schools of New Castle county comes
as II great surprise to the teachers
and patrons of the schools. The
reason assigned by Prof Spaid for
the step he has taken will be
recognized by all his friends and
j all having a real interest in the
welfare and efficiency ofour schools
as perfectly iustiiiable. The sal
AIRY is palpably inadequate. Prof.
Spaid has given to this work near
ly 10 years of faithful and efficient
service. The retiring superinten-
dent has accomplished Il number
of important results which will
leave the work in much better
shape than he found it, He has
done this at his own cost and per
5 sonal sacrifice, and the public will
e reap the benefit of it in the years

MANY THEORIES AS TO DEF
Wide Variety Of Choice Afforded BY
Opinions Of Men Prominent In
Affairs.

Nowadays eating has become q
veritable science, and there are those
who assert that q man can alter his
very character II he will only indulge
in the right kind OF diet. The other
day the private secretary of the man.
arajah of Jhalawar gave a lecture on
food in London. in the course of which
he stated that the eating of onions
is conductive to darkness of spirit"
He also averred that the caste system
in India is largely regulated by diet.
Thus. those Of the highest caste only
eat vegetarian meals in order to keep
their souls pure. Members Of another
caste are allowed to eat meat so that
they may become fitted to be warriors.
while the lowest caste Of all eat stale.
fiat foods" which suit their unspirit-
ual natures.
Two noted German professors gave
1t as their opinion not long ago that II
people would eat plenty of chalk they
would have not only more energy and
happiness, but considerably increased
brain power. says an exchange.
A doctor in Philadelphia recently
stated that no one who eats pound
Of macaroni daily will ever become q
drunkard. but he also stipulated that
the would-be teetotalers should live
entirely on vegetarian diet and
never touch meat in any circum.
stances.
In direct contradiction of the 'vege-
.arianism for soulfulness" theory is
that of New York woman. She be-
lieves that there is nothing like fine
chops and glasses Of beer to inspire
poets and writer's, and she opened q
restaurant for the express purpose OF
providing those who would WOO the
muse with the proper kind of diet.
She has no patience with people who
would become soulful on prunes
and lentils, and her linn for Bohem-
ians," as her establishment is called,
has certainly been well patronized by
budding Tennysons and future Mere
diths.
The belief is gaining ground in many
quarters that II you wish to stave OF
old age and to have the feeling of
perennial youth and gayety, no matter
what your actual years may be. you
cannot do better than eat plenty Of
sugar. One of the pioneers Of this
theory is Professor Metchnino1, who
has made exhaustive experiments to
prove his statements.
There are some who even assert
that not only does the frequent eating
Of sugar keep one from growing old.
but that II man or woman will begin
the sugar treatment, even after
senility has set in, the effect will be
30 great as to amount to a complete
change in his or her character.

DIsLoDGE REFORMAToRY HEAD
Charge Amrine With Quarantine
Law Violation.

Hutchinson, June 17.-What Is
said to be another move in the game
of politics being played to GUST M.
r. Amrine as superintendent of the
Kansas state reformatory was In
Btituted today by Sam s. Graybill,
who combines the jobs OF chairman
Of the Democratic congressional and
county committee, with the state
live stock commissionership.
Acting, 1t Is said, with the au.
thority of Governor Hodges, Chair
man Graybill has been trying, 1t ia
alleged, for some time to find ex-
cuse to base charges against Am
rine, some of which already have
been filed anonymously.
Today Graybill swore to a com.
plant charging Amrine with violat-
ing the state quarantine law. Part
OF the dairy herd at the reforma-
tory had been quarantined as tu-
hercular. Superintendent Amrine
was advised by the state bacteriolo-
gist and by Secretary Crumbine's of
sfive that the milk from these cows
could be used providing It was
boiled. Amrine proceeded to use
the milk in that manner. Graybill
then swore to the complaint. No
warrant will be issued until Attor-
Aey General Dawson can investigate.
