THE DIET OF CONSERVATIVES.
overfeeding Recommended, But Prop.
or Digestion Must Be Assured.

Herbert @. Clapp of Boston, writing
In the Medical Record, says that diet
is most important factor in the
treatment of tuberculosis. A con-
sumptive is much more likely tn eat
too little than too much. Systematic
overfeeding with proper digestion Of
the food are the accepted remedies.
The food must be palatable and well
served and the amount must vary
with the patient and his circum-
stances. The outdoor air will enable
him to assimilate large amounts Milk
and eggs are the best foods to pro-
duce fats, which are most necessary
to the patient. The author advocates
three solid meals a day, with lunches
between of milk and eggs, about three
quarts Of milk and six eggs a day be-
ing taken. Fresh meats are especially
necessary for these patients, but a
mixed diet is undoubtedly the best
borne. Meat Juice is valuable. Pastry.
candy, fried foods and cabbage should
be let alone. Alcohol is not advisable.
but coffee, tea and chocolate may be
taken moderately.

WAS WORTH TWO DOLLARS.
Traveller Reached Destination Long
Before Unolvll Autoist.


A story that is just coming to light
is that Of an interesting experience
which happened to a member Of the
governors party which visited James.
town at the opening of the exposi.
tion, says the Baltimore American.
one day this member became de-
tached from the party and could not
md them again. He hunted about
Tor awhile, and finally decided that
they had returned to Norfolk and
that he had better travel the same
road. 1t was impossible to get a We.
hicle, so he started out to walk. Aft.
er he had gotten down the road a lit
tile way he was Svertaken by an au-
tomobile, and he hailed the driver
with the request to give him a lift.
The latter, not having inbued suffi-
cient or southern courtesy refused.
So the pedestrian trudged along.
The next person to overtake him
was a sousthern negro with a ram.
shackle buggy" For a dollar he
joyfully agreed TO carry the unfor-
tunate one to Norfolk. But a little
way up the road stood the "red devil"
which had so unchivalrously passed
the pedestrian, and under II was its
owner sprawled fiat on his back and
tinkering.

THE MAYOR AND a
z CIRCUS LICENSES

Since the appearance in Marion
of John Robinson circus there
has been criticism, in some circles,
OF Mayor Scherff because OF his
poliev of standing up for a license
fee Of $50.
Disappointment over the fact
that no parade was given by the
circus aggregation was general,
and of course the major portion oil
the blame was heaped upon the
Mavor's shoulders. 1t was he who
was responsible for the ADOPTION oil
the ordinance and it was he who
"stood pat" when the circus repre-
sentative called upon him to try TO
talk him out of his determination.
II is true that large number Oh
BOYS and girls, whose parents were
too poor to purchase tickets Tor
them, we're cheated out OF the eXhl-
bition. 1t is also true that many
persons refused to attend the show
because the circus people refused to
paw the license and give the parade.
This is one side Of the PROPOSE
tion.
1t is also true that early in the
season, when the Sells-FOrepaugh
circus was here, license fee Of
fifty dollars was paid and more than
four times that amount of damage
was done to one of the city's paved
streets. Circus aggregations bring
practically nothing into the city
and take large sums out with them.
Some lines of business, are of
course benefited by the crowds
which always visit a city on circus
lay, but the thousands and thous-
inds of dollars taken away will
more than counter balance the good
lone to business.
1t is nothing more than right
that circus should pay for the
privilege of exhibiting in "a city
~ parading over its streets, and
Mayor Scherff should be universally
for having stood up for
The license fee which is not prohi-
1itive or exhorbitant.

KILLED HER
HUSBAND
Jealous Woman Shoots Her
Husband and Then
Herself.

Wheeling, W. Va, Aug. 20. -
Come up I've killed my husband'
shouted Mrs. VIM. Walker, dressed
in her best clothes, in which she
had arrayed herself in preparation
for death as she leaned from a
second stcuy window of her home
in the heart Of the city, where the
shooting had attracted large
crowd.
Jealous, Mrs. Walker had shot
her husband tv ice, in the mouth
and back when he came home for
lunch Tuesday noon, then turned
the pistol on herself, firing one shot
in her breast.
The husband is dying and the
wife Is seriously injured.

the law and the roads license TO do
business in the state was revoked.
Governor Conner is enforcing the law.
and why should he not enforce the
law? He swore to enforce the law
when he took the oath of office, but
probably the Globe-Democrat would
have him read into such oath" ex-
cept where the law concerns rail-
Iroad.
If state creates corporation can
Iit not fix the terms on which 1t can
do business? And IL state permits
a foreign corporation to do business
within it's borders can It not prescribe
the terms and compel compliance with
those terms? And what requirement
is more reasoable than that the cor
poratlon shall submit its controversies
to the courts of the state? The state
courts are less expensive and nearer
to the litigants. A state acts not
only within its rights but accord
ing to It's duty when II protects its
citizens from the vexation of litigation
in federal courts.
| The Globe-DemOcrat does not dare
to state the issue as It is for then
It would have to admit its sympathy
with the corporations as against the
people. To conceal its bias in favor
of corporate aggression It refers to
the war and appeals to prejgdice But
its attempts will fail Every state
ought to have law like that which
Governor Conner is enforcing an every
state ought to have a governor like
lGovernor Conner. The Republican
readers of the Globe-Democrat in IL
linois and Missouri are just as much
interested as the Democrats in secur-
ing protection from the delays, incon-
veniences an costs OF the federal
courts.
All of these controversies are hast
Iening the day when the rights of
corporations will be defined and their
powers properly limited There has
been confusing of the rights of the
IGo-made man. The corporation has
only conferred rights while man has
natural and inalienable rights. II is
time to protect the God-made man
made giant. The Commoner.

Important TO Ladies

We venture to assert, with
out fear Of successful con-
tradiction, that the practi-
toner of medicine who is
able TO cure a surgical case
without resort TO cutting in
the end, will make more
friends and build up a better
practice than he who is ever
ready to draw the scalpel, no
matter how skillful he may
be. Operations are undoubt-
edly a necessity, and all cred
it is to be given to those who
master the art of operative
technique, but it cannot be
disregarded that every opera
tion is fraught with certain
risks and dangers, and that
until positive method of
avoiding shocks, etc., be
found, the patients will fear
the surgeons knife and will
cling to him who can con-
scientiously offer a less risky
method of cure. The LILY
REMEDIES offers you this
hope. We have cured others
and may cure you. IF we
fail, there is yet time to try
other means. If the surgeon
fails, the end has come and
life has fled. You are invited
to call at my parlors. Con-
sultation and examination
