BAI1S FOOD FADS ASJiOIISEIISICAL Prof. Taylor of Pennsylvania . University, Also Upholds . Cold Storage.

"Philadelphia, Feb. 4. In an addretis delivered before an Interested audience In Logan hall. Dr. Alonzo K. Taylor, professor of physiological chemUtry In tho University of Tennylvanla, showed that many of the ofteneBt exire8-d and tnost heartily Indorsed views on the question of .food valuea were the result of person- ! prejudice or downright Ignorance. .'"The greater part of Fletcherlsm .l downright nonsense," he said. "It implies for Instance, that chewing helps to digest food. That is not true. Mastication merely prepares food for digestion. Anything beyond a reasonable amount of chewing Is a mere waste of time and energy. The best point of Fletcherism is that It checks the tendency to gulp down food, but on the wholo unless prevented by Imperfect teeth or lack of time the majority of men masticate quite enough." Another fallacy, Professor Taylor aid is that an unrestricted use of sugar Is bad. "I'm still waiting." he aid, "for some dentist to explain to me why the use of Btigar affects the teeth In any way. No one has been able to tell me yet. The accusation that It causes decay of teeth seems to ino perfectly unJuBtlfled. As for its effett on the digestion, popular Ideas there are wrong too. "Sugar Is one of tho most easily digested foods In the world, and the only reason It is at all harmful is because It is so easily digested that there is danger of overloading. Sugar should not be looked upon as a mere seasoning, like pepper or salt. It Is a food for the body, and a cheap food at that, and deserves a chief place on our bills of fare. We might take pattern from the Russian government, which furnishes, a'ftcr many of the experiments had been tried and have failed, pure sugar to its soldiers on forced marches." Red and White Meats. The idea that we eat too much meat ! a result of economic conditions, Professor Taylor said. Its use is largely condemned by popular consent because It happens to be one of the most expensive staples. The prejudice against "red" meats, he said, is the outcome of a misconception of a -group of English doctors, who promulgated a theory that has never been proved, that thee are perceptible differences between the corpuscles of red and white meats. Concerning the fold -storage .of meats Professor Taylor said there was a good 'word to be said of the system. Meats, he explained, stored away undergo a self digestive process that makes them more tender and Improves thero texture. From two to eight weeks of storage, he said could not In any way harm the meats, and would undoubtedly improve them for rating. He heartily condemned, however, the keeping of undressed fowl for any length of time. At Local Theaters "The Honeymoon Trail. The return of "The Honeymoon Trail" to the Gennett on February 17, after an absence of two years will be hailed with delight by the lovers of musical comedy. The Honeymoon Trail was one of the biggest successes of the Benson when it was first presented here and the many people who to see It then and those who did see It will be anxious to hear It tuneful melodies once more. "The Man on th Box." A good company of players will be aeen at the Gennett on February 10, In a splendid revival of Harold Mo Orath's classic story, "The Man on the Hox"' dramatized by Grace Livingston Furnas. This play had a run of over 200 nights in New York and was an Instantaneous success and decided hit. It has In no degree lost any of Its beautiful and. pleasing powers to catch and hold in its entrancing and fascinating spell the hearts of its bearers and delight them with its strong heart Interest; Its' delicious, high class comedy, as pure and rich us the crisp and sparkling wit, freeh from the pen of a master hand, who has In one grand stroke, reached every pastdon of the.human soul. The piece will be correciMy staged and costumed in every detail. The book baa been widely read, and as the play closely follows the book. It will be an evening of rare entertainment for nil. Jamas K. Hackett. After one has delved Into the dramatic occurrences of the four seasons past with special references to the achievement of James K. Hackett It la easy to understand why the knowing speak of Mr. Hackett as "our most representative actor." It was only last seaon he was playing the title role In Kernatein's theatric play of modem business. Samson," wherein he was forced to be masculine to the "nth" degree. In "John Glayde's Honour" and in "The Walls of Jericho." It was the openhearted, wholesome man of the world be characterized. k that when his current performance as the king In "The King's Game" Is watched and guaged with .til the exactitude that can be expected from a wonderful player, all hesitancy regarding the sobriquet hs friends have bestowed upon-him vanishes in the admiration the spectator has for the versatile and highly gifted artist. As In "The Pride of Jericho." Mr. Hacked appears as a royal personage but there is n satiric touch to the comedy and the play la therefore ailed with a modern esprit which makes it

AT entertaining and delightful without leaving a tang in the mouth. Seats for the engagement of Mr. Hackett at the Gennett next Thursday will be ready at the box office on Tuesday morning. "The Genius." Paying a sum of money to three unfortunate artists that ho may become famotis and win the girl that he thinks he loves, then later falling in love with the charming model of a studio, and having to persuade the first one that she will interfere with art'B progress if she don't cease her, attentions toward him, is a part of the story of "The Genius" which Mort II. Singer will present at the Gennett Wednesday night with Henry Woodruff as the star. Mr. Woodruff enacts the role of "Jack Spencer" and judging from the comment of the newspaper critics he has never appeared to greater advantage than at the present time. As a play it is the brightest and happiest natured offering seen at the Gennett in some time. It is not seriously or heavily drawn, the lines are bright, the situations find a laugh giving way to happy and steady Interest, the simplest, truest little touches of heart interest here and there make the blend as symmetrical as It is satisfactory. This is interspersed with pretty musical numbers skillfully blended in order that they may not detract from the action of the play. Manager Singer has used unusual judgment In the choice of his company which includes many artists of metropolitan reputation. The chorus which was selected from more than a hundred applicants. contains some of Chicago and New York's representative ' beauties. A pretty display of many creations in latest gown and millinery effects are shown. The production is carried complete. "Brewster's Millions." One becomes interested in reading a book and characters at times seem as living, breathing friends. It is therefore easy to understand how after having followed the adventures of a popular hero or heroine of fiction and having taken into the confidence of these persons that one should have a desire to meet them face to face. In renewing the acquaintance of old friends made over from cold type into flesh and blood, one feels a satisfaction not easily described. It is sometimes akin to a psychological UNHAPPINESS DISPELLED. Men and Women Unanimous About It. Many women weep and wall and refuse to be comforted because their once magnificent tresses have become thin and faded. Many men incline to profanity because the flies bite through the thin thatch on their cranlumrt. It will be good news to the miserable of both sexes, to learn that Newbro's Herpiclde has been placed upon the market. This Is the new scalp germicide and antiseptic that acts by destroying the germ or microbe that la the underlying cause of all hair destruction. Herpiclde Is a new preparation made after a new formula on an entirely new principle. Anyone who has tried it will testify as to its -worth. Try it yourself, and be convinced.

phenomenon. It is perhaps not too much to say that George Barr McCutcheon's story "Brewster's Millions" has had as many, if not more readers than any American work of fiction recently published. It is therefore natural that the combined armies of fiction readers and theater goers will look forward to the appearance of Carl Gerard in Frederic Thompson's production of this story at the Gennett Tuesday evening. Frederic Thompson's name is a sufficient warrant for the public confidence In the ings and an acting company of the first class. At the Murray. Another great local favorite is to be numbered among the acts which will appear on the bill at the New Murray this week. It is none other than "A Night With the Poets" perhaps the greatest hit and most appreciated and talked of production which ever appeared in this city. This grand and refined act was at the New Murray last season and both times set a high water mark in point of attendance. A feature which will undoubtedly recommend the act to the local patronage this time is the fact that Mr. Gus Sun himself is now the owner and director if it and it is he personally who will present it. Clinton Lloyd, who won so much favor last season by his readings is again cast as Robert Lorain and will give his readings again from Riley. Whittier and Kipling. "An Old Sweetheart of Mine," which was made famous as a gem of the stage by Mr. Lloyd, is still in his repertoire and the posings and effects used in carrying out the pretty sentiment in Riley's masterpiece have been enhanced to the degree that it is even more beautiful than last season. "Maud Muller" too, is retained.

TO AID CHURCH PiOT STEALS While Town Clerk Took $3,600 to Make Additions to Holy Edifice.

Montrose, Colo-, Feb. 4. The Rev. H. McD. Thompson, former city clerk, who has been found short $3,600 in his accounts has confessed to the city council that the figures are correct. Thompson says he spent various sums in making additions to the First Baptist church, of which he is pastor, and that other demands upon him had caused him to take money from the city funds as he collected then. While ho was drawing his salary of $100 per month as city clerk he was paying out to employes of the office for doing the clerk's work $140 per month. Mayor Allen placed the matter in the hands of the district attorney and an information was filed against Thompson charging him with embezzling $3,600. He was jailed in default of $5,000 bonds. Thompson declares he will plead guilty and throw himself upon the mercy of the court. lie came here ift pastor of the Baptist church three years ago. He is a man of good education. During his incumbency as pastor a new parsonage has been erected, also a Sunday school chapel in the suburbs. The church has also been much improved. Thompson has contributed liberally to this work from the city's funds. None on Hand. Doc Squires was a queer old "yarb" doctor of decidedly limited education who flourished in New England a good many years ago. One day some one said to him: "See here, doc, hove you any diploma?" "Waal, no; I ain't sot none on hand just now, but I'm goin' to dig some soon as the ground thaws out in the spring."
