AMAZING BUT RARELY SUSPECTEDTRUTHS ABOUT THE THINGS YOU EAT

'ilccVnn.) By ALFRED W. McCANN

CHAFTKK 102Tlic suggestion that hominy should

\u25a0lie more extensively consumed by the

jioor should bo accompanied by awarning?The fats removed from*>m In the manufacture of hominyare not fats like lard, cottonseed oil,lx-cf suet, tallow or lubricating grea.se?They are peculiar fats, withoutwhich even little mice will not growand children are enfeebled?Wholecorn, the cheapest food in America,not only contains these peculiar fats,but possesses a flavor no longer pres-ent in hominy.

The bulletin designed to popularize(Standard grade head rice was follow-!ed by another designed to emphasizethe virtues of hominy.

"We are tired of technicalities, pro-; teins, carbohydrates, calories, units,Iand other terms that the people don't\u25a0understand," said the hominy bulletin.' "We are interested in good, cheap'food. As long as we get such food itdoesn't matter much what we call it.Hice and hominy are good foods, andthe people ought to eat more ofthem."

Such statements as these are cal-culated, by their positiveness, to ac-complish the ends for which they arelittered. '

In language free from technicalitiesII lie plain truth about these denaturedfoods, head rice and hominy is herewet down so that people may under-stand just why they are not cheapfoods.

Hominy is made by steeping cornin a solution of sulphurous acid orlye. This soaking process gets rid ofthe minerals and fats of the cornWithout these minerals and fats noanimal can live.

The minerals are not ordinary min-! erals such as can be purchased in aI'drug store. They cannot be purchased!in a drug store. They are to be ob-tained only from the farm; never

' l'rom the pharmacy.Without them there is no lime, for

the tissues, no iron for the blood, andno phosphorus for the muscles.

Without them the chemical juicesor fluids which keep our insldes atwork, our liver, lungs. kidneys, andother glands going in the right direc-

-1 tion, become abnormal, and we de-velop many distempers, such asitnemia.

Anybody who looks at a pale house-, wife, a pale shop girl, or a pale child! knows what anemia is.

Anybody knows what a run-downphysical condition means. The doctormight call such a condition neuritis,nervous prostration, or he might saj

it represented the second, third or

fourth class of malnutrition, accord-ing to the scale established by the

Carnegie Trust Company in Dun-fermline, Scotland.

He might speak of secondary ane-

mia, of deficiency of red corpuscles,

or ho just might say that the person

who has suffered a loss of these min-

erals is "all knocked out" or partlyknocked out.

In speaking of a child he might say

that its growth has been impaired andits chances of developing into ahealthy man or woman cut down toone in ten.

In speaking of a woman he mightsay she is unfit for motherhood.

In speaking of a man he might sayhe ought to go to a sanatorium tobuild up, for he certainly cannot holddown this job in such a "worn-out"physical condition.

The fats that are removed in themaking of hominy by the soaking,steeping or leaching process are notfats like lard, cotton seed oil, beefsuet, tallow, lubricating grease orother fats of their kind. They arepeculiar fats, specially constructed byMother Nature, and without themeven little mice will not grow andchildren are enfeebled.

Hominy contains none of theseminerals and none of these fats. Theystay in the steep water. Nothingcomes out of that water In the formof hominy l-ut starch and a trace ofgluten.

The Wicks Investigating committeereported Wednesday. Feb. 28, 1917,that the farmers of the United Stateswere being defrauded to the extentof millions of dollars a year, becauseunscrupulous manufacturers worekeeping these priceless elements offood out of the sacks of stuff con-sumed by farmers' cows, and that thehealth of tho cows suffered accord-ingly.

Every state in the Union has on itsstatute books a food law w'hich readsas follows: "Food shall be deemedadulterated if any valuable constitu-ent of the article has been wholly orin part abstracted."

Polished rice and hominy nre bothadulterated. Under the laws of theUnited States they have been adulter-ated for many years. But the laws ofthe United States in these matters arenot enforced.

All chemists know that valuableconstituents of natural brown rice andwhole corn are abstracted in the mak-ing of head rice and hominy. Theyare no longer present in these so-called foodstuffs. The human animalis robbed of them.

The United States Public HealthService just ten months ago warnedthe 'people of the United States of theperils involved in their consumptionof highly milled and denatured grainssuch as polished rice and hominy.

Dr. Carl Voegtlin, Dr. M. C. Sulli-van, and Dr. C. M. Myers signed thogovernment's bulletin, which recordedthe results of many analyses of de-natured wheat, rice and corn made inthe Bureau of Chemistry of the De-partment of Agriculture and at theHygienic Laboratory, showing thesefoods to be robbed of many essentialelements necessary to the health ofthe body.

They have started pellagra in thesouth and they can bring it north.

The larger the quantity of suchfoods we consume the nearer we ap-proach the danger line. The under-nourished children of the UnitedStates (144,000 in New York Cityalone) have passed across that line.Many of them will- never return.

U. S. WILL DEFEA TGERMANY,WHO PREDICTED

RUSS REVOLNew York, March 30.?That the

Russian revolution was bound to occuras the result of dissatisfaction with de-

feat of the Romanoffs and their mili-tary policy by the German successes

on the eastern front was predicted ayear and a half ago by Snell Smith, anewspaper man turned prophet, ac-cording to a book just published byRobert J. Shores.

In this work, "The Destiny of theUnited States," it is also stated thatthe German empire is now doing itswork in the world and is ruthless onlybecause of vitality within it, due inturn to natural processes of history.It then goes on to prohpesy that Ger-many will ultimately be defeated bythe United States. Its author, long aWashington correspondent, makes a

bold attempt to unravel the Book ofDaniel, about which tons of material.have been written during the lasttwenty centuries.

the beasts, they had their dominion(of empire) taken away; yet a longerduration of life (as kingdom's) wasgiven unto them until the time andperiod (of the end of the dispensationin the Feleration of the World). 1looked in the nightly visions and, be-hold, with the clouds of heaven (inspiritual inspiration) came one like theson of man (in appearance, thoughinspired) and he attained as far as theAncient of days (in the completion othis work) and they brought him nearbefore him. And there were givenhim dominion and government anddignity (as president of the entireearth), and ail peoples, nations andlanguages had to serve him: his do-minion which shall not pass away, andhis kingdom is ono which shall neverbe destroyed."

Daniel relates that after this hisspirit was deeply shaken within himand his head troubled him! He con-tinues: "I came near unto one ofthose that stood by and asked himsomething concerning all this: and hespoke to me and made known to methe interpretation of the things.'These great beasts, of which there arefour, are four kings wlioare to ariseon the earth. But the saints of theMost High (who are liis servants) willobtain the kingdom, and possess thekingdom (in ruling over it) to eter-nity, even to all eternity.' Then I de-sired what is certain concerning thefourth beast, which was different fromall these others, exceedingly dreadful,whose (armed) teeth were of iron,and whose nails (munitions) were ofcopper (metal), which devoured,ground up and stamped with Its feetwhat was left (of the beasts or king-doms that had gone before); and con-cerning the ton hornr (kings) whichwere in its head (of tho state) andconcerning the other (German Em-pire) which came up and before whichthree fell down?even concerning thathorn which had eyes and a mouthspeaking presumptuous things andwhose appearance was greater than itscompanions. I had seen how the samehorn had made war with the saints(of liberty and righteousness) and pre-vailed against them (in the presentwar); until the Ancient df davs cameand procured justice unto the saints ofthe Most High, an the time came and'he saints took possession of the king-dom. Thus said he, 'The fourth beastsignifleth that a fourth kingdom (theGerman Empire) will be upon theearth which is to be different from' allother kingdoms, and will devour allthe earth and will tread it down andgrind it up. And the ten horns out ofthis kingdom signify that ten kingswill arise; and another will arise afterthem (the Empire) and he will bedifferent from the first (Prussia) andthree kings (of Russia, England andItaly) will he bring low. And ho willspeak words (of materialism) againstthe Most High, and the spiritual saintsof tho Most High will he oppress, andthink to change the festivals and lawof religion (as Haeckel); and they willbe given up unto his hand until a time(a thousand) and times (anotherthousand) and half a time (half athousand, or 2500 years from G2 B. C.when the chapter is computed to havebeen written until 1938 A. D.). Andthey win sit down to hold judgment,and they will take away his (the thenGerman emperor's) dominion, to de-stroy and to annihilate It unto the end.And the kingdom and the dominionand the power over the kingdoms un-der the whole heaven will bo given tothe Saints of the Most High, whosekingdom is an everlasting kingdom,and all governments are to worshipand obey him (the Messiah)."

Taking one of the predictions of theIsraclitisli prophet of Babylon, who isdeclared to be a genuine character,

the book interpolates explanations inparentheses as follows: "1 saw in myvision by night, and behold the fourwinds of heaven blew fiercely on thegreat (Mediterranean) sea. And fourgreat beasts (of Europe) came upfrom the sea, differing one from an-other. The first (Rome) was like aHon (In power) and had eagle's wings(to spread out over the land): I lookedtill its wings were plucked out, and itwas lifted up from the earth (indeprivation of its dominion) and wasplaced upon its feet as a man (instrength), and a human heart (torealize that it must meet its end likeall mankind) was given to it. And be-hold there was another, a second beast(tho Empire of the West), like a bear(of the northern climate), and on one(western) side (of Europe) was itplaced, with three ribs (Charlemagne,Charles V, Napoleon) in its mouth (tohold) between its (conquering) teeth:and thus they said, 'Arise, eat much(territorial) tiesh.' After this I lookedand, 10, thero was another (Britain),like a leopard (with many spots of

territory dotted over the face of the

earth); and it had four wings (BritishNorth America, Australia, South Africaand India) of a bird (that flew far)

on (or at) its back; the beast had alsofour heads (England, Scotland, Ire-land, Wales); and dominion (to the

extent of a fourth of the globe) wasgiven unto it. After this I looked in

the night visions, and behold there

was a fourth beast (Germany), dread-ful and terrible and strong exceed-ingly; and it had great iron teeth(strong armies and a navy); it de-

voured (territory) and ground up

(rights and institutions), and what

was left it (ruthlessly) stamped withits feet; and it Was different (in the

composition of the states of its king-

dom) from all the beasts that were be-fore it; and it had ten horns (or lungs,

as follows: Frederick 111, FrederickWilliam I, Frederick the Great, Fred-erick William ll,Frederick William 111,

Frederick William IV. William I, Fred-

erick 111, William II and FrederickWilliam V, now crown prince). I

looked carefully at the horns, and,behold, another little horn (Prussia)

came up between them, and three ofthe first horns (Denmark, Austria,France) were plucked up by the roots

and deefated before the same; and

behold there were eyes like the eyes

of a man in this horn (earthly, ma-

terialistic and seeking dominion), with

a mouth speaking presumptious things(of the divine right of monarchy andthe power of blood and Iron). 1 waslooking until chairs (for presidents)were set down (In preparation) and

an (individual) Ancient of days (who

had lived and wrought for many cen-

turies and is to be the Messiah) seated

himself (in the presidency of the

United States), whose garment was

white as snow (in spiritual light), andthe hair of whose head was like cleanwool (in inspiration); his chair was

like flames of fire (In Its successfulwarfare, and his wheels like fire thatburnt (and left lands In ruins); a

stream of fire (In war) Issued andcame forth from him (at his com-mand) ; thousands times thousandsministered to him (in assistance), and

myriad times myriads stood beforehim (as soldiers); tliey sat down to

hold judgment (of the history andcondition of men) and the books (of

the Old Testament) were opened (in

explanation). I looked then because

of the presumptuous words which the(Prussian) kingly horn had spoken?l

looked till the (German) beast was

slain and its body destroyed, and givenover to the burning fire (of the con-queror). But concerning tho rest of

MILITARYTACTICS IX MUDSand table work is acknowledged

to bo one of the most importantmeans of Instruction in militaryscience.

The sand tables used are ten feetlong, four feet wide J.nd three and Ione-half feet high to top of box, andthe box is eight inches deep. Sand isput in the box to a depth of sixinches. It is well watered with anordinary watering can.

Two sets of implements are used.One is known as the terrain set. Thefortification set contains eight gabions(round, bottomless baskets, filled withearth), four fascines (bundles ofsticks bound together), four hurdles,twenty bags for sand, one box ofblocks, representing sod, and onebundle abatis (obstacle composed offelled trees). Besides these, accord-ing to the Popular Science Monthly,there are trench models and materialto represent hills, woods, streams,railroads, bridges, concrete, kingpost, queen post, pontoon, railroadtrestle, one train, railroad, watortank and about fifty buildings, as wellas glass for representing bodies ofwater. Thin set teaches map-readingand contours, and with It It is pos-sible to do work In outposts, scout-ing and other problems in minor tac-tics, far more satisfactorily than onthe map.

B If our incomes just naturally increased as the cost of living went up, we wouldn't have to 9H bother our heads much about economy. But, unfortunately, the opposite seems to be the case, 9H though, of course, it isn't. 9
