FIRST THINGS

Hhe modern fasting cure'' had its beginning thirty two years ago today. when Dr. Tanner Of New York conn pfeted preparations for q forty-day f49t under scientific 'oondi tiona, the flrst ever attempted in which all pos abilities of fraudulent deception were .eltminated. He began the fast at na9ns on June 2, 1880. and from the tiEhe to noon of Aug. ! he was Tt all times under the observation of physicians. During the forty days and nights he ate no food whatever. but drank a little MAter. occasionally. He weigh~, cd 157 1~2 bounds at the beginning of the test. and had lost thirty six pounds at it's conclusion. In the fol- lowing year MT. Griscorn, Of Chi. 'cago. made a similar attempt, but stspped at the expiration of thirty six days Beforea br. Tanner,s attempt, several Enslish people had clafmed to have undergone long fasts. but in every instanceE they were found to. have practiced deception, and most of them were imprisoned as cheats.

 Desirability of an international con- ference on the validation of through order-notify bills of lading and of leg fslation for making the system thor oughIy effective. As result of frau dulent practices, it is stated, prolonged conferences have been held between American bankers and cotton shippers and representatives of European firms and plan for validation of this class of bills has been elaborated.

 It is likely that several other ssuh- jects will be added to the program of the coming congress.

PTOMAINE POISONING
Why It Occurs and How to Prevent
 Its Occurrence.

Editor Farmer:
 Sir-An article in your 6-S-12 issue gives an account of Harry McElroy and several others being afflicted with ptumaines poisoning. I believe no better work can be done by the press than to warn the public of Ahe danger existing from partaking e foods not properly preserved, and the necessity of utilizing canned goods as soon as possible after opening the can. Sci entifie experiments have determined time and time again that numerous articles of food when not kept in a hygienic condition readily deteriorate so as to become poisonous substances.
 The formation of ptomaine general ly, although not always accompanies putrefactien Therefore, great care should be taken that meat. fish, fowl, oysters. canned goods. etc, are eaxen.

JEFF DAVIS. 90 TO-DAY, IS

E Jer Davis, -old shirtsleeves''. Unit ed States, Senator from Arkansaw, iS-s
 Oh. butcher 1affing!
 Funny, but one can't even mention the name of the ArkansaW Solon Without starting storm of mirth and. ,jeers and cAtcalis.
 Yet there are some things about MT. Davis, who is celebrating the semi scentennfals to- day--that are most ad-' mirable. He likes to be called "old Shirtsleeves." and he acts the role; he is bit uncouth, although continu- ed association with senators has rub- bed~off little of the roughness; on occasion he uses language that is far. from parliamentary, and he has made Arkansas the laughing -stock of the kid-gIove folk who reside in the cen and candid and says what he means and mems what he says, and says it as soon as it pops into his head; he is incorrupibly honest, and no suspi- cion of the money taint has ever at tached to his name; and he is loyal to the State he represents. although for Arkansas the federal appropria- tions it wants, because of his consist ent refusal to ssssSvap votes" with the enemy, said enemy being the Repub-; lfcan party, which. in Jef'S Opinion.t .tiG, but this Is a family newspaper.

 Before he went to the Senate to sit with the "high-combed roosterss of that august, after a manner of speak Governor of Arkansas, and was the, only executive of that State to have, been elected three times. After as long service in the Governors chair and in Washington, Jeff Davis is as
 poor as the proverbial church mouse. There isn't a man living perhaps,
 who has less hankering for the coin of the realm than Jeff Davis. Money kain't nothin' to him. He is not-as he has sHren declared-in the confi- dence of sthe high-collared roosters called bankers. K the Senate that Jeff Davis hasn't up-, set, just drop him "a postal card and tell him what it is, and the tradition will be speedily overturned.
