 "We. the undersigned medical mon having carefully considered ths sub ject of vegctarlanisn in it's scientific aspects and having pw it's principles to the practical tcst of experience. hereby record our emphatic opinion that not only is tn" practice based upon a truly scientific foundation, but that it is conducive to the best rhysi- cal conditions of human life.
 The diet of vcgctcriauism provides all the constituents necessary to the building mp of the human body and those constituents. as proved. not bN tn" misleading tests ol the chemical and laboratory. but by "XprTciuc" 'f numerous persons living under normal conditions. are at least aa digcstibl" and as assimilablc as th" c"rresp"nd- ing substances obtained from flesh.

Animals Without Moral Sense.

Prof. Schuster asserts that animals
lack moral feeling entirely, none of
their acts being immoral or moral, in
the broad sense, and that they have no
trace of sense Of shame or of honor
Their courage, he declares, is "a mere
impulse Of nature" and of moral cour-
age they know nothing He continues:
And animals have no pride, in the
sense of mans conception Of that
quality. They are not proud OF their
kind, of their kindred, of their indi.
viduality. They neither have an in
dividuality nor are individual. Ami
mails are not proud because they have
no consciousness of the scope OF the
value of their kind, of their enterprise
or of any other form of their capabil-
ity; they are neither supercilious,
proud, nor the contrary, that is,
grieved, wounded or depressed in re-
gard to a possible pride"

disposed of as much business each
year as 9S judges of the supreme court
in New York state, with a population
Of 100000. In addition to this" said
Mr.. Adams, these English judges do
just as much work as the federal
judges in New York state. The OBJ.

FITz SHOWS KNOCKOUT PUNCH.
Ruby Robert Gives Demonstration
Much to His Sorrow.

Ruby Robert Fitzsimmons Is al
ways ready and willing to illustrate
before sporting men just how he
knocked Jim Corbett out at Carson
City with his memorable solar plexus
punch. Not so many years ago his
former manager, Percy Williams, now
well-known theatrical magnate,
asked Fitz to show a number of
friends Just how Corbett> was ami.
hilated. Robert was in fine form
then, as he was training for a fight
at the time.
He promptly complied with the re-
quest by calling upon Reggy Williams
a brother Of his manager, to stand up
and be victim. Reggy, however
had been there before and knew the
power of the Cornishman's blows, 80
he was not overeager to take part in
the exhibition. So he said to Robert
Wait a minute, Bob, until l go and
get stiff bracer, for 1 need courage"
All right" replied Fitzsimmons,
with a grin, but hurry" Reggy
stepped over to the bar, took nip,
and then picking. up q thick board he
slipped 1t under his vest. Then he
came back with the remark:
Go ahead, Bob, but not too hard"
Fftz jumped about, feinting and
sparring off like real fighter. Then
Robert shot out his terrible left and
hit the mark with crash. 1t sounded
like blow on a board fence with
sledge hammer, and, though Williams
was knocked down, he jumped up
quickly and laughed until his sides
shook. Fitz was dancing around on
one foot, with his left hand under his
arm and a look Of intense pain on his
face.
whats the matter, Bob?" asked
Percy Williams, who was next to the
trick
whats the matter?" roared the
angry Cornishman. why, me bloom
ing and is smashed! That funny
brother of yours as sheet Of iron
under his vest!"
Fftz was a mark then for a lot of
guying, but the joke was a serious
one. for his left hand was in poultices
for six weeks.

resulted in a victory for the butchers
by the score of Is to 4. The high school
boys weren't in it for minute, being
unable to make connection with the
curves of young parsons, who pitched
an excellent game, with the able sup
port of Herb Lehmkuhl behind the bat.
George Williams and Dan Murphy were
the battery for the high school team.
The brilliant fielding of John Powers at
short for the butchers was little more
than marvellous, and the way he handled
himself in every play drew applause
from the large crowd of spectators,
which evidently proved that he was the
star player of the game, and to whom
