RECORD STOP WATCH.
Sensitive Mechanism Marks the Tenth
of a Second.

A we'll known firm Of watchmakers
in Geneva, Switzerland, has recently
constructed stop watch which regis
tiers the tenth of seconds. Hitherto
the smallest fraction of time regis
tered by any timepiece has been the
fifth of a second. and it was commonly
thought that smaller divisions could
not be marked owing to the excessive
ly sensitive mechanism that would be
required. The watch is fitted with the
anchor escapement. and it can be con-
trolled either by hand or by electricity.
1t has been thoroughly tested. and the
experiments have shown that its reg
istration is perfectly accurate.

Ballot Eight Feet Long.

The state secretarys Office Is begin
ming to prepare for the state election
in South Dakota. The officials and
clerks find that the ballot. set in bre-
vier. will be ten inches wide and more
than eight feet long. Such ballot
will be hard to issue and even harder
to vote. If the use of the referendum
continues to grow the ballot will be-
come so cumbersome that many vot-
ers will refuse to take it from the
judges. and the result is likely to be a
light vote on the question of the adop
ton or rejection of laws.

BY EUGENE CHRISTIAN.
Just now the United States is much
agitated over the food question. 1t is
therefore surprising that it required
the influence Of the dollar mark to
cause a great country like America to
seriously consider this great problem.
and even now it Is considered only
from financial standpoint. The ill.,
dictment against the meat trust is that
1t has got all the meat. The pub
lie cry is. I'VE want and must have
meat. but we will be content If 1t
will give it to us cheaper! The meat
boycott that has spread over the ma
ton does not seem to be for the pur-
pose of permanently abolishing the
use Of meat and putting in its place a
cheaper and purer article of food. but
wholly to bring the meat trust to
terms.
The chemical laboratory shows that
meat is positively injurious compared
with vegetable articles containing the
same elements of nutrition. Meat con-
tains only two elements Of nutrition
namely, protein and fat. The best
meat contains but % per cent of pro-
TEN and the average about Is per cent.
while the general average Of fat con-
tanned in meat is about 8 per cent.
The balance Is water and tissue, which
contribute to the body no nourish-
ment whatever. but instead an abun-
dance of uric acid and toxic poisons.
him
pounds makes about two ounces Of
uric acid every twenty-four hours.
When we supplement this with the
uric acid which Is in the flesh of an
animal we are apt to suffer from uric
acid poisoning. which is so prevalent
among nearly all meat eaters. In sub
sisting upon meat. therefore. we are
paying about % cents per pound for
plain water or nearly a dollar pound
for protein and fat. Many vegetables
contain as high as IS per cent protein,
45 per cent fat. to 6 per cent sugar
and about per cent starch. and only
from to 8 per cent water-in other
words. about 95 per cent pure nutri
tion-and these same articles can be
purchased in the open market at from
to 2 cents per pound.
Mistake Of Would Be vegetarians.
The mistake made by those who
wish to adopt a vegetarian diet is that
they discard meat. which is animal
proteids, and do not know how to re-
place this with vegetable proteids.
The body is a chemical laboratory that
merely demands certain food elements,
and nature cares not whether these
elements are secured from vegetable
or animal sources. The following ia
BILE shows the vegetable articles that
will best substitute meat. Many Of
them are higher and some lower in
proteids than flesh, but those adopting
a vegetable diet should exercise some
Judgment III regard to striking a gen
eral balance Of about 10 to Is per cent

just as the animal does. Eating meat.
therefore, involves the question of both
theft and murder. The pittance Of nu-
triton that we succeed In getting from
animal flesh is in many cases diseased
and wholly unfit to be put into the d.
vine temple of the human body. Re
cent investigations have shown that
animals are afflicted with nearly all
the diseases human beings have and
great many specialties of their own.
1t should be remembered that In order
to secure the best results from vege-
table articles they should be masti-
Gated to perfect solution. This will in
sure perfect digestion. perfect assimi-
lation and will prevent overeating,
which Is one Of the cardinal dietetic
sins of the American people.

Another example Of the advancement
of the automobile in the city was
shown yesterday by the announcement
Of Tony Arnold, one Of the oldest, if
not the oldest, cabman in the city, that
he would start a taXicab line in Salt
Lake Immediately. To back up his
statements he went over to the /. J.
Gilmer Auto company and came back
with two CrOXton- Keeton taxicabs in
his possession. Two more were or
dered by the old-time cabman and will
be delivered in thirty days.
Years ago Mr.. Arnold started a cab
stand in front Of the Smith Drug COM
pany store on the corner of Main and
Second streets. Here business in
creased at such a rapid rate that the
line developed into one of the largest
in the city.
Il will have to give way to the prog
ress Of the time said Mr.. Arnold last
night. 81 though that / never would
be argued into getting some of the big
taxiCabs, but 1 have had to either
change my mind or get out of the bust
ness. I chose the former course and
now I intend to have one Of the best
equipped and most up-tO-date lines in
the city. The two cabs which l have
Just purchased are to be put into reg
ular service at once, Two more ma
chimes will come in thirty days, and If
business increases. as 1 expect 1t Will.
more will follow"
The new cars will be known as the
blue C-'Ks." In time Mr.. Arnold in
tends to abandon most OH is horse
cabs and use only the motor type.
