SHORT CHEW TALK
BY HEALTH SHARP
To Live 100 Years, Follow
DR.. Woodward.

Chew your food until it slips down
your throat like liquid, and live 100
years"
This is the advice of District Health
Officer William c. Woodward to those
good people of Washington who suffer
with indigestion or other troubles of a
like nature. The doctor believes that 80
per cent of the ailments that make man
a source of misery to himself and friends
comes from the boiling Of food of all
kinds and at all hours.
IF a person has a perfectly healthy
stomach it does not matter so much what
he eats as how he eats it,, said DR..
Woodward last night. "Half-chewed
food, however, VIII bring on ailments
of the digestive system quicker than
almost anything else, excepting alcoholic
drink in excess"
Agrees with GaynOr.
DR.. Woodward agrees with Mayor
Gaynor, of New York, who, in a dis
course on good digestion as a basis of
happiness, said thorough mastication
was the one essential element. The
mayor preferred to talk on this sub
ject rather than to guess who is to be
President in 1912, and he told a group
of newspaper men as much.
You reporters who flirt with the elu-
sive cocktail are on the road to physi-
cal disorder which probably will make
your old age unbearable," said the
mayor. He added that he had been
taught the habit of slow eating because
of his recent wound in the throat which
made it impossible to swallow edibles
unless they were ground so as to form
a liquid
DR.. Woodward agrees that Fletcher
ism is a good thing. but that Mr..
Fletcher perhaps carries his ideas a
little too far in some respects.
Take Laughing Tablets.
The mental state has much to do
with the digestion of food" said DR..
Woodward. as shown by the fact that
when a person becomes violently angry
during a meal or Immediately follow
ing he is apt to have an attack of
acute indigestion with serious conse-
auences. A hearty laugh is about the
best medicine TO indulge in after eat
ing, and this has been known for ages.
as shown by the old adage, laugh and
wax fat"
DIR. Woodward did not care to commit
himself on the subject of the cocktail as
an appetite producer, saying he had had
little experience along that line and was
not qualified TO give an opinion.
But" said he, Il will say that as a
rule alcohol is deadly foe to the gastric
juices of the stomach and will, in time,
produce a chronic disorder"
Do Not Eschew Ment.
DR.. woodward and Mayor Gaynor stand
pat on the question Of meat eating. Both
believe some animal food is a good thing
and absolutely necessary for the brain
worker.
Speaking Of mental appetite" DR.
Woodward said scores OF persons 20
about groaning with mental dyspepsia,
and that all they need Is some mental
chewing Of good thoughts 70 cure them.

THE DIVINITY OF JESUS.

Text as Authority.
Did Jesus have a mother7" was the
subject Of a sermon delivered in the
Capital Baptist Church, at Typograph-

Sven.
The question was answered in the af-
frmative by. the text, Galatians, IVA:
God sent forth his son made of

Mr.. Sven, however, argued that Jesus
never had father, and gave as his
reason the quotation from the Bible: "a

him Emmanuel" These words, IL is said

Chinaman Takes 1t Cool.

The Chinaman is commonly reputed
to be Indifferent to the tides of for
tune. He looks with equanimity upon
misfortune, disaster and death. The
following from the Idaho City World
would seem to bear QUIT his theory:
Two old pioneer Cinnamon of this
place died last Friday night, one in
the second building below the Chinese
laundry on Montgomery street, and
the other at Buena Vista Bar, near the
Wah Soon ranch Another old Chi
naman died day or two before this,
a few doors below the laundry. Chi

who died near the laundry Friday
night. Saturday morning some one
happened to drop into the place and
noticing the pallor of the deceased

and said to Smith: This man is dad. y
Smith replied, in an indifferent man
ner, "Oh, yes, he dead: no difference

The Oregon Short Line special
train was in Caldwell Monday pursu-
ant to schedule and was greeted by a
large crowd of interested farmers,
fruit growers and others. Every lee
tire car was filled to its full capacity
and standing room was at premium
Those in attendance paid close atten-
ton to the lecturers and will undoubt-
edly gain considerable profit from
them.
The reports from all sections of the
state visited by the train are that the
farmers were we'll pleased, and hear
tily express their appreciation of the
good work being done by the Oregon
Short Line along this line. This train
is sent out without cost to the people
living along the line. Its purpose is
entirely educational. 1t spreads in
formation and the results of success
full experiments in the most effectual
manner yet discovered. The agricul-
tural schools and experiment stations
are constantly at work but the results
Of their experiments are not always
generally known. In consequence
the demonstration train plan was tried
and thus far with great success.
The Tribune realizes that a great
many of its readers could not be pres
mt to hear the lectures delivered
aboard the train. A great many others
will be glad to read these lectures at
their leisure even though they heard
them delivered. In consequence we
have decided to publish these lectures
one each week. The first, "The
Care of the Ofchard," by Mr.. E. D.
Ball, director of the Utah Experiment
Station, will be found on another page
Of this issue. The others will appear
from week to week until the reader
has them We would suggest that
these lectures be carefully read and
then preserved for future reference
For instance the lecture in this issue
will be very interesting to fruit grow
ers, but in the spring, summer anc
fall, it will be really valuable.

SALE DEPENDS upon
COUNCIL GIVING
FRANCHISE
CALDWELL COMPANY HAS EN-
TERED INTO AGREEMENT
TO SELL TO MAINLANDS.
If Council Grants Franchise the Deal
Will Go Through But New Corners
Will Not Operate Under Franchise
Now in Force Under Any Circum-
stances Whatever.

The report gained currency in the
city early in the week that the Main
lands had purchased the electric
lighting and power plant Of the Cald-
we'll Power Co. The reports varied as
to the purchase price, ranging from
$150,0O0 to $35O,0OO Wishing to as
certain the facts in the case The Tri-
bune sought an interview with Mr..
Sebree Wednesday. In reply to the
inquiry: "Have you sold out the cleo
trio lighting and power plant in this
city?" Mr.. Sebree said:
"No, l have not sold the power
plant in Caldwell l will tell you the
exact status of affairs. l have entered
into an agreement with Messrs. Main
land to sell provided the franchise
they ask for is granted. They will
under no circumstances come into
Caldwell under the franchise under
which the Caldwell Power Co. is now
operating.
1T would be injudicious and I'M
profitable for me to discuss the ,mer-
its of the franchise applied for by
Messrs. Mainland and l will not ex-
press an opinion as to what, in my
opinion, the people should do in the
matter, That is a question for the
people of this city to discuss and de-
eide"
When asked as to what he would
do in case the sale was, made, he
said:
That is another matter that l do
not feel at liberty to talk about at
the present time. l shall leave for
Los Angeles tonight to be gone until
after the holidays at least. You may
state that in my opinion this is the
coming section of Idaho and Caldwell
is the coming town. l have not sold
my interests in the Caldwell Traction
company's electric railway. In few
years the Boise valley will be the most
densely populated agricultural sec
ton in the United States. 1t has the
soil, climate and the water. l have
no intention of leaving it."
Mr.. Sebree left Wednesday evening
spend Christmas with his family in
southern California. His son who
was taken down with pneumonia
some time ago is completely recov-
cred.
