There are mora people monkeying with the question of what to eat and how to eat It than any one person could keep track of. One of the latest Is a .et of people who have organized the. "Raw Food Society" in Chicago. The president's argument Is that "No oak ever grew from a burned acorn; parched corn will never sprout when planted; roasted chestnuts never pro duced a chestnut tree, nor were pea nuts ever grown from planting roasted peanuts. All that is life-giving In any thing is destroyed liy fire. It was nev er intended that man should eat food that had been cooked; that he should take into his syslem dead cells to re place the worn out cells cast off by the body." The above argument may bo all right, but It seems alltrle bit "raw." m Eating at bedtime was formerly con feldered very injurious; but at the present time it is favored by some of our best physicians, especially for In valids who are troubled with sleep lessness. 'Food of a simple kind will Induce sleep. The sinking sensation felt by those who can not sleep is often simply a call for food, while wakeful ness is often u sympton of hunger. Gratify this desire and you will soon fall asleep. The- feeble will be stronger at dawn if they partake of light food before going to bed. Some twelve or fourteen hours lie between supper and breakfast, and by that time the fuel of the body has become ex pended. When prolonged wakefulness attacks us, and our thoughts go hither and yon, and we have no more control over tlirm than the wind, the wisest 'thing to do Is to eat a cracker or two, or a cold biscuit, or some bread and 7iiilk; give the stomach something to do, and this will draw the surplus Wood from the brain and you -will fall asleep. ; Tho Ohio Penitentiary News, a pap er edited and published by Inmates of the Ohio Penlten'tiary, contains the following humorous remarks which wo give Just as thoy print it, quota tion marks and all: "Criminals can be reformed, by sim ply trusting them. Trust is confidence. IJy trusting men you bring out the good that Is In them." So thinketh a Pennsylvania man, but the :iio men and paper men would quit their Jobs in a hurry if they did business here on trust. Trust Is all right in the right place. It comes high up in New York City, but they must have it, it seems. Wo believe our Irish friend Dooley knew his business when ho said; "Thrust ivrybody, but cut tho ca-ards." There 'are many who . deem them selves unfortunate who can attribute their trials to foolish indiscretions. They are Imprudent In their acts and wnen the result of their folly is visit ed upon them they send up a dismal protet and lay it at the door of mis fortune. The so-called unfortunate condition Is scarce even inevitable. If one be alive to his own best inter ests at all times he will soon learn that misfortune holds aloof. The person who courts danger and gets bitten is not usually considered a victim of cir cumstances; he Is simply Tjlind to his own Interests and when he gets so far along that he is 'buffe'ted about by the whirlwind of his own misdeeds the world merely take3 a pitying glance and terms 'him a fool. The woman stepped inside the sta tion house door and stood looking around tho room. It was a pleasant morning, tho windows were open, ad mitting a refreshing breeze, and the trees in front cast a cooling shade ever the front of the building. The place seemed more like the comfortable office of a wayside inn than a city police sta tion. The official behind the ' desk took off his cap and bowed, for the lady was not such as 'he was wont to receive there. She came over within conventional conversational dlstanco and bowed slightly to the official. "This is the police' station house, isn't It?" she inquired. "Ye3, madam," replied the officer. "This Is where they bring prisoners when they arrest them, Isn't it?'' "Yes, madam." . , , "Do you keep them in there until you are through with them?" "Oh, no; we lock them up in the cell room." ' ' .' ' "Indeed! 'Jlay I see that?" "Cef tairily, 'madame,'' and ,the' polite official, bowing, escorted'' his "strange visitor through the heavy door Into t: c rell room. I. vas empty and still and clean, and the flesh air of th emorning had got in and made it almost attractive in i's cool cleanness. She looked around izr a minute more. 'To you shut tho prisoners in those Iron cages?" She asked. "Yss, madam." ' What do you feed them?" ' "We don't feed them. We don't keep '.home hero long enough for that." i ''Where do they sleep?' : "On the benches you see in the colli.?" I "I-Iow do you punish them?" "Wo don't punish them at all. That is not our part of the business." " Fo looked surprised. "Don't you put irons on them, or Eas them, or douse them in ice water, or put them in straight Jackets, or tie them up by the thumbs, or whip thorn with cat-and-nine-tails, cr shut them In a dark room, or something like that?" "Certainly not, madam," and it was tho official's turn to be surprised. "That is all," she said, and started for the other room again. Once there sho stood by the desk again. "I have a husband," she said, medi tatively rather than didactically, "who comes home about five nights a week drunk and disorderly, and I was thinking of having him arrested, as I have stood It about as long as I can." "Ydu ought to do It, madam, if he is ugly," suggested the official. "He is ugly," sho said, with empha sis. "No," she said, as she started to leavo; "no, I guess I won't. I am much obliged to you for your polite ness, but this is altogether too good for him." A Midwinter Gar den, Aro the Republicans of Macksburg Actions of Telephone Agent. at j. iV republicans coming from Macks burg on yesterday morning's train complain bitterly of the treatment re ceived frdm tho long distance tele phono asent at that place on election night. It was advertised there as elsewhere that election re'turns would bs given free of charge by the tele phone company. On election! night v hen the Republicans gathered about tao ofTIce to hear tho returns, they found that tho agent, Mr. O. S. Gil christ, had taken In half a dozen Dem ocratic friends and was refusing to allcw any one else to enter the offlcs c- to get the returns from the tele phone. Admission was demanded by a head er correspondent and tho Republican Central Committeeman, both of whom wlthed to send election returns to this city. However, admission was de nied, and this In spite of the advertis ing tbat returns would be given free. The Republicans wore going to have tho returns by all means, however, and by raising a contribution, succeeded in raising the sum of $10, for which they received the uso of the Western Union Telegraph Company's wires.

Ask your druggist ' '' A number of water-color sketches by Harry Fenn are printed In tints in the November Century, in illustration of a paper by Maurice Thompson, en titled "My Midwinter Garden." The garden Is on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. A breezy headland curving parallel with the line of a fair horizon; some cat-boats and luggers leaning against the sky; a smell of acacia whisked along in broken puffs; a wandering sound of uncertain quality passing be tween tho white-capped sea and the dusky pine-woods afar; roses tossed about on emerald sprays; great sea birds winging aloft and I In the midst of this my Mid-winter Garden, loafing under a yapon-tree. Two days ago, at the hour of noon, a snow-s'torm, an Eskimo wind, the earth frozen to granite solidity, and icicles clinking on the boughs of my Indiana apple-orchard, when our southward flight was begun. We left the blue Jays, muffled and ill-tempered, Jeering In the bare hedge of bols d'arc at Sherwood Place, where but lately the grackles and robins made a great din on the ove of migration. Two aays ago, bear In mind, wrapped to the eyes in fur of otter ana seal, gasping against the ringing, frost-spiked strokes of a norther, we gave chase to tho migrating thrushes; and now I loll drowsily by the gulf-side, making noto of some gray pelicans striking mullet In the tepid surf-waves five rods from the beach. Beside a wall of shell concrete, crumbling and vine matted, great rusty yellow oranges s'till hang on a tree. In the yapon overhead are 'masses of scarlet berries, temptingly fresh and luscious in ap pearance, but as bitter as disappoint ment may be. The season Is winter; a weather re port In 'the morning paper tells of five degrees below zero at some point In Wisconsin, and of a blizzard spinning down from Canada across country to tho Wabash and the Kankakee; and yet my nostrils realize what the violets spill and tho roses lose In tho open air sweets rarer 'than summer's best. "Mosquito mnlnrla" Is now monop olizing the attention of Urltish med ical men. Investigations completed in London, in which healthy persons allowed themselves to be bitten by insects shipped from Rome, and wcro promptly stricken with malaria In its most violent form, hate demonstrat ed that a mnluriul parasite is trans mitted by a particular species of mos quito. Dr. Patrick Mnnson, the medical adviser of the colonial office, who was the projector of the theory, pointed out in an interview that America has p.n immediate and vital interest in the mosquito problem. lie asserts tlmt in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Phll- ' Ippines, as well as in ninny of the southern states, there exist tropical conditions peculiarly conducive to the ( inception and growth of malarial dis eases. He adds thnt unless the Amer ican government employs heroic measures the danger will become as Infectious as in its native regions in Africa. "In fact," he said, "America hns now to grapple with an evil which has baffled the authorities in Eng land's tropical possessions. The evil cannot be eradicated by radical meas ures. There must be a positive cam ri'"n against mnlnria-brceding condl t'ens, and fame nnd fortune awaits tht man who will devise either ma chinery or a system of disinfection which will spell death for the mos-rju'toe'?." Dr. Mnnson suggests that America's j educational system, "which is in some respects in advance of British idfcas," ! ought properly to include a course In elcmcntnry hygiene. He says stu dents should be taught the rudimen tary principle thnt parasites flourish wherever stagnant water is permit ted to accumulate, and thus children would grow up with the knowledge firmly rooted in their minds that dan gerous consequences nre sure to fol low the neglect of such simple condi tions of health.

After a courtship of 60 years, which holds the wooing record of Tennessee, Elijah Hatcher, 82 years old, and Miss Mary McCamey, two years his junior, were quietly married near Maryland the other day. The bride and groom declined any elaborate preparations, although their friends and relatives desired to make the occasion a festive one. Why the courtship, which was commenced before the Mexlcon war, waa of such duration both Mr. nnd Mrs. Hatcher declined to state. They Elmply remarked that they were growing old nnd thought they had better marry before they died. I'rlnca on a Locomotive, On a recent journey from Salsburg to Munich the prince of Bulgaria took liii stand on the footplate of the en gine and drove the train himself. He irnde the engine driver a present of 60 francs and the fireman one of 30 francs. In a letter from the administration of the Bavarian railways to the Bulgarian court It was pointed out that the ncJ ceutance of these gifts was against the rules of tho service and that, further, the engine driver had no right to per mit a stranger on the engine. The con ductor of the train, it was added, was nUo to blame for not having drawn the attention of the prince to this reg ulation.
