IDEAL MENUS FOR AMERICAN FAMILIES

"Getting a Meal Is an Art" States Federal Expert, Dr. Wiley. CORRECT LIVING SECRET ! AMERICAN WOMEN, HE STATES, MUST BE TAUGHT THAT PREPARATION OF A MEAL IS AN ART, NOT DRUDGERY. Chicago, Feb. 2G.-Dr. IL W. Wiley, head of the chemistry bureau of the department of agriculture, while here, gave out what he considers the ideal menus for the American family in moderate circumstances. His menus follow: Breakfast Cereal (made from natural grains). Eggs or small chop. Toast. Coffee. Lunch Thick soup. Three kinds of vegetables. Small piece of meat, if desired. Dinner Soup. Three vegetables. Plenty of meat. Pastry, if it's homemade. Coffee and cheese. "The three meals I have outlined are, of course, subject to change," said Di. Wiley, "as different people require different food. My ideal menus, however, are suited to the great majority of American people. "American women must be made to understand that the preparation of a meal is an art, not a drudgery. When this is accomplished, we shall live both cheaper and better. American women are too willing to leave cooking to domestics. The preparation of a meal is. not only an art; it Is a fine art. as worthy, In its way, as pain'.ing and sculpture. A woman who knows how to cook well, and does cook well, does not demean herself In the least. She ennobles herself and benefits every one around her; for nothing is more important in the evolution of the race than dietetics." "Is there any known reason,'' he was asked, "why some persons 'should be fat and others thin?" "Oh, yes. There may of course, be a diseased condition bringing about an adipose state, but as a rule it is due to , the fact that people in sedentary occupations eat too much fat and starch and sweets too many potatoes and too much rice. Bread and Potatoes for Work. "Starches and sugars are converted directly into energy," continued the doctor. "When one is doing manual labor the energy thus generated is at once used up. If you want to get a good day's work out of a fellow fill him up on potatoes and bread. But a man of sedentary life a professor or student or an office man who eats these things can't use the energy up fast enough and it is stored in his body in the form of fat." "Do you think Americans eat too much 7" "Those who live an active outdoor life do not. It is possible the rest of ms may. A man who works with his head should eat lean meant and should not be too profuse in his diet." "What is your theory of the high cost of living";" "Well, we waste i great deal in the kitchen, for one thing. The French people would live well on what we throw away. Another thing, persons of meager means have too much false pride. They try to emulate the ilch. A man who invites a friend to dinner Is ashamed to take him to a modern restaurant. He would rather take him to some other place where the tsame meal costs five times as much." "Do you believe a man can live befittingly on a strictly vegetable diet?" "He can live, of course. But man1, is naturally, an omniverous animal. Take awry one-half of his natural food and you have only half a man. He loses power in proportion. The English probably eat more meat than any other nation the English and the Germans. And look at them. They are the greatest colonizers, the most aggressive people in the world. "Nearly all persons who profess to be vegetarians eat milk and eggs which are just as surely animal food as a piece of chicken or beefsteak." HELPING A SCULPTOR. The Favor Falguiere Did For Young Macmonnias. When Macmounies. the American sculptor, was a young man working Id Paris FalRulere. the famous French sculptor, on one occasiou entered his atelier and found there a beautiful Diana that had been for months "on the stocks" and was approaching a perfectlou measurably satisfactory to the sculptor himself. Falguiere became so absorbed In the work before him as to forget that it was not bis own. De began to twist and pull the dainty limbs of Diana this way and that, to punch ber in the ribs, turn her cueenly head for she was then only in clay, of course, and sua-k ceptible to impressions until "if, last he had produced the very pose he desired. "There, my friend; L, like. her better so." be cried, and skipped out of the studio. He bad really Intended to do Macmonnies a favor and had indeed paid him the greatest compliment of which he was capable, but the young sculptor was iu distress, for on comparing the remodeled Diana with a photograph of Falguiere's statue of the same character be found the Frenchman bad unconsciously made a practical replica of the other. Macmonnles did not rest until he had restored his statue to its original pose.

OLD ACADEMY ELM Woe Would Befall Man Who Laid Unkind Hands Upon the Tree. SENTIMENT PROTECTS IT SOLOMON F. CRULL, ONE OF PUPILS OF THE OLD SCHOOL, WATCHES HIS FOREST FRIEND WJTH GREAT CARE. Dublin, Ind., Feb. 20. -In these days of agitation for forest conservation Dublin finds itself taking sentimental interest in the cause. This little old town on the National road clings to its sentiments and traditions with almost religious zeal, and one of its strongest ties in that direction is an old elm tree that stands in the ground of the high school. The tree is an educational landmark in Dublin and woe must befall the person who lays unkind hand upon it. Sixty-one years ago when Sylvester Johnson of Indianapolis, was the master of old Dublin academy, the schoolmaster apparently had some ideas about forestry- In the academy ground he planted several little elms that he hoped to see grow to mighty trees and shade the ground. He had one foe to combat, however, with which he had not reckoned. The boys of the school, the survivors of which, like the master, are now old men, had no sentiments to spare on elm trees. When the master was not looking they took delight in playing leapfrog over his young trees. Only One Survived. The result, of course, was the wrecking of the trees. All but one perished, and it stands today a monument to its dead comrades, who were not able to withstand schoolboy enthusiasm. This lone tree has grown to such height that it is easily the king of all the trees in the high school ground. The old academy, like many of its old boys, has passed into memory land. One of the survivors of old academy days is Solomon F. Crull, for thirtyfour years a merchant here, and it is his pleasure to say that one of the missions of his old age is to guard "the academy elm." On summer days Mr. Crull may be seen strolling down Maple street to the high school grounds. He turns into the campus and soon finds a comfortable seat in the shade of the forest friend of his boyhood. On winter days, too, when the snow gives a white tone to the black elm bark he wanders down that way to see how it looks in winter dress. The tree has attained huge proportions in the sixtyone years of its life, and is one of the i show things of Dublin in the summer time. A Prize Bull. An Englishman traveling in Ireland stopped to inquire of an Irishman who lived iu a certain house they were just passing. The Irishman replied, "That is Mr. O'Hare's house, and if he had lived until today he would be a week dead."

M anting for votes $ a deise of old-time British election agents. As the law stood before the reform act of tsIi. widows of freemen on marrying again made their second husbands freemen and therefore voters. At election times widows were consequently paid handsomely to go through a formal marriage with a voteless bachelor, who for a consideration similarly agreed to support Smith or Jones, as the case might be. The pair ere married, the man oted according to instructions, and then he and his wife, standing on either side cf a tombstone said "'Death us do part." With this literal fulfillment of the matrimonial vow they regarded their marriage dissolved. At he last election in Bristol before IV!:!. a hundred women gave votes to men. Thiaf Proof. Some years ago a well known Tendon solicitor, recently deceased, successfully defended a man charged with I burglary, and a few days later there came by post a valuable gold hunter watch, with an Inscription to the effect that it was a gift from a certain Ixndou society, presumably of doubtful practices. Years afterward the solicitor had the watch stolen from his waistcoat pocket, but It came back to him by post with a letter of apology, st at lag that "we never rob one of our ta la."
