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

who in itUowliiijr him, today express

path of the flames.
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-;

to leave the saloons. Numbers of'
constables were sworn In and a 1
roundup resulted In a batch of 30 ,

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. Tho

common foods according to their prin

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

duplicate bnggago checks were
changed and pot those attachnd to

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

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

food which repair tissues than docs

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

yield the necessary etiergj. and he Is

hearty food, and he digests It with

finds his stomach rebelling and blm

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. Its bouafiU
