WHAT SHAI:L WE" EAT
Long ago the Teacher said, "Take
no thought for what ye shall eat or
what ye shall drink," We are taking
so much thought about these matters
that there will soon be no need of
thought because there will be nothing
left to eat or drink.
The childish rhyme will soon be
fact. It asks "If all the world were
made of paper and all the seas were
ink, if all the trees were bread and
cheese, what would we have to
drink ?"
The world we live in is all made of
microbes or things that breed mic-
robes. If there is any substance that
does not breed microbes, that is the
home of the bacilli. Where these
enemies of life are absent, come the
bacteria in an army and enter: in and
dwell there,
A Londoner has discovered that
nearly all the diseases to which the
people of his. country fall victims are
from potato. Another is of the opin-
ion of Moses that the pig is full of all
uncleanness, and a third would rob
Scotland of the "staff of life" there,
oatmeal. It has not been asserted yet
that the horse would live longer, be
more tractable and do more work if
the nose -bag were taken from him
and sawdust put in his manger in-
stead of hay.
One fact no more establishes a law
than one swallow makes a summer,
The London food faddist who stamps
the tuber for which the world is in-
debted to America as "death in the
pot" probably generalized on few pre-
mises. No doubt starchy food is not
good for old persons, but that will ap-
ply to all the cereals as well as to
potatoes. No doubt these foods are
not good for those who lead sedentary
lives. It is a fact that oatmeal re-
quires much cooking and is not quick-
ly digested. The pig is unclean if his
keeper forces him 'to be, and if per-
mitted to put on too much fat the
meat is not the best kindof food. At
best it is a very concentrated food,
and if used in too large quantities will
not prove conducive to good health
and longevity. In some climates less
pork may be eaten with advantage
than in others, and the idle may not
eat as do those who work hard, or in
some way get plenty of exercise.
As a 'natter of fact, the Scotch are
peculiarly robust in spite of oatmeal
being difficult of digestion. The Eng-
Iish who can get a fair share of good
Limerick bacon for breakfast enjoy
better health, live longer and do more
work than the Englishmen who get
no bacon at all,
As to the potato, across the "nar-
row seas" is the green isle which has
robbed America of the credit of giv-
ing the world the
potato. o. Now, it is
notorious that Irishmen whose daily
ration from the cradle to the grave
consists for the most part of potatoes,
or who, when a change is made, take
to oatmeal porridge, live to extreme
ages. They wash down the potatoes
with buttermilk that sometimes has.
an edge on it as sharp as a knife.
Absolutely, some of the Irish peasants
who reaeh four score, or the century
mark and beyond, who do a man's
work for fifty to seventy-five years
and are strong and vigorous, know
little of any diet excepting potatoes,
buttermilk and oatmeal. They are
very happy it a bit of bacon is part of
the menu.
In all the 'populous parts' of Europe
the potato crop is important. About
the only meat they have is pig treat.
Why? Because an acre of good land
will produce more stomaehfuls of
victuals if seeded to potatoes than
any other crop. Next comes cabbage,
a very much enjoyed delicacy on the
part of many poor persons in those
lands where it is not permitted to be
too curious about what is eaten,
As to the pig, he will put on meat
faster and at less expenbe than any
other beast used for human food, 11e
is filthy only when. forced to lie in
the dirt, The Irish peasant is too
intelligent to compel his pig to be
filthy ; the pig is kept in a Olean,
warm bed because he thrives there.
1f the pig is fed on unsound food he
will contract disease and pass it on,
Eat If the refuse of the kitchen and of
the table is given to him before it
decays, he will be sound and his meat
will be wholesome.
Who more hardy than the Scotch,
who have keener brains, who are more
industrious P Yet they live on oat-
meal, potatc;ps and bacon. They line
longen this rather monotonous
raton.
People generalize too rapidly and
run to theories not founded on wide
experience. The mho_ap'pl'e here as
well e11 as In morals t Frcrve things f

TUE WINGIIAAT ADVANCE
THE FARMER'S WIFE.
There once was a farmer who had a
good farm,
Where hard and long toiled he ;
But hesaid he could do more work
in a day
Than.bis wife could do in three.
"If that be so," the good wife said,
Then this you must allow,
That you should do my work for one
day
While I go drive the plow."
Se the little wife took the lines in her
hand
And went to drive the plow,
And the big "ran took the nice clean
pail
To milk the Jersey cow.
But the Jersey mooed and the Jersey
chewed
And the Jersey switched her tail;
But when be begged her to be good,
She promptly kicked over the pail.
So when he'd milked the Jersey cow
For 'tear she should go dry,
Ile then must feed the seven pigs
That were within the sty.
And then he watched the speckled
hen
Lest she should lay astray,
But he forgot to iron the clothes
His wife washed yesterday.
By night, the tired farmer swore
By a)1 the stars in heaven,
That his wife could do more work in
one day
Than he could do in seven
Vinegar Talks ey The Wilson
Lytle Badgerow Co,, Toronto
(The Largest Vinegar Works
In
America)
TALK NO. 2–QUALITY OF VINEGAR.
' Quality counts every time, The
critical house -wife wants the "best"
always. Nobody wants strong butter
or stale eggs, so in vinegar nobody
wants to use the inferior and health
destroying acidous vinegar that is
frequently offered for sale. It is pos-
sible to go round to the drug store and
have a vinegar made up, but who
would want to use that kind of stuff
on their table. Vinegar of quality
must be absolutely pure, of high
strength, strictly clean, of palatable
flavor, well matured, containing all
the essential ethers, etc., etc. Wil-
son's vinegar contains all of these
good qualities and more. It is made
under Government supervision which
in itself is a guarantee of quality in a,
measure. All leading grocers have
Wilson's in stock, Demand WiIson's
and no other.
The following grocers in Wingham
always have Wilson's vinegars in
stock:—J. H. Christie, J. T. Lennox,
H. Isard & Co., W. Bone, A. J. Mal-
colm.
WHAT CURED HIM.
Sao. had neurasthenia—(doctor said)
Cannot tell you why—
Knew there was no hope for him,
And so went home to die.
John announced his tragic fate,
And said unto his churns,
"I might as well enjoy myself
Until the summons comes."
And then he went a -fishing
Every morning for a week,
Took a swim each afternoon.
And then in manner meek,
Began to take an interest
In work—heard nature's call ;
But instead of mooning around,
He whitewashed the house, the
Barn, the garage, the chicken
House and thh corn crib ; hauled
Gravel from a gravel pit in
The woods, and made paths
. Where paths were necessary ;
Chopped wood, carried water;
Did more fishing, more swimming,
Moredriving ; ate large
Quantities of plain food ;
Drank large
Quantities of water and
Buttermilk ;
And didn't die at all.

A Woman's Suggestion,
A good story on one of the reeves at
the last Bruce Oeunty Council meet
Ing is vouolled for by a subscriber.
The worthy reeve has a number of
fine cattle on his farm, and one day
while endeavoring to teaeh a calf to
drink from a. pail, he became so dis-
couraged that he went to the house
and told his wife his troubles, saying;.
"Well I've tried every thing to make
that calf drink out of a pail, and he
simply won't drink," The good wife
ill a quiet way replied:"Well, J --
why don't you take it to County
Council."--( Port EIgin Times,
During Past Six Months,
Fines paid by offenders against the
Provincial liquor license law for the
Brat six months of 1010 totalled $8,323,
according to the half -yearly report of
Superintendent 3. E. Rogers, of the
Ontario Provincial Police. During
that time members of the force seized
4,740 bottles of whiskey, 82 gallons, 216
flasks, 15 barrels, 1 keg of whiskey, 2
gallons of gin, 1 barrel of stout, 3 kegs
of beer, 221 bottles of wine and 4.9 gal-
lons of high wines, Fine imposed for
offences saucier the criminal code
totalled $35,101,955, and constables' fees
returned to the department amounted
to $1,351,81.
Thirteen Eggs, 18 Chicks.
The following is from the Dundalk
Herald, and we should be inclined to
doubt it only that we know the editor
of that paper to be a truthful re-
porter ;
e -porter; here it is :—"Reeve Van
Dusen, of this place, is the owner of a
remarkable mother hen, which was
set on 13 eggs with the expectation of
bringing out a good brood of chicks.
The day the chicks were due, the
reeve and his family were away to the
fishing reserve and on their return
were more than delighted to find the
hen mothering 18 nice lively birds.
There were evidently a number of
twins in the lot and the reeve is
somewhat puzzled over the freak,
which is his first experience with
fowl."
Where We Lose -Money.
Here is an illustration of how our
finances are managed, The last load
floated by Finance Minister Fielding
in England brought 992 and the rate
of interest we have to pay on it is
three and a half per cent, This
money is being borrowed for the pur-
pose of lending it to the Grand Trunk
Pacific. The rate the Grand Trunk
Pacific pays us for it is three per cent.
Hence on every hundred dollars for
the Grand Trunk Pacific we lose 50c.
That is not all, after that we lose a
half of one per cont, per annum, be-
cause we have to pay that much more
for the money than we are getting for
it. No banks would care for trans-
actions of this nature for the reason
that they are not conducted on party
political principles.
A Holiday Suggestion,
Isn't it tinge to consider a merger in
national holidays? Let Dominion
Day stand, because that is our very
own, but there are three other holi-
clays which mightpossibly be
consolidated. These are Empire Day,
Victoria and the King's Birthday,
Wouldn't it be better to focus our
patriotic fervor on two big significant
occasions than to spread it thinly over
four? The amalgamated holiday
would fall on the 21th ,of May, which
has been bred into us with 64 years of
habit, and it would be called Victoria
Day, because under that good, great
Queen the British Empire went furth-
er ahead in all the walks of life, than
under any other Sovereign. The
school teachers could lead up to the
proper spirit for it by telling the
children of the great statesmen,
warriors, philosophers, authors and
inventors who have but the British
Empire where it is today. For
Dominion Day the teachers would tell
all about the constitutional develop-
ment of Canada, our resources and
our judicial, Provincial, municipal,
penal and educational systems. To
know the Empire and Canada like a
book would vastly help the influence
of two great holidays,
