A Vegetable Diet Very many people believe that a purely vegetable diet is muen the best for human beings, and that meat induces diseases, both of the mind and the body. Man has been provided with all kinds of teeth used in the maßtification of all kinds of food, from which one might reason that he is in tended by Nature to subsist upon a varied diet and not upon veget ables alone. The experiment of vegetarian diet has been tried on a large scale by the Chinese and Japanese, whose poorer classes subsist upon rice, and by the peo ple in the South of Europe, who live on macaroni. The English and the Germans live on a mixed diet, and they’re much larger and much more strongly developed. These people also indulge in a liberal diet, and have a greater number of meals a day. Nowhere will you find finer physiques than in England. A glow of health is seen in the face, and j their statuo is far greater than the ' people of the South of Europe and ■ of the East. I think Dr. Fletcher! has doue much for some who have j suffered indigestion from hasty] eating and “bolting” food. I as-, sure you if you would have a good \ complexion you must “chew your food fine,” as I was instructed to do when I was a child by one whose cameolike complexion bore out the truth of her sayings and practices, In fact the matter of food is a question which must be settled by : the individual. The amount and kind of food, and the frequency with which it should be taken, one can find out best for herself, but take a sufficient amount of good, nourishing food to be healthy and good-looking 1 raise a voice of warning to my friends in these days of starvation methods, that the martyrdom of abstemious diet ing should not be followed too far, in the desire to obtain a fig ure that the present fashions | would seem to demand .—“Health i and good looks,” in The Ladies’ I World for February. In tho valley of Rebas, in the Pyrenees, is found a race of dwarfs. They all have red hair, broad faces and fiat noßes. Waited Quarter Century for Ladylove. B itn r. Ga. Feb. 2—Twenty-six years ag>> Miss Vara Leslie, of Alexander City, Ain , became en i gaged to Ben 6 W llliams, but un happily u lover’s quarrel ensued, and the young man ieft for Colo rado to make his fortune in the I gold mineß. Now having heard from her sweetheart in eighteen months, Miss Leslie became en gaged to John E Walker, of South Carolina, and just a few days before their marriage a let ter was received from the Far West begging Miss Leslie to “for get and forgive.” His answer was a return of his ring and a polite little note informing him of the approaching marriage. Twenty-five years intervened, Mrs. Walker’s husband had been dead several years. Ben S Williams had been true to his only love, and one night he wrote back to Georgia to his boy hood friends, and incidentially in quired about Mr. and Mrs. John E. Walker. His friend wrote back that Mr. WaJker had been dead five years. So by return mail Mrs. Vara Les lie Walker received a letter from her old sweetheart. She answered and now tbey are wedded. She is wearing the same band of gold he gave her twenty-five years ago. What makes the story more in teresting Mrs. Vara Leslie Walk er Williams, neice and namesake, Mrs. Earl W. Anderson, is a resi dent of Butler, her husband being pastor of the First Methodist church. FRANK F. GODDaRD, A TTORNICY - AT- L AW, Public Accountant and Auditor. Lyons, Ga. System Installed.
