HOW TO EAT IN
 THE SUMMER TIME

From the American Medicine.
 What to eat and how much in hot weather Is always a vexIng question: Formerly doctors held that when 1t is hot one should eat less. This Is just as foolish as trying to run a steamship on less coal in the summer than In the winter
 The need of good nutrition in the tropics'' says the writer "has been ac- cepted as a matter of course by those who have Investigated the subject first hand, yet it is amazing that textbooks still repeat the old baseess dogma that tropical residents should cut down the diet, particularly the proteids.
 Hans Aron of the Philippine Medical school, by careful painstaking investiga- tion of native diets. shows that a mat ter of fact the nitrogen and number of calories are practically the same as in cooler climates. when the native is not starved by poverty. Consequently, in man, who varies his protection by cloth- ing, there is not a marked difference in his combustion of the north when he re- tains body heat or in the tropics where he radiates it. Inside the clothing there is a tropical temperature after all. As an actual matter of observation Malays and Europeans in the tropics use prac- tically the same amount of oxygen as Europeans in cold weather in Europe. Cutting down the diet, therefore, means starvation.
 "Aron also shows that the nitrogen in- take is practically the same per kiogram of bodyweight, making due allowance for work done. In time, 1t may be possible to purge dietetics of it's nonsense, but from the way present delusons are kept up 1t will be a very long time.
 "Diet fin hot weather is another sub ject on which there are dangerous popu- lar and professional delusions. Without the slightest evidence the alleged experts are advising people to cut down the diet, irrespective of the amount of work done.
 'The hard worker must take in as much fuel in summer as winter or live on his own tissues. The only man who can afford to cut his diet Is he who cuts his work with the hot weather-and that | means only those who can afford leisure, not the vast majority whose busy season is in the summer. The building trades and many other outdoor employments | shut down in the winter and the laborer needs less food. like an idle ship at her ! dock, yet our experts tell these idlers to eat more simply because it is winter. ] "The layman is now saying that diet
 etists must be cranks or they wouldn't
 be dietetists. Some of them say eat reg ularly three times day, others say eat only when hungry; one says eat nc breakfast. another advises that breakfas, be the main meal of the day. One thinks
 we are healthiest meat. while others l find dietetic millennium in fruits and nuts: and others-but we haven't space to give the thousand other absurdities
 What we do know, is that to resist infections man must be well nourshed summer or winter, idle or busy and thu | average healthy man can extract nouri ishment from almost all articles uset as foods, if he won't gulp them in z h"r'-- like a dog or chew them Nike :

Carnegie as a Photographer

From Leslie S.
 MT. Carnegie's Identification with the Military Telegraph Corps Is of interest. Twelve years before the beginning of the civil war he was a lad of 14 living near Pittsburg. He began his work at this time as a telegraph messenger for the Atlantic and Ohio Telegraph company, with James D. Reid, a native of Dun- fermline, Scotland-where Andrew Car negie was also born-a superintendent of the company. Young Carnegie soon de- veloped into an expert telegraph opera tor He has acknowledged this period as the great crisis of his life and, iu fact. the turning point of his remarkable career In April. 1861, when the war broke out. MT. Carnegie, then only 2s years, of age, was appointed assistant general manager of military railroads and telegraphs under his chief, Colonel Thomas A. Scott. Fort Sumpter. was bombarded on April 12. 1881, and the thunder of the enemy's guns had not ceased reverberating over the hills and valleys of the north before the electric telegraph flashed the message from the capital calling for telegraph operators to serve in defense of the Union. That dispatch was worded as follows:
 "Washington, D. C., April g, 1881. David McCargo, Superintendent Tels-
 graph Pa. R.. R.
 ''Send four of your best operators to Washington at once. prepared to enter government service for the war
 fSirned) Andrew Carnegie" 1.-TWO of the four who responded to the cAll of their country were from Pitts burg, Samuel M. Brown and David Ho- mer Bates The other two were Davif Straus of Miffin, Pa, and Richard OBrien of Greensburg Pa.

Plautus wrote the arguments of his comedies in acrostic form. From sim pie acrostics it was easy to proceed to compound ones, in which middle or end letters played their part, and the composition of cryptograms probably had this origin. There is a story of a lover who took half year to concoct an anagram on the name of his lady and then found to his horror that he had riiisspelled her name. His chagrin was so intense that he lost his Nsenses, if he ever had any.

A Deluoc of English

From the New York Sun.
 Tn the last few days there have been seen on Fifth avenue what is an extraor- dinary large number of persons for this time of the year who look like young Enrlishmen. They wear English clothes and little soft hats, and are not actors; inquiry at some of the hotels showed that an unusually large number of per- sons have registered from London and other places In Great Britain.
 One who was struck by these facts put some questions to a hotel clerk of wide experience.
 They are Englishmen who are gettine away from the coronation" the clerk sagely observed 'In all my long expert erce I have never seen so many of them over here at this time of the year. and ] have no doubt many of them are persons wiio have rented out their bachelor quar- ters or flats over there, or least put them in the hands of agents to sublet te Americans or others who are willing tc pay two or three years rent for weci or two's use of them and they have com Z over here to get away from the crowd and look about. There will be more."

Acrostics

Acrostcs are ancient. They exist even in the Psalms and are to be found in many profane writers of antiquity.
 They call for no great exercise of skill and have therefore been very pop ular. Sometimes they were employed as a kind of secret writing, and indeed the term is said to have been first ap- piled to the utterances. of one of the oracular sibyls, whose cryptic words could only be discovered by piecing together the initial letters of h. pages.
