Notwithstanding the enormous
increase in population during the
past three years. coffee shows an
appalling decrease in consumption I"
Then follows q tiresome lot Of
statistics which wind up by show
ing decrease Of consumption in
two years Of. in round figures, two
hundred million pounds.
Here we see the cause for the at
tacks on US and the Brazilian
sneers at Americans who prefer to
use healthful, homemade break
fast drink and incidentally keep the
money in America. rather than
send the millions to Brazil and pay
for an article that chemists class
among the drugs and not among
the foods.

Der, we never announce that coffee
hurts all people"
Some persons seem to have en-
cess vitality enough to use coffee,
tobacco and whiskey for years and
apparently be none the worse, but
the number Is small, and when q
sensible man or woman finds an ar
ticle acts harmfully they exercise
some degree Of intelligence by
dropping it.

m Wiley Scores.

tlAIthough he has been much ma
ligned and ridicu1ed in his efforts to
protect the. health and vIgor OF the
nat on. DR.. Harvey w. Wiley has at
last been omciaIy endorsed in one
OF his claims. Recently DR.. Wiley
made an exhaustive investigation of
saccharine and reported to the de-
partment OF agriculture that its use
was deIeterious to health. tending to
ruin digestion. In accordance with
this report, the department has Is
sued an order that will render the
use of saccbarine unlawful after
July I.
Before adopting DR.. Wiley's report
as to saccharine, the department OF
agriculture submitted it to the Rem
sen board, headed by Ira Remsen of
Johns Hopkins university. After ex-
haustive experiments, this noted
board upheld DR.. wiley's findings.
saccharine has been used as sub
stitute for sugar in more than thirty
classes of foodstuffa and the de-
cision is far reaching. The substance
thus placed under the ban is a dis
tillate of a derivative of coal tar and
is 900 times as sweet as sugar It's

thousands of dollars to manufac-
turers and the order prohibiting It

The Tnllest Building.

Plans have Just been announced
in New York for the tallest build
ing in the world, to be $50 feet
nigh, 3ncluding tower which viii
run up to the 80 story notch.
This edifce. to be erected by F. w.
WooIworth, rises above the famous
metropolitan building by SO feet,
and over the so-calIed '7Singerhorn"
by 1873 feet. And in the memory OF
middle aged men, offices could not
be rented in our cities above the
NTH floor!
The ancients built the tower of
Babel on the plains of Shinar to
reach heaven, but the modern sky
scraper is built to escape the ''hell
of not getting money"
Against the skyscraper It can be
said that it is vampire sucking
light and air from humber neigh
bors, a concrete expression of the
tyranny of modern business. In the
streets of lower Manhattan on hot
day the healthful down beat OF a
vertical summer sun is turned into
the sicKeuing steam OF human
laundry.
The sky. scraper is better fitted to
New York than to many cities that
have erected them from Imitation,
much. as the chappie turns up his
trousers when it is raining IN Lon
don. Some artists regard these
buildings as nothing but a grotesque
array of gaunt paral1edOp'peds, even
lacking the grace that goes with a
bunch of tapering factory chimneys.
But taken in the mass they convey
an impresslonisttc sense OF power.
In a city shaped like tape meas
ure, they provide an economy Of
time. AS experts say that 1000
foot building can be placed safely
on a 200 foot lot. this air expansion
has only begun. The records OF 125

There is no good reason Why those
using the bridge across the West
Fork river at the old far grounds
should not be treated as citizens and
taNpayers of the county en-
tilted to some consideration The
new traction line will come across
the bridge and there will be no room
for teams on the bridge when cars
are on 1t. The matter was laid be
fore the county court in proper
shape and the court should have
given the people some coPsideratton..
The bridge should be wtdened and
the court viii not have done its
duty until It sees that the same IS
widened. Taxpayers should not
ntnce words either in letting the
court know just what they think
shout 1t.

Focus.

The yer.est amateur in photos-
raphy knows that a view Of an OBJ
feot may be completely distorted by
being out OF focus, and thus give an
entirely wrong notion of its rela-
tive proportions. To get the correct
focus the eye of the camera must
be neither TOO close nor too far from
what is to be photographed.
SO 1t is with the human vision
though merely a mental photograph
the same precision of focus is neces-
sary to. arrive at relative values.
The trouble with too many people
declares the Omaha Bee, Is that
their minds focus wrong, and grasp
events. at. either too near or too great
distance, or from extreme angles, or
magnify unimportant details at the
expense of the vital elements.
The man who IS out of >focus with
his surroundings or with the subject
he is discussing is quite common,
and the peculiar ideas of which be
becomes obsessed are as bizarre
as a photograph made by freak
camera. To get such man back
into focus is much more difHcult
than to adjust a lens, yet that Is
precisely what must he done in or
der to give him clear PERCEPTION
and enable him to. see things in
their right relation.
