Temperance in Diet,

Abstemiousness in diet is one of the
very soundest of the means that are
recommended for youth preservation
and longevity. Extreme temperance in
diet as means to long life was wide
ly proclaimed some centuries ago by
an Italian philosopher who claimed to
have lived on one egg and a little wine
each day. AS meats and wine were
then considered the sole sources Of
strength, the gentleman doubtless
thought it unnecessary to tell us how
much bread and vegetables he ate. But
despite this evident omission his prin-
ciple was sound.-Physica Culglre.

 A decision is expected speedily on the constitutionality of the drafs law. under which 600.000 men are npw in service. Should five justices ySes the law invalid, all these young meneould return to their homes.

 There is an understanding that the supreme court will give these meas ures right of way.
 Before the court also are some of the most important trust busting cases the United States ever started. If all were won, the so-called steel, harvest CT, shoe machinery, kodak, anthracite, lake towage corn products trusts would be compelled to follow the Stan dard Oil Company into "dissolving."
 But there are rumors - nothing so unsanctified as a "hunch" or a tip" could come from the court itself, of 1 course - that the court will just natu- rally fail to reach these cases. l The executive branches of the gov ernment feel the trusts can be most ' practically dealt with through price fixing and profit taxing.
 Certain officials of the executive de- partments hope the supreme court will let things go until at least the war is over.

 Referring to the matter, the Port land Telegram says:
 Portland has been given an oppoi- tunity to bid on the big Alaska mail carrying contracts. through the efforts of Postmaster Myers. Specifications for the contracts were received by Myers recently from Washington, wherein the routes, the mail schedules and bonds required are set forth. Cop ies will be sent those interested.
 Heretofore Seattle has had the ex elusive privilege of bidding on these contracts because Alaska mails have at all times been forwarded from the i, Sound.
 Representations have been made however, that Portland may be in DO sition to operate steamers between l Portland and the north before nex July, when the new contracts become effective. The contracts run iron July 1, 1918. to June 30, 1922, and il case a steamship line is placed il operation, the mails would go far to ward meeting it's expenses. it is point ed out
