THE SCHOOL LUNCHEON.

The schools which provide lunches
for the children are yet too few,
though success has followed them
where the work has been tried. For
the thousands of children all over the
land, in large cities and in the coun-
try, the distances are SO great that
carrying lunch is necessity
If anybody who has not prepared a
lunch basket two hundred days in the
year calls it an easy task, she has not
given the matter any thought.
II we could look into the lunch
baskets Of our working people and re-
alize what it means to work, rebuild
waste tissues, keep up body heat and
energy on the food combinations that
have gone out from homes today, we
would not marvel at the inroads Of dis
ease. divorce, suicide and crime. A
mans food largely determines what
be Is.
Our boys, as well az our girls.
should be taught in the grades the
simple food principles, how to arrange
balanced meal and how to prepare
the common foods in an economical
and wholesome manner. Then If the
lunch basket Is not filled as it should
be, the child will know how to cor
rect 1t.
A lunch for child who spends his
time in a not too we'll ventilated room
means different food than does the
same child when he Is spending the
day in the woods or open air.
The food should be simple and linn
tied in quantity. Too great variety
in each lunch is not desirable, but va
riety from day to day is absolutely
necessary to escape monotony. A
sweetmeat or two occasionally is al
ways priced, but this kind of food
should be used sparingly.
The child who sees his lunch packed
and knows just what he will have to
eat does not enjoy it with the same
zest as he who looks for something as
surprise. We never get too old or
staid not to find pleasure in the unex-
pected Wrap foods SO that one flavor
will not leaven the whole lump. Air
the basket OF box over night and keep
it fresh and sweet. 1t is possible, but
will take thought to prepare twenty,
different lunches for as many days.

NO SIGN OF RABIES.

Mayor Briant has received the fol-
lowing letter from Dr. NJ Couret, act
ing director of the Charity Hospital,
which explains itself:
Hon. A. B. Briant,
Mayor Town of ST. Francisville, La.
Dear Sir:
have failed, after careful examina-
ton, to find any evidence of rabies in
the dogs brain sent by you on the
22nd inst. But since animals may
carry the infection several days be
fore evidence of the disease can be
found in the brain, would advise that
animals bitten by this dog be carefully
watched for the next 80 days. After
this time, if no evidence of the disease
appears, the animals may then be re-
leased.
1t is always advisable that animals
suspected of having rabies be kept un-
der observation for ten days. In this
time, should the disease be dormant,
it will surely make its appearance and
the animal will die. Then, an exami-
nation of the brain, almost invariably,
shows evidence of the disease.
regret that | cannot give you abso-
lutte proof that the animal was not
mad, but henceforth, please advise
those in your community who might
be injured by suspicious animals, to
observe the dog for ten days time and
if the animal should die in this period
that the brain be shipped to me al
once for diagnosis.
Very truly yours,
M. COURET, Act. Director

CHEAPER, IF SENT DIRECT.

Many persons send their home news
paper regularly to the absent friend or
child. Do they even stop to consider
that this costs them 81 cents year,
If sent every week, not to mention the
time, thought and extra attention to
preserving the paper for that special
purpose, which is surely worth more
than dollar to the sender. Would IL
not be cheaper in the long run to sub.
scribe for the paper and have it sent
from the newspapers office?
Besides, as often happens, the send
er sends just often enough to create
an appetite for the home news, but
fails to send the paper at the time
when 1t is most wanted. In many
cases, coming under our observation
this happens to the great disappoint
ment of the receiver, but which would
not happen were he regular sub
scriber. Would 1t not therefore bt
better to give us subscription, in
stead of trusting to sending it one!

TARIFF REVISION BILL.

The House adopted the main confer
ence agreement on the tariff bill, 254
to 1903, almost strict party vote, and
by this action gave its Endorsement to
everything In the measure except the
cotton futures tax.
At the end of short, but bitter,
fight that followed the adoption OF the
report Representative Underwood, the
Democratic leaders, succeeded in car
rying the Smith-Lever cotton futures
tax amendment by vote of Ill to
1871. Democrats and Republicans alike
voted on this without regard to party,
and large portion of the Democratic
membership from Southern states join
ed in the vigorous demand that the
whole subject be carried over to an
other session of Congress.
The cotton futures tax question now
rests entirely with the Senate. The
House concurred in the Clarke Amend
ment put into the tariff bill by the Sen
| ate, but added the Smith.Lever- Under
wood plan as another amendment.
Unless the Senate will accept THU
change, which has the Endorsement o
the president, the whole cotton futures
plan again will have to be considered
in the joint conference committee ant
again reported to both houses for &C
