Effects of Overeatinq.

Oyereating is assigned by Dr. F. E. Faber of Copenhagen as the real cause of much of the misery for which the uric acid diathesis'' is usually held re. sponsible From a list of 2S3 corpu- lent patients he finds that chronic rheumatism, lumbago, varicose veins and constipation are far more com mon among the former, and that nor tality from heart and kidney disease and apoplexy is also chiefly among the heayyWeights. The effects of reduced diet have proved remarkable Rheu- matism, neuralgia, etc. have shown rapid improvement when the change has been persisted in to the extent of lessening weight. and chronic rheu- matism-though resisting such treat ment as drugs, hot baths and massage has been relieved permanently dur ing moderation, returning with any new excess. High blood pressure is lowered by the dieting. The superfiu- ous flesh is not the cause Of the rheu- matism, etc, but both the extra weight and the attendant disorders seem to be due to the habit of oyerindulgence.

Children of Sick Mothers.

Many a mother who has been urged to submit to an operation to restore her to the health which is necessary for proper care of her family has been distracted at the thought of being obliged to go to hospital and leave her children without proper care dur ing her absence. Especially is this true among the very poor where most of the relatives. male or female. leave 10 go out to work. or, perhaps, have large families of their own to feed.
 To meet this emergency an excel. lent charity is being financed by some wealthy women in Gotham, wbo have established a nursery where young sters ranging from a few months to five or six years can have trained care while their mothers. with easy minds, are trying to regain their own strength.

NEED ONLY DEFINITE RULES
Really Little Seems to Stand in the Way of the Creation of Uni
 versal Language.

If an editor should print bad Eng fish he would lose his position. Many editors are using and printing bad methods of graphic presentation, but they hold their jobs just the same. The trouble at present is that there are no standards by which graphic presentations can be prepared in ac- cordance with definite rules so that their interpretation by the reader may be both rapid and accurate. It is cer- tain that there will evolve for meth ods of graphic presentation few use ful and definite rules which will cor respond with the rules of grammar for the spoken and written language. The rules of grammar for the English Ian guage are numerous as well as com plex. and there are about as many ex- captions as there are rules. Yet we all try to follow the rules in spite of grammar of graphic presentation are so simple that remarkably small number of rules would be sufficient to give universal language. It is are possibilities of the graphic presen- tation becoming an international lan- guage, like music which is now writ ten by such standard methods that sheet music may be played in any country.-Engineeri Magazine.

Candy Drunks.

The matinee girl who eats pound of chocolates at the theater and then has to consult the family physician the next day is merely getting over the effects of a drunk There is no alcohol in the candy, but the effects are similar. Too much sugar in the stomach will ferment, just as in c dis tiller's vat, and the effect on the sys. tenn is probably the same as if the in- toxicant had been taken in the form of wine or whisky.
 A tolerate amount of chocolate or of any other sweet will have no dele terious effect, as the internal organs are prepared to handle sugar in small quantities. But it is the abuse, not the use, of candy that causes a mild degree of intoxieation, just as the abuse of liquor. not the use, that brings down on the drinkers head all the sorrows and sufferings of drunk enness

Oliver Godsmith's Dead Body Never In Danger of Being Seized by
 His Creditors.

More or less credence has always seemed to be given to the story that Goldsmith's debts disrupted the ar engagements made for his funeral His biographers have not been above dwelling on this unhappy report, Now comes Case and Comment with the legal side of it, and makes out what appears to be clear case. A public funeral in Westminster abbey was de signed, the pall-bearers had been se- lected from the distinguished circle to which Goldsmith belonged and then the rapidly maturing arrangements came to a sudden halt. The public funeral was given up without explana- tion The burial took place simply, almost secretly, in the ground of the Temple church. None of the old literary friends was present. This strange change In procedure has been explained by the statement that friends feared that creditors would in- terfere with the public funeral by seizing the body, right which 1t is alleged the creditors had under the law at that time. This explanation has been reiterated until 1t is quite generally believed As a matter of fact the story Is without foundation, because the law of England never gave a right of this nature to cred itors. The story has also been quite industriously circulated about Richard Brinsley Sheridan. who likewise died heavily in debt. Whatever it was that changed the arrangements of public funera' for Oliver Goldsmith, 1t may be safely asserted as a legal propo- sition that there was not any likeli- hood that the dead body would be seized by creditors Goldsmith was buried by his lawyer friends and neighbors within the boundaries of their own domain He had lived his happiest days among them, and it was after all more fitting that he should lie down to his long rest in the midst of them. rather than in a garish and
 splendid tomb in Westminster abbey.

Washinqton's World Prominence.

Washington today has an interna. tional importance held by no other capital city in the world. It is the seat of administration and legislation for loo, 0,000,o00 people constituting the most progressive and powerful of the countries neutral in the war. There ambassadors of all the warning na- tons are located, and the opportuni. ties for diplomatic interchange, when the peacetalking time comes, are no. where better. Besides, it is to the representative of the United States in the capitals of the warning nations that their interests have been respective ly committed The business of these countries so far as they have any. other than war. with one another is in American hands From Washing. ton, at the very outbreak of the war, went messages from the president to each of the countries rendering the offices of this government in a peace full settlement of the disagreements

HARD LINES FOR NOVELIST
Story of How Hawthorne Was Disered- ited by Ignorant Lawyer as
 Witness.

J. Van Vetchen Olcott, treasurer of the American Peace and Arbitration league, said to New York reporter: The advocates of war think to si- lence us with the claim that human nature is too evil. too savage, to rise above rapine and wholesale mur. der. We'll, they are as silly in that as the lawyer who cross-examined Hawthorne
 Hawthorne was called up as wit ness in a criminal case i'll Salem, and the cross-examining lawyer for the defense said to him.
 "'You are a novelist, believe"
 "'Yes, sir.
 What was your last Novel;?
 "'"The Marble Faun.
 "."The Marble Pawn" eh? And Is there word of truth in The Marble Pawn" my man?'
 "It-but it. stammered Hawthorne lit is a work of fiction
 "Never mind that thundered the lawyer. Never mind that. Answer my question, yes or no, Is there a word of truth in this Marble Pawn or whatever you call it?'
 Er-no, said Hawthorne.
 ''Very good said the lawyer. You admit there's not word of truth in the whole long 400-page book. He glanced triumphantly at the jury. That will do, sir You may step down. We have no further use for you in this court. sir

It's Breath Is Death.

One variety of the orchid which grows in the tropics is known as the vampire orchid. This flower has a wonderful odor which is peculiarly at tractiYe to animals. When a beast approaches the flower the odor nar- cotizes him and he sinks languidly by the tree trunk to which the flower Is clinging. Then the flower stretches down its long, green tentacles and sucks out the blood of the poisoned animal. The beast never awakens from its sleep, while the erstwhile pale dower takes on soft velvet flush.

Rare Plants in New Zealand.

Nowhere in the world" writes a student of botany. are found such rare plants and trees as in New Zea- land. It is declared that no average florist would find himself at home in the forests of that country Every thing is different Another peculiarly of the country is the fact that al- though so close together, the flora of New Zealand ard that of Australia are totally different. New Zealand has very few Towering trees and plants. Most of the wild flowers are white."

Five balls were put out of the park
yesterday. Kauff of the Hoosiers put
two over right, Zwilling and Beck one
each, and Wilson sent one over the

achievement.
Once more the Fed race is tighten

Again the fact must be emphasized
that Tinker's outfielders are garden

hit. In two games yesterday they
maced out an even dozen hits, which
is an able performance. Zwilling got
five, Wickland four and Flack three.

But he has too much ViriIity to

Physician Says it lnterferes with Di-

Hardening Arteries.

Among other physiological effects
OF coffee drinking il is found that
this beverage with its drug, caffeine
is one of the causGs of premature Old
age, according to Dr. j. H. Kellogg
of the Battle Creek Sanitarium. He
SAYS:
The evil effects of coffee on all
persons Of whatever age may be
briefly summed up as follows:
First, the tannic acid in coffee
interferes with digestion.
Second, the caffeine in coffee is a
nerve poison.
Third, the effects produced are
similar to those CT alcohol When
long used, the result is damage to
the poison destroying glands par
ticularly the thyroid gland, liver and
the kidneys. as a result hardening OF
the arteries and premature old age.
All medical authorities forbid the use
of caffeine or coffee to persons whose
arteries are hardened or who have
high blood pressure. This condition
is always present in elderly people.
Coffee Is particularly bad for
Young children. because the thyroid
gland and other poison n-destroyins
