If Eve eight and Adam 50, certainly
the total will be go.
Scientific men, however, on the
strength Of the theory that the ante

VARIETIES OF HUMAN FOOD
Employed for the Purpose OF Pro-
Vidlna Nourishment

1t is interesting to consider some Of
the more or less odd material which
man has been led to choose for the
purpose Of food. Environment, of
course, must be a factor in regard
to this choice, and necessity also. 1t
is hard to imagine that earth would
be used as food, and yet such has
been the case in many countries dur
ing famine. The Laplanders mix earth
with their bread, the Russian uses
'rOck -four" and the poorer classes
in Hungary (where now nearly every
one is poor are driven occasionally
to eat an earth which contains only
a trifiing proportion of nOurishing
principles.
The use of seaweed as food is an
example of the determining factors
OF both necessity and environment.
It is not a little astonishing to find
that a number of seaweeds are really
edible and nOurishing. Perhaps the
best known example is laver, which
is a kind of stew made from weed,
an algae. The laver made on the De-
vOnshire coast of England, and to be
found in some London shops, is said
to be excellent. The sea algae, in
deed, prove on analysis to contain a
considerable proportion of heterogeneous
matter, and as they are usually ten
der, they are digestible. There are
also several sea MOSES which are es-
teemed for their esculent properties.
Agar sugar is another example of
sea yielding a nutrient jelly. 1t is
supposed that the edible birds nest
so highly esteemed when prepared in
the form of soup by the Chinese has
its origin in the birds feeding on
agar sugar. On the other hand, it is
said that the substance of which the
nest is composed is secreted from GER
tain glands which are developed dur
ing the nest-building season, but which
lose this function afterward.

BASIC LAW CHANGES ON WAY
Nine Amendments Moving Toward
Passage, According to Secretary OF
State-Three Measures to Be
Voted on in November.

Madison, July 26.-Nine amend
ments to the Wisconsin constitution
are well on their way toward passage,
according to statistics given out by
Secretary of State Elmer S. Hall.
Three amendments have been passed
by two legislatures and will be pre-
sented to the voters at the November
elections. Five others, passed by the
1921 legislature, will be advertised
once week for three months, starting
July %, and presented to the 1873
legislature for second passage and pre-
sentation to the voters. The three
amendments to be voted on in NOvem-
Der follow: 1. For the repeal of the
present constitutional provision and
allow sheriffs to succeed themselves.
2. To allow the legislature to pass a
law providing that in civil jury cases,
the vote of not less than hve-
siXthS but less than all shall be Sutfl-
cient for a valid verdict. Present law
requires unanimous agreement. 3. 10
authorize cities or other municipalities
to incur, besides the Indebtedness Of
per cent of their tax valuation now
allowed, for acquiring public utilities.
An amendment allowing the legisla-
ture to raise the salary of the COVER
nor above $1,000 year was passed
by two legislatures, but the 1921 ses-
sion neglected formally to present
it to the people," so it cannot be
placed on the ballot until next year.
The "city home rule" amendment, also
passed twice, was declared by the state
Supreme court to have been advertised
IN a wrong manner and will have to be
advertised and passed again before it
can be put to vote. Four other
amendments to be advertised and pre-
sented to the 1928 legislature are: 1.
To allow the legislature to authorize
the choosing of additional Circuit
court judges in counties in excess of
$4,000 population. 2. To raise salaries
of legislators to $3.50 from $500. 3. To
allow the state to borrow money for
acquiring, preserving and developing
the forests of the stare 4. To allow
the state to borrow not exceeding one
fifth of one mill upon the dollar Of the
last state assessment for aiding land
settlement and improvements
