(Heinrich Heine, 1797-1856, was a German et and miscellaneous writer, author of “Travel Pictures,” etc.) The town of Gottingen, in Germany, famous by reason of iis university and its sausages, belongs to the kingdom of Hanover and contains 999.fire stations, divers churches, a lying-in hospital, an obseérvatory, an academic prison, a library and an underground tavern, where the beer is excellent. The brook that flows past the town of Gottingen is called the Leine and serves for bathing in Summer; the water is very cold and at some places the brook is so wide that one cannot .'u% across it without some exertion. e town of ‘Gottingen is'very hand- some and pleases me- best when my back'is turned to it. ¢ o Gottingen must be very old, for I remember that when I matriculated (and was soon -afterward: rusticated) five years ago, it had the same gray, ancient appearance and was as thor- oughly provided, as- it is now, with poodle dogs, “dissertations, laundresses, anthologles, roast pigeon, Guelph deco- rations, pipe bowls, court - councilors, privy councilors and silly counts. * * * In general, the inhabitants of Gottin- gen may be divided into students, pro- fessors, Philistines and cattle. The cattle class is numerically the strongest. To_place on record here the names of all professors and students would take me too far afield, nor can I even, at this moment, remember the name of every student, while among the pro- fessors there are many who have as yet made no name for themselves. ‘The number of Philistines in Gottin- gen must be like that of the sands—or DIET AND HEALTH BY LULU HUNT PETERS, M. D. Calories and Vitamins, In an editorial headed “Are Calories to sSuffer Fate of all Has-Beens?” written in a California newspaper last year, the writer, commenting on the discovery of new vitamins, says: “ * * * But in our enthusiasm over the vitamins-let us not forget the unfortunate calories. Not so long ago they were the whole cheese. Came the vitamin and the calory was out of & job. More vitamins. The un- employment rate among calories has grown to be something frightful.

They deserve Something better than utter neglect.” Yes, indeed, - the calories deserve something better than utter neglect, and I'm surprised that an editorial writer should neglect them so much that he doesn’t even know the meaning of the word. The calory is simply a scientific unit used to measure the energy and heat producing value of foods, and it has no connection what- Abe Martin Says: | I the helpful ‘jazz ¥ is the jazz ele- | buit ment featured in muslc, but in- art, | an to wrest beauty from peculiar elements, it takes an artist in both line color to do it. The amateur and the Inexperienced cannot expect to play with these things successtully, Suitability should be a keynote There are many things in the matter of color alone in which black, white or neutral shades are far better than gay colors. For instance, in kitchen sinks black, gray or white are suitable. Iron, once in high favor, succeeding, as it did, the wooden sink. an 15 the color of soapstone, an excellent substance for sinks. White, one color of marble, once confined to bathroom bowls and slabs, has entered the kitchen, and become a favorite for kitchen sinks and washtubs. The reason why these tones are wise is easy to understand. There is nothing jarring to nerves, sensitive to color, when preparing food that would clash at times with any pronounced color, as, for instance, peeling tomatoes at a pink sink! Imagine, also, trying to reconcile any decorative color scheme suited to a kitchen with the pink sink, for this color is one of the pastel shades apprpriate to chambers. In costuming an esthetic effect in color combinations can be obtained in textiles for the designing of which ex- perts are employed. It is for the woman to see to it that the color in its general effect is becoming, and that the color and pattern sult the par- ticular costume for which the material is bought. Having done these two things, she still has to carefully con- sider each accessory to be worn or carried with the costume. Shoes, stock- ings, hats, even down to handkerchiefs, are items for special thought in se- tion. i (Copyright, 1020.) My Neighbor Says: Don’t peal rhubarb before it is cooked.

Lemon juice applied to the hands after washing dishes keeps them soft and white. rather the mud—of the sea. Truly, when they appear in the morning with their dirty faces and their white bills at the gates of the academic court one wonders how God could have had the heart to create such a pack of scoundrels! More thorough information concern- ing Gottingen is easily obtainable by reference to the “Topography” of the town, by K. F. H. Marx. Although' I am under the deepest obligation to the author, Herr Marx, who was my physician and did me many kindnesses, I cannot praise his work without reserve. I must blame him for not having opposed in terms sufficiently ‘strong the heresy that the ladies of Gottingen have feet of spa- cious :dimensions. 1, myself, have been engaged for a long time upon work which is to destroy this erroneous idea once and forever. For this purpose I have studied com- parative anatomy, have made excerpts from the rarest books in the library and have for hours and hours observed the feet of the passing ladies in Ween- der street. In my learned treatise I intend to deal with the subject as follows: 1. Of feet in general. 2. Of the feet of the ancients. Of the feet of elephants. . Of the feet of the fair inhabitants of Gottingen. 5. Summing up of opinions delivered upon feet in Gottingen. 6. Connection and comparison of feet with calves, kness, etc. 7.

In the first place, the vitamins haven't been isolated, and in the second place, it is not their function to produce en- ergy or heat, except in a roundabout way, in promoting general well being. No, indeed, the calory is not, nor will it ever be, a has-been, unless some other unit to measure the energy and heating value of foods is found which serves the purpose better. This edi- | torial writer also is mistaken ip think- ing that everybody is forgetting about the calory. The overweighters, the underweighters and the diabetics, and others who have to know something of the energy and heating values of their foods are using the knowledge of calories every day. And getting re- sults, too. It is only in unscientific food literature that you read such an article as the one quoted. Viva le Calerique! “My hands have always very much.

So she and Peter had drawn plots of the garden and marked off the spots where the different things would be planted. Peter came home early one afternoon and told Nancy that she was the prettiest picture he could im- agine in his garden, and in truth she did look like an illustration as she worked in the garden bed. She had on a gardening smock and a wide-brimmed floppy hat which protected her skin from sun and wind. She had listed the following things as necessary and due for immediate attention: Sow dwarf morning glory, sprinkle crystals of ammonium sul- phate in ground just below surface around rose plants.

Belleve me, for a man to make a quick success is rarer than for one to be struck by lightning. It does happen, of course, but it occurs so seldom that it is one of the phenomena of nature, and is not to be counted upon. N “Practically always, behind the quick, spectacular success of which we hear 80 much are long, patient years of hard work of which we do not hear. Years and years in which a man wrote and rewrote stories or articles and sent them out to editors only to get them back again until he could have papered his room with rejection slips, but he stuck at typewriter until he wrote the book that made him suddenly famous. “Years and vears in which ah actor played in obscure stock companies until he developed the technique that one night put his name in elecmcpluhts on Brogdway.

If he has tried half a dozen lines of different work and has been employed by a dozen different firms, I turn him down, for I know he lacks patience and will never amount to anything. “I know he is one of the chaps who expected to make a quick success and to leap from bundle boy to president of the company in a couple of months, and that when he found out that there was half a lifetime of hard work between the two jobs, he quit and tried something else, and when he found that, too, required patience, he resigned to try something else again. I know that he will never learn to do anything thoroughly and never be worth his pay to any employer. % “As I see it, the lack of patience is the great handicap under which the present generation #8 trying to run the race of life.

P. ‘The, Boston citizens who crowded into the “imposing, elegant council chamber of their town hall one gray February day in 1761 did not know until long after that they were participating in one of the great hours of history. George III had instituted his famous writs of assistance, providing blanket warrants for search and scizure by which he hoped to stop smuggling and so enforce taxation without representa- tion. Now the Superior Court was con- vened to hear argument on the issuance | % of a writ. Full-length portraits of Charles II . and James IT gazed calmly down from the walls of the chamber. The five judges of the court, imposing in volum- inous wigs and scarlet robes, pretended an equal polse, but the assemblage nevertheless felt a current of deep feel- ing, although 15 years would pass be- :;Are New England would turn to revolu- jon. ‘Then James Otis arose to speak in behalf of 60 merchants who were op- posing the writs. In a moment elec- tric tensity held sway. Among those present was John Adams, whom the years would make President of the United States, but who then was a law student. attend- ing court to increase his knowledge. Long afterward he wrote: “I do say, in the most solemn man- ner, that Mr. Otis' oration against the writs of assistance breathed into the nation the breath of life. Then and there was the first scene in tha first acts of opposition to the arbitrary claims of Great Britain. * * * Then and mere the child of independence was n.” Why did the speech of James Otis assume such importance? Well, in the first, place, the feelings of New Eng- land to this date had been inarticulate. dissolved them. Thirdly, Otis had un- til now represented the crown as advo- cate general, and had resigned his of- | fice in order that he migat iignt the | writs, thus becoming a public hero. Finally he was a great orator. On this | day, according to John Adams, ‘“he | was a flame of fire. * * * A rapid burst | of impetuous eloguence.” | “I will to my dying day oppose with | all the powers God has given me ali| such instruments of siavery on the one hand, and villany on the other, as this writ of assistance is,” he sa | “I have been charged with desertion | from my office. I renounced that office principle. * * * It is in opposition to a kind of power (and here,the speaker glanced at, the portraits of Charles and James) the exercise of which in for- mer periods of English history cost cne | King of England his head and another | his throne. * * ¢ “Let the consequonces be what they will, I am determined (o proceed. The only prineiples of public conduct are to sacrifice estate, ease, health.and ap- plause and even life to the sacred calls of country.” This firry commitment stirred the listencrs to their very deépths. The court's decision was ultimately against the writs, but James Otis was not with- out his victory. As John ‘Adams said, “Every man present appeared to0 go away to take arms against writs of as- P GLASS. sistance.” Partisans became patriots. New England heard what Otis said and nodded in grim approval. Poor Otis. He was one of the prime movers in the events that brought on the Revolution. But before actual hos- tilities began, still in his middle age, he had lost his mind. With occasional in- tervals of lucidity he lived until 1783. He was killed by a flash of lightning.

I fain would feel I have the right to roast those men who rob by night. who shoot and slay and slug; who violate the Vol- stead law, and who for revenue will draw foul liquor from a jug. I'd eriti- cize the gangsters bold who are inclined to have and hold whatever they can touch; who laugh at cops and kindred sports, and hurl deflance at the courts, and knock the statutes dutch. I like to talk and paw the air when seated in the public square, on pleasant after- noons; denouncing crime in cvery phase, I'd spend the balance of my days, with other moral loons. But one must see his hands are clean before he tells how beastly mean the other fellows are; his garments should be snowy white, and he should have a record bright as any dazzling star. If I remark, “Some tin- horn laws I won't observe, by Grimes, because they are not just or fair,” I lose my cherished right to roast the members of the sinful host who flour- ish everywhere. I have the right to roast such laws as don't seem fit for human_craws, but while theyre in effect, I paste those statutes in my hat, and often take a glance thereat, and make my course correct.
