HIS PALATE WAS FIRE PROOF
Unusually Strong Drink Had But One
Drawback, 10 Testimony Of
Confirmed Topper.

Assemblyman Brennan, author OF the
Brennan cold storage law" said the
other day in Albany to the Journal
man.
"A recent examination OF the cold
storage plants in New York city
showed that in twelve storage houses
alone there were stored 100000
pounds of poultry and meat, $500, 900
pounds of fish, 100000 pounds of
cheese, 100000 pounds of butter and
100000 cases Of eggs.
This food should be labeled as
what it Is. 1t shouldn't be sold to the
public as fresh food at the price of

and. though it looks all right, it's taste
is all wrong-except to such people
as are blessed with the palate of Jim
Unison.
"Jim Unison" Mr. Brennan explain.
ed, was hard drinker up Ithaca
way. One evening Jim stopped at the
tavern for a dram, tossed it off, and
departed calmly; but after he was
gone the tavern-keerer discovered
that, in place of applejack, he had Civ.
en- Jim a drink out of the sulphuric
acid bottle that was kept to clean the
verdigris of the brass taps.
"The tavern-keeper couldn't sleep
that night, but the next morning. to
his unspeakable relief, Jim dropped
in for another dram before breakfast
apparently none the worse for his
dose Of poison.
Jim said the tavern-keeper, what
did you think Of that applejack ! sold
you last night?
ooh, 1t was fen stuff said Jim

The increase in the number OF deaths
from cancer, from year to year, mas
been noted by medical authorities all
over the United States. Cancer, SO
far as now known, is not one OF the
preventable diseases. There are plenty
Of ousck remedies offered for 1t, and 1t
is probable that there are some honest
practitioners who believe it is durable.
1t is a subject OF study throughout the
scientific world, but there is no unani-
nifty of theory as TO its cause and there
is no known specific for its cure.
There is hope that the wide-extended
research that is going on will so add
to human knowledge OF the disease as
TO enable medical men 20 fight 1t more
effectively in the future than has been
the case in the past. Should this hope
be realized it will be possible, in the
near future, perhaps, 10 check the in
crease of cancer and to make 1t less
formidable agency for the extinction
OF the race. The discovery OF o sue
cessful method OF treatment will con-
stitute one of the overshadowing
epochs Of medical history.

The Sultan of Zanzibar, who has
been pictured by many persons in pri-
vate life as fortunate individual, an
nounces that he is going TO abdicate
the throne OF his Arabian ancestors,
and 20 to England TO live where he
was educated. he is quoted as saying
that he prefers private citizenship and
a sanitary house in England to an i'm.
posing title, an unsanitary palace and
mock authority in Zanzibar. He does
not relish future as the puppet OF
the British Resident, even II such q
career would provide him with good
income and guarantee him complete
ideness and protection from the pos
sbili,y OF dethronement which always
menaced the rulers OF mis- country In
the days when they were real Sultans.
Zanzibar's modern history provides an
example OF what happens in African or
, Asian countries when European Gov
ernments advance their trade outposts
into them and follow with such regula-
ton OF local affairs as is deemed de-
sirable ior the protection of their trade
interests. About twenty years ago
England and Germany divided up the
mainland part OF the Sultinate Of Zanzi-
bar and included il in their African
possessions. This left the island OF
that name under the protection of
Great Britain. Ruling protectorate
has its advantages to an indolent and
ambitionless man who is content to
loaf upon throne and wear fantastic
garments on State occasions, but even
cricket playing in England Is better
sport to an active man than playing at
being Sultan.
The news that one OF our prominent
hnanciers had a severe attack OF grip
would cause more disturbance in
America than the ab6ication OF the
Sultan will cause in Zanzibar. Since
. love OF liberty is Unborn not only ir
the West, but also in the East, 1t Is
not remarkable that a country like
Persia holly resents being reduced t.
the position OF protectorate and see
ing its independent government be
come merely an adjunct OF the Imperia
Government OF Russia.

Talk Of insanity, in the dispatches from
Boston relative to the arraignment OF

perfectly logical criminals mind is

Richeson led young girl astray.
When he saw an opportunity to marry
money and live upon the fat of the
land he wanted TO get rid OF the en-

the girl that it was drug to provide

fanticide and virtual wife murder the
crime of deluding rich woman into
bestowing her wealth upon as great
a scoundrel as ever lodged the gal

indicative of an unbalanced mind. 1t
