PLAIN FOOD BEST.

Without special training to that end,
II would be impossible for any Of US to
form an adequate idea of the proper
tons, the general plan or the relation
ship of the several parts of building
in which we might be living, but Of
which we had never seen the outside.
To secure anything approximating
clear mental picture Of structure 1t
Is necessary for most of us to view its
several sides from sufficient distance
to get true perspective. Better still,
we might carefully inspect and study
the architects sketch of the edifce
drawn to scale. BY this latter plan we
are enabled most easily to form in our
minds picture showing the general
relationship of the several parts and
to adjust to them our knowledge of the
inside Of the structure.
In our endeavors to grasp a sutf1-
cient knowledge of the laws of the uni
verse in which we exist and of which
we are a constituent part, In order
that we may live In a state of health
and happiness for the full period Of
time allowed to our species, we are
confronted with a similar dilemma.
We are too close to be able to get
true perspective showing all the rela-
tonships Of the many parts and to
comprehend how each one in turn
joins with and rests on others, Just
as brick on brick and layer on layer a
massive building is raised.

The dog was claimed by two men,
and Magistrate McQuade, sitting in
police court, with Solomonlike wisdom
determined to let the dog decide for
himself. But there was hitch in the
CANNES choosing, and the magistrate
said that dog that could not pick his

he sent the terrier to the property

We have noted that most of our
serious diseases, and also ricketts,, ar
rested development and the like, are
closely identified with anaemia; that
anaemia in turn Is closely identified
with the oxygen carrying capacity of
the blood and that this function de-
ponds on the presence of a pigment
known as hematin and a protein form
ing very complex substance, haemo-
globin. Haemoglobin, next to proto-
plasm, Is unquestionably the most i'm
portant organic substance OF verte-
brate life, and In conjunction with the
stroma-the spongy, colorless frame
work of the corpuscle-with which 1t
Is associated Is an active functioning
protein. the main function OF which is
to convey oxygen from the external
organs Of respiration to the internal
organs and tissues In general.
Specific respiratory substances are
essential constituents of all living or
ganisms, and they are found univer.
sally distributed throughout plant and
animal life. These substances are d.
vided into two groups. the metal
bearing and the metal free, and the
former may contain manganese, cop
per or iron. For the most part they
are colored, so far as Is known. The
blood of worms is yellow, red or bright
green; that Of crustaceans is blue;
that Of mollusks is white; that Of In
sects is dusky brown. and the blood
Of vertebrates, excepting amphioxus,
Is red. In plant life chlorophyl is pre-
eminently the pigment concerned In
the exchange Of oxygen and carbon
dioxide, while in animal life haemo-
globin occupies an analogous place;
but they are undoubtedly very differ
ent in their manner of functioning.
In each kingdom the major pigment
may be represented or supplemented
by physiologically allied bodies which
may or may not be closely related
chemically. Chlorophyl in granular
form has been found In large num-
Der Of invertebrates and vertebrates
and haemoglobin lie also distributed
among the invertebrates in sporadic
and inexplicable way. Haemoglobin
may be present in one small group Of
muscles and absent from all the rest
Of the body. Ray Lancaster states:
Wherever increased facilities for oxi-
dization are requisite, haemoglobin
may make its appearance in response;
where such facilities can be dispensed
with or are otherwise supplied, haemo-
giobin may cease to be developed"
This explains the phenomena of the
blood adaptation to different attitudes
and is subject for thought for the ar
Management Of sleeping quarters.

Obviously it is impossible for us to
stand outside and view our universe
from distance as we would a build
ing. And for most of us it is very diff
ficult to understand our relations to
and absolute dependence on what we
consider "immaterial" outside factors
as presented by our astronomers, ply
sicians and chemists. simply because
we lack the training necessary to en-
able US to detach our minds from our
persons and. looking in from the out
side, comprehend how stupendous are
what may be to them comparatively
simple statements. We get started
wrong and find 1t exceedingly difficult
to unlearn and forget much that we
acquired in our youth, and we easily
become impatient with the step by
step process necessary to reach solid
understanding Of conditions.
