Need Of .snlrltuaI Food.

Ore of the strangest blunders we
make is In failing to understand hat
there are multitudes starving for spir-
itual food who know we are deceiving
them if we say they need only take
and eat. They do not know how. They
want someone to tell them where they
are sick and how they can get well.
The deepest. truest, sanest note in
most of our lives is the consciousness
that we must have a changed life, a
changed motive, a changed direction.
a changed conception of all values.
The first must be last and the last
must be first. We must be born from
above. We must die to the old that
we may live to the new. We must
cruelty the flesh If We are to live in
the spirit.-The Uniyersalist Leader.

HELPFUL HINTS FOR SERVING
THE SICK.

Make the tray as attractive as pos
sibie, using dishes which look we'll
with the food, when it is possible. II
dishes and food fight in color 1t may
seem Of no Importance, but often a
sick person is peculiarly sensitive to
clashing colors. A well arranged tray
will appeal to the eye and a tickle
appetite is often coaxed into eating
simply because the food looks good.
Fashions in foods change, but the
fashion Of serving food that is hot, in
hot covered dishes, iced foods in cold
dishes, is not likely to change.
If possible, serve the tea or coffee
in a pot, as an invalid, if able, likes
to pour out the beverage and sweeten
it to taste.
Never serve large amounts to an
Invalid, or fill a glass more than two
thirds full; there are several reasons
for this. A glass is not easily handled
If full, by an unsteady hand, and too
large an amount may discourage the
patient from even trying the dish, If
be thinks he is expected to eat 1t all.
Even when a patient is so recovered
that it is necessary to feed him Law
ishly, one must use Judgment in over
serving.
All food and dishes should be at
once removed from the sick room.
Both food and water absorb impuri
ties.
A bit Of green or a flower or two on
the tray or in a small vase adds
much to its appearance.
Never under any circumstances.
without a physicians advice, give
liquor in any form. Many consider
egg nog ineffective without liquor, but
1t may be much more so with fruit
juices or a dash of nutmeg or vanilla.

Bad for Brand.

Friends of David H. Brand regret
the vetoing by Governor Wilson of

the granting of a parole to prisoners
who have served two-thirds of their

Brand, who is serving a sentence Of
seven years in State Prison in con-
nection with the burning of his store.
State Commissioner of Charities and
Corrections, Joseph T. Byers, former
State Prison Keeper George o. Os-
borne and Walter Dear, editor of the
Jersey Journal, were deeply interested
in the bill. The Governor gave as mis-
reasons for vetoing the bill, first, that
it opened the way to politics in influ-
encing the action of the Board of Pris-
n Inspectors; second, it would liber.
ate half of the population of the pris-
on; third, the paroling of the prison
ers was a matter for the Court of Par
dons and he had faith in this body;
fourth, the fear that matters would be
further complicated by reason of the
attacking of the constitutionality of
the indeterminate sentence law which
has received so much attention lately.

Bergen Officials Suffer.

The plan to save 400 vioIators of the
Corrupt Practices Act in Bergen Coun-
ty from the consequences has failed
as a result of the veto by Gov. Wilson
Of Senator Gaunt's bill, which was de-
signed to let all the violators of the
law square themselves by getting a
special dispensation from County
Judge Milton Demarest. The Gaunt
bill provided that where candidates
had failed to file their campaign state
ments as required by the Corrupt Prac-
tees Act and had thereby forfeited
their right to hold the offices to which
they were candidates, such delin,
quents might save their title by going
before the county Judge and getting
a special order for leave to file the
expense account after the date fixed
in the corrupt practices act. Gov.
Wilson declared that this bill is gen
eral, that it would open the doors all
over the State for a general Gripping
Of the corrupt practices act. The Gov
ernor wants the act strengthened, not
emasculated.

Standards Are Fixed.

Prudent housekeepers can protect
themselves by purchasing by the
bushel or half-bushel, for which the
law of 1911 fixes standards of weights,
in pounds, for all of the fruits, vege-
tables and seeds usually sold in guam
tiles, and provides that when a frac-
tional part of the bushel is sold, the
fractional part of the above weights
shall be required" Selling fruits and
vegetables by weight is becoming pop
ular, but there are some commodities
that can be more conveniently dis
posed of in baskets, and for that rea-
son the basket should be an honest
one.

Vetoes Liquor Bill.

If the temperance people of New
Jersey got a little jar when they found
Brewer John Hinchliffe of Paterson
selected as one of the four Wilson
candidates for delegates-at-large to
the Democratic National Convention
at Baltimore, they were made to feel
better when they heard that the Gov
ernor had vetoed Assembfyman
Lowy's bill to permit wholesalers to
deliver liquor in packages in territory
beyond that for which their license is
issued. 1t is worthy of note that one
of the chief sponsors for this bill at
the hearing was Robert S. Hudspeth,
vice-chairman of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee, who spoke as the at
torney for the wholesalers. In vetoing
the Lowry bill the Governor oyerrides
the arguments of one of his chief poll
teal li%eutenants. The bill was intro
duced last year by Assemblyman
James. 1t passed both houses, but was
lost somewhere between the Assembly
Chamber and the Governors office. Jo-
seph Buckridge of Jersey City piloted
the bill through the Legislature. 1t is
hardly probable that the liquor deal
ers will be able to force the bill over
the veto.

GAIN FROM FIsHERMEN's ROW.
CIammers, Angry at Geran Law
Against Motorboats, viii Stop
Taking of Baby HOLSTERS.

When Assemblyman Geran intro
duced the bill to prevent the dredging
Of soft clans with power boats. it was
figured by some of those who had been
working in this manner that the bill
would never become a law. When
they realized that they figured wrong
ly, they gave in gracefully, but they
now say that law is law" and that
the sale of baby Holsters will have to
cease and that they will put a stop to
the sale of them this summer at the
Highlands. 1t has been estimated by
ing each recent summer at least 20
900 Holsters have been sold at the
Highlands alone that measure less
than eight inches, which is prescribed
by law as the smallest that a be
taken. If the Geran law does no other
good, the prevention of the illegal
lobster trade alone will more than re
pay the State for the benfits that will
come of it Baby Holsters are sold
by the hundreds in Newark, not by
dealers but by men in other businesses
than that of handling fish and shell
fish. They make the acquaintance of
one or more lobster fishermen and
have the Holsters shipped to them in
Newark by the barrel, after which
they are disposed of by the dozen. The
State of Massachusetts has been pro-
tecting Holsters for years, and the
press of that State has on more than
one occasion congratulated New Jer-
sci for passing a law that will aid in
carrying on the great work. A few
more quarrels among the fishermen
who catch Holsters and clans will
bring about such a condition in a few
years that legitimate catching of lob
sters will become a large industry in
this State.
