NEW YORK, Oct. 15-Col Theodore
Roosevelt is reducing
The colonel is what is technically
described as patient" at Jack Coop
cr's health farm at Stamford, Conn.
There is absolutely nothing the matter
S'rh him, except the extent of his
Eirth.
Leaving Oyster Bay early Wednesday
tle coolnel motored alone to Stamford.
iEte planned to keep his purpose from
the public. But yesterday he was seen
IN street car in Stamford, and last
light scores of letters arrived at the
stamford postoffice, having been read
tressed at oyster Bay
Pefore he left his home town, Mr.
Roosevelt confided to some neighbors
hat he was not feeling quite upto the
marx" and had to rid himself of bit
Of superfuous flesh. He was asked #
his recent speakink trip through the
middle west, in which he attacked Sem
stcr LaFollette, had not helped him.
Not Bit" he answered 81 didn't
lose pound
No one could reach Mr.. Roosevelt 1T
his retreat today to ascertain two i'm
Tortant facts-what his weight is and
what he hopes it will be. Friends OF
the colonel say he tips the scales at
about conservative 20 pounds. and
%Ould like to take off about Is pounds.
Jack Cooper's method of accom-
Tlishing what the colonel desires is
through strenuous exercise and maH-
age. Boxing gloves and Indian CLUBS
re substituted fer drugs No fancy
nenues are served.
Mr.. Roosevelt, it is expected, will
emain at the farm at least two weeks.
1e may make speech at Stamford in
ehalf of republican candidate for
representative.

ROOSEVELT MAY
ENTER THE ARMY
FACT THAT HE is TRAINING DOWN
TO REGULATION PHYSICAL CON-
DiFi0N MAY HAVE THIS SIGNI-
ElCANCE.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 15.-Ofic-
ials of the war department declare they
know nothing about the report that
the powers here now favor Col. Roose-
velt's proposal to raise division Of
volunteer troops.
At the same time, officials shy away
from the question whether the colonel
wall be given commission in the ma
tional army. Secretary of War Baker
refused to comment on the subject.
The fact that the colonel is busily
Engaged in reducing his waistline, has
led to the belief that he will be made
a major general and be sent to France.

IndustriaI. strong.

The following analysis of the New
York market situation was received yes
terday afternoon by W. b. Hibbs & Co.
from a New York correspondent:
THE total transactions in stocks for
the short session today were only %, 900
shares. Most Of this trading was in
United States Steel and the other lead
ing Industrial stocks. They were the
strong features during the first hours
trading when prices made an advance
averaging about a point over yesterday s
closing under the lead of United States
Steel. Mexican Petroleum, and the Sugar
stocks and the various railroad equip
ment issues.
"On the other hand, the gas stocks
and the motor group were weak features
on some further scattered liquidation
and bear pressure. Toward the end Of
the day most OF the gains in the gem
eral industrial list were lost on the even
Ing up over the weekend by local trad
ers, except in United States Steel, which
continued strong and closed near the
best price OF 11s S-s.
The sharp break in P. o. Gas from
30 Ia to 81, its closing prices. was
due to the dividend being reduced
from the basis of per cent per an
mum to per cent by . declaration of
only 1 per cent for the current quar-
ter. This caused the sympathetic de-
cline in Consolidated Gas toward the
close. from 116 "a to I13, the lowest
quotation II has reached for q long
time This company's annual report,
ended December 81, showed o surplus
for the year after deducting all fixed
charges and dividends equal to about
SIS per cent on its capital stock
against about 8 Ia per cent the pre-
vious year, 50 that 1t Is not believed
its per cent dividend Is likely to be
reduced despite the continuation of
the movement for lower rates for cleo
tricity.
The course of the market next
week will be influenced largely on
whether the United States Treasury
will decide that the exigencies OF the
requirements OF the war situation
necessitates that as much as a total
issue of $4,000, 5000 United States
government 31-2 per cent bonds be
authorized Immediately or the first in
stallment be kept at $4,000, 900, 900.
The actual clearing house bank
statement made an unfavorable show
ing with the surplus decreasing $34.-
T5s, ,O00."

the rise in Mexican Petroleum, in the

That was in Consolidated Gas.

HAVE YOU TRIED SOY BEANS?
By FRANCEs MARsHALL.

Soy beans are urged by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture as an economical
food. They are not yet easy to get
and You may have difficulty in finding
them at your local grocer's, but prob
ably before long they will be a com
mon food commodity in this country.
For the farmers of the land have
been urged TO raise them, and the
housewives of the land have been
urged to cook them.
Any Of Us who have known much
OF the food of the Orient, and many
Of US who have eaten in Chinese res
taurants. have realized that the soy
bean was one Of the staple foods of
the east. In Japan, where cows milk
Is scarce, the soy bean is even made
to produce a sort of milk that is
much used by the poor. The beans
are eaten as vegetable, they are
made into soup. they are made into
cheese. and they are made into the
famous soy sauce. much used In Chi
nese and japanese cooking to give
flavor to the more tasteless foods,
such as rice.
One Of the really interesting things
s5out SOY beans is that they are still
In the experimental stage, so far as
3 to say. not many ways of cooking
them have been worked out in this
country. And each hOusekeeper who
can get hold OF these beans must, to
certain extent, experiment with
them.
They can be used much as any other
beans can be used. Perhaps 1t would
be better to say that almost any
recipe calling for lima beans can be
applied TO soy beans. And the meal
made from soy beans can be substi-
tuted in a recipe calling for corn
meal. About a quarter or a third of
soy bean meal can satisfactorily be
used, the rest being wheat -four.
The soy bean contains a small
amount of starch, comparatively, and
very large amount Of oil or fat.
1t was pointed out the other day by
\ Chinese woman physician in this
country who sees in the soy bean q
useful future in this country, that this
vegetable needs the addition of no
butter or other fat in its cooking, as
It Is IN itself rich in fats. These
beans also contain a large amount Of
protein.
In some parts Of the country soy
beans have for long time been used
as food for cattle. They may well be
used in all parts of the country be-
Tore long for food for everybody.

The next move will be to restore

drastic sufferings have opened the
the nightmare of Mephistophelian

Psychology, as conceived by the
modern Prussian mind, is about as
