STRAWBERRY A PERFECT FOOD
Fruit Juices Admirably Adapted to Those
Requiring a Light Diet.

Although the strawberry lias been
in cultivation for nearly two hundred
nd fifty year.-. the wild strawberry
dates ba« I. Iitt«• the times of antiquity.
This luscious berry which today we
<• much enjoy, was peddled about the
>treets of ancient Grecian and Koman
itles by hucksters, many centuries in
the past Virgil sings of it in his pas
oral poems, anil Ovid mentions it in
words of praise.

Is, therefore, an American product. It
adapts itself to a wider range of hitl
tude and to greater extremes in en
vlroninent than any other cultivated
fruit. There are a great many varle
ties, each peculiar to its se :iem of the
count ry.
As the strawberry contains ahund
ant salts of potash, lime, and soda, its
value as a food can not be over-estl-
maft tl. What is more refreshing on a
warm day. after being fatigued from
labor in the Ileitis, or perchance, after

Gov. Marcus Morton's Rents.
The late Gov Marcus A Morton,
whose old home in Taunton. Mass.,
is now the Morton hospital, was as
careless In his dress as he was punc-
tual in collecting his rents. It was
no uncommon sight to see him walk-
ing the> streets without steickings. the
expanse between the- bottom of his
trousers ' legs and his shoes reveal
ing thai fact to the public.
One day as the governor passed
down the stre*et a flutter of white be-
neath bis coat-tails gave mute testi-
mony of the need of repairs in which
his trousers stood In a group of
iders was a wag who was aLso one
of the geivernor's tenants.

as the governor passed. "1 never knew

Children are naturally tender and

RYAN A MONEY GETTER.
Characteristics of the New Head of
the Equitable.
.Lohi\ Skelton Williams of Rich-
mond, Va.. one* of the foremost hank-
ers and railway organizers ot the
south, says eif Thomas Fortune Ryan,
the new heatl of the Equitable: "I
have known Mr. Ryan six years and
in that time have been associated
with him in enterprises In which we
were mutually Interested and opposed j
to him In struggles for the control e)f j
properties. It was difficult fe r me to I
understand that a man could be capa- |
hie of violating pledges and promises, j
deliberately and solemnly given, and !
afterward of looking me calmly in the ;
face, expressing friendship and appor- i
ently not at all ashamed or embar-
rassed—not eve.i angered- when j
bluntly told my opinion of his con- j
duct. Mr. Ryan has the tendencies j
which, if his lines had been cast in a
humble and contracted sphere, prob-
ably would have made him a klepto- I
maniac. His strongest impulse Is to
acquire money."—Chicago Chronicle.
SHAH ON HIS TRAVELS.
Persian Ruler Accompanied by Nu- J
merous Attendants.
No European potentate has. when
he travels, so many attendants, offi-
cers and adjutants with him as the
shah of Persia, who has recently been
visiting Vienna again. He is also ac-
companied by two of his little sons,
lo whom he pays o great deal of at-
tention, listening in the parlor cor to
their prattle with evident delight. A
Viennese journalist says that were it
not for the huge jewels in his attire
he would look more like a Wallachian
shepherd than like a shah. He is
short and rather stout, has sloping
shoulders and a body that loeiks as if |
it might be made of tallow or cheese-.
His countenance is thin, his features
relaxed, his expression blase. Though
he seems almost like a caricature,
there Is something pathetic about his
appearance.
Gudgeons No Longer Biting.
Confidence in Wall stre*et is at low
ebb, as evidenced by the refusal eif
the public to bite at the bait thrown
to it by promoters, speculators and
financial adventurers. In the good old
days all that was necessary to sell a
new stock or bond was the Indorse-
ment of some alleged reputable bank-
ing house. The banking house would
reap the harvest and let the public
hold the bag. But investors hove
learned a few things during the lost
few years and they are now as wary
of the traps set for them by designing
Wall street men as they ore of known
confidence sharks. What is needed in
Wall street is a thorough cleaning.

note of warning to the American peo-
ple when he declares that the ilealh
of Secretary Hoy and a number ed
other men prominently identified with
the government in recent years is tine
to too much work and tea) little exer-
cise. The statement coming from an
authority se> high can not be passed
without consideration. The energy
of the American is one of the wonders
of tin* world and there is reason to be-
lieve that persons in private life tile
from the cause that has token so
many public men. The mad pace ap-
pears to pervade all branches of so-
ciety. and while some men have the
wisdom te> temper their toil with the
necessary exercise they appear to be
the exception rather than the rule,
it is therefore plain that if Americans
are to live their allotted days they
must change their mode of living, but
how ? The principles are' established
and it is difficult to change them. It
has become almost second nature for
the American to hustle, evidently one
of the most dangerous elements of our
business life.

Roosevelt's Opinion of Root.
Some months ago President Roose
velt uttere'd this estimate of Elihu
Root: "In John Hay 1 have o great
secretary of state. In Philander
Knox I have a great attorney general.
In other cabinet posts I hove great
men. Elihu Root could take any of
these places and fiil it as well as the
man who is now there. And. in atidi-
tion, he is what probably none of
these gentlemen could be—a great
secretary of war. Elihu Root is the
ablest man I hove kneiwn in our gov-
ernment service I will go further
He is the greatest man that has ap-
peared In the public life of any conn
try, in any position, on either side of
the ocean, in my time."

THE PACE THAT KILLS.
City Dwellers Wear Themselves Out
with Useless Hurry.
The microbe of hurry, hurry, use-
less hurry. Is in the air; so much so,
in fact, that it is almost impossible
for a city dweller, no matter how well
balanced he may be, not lo become in
oculated with it. Wine, women and
song are not the only influences that
go to make up the "pace that kills."
The average life if the business oian
er the- society woman hurries people
to catastrophe as fast as does that < l
the "rounder" or "dissipate."
Did you ever do any thing on this e>r
der—rush your meals, rush your ploy,
make a fool eif yourself running half
a block for a car already crowded to
the guards? You plead guilty, do you?
Then you are going a pace thot kills
just os surely as the more widely her-
alded pace. Kansas City Star.
