"Bein' Kind to Mothah. /"

The daughter of banker attend

following story of an Englishman she
met during recent trip to Mexico.
The Englishman became acquainta
ed with the American party while
they were all guests at winter ho-

American girl proposed any trip the
Englishman Immediately begged to
be made one of the party. He was to

nearby mountain. After the Ameri-
cans were ready to start they had to
delay some fifteen minutes awaiting
their guests arrival. When he did

What he said was:

a Victorian Anthology.

One discovers already In her two
qualities which she retained through
life and which struck those who knew
her personally in her later years all
the more because they seemed at
first sight to be hardly compatible
qualities. One was a strong personal
pride and sense CT the dignity Of her
position. She was not naughty, much
less arrogant. But she was pene-
trated through and through with a
sense Of what it meant to be head of
the United Kingdom and the British
Empire. Yet although this feeling
was added to her own high spirit
she would have been deemed high
spirited woman even in private sta
tion--it did not in her bear the fruit
OF vanity. She was not vain. She
knew her oYn Intellectual limitations
and never tiled to make a figure in
fields for which he was not fitted. II
one were to make a comparison at
all between persons whose surround
ings were SO different one might in
comparing her with Queen Elizabeth
observe that she was quite free from
two Of Elizabeth's salient faults. per-
sonal vanity and faithlessness. Truth
fitness and honor we're the basis of
her character and as she was above
deception herself, so she had a hor-
ror Of deceit in others. She thought
that international policy ought to be
straightforward and sometimes re-
monstrated against courses of action
which seemed open to reproach on
that score.-James Bryce in North

LEMON JELLY FOR GAZE.

Take the yolks of three eggs, the
juice and rind of one lemon, quarter
of pound of butter, half pound gran
ulated sugar. Put. into a skillet on
the fire and stir until it becomes
thicker than custard, then stir in the
whites beaten to froth. AS soon as
this comes to boil, take it off and
stir until cold. When quite cold put
it between layers of cake instead Of
Jelly. It is excellent also in puff
paste. Cover the custard with the

: "FLETCnERICM. I
Saaae000o0a0oNoeaaa000oee

This is word which has been
coined to denote a peculiar dietary
idea originated and advocated by Mr..
Horace Fletcher. 1t is a system Of
dietetics which differs from all others
in that it takes little or no account
of the nature of the food, but con-
Germs itself entirely with the manner
of eating. 1t is simple in form, but
tedious in the extreme at least to
those who do not practice 1t con-
stantly-in it's execution.
Mr.. Fletcher, is an avowed enemy
of the universal habit of sitting down
to three meals a day as a routine
practice, and insists upon the neces-
sity of eating only when one is hum
CRY. But this is only by the way, for
the essence of his system is thorough
masticatioD-not thorough only, but
absolutely complete. One must chew
and chew and chew again every NOR
sci of food taken into the mouth until
it is reduced to an impalpable and
tasteless fluid, which then slips down
without any conscious act Of swallow
ing.
Grand results in the way of bodily
and mental vigor are claimed for this
system. Those who practice it are
said to enjoy absolute health and to
possess great strength and powers OF
endurance Mr. Fletcher himself,
who is now nearly sixty years old,
is gaining prodigiously in muscular
power and in the ability to endure
great physical strain, although he as
serts that he is not in training and
that he takes no regular and system
attic exercise.
In a series of tests scientifically APP
piled at the gymnasium of Yale Uni
versity, he recently made record
one hundred per cent. better than any
previously made by trained athletes
of half his years Naturally he and
his followers assert that this is the
direct result of his system of mastica-
ton. Others explain it differently.
His record in this respect is so far
ahead of that made by any other per-
SON. WHETHER al dtul6LS VI d lOl1OWSA
of his system, that the most reason
able explanation is that it is due to a
personal peculiarity-that he is a
physical genius, as Mozart was in
music, or Napoleon in war, or Shakes
peare in literature, and that his
dietary system has only served to de-
velop his already surprising powers
of endurance.
His excessive mastication makes
him very abstemious, for in slow eat
ing hunger is appeased by much
smaller amount of food than when
one bolts his food. Most persons cal
far too much, and all excess of food
puts a tax upon the vital energies
Thorough mastication is good, but
excessive mastication deprives the di-
gestive organs of their necessary
stimulus, and so is an error Mod
Grafton is what should be practiced-
moderation in the amount of food
and moderation in it's mastication.

city and William Howell, killed on

kee train upon which the young men
are supposed to have ridden from
Buffalo part way to Davenport would
be present, but they were not. and it
was given out that if they were to be
examined someone interested would
have to pay certain expenses which
it was said would be entailed. There
fore another adjournment was taken
in order to ascertain whether l. H.
Buffum, father of one of the victims,
who had requested that the story of
the Milwaukee crew be included in
the record might be consulted. The
trainmen lie over at Nahant and the
expense, of securing their presence,
if there is any, will be light, so it is
probable that arrangements will be
made to have them testify, though it
seems rather strange that their pres
ence. if of any value to the coroner in
his efforts to shed full light upon the
case, should not be provided for at
public expense.
