Our Bodies Are Machines.

How many people. wonder ever pause to consider that their bodies are merely machines to do work, furnaces In which necessary fuel is burned workshops in which wornout parts ale supplied and storerooms in which fuel and food are laid away for use wher needed! Further, like any other piece of apparatus. the body works better under certain circumstances. It's fires burn better with fuels of certain sorts. mixed in certain proportions and it cannot keep in perfect condition unless Furnished with proper materials. Man thinks he eats because he Is hungry. he really eats because his body is cry Ing out for building materials with which to repair the waste that is a. ways going on and for fuel to keep 1t. self warm, and it Is rather 'flnicky" as to the supply 1t wants for each oi these purposes. At pinch 1t can use almost anything digestible for either but 1t groans and complains and pun. ishes Its unfortunate possessor if it Is not properly treated.-Crittenden Mar. riott in St. Nicholas.

Orawina Room.

A curious and regrettable revival of tho word draw" in the sense of with. draw" occurs in drawing room." Here the original meaning of the word is lost because of It's lamentable pronun- citation by the uneducated Nobody. hearing 1t mentioned as "droyins room" at its best or as "droring room at Its worst" would suspect 1t of being a room to which to withdraw for relax alton. Most words of the kind, though. have no better claim to our admiration and many have a worse one to our sense of language. "Parlor" is an ugly growth from the old monastcrial 'par loir,' or room where speaking was a, lowed, and "boudoir." that early Victo rian expression of gentility, began b, being a room to sull in. Sitting room is a strange instancr of the confusioh of cause and effect. and so is ''livinc room" We come back to drawing room" as to honest words, at least-- London Notes and Queries

NHlCaSO, Md! i.-Many young cOu- pies and others not so young, but none the less blissful, with clothing that sheds rice and with trunks bear ing the usual humorous placards are arriving ill Chicago today to join the famous Honeymoon special" j" which will leave tomorrow for thir- " days tour of billing and coong and goo-gooing. The excursion will be personally conducted by Dan Cupid and will travel over the Northwest ern, Southern Pacific and Union Pa clfic lines. Almost the entire passen- ger list is confined to newly-weds, al though few reservations have been accepted from couples who have been married some time but who are still violently in love with each other and who have never taken honeymoon tr1p. No reporters, unmarried folks or other critical persons will be al lowed to interrupt the dream of bliss or mar the radiant glow of happiness Which is expected to permeate Cupid's special. s. A. Hutchinson, the rail- way tourist manager whose brain evolved the happy idea of honey moon excursion, declares that the tFaln Will be the most luxurious in

 Every care has been exercised in the sale of tickets, and only those who have the blissful appearance of the just-marred or about-to-be have
 been allowed to spend their money at the box office. Newspapermen and other curious outsiders who have
 tried to get on by various subterfuges ] nave met with stern rebuffs, although one reporter, in his enthusiasm and self-abnegation, offered to get mar rled and become real honeymoon CT II allowed to take the trip. The pest and most discreet attendants of the three railroads have been selected 10 wait upon the happy couples, and
