POT DICKER AND M A Its HENRY
The hlgh.-browed Boston Tran-
script stimulated a round-up on the
food question by disrespectfully de-
fining potlicker as "the houn’
dawg's ambrosia. This started
them all up and down In Kentucky
till the matter came to the attention
of the Courier-Journal, who shook
hlk mane and delivered an oracle, of
which we can only quote one para-
graph:
"Real potlicker, the'only variety
worthy of discussion, Is distilled
preferably in an iron kettle over
wood fire—from hog Jowl and wild
greens. It gets from the jowl the
flavor of closer leaves and jlew Im-
parted to that part of the pig's
anatomy during happy hours of
grazing in rich pastures. There Is
also a suggestion of the fragrant
leaves of sassafras bushes and the
nutllke quality of flint corn. The
commingled essence of'wild greens
—dandelion leaves, lamb’s quarter,
•pepper grass' and a dozen other va-
rieties—with a boquet added by the
penetrant wood smoke that en-
velops the pot in which the greens
caress the jowl, make the true pot-
lleker of the South ambrosial to
both the ‘houn’ dawg’ and the
twine,”
That ought to settle the men of
beans and pumpkins. What cun a
Bostonian know of good food any-
how, except from travel and hear-
say? Whoever yearned for the
fieshpots of Memorial Hall, or made
joyous pilgrimage to Washington
street's beaneries or to the Wo-
man’s Educational and Industrial
Union opposite the Common? The
food of the South Is real eating,

on horseback most of the day.

appetite for food, which in turn
must have an unfavorable effect on
the entire body, in the Commis-
sion's experiments, the people living1
In fresh air ate 4 1-2 to 12 per cent
more than those living In stagnant
air.
“These experiments." says Pro-
fessor Winslow, "indicate that
fresh air Is needed at alt times and
in all places. While we have
changed our Ideas as to what causes
bad air, ventilation is just as es-
sential to remove the heat produced
by human bodies as it was once
thought to be to remove the carbon
dioxide produced by human luugs,
and it is now proved also to be es-
sential for carrying away chemical
products which exert a measurable
effect upon the, appetite for food.
People who live and work In over-
heated and unventflated rooms are
reducing their vitality and render-
ing themselves an easy prey to all
sorts of diseases, such as tubercu-
losis, pneumonia, grippe, etc."

Air is bad when it is overheated,
when it oou. la- ah excess of units
t1 re. und when it is chemically con-
taminated. This is the conclusion
of the New Yoik. State Commission
on Ventilation, as summarized by
Professor C. E. A. Winslow, chair-
man, in the official organ of the
National Association for the Study
and Prevention of Tuberculosis,
the, Journal of Outdoor Life.
11 Professor Winslow shows that
while it has been a matter of com
nion (belief for a long time that
stagnant air was bad for the body,
until recently no one knew why
this was so. The New York State
Commission on Ventilation has defi-
nitely proven two counts against
bad air, one of them for the first
time in history, and will probably
prove others later on.
The first indictment against bad
air shows tjiat an increase in tem-

There was some cltivalry in n naval
fight in tlie good old days of Blake and

unknown and naval commanders
"courted war like a mistress."
When the Spanish Admiral Oquendo

said, “1 have jiowder enough for both,
I will give him half mine.”

To which Van Trump replied. "I have
plenty of masts, a. whole shipload of
them, and you can have them if you

Theodofe Roosevelt vwio Voiced that
sentiment; nor, again, was it William
Howard Taft. It was Mgyor Ru-
dolph tilankenburg, of Philadelphia,
a German American, and the occas-
ion was a joint requiop meeting of
tbe Society of the Amy of the Vf>-
Prince Louis of Battenberg, the
Austrian who rose to the office of
First Sea Lord of tbe Admiralty in
England and was forced by public
opinion to resign last October be-
cause of his family connections in
Germany and Austria, is til years
old today. Thai he was a victim of
mean and foolish clamor is the be-
lief of the leading English papers.
But he was “game,” as we Ameri-
cans say and resigned his high post,
declaring it was duty as a loyal sub-
ject. Although born at Gratz, in
Austria, he had been naturalized in
1868 and entered the royal navy at
that time. He had won his honors
in active service and tbe modern
navy of England bears his imprint
It was his suggestions that secured
the timely concentration of sea
forces in the North Sea to meet the
war emergency. Prince Louis mar-
ried his cousin, Princess . Victoria,
the favorite grand-daughter of
Queen Victoria. By marriage he is
related to Emperor William of
Germany, the Kaiser being the eld-
est. son of Queen Victoria's daugh-
ter. Aside from his Austrian birth,
the chief argument his opponents
made against him last-fall was that
of Prince
Henry of Prussia, who holds a
somewhat similar command in the
German navy. There werp rumors
some time ago that Prince Louis
was confined in the Tower of Lon-
don, but these were untrue. After
clearing himself of the delicate sit-
uation by resigning, he retired to
his home. He has not altogether
ceased to be a power in England for
lie is greatly beloved by the naval
chiefs and it is said his Opinion is
often sought unofficially. But It is a
great disappointment to him that the
post which he earned by 46 years
of service should be shuffled from
his grasp in the big game ot nation-
ality, alliance and war.

WISHED SHE
COULD DIE
And Be Free From Her Troubles,
but Finds Better Way.
Columbia, Tenn.—"Many a time,'*,
says Mrs, Jessie Sharp, of this place,
*T wished f would die and be relieved
of my Buffering, from womanly troubles.
I could not get up, without pulling at
something to help me, and stayed in De>
most of the time,
housework.
1 could not do my
The least amount of work tired me
out. My head would swim, and 1 would
tremble for an hour or more. Finally, 1
look Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I
am not bothered with pains any more,
and 1 don’t have to go to bed. In fact,
1 am sound and well of all my troubles."
Cardui goes fo all the weak spots and
helps to make them strong. It acts wilh
nature—not against her. It is for (lie
fired, nervous, irritable women, who feel
as if everything were wrong, and need
something to quiet their nerves and
strengthen the worn-out system.
If you are a woman, suffering from any
of the numerous symptoms of womanly
trouble, take Cardui. it will help you.
At all druggists.
