MR.. McADOO'S AMBITION.

There are those who claim to be in
the confidence of Secretary McAdoc
who say that a great injustice is be
ing done him in charging that he has
his eyes on the Presidency and that
he is utilizing his powerful posts to
mat end These men would have us
believe that this man has no political
ambitions whatever, that all his hopes
and thoughts are centered on the plan
to perfect the coordination of all the
railroads of the country and eventual.
ly hand them to the people for good
and that this accomplishment is his
Crowning ambition
This is rather difficult to believe
1t is no disgrace for any American
I" nurse Presidential ambitions. and
We have thought that the men VINO
were too big to even consider accept
lnE the Presidency all belonged to a
former and better day. Come to think
OF II, however, we do recall the fell
low who, according to Champ Clark.
in a spirited debate in Congress sew
e al years ago likened himself unto
Henry Clay, saying Il would rather
be right than President" Which de-
Claimer provoked his sarcastic OPP
ponent to say: Don't worry You've
got no chance to be either"
And so with Mr. McAdoo. His
chances for the Presidency, even be
fore he took control OF the railroads,
We're few and far removed. And since
his accession to the transportation
throne of the country we fail to see
wherein he has improved his chances
in the slightest degree. True. he has
been making a big noise with his rail
way administration, and attained sew
eral admirable results but at a ire
menfOus cost to the country in dollars
and cents, and at incalculable incon-
venience and injury to the travelingI
and shipping public, Accepting his
VoluminouS reports for what they are
worth, we learn of the great saving
that has been effected in train miles
and of the great increase in ton miles.

is no sign that his administration is

ownership is desirable.

REGULAR HABITS.
They Go Long Way Toward Building
Up Good Health.

They Go Long Way Toward Building
Up Good Health.
Regular habits for retiring must be
considered as one Of the best methods
for securing good sleep.
The human body has a wonderful
periodicity In all its spontaneous ac-
lions, and by studying these much of
the machinery Of health may be made
to work smoothly.
Witness one habit Of waking at a
certain hour to which we have been &C.
customed.
Regularity In eating Is most impor-
tant for health. The digestive tract
will respond at regular times just as
other habits will repeat themselves.
Proper food properly digested win do
much for ones health and happiness.
It is mistake to eat too much.
We should try and enjoy our meals
by paying attention to the taste OF
food. Do not gulp it down. 1t should
be masticated and tasted so as to stim-
ulate those nerves which reflect their
sense on the other nerves controlling
the glands Of digestion.
When you feel indigestion after eat
ing meal note the ingredients eaten
and should it repeat itself try to con-
vict the guilty food and dismiss 1t from
your dietary.
Don't make eating task, but make
it pleasure, so that the food will d.
gest and be assimilated and applied to
the different necessities Of the acttvt-
ties of life.
Youth demands greater variety and
quantity Of food than does old age and
especially does 1t require more protein
and meat.
Learning what foodstuffs best suit Is
one of the great educational tasks man
has before him, for he no longer has
the intuition Of the lower animals. The
latter seem to inherit sense that d.
reefs them what is best for their body
wants. The vast majority Of animals
can differentiate between poisonous
and nonpoisonous foodstuffs.-Commis-
sioner of Health DR.. Samuel g. Dixon
OF Pennsylvania.
