The girls of Horace Mann School have been forbidden to wear ultrafashionable or extravagant headgear, false hair, elaborate adornments of jewelry, iilghheel shoes and peek-a-boo waists. . This sweeping edict was given from tho pulpit In the chapel. Ever since, the new dress reform has been tho chief topic of discussion among tho girls, who aver that tho boys In tho school are allowed wide latitude In their solection of wearing apparel. For months the question of proper dress has agitated the pupils and In terested tho teachers, A certain clique of girls have been in the habit of going to their class In raiment that verged upon the extremely fash ionable types. Finally, a girl showed liersolf In a hat that bewildered her colleagues. It was a Gainsborough affair with untold decorations. She waB told by one of tho teachers that sho must not wear such a hat to school. Another girl revealed a coiffeur gay with little artificial puffs nnd was promptly commanded to leave tho surplus attachments at home. Theso Instances aroused a keen rivalry among tho girls in tho mat ter of dress, until tho decision was reached to toll tho girls that thero must bo moderation In dress. THE NEW AGE.

"One hundred and twenty years Is the natural term of life." "Health, perfect health, is a men tal and dental question." "The dentist stands at the gate way of preventive medicine." "All discussions of health and effi ciency hark back to chewing. There is no other place for them to lead to." "Don't count the chews or do any thing to make eating a bore. Any thing that detracts from the natural enjoyment Is injurious." "Don't eat by schedule or when worried, especially when angry." "Fletcherism is opposed to excess In any form, even In chewing." "Eat when you feel like it and eat what you want." "Fasting is nature's universal rem edy. I knew a man who had been thrown on the scrap heap and could hardly bo pulled away. He fasted for thirty-seven days and got rid of Hright's disease and other maladies and even lost a wart." "Eating may be a religious func tion or the sacrilegious abuse of sacred responsibilities." NEW YORK, June 4. These are some of tho pointing lingers on the road to Wcllvlllo which Horace Flet cher at tho Berkeley Theatre held up to tho League for Political Education in his discussion of "Health and Eniclency." Only ItelViee is the lloily. Mr. Fletcher had been preceded by Dr. William Gilbert Anderson, di rector of Yale University gymnasium, who made the experiments on Flet cher and his son-in-law, Dr. Van Sa merou, when It was discovered that tho mnn who at forty-five had been given up by the doctors at flfty-flve could boat tho best athletes. "Fletcher will tell you to chew your food and Wiley will counsel you to swallow it whole, as a dog does," said Dr. Anderson, "but tho only ro fereo is the body." "1 used to go to sleep," said Flet cher, "so hopeless that I wished I might never wako up. I was deter red from suicide only through tho fear that I might miss something pleasant on this side of tho Styx. Tho story of my recuperation is tho story of many famous men and women. Ono you already know Mrs. Hum phry Ward. A celebrated physician and a prominent politician are also In the list." Tho founder of Fletcherism recom mended that a child should bo train ed in the way It should chow from tho first moment that It demonstrat ed a doulro for food. Kilting Should Not be Tedious. "Some nervous pooplo," ho said, "suffer by thoir great effort to do CHAMPION EGG EATERS MONROE CITY, Mo., June 4. Whether It is something to be proud of or not, Monroe City has, in George W. Kldd, a resident who is a tremen dous eater. He is good for ten eggs at any meal, but holds the palm at eating fruit and candy. One even ing shortly after a hearty supper George found that his appetite was not quite appeased so he ate thirty six bananas, sixty oranges and a pound of candy, so that he would not retire hungry. "I really don't know how much I could eat," said George, "because eating is expensive." He is five feet ten inches tall and weighs 220 pounds. The feat of John Glffen of Wins- ted, Conn., who ate eighteen eggs at one sitting, has been outdone by Frank Ryan of Whiteside, Mo., who ate thirty-five at one sitting, and he had no thought of making a record. The next day Frank ate nineteen for supper. He likes them scrambled. Rocky McPlke of New London, Mo., is willing to meet any man who thinks he can eat eggs. Eats Seven Dozen. TRENTON, Tenn., June 4. It Is believed that a local negro Is entitled to the egg consuming championship. For a wager of $15, he recently devoured seven dozen raw eggs and topped off his luncheon by eating the contents of eighteen boxes of sar dines. The negro declares his wil lingness to meet any egg eater in the country In a contest for tho national gastronomic championship. Tries For Honors. MAN1STIQUE, Mich., June 4. Joe Sheets of Shaalcraft county, will attempt to win the title as champion egg eater of Michigan soon, when ho will give a public exhibition as a consumer of hen fruit at a local hotel. He has guaranteed to devour not less than eight dozen eggs, and Is hopeful of getting away with ten dozen at a single sitting. tho right thing even In chewing. This is in direct opposition to Fletcherism. Eating should have no element of tedlousness, When do I eat? I eat anywhere between 11 a. in., and C p. in. Ordinarily I take a bottlo or milk, a small pitcher of cream, some bread and butter and a potato. I have been gradually led away from heat diet until I have acquired a repulsion for it." Fletcher said he was obliged to chew less now than at first because tho digestive secretions had grown more active. Ho likewise Insisted that the perfectly normal body re quired less sleep and that five hours were ample for him under present conditions. Ho never sleeps more except when ho Is In Venice, at his homo and "Indulging lazy habits." The speaker placed no limit on tho necossary fast. He thought tho body Itself tho best suggostor In this re gard. Ho spoke of his advanced youth and instanced a man of 100 who from 10 a. in. until 9 p .m. had dictated a story of 10,000 words of his scheme of living which neither fatigued him nor required revision. ANTI-TREAT CLUB LATEST Business Men of Kelso, Ore., Save Money by Novel Organization. KELSO, Wash., June 4. An antl treatlng club, composed of some of the best-known men of the commu nity and embracing many of the moderate drinkers of Kelso and Catlin, who In the past have been among the best patrons of the sa loons, has been formed here. Some years ago the saloons of this city were on the principal business street, and owing to complaints from women, the city council forced the saloons off the main business street and restricted them to tho street fronting on the Northern Pacific Railroad. This was shortly followed by an enforcement of the Sunday closing law, and at this time Kelso believed that a great deal had been done to Improve conditions. But when the antltreatlng club was form ed by the men about town, It was found that the former changes were but a small matter compared to the last In the suppression of drinking. Members of the new club, many of whom spent from $1 to $1.50 per day in the saloons before joining tho new organization, claim they not only save themselves large expenditures, but as a result of joining the club have cut down their dally consump tion of liquors. They say that under no conditions could they again bo Induced to return to the old order, while the saloonmen complain bitter ly thht this organization of their patrons has done them more harm than did tho enforcement of tho Sunday closing law and the removal of their places from tho principal business street. The old town of Catlin, across the Cowlitz river from Kelso and con nected with the latter by a draw bridge, Is now a part of Kelso, the two having been' Incorporated under tho latter name. In the new part of the city (In tho old town of Cat lin) there are no saloons. The ori ginal owner of the townslte, when he laid out tho town of Catlin, Incor porated a clause In the deeds for all time prohibiting tho sale of Intoxi cants on land covered by the deeds ' issued by him, and while efforts have v UL'UU 1UUUU 11 uuiuuui ui iimvo iu va- tablish saloons thero, none has ever been oponed, n fact that Is making that sectlou a popular residence district.
