the danger, as shown by A. w. Brown

prison and police court records con-
clusively reveal.
Booze In the Form Of Beef.
The poisoning Of mind and body
hence the intoxication resulting from
overindulgence in meats, is very sim
stoned by alcoholism. It is what Mr..
Fletcher describes as taking booze in
the form of beef"
According to his philosophy, there is
as much evil in sfood drunkenness"
as there is in alcohol drunkenness.
For instance, he states that ''the body
throws off the effects of alcohol drunk
enness much easier and more quickly
than those Of food drunkenness, and
in the latter form Of intoxication the
dangers from uric acid are probably
greater than in the former"
But the reader should not assume
from the foregoing that the great au-
thor of "The A B q Of Our Own Nj
triton" and '"The New Glutton or Epi-
cure" ETC., is an exponent Of vegeta-
rianism. II do not subscribe to the
many isms," he smilingly told the
writer. But he is an opponent of all
immoderation, whether the food be
the best or the most injudicious in the
world. He subscribes to the following
catholic doctrine:
It isn't what one eats; it's how one eats.
There is not a thing which cannot be
eaten if it is eaten rightly
| There should be no restriction on the
! eating whatsoever. This is not fad at
all. I simply believe in following what
nature indicates. If nature gives us
| grinding teeth they are to grind with.
! When am hungry know that nature
| is telling me to eat. When I am thirsty
I drink. When one is sleepy the logical
! thing is to SO to sleep.
| There is no slavery like the slavery Of
| habit. The thing is to strive to follow
nature as closely as may be and you
| can't go wrong. Eat only when you are
| really hungry with natural, not a forced
| or stimulated hunger. And if you crave

~ UGH was the astounding state
~ ment Of Horace Fletcher, the
~ world famed authority on foods
and feeding, made to the writer
In his last interview given before his
departure for Europe. The originator
of the system, revolutionary in the
world Of matters dietetic, known as
fetcherism or fletcherizing, does not
consider bis claim as to the elimina-
ton Of crime to be at all sensational.
He is habitually and enthusiastically
retiring and conservative in his words
and thoughts. AS patient disciple Of
moderation and founder of the new re-
ligion of dietary righteousness Hor-
ace Fletcher offers logical arguments
and cold facts to substantiate his
statement =
I talked with him for several hours
in his sitting room in the Phipps model
tenement No. 1, in New York's tragic
east side, where this kindly souled
gray haired humanitarian has chosen
to dwell in preference to his costly
marble palace, Palazzo Saibante, on
the Grand canal, in Venice, a palace
800 years old.
t'The effect of a nations food on a
nations minds" said Mr.. Fletcher, els
too easily ascertainable to be under
estimated. While have never made a
point Of naming arbitrarily what per-
son should or should not eat, I have
spoken and written as to how and
when and how much to eat. Persons
who overeat in their consumption of
meats become mentally different from
those who eat normally or who depend
chiefly or wholly on vegetable forms of
diet. Large, abnormal quantities Of
meat as diet are for savagery. They
create an unnatural condition Of mind

Making a Rare Lettuce.

Mrs. Francis G. NeWlands, niece Of
Ward McAllister and wife of the Ne
vada senator, has succeeded in grow
ing rare lettuce in the garden of her
country home near Washington. The
lettuce is very bitter, and as salad it
is delicacy to the cultivated taste.
Mrs. Newlands imported the seed
from Italy, and she is one Of the first
to grow this variety in America. The
Newlands occupy the estate which
formerly was the home of John R.
Mclean and later was owned by Ad-
miral Dewey. Mrs. Newlands person
ally directs all work in the extensive
garden. Here she grows large vari
ETY. of herbs. She has cut the garden
in two with low wall Of loose stones
which now is covered with vines of
wild roses, honeysuckle and ivy.

is more readily committed.
"The respective careers of the Indian
tribes Of the PueblOs and the Apaches
afford an Illuminating comparison. The
Apaches were notorious as devastators,
warlike ravagers, merciless slayers.
They weres most ravenous eaters of
meat.
'"The Pueblos were home builders,
dwelt in established villages. They
worked industriously They titled the
soil, peaceful agricultural people,
and their tribe exists today in mate
rial numbers. The Pueblos have al
ways been moderate in their eating.
Consuming very little meat, they have
subsisted for generations on different
kinds of grains and other vegetable
products.
''In Japan during the Tokogawar Pc
riod Of about 800 years the simplicity
of the diet and life Of the nation
found marked reflection in the Grim
inal records of the country. The mod
crate diet, consisting chiefly of rice,
fish and fowl, was responsible for the

Those 5000 cases were principally

meat eat it, but don't overeat, and eat it
rightly.
Eating rightly is to cease eating when the
appetite ceases to call for food; to masti-
cate thoroughly, chewing the food scores
Of times if necessary to mix it so COM
pletely with the saliva that it will be
swallowed in semifluid, practically invol-
unfairly; to get all the taste out of liq
uid food; to stop eating the minute the
saliva stops flowing freely, resting your
appetite before it gets tired; to eat only
when you are cheerful. for you won't di-
gest enough to make it worth while.
Don't eat when you are sad or when
you are mad, but only when you are
glad you are alive. And that is all Of
fetcherizing.
"Cure Intemperance by Drinking"
Mr.. Fletcher makes another startling
assertion-one that has well defined
relation, moreover, to the influence of
diet in crime. He says:
"Whisky can be taken in seemingly
harmless form and in such manner
as to cure the craving for drinking in
excess, thus promoting temperance
The food scientist relies on the eff
fects of holding the fluid in the mouth
to thoroughly insalivate it. so that the
muscles governing the swallowing i'm
pulse will sooner or later send it down
the throat automatically or involun-
tarily.
ct will be difficult without actual
demonstration" says Mr.. Fletcher, Ito
convince the advocates of total absti-
nence that any whisky can be taken in
a seemingly harmless form, but it is
true that thorough insaliyation of beer,
| wine and spirits until disappearance by
| involuntary swallowing robs them of
their power to intoxicate, partly be-
cause appetite will tolerate but lit
| tie.
GAS a matter Of fact, whisky taken in
! this analytical way is sure means Of
breaking up desire for it, and it is an
excellent protection in drinking as well
as eating. Many Of our test subjects
have been steady and some have been
heavy drinkers, but persistent atten-
4 ton has cured all of them Of any de
sire for alcohol, and in time it surely
!, leads to complete intolerance of it.
ut is also true that, taken in the
way suggested, the body refuses to
tolerate more than sips and thimble-
fuls of these liquids ard then only on
rare occasions, so that the epicurean
habit is the best possible insurance OF
temperance

or the dietary evils OF the hour IN all I
lands. He pron0unces the late Premier |
Gladstone's rule Of chewing every
mouthful thirty-two tines as based
on false theory. t'The number of times
food should be chewed varies accord
ing to the nature of the food. Thirty
two chews might do for some sorts of
pabulum, but others might require
300 or 400 to prepare them for involun-
tary swallowing
Saving Millions For the Public.
The tremendous campaign Mr..
Fletcher is waging against interna-
tional dietetic profigacy has vital
economic side. Under his system the
amount eaten by the individual Is so
much less in amount and cost and the
increase of the efficiency of the indi-
vidual is so markedly increased that
all classes Of persons can add to their
usefulness while reducing the cost Of
sons following the teachings of ''the
man Of many chews'' today it is esti-
mated by recognized statistician that
Mr.. Fletcher. in enabling them to cut
down their food bills 40 to 60 per cent,
has brought about saving Of over
$20,000,000 year in the United States
alone. And his propaganda has spread
wider proportionately in foreign coun-
tries than in America because Of his
long residence in Italy.
Another competent statistician is

than 100000 families are saving from

Reeds, Taylor and Weyman, were
formed into an eating club to test Mr..
Fletcher's claims that he could in
crease their physical endurance
through proper mastication, many pro-
fessors scoffed. Yet at the end Of the
test period Irving Fisher, Phi. D., pro-
fessor of political economy at Yale,
wrote a voluminous report, in which
