NEW YORK, June 4. 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.

NATURAL LIFE
IS 120 YEARS
Recipe Eat What You Want
When You Want It, Chew it
and Be Happy.
"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

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
