Advantages of Eating Less Meat.

From the Minneapolis Journal.
Prices for food in a town. just outside
Boston are compared by the Transcript
with prices for the same articles today as
furnished by a well known Boston retail
grocery. Except in the items OF meats
the prices of today are found to be in all
cases lower than those Of the former time.
the differences ranging from small to
large percentages
The prices Of meats and meat deriva-
tiyes are in all cases considerably higher
than formerly. And while the prices OF
other articles than food bid fair to be-
come lower, at least in instances. there
is no chance, or the smallest chance. that
the prices of meat In this country Will
ever again reach the former low levels.
The comparison does not show that the
notion of the high cost or living IS
delusion. But it does point the way 70
an adjustment that VII fairly cope with
that high cost. The meat proportion in
diet has been too large dietetically and Is
now too large economically. Inat pro-
portion should and must be reduced
The nearer science comes to the under.
health and what produces pOisons in the
human system, senility and death, the
clearer the truth becomes that very
little meat is enough to supply the pro-
tie d demands OF the DOOy, dIiu that al
the surplus IS not merely an excess that
must be gotten rid of by the body, but
generates a positive poison
Some meat is conducive to health and
vitality. But much meat is breeder
of noxious acids and poisoner of the
health.
II every family in America were to cut
down its meat consumption in degree
to correspond W tin the advance n the
prices FOR all meat products, the general
health would improve, the span of life
would lenethen. the physical happiness
of the average man would be hei2 htened

In the Salt River Valley.

From the Providence Journal.
An early Arizonan declared that all
his section needed to make II paradise
was water and good society. The flip
pant reioinder to this boast may also DC
recalled. The forty-eighth state now has
water. and the shooting iron is no longer
conspicuous as an emblem of its civiliza-
ton. The art of the Mormons. derived
from ancient Egypt. is being applied to
arid Arizona by the government. In that
semi-tropical latitude the earth is be-
ginning to yield in competition with
southern California and Florida. Eastern

Eton Toppers.

From the London Chronicle.
Any attempt to abolish the Elton top hat
would have been sure at any time of re-
sistance from one source-the halter. In
A. D. Coleridge's Elton in the Forties
some explanation is given Of the reasons
why bill for seven hats in one hall
could be sent in by Saunders: ihese
were not all worn out in customary OBJ
servances. for they had served as tenn
porary wicke.s at stump one ball. or had
been used accidentally as cushions IN

hats smashed by mischievous elders -

Mr.. Thomas indicated that he considers
the establishment of these offices an eva

this fact 1t is doubtful if loans made by
them upon applications filed in the Dis
trict could be enforced in the local courts
He stated that il is his intention to test
the loan shark law, recently enacted
by Congress, to determine whether the
alleged practice of loan companies in re-
ceiving applications here and paying out
the money in Virginia Is valid. and that
