"To the committee that has m charge the splendid honors of his birthday celebmtion, MetchnikofT gave some advice on the benefits of frugal eating—the benefits of taking no alco hol, very little meat, and an abundance of well cooked green vegetables. And he ended his lecture with this crystal of wisdom: " ’Good eating makeB more pessi mists than bad luck.' ” Invitation and Answer. Mr. F. C. Phillips in his book, "My Varied L.ife,” tells how the late Sir George Honeyman, an Infamous writer, sent down from the bench to a friend of hla, a leading Q C., a little note. Not ublo to make head nor tall of it, the barrister scribbled something equally undecipherable upon a half-sheet of note paper, and passed it up to the Judge. Sir George looked annoyed, und when, the court rose, said to his friend: "What do you mean hy this? 1 asked you to “come and dine with me tonight." ''Yes,’ said the barrister, “and 1 re plied that 1 should bo extremely glad to do so.” Possible Chance.

DISAPPEARED Coffee Ails Vanish Before Postum. It seems almost too good to be true, the way headache, nervousness, Insomnia, and many other obscure troubles vanish when coffee is dis missed and Postum used as the regu lar table beverage. The reason Is clear. Coffee con tains a poisonous drug—caffeine— which causes the trouble, but I’ostum contains only the food elements In choice hard wheat with a little mo lasses.

The war that Is now raging will be the most costly ever waged and if It lajsts any considerable time will add more billions to the vast volume of debt that will be a perpetual burden on the people.

As he possesses no war experience of his own he is availing himself of the udvice of some of the older of tin* German sovereigns who have smelt powder on the battlefield instead of i in sbain lights, among them being King Louis of Bavaria, who still limps from the effect of a FruBsian bullet received in the war of 1866, and King William of Wuitemberg, and Duke Bernard of Saxe-Mciningen, both of whom wear on their bre.ast the iron Cross, bestowed upon them for feats of conspicuous gallantry under tire us young cavalry ofilcers In the Frauco German war of 1870.

He 1b renowned for the rarity of hla smiles, while such a thing us laughter 1b entirely foreign to hts character. He always has an appearance of profound gloom, and even of down right misery, tmpreHsed upon hla fat countenance. To such an extent 1b thlB the case that the kaiser always speaks of him as *d6r traurige Julius’* (the gloomy Julius), Them 1b, it must be admitted, some reason for this gloom. For Emperor William is a difficult man to satisfy in military matters, and the general is a constant subject of Imperial criticism. Not withstanding this he has managed to retain hold of his office for close upon seven years. The crown prince Is serving with the German array of invasion as a colonel, and his younger brothers, Os car and Joachim, also are at the front. When the history of Germany’s mighty naval development comes to be written one name will stand out iri boldest relief—Von Tlrplfz.

He avers ♦ he author of the dreadnauglit Is alone guilty. He disclaims persuasively the notion that the Herman fleet Is built for aggression, and he Is Irrevocably opposed to limitin'; Its development by agreements of any kind. Prince Henry of Prussia, as Inspec tor general of the navy. Is the rank ing officer of the kaiser's great ar mada. He Is a sallorman first and a prince afterward, and Is Idolized by the Herman people. It Is to Archduke Frederick that Emperor Francis Joseph has confided the chief command of his armies in the present war Very short and stocky, he Is the eldest brother of the queen mother of Rpaln, and Is on terms of the utmost Intimacy with the kaiser, and as such a frequent visitor to Potsdam, where one of his daugh ters Is married to a Prussian ofTlcer.

Indeed he spent several weeks in April last very quietly at a small resort near Carlsbad with tlen eral von Moltke, chief or the general BtufT of the German army, elaborating plans for the present Joint action of tho German and Austrian armies against Russia and France. He stands particularly high In tho confidence of his sovereign, who bus the very highest opinion of his ability. Indeed on the several occasions when he resigned hiH position as chief of the general staff In consequence of hlB differences with the late Archduke Francis Ferdinand, with whom he was ; continually at variance, the old em peror Insisted upon his remaining at his post, would not hear of his going and upheld him against his nephew.

IF ALL CABLES WERE CUT 1 Blanket of Appalling Silence Concern ing the European War Would De scend Upon America. Suppose one of the belligerent na tions of Europe grappled and cut the cables that link the new world and old, what then would be the position of America? A blanket of silence would descend i upon us. Communication by mail and the still uncertain communication by wireless would be our only source of news. Even the mall would bo liable to serious delays and Interruption, pfts ribly to complete discontinuance. Tin paralyzing effect of such isolation may be imagined. It would strike at busi ness. It would leave to the guesswork of feverish fancy the welfare of friends and relatives abroad. It would make void the columns of the newspapers on the one topic of uttermost concern to all readers, Nor is this a vain supposition. The thing Is possible indeed, not Improb able. The reason for such action would bo the fear that tidings of military movements reaching America might find their way hack to the enemy in Europe. —Chicago Evening Post The Use of Mines at 9ea The strewing of mines In other than horns waters—where th«-ir use for de fense Is one of the well recognized practices of war—Is repulsive to the ordinary instincts as to what should be permitted in warfare between civ ilized nations.
