Our Friend, Dr. Wiley "Will the doped-food interests get Wiley's scalp this time?" This is the question of the hour. Never did a little benzoate of soda set up such a chemical reaction. Resolutions are being introduced in congress calling for information, and the combat has raised a dizzy daze of dust in administration circles. People are not talking about reciprocity, but about Dr. Wiley. There is not the slightest misunderstanding about the case. The enemies of the pure food laws do r.ot give a rap for Dr. Rusby, whose technically irregular connection w;th the payroll furnished the 'committee on personnel" with an excuse for asking that Dr. Wiley "be given an opportunity to resign." The Rusby case is nothing. It does not make a pretense of being anything moore than a flimsy excuse, deliberately worked up by the food dopers, to get Wiley out of the way. It is a flank attack in the old war against the chief of the bureau of chemistry. Many attempts to secure the dismissal of Dr. Wiley have been made during the past few years. Tehy have not only failed, but the doctor has emerged strengthened in popularity after each contest. The people have the utmost faith in him, and even those "practical" politicians who are always ready to serve certain Interests have been afraid to "break" Wiley on a plain issue. For a long time they have been looking for a reasonable excuse to attack him by subterfuge, and they seized upon the Rusby case with frantic eagerness. Dr. Wiley has made many enemies and antagonized many interests in the course of his administration, but the users of benzoate of soda being perhaps the most vitally concerned, are naturally his most active enemies. The reason of their concern is easily understood. They can gather big profits from the use of the waste of canning factories in the manufacture of foods and sauces, but this waste is not usable unless it is preserved by some artificial means, benzoate of soda being preferred. It is not merely a question as to the harmfulness of benzoate itself. It is a question of being able to use nauseous and unfit material. The secretary of the American Health League in Ohio, in a bulletin Issued October 25, 1909, describes a visit he made to a tomato canning factory, where he studied the methods of handling the waste and refuse, "consisting of skins, cores, and rotten pulp." The tomatoes are handled during the short harvest season in cheaply constructed and shell like buildings, usually in remote localities, "where proper sewage and other sanitary facilities are unavailable." "In spite of all these adverse conditions," he says, however, "the canned tomato product, quickly handled into its final containers, and thoroughly sterilized as it is, is undoubtedly for the most part a whole- . some article of food supply, and is rarely in these days at least, subject to any artificial preservative tmtment." "But the waste! This," he continues, "is a most repulsive, nauseating mass of fermented, rotten garbage, consisting of peelings, cuttings, and decayed and partly ripe tomatoes, loosely and carelessly handled. It is scooped up with shovels and buckets from the floors, and afterward is treated with a quantity of benzoate of soda, thereby protecting it frbm ultimate putridity. In other words it is embalmed." "In this condition," the bulletin goes on to say, "it is finally sold to food manufacturers who make it up into ketchups, soups, etc., which are palmed off on the public as being made from fresh, ripe, sound tomatoes, 'prepared with 1-10 of 1 per cent benzoate of soda.' Dr. A. W. Bitting, of the United States department of agriculture, in a report of his investigations of ketchup making, states thtt the great bulk of tomato ketchup in the market is made of this material." These manufacturers are the fellows that Dr. Wiley has been after. ' In his work he has run down hundreds of violators of the law, who have been fined and their products confiscated and destroyed. In a bulletin issued June 1C, 1911, by the department of agriculture signed by Secretary Wilson, there is an account of seizure of "three consignments of tomato paste, totaling 202 barrels, shipped from a canning factory in New Jersey." The complaint charged that this tomato paste was adulterated, and "consisted of filthy, decomposed and putrid vegetable substances." When the case came to a hearing the claimant of the products failed to appear, and the court ordered the tomato paste destroyed. This is only one instance in hundreds of Dr. Wiley's efficient work in behalf of the people. No wonder the doped food makers say that their industry is being "ruined," and their bitter fight on Wiley is not hard to understand. But few people believe that they will succeed in having Dr. Wiley ousted on a technicality. He has protected the food of the people for twenty-five years against the fraudulent manufacturing interests. He has a thousand friends where he has one enemy, and it is not thought possible that President Taft, even at Wickersham's behest, will make so grave a political mistake as would be the ousting of Wiley on behalf of the benzoatcrs.
Sctentifio Management. The general manager of a great industry in passing through one of his shops was suddenly struck with the idea that a way might be found to utilize the dally tons of waste from timber and steel, says tbe Woman's World. Shortly afterward he employed a young chemist to enter the plant and devote bis time to experiments with these chips and scraps and shavings. Although at work less than one year salvage totaling more than $500,000 has resulted from the scientist's investigations. A few years ago the business men held the student in contempt and ridiculed his "theories." Today they are largely depending upon him to wy thi 'x't.i.-ij The man accused of inciting mutiny on the airship was heavily Ironed and brought before the captain.

Taxing Death. They have queer ways of doing things In Mexico, aa most observers are aware by this time, but the fact that they virtually impose a tax on death is perhaps not generally known. To illustrate, a young American was drowned in the Rio Grande, and his body drifted down the river, lodging finally on the Mexican side. When the relatives came to claim the body they were received with the utmost cour tesy, but were somewhat amazed when informed that the remains could not be sent out of the country except upon the payment of a tax of $120. that being the law in such case made and provided. The moral, if there be any. asserts the New York Mail, is this: Don't die in Mt-i.-o A Bold Court Fool. Ferdinand II. was a man of very uncertain moods and would allow his Jester to take liberties with him one hour while resenting any familiarity the next. One day he turned round on Jonas, his favorite fool, and thundered: "Fellow, be silent, I never stoop to talk to a fool." "Never mind that," answered Jonas. "I do. So please listen to me in your turn."

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright, 1908, by Edwin A. Nye
THE'COUNTR'r GIRL IN TOWN. She is going alone to the city. In the country nothing happens. Life there is a monotone. And the girl does not. know that the greatest boon is to be content and that the quiet places are the best. She is discontented. Does she not see the same faces every Sunday at the church and at the picnics? She knows one as "Bill," another as "Sarah," and the familiarity has become trite. And over all the countryside is the never changing look of things. Yonder is the city! Everything there is different plenty of newfaces and sensations. The scenes change like a kaleidoscope. The city air is tonic. Surely life is fuller there. She is young and innocent. She dreams fanciful dreams. She is impatient of restraint. She is lured by the glamour of the town. She does not know how safe is the sheltered life of the quiet neighborhood and how dan gerous the city. She does not know the human limits of her virtues under strong temptation. She does not know that her gentleness of nature preventsher using upon the deceitful tempter the force of scorn which the sophisticated can summon to their aid. She does not know her own weakness. Poor lassie 1 Her loving disposition scarcely knows how to deny. Her sweet unselfishness scarcely is able to refuse. Every best quality of her girlish self may lead to her undoing. There the defenseless chicken strays. Over that place hovers the cruel hawk and swoops upon its prey. Innocent girl! If she should chance to fall into the wrong set of associates and there should be no one near and intimate enough to warn and guide why, God help the child! If, however, the girl is strong of character, well instructed by a careful mother, capable of restraint, self reliant, she will take good care of herself, render a good account and rise above the dangerous undercurrents of temptation. But if uotIf not she will be swallowed up by the insatiable maw of the city to be defiled and spewed out, bereft of all that makes her a sweet and innocent girl. FANNY CROSBY. I am just as young as I ever was. 1 haven't grown old a bit, and I don't Intend to grrow old. Those who trust the Lord shall preserve their strength, and I rust the Lord. The brave words were uttered by a woman who is ninety-two years old, or, better, ninety-two years youngFanny Crosby, the well known writer of Christian hymns. Speaking to a vast audience in New York the ether day, she turned upon the people eyes that have been sightless from the time she was five years old. Since she was a child this blind singer has composed hymns. If you were to strike from the church hymnology the productions of Fanny Crosby you would leave the collections poor indeed. And you could fill many ordinary hymnals from her songs alone. "I don't intend to grow old." Whal splendid optimism! And she never will grow old in spirit. Because of the sublime optimism of her life she has lived long and usefully; because of it her songs breathe of faith and of hope and of trust. And as the great audience was thrilled by the words of the young-old woman of ninety-two, so has the Chris tian world been stirred to enthusiasm by the sacred songs of this sweet singer of Israel. Optimism is vitality. Pessimism is poison. Call It what you will Christian faith, new thought, Christian Science, suggestive therapeutics, or what not optimism is life. Some of us who have boxed the compass of religious thinking and come back to the simple religion of mother's knee call It Christian faith. Why Fanny Crosby has not grown old is because of her simple and beautiful trust, because she has had young thoughts, sought young company, kepi a young spirit. Age is not of the spirit. The body may grow old, but by faith the spirit is renewed from day to day, and, such is the force of spirit over material, the body itself is wonderfully preserved. And so the blind singer is npt tired of life. On the contrary, she says she intends to live to celebrate the on hundredth anniversary of her birth May she accomplish her desire! Who puts faith and hope and trust into the hearts of mortals puts inte the world the tremendous forces of a surance and coafidence and cour4i and health Baseball. Baseball was founded on the old English game of "rounders," but bears hardly any resemblance to it in its present form.

Narcomania Tobaccum Written for the Palladium and SunTelegram The influence of tobacco upon the muscular system is that of a destroyer of muscular tonicity; the whole great voluntary muscular system, over four hundred muscles in all, besides an inestimable muscular network in the involuntary system, is constantly in a sort of pulling and drawing state of activity; even in soundest sleep the voluntary muscular system is not in a state of absolute relaxation. Only a severe blow on the head will produce a complete muscular relaxation, when the victim falls In a limp mass, remaining unconscious for a longer or shorter time, until nervous reaction sets in, when, if not fatal, the muscular tonus is restored and the injured becomes conscious and can sit or stand erect. Now because of its special inimical influence on this muscular tonicity, what is commonly called tobacco-heart is well known in medical practice, and much oftener met with in the physician's daily work than many doctors, who themselves use tobacco, are willing to admit. When we remember that the heart is a dense-walled hollow muscular organ, contracting on an average of 72 times per minute, and ejecting from its lower cavities about four ounces of blood each pulsation, sending it out with a force of about 43 pounds to the square inch, surface pressure, a force adequate to send the whole quantity of blood in the body the entire round of circulation, in a normal or healthy state,4 every 44 seconds. One may easily learn the vast work of the heart by considering a few physiological facts and figures: The total quantity of blood in a healthy body is estimated to be one thirteenth of the bodyweight, for instance a person weighing 156 pounds would have 12 pounds of blood, about 1 gallon 2 quarts of circulating blood, never still a second while life lasts in the healthy body; and about 4 ounces is thrown out of the cavities of the heart at each contraction on an average of 72 times ev ery minute; in order to do this great work of sending 1 gal, 2 quarts of blood the entire round of the circulation, that is from the heart to every minute tissue of the body and back again to the heart every 43 seconds, it is estimated that this great muscular organ must exert an energy at each contraction sufficient to raise 288 gms. (about 9 lbs.) a meter (over 3 fet.) high. Now- take a pencil and figure; the amount, of work, muscular, energy, exerted by the heart in 24 hours, it is more than necessary to raise 94 pounds 311,040 feet high. Now tobacco, having as it does a peculiar influence on muscular tissue, degenating its tissue-elements, thus lowering its integrity and capability for energy and endurance, causes the well known tobacco-heart. For this same reason, also for its pernicious effects on the muscular system generally, athletes, especially professionals, cannot use tobacco to any extent, if at all, and must, if one would excel, abstain totally from the use of tobacco, alcoholics, and all other narcotic poisons; in other words, it is a physiological as well as physical impossibility for a narcomaniac to become any sort of an athlete. Any physician tolerably expert in diagnosis, and such a one must necessarily carefully investigate the personal habits, family history and heredity of the patient, well knows the alarming increase of narcomania, and the sad outlook of tobacco narcomania on coming posterity. In the next article will be discussed the influence of tobacco on society today and its hereditary entailment. J. M. T. CHICHESTER S PILLS THE lHAJtOXD BBA.M. JL !

WHAT OTHERS SAY
URBANIZING THE COUNTY, 4 From the Baltimore Sun. Delegates who had made a careful study of conditions asserted, at the recent meeting of the National Convention of Charities and Corrections, that the wild rush of girls and boys from the farms to the cities was caused largely by the desire for amusement. They found life ou the farm dull and uninteresting, they were distressed by its loneliness, and flocked to the cities like moths to the light. Mrs. Belle Israels suggested that the country sehoolhouses be made the centers around which the life of the rural community would revolve. This has been done in some sections and with marked success. Improvements in school buildings and in instruction has been followed by a much greater interest of parents and children in the schools. As the old log or ramshackle board cabins have given place to mod ern buildings well equipped, new life has been put into communities that were declining, and there has been less disposition of the younger people to leave the farm. With good schools, good roads, telephones, telegraph, daily mails bringing the newspapers, magazines and letters, with the agricultural clubs and the automobile, the dwellers in the country districts no longer suffer from the isolation that was so trying to women and ambitious girls and boys. TRUCK FARMING FOR JUVENILES. From the Chicago Record-Herald. Vacation schools have been greatly praised for their work of taking city children out into the ields and giving them a taste of couutry life and an interest in country matters. But in New York city a closer connection has been brought about by the National Highways Protective Association, which has gone into juvenile farming on a large scale on the upper East Side. It has secured waste land sufficient for five or six hundred small plats, has leveled and fertilized it, and has put its colony of youthful truck farmers at work. The plan amuses the children, instructs them, interests them by making them the owners of the crops produced, and finally keeps them off the streets. WILL SOCIALISM GROW. From the Council Bluffs Nonpareil. Victor Berger, the first and so far the only socialist member of Congress made him maiden speech this week, and announced that he would support Canadian reciprocity, not as a finality, but as a step. Incidentally, Berger made a good impression. His party is likely to grow more numerous in future, and it would not be surprising if in the next decade most of the cities in the country will have socialist representatives In Congress. In Germany the socialists are the largest of the political groups in the reichstag. LAWS ANGAINST CONCEALED WEAPONS. From the Chicago Record-Herald.
