QUESTION OF CEREALS AS FOOD, WHOLE WHEAT
BREAD, WHITE FLOUR CONCENTRATED DIET

Thus common sense. experience and
scientific inquiry together Indicate
that in the selection OF a diet, atten-
ton mist not be given alone TO the
food materials thereof but also 10
the filling materials OF natural char.
HCtgr which promote digestion and
proper -fHnetioning of the aiimentary
tract
IL is not safe nor advisable to
select the highly concentrated food.
SO called that is. one completely d.
gesrible. and then add some other
substance not natural thereto as a
filling material like shellac or other
insoluble and indigestible materials.
Such a combination would seriously
disturb and injure- its normal func-
lions.
Objection Is often made by advo-
Gates of a more concentrated diet,
for instance. those who advocate the
exclusive use of white -four In prefer
ence 10 the whole wheat -four, that
these natural filling materials are ir-
ritating and injurious. II is possibly
true that in some cases of disordered
or weakened digestion there is some
basis for such a statement, but
think il may be said without fear
OF violating any hygenic facts, that
for the> normal individual In a state
OF health, there Is nothing to fear
from eating the principal part of the
foods which nature provides with
practically their whole content OF
natural filters.
In regard to cereals. think 1t may
be said that as a rule healthy peo-
pie can eat the finely powdered Ger
cal with as much, II not greater, SAT
city from the point of view OF health
as would be attached to eating the
purified, more starchy, and more solu
BILE portions OF the grain. Many by
gienists teach indeed that a general
eating of the fiours made from the
whole grains would be conducive to
higher state OF health.
Where the digestive organs are
not irritated by the consumption OF
such products | am inclined to agree
with the accuracy OF these state
ments. On the contrary, would
not for moment endeavor to mini
mlze the fact that bolted wheat flour
Is nutritious, palatable and digestible
and that there are perhaps stomachs
which will rot tolerate with safety
1.-THE whole wheat product. These cases
think are in the minority In gen
eral, may state that a generous
diet OF foods containing large guam
titles of natural filters Is conducive
TO good health.

MONEY VOTED FOR ANOTHER
INSPECTOR or ELEVATORS
Tom O'Reilly Shows He Must

Tom OReilly, city inspector of eie-
vators, stood before the council com
mittee on ways and means, Wcdnes-
day afternoon, and startled the cum
mittee with his description OF elet ator
conditions in the city so that the com.
mittee approved an estimate OF ST.

the aldermen mopped their brows and
declared that II IL meant but the saw

When O'Reilly began TO explain the
necessity of another inspector Aid.
Vernon cut in with the statement that
there are too many elevator inspec-
tors" that they are nuisance to
people. But the aldermen insisted on
hearing O'Reilly and he detailed some
of his experiences in buildings In
which Vernon is interested, much to
the delight of the other committee.

oil cigars While O,Reilly went on with
his story.

he. The big elevator companies that

HIGH COST OF LIVING is
WORLDWIDE, SAYS TAFT

WASHINGTON, March 14.-The
president in special message to con-
gress, yesterday, transmitted the first
installment of the information col
iectedN by the department of state In
regard TO cooperation and the cost
of living in various European coun-
tiles.
The president says the popular de-
mand for information of this charac-
ter apparently was based on the be-
lief that some remedy might be found
for the high cost of living. The i'm
mediate result of the inquiries insti-
tuted by the department OF state
through the consular officers was TO
accentuate the fact that the increase
i'm the prices of the common neces-
sities of life is worldwide, and that
1t is an absorbing question with the
cooperative associations.
The president also calls attention
TO his message of Feb. 2, in which he
recommended an international com
mission to look into the cause for the
high prices of the necessities OF life
and the possible remedies. Should
sGch commission be authorized by
congress, he says, the relation OF the
cooperative societies to this subject
would be of great interest.
The consulgeneral in London for
warded table prepared by the CO.
operative wholesale societies which
exhibited the increased cost OF GER
tain articles in the United Kingdom
since 1898. From a Summary OF rates
OF wages 1t was developed that the
per cent of increase in certain trades
from 1896 to 1910 was Ill and in
food prices 1875 The wages OF rail-
way employees during this period had
increased only 10 per cent.
The consul In Havre. France, re-
ported food prices in November, 1900
and in November, 1911. All these
with the exception of sugar, showed
heavy increases. The consul In Lyons
transmitted table prepared by the
Workingman's exchange giving the
average prices OF various food com
modities in 1900 and in 1911. Fish
was the only food commodity that
had not scared in price.
With reference TO Germany, the
consul general at Berlin reported that
living conditions were seriously al
fected by the continued rise In the
price OF food products, many OF the
commodities having advanced Tar
above all previous records.

sier Kitchen Cabinets.

Rarely, IL ever have the housewives
OF Detroit had such a rare oppor;un-
ity OF securing household article
that will afford as much convenience
and saving OF labor, as they have By
the Club plan by which Brushab.rs
are now selling the Hoosier Kitchen
Cabinet Once housekeeper has
grown to know the saving OF s. cps
these Cabinets afford, they would
wonder how they ever managed with
out one.
The women of Detroit have shown
their appreciation of this offer by the
enthusiastic manner in which they
have responded 10 the advertisements
in connection with the Club plan. The
store of Brushaber has broken ali
records during this sale: having sold
more cabinets in two days than they
did other years in seven.
by being enabled to pay for the
Cabinet in so small a payment as
S100 per week. every woman can
avail herself OF this splendid opDor-
Unity. and il is no wonder that they
have displayed SO much interest. The
Club is limited TO 500 members ana
thus far 175 names have been enroll
ed.
Any woman who does her own
work will appreciate the saving OF
steps in being able TO have everything
that she will need in the preparation
of her meals SO compactly arranged
and still not in the least crowded or
confused. These Cabinets afford like
nothing else can: "A place for every
thing"
For the women of Detroit who have
not heretofore been interested in this
plan, We would suggest that they go
10 Brushaber's at the earliest pos
slble moment and get detailed facts
regarding the Club plan so as not to
be disappointed by being told tho:
the membership limit has been over
run.

ALDERMEN SEE SKETCH

Gentlemen, this fountain Will be
one OF the real wonders OF the world,
and James Scott will be remembered
az he deserves TO be remembered for
his generosity"
Charles Moore, president OF the
city plan and Improvement commits
Sion thus commented on a sketch OF
The proposed Scott memorial foun-
tain that he exhibited TO aldermen,
Wednesday afternoon.
The plan as worked out thus far
calls for the creation of nearly 100
acres Of land extending In a westerly
direction from the foot of Belle Isle.
IL will completely change the APP
pearance of this portion OF the island
and constitute a striking and mag
niflcent memorial.
Millions OF tons OF earth and large
quantities of rock will be conveyed
to the foot OF the island In the filing
In process Land will thus be made
for several hundred feet beyond the
westerly short of the island. Mr..
Moore explained that no trouble Is
anticipated In building the retaining
walls along the south and north
shores OF the made land SO that river
currents will have no effect on IT,
The main thoroughfares on the
island running in southwesterly
course will strike pivotal point
about where the land now ends, and
the roadway will then extend some
distance directly west on the made
land. to correspond with the position
OF the memorial.
Two arms, TO be built of concrete
and store, viii extend out nearly l.
900 feet and form basin, In which
1t will be possible to navigate small
boats. Each arm describes semi.
circle at its westerly extremity, and
In the center of the basin at this
point will be erected an categorical
figure. Laredo Taft, famous as "A
sculptor, has been suggested for this
part OF the work and II is planned TO
make the figure memorial TO Cadil-
lac.
The statue of Scott will be placed
at the head of the basin, and, view
ing it from many angles, will not be
more conspicuous than the memorial
TO Cadillac.
An abundance of water for real
fountain effect will be conveyed 10
the structure by city water pipes. Mr..
Moore told the aldermen that the
designers wanted plenty OF water"
and a survey of the plan would indi-
cate that they will succeed in their
wish. Every few feet along both
arms of the basin there Will be

basin.
Another feature of the design is
two smaller basins on the maiE. land.
The Scott fund available for the
memorial will amount TO between
$500, 900 and 100000 and the plans
will certainly work out into hand.
