DIET AND HEALTH HINTS By DB. T. J. ALLEN Food Specialist SUGGESTION TO DR. SAR GENT. Dr. Sargent of Harvard Uni versity, finding that the young man who lived on the simpler diet, excluding meat, etoadily gained over hla brother who lived on the mixed diet, doee not admit that this teat la conclu sive. He believe* that one can have greater energy and aggres siveness on a diet Including fresh meat. Yet all such tests have shown that the exclusion of meat from the diet gives greater physical endurance. It would be instructive as well as Interesting if Dr. Sargent would arrange for such an experiment to test the comparative value of the simple diet in a trial of both physical and mental endur ance. I can furnish a man who will undertake a strenuous In tellectual and physical contest for 30 days or longer, on a sln fle article of food with water only, If he will furnish one who will eat what Is commonly re garded as the best furnished by a first-class hotel while doing the same Intellectual and physi cal work daily. fcAfiftS tot Nil JOURNAL HOMER* GA., FEBRUARY 19, m 4 1914 Pensions To Be Paid Later In checking the pension rolls up for 1914,-it has been developed, that the appropriation made for the year 1014 is insufficient to pay those pensioners heretofore paid, now in life, and the new out-s ad ded for 1014, all at the same time; ! Therefore, after biking the matter | under advisement w ith the (Int er j nor, it has been determined- that those pensioners heretofore paid, that are now in life, should be paid j first out of the funds in hand, and j those new ones approved and ad ded re the rolls for 1914, must be j omitted from the pay rolls for the present, and held over until the General assembly, to convene in June next, can make the necessary appropriation to pay them. The only other recourse would be to pro-rate all pensions, and for this there is no law, and this would do injustice to the most needy on the rolls. Therefore, say Li all such residing in your County, to be patient and abide the time when the appropiution can be make and the money in hand to pay them; For their pensions for 1011 will surely lx: paid. They can rely iijm.ii the honor of the .State* as a isure guarantee for this payment, and t hat it will lx: dune, just as siK>n as the money is in band. With lx*st wistes, I am, Your friend. J. W.
