HEALTH AND FOOD.
A Doctor's Idea of a Perfectly Balanced
All Year Round Diet.
That every oue is more or less sus
ceptible to tubercular trouble is a mat
ter on which all old fashioned medical
authorities are agreed. They tell us
that we may pass through a phase and
out again without knowing it Accord
ing to Dr. T. Y. Hull in the Dietetic
Gazette, there is only one thing very
certain, and that is that if we keep in
good health or adapt ourselves to a
perfectly balanced diet the danger is
slight.
He advocates a reduction of vegeta
ble food, relying more upon butter,
meat and nuts. Here, of course, one
has to face the increased danger of
tubercular meat, itself probably a
large contributory cause of consump
tion. This Is Dr. Hull's idea of a perfectly
balanced diet, calculated to keep the
average Individual in perfect health all
the year round: The basis for the diet
Is found in meat, eggs, milk, butter,
bread, potatoes and fruit. It consists
daily of two quarts of milk, five eggs,
four ounces of beef, one and, one-half
ounces of butter, two ounces of nuts
(pecan), four ounces of bread, three
and one-half ounces of rice, three
ounces each of potatoes, peas and oat
meal, one ounce sugar, one ounce rai
sins, one apple and one orange.
FOLLIES OF SCIENCE.
8even Problems That Have So Far
Baffled Man's Mighty Brain.
The history of science has seven
problems that men In all ages more or
less have tried to : solve, but which
have finally been given up by all. To
day they are called follies.
The usual list comprises the follow
ing: First squaring the circle; second,
duplication of the cube; third, trisec
tion of an angle; fourth, perpetual mo
tion; fifth, transmutation of metals;
sixth, fixation of mercury; seventh,
elixir of life. Some lists put the phi
losopher's stone for the last three and
then add astrology and magic to make
the seven. "
To the unlearned It would seem pos
sible to draw a square which shall be
exactly equal in area to a given circle,
which is the first problem in the list,
but we are told by the highest author
ities that it is Impossible.
Since the discovery of radium It Is
claimed that the change of one metal
Into another 'has been accomplished,
but it is yet too early to dogmatize
about the matter. Chicago Journal. "
Learn to Think on Your Feet.
It does not . matter whether one
wants to be a public speaker or not, a
person should have such complete con
trol of himself, should be so self re
liant and self poised, that be can get
up in any audience, no matter how
large or formidable, and express his
thoughts clearly and distinctly. In
all ages oratory has been regarded as
the highest expression of human
achievement Young people, no mat
ter what they Intend to be, whether
blacksmith or farmer, merchant or
physician, should make it a study.
Nothing else will call out what is in
a man more quickly and more effec
tively than the constant effort to do
his best in speaking before an audi
ence. When one undertakes to think
on one's feet and speak extempora
neously before the public the power
and the skill of the entire man are
put to the severest test Success Mag

A clergyman who had neglected all
knowledge of nautical affairs was ask

audience of sailors. He was discours
ing on the stormy passages of life.
Thinking he could make his remarks
more pertinent to his hearers by meta
phorically using sea expressions, be
said:
"Now, friends, you know that when
you are at sea in a storm the thing
you do is anchor."
A half concealed snicker spread over
the room, and the clergyman knew
that he had made a mistake. :4
After the services one of his listen
ers came to him and said. "Mr. ,
have you ever been at sea?"
The minister replied:
"No, unless it was while I was de
livering that address."
Rivulets and the Rivers.
All are to be men of genius In their
degree rivulets or rivers, it does not
matter, so that the souls be clear and'
pure, not dead walls, encompassing
dead heaps of things known and num
bered, but running waters In the sweet
wilderness of things unnumbered and
unknown, conscious only of the living
banks, on which they partly refresh
and partly reflect the 'flowers, and so
pass on. Ruskln's "The Stones of Venice"

An Essay on Woman.
A woman is sometimes fugitive, ir
rational, indeterminable, illogical and
contradictory. A good deal of for
bearance ought to be shown her and a
good deal of prudence exercised with
regard to her, foe she may bring
about innumerable evils without know
ing It. Capable of all kinds of devo
tion and of all kinds of treason,
"monster incomprehensible," raised to
the second power, she is at once the
delight and the terror of man. AmieL
