An Efficient County Clerk (Continued from page 1) last and all the time, in the inter ests of Oregon taxpayers. We have great need of men of the Marks caliber in our legislative halls. We have been too careless in regard to the quality of the men we have sent down there to repre sent us and a glance at the tax statements now being sent to tax payers shows the result. Our legislators, for the past few years, have used much of their endeavors in creating numerous new commissions and officials, which have so enormously increased taxation that the people are fairly groaning under the burden. Therefore we need a legislature and need it badly now, whose central thought and purpose will be retrenchment and the lopping off of useless commis sions and officials. The Tribune be lieves that Mr. Marks will work early and late to this end and that the people will not be disappointed in his election.

Advice on Food Given “Foods and Foolishness” was the title Dr. Woods Hutchinson gave to his lecture at the Taylor street Methodist church Friday night under the auspices of the Portland Womans Club. Not only did the eminent lecturer and physician advocate eat ing an abundance and variety of food, but he overthrew many popu lar beliefs as to the value of some diets. “After all,” said Dr. Hutchinson, “foods are merely fuels to get the steam out of the human engine, and meals are but coaling stations. They are good if we take plenty exercise after them to burn the fuel up. And it may surprise some of you to know that out of the food that the average man eats there are distilled two quarts of alcohol every 24 hours. “As to preference for foods, con trary to general belief, it may be laid down as a general axiopi that the things we like are the things that are good for us. And this old idea of plain food is an ascetic idea of the past. “There was a day When people advocated the greater nutriment of brown bread because ■ had more nitrogen in it than thqswhite, until it was discovered that "-all of the surplus nitrogen was iff the form of husks and bran, whicl^are absolute ly indigestible in the human intes tines and gave rise to what is known as ‘brown bread gastritis? “For many ages there was a pre judice against pork because it took 4i to 6 hours to leave the stomach, but the real digestion is not in the stomach but in the upper part of the small intestine. Ham and bacon are now recognized as among our most nourishing foods. “We used to think sugar danger ous. Now we recognize it as one of the best of foods. We even give it to typhoid patients in the form of ice cream, a half to three-fourths of a pound at a time. And the U. S. buys candy by the ton to send to its soldiers in the Philippines. So with butter. “Another exploded theory is the evil of eating between meals. Eat when you are hungry. Especially is this true for the young growing child. It cannot stand the five or six hours to wait between meals. Its fuel burns out in from three to three and one-half hours.”-—Ore gonian. FOR SALE BY J. M.
