EATING SUGAR
tTacoma Ledger)

(Tacoma Ledger)
 In order to obtain an idea of how much sugar @ human being can assimilate without injury poison squad 70 medical students has been formed at the University Of Pennsylvania under the direction of Dr. Aonzo D. Taylor professor of physiological chemistry The students to eat increasing quantities of sugar and the effects lo be noted as completely as the present advancement of science win permint
 Physicians and others would be glad to have the question of the value of food settled. though doubtful whether the poison squad" win dispose of the controversy Physicians not of mind. Some will tell you not sugar others to eat an you like while stn others will advise temperance. Like other food sugar Is probably good for some persons and bad for others.
 But good or bad Americans consume on immense pounds per capita in 1915 That did not Include the natural sweets In fruits, berries and other foods.
 Only two countries. England and Denmark consum. ed more sugar per capita in 1913 For England the consumption was 9552 pounds. and for Denmark, sSS6 pounds. The consumption In German 1895; Aus tro-Huugary 2S12; France. 4S41 Spain. 162l switz- erland 7724 Russia. 243S; Italy 1O76; Sweden 57o9; Norway 45S3 The variation In countries that border each other is noteworthy indicating a great diff ference in eating habits
 Sugar Is much cheaper than 1t used to be and the cheaper is the more In earlier times it was used sparngy. spoonful in cup of coffee was re- garded as great plenty" but nowadays. it is not uncommon for persons three four spoontus to cup of coffee.
 Health authorities considering whether the ex- travagant of sugar is of the prevalence of certain diseases and the Investigation now going on at the University of Pennsylvania may bring the answer nearer.

JUST LEr IT SWING!
ERNNfENT

Each week the pendulum oi progress swings over wider area" is the phrase in which on experienced trade reviewer sums up the course Of American com merce and industry. Other striking pharases are:
 "There ls no step backward; few dscordant notes mar Che cheerful tone Of reports from che leading een- ters more new enterprises starting than for sey- erai years: confidence is luther strengthened"
 There's lot og good counsel in these words for those who feel that while prosperity may be growing for others isn't coming their way. Maybe 1t isn't- yet But 1t may be just around the corner Why not push on to meet it2
 In any event, the man who cannot see the pendu- ium Of prosperity swinging bis way can refrain from making his disappointment and his impatlence cheek Go its wider and wider swinging IT he is unable to march in the procession he can at least hand out word Of cheer to those who toiing along In It's ranks. In the words ol an old song.
 If you cannot with Che column climb the noun
 tain steep and high.
 You can stand within the valley as the multi
 tudes pass by
 You can chant in stately measure as they slow
 iy pass along
 Though they may forget the singer. they will
 not forget the song.
 When your country in general Is on the up grade it ls only a question of time when you will feel much oi the nit your merits deserve. Sooner or later che pendulum of prosperity win swing your way you watch your chances and are ready to grasp your opportunities
 So don't regret the prosperity Of others and neither by word or deed seek to hamper that growth t you cannot ride to fortune on prospers pendulum you at ieas, stand watchfui and let t swing
