Trusts and Prosneritx-

One of the stock jeremiads of the day with regard to the enforcement of the antitrust act appeared in a city contemporary. It runs in this wise: There are 1905 holding com panies in the United States. If they are compelled to be dissolved and the law is enforced by the courts they will be divided into 5000 component parts This. it is asserted, would
 upset the business of the country. g
 The assertation requires a more careful differentiation. Such a disso- lution would not upset the business of turning out the products of the vari- ous companies, or of selling them in the market at the prices established by open competition. Each of the 5000 constituents was before the com bination fully equipped for carrying on the actual business. If any of the functions of legitimate business oper- under the combination, one effect of a decree of dissolution would be the restoration of the machinery for do- ing business.
 What would be upset wouldf he the business smethod of control which has the power to make each separate con cern maintain the arbitrary and die tated prices. If we suppose the law tos be so effectively enforced as to destroy the power to ma intain moro pOlistic- prices it would doubtless af- feet stock values based on that power But 1t is to be renaen1 cred that this power WAS illegal when established by the connhinations and has been main tsned in defiance of law ever since Pitt5ourg Despatch

WHAT TO EAT.
Horace Fletcher Says to Take Any
 thinq One Seems to Desire.

With all the signs of perfect health written on his face, and figure, Hor- ace Fletcher. exponent of FIetcherISln, at the conclusion of his lecture at the New Haven '. M C. A., the other night. converted himself into a target for questions on food matters The mind of the audience was a fer.%S one, but Mir. Fletcher came right back each time.
 His idea is to eat anything which the person feels that he or she needs, except such stimulants as tea, coffee, tobacco, etc. lie said that 30 or 10 minutes a day was all the time need ed to take into the stomach all the nourishment required.
 Asked what liquids he is in the habit of drinking, MT. Fletcher said that he drinks nothing but water, all though he sometimes sips milk, in- haIes wine and breathes beer.
 Asked what the proper diet for g baby is Mir. Fletcher said to give it anything it wishes, from chocolates to a piece of bread.
 '.But,'' said an anxious mother, eff a child wants hot bread, Swould you give it hot bread?"
 .'Certainly madam" replied Mir Fletcher. Give the child anything it wants" which caused general uerri ment about the hall.
 The lecture was for the benefit of the Y. w. C. A.. which is working to establish summer home for work ing girls. Through the generosity of MT. Fletcher, who gave his address gratis, the Y. w. c. A. will realize ov- CT $50 from the proceeds of the lec- ture which was largely attended. MT. Fletcher took for his subject, Feed ing for Efficiency,'' and gave a short resume of his ideas and Investigations on the subject of mastication con- cerinlng which so much has been printed in magazines of late. In brief he said that the key to all happiness IS knowing how to eat properly and that to eat properly we must observe certain rules, such as eating only what the appetite demands to eat slowly, chew the food well and to avoid all unwholesome emotions. such as anger. hatred and worriment. not for morals sake alone, but for diges- tons sake as well.

A Gentle Hint.

A certain butcher Is renowned
among his contemporaries for the
quaintness and originality Of some Of
his remarks. On a road leading to q
neighboring parish he one day met a
gentleman who at the time owed him
for some meat. After salutadon the
gentleman remarked:
That's a fine fat dog you have, AL
exander."
"Sae weel he may, sir" was the re-
ply, "for he has an easy conscience
and is DOT o. debt, and that's mair
than you or can say"
The hint was taken, and the butcher
got his money next day.-London An

The Walters Tip,

splitting FIVE dollar bill with a
waiter when you reach a hotel and
promising him the other piece when
you leave If we'll served is a poor
game" said a veteran waiter In one
Of New York's biggest hotels.
"a man tried it on me once, and 1t
made me sore. took pains to serve
him poorly, showing that did not
care for his money. | was so careless
that when he was leaving he refused
me the other half. had him sized
up for a cheap skate, so | pointed out
to him that the piece he had was no
good to him as It was and offered to
buy it from him for 50. He thought
deeply a minute and declined. Then
! offered to sell my half for So. Some
how or other this appealed to him,
and he bought it and seemed happy.
I'll bet he hasn't stopped figuring out
yet whether he won or lost. One
thing he's sure of-he didn't tip the
waiter."-New York Sun.

The Raising Of Rice.

The cultivation Of rice extends back
into the dim past, and there are no au-
thentic records as to when II first be-
gan. Evidence points, however, to the
Chinese having been among the ear
Hest people to cultivate 1t. and such
great value was attached to 1t that In
the annual ceremonial sowing of i'm
portant plants inaugurated by the En-
peror Chinnong so far back in the past
as $500 B. G. the rice had to be sown
only by the emperor himself, while the
four other plants of the ceremony
might be sown by the princes of his
family. In India rice has been culti-
waited from time immemorial. 1t was
introduced at an early period into
Syria, Egypt and other parts Of north
ern Africa. In more modern times rice
has been sown in Spain, France and
Italy, the first cultivation in the last
named country being stated to have
been near Pisa in 146S. The plant Is
believed to have been introduced into
America In 1647, when Sir William
Berkeley raised n crop Of sixteen
bushels from half bushel Of seed.
