COUNTRY EDITOR AS
MORAL BOOSTER

The local paper should be the best
thing in the rural home; and as the
saloon is the most deadly enemy of
that home, he must defend the one
against the other; and his advertising
columns must not give the lie to his
editorial department.
The city newspapers-not all of them
thank God-may for the time being fill
their pages with beer and whiskey
advertising, and their editorial columns
with corresponding excuses for the
vilest traffic this side of hell, but such
business is not for the country editor,
and the time is not far distant-mark it
well-when metropolitan newspapers
reeking with this vice-breeding liter
ature, will no longer be admitted to re-
spectacle homes to debauch their in
mates.
1t has been said that the office of the
newspaper is simply that of mirror,
held up to reflect the life OF its COM
munity. Not so. There is much evil
that need not-should not-be reflected
The editor who lives up to his oppor-
tunity as a moral booster, must be an
active leader and molder Of public
opinion in right channels, and not a
mere passive reflector of the actions
and thoughts OF others. He must voice
the highest intelligence and best life and
morals of his community. To measure
up to this responsibility will demand
the best there is in him Of character,
capacity and service.-F. NJ. Johnson,
editor Lowell Mich Ledger.

EAT CHOCOLATE WITH FRUIT
Ideal Food Combination According to
Writer Who Claims to Know
Whereof He Speaks.

Some silly things have recently
been said about chocolate, which have
attempted with some air Of authority
TO discount its value as an article of
food, says the Lancet. Practical (ex-
perience of course long ago decided
in favor OF the view that chocolate Is
a good sustaining food, and this find
ing is not surprising, having regard to
the food substances which well-made
chocolate contains.
Chocolate has been employed for
its staying powers and it's nutritive
properties with considerable success
in army maneuvers.
Chocolate can only do harm, in COM
mon with all good foods, when eaten
to excess. Chocolate contains from
q to about so per cent OF sugar,
from 20 to as per cent of fat, from 4
TO IL per cent of heterogeneous matter.
from to per cent of mineral mat
ter, and about 0.75 per cent of theo-
bromine. 1t is therefore sweetmeat,
food and stimulant.
Thus far the Lancet. Now comes
DR.. ]. Sim Wallace, an eminent Lon
don dentist, with letter asserting
that chocolate, does a vast amount of
harm. especially to the teeth, by being
eaten between meals and before going
to bed. He says 1t should be eaten
toward the end OF meal and should
always be followed by fresh fruit.

kins. There's nothing new In that
A man can stave off old age by jump
ing off the Eiffel tower; or dropping

by riding over Niagara falls sitting
