Our good old friend in these times
OF the altitudinons price of cxistcnce,
the potato, Is now the subject OF Sc
verc condemnation b. Or. I. S
Hunt, of Cleveland, Ohio. lie says:
Cut out the potatoes. They are the
cause Of many of the Ills from which
humanity suffers and are the foes alike
to long life and good temper. Persons
who wish to be healthy in body and
sunny and alert in mind, especially
those leading sedentary lives. should
never eat them. They cause what Is
known rs Starch digestion" We
don't believe 1t. The Irish folk eat
hardly anything but potatoes in the
old country and they have neither
short life nor bad temper. But can It
be that the onion is TO be the last

to allow the rails to be covered with
several inches of mud, thus preventing the

eral hours of strenuous work before the
car was finally placed back on the rails,
and meanwhile traffic on both trolley
lines was completely blocked. The de-
