made remarkable progress not only
along original lines, but in competition
with the foreign manufacturers who
have for centuries catered to the public
taste along special lines The array of
American breakfast foods s bewilder-
ing; yet the tendency in nearly every
instance is toward increasing econo-
my and Palatableness. The Govern
ment food sharps have been extremely
enterprising in their investigation of
this side Of the food question, and the
substance of their reports is that these
distinctly twentieth century dishes are
eXcellently prepared and highly nutri-
tious- There is a good reason for the
enormous growth of this feature of the
grocery trade

The Demonstration" Season.

Now we have come to the food dis
play season Now is the platform occu-
pied by the demonstration, the grocer.
the manufacturer of the things that
appeal both to those who live to eat
and TO those who eat to live And in
the front sea+s are the housekeepers,
who, generally speaking, have it in
their power to make the world happy
or gloomy, healthy or dyspeptic.
Once upon a time 1spl..ous ply
stefan gave the world a message in
praise of pie. He raised the point
that those who deny themselves pie
are victims of a false philosophy.
Some people fall into sickness by
thinking too much about it; Others
suffer from Indigestion by imagining
that certain things do not agree with
them. Only the veteran physician
can give a good estimate of the large
number of these peculiar hypochon-
driacs.
A striking proof of the popular de-
fusion illustrated by these cases Is the
effect produced by change of scenery.
The man who grOans and grumbles
every day in his own dining room
will have a corking time-if we may
borrow the distinguished phrase-eat-
ing at a summer clearinghouse noted
for its boiled dinners and its frosted
lemon pie. At home it is sgpposable
that the man would die of such fare !;
but down on the farm he shows the
digestion of an ostrich and the genial
fly of a professional comedian.
The food "demonsuator" appeals pri-
marily to the multitude interested in
the science of preparing and improving
the three square meals demanded by
the average human being. In recent
years American manufacturers have

Back to the Candle |

Those who follow the development Of
recent political affairs in this country
must see clearly that the principal
cause of many of the present Difficult
ties lies in an obscure act, insidiously
consummated, whereby the lofty moral
altitude of the tallow candle was long
ago surreptitiously abandoned for the
lower levels of petroleum. In the days
when our statesmen read by candle
light, scandal was practically unknown.
Except for a few land frauds in Geor-
gia, accusations of misrepresentation of
Government funds here and there, the
occasional introduction of a short,
blunt word into debate, an occasional
duel, some assaults upon members of
Congress, and like trifing occurrences,
the course of early national legislation
ran along as smoothly as a love af-
fair between a widow and a widower.
1t must, therefore, be quite clear to
the most superficial intellect that the
prompt rehabilitation and salvation Of
our new politics can only be possible
If we return, at once and for good, to
the modest and reputable illuminant
Of ancestral days. Philadelphia is
about to celebrate her 225th araiver-
sary; all the hidden and anciep. louise
hold devices, tools, and appliances are
certain to be resurrected. So why not
seize again upon the camille molds Of
the past, and by their judicious assist
anee bring back those halcyOn times
and restore craftsmanship TO its pris-
tine repute and erstwhile lofty status
The remedy is simple. obvious, ef-
fective, and cheap. But, holds
there a taIIow-candle trust? Before
we decide finally, let us make sure on
this head, lest in seeking to avoid the
frying pan we fall, so to speak, into
the fire

District Red Tape.

Because a subordinate has recon-
mended some means of eliminating red
tape in the District government, there
is effort to make capital out of the
incident, to the detriment of the Com
missioners. Two circumstances would
provide that capital
The winding Of more red tape with
the knowledge of the Commissioners.
The refusal Of the Commissioners
TO accept and consider reasonable sug-
gestions for the elimination of red
tape.
Otherwise, the District Government
is in the precise situation of the more
progressive bureaus of the National
Government.

SERMONS IN SENTENCES.

You cannot make a test of scripture
bore any deeper by twisting It like a
corkscrew.
The more a man vOciferates against
vice the less likely he is to put virtue
into action
What you will make Of a hoy depends
on the promise you can see II his pro
pensites-
Some men seem to think Gods clocks
would all stop If they should forget to
wind them up.
Indicting men OF total depravity is a
poor way of inspiring them to the
divine character.

smart tricks he has one foot already in

The Washington times., 1908-10-01
The Middle West Surrendered.

The fight is rather more than half
over when the Democratic campaign
managers concede that the Middle West
is hopeless, and that if they would
win they must have New York 1t
was only about a fortnight ago that
Mr.. Bryan, talking to a group of
Pennsylvania Democrats at the Belle
-Stratford, told them that he was
elected whether he received any votes
east of the Alleghenies and north of
the Potomac, or not But he urged
that for the sake of making it non
sectional affair he ought to be given
n good representation in the East, also.
Now, how changed the situation
Chairman Mack announces tnat the
fight has settled itself down to a strug-
gle for the thirty-nine electoral votes
of the Empire State, and that the par
ty which carries that State will carry
the Union.
Even in saying this, Mr. Mack ad-
mits that he assumes a good deal; for
he goes on and declares that Jersey,
Delaware, Rhode Island, and Connect
cut viii 60 along with New York. If
he can but carry New York he will
enter into the promised land.
But viii he? Insistance that these
minor Commonwealth are certain to
60 along with New FORK is equivalent
TO claiming that they viii take the
place of Indiana, in case it shall go
Republican.
The fact is that the Democrats have
come rather tardily to recognize that
their hopes of the Middle West were
premature; that they Overestimated
the gains they would make there. They
counted on the family quarrels Of Re
publicanism in Ohio, Indiana, Wiscon-
sin, Illinois, Iowa, and the rest OF the
Western States, TO make Democratic
votes by tens of thousands. They did
not cOunt-they have never counted
during the regime of Bryanism-on
the splendid discipline and essential
solidarity of the Republican army.
Contemplating seriously the question
of adopting Organism as a national
policy, they are turning away from it
and returning to their party loyalty.
There is time enough to settle their
family differences between national
elections; Just now they have a bigger
and more weighty matter to decide;
and they have given indubitable evi-
dence Of purpose to decide for a contin-
uation of Republican rule.
