Touching Wood"

T7HE old custom or superstition
of touching wood" TO avert ca.
lamity is said to be derived
from the Danish custom of the men
of district, at the meeting at which
they elected their leader, touching
his weapons in token of fealty. The
annual muster. or "Wapenshaw,"
took place Immediately after the
"wapentake," so that the Kings
reeve could inspect the men and
their arms. The custom of touching
the wooden shaft of the leaders
spear doubtless took place at this
annual inspection. The ceremony of
taking the salute" at modern re-
Wow is thus claimed to be a survival
Of this ancient Danish custom.

TVTHERE does the dust come
w from? This question, which
careful housekeepers ask
themselves every day. has been
scientifically answered by investiga.
tors OF Harvard University, who have
presented their findings to the Ameri.
can Society Of Heating and ventilat,
ing Engineers.
Although the investigators did not
consider the effect of street dust on
the health OF a community, they did
make measurements Of the amount
OF dust in the air at 30 feet above the
street in different places.
At the junction of streets. where
the least dust was accumulated, the
amount in the air would equal daily
deposit OF 9ls pounds to the acre.
In another section as much as so
mounds per acre would be the daily
deposit. These measures were
taken in a windy seeason in spring.
Some interesting figures were pre-.
scented regarding the dust on paved
streets compared with unpaved
thoroughfares. 1t was found that the
air in paved streets was, on the
whole, somewhat dustier than that
of unpaved streets. averaging 43O
milligrams, against 4O2, but the bad
unpaved street was worse than the
worst Of the paved streets, so far as

Prof. Rutherford says that his ex-
periments prove clearly that tropho.

living vegetable and animal tissue.
1T is not the nuclei of protoplasm,
as some may assert" he says, but
is an even more subtle substance,
contained in the outer wall OF proto.
plasmlc cells. While present in all
cells, both animal and vegetable, the
animal trophogen is derived exclu.
sively from vegetable food. 1t Is also
conveyed in flesh foods from one ami.

in any animal or in any mineral food.

There is no doubt that the Japan

yVIHY do we not eat the flesh
w of cats, dogs, owls. eagles and


w of cats, dogs, owls, eagles and
other carnivorous creatures?
Why do we prefer. as meat food, the
flesh of cattle, hogs, sheep and other
herbiyorous animals?
Notwithstanding the fact that the
flesh Of both carnIvorous and herbiv.
erous animals is DEMONSTRATING, man
does not at all prize tho flesh of the
former as food. The reason for this
is explained in an interesting manner
by Prof. Rutledge Rutherford, the
Chicago scientist who recently dis
covered that strange food substance
known as "trophogen." which is said
TO be the one and only nutrient in
any food, possessing all the essentials
of life and bodily sustenance.
I'VE seem to have an instructive
comprehension, without exactly know
ing why" says Prof. Rutherford.
that the herbivorous animal is the
medium through which we obtain a
large amount OF our food supply from
the vegetable kingdom. Thus, when
We speak of any peoples being large
consumers of a certain cereal, we al
ways imply that the cereal is con-
sumed by the food animals. as well
as by the people themselves. For ex-
ample, cattle and hogs are often re-
ferred to as corn on the hoof. p"
In this connection. it has been
pointed out that the objection to
horse meat as a table supply, is due
TO prejudice. Those who champion
the use OF horse flesh as food, say
that the horse, an herbivorous anil
NAL, is far cleaner than the pig, and
is much less liable to disease than
the COW. In addition, they say, horse
meat is luscious and tender, and that
a round of horse not only will cost
less than an equal amount OF beef,
but will actually taste better.
Recently the board Of health OF
! New York city, in taking cosnizance
OF the high cost of living. repealed
that section OF the code which has
prohibited the sale OF horse meat and
the slaughter OF horses for food In
explanation OF the adoption OF this
resolution, Dr.. Haven Emerson, health
commissioner. calls the restriction OF
the use of the horse TO transporta.
ton an unfair discrimination against
the animal.
THE board wishes TO open the
way" says DR.. Emerson. for an in.
expensive and healthful food supply.
Hereafter, old horses, instead of be-
ing sold for their bones, which are
worth little or nothing, will be fat,
t0ned and disposed Of for meat.
I'VE have had the repeal Of this
action Of the code in view since DR..
Alderman, our chief veterinarian,
made a trip OF inspection abroad
shortly before the beginning of the
war. He reported that in Brussels a
high quality Of horse meat was sell.
ing at a slightly higher price than
Argentine beef. In Paris from $50 to
200 horses are eaten daily.
I'VE believe this new measure will
make provision for an inexpensive
meat food. There are many adyan.
tages about horsehesh. A horse never
has tuberculosis and generally is SC
free from disease as 10 need less 81
pervision than cows, hogs or sheep
There is no sanitary nor medical rea
son why horsehesh should not be
eaten. We want to make available
the same things thrifty persons have
been accustomed to abroad"
