IJven William Jennii.Rs Uryan, lon the republican hope that a row would be precipitated over something, has da.hed those hopes to the ground. Addre?slnff the convention, he proved his democracy and loyalty to the president, in spite of republican assurances that he was to rip things up by the roots generally. Uut Mr. Drvan understands the republican party, and the republican press, and maybe realizes that the things that they want is quite always the things that the republic, for tho welfare of the people, ousht not to have. Mr. IJryan may not agree with I'res't Wilson on everything, but he is not so egotistical or prejudiced as to permit that to drive him into doing anything th.t would aid the republicans whom he knows to be wrong in pretty much everything. He will take the Kump for Pies't Wilson and preser.o the full force of his great following to tho democratic cause. Furthermore, if there is an thing on earth that William Jennings Bryan despises, it is a hypocriteand that means the republican party this year. It is useless to go into details. He outlined them himself ... Iiis writings on the republican convention at Chicago. We have related the most glaring incidents previously in this column. His assurance after the split at Washington, no doubt considerably exaggerated from certain sources for political effect, that lie is not only not lighting the president, but he is ready to tight for him. will be just as disconcerting to the republicans as it is comforting to the democrats who have been frequently misled on the point by opposition untruthfulness. The candidates and the platform, however, are the Important features of the convention. There is no misunder: tanding of the positions taken by the democracy of II 10. The record of three years is back of them, and there is no mincing of questions calculated to present a double meaning. None of these things will please opposition. It is not expected that they will, but the intelligent public that reads and thinks, and whose patriotism stands superior to their partisanship, will at least decline to he humbugged. They will s,eek the truth and decide for themselves, which done, democracy has nothing to fear from the intelligent, thinking and patriotic. The St. Iuis convention takes its place in the political history of the country for indexing among such events as stand for exhibitions of good sense, level headedness, honest convictions and a noble cause, as against such events as the Chicago convention that run largely to bluff, guff, goose-speccM and gall.

HOME RULE SOON. The Sinn Fein revolt seems likely to result, despite prophecies to the contrary, in immediate benefit to Ireland. The British government has decided that liberality is better than severity. Lloyd-George has been working on a peace plan with his usual force and "h-eness. sir Howard Carson and John Itedmond. respective leaders of the Ulster unionists and the Irish ti..onausts. woo were supposed to be irreconcileable, are said to have agreed on a workable plan. Ireland is to have its parliament, and have it not after the var, but immediately. The provisions for self-government, too, are said to be more liberal than those previously contemplated. Carson has Keen the handwriting on the wall. He realizes that home rule for Ireland is inevitable, because it is essential for the preservation of the empire, lie only demands that the Protestant counties of Ulster be excepted from the operation of the home rule system about to go into effect. And it is reported that he no longer regards this exception as mole than a temporary expedient to make an Irish parliament tolerable to the Flsterites by accustoming them gradually to the new regime. An election is to be avoided as dangerous in the present state of affairs. The first parliament is to bo made up of the present Irish representatives in the liritish parliament. Providence works in mysterious ways. Those infatuated Sinn Feincrs may, after all, soon be regarded as examples of rare foresight and patriotism Instead of deluded victims of (lermany and unintentional traitors to their country.

And with imperishable hope and confidence and pride Decants it down his tunnel and deposits it inside; W ho, after making faces for a brief and formal spelt. Writes out his testimonial and says that he is well. But while he uses medicine to stimulate his wealth; He won't experiment with drugs upon his private health. He Fays that if we all would be more careful and discreet And use a little judgment in selecting stuff to eat. We wouldn't have so many inconvenient aches and ills Nor holler half so loudly for his plasters and his pills. But food alone is not enough to keep a man alive. We've got to take some exercise if we expect to thrive. lit ch morning at six-thirty, w hile the silly sluggards yawn. He stands upon his front porch communing with the dawn.

Mom: iniLTii fop. li:ss moxi;y. ( Bismarck. X. D.. Tribune.) Meat is dear, and going up pretty steadily. We can no longer afford to eat meat as we used to. That is generally regarded as a misfortune. And yet. according to a scholarly work on diet, written by Prof. Chittenden of Vale university, it may be a blessing in disguise. In the professor's opinion, such deprivation, whether voluntary or enforced, brings better health and greater vigor and efficiency. Here is the theory, as worked out and substantiated by Prof. Chittenden in a series of elaborate experiments. Foods, as anybody knows who has looked into the diet question at all, are divided into three classes: First. Proteids, represented chiefly by meat. fish, milk and eggs; second, starches and sugars, represented chiefly by the grains and vegetables; third, fats. Proteid is needed for bodily growth and repair work. It is the stuff of which the cells and tissues are built. Starch and sugar furnish the fuel that heats the body and provides energy for work. Fat serves about the same purpose, but is more concentrated and less easily assimilated. Of the three classes of food, proteid is the most important. Without it the maintenance of life is impossible. But a little proteid goes a long way. Prof. Chittenden finds that most of us eat from two to four times as much of it as we need. The surplus is not merely wasted, but imposes on the body the needless burden of digesting it and then getting rid of it. That burden falls chieily on the kidneys, and is a big contributing cause of kidney diseases. Furthermore, the stuff-tig of the body with expensive proteid fills it full of "clinkers." making the victim "dopy," impairing his strength and lowering his general power of resisting disease. The thing to do, says Prof. Chittenden, is not to "cut out meat." but to eat less meat and other proteid foods, and make up for it if necessary by eating more or the fuel-producing cereals, vegetables, ttc. He Insists, however, that in nearly every case the total food consumption can profitably be reduced. In his own experience with several groups of men representing various occupations, lasting over several months, he found that almost without exception, as the quantity of food eaten was reduced to what would ordinarily be considered a "starvation diet," the men not merely kept their weight, but actually gained a little. And what was much more important, they doubled their physical strength or working capacity, and "felt better than they ever had felt before." The summer is a good time to try out this theory. If we can double our energy and save money at the same time, merely by giving a little attention to diet, why not do it?

SOLDI l'RV A I LAI I :X TS. (Desert New?, Salt Lake City.) It is with maladies many, strange and subtle that the modern army hurgeon is called upon to deal. Ailments there are. it seems, that are no less real and serious because they attack the spirit rather than the body. Time was when the army surgeon pnid no heed to these. Soldiers afflicted with them were classed, oftentimes, as malingerers. They were looked upon as "soft"; their courage was even questioned and they were compelled, in cases innumerable, to endure the slights and jeers of their comrades. In those days the sick soldier was sick only

The chief boiler of this melting pot is not English, although often some contributions are held for some time. The war in Europe seems to be still in progress or '.ack of progress. Taking a trench seems to be a hard job. The only way you can take It is to completely ruin it and then it's not there for you to take. Firrt thing you know the nations in Europe will be declaring a holiday every time they advance an inch on the western front. Of course there Is such a thing as a Russian Inch. No more conventions till 1920. And yet they sometimes say we have nothing to be thankful for. o Tili: LI II OF JAKi: IIKCKAMAX. CI mi ptor SO. Horace Fox, who has been decoratln the upper right hand corner of the last page of South Bend's choyce newspapers for quiet a spell, came to us with a story which we reprint in this here colyum unhesitatingly after gettin the sanction of our hero. Mister Jake F. T. A. Heckaman, the subjeck of this serious. Once there was an ole lady, accordin to Mister Fox's version, who had a daughter what was a beaut for a kid, but of coarse that haint got nuthin to do with the yarn. We dont remember the ole lady's name but the girl's title was Agnes. Well Ag's mother wanted some milk so she sent the girl acrost the street with a pitcher to get some. She gave the girl a. thin dime by which to make the purchase. A- came back after while an sez she dropt the pitcher and broke it and lost the dime. The mother gave her a bran new outfit, pitcher an dime an all. and sent her agin. By and by Aff comes back agin and sez she broke the pitcher an lost the dime. Her mother heing a kind an indulgent ole gink gives her another pitcher and a other dime. Well you wood not hardly belief but Ag comes back agin and makes the same kind of a report that she lost the dime and broke the pitcher. The mother give her another pitcher an a dime and

tole her woodnot sie be more keerful this time. Ag tez she wood that it wood be a pkuure an a lot of other bull like that. The old gray hair mother weighted and weighted and was almost reddy to give up in dispare agin when who should heave In sight but Ag who sez she dropt the pitcher and Iroke it and lost the dime. Ag's 'mother was a very patient woman but she begin to show the marks of augTavation by this time, accordin to Mister Fox's version. She sez to her daughter sez she "if you break another pitcher an lose another 10 cent piece when you come back i am goin to kill you." Well Mister Fox sez the girl come back after a little an sez she broke the pitcher and lost tho dime. "Sufferin cats," sez I to Mister Fox, "what did the ole lady do". Mister Fox sez why she killed her. There haint much cents to this story an we dont just sec what the sam Hell its got to do with Mister Jake F. T. A. Heckaman, but it teaches us that we should respect our parents, cause they haint cent to us on approval an we haint goin to get no chance to exchange them. Like a feller sez 1 time, he didnt belief a parent should strike his child unless of coarse In self defence. We bet Dario Resta couldnt even get a crowd on the river bank to watch him if he came to Springbrook park for another race. Bill Dunkle's goin to look for some of his stories in the east when he goes to Philadelphia to the ad gatherin. ADAM CROOK. When foe presses on every side It's not a time to think of pride. But rather in this time of need Tj show the :"oo some clashing speed. "Peace Dove it St. Louis meet." At last the noble aird has come home to roost. o Some folks blame WiNon for not slopping the war, others for not adding to its victims. Verily it's hard to satisfy all. o "What." asked the lady who pulls some startlers, "is Mr. W. A. McInerny doing at St. Ixmis, he is no carpenter?"

when he bore unmistakable physical evidences of his sickness. Nowadays, from Europe's battlefields, many a soldier is invalided home when, to all appearances, he is still physically fit though, it may be. a "bit run down." The usual methods of diagnosis fail to detect a disorder. But the army surgeon recognizes its existence and acts accordingly. In England, for instance, there ix a hospital where eases of "soldier's heart" are treattd exclusively. And "soldier's heart," explained in terms that the layman understands, seems to be nothing morP serious than a deep depression of the spirit. Sir James Mackenzie, eminent authority on cardiac irregularities, says that the ailment is not disease of the heart, as the term is commonly understood, but a sickness quite as distressing and almost as serious unless it is promptly and properly treated. So, w hen a soldier on 'the line begins to exhibit a tendency toward melancholy, he is sent back to the base for examination. The clinic thermometer may show no temperature and the delicate instruments of diagnosis may indicate no ailment, but the man. officer or private, is designated nevertheless as unfit for duty. In our Civil war. toward its end. army surgeons were beginning to take note of such subtle troubles and had begun 1o treat them. But. before such diseases were recognized, it is probable that their victims suffered far more in agony of mind than those whose sickness was more obvious and ordinary. Nostalgia, which must have assailed roldiers of the past no less than it assails soldiers' of today, is another ailment that the modem army surgeon recognizes. This, with the "soldier's heart" and possibly the two are not entirely dissimilar is treated rationally with the idea of curing the victim and returning him to the front to continue in the service of his country. Trench fighting, as it is conducted in this great conflict, cannot fall to rend and twist and shatter the nerves. The army surgeon of today well understands this fact, and, while he prescribes for diseases to which man commonly is prone, and patches up the soldier's body, he treats also, and wisels. those diseases that are of the spirit rather than the flesh. Indianapolis News.

TW'O OLD cntONIF-S POVERTY AND MILSE. (Tampa. Fla., Times.) Following an extensive investigation in many cities, the tuVuo health

department at Washington has made a report which shows that poverty and tuberculosis go hand-in-hand, the disease principally from life (existence is a etter word) in unclean surroundings. One-sixth of tuberculosis cas?s, declares the report, develop in cheap lodging houses and one-ifth are traceable to occupational haxards and bad working conditions. Therefore, the problem of eradicating the disease is shown to be one that demands economic solution the inauguration of better living conditions and more hours in the open. In connection with the report it is pleasing to note that the National Association, for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, now in session at Washington, is working along economic, lines. It recommends that churches and other organizations form classes of tubercular victims for instruction in outdoor treatment which they may give themselves at home, and reports that great good has already been done along that line. Poverty, as a rule, is the result of laziness, and laziness results in disease. Therefore, t he pro;. lem of taking care of the disease-ridden victims has at least two big phases the cure of laziness and of resulting disease as well and his'ory presents no higher one. But the two old cronies poverty ami disease must be routed in some wav.

THE VALUE OF CHEER. (Idaho Satesman, BoUe. Onod cheer is a great lubricant. It oils all of life's machinery. (Jood cheer is a great producer. It adds wonderfully to one's active ability and increases mental and physical power. It makes hosts of friends and helps us to be interesting and agreeable. Oood cheer will attract more customers, sell more goods, do more business, with less wear and tear, than almost any other quality. Optimism is the greatest businessgetter, biggest trader, truest achiever in the world. In the business office, in society, in ttolitics, in workshops, everywhere, the favorite is always the cheerful fello with the bright smile and bricht thoughts. Good-natured, cheerful ones do not waste their vital energies rapidly a.s the grumblers cr too sober, too sour ones do. They wor and live with less friction. Good cheer is a simple habit, i is the best in all the list.
