DIET AND HEALTH
HINTS
BY DIR. T. J. ALLEN
Food Specialist
BLUE RIBBONS WON BY
GOOD FEEDING.

"Those blue ribbons hanging
there over the door are the re-
suit of diet" said Miss Long,
winner of many prizes at the
Rcvsl Live Steck Show, as re-
ported in the Kansas City Star.
"The horse Is just like the hi.
man being in aspect to diet"
said Miss Long, "and 1t is ad-
mitted that the races of human
lily that have made the greatest
progress In civilization and the
arts are those that have been
fed the best. However we'll fed
a horse may be, however good
his heredIty may be, he can win
no firsts If he Is III treated and
worried. Food is not the only
factor In life; the mental condl-
ton is also a prime factor, but
feeding Is essential to the best
looks, the best work, the best
disposition, the principle being
the same throughout the animal
kingdom, as every stockman
and every educated physician
knows.

demand for recognition from Senator
Quay.
These two men, then state Senators
prepared a written instrument in
which it was proposed that they di-
vide the state patronage with Senator
Quay. He refused to sign it, and they
with Senator Martin, of Philadelphia
organized what was known as the
Hog Combine in the legislature OF
1895, with the purpose of defeating the
veteran leader.
Senator Quay fought them with all
the resourcefulness of the most expert
boss of his time. In 1901 Senatr Ma
gee died, just as the combination lead
ership had been repudiated by the city
which they had ruled for so many
years. Senator Quay passed the rip
per" bill, reorganizing the government
of Pittsburgh, and Finn announced
his retirement from politics.
For 10 years he waited for the
chance to get back in the game 1t
came when the third term candidate
announced his candidacy. The Pitts

haunted the Outlook office, and when
the fight was on took charge of the
Pennsylvania end and was called a
leader
Unless he has changed since he had
power it will be mailed-fst, sledge-
