ESKIMOS LAUGH AT DYSPEPSIA Pegpte in the Far North Consume Any- thing, and Never Suffer the Pangs’ of Indigestion. ‘We hear much of American dyspep- sia, but there is one:native race of America that 1s certainly not troubled In this: respect.” The Eskimo defies all the laws of hygiene and thrives. He eats until he is satisfied; but is said gever to be satisfied while a shred of his feast remains unconsumed. His capacity is limited by the ‘supply, and by that only. - The Eskimo cannot make any mis- take about the manner of cooking his food, since, as a rule, he does not cook it. "Nor, 80 far as the blubber or fat of the arctic animal is concerned, is the Eskimo concerned about his man- ner of ezting it. Indeed, he may be said not to eat it at all. He cuts it Into long strips an inch wide and an Inch thick, and then lowers the strips down his throat -as one might lower a rope into a well. Despite all this, the Eskimo does not suffer from Indigestion. He can make a good meal off the flesh and skin of the walrus, provision so hard and gritty that in cuiting up the ani- mal the knife must be continually sharpened. B ‘The teeth of a little Eskimo child will, it is said by those in a position to know, meet in a bit of walrus skin as the teeth of an Amerjcan child would meet in the flesh of an apple, although the ‘hide of the walrus is from-half an inch to an inch in thick- ness, and bears considerable resem- blance to the hide of an elsphant. The Eskimo child will bite it and di- gest it and never know what dyspepsia means.—Harper's Weekly. GUM CHEWING AN OLD HABIT Red Indlans Are Said Thus to Have Quenched Their Thirst in Fif- teenth. Century. Gum cnewing in the United States appears to be a general habit, as it would take quite a few gum chewers to-use up what is manufactured. More than 30 million sticks of gum:is the annual output ‘of American - factories All this stuff is made of chicle which comes from a gum tree in the tropics, the importation of chicle inta the United States figuring up two mil lion dollars a year. The chicle busi ness has become-a big industry in the republics to the south. . The gum tree 18 tapped very much the same as the rubber tree. Spanish explorers found the Indians of this hemisphere chewing.gum:te quench their thirst away back.in the fifteenth century, and they reported that it relieved exhaustion; but it was 1876 before gum chewing became a habit among the nations, so at least the gum makers say, being guided in their opinions by the statistical res ords. Still, the oldest inhabitants say they always had-gum. Resin or some thing else must have been chewed be fore the modern gum factory“brought- out a substitute that was better liked Since' that time the demand for this commodity has increased to such an extent that importing firms have been obliged to search the markets and ex: ploit the growing. of the tree-in order to ‘obtain a supply sufficient to mee! existing- requirements. Chance for the Reformer. The'Chicago Evening :Post opens up & vital question in ethics by wondering how soon the:time will.come when the toastmaster at a Banquet will feel at liberty to squelch the speaker who hag overrun his time limit. Here is a chance for those earnest souls wha spend their leisure and other people’s time by organizing.societies for the prevention of things. We believe we echo the soulful sentiments of nearly every experienced bon vivant in lay ing down the ‘dictum that a proper banquet should be' one-fourth' oratory and three-fourths gustatory. When the proportions are reversed—as usually happens—there'is joy in neither phase of the things, and life becomes a howl- ing wilderness and a dreary waste, Every banquet speaker should . be placed ‘on- an automatic platform which would either collapse and drop. him into a coal chutesor gently wheel him out of the dining room at the end of 20 minutes. something more ’ than an. endunm contest:. : § 8aving: ‘EI-;&H Repeatedly interrupting th for ‘infinitesimal Jargest standard locomotive which pull the'fastest passenger:trains are rated at about 5,000 horsepower. .

No matter to wiat ex- tent -the “steam railroads electrify, they -are still -classifiéd” under steam railroads: Thé- thousands of poléd used to string wires are classified ' under the lumber industry.. The great cop- per companies, producing “practically exclusively® for electrical industries, are classified under the copper indus- tries.”, Dr. Wheeler estimates that the to- tal business in electrical machinery in the United States was in the neigh- borhood of $300,000,000 for 1912. This estimate seems conservative when we realize that the Jast: census reported the total business for:1909 at $243,000, 000. Facts and figures like these make one realize how rapidly and com- pletely the practical application of electrical power is revolutionizing ‘all modern life and industry. - — White. of -Selborng’s. Portralt. Bargalns continue to be made ‘on the streets of London, and naturalists and-antiquarians in the old country have been ‘greatly excited by the: lat- est of these; for it relates to a portrait of the celehrn!e‘d naturalist, the fa- mous Rev.

Most people think that Columbus was the only man of his time to believe that the earth’ was round; but there were many others who had the same idea, among them being John-Cabot. Full of this idea, he moved. to London about 1484. He submitted his proposition to the lead- ing merchants of Bristol, England, and met instant encouragement. For many years Cabot tried to car- ry out his plans to reach Asia by sail- ing west; but all his attempts ended | in failure. And then in 1493 the news reached England that a sailor | |ized his dream.

North America had been discovered; but John ' Cabot, finding the soil fertile and the climate pleas- ant, was firmly convinced that he had reached the northeastern ' coast of [Asia, from where came the silks and Drecious stones that he had seen at Mecca. The royal banner was un- furled, and in solemn form he took 'possession of the country in the name of King Henry VII; of England. On his return to Bristol in: August he hastened to court, where the king gave him $50°for having “found the new isle.” The following year' Cabot made a second voyage ‘of: discovery; hoping: this time to secure some of the fabled riches of the East. But he sailed too far to 'the north, and was finally forced to return’ without having real- He died the same year, 1498, - His son Sebastian was ‘born at Bristol, England, in 1477, and ac- companied his father on his first voyage to North America.
