from her? Ought he to be the final judge,
anyway, in matters that concern herself!

never missed her afternoon drive on

who she was, as she passed by in her
old-tashloned English victoria. and
dressed IN the mode prevalent in the mid
die OF the last century. She was a
charming and gracious old lady, who in
her heydey was a great beauty. Her
husband, member of one of the fam

minister to Austria, and she was Miss

Prof, Fisher on Diet.

With the passing of food fads and ex-
Fermentation comes a resultant group of
facts which the reader may take as
trustworthy and a working basis for his
own life and conduct. For example,
Prof. Irving Fisher of Yale, an eminent
authority, closely connected with DR..
Chittenden and II oraee Fletcher in their
experiments at Yale, publishes some con-
illusions Of his which are we'll worth
remembering. He finds, for example,
that there is "a distinct benefit from
thorough mastication of food when the
mastication is done naturally and not
laboriOusly, with the attention on the
taste and the enjoyment of the food and
not on the mere mechanical act itself"
He goes on TO sag that superior phys
zeal and probably superior mental work
ing power comes from reducing the
amount of protein. This means prac-
tically a reduction in the use of lean
meat and eggs, especially the whites of
eggs" He then cites the high physical
endurance of many who follow vege-
tartan diet. Nevertheless, he adds: Il
am by on means convinced that a strict
~ vegetarian diet is better than diet
containing some animal and even flesh
foods: On the contrary, there seems TO
be evidence that any exclusive diet is apt
to exclude some valuable ingredient and
that the safest course of the average
man is to be moderate rather than ex-
IRENE, although there seems to be no OBJ
lection and maybe some advantage when
one no longer Graves flesh foods to omit
them entirely" Here is a rational work
ing plan from 4 th0roughgoing scientist

ANNUAL MEETING OF OLD SOL
DIERS

The annual meeting of Old Soldiers
took place at Pleasant Green Baptist
Church last Sunday at II o'clock.
The sermon was preached by Rev.
j. G. Fields, the pastor The dis
course was an able one in every re-
spect. 1t was instructive and force
full. He called attention to the Decla-
ration of independence of the United
States and showed that whether we
enjoyed them or not, equal rights
were a gift from God to all men, re-
CARELESS of race|or human regulations.
That the natural inclination of man is
ever to exalt himself and Cypress his
weaker brother He cited history to
show that all nationalities which have
become important had poured out
their blood to support their rights.
He showed that God had given to
every man human rights equal to
every other man, but that it fell to
the man himself to observe them
claim them, take them and honor
them. He showed that God had
sometimes corrected national evils by
war, and for that purpose raised up
many noble men. He gave several
examples, both of ancient and mod
ern time. He urged the young peo
pie to consider more thoughtfully
those who suffered the hardships
necessary to the welfare of future
generations.
