MR. rArr As 4 JokER.


 Secretary Taft is evidently seeking te displace Mark Twain as a humorist. In one of his college talks at the Yale exercises few days ago he indulged in this kind of rubbish:
 sThis is d non-partisan injecting. As yet the party to which have the honor to belong has not indicated a manager. ager, should have been advised to husband my resouprces in the presence of such a meeting. But as politics has aiumnus from Scotland has expressed some dificlty in determining the dit- erence between a Republican and delicSteiy' Sid i referencs has indicated the taste of the Democratic party. beg to advise our youngest alumnus that the term Democrat is mere histor- ical description.
 Now, why should Mir. Taft have broken up the non-partisan character of that meeting by referring to parties at all if he was strictly honest with his audience. And Furthermore, why should he have thought it proper to disclaim that his party has a mana ger. Such a disclaimer is ludicrous in view of the fact that President Roose- welt Is as much owner and manager of the Republican Party as if it was branded .'my persinal property, T. R." Once upon a time there was political meeting in Alabama, which was con- trolled by the friends of a then local favorite. That meeting resolved that ---aMr. - is a whale-and resolved secondly, if there is anything bigger than a whale, he is that" This is about what the Republican Convention at Chicago said about MT. Roosevelt in acts if not in words.
 MT. Taft. too. made the mistake in the above utterances of undertaking his opponent. Possibly things may so shape themselves that the Democrats will unitediy oppose him and if they do, he will find that the term Democrat is more than "a mere historical deseript- ion." Over in Georgia a few months ago when 1t was first suggested to contest Governor Smiths reelection, and the name of Joseph M. Brown was proposed. those close to the throne rid- iculed the idea. Governor Smith went to the extreme Of pronouncing 1t a joke and declared that he didn't expect to leave his ofice to mack canvass He soon changed his mind, however, and after a most active speaking tour in every part of the state. he found the joke was a gigantic reality. and that he will have to slip down and out st the expiration of his term. It Is not always safe to underrate your op- ponents.

by eating less meat. As a people we eat too much meat. and especially Is this true of the summer season. In the spring. summer and early autumn when fruits and vegetables are plentiful and cheap there is not only no occasion for eating much fresh meat but it is not best to do so. Cutting out large DOT ton of the beef, pork and mutton is best for people of this climate from any point of view, and for both phy- sical and financial reasons.
 This is not intended to be either A medical or dietetic homily. but a plain statement of fact. Exhaustive experi- ment and observation have shown that 1t is best for the health of the people. and especially those who pursue se- dentary occupations. to largely reduce the consumption of animal food dur ing the sweltering period now on us As we have said. vegetables are p'en- tiful and cheap and almost all of them agree with the average human. Not every one relishes or enjoys the same vegetable but in the great variety to be had at this season each person may find something suited to his or her taste and digestion. and be the better for 1t. If little good bacon is added it will be just as healthfui, if not more so. and the cost will be far less.
 Not enough attention is given to fresh fruits in this country. They are not always as cheap as might be wished. but all of us know, if we have made use of our powers of observation, that vast quantities of fruit are al lowed to rot each season. There are many who are well able to eat fruit sven at high prices. and all could save money and be benefited by consuming more of 1t. There may be meat trust. and probably there is. and the best way to put it out of business is to buy less meat. If those who are cornering the supply cannot sell 1t at their own price they will be forced to come down from their high figures and let con- sumers have a living chance. If the psop1e will discard fresh meats as far as possible the lessened demand will lessen tho cost Tn short, more fruit and vegetables will be better for the health and the pocket and will put spoke in the wheels of those who act on the principle that people must have fresh meat and will pay whatever is demand ed. If this is not good doctrine where in is it lacking?
