DOGS DO NOT HAVE SOULS.


New York, Jan. S.-"Do dogs have
souls?" was question put by man
in the audience at Cooper Union last
night to DIR. Lyman Abbott after the
latter had explained his conception
OF immortality.
DR.. Abbott thought a moment and
then replied: 81 don't believe that
dogs have souls. There il a sharp
distinction between animal life and
human life. Where there is a life
without faith and love, such as a HUI
man being possess, there can be no
SOUL
Then youth arose in the audience
and declared that as most of his time
was spent on earth in work, he would
like to know what were his prospects
OF a job in the next world. DR.. Alb
bolt confessed he did not know.
DR.. Abbott then gave his opinion
Of hell. II would rather be mortal
and have the right to Immortality,
than to be immortal and not deserve
it. He'll to me would be to live with
people forever who had the right to
immortality but did not deserve it."

said, according to the Examiner:
Candy has the same influence on
the blood as alcohol. 1t is slower
in action, to be sure, but alcohol is
produced in the system and stimu-
lates the blood as whisky or some
other alcoholic stimulant.
acids impede digestion and are to
be used only as cleansers Of the sys-
tenn. When one has eaten very SUBJ
stantially of proteii, such as lean
meat, one feels craving for acid.
Acid serves as an eliminator, ald the
proper way to satisfy craving pro-
duced thus is to make the next meal
