' f 300D FOOD, GOOD CITIZENS i rfce Novel Dietetic Theory art Bishop k Samuel FUwa. ' Strikingly novel Is the new dietetic theory announced by Bishop Samuel Fallows of - the Reformed Episcopal church. According to the good bishop, vice or virtue depends largely upon the feeding of children. Feed your child on pies, . pickles, cakes, doughnuts, cream puffs and cheap candies and he ,,will grow up to crack safes, hold up nocturnal pedestrians or disgrace himself by strong drink. Feed htm on fat ; meat, brown bread, apples and good jbutter and he will become , a shining ! light in the community and get his monument in the public park. "I am j certain,"- says the bishop, "that the j food given to the child determines more than anything els the future man. Virtue can be fed Into a growing child and by the eatne reasoning. vice can be I fed into children by their stomachs." Bishop Fallows is one of the best i loved divines In Chicago. He has been BISHOP SJLMUBXi FALLOWS. fcctive In many fields not Immediately connected with the church. A native of England, he came to the United States In his boyhood. He was a Methodist preacher when the civil war began and went to the front as a. chaplain. Upon his return from the field he recruited, in Wisconsin a remarkable regiment, made up entirely of college graduates like himself. This was known as the "God and Morality regiment, Rev. Mr. Fallows being Its colonel. After that he served as a fighter and earned the brevet of brigadier general. After the war he went back to the ministry. He has been a bishop for thirty years. Some years ago he made a study of the saloon question, discovering that the saloon is the poor man's club. He engaged a chemist to produce a nonalcoholic beer, foam and all, and started a "home saloon," but it was not a profitable venture GERMAN GLEANINGS. Germany holds the record, for short sighted people. The percentage at twenty years of age is O1. - A human spinal column of the stone age recently found near Heidelberg was examined by Professor Hoffa, who discovered peculiarities In it which convinced hlru that the person to whom It belonged was a victim of tuberculosis. 1 In all the larger cities of Germany the locals of tho national union have unit! Into so called "trade union cartels" rsauizntlouR, which, like the trades aud labor councils of the United States, hnvo the purpose of regulating uniformly matters common to all trade unions and of giving the trade unions of a. place a uniform representation. A JOMr Soottl.Ii ct.-, In Scotland the custom still prevails of taking down the window blinds when there Is a corpse In a house and hanging white sheets across the windows. The custom also prevails in some parts of England, particularly in the northern part, and In many families a special "death sheet- is reserved for the chamber in which the corps may lie and is ofteu used for many aerations.

VETERANS DEFEAT EARLHAM VARSITY The Alumni Basket Ball Team Scores 40 to the Youngsters' 31. AN INTERESTING CONTEST LACK OF EXPERIENCE CAUSE OF THE 'DOWNFALL' OF THE REGULARS, WHO PLAYED WELL DESPITE DEFEAT. In the opening game of basket ball at Earlham college last night the strong alumni team defeated this year's varsity by a score of 40 to 31. The game was an interesting contest though very rough. The alumni team whieh was composed of the best players who have ever repre sented the Quaker school in the winter sport had the advantage of a little practice and were able to outclass their less experienced opponents. The new players . however showed well and it is thought with hard work, Earlham 'will' gain a creditable 6howing in basket ball this year. An admission of fifteen cents was charged to the game last night and over $13 was cleared showing an encouraging Interest among the students. Prof. Heironimus refereed in a very satisfactory manner. ' The alumni lineup was Russel and Walter Wilson, forwards, Allen, center, Bond and Brunson, guards. The varsity team was composed of Chambers, Mote and Hotchkiss, forwards, Genn, center, Birch and Newsom, guards. THIRTY FEET TALL. Honei Roamed In Wyomlngr In Old en Day. Jfow Fossilised. .. . Out in Wyoming a lot of scientific grubbers have unearthed the fossil remains of a horse thirty feet long and more than thirty feet hjgh. The grubbers seem to have pieced the horse together without any comment, and they don't offer a word of information concerning either his genealogy or his track record. A horse thirty feet long would appear to be a lot of horse. If he belonged to the cave man the latter certainly had his bands full. A horse so tall that a thirty foot ladder became necessary when his bridle was to be put on might well be called the pride of the stable, although no ordinary stable would begin to accommodate him. If the cave man hadn't any ladder and couldn't borrow one the next best thing was to ctymb a tree. Then try to Imagine him shinning up a tali palm with the heavy bridle on his back, only to find when he attained the right altitude that tho horse had moved beyond reach and was "peacefully browsing on the tall grass of the Jangle"! Of course a thirty foot hore could be expected tp cove? much more ground than the ordinary animal of the same breed, even at a walk. And it he took it into his head to work his way across lots there would appear to be nothing to impede him. Fences would go down before him like stubble, and a merely playful cavort would carry him over raging torrents. When a thirty foot horse, shied at a bit of white paper in the roadway the chances are that' be Jumped clear over Into the next county. As a war horse the thirty footer must have been a startler. When he let out a neigh fee enemy fled in blind and unreasoning terror. When he champed his bit and pawed the ground the very hills shuddered. When he switched his tall the hireling foe fell about him like ripened grain. And then think of the nightmare that could be expected to follow the first sight of this prodigious equine! He ! certainly was a wonder. It is a great pity we know so little about him. Cheyenne News. Vhat She Expected. 'What becameV of that pessimistic girl you used to gy with?" "I married her.
