One of the most Interesting facts in the natural
world is the law which governs the selection Of
food by all plant aud animal life. The human
body is wonderful in this respect. Digcsted fe"d

pure red blood that nourIshes the whole body.
But the different parts. even to the smallest

LONDON. February 25-Refusng to
give security for their future good be-
havior the woman suffragists who were
arrested last night while attempting to
reach Premier Asquith to present to him
a petition In the interests of the cause,
were today sentenced to Imprisonment.
Most of the terms were for one month.
An exception was made IN the case
Of Mrs. Pethick Lawrence, who, having
previous conviction against her. was
sentenced to two months imprisonment
Miss Lawless was among those given
one month Imprisonment. Lady Con-
stance Lytton, sister Of Lord Lytton and
daughter of the former viceroy of India,
warned her friends that II they secured
her release by providing security she
would repeat her offense.
Sentences were imposed upon twenty
eight women, including, in addition to the
foregoing. Miss Stratford Dugdale.
daughter of Commander Dugdale and
cousin Of the Hon. William r. Peel. who
was elected Tuesday in a bye-electfon as
member of the house of commons for
Taunton: Miss Solomon. daughter, of the
Catherine Elizabeth Corbett an aristo-
cratic supporter of the movement. All
these women are of high social standing.
Mrs. Lawrence Makes Speech.
Mrs Lawrence made a brief address on
behalf Of her fellow victims. She asked
the magistrate to note that the arrested
women did not belong to the disorderly
or law-breaking class. but were women
of honorable reputation and that many
of them had done service for the welfare
of the community. They would not con-
sent to be bound over to keep the peace.
Mrs. Lawrence declared. and she claimed
that they were entitled to treatment as
political prisoners.
Most of the twenty-eight women sen
fenced took their punishment in dign1f1ed
silence. One asked not to be given the
insulting alternative OF being bound over
because that would be, she said, simply
suggesting that l am a coward, not a
woman at all.
Treated as Common Prisoners.
All OF the women were committed to
the second DIVISION, which in the case

THE WHITE HOUSE AND THE PRESIDENTS
SALARY COST COUNTRY $230,O0O ANNUALLY

During the administration OF Presi-
dent Roosevelt. just closing. more
money has been spent on the mainte-
nance OF the White House and the ex-
ecutive offices than during any pre-
2vious administration in the history of
the country It Is estimated that it
has cost the government approximate
Nv $3.50. ZOO each year. including the
salary, to keep up the
face OF the chief executive OF the
nation during the past four years.
Yet, with the additional sum OF
$3.50. 900. Mr.. Roosevelt will leave the
White House In no better financial
condition than when he entered 1t, his
friends say.
Much has been said recently in re-
gard to the upkeep Of this magnii-
cent old colonial mansion and the
maintaining OF its occupant The act
sual cost has been a much mooted
question. There ID q wide divergence
of views ON the subject, but still more
varied are the opinions expressed az
10 how Handsomely this great republic
should provide for its chief executive.
1T Is urged that owing to his social OBJ
legations and the necessity OF main
tanning fitting style, It has been Inn
possible for any chief executive to
save. anything for the ssrainy day." and
that each and every one OF them has
left the White House as poor as he

House expenses has rapidly been ris.
ing during the past quarter of cen
fury, the upward trend has been much
more pronounced during the Roose-
welt regime. Whether there will be
an increase or falling off during the
term Of William Howard Taft remains
to be seen. The social functions OF the
White House have been doubled un-
der Mr.. R0osevelt's administration, he
having practically used his entire Of
flcial salary for the purpose. Mr..
Roosevelt has been q more lavish en-
tertainer than perhaps any other
President. vet as much as he has en-
tertained he has not been able to
meet the conditions that the social
life Of the capital demands at the
present time. Probably the only reas-
on for, this Is the fact that even the
remodeled White House is not large
enough to meet such requirements.
Even his public receptions have. be-
cause Of his popularity with the mass
es, been greater than those Of any
preceding President.
II Mr.. Taft attempts to keep up
with this pace, he will undoubtedly
come out Of the White House as he
goes in, comparatively . poor man.
Mr.. Taft, however. will not have to
pay for the floral decorations to be
used at his entertainments, as these
viii be supplied from the govern
ment's greenhouses. which are now
kept for the purpose. The music also

nished by the Justly famous Marine
Band.
In 1885 less than $4,000 exclusive of
the Presidents salary. which was
then but $25,000 year. was set aside
for the White House. But for the rs
cal year ending June so, 1909, $229. 430
has been appropriated. This 10 for the
close Of the Roosevelt administration
and the nrst few months OF that Of
Judge Taft.
When George Washington was tirst
elected he announced that he wanted
NO compensation for his services. A
warm discussion arose in Congress
over the question and sums ranging
from $4,000 TO $75, 600 were suggested
- proper. Finally compromise Of
$35.0OO was agreed upon. Until 1879
the salary remained It this figure. n
n no wise grew with the wealth and
increased influence or the country.

what was probably the first bill for
increasing the Presidents salary. This
bin provided compensation of $780,
900, just double what it was at the
time. but it did not become law. It
paved the way, however, for the legis-
lation that followed Those favoring
the increase at present under discus
sion believe that the bill now before
Congress will have the same effect,
even II it Is not passed at the present
session. It is represented by them
that the proposed increase has the
hearty approval Of the American peo-
pie. 1t may seem. they declare, to the
average man that the Presidents in
come is a princely sum, but the Pres
ident is not an average man. He is
the chief executive of 8O.OOO,OO0. or
these SO.OO0,OOO there are many big
corporation presidents drawing a vast
" bigger salary, and they could do
much less entertaining than the Presi-
dent has to without any sacrifice to
their dignity. It is compulsory for the
President to give at least four big re-
ceptions year. each of which costs
him goodly sum.
Compared with the salaries of some
other rulers, and even OF unimportant
potentates Of Europe, the President OF
the United States Is a poorly paid ex-
ecutive. The King Of Portugal. with
but 10000 subjects. receives q com
pensation Of $775,000 a year. The
King Of Saxony. king In name only,
and with no duties Of government, re-
ceives $775.000 year. The Russian
emperor receives $9.000.O00 a year,
besides several additional millions as
head Of the house OF Romanon. The
King OF Italy has an annual salary OF
considerably over $4,000, 900. The
kings OF Roumania and Servia each
get nearly 325O,00O. The President OF
France. who. next to the President Of
the United States, is the poorest paid
ruler. receives $125, 900 year, SIS. 900
more than the salary proposed for
President Taft
tanning the White House. It has been
stated that the salary is but an item.
It would seem to q casual observer
looking over the congressional appro-
priations that the President has moth
ing to do with his salary but to at
tend to his personal wants and desires.
