What Food It. In order to fulfill its olllce food must either build and repair tissue or It must give heat and energy to tbe body, and It should do these things nt as lit tle unnecessary expense of physical energy as possible. According to Its function all kinds of food are divided Into five classes. These are the tissue building foods, the fat foods, starches and sugars, mineral matter and water, Each one of these classes has Its par ticular duty to perform for tho body and therefore has Its especial place on the dally bill of fare. Any food mate rial, no matter how simple and well . known or how rare, contains two or I more of these Ove classes. A few of tbe standard materials contain all fire classes. For Instance, what do we find In a ! loaf of bread? A creat deal of starch " and some gluten from the flour, a llttlo miT-rc it tA,h i ti, fat from the flour and more If It has i been ndded In the making, some mlu tnmat wiped out a section or. .Marys- cra ,uatter and about 35 per cent of ville. the famous mining camp, failed ! water.

When It was seen that certain sa loons were doomed, the men with scores of others who escaped arrest broke through the ranks of fire fight ers, entered tbe drink shops and be gan to "load up." Jottlcs wero broken, barrels were broached, and the liquors flowed as I freely as In the old days whon tho first strikes were made. The Butte firemen, who wore mini-; monod to save tho llttlo town, np-j pealed In vain to the bibulous looters I to leave the saloons. Numbers of' constables were sworn In and a 1 roundup resulted In a batch of 30 , tlppllors in various stages of lntoxl- cation from a "bun" to a "slzz" be-; ing placed In the Jail, which they made a bedlam with their clamor. When the bars were lot down to- day tho 30 were found wrapped Inj from the food which we eut that we obtain those, elements which are nec essary for the support of life and tho functions of the body. The Duty of the Five Claites. Now that we have seen what an Im portant place In life our dally food oc cupies let us endeavor to learn to which class or classes certain com monly used foods belong. Tho tissue building foods, or the proteld foods, are not numerous, but so Important are they that life cannot be sustained for any length of time without them. This class of food has been glveu tho nanio proteld, a word meaning "first" or "pre-eminent," because It alone of tho live classes Is able to build tissue aud to repair the dally waste of the colls of the IkmI.t, The protolds alone contain nitrogen, and ultrogcu Is one of the elements necessary to life.

POLICE BELIEVE THAT SALESMAN KNOWS OF THEFT I'KOTEIDa rATS RAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 3. When railway detectives began searching for tho "man and woman" beliovod to have stolen $10,000 in gems from the trunk of n Los Angolas jewelry salesman, they believed that tho theft was accomplished by means of tin ingenious switching of checks on tho trunk and on n battered suitcase which replaced tho trunk. Today the detectives are working on tho theory that Harry Adams, tho salesman, knows more than ho cares to reveal about the tranfmetiou. fol lowing their discovery that onlv the duplicate bnggago checks were changed and pot those attachnd to CONSTITUENTS.

The latter iim more t tin it throe-fourth curlmu. This (net at once proves that fat lu miiii loriu In the food to be eaten when heat Is tv quired. It Is the food which appeals to the appetite more strongly In winter than lu summer and Is liked better In cohl climates than In warm. If It weiv Impossible to have both fat ami sugar lu the diet no great harm would result tu tho body for some time, because hotli contain the same elements and both perform the same function name ly, give heat and energy. Not so with the protclds, however, heenute, being the only elans which contains nitrogen, im other can substitute for them. Danger In Overeating. After learning of the Importance of proteld foods the first eoucliiinoii may be that they should form the greater part of tho diet atid should mrj;el compose the dally bill of fare. This Is a common mistake ami one to be care fully avoided, The Intake ot tend should not be greater than the uetilx or the body and b ptvnerve It normal equilibrium. Too imich rood ot any khul' necessitates too iniiili vvuri; on tho organs ot digestion and eit-uilna-tlou dud proiiuccH certain irregularities of the body functions. Too, luuch pro-teld--tiat Is, too liberal au allowance of meat. fish, eggs, cheese, etc.. lu the meals will clog tin system with urea, throw too much work on the kidneys lu their etl'ort to carry off this final product In the digestion of proteld. loo much pioteld lu the diet induces rheumatism aim similar disorders. When too much fat. or carbohydrate. Is eaten It Is xtorod up in tlie lMy as fat. aud the Individual lluds hluuu'lf putting on adlM)se tissue to perhaps an uncomfortable degree. There U tiinn' lunger lu thH ountry froui overeating than then- Is I rum lack ot (ood. Just as tbe engine Is likely to wear out more quickly because of too bard tiring than from no-u of fuel. The amount or food required to prop erly develop the body and keep It In normal condition depends on different conditions, such as the occupation of tbe individual, the age of the Individ ual, sex, climate and itersoual Idiosyncrasies. The man or woman engaged lu bard physical work require more of the food which repair tissues than docs the th'rsou living a sedentary life. The a mount of fresh air In which the In dividual lives will also determine largely the rapidity with which food will be oxldlxcd In the body. Cor in stance, the farmer, working in the fields, will require more nourishing foods than the man who sits in tils of fice all day. The farmer's lungs ure constantly filled with freb air: his blood Is tilled with oxygen. He Is per forming work which requires much physical energy; hence his food Is rap Idly burned lu bis body lu order to yield the necessary etiergj. and he Is hungry. He has a good appetite for hearty food, and he digests It with pump The man or seiientary nanus finds his stomach rebelling and blm xeir lu general discomfort If he at tempt to follow the example of the farmer for any length ot time. How Much to Eat. Occasionally we hear the Uitlou, 'llow much should we eut?" Vet, as u rule, tin- average person uoes uoi trouble himself very much on that ?corc and eats what a pampered appe tite demands rattier than the amount he actually need. Dietary specialists have found from many experiments that au uvcruge man doing tiveraue work requires each day about four and a half ounces ot proteld, two ounces or fat and sixteen ouuees of carbon; driite. An average woman doing the tturU of an average housekeeper re tjulrcs a little less, probably about three ounces of proteld, one and a half unices or rat ami twelve ouuees or carbohydrate, The boy fourteen to sixteen years of age requires four-fifths as much food as Ills father, and the boy or girl of twelve years should have half as much food as uu adult Itei-ently certain specialists have been able to reduce the amount of proteld still lower than the above standards, which ure less than those given ten or wnlve years ago. Uut us long as the prcseut habit of "bolting' food with Ipsulllclciit mastication Is common In the country It Is not safe to reduce the amount of proteld to the lowest possi ble figure, Tbe amount of food con stituents which I hare suggested can be easily obtained from standard food materials; less of these will tie re quired if the foods are properly cook ed. Just here (he housekeeper's skill Is called Into account. No matter bow nutritious and easy of digestion foods may be In their uncooked state, they may bo almost, If tint entirely, ruined as rnr as digestion ami ussimiiuiiou aro concerned In the process of wok- ug. A single portion of beefsteak, two ;gga und an ounce of cheese, with milk uud a little on lineal, will furnish all lie tissue building material the aver age man will require for one day, A half loaf of bread and a half pound of potatoes, with ordinary helping of rice l ad u tablespoouful or sugar will rur- iIhIi tho required amount of carbohy drate, uud the required fat is easily obtained from the butter used on the bread, the oils In the cheese aud the fat lu meat. There 1h much more chance of too much fat being eaten with tho ordinary meal than too little. We aro likely to underrate the value if wilier In Hie diet and use It too sparingly, Water Is a food and a very necessary one. Its ilulles for the body are numerous and Important. It helps to carry food to the blond, assists lu fit try lug off the waste mutters, equal- lr.es the temperature of tho body und acts as a solvent for food.
