FOOD VALUE OF CHESTNUTS
Than Potatoes and Almost a.
Good a. Bread.

In France much attention IL given
to the propagating of the chestnut,
and the fruit Is spoken Of with enthu-
siasm and respect. In French litera-
ture, especially in stories for children.
the chestnut tree is quite as impor-
tant feature as the plum tree in the
politics of this country. where we
speak lightly Of the chestnut and
then pay at the rate Of IS a bushel
for them. The small French chestnut
is called the "chataigne," but the
large or giant chestnut is the mar
rom" The marion is cultivated ex-
tensively in France and Italy, where
it is used In large quantities.
Every soda fountain menu" says
the New York Soda Fountain, a trade
journal, has some reference to mar
rous, and marrons glace are a favor
lite after-dinner morsel at all the larg-
er hotels, yet few persons realize that
while primarily a dessert delicacy,
marrons are an exceedingly whole
some and valuable food. 1t is not
generally known that the fruit of the
chestnut tree is nearly as valuable
as bread and more valuable than po-
tatoes as a food, being rich in starch
and fat
In some districts Of Pennsylvania
much attention is now given to the
planting Of chestnut trees. There are
several hill counties in Indiana, like
Brown, Monroe and Morgan, where
the marion and the smaller sized
chestnuts could be made a source Of
profit.

cHEETAH HUNT IN INDIA
Sport Was Once Very Popular With
English ResIdents-Is Not
Rare Beast,

The cheetah hunt which the vice
roy witnessed recently at Hyderbad
reminds one that cheetah hunting was
an extremely popular sport with In
dian princes in former days, although
the initiation of European forms of
sport has done much in these times
to rob it of ancient vogue.
1t was practiced both by Hindu
and Mohammedan chieftains over the
greater part of India, for the cheetah
even now is not rare beast, and a
century or so ago must have been
common enough.
Another animal used in the sane
way by Indian mobiles was a sort of
lynx, spelled variously as shoe
goose" "syahgush." But this was
used much more rarely than the chez
tab. However, It was not only In.
dams who INDUCED in this form of
sport.
1t was enjoyed and practiced by
Europeans as well in the days when
they were content to abide in India
for fifteen years at a stretch and
when they lived a PIndienne in a way
unknown to modern times. More than
one of the Company's nabobs kept
their own cheetahs, which were fire.
quently presents from friendly chiefs.
1t may easily be imagined that chez
tab hunting was very good sport and
welcomed by the servants of the
Company as an excellent substitute
for the coursing which was familiar
to them in England and which, like
the cheetah hunt, has vanished be-
fore the spread of games such as ten.

sairitisna said TO Be psmonisn,.

A most interesting little brochure
has recently CONE off the press setting
forth with Bible proofs that the COM
munications received by and through
Spiritist Mediums is of Demon origin.
The writer traces his subject through
the Scriptures from the time when
certain of the holy angels became dis
obedient. He proves from the Scrip
lures that these fallen spirits per-
senate the human dead with whose
past history, spirits, Though invisible,
are thoroughly acquainted. He shows
that they also frequently person
ate the Creator and the Redeemer,
commanding their deceived ones to
pray, do penanee, etc. This, however,
is merely to lead them on and to bring
them more thoroughly uader demonf
acal control Sometimes by breaking
down the natural barrier, the human
will, they possess their victim, and rule
him more or less to his ruin-frequent-
ly sending such to the mad-house.
Numerous illustrations, Scriptural and
otherwise. are given. The price Of the
little book is but ten cents; it should
be in the hands of all interested in
Spiritism or who have friends inter-
ested therein. Enclose five two-cent
