Protein. being the most costly OF food
ingredients. is the one most likely to
be lacking in inexpensive meals. and
this is the nutrient which both skim
milk and buttermilk supply in n cheap
aud useful form. and when taken with
bread or used in cooking they form a
very nutritious addition TO the diet.
Two and one-half quarts OF skimmilk
or buttermilk contain about the same
amount OF protein as one pound of
round steak and cost about one-quar-
ter as much. Two quarts OF milk have
a greater nutrient value than one quart
of oysters. The nutriment I'm the form

Dickinson then confronted him
with some testimony given by Reid
before the Industrial commission in
1899 concerning contracts between
the American Tinplate company and
the manufacturers of tinplate machin-

had SO testified but it was thirteen

Dickinson.

Telling of the organization of the
New Jersey concern Reid said that it
had issued $1S,000,000 each of common

incorporated for $46.000,000. He could
not explain what had become of the
other $10,O00,000 unless it had been
divided among the stock holders He
said that the New Jersey corporation
was formed because the tinplate in
dustry was in a bad way in 1898, and
he quoted price figures of the product
for a few succeeding years to show
that the merger had greatly benefited
the industry Recess was then taken.

THINKS RICHESON
MAY BECOME CRAZY
(National News Association)

BOSTON, Mass, May 13.-Warning
that the incessant examination of
alienists might drive Rev. Clarence V.
T. Richeson to insanity was sounded
here today. DR.. G. V. Cilley said:
1.-THE prisoner is absolutely sane, but
give the alienists enough time and
they will make him insane, just as
they would any man.
He stood the tests in an admirable
manner, but too much of that kind of
stuff will surely have it's effect
mo man can stand a continuous
program of experts putting him up day
after day for this and that kind of an
examination.
DR.. Cilley is the physician at the
Charles Street Jail where the former
minister is prisoner.

The Demon Of the Niger.

The natives inhabiting the country
near the source OF the Nigar believe
that a devil lives in the rock from
whence the river springs. They are
very supersutious and greatly fear this
devil. who is supposed to kill any per-
son who dares to look at the source.
Whenever the natives are showing a
stranger the spot they cover up their
faces and walk backward in the direc-
ton Of the spring. pointing toward 1t
with outstretched hand behind the
back.

Arsenic Eaters.

The average Englishman has a hor,
ror of arsenic. but the peasantry in
Austria-Hungary and othei parts OF
eastern Europe eat it habitually, be-
lieving that it gives plumpness and
beauty to the figure and longness OF
breath. Peddlers sell white arsenic
about the countryside quite without re
striction. The quantities taken are
small, and so long as the doses are reg
ular no illness results. Once they are
stopped, however. symptoms Of arse
nical poisoning at once become mani
fest. Mountaineers in eastern Europe
often take a dose of arsenic before
commencing n climb. and it is also
customary to give it to horses and dog:
to give brightness and gloss to theil
skins.-London Chronicle.

character. but because nails may be
driven into it, The nails take a good

ing but slightly in weight.
In starting the game, the beam OF
the balance is locked In place in the
same manner as the ordinary weigh
ing balance, and each player takes
q set of balls and proceeds to place
them. one at time. in the depres-
sions in the respective pans. The
object Of each player Is to place the
heaviest of the balls in the depres-
sions farthest from the center OF the
balance. After the balls are in place.
the beam is released and a hand on
top Of the balance registers the win
ner and the number OF points his
side outweighs or outbalances that
of his competitor. Thus the player
who can estimate most accurately the
comparative weights Of the balls by
simply weighing them in his hands
wins the game.
