Circumstances Alter Cases. Said In
diana Citizen Who Had Been
Forced to Pawn Watch.
Speaking of puns at a recent ban
quet, Congressman 'William A. Cullop
of Indiana told of the crime committed
by an esteemed citizen named Jones.
Recently Jones collided with a spell
of hard luck, and in order to make
his pork and beans and his appetite
meet he was compelled to pawn his
watch. While the watch was yet in
hock a friend chanced to ask him the
time of day.
"Why, what in the world has be
come of your watch?" asked the sur
prised friend, seeing Jones yank out
a time-killer of the turnip brand.
"HereJt is," Brniled Jones, extend
ing the cheap ticker. "Anything the
matter with your optical apparatus?
Yes, but that's a silver watch, per
sisted the friend. "The one you used
to have had a handsome gold case.'
I know it did," was the grlnful re
joinder of Jones, "but circumstances
alter cases." Philadelphia Telegraph,

Fundamental
Principles of
Healflr
By ALBERT S. GRAY, M. D,
(Copyright, 1914, by A. S. Graj)
THE DIET QUESTION.
Inquiries received prove that large
numbers of persons grasp only with
great difflcutly the fundamental princi
ples of nutrition and do not readily
discriminate between pure food and
wholesome food. The demand Is foi
some specific guide or chart aB to
what to eat. This is not the road tc
good health and happiness, but quite
the contrary; because until self-
knowledge and self-reliance are at
talned the individual is subject to all
kinds of vague and unreasoning feart
and fancies and Is, therefore, continu
ously in danger of exploitation by any
plausible faddist, with all the attend
ant dangers.
Next to rice, wheat Is the most uni
versally used cereal and In this coun
try It leads; therefore, more than anj
other plant, wheat becomes a constitu
ent part of our bodies.
Wheat begins to grow at 41 degree!
Fahrenheit and when the aggregate
temperature as represented by the
sum of the dally average .equals 185
degrees the germ begins to "hatch" oi
escape from the huBks if not too deep
ly buried. If too deeply burled, 8
greater amount of heat Is required pro
portionate to the depth, and if the seed
lies at a depth lower than one fool
It rarely germinates. Seedlings ceas
to grow if the average temperature
for the day remains below 42 degrees
Fahrenheit When young plants have
been subjected to an aggregate tem
perature of 1896 degrees Fahrenheit
from the time when sown, or of 171E
degrees from the time of germination
branching goes on freely and the
young ears form. Under the Btlmului
of an average temperature of 65 de
grees Fahrenheit, or a little above,
the flowers are produced. But a still
higher daily average temperature If
required for the full development and
ripening of the grain. An average ol
75 degrees is most favorable to ma
turity, with abundance of sunlight and
rain.
Given a matured wheat berry, what
has happened is that under the vitaliz
ing stimulus of sunlight the enzymes
and bacteria In the soil and the
plant have taken these elements, and
many others not hers mentioned, oul
of the soil and the air and bound
them together with the kinetlo energ)
of the sun into molecules of protein,
carbohydrate, fat, etc., the wheat berrj
serving as a reservoir of potential en
ergy until a suitable machine again
converts It into kinetic energy. As
Burning that the wheat plant had the
power to modify its environment bj
eliminating from its diet in the soil
one or more of the elements on whlct
its growth and vitality depend, we
should call It stupid and think it justl)
deserving of the smut disease and thi
blight that would inevitably attack 11
because of the weakness resulting
from the ensuing starvation.
By reason of ancestral adjustment!
our digestive organs are able easilj
to digest, transform and utilize this
wheat energy. The wheat berry it
food for us because it Is developei
practically in the same scale that we
are. But for some strange reason we
Insist on radically changing our en
vironment by eliminating from oui
diet the most important and vital pari
of the berry, thereby throwing oui
ancestral habits out of gear and creat
ing trouble. '

Entire wheat flour is wholesome,
but patent process flour, being un
natural, is less wholesome, even
though pure and more digestible by
demonstration outside the body.
Genuine whole wheat flour Is dim-
cult to obtain, but its high value as a
food is worthy of a determined effort
to get It and eat it each day in one
of the many palatable forms in which
It may bo prepared. As bread, raisin
bread, nut bread, gems, pancakes,
mush with cream and sugar and fried
mush, it is appetizing as well as nour
ishing. It cannot ordinarily be ob
tained at the markets; the flour sold
as "whole wheat" is usually a combina
tion of a few of the several grades
of flour and bran produced by the
roller process , and the germ is absent,
for flour containing the germ will not
keep. It Is necessary to leek out the
occasional small miller, who will grind
the whole wheat berry for you, or to
grind It yourtelf In a small mill at
home or a coffee mill will do at
pinch.
Had First Carrier Pigeon.
The sport of pigeon-flying, now pro
hibited by our war office, dates bad
less than 100 years, although the
Egyptians trained pigeons to Berve be
messengers 4000-odd years ago, and
their example was followed by the As
syrians, the Chinese, the Greeks and
the Romans. The first pigeon race
was organized in Belgium in 1818, and
two years later a bird was flown from
Paris to Verviers, where its arrival
was hailed by a procession with brass
bands. Over here the first pigeon
race was held in 1875, from Neycastle-on-Tyne
to Bexhill. The sport caught
on rapidly, especially in Lancashire
and Yorkshire, and such long distance
flights as from Manchester to San
Sebastian (700 miles) have been
achieved. Nowadays the English
clubs train about 1,600,000 birds an
nually, and "pigeon specials" of 16 or
20 vans are common on all our rail
ways. London Chronicle.
First Fiction Known.
Are you aware that " the "Tale ol
Two Brothers," written 3200 years
ago by the Theban scribe Ennana, li
brarian of the palace of King Merenp
tah, the supposed Pharaoh of the Ex
odus, is the oldest work of fiction
extant?
The tale was written, apparently,
for the entertainment of the crown
prince, who subsequently reigned as
Seti II. His name appears in two,
places on the -manuscript probably
the only surviving autograph signa
tures of an Egyptian king.
This piece of antique fiction, writ
ten on 19- sheets of papyrus in a bold
hieratic hand, was purchased in Italy
by Mme. d'Orblney, who sold It In
1857 to the authorities of the British
museum, where it is now known as
the d'Orblney papyrus. Tid-Bits.
HERE IS A WAY
TO GET RID OF PIMPLES
Bathe your face for several minutes
with rcslnol soap and hot water, then
apply a little resinol ointment very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes,
and wash off with resinol soap and
more hot water, finishing with a dash
of cold water to close the pores'. Do
this once or twice a day, and you will
be astonished to find how quickly the
healing, antiseptic resinol medication
soothes and cleanses the pores, re
moves pimples and blackheads, and
leaves the complexion clear and vel
vety. All druggists sell resinol Boap

Fish Stealing His Gasoline.
Leo Kelly, director general of Port

dest of mysteries. Kelly operates ths
motorboat ferry service. A few weeks
ago Kelly observed a mysterious dis
appearance of gasoline from his re
serve tank in the boat. Each night
a gallon or more of gasoline disap
peared.
Kelly searched for leaks, tested his
valves and could not find the cause
of the shrinkage in the supply. He
began to Buspect that some one was
pilfering during the night.
Watching his vessel to learn the
cause of the loss of gasoline he heard
an odd sound under the keel, and
casting his light down to the surface
of the water he saw an 18-pound pick
erel sucking gasoline from the escape
