EATING AND CHEWING.
Importa nee of Long and Thorough Mas
tication of Food.

Importa nee of Long and Thorough Mas
tication Of Food.
"The idea prevails in most minds"
says a prominent physician, that the
purpose of chewing food thoroughly is
to break it up into small particles, with
the main idel in mind that small par
ticles are easily digestible, while large
particles are impossible or difficult to
digest. That idea is incorrect.
at has been shown in the laboratory
that a cube of meat which measures
an inch will digest almost as quickly
as one which measures one-fourth OF
an inch. A dog will swallow piece OF
meat three inches or four inches long,
and almost as thick, without chewing
it at all. Yet a dog seldom has indi-
gestion, except when some food fad
dist or fanatic tries to make the brute
less brutal by turning naturally car
nivorous canine into a vegetarian anil
NAL.
"The point is that thorough mastica-
ton makes digestion more easy not
because the food is broken up into finer
particles, but because food held in the
mouth a great length of time and more
carefully masticated has usually mixed
with it a greater amount Of saliva and
its ptyalin ferment for the digestion Of
starchy elements. To hold food in the
mouth until it is thoroughly masticated
requires q certain amount of attention
which, by the way, is the all important
thing in the digestion Of foods. This
attention people do not always give.
Saliva does not flow well when your
mind is not on your eating. Cincin-

Judge Babst granted a divorce to-
day to Ora Houser from Ode Houser
on the ground of gross neglect and
failure to provide. They were mar
ried at Celina in 10 and divorced in
Wyandot county, March 4, 1916 but
were remarked in Bucyrus, November
4 1916. After the second marriage,
a ceaseless round Of boarding houses
and rented rooms was her portion,
declared Mrs. Houser, and she was
humiliated constantly by having peo-
pie calling trying to collect the rent
She gets custody of the children, $500
alimony and $4 a week for the sup
port of the children. In addition to
these little items, oHuser is charged
with payment of the costs.-Bucyrus

Caribou of Alaska,

The chief food of the caribou Of
Alaska is reindeer moss, of greenish
white color, which is scattered over the
bills and mountains of Alaska. Their
favorite feeding grounds are on the
treeless and semitreeless parts of the
territory, including the tundras along
the coast of the Arctic ocean, and
down to the Pacific side Of the Alaska
peninsula. They scatter widely in
summer and collect in herds in the
fall. Each herd has its leader, and it
is said that if the leader is killed the
rest of the herd becomes panic stricken
and stampedes back and forth until
another animal takes the lead

Tests on a model Of the naval collier
Neptune made in the wind tunnel of
the Washington navy yard by Naval
Constructor William McEntee show
that if this vessel were steaming
against a thirty mile wind at IA knots
an hour it would require about ITO
horsepower to overcome the resistance
Of the wind. This is about 20 per cent
of the power necessary to prOpel her
through the water.

BUSY
Getting Their Household Effects Out
and Failed to Send in Alarm
Two Fires Yesterday

An ugly blaze in the attic Of the
Shambaugh house, corner Mill and
Wayne streets, caused the fire lad
dies bit of work yesterday noon.
The house is occupied by w. A.
Nichols and family and Henry Boroff
and family. Neither carried any in
surance on their household goods and
in their excitement began removing
their furniture without notifying the
department of the fire.
The delayed alarm caused the blaze
to get considerable headway and
when the laddies arrived the entire
roof was ablaze. The upper part of
the building was badly burned and
the entire structure damaged from
smoke and water.
The loss will be about seven or
eight hundred dollars. The furni-
ture of both parties was all removed.
The fire originated from a defective
fue.

CLUbMEN DENY
REGISTRATION
HELP REFUSED

That members Of the University
club did not refuse to help in the
work of registration day for large
number we're employed throughout
the day and one of the two men re,
ferred to by Judge Perry was already
engaged at the time of the request is
the statement and denial made today
by Robbins B. Anderson, president
OF the club.
Anderson's statement fellows:
THE attack on the members Of the
University club in this mornings Ad.
vertiser for failure to respond tC
Judge Perry's request to assist in the
work of registration is so totally at
variance with the facts that the gov
errors of the club nave asked me to
make a statement in answer to it.
Il asked Judge Perry this morning
If he had been correctly quoted and
he said that the incidents described
by him, including the jeering reply of
one man, happened at another club in
the city, except that he did visit the
University club and asked the only
two men he found there to help and
that these two men declined to assist.
! then asked the two members in ques.
ton and they informed me that when
Judge Perry asked them to help one
Of them Immediately replied asking
how long Judge Perry would need him,
because in three-Quarters OF an hour
be was due in his own precinct to
assist in the same work for the rest
Of the day. Judge Perry thereupon
said something to the effect that he
could get helpers elsewhere and ran
out quickly before the other man
could make any reply at all.
AT the very time Judge Perry
called at the University club three
members of the club were in another
part of the building, two of whom
had just few minutes before volun-
teered their services to Judge Perry.
which had been declined by him for
the reason that he then thought
there were plenty of workers, and the
third Of whom had volunteered in his
own precinct the same morning and
his services Ieclined for the same
reason.
Many of the members of the Uni,
yersity club were active yesterday in
the registration work, and so far as
l have been able to find out no mem.
Der declined to help in any way"
Members of the Commercial Club
are also incensed over the reported
remarks of Judge Perry as they feel
they have been untustly criticized.
Many of the clubs members were &C.
lively engaged in the work and if the
request for help had been made in a
proper way it would have met with
instant acquiescence they say The
pool room, according to Charles r.
Frazier, one of the board of COVER
nors, was no place to make the re-
quest
