy are fundamentally the same,
the choice being determined by the
temperament of the individual" In
support of this, the fact is cited that
there has been a falling off in the
amount of alcohol consumed per cap
tia during the last few years, and Il
material increase in the consump-
ton of sugar in its varied forms. 1t
is further stated that chemically SUI
gar and alcohol are similar, and their
physiological action is in part the
same, and both to some extent sup
ply the demand for concentrated and
quck-acting fuel for the body. Much
of the prejudice which formerly eX-
listed against the use of candy has

johnny Poe, as he is affectonate-
ly called around Old Nassau's campus,
was born about 81 years ago. He en-
tered Princeton with the class of '95.
and was Immediately put on the
varsity football team. He was one of
the star players of that season.
The next year he entered the col
lege again with the class of 90. He
only succeeded in making his col
legIate history a twice-told tale; once
more he was brilliant success on the
gridiron, but a failure in the class
room. That ended his college career
During the season Of 1894 he
coached the football team of the Uni
versity of Virginia. The next year
drifted into the steamboat business in
Baltimore, and the following year tried
real estate.
His year in the real estate business
was more or less of a touch.and-go af
fair He found, or took, the time to
coach the Princeton football team. In
The chronological history of his occu
pations there is only one entry for
the year 1S97-"coached Princeton
university football team"
The following year the Spanish war
broke out, and Johnny Poe did his
best to tackle the foe, but luck was
against him, as the regiment he was
with never reached Cuba.
This is the chronological history of
the next five years of his life

the case of Mrs. Mary Lawhead, who
as announced yesterday, has left her
sick husband to be a charge on the

That she left her husband with
out panE Of regret is entirely un-

"She and her two boys eleven and
fifteen years of age. respectively, have
had the entire support of the in

"The time came when It was the
