We presume that those who have
followed the no breakfast plan of eat
ing and think they have been benefited
by il will take exceptions To the state
ment that the death Of Paul Morton
was caused by the effect of an "un-
balanced ration. His brother said
that he ate sparingly, drank and
smoked not at all. Sometimes for
breakfast he would eat nothing but a
grapefruit. and at luncheon sliced
orange and some sweets and this he
claimed Was not enough to sustain a
man that was as active as he. Perhaps
in some cases fasting or partly fasting
may have a beneficial effect. and
doubtless many people eat more than
is good for them. but it would seem
that an able bodied man actively at
work every day must need enough
food to keep up the loss of energy. the
same as the steam boiler must haVu
sufficient fuel to keep up the pressure
and it would seem To be more reason
able to supply the fuel at intervals
rather than all at one time Possibly
Mr.. Murtons' death was not caused by
his lack of nourishment entirely. but
his diet does not seem to be d reason
able one for an active man.

FRENCH HOME LIFE SIMPLE
Extra Work Caused by Visitors, Com.
mon In England and Ameri.
ca, Is Unknown There.

In England the proportion Of men
to women indoor servants is as one
to three or four; in France the re-
verse is the case, parlor maids being
unknown, the one femme de cham
bre being lady's maid as well as
housemaid. The housework-swoep-
ing, busting, etc.-mainly falls upoh
the men servants.
One element entailing much extra
work for servants in England is alb
sent in French house. This is the
staying guest, the succession Of visi-
tors. Outside private hotels and in
the handsome flats Of fashionable
quarters there is, indeed, no room in
Partisan households for friends. The
words "dine and sleep" OF week
end. visits have not found their way
into French dictionaries, nor have
dine and slecp weekend guests yo'
become French institutions.
, T. is easy thus to understand why
three or four servants suffice il

Position.

America is the throne Of the
world. On her east is the greatest
ocean Of the present; on her west is
the greatest ocean Of the future; on
her south the greatest Of CULTS; on
her north the greatest Of lakes. She
can command the trade of the world
in material things; she can lead the
march Of the nations in spiritual
things. writes Senator Albert j..
Beveridge, in Appleton's Magazine.
Let us do both. With more schools
where IT, learning Of man is taught
more chdrches where the word of
God is preached; more nerve and
brain and pure resolve than all the
world combined, let us keep the lead
ership that now is ours and captain
mankind to the practical realization
of humanity's highest hopes.
