THE MIXED DIET IS THE LOGICAL DIET FOB MAN

one of the interesting exhibit; at the Chicago Century of Progress celebration was that showing the ien of the digestive ti-oct—froin mo tn right down to lower end of the large intestine from whence the wastes (feces) leave the body. one exhibit was of the cow, the grass eating annual. another of the dog. the meat-eating animal, and the third of man who eat: meat. grasses and vegetables.

It was found that the length of the intestine when digstion 1; carried on was much longer (in Pmmrtion to the length of the animal) where grasses were eaten (cows) than where moat alone (does), or meat and vegetables (men) were eaten. The length of the intestine in the cow was about 8 to 10 times its own length, that 0.‘ man 5 times, and that of the dog 3 times.

The natural conclusion to come to from this knowledge is that the cow neetk A long intestine to give time to absorb nourishment, and that dogs need only ii. short infest. me as meat. is quickly absorbed ill- to the blood. _

Thus as man has A length of in- testine part. way between cows and dogs he shouid therefore eat. both meet. and vegetables.

Now there may be conditions in which meet should not be used-— kidney or bloodvessel atiments- but. the idea that meat is danger- ous and that man should live on fruit and vegetables alone is a mistake. ' V

or course there are individums who have been able to prove that the meat diet alone can keep them in perfect health and others who have been able to prove that veget- ables and fruit. alezie gives them their excellent health and energy. The point to remember however is thai meat. contains much fat, and that many of the vegetarians eat milk, cheese and possibly eggs which are “animal" foods.

Now it is posible that those who can live on meat alone, or on fruit and vegetables alone, are “differ- ent" from the rest of us in build.

wise. However we might all very well follow the advice of Prof. Mc- Collum. Johns Hopkins, who says that the ordinary diet of meat. and potatoes to which either some raw fruit or vegetable is added daily, is the ideal diet.

Sir John A. Helped To Name A Cardinal

(Fred Williams in the Ottawa Journal)

In 1888, fifty years ago, it was announced in Quebec news- papers that the Right Reverend Eizear Alexandre Taschereau, Archbishop of Quebec, had been oriented a Cardinal by Pope Leo XIII.

It. cannot. be presumed that the choice of His Holiness could be in- ﬂuenced by the suggestion of a. Canadian who was not. only Prime Minister of the Dominion but also most. of his life 3 member of the orange order; yet it was B little peculalr that almost on the heels of the official announcement. from Rome there were hints by the Con- servative French press correspon- dent at Ottawa that sir John A.

When I spoke to the Marquess of Salisbury, then Prime Minister, he entered warmly into the proposal and advised me to see Cardinal Mimning, with whom I had the honor of a. previous ac- quaintance. He told me that through the Duke of Norfolk. the tender of the English Catholics, he would move Cardinal Howard who was then at Rome. to press the claims of the diocese of Quebec and in your grace as the incumbent of that historic diocese. to the post- tlon of cardinal.

Sir John was pretty astute! The French-Canadians were at that time st. the height. of the agitation over the execution of touts Roll and it could do no harm to let. it he known thst the leader of the Oomervntive parfy had had influ- ence It the Vatican.

And he darkly hints that it might become a mere playground for tourist.s~—or something worse.

And yet we cannot. entirely quar- rel with Pm Bono. for he plainly has his mind intent on another ex- cellent idea, namely. the improve- ment. of our country school grounds. And it is surely I shame that in a country where land sells for $30 per acre. so few districts can afford ever one acre for B playground for boys and girls. But does not Pro Bono know that. the persons whom he ridicules as park fiiddists are the very ones that he could count on for support in a movement to sup- ply safer and better school grounds?

It is truly interesting to observe the different senses of value that exists in different minds. One writer, for instance, we no advan- tage whatever in a National Park. but he sees urgent need of more protection for human life; as though‘ the two things did not go naturally together. Another sees some probable advantage in such it park, but he would nevertheless much rather see the amount requir- ed to establish it. spent on hard- surfaced roads. That is. two miles of hard concrete road looks better to him than any park whatever that he can imagine on P. E. Island. Park lovers (we mean those people who love parks) would on the "other hand, prefer to travel over decent. 018)’ loads. if these led them to a nice park, rather than to travel over scores of miles of concrete road and still find no fresh green spot of earth where they could rest to their hcﬂ.rl’.’S content. Pro Bono says our Island in full of such places. namely, the privately-owned woodlands of our farmers, and that their good City friends are welcome to a share of these. I am afraid that Pro Bono,

No, no, Pro Bono, farmers today do not want city folks to be intruding on their privately-owned woodlands. not yet on their privately-owned shore- lands; and hence, there is a. crying demand today for public spaces of woodland and shoreiand, so that respectable, health-seeking citizens, and innocent, pleasure seekers from town and country may find free and ready acceéls to these, none dar- ing to make them afraid.

I am not, however, a. tourist. en-

thusiast, and think it perfectly silly that people could ever hope or im- nxlne that this country could rival Florida and Switzerland as a tourist resort. A mere school-boy can see that nature well dmigiled these last. two countries for tourist, trade, one on account of its long summers and balmy winters. and perpetually worm ocean waters for bathing; and the other on account of its grand. unconquerable, inviolable moun- ruins, unsuited for anything except as objects of admiration and health resorts. But. nature has made P. E. Island, every inch of it, too fertile to be eventually 8. more playground, and it is now happily, we think, A]- most every inch of it, a wel1—tli1ed garden. and justly tanned the "Gur- den of the Gulf." This is our heri- tage, and we should not lightly hand it over to all sorts of idle sports from all over the continent, basely tempted to do so by the al- rnighty dollar; in this I am heart and soul with Pro Bono Pubilco. But nevenhelem, there is no reason why the Island should not cater to a certain amount and a certain quality of tourist. trade: and the quality should be the very best. And -we have learned from experience that it In the very best quality who look for such accommodation as quiet. perks and quiet, decent seaside resorts. Pm Bono suggests the fear that the park mlghtbecome a resort. for ali aorta of vice; and if the park should be ’ ' ‘ on the Coriey Islllld principle, we would share his misgivings. But natural parks pos- itively do not. M.t7riu'.t. criminals, as the records oi’ crime will prove. For every crime that is committed in 5 park. one hundred are. " ‘ in the crowded haunts of men and women; and that there is some- thing so'ot.hlng, purifying and uplift- ing about forest and seashore. mue- ly needs no labored argument.

Pro Bono Publico sees plainly enough the need of safe and pleas- ant playgrounds for little children: believe me, the big children need them also. Have I not. watched them for twenty-five summers re- velling tn the innocent. enjoyment of natural putts, especially in stan- ley Park. Vancouver, which is per- haps the finest natural part: on the Dominant, containing as it does three or four miles of primeval for- est, surrounded by ‘ ‘rm and border-inc on the son: an. nded also by one good automobile road, but religiously guarded Against all int-rsoetiona nvo footpaths that lead to open spaces within the park or right through to the opposite aide, by some path: is mllo distant. A day’: visit to this park constitu the chief Jeuura of the year to thousands of people, not only from Vlnootlver, but also from New West- mlnatcr, 16 miles distant, and from town! twice as far away. Here are held every iiuriimer, the Bundn, school picrllca of dolenl of city ciiumhu sud countless societies. How well I remember, about twenty 10”!

fine-looking, jolly group of men, women and children who were hold- ing a. picnic. A glance at the peri- nants revealed the fact that they were the Prince Edward Island Club. and as naturally as it Flee Mason would join the group were they of his own order, so I joined those and in a. few moments was as much at. home, and in as fine a family, as 8. man could possibly cle- sire to be. In regard to the cost of the park. let. it be remembered that if $40,000 is spent on a park for Prince Ed- ward Island, almost 100% of it. goes directly to the people of the island. Compare this with $40,000 igilt, in constructing two miles of concrete road in which case perhaps 50% goes to foreign countries for ma- terial, and then you have only got an experiment, of doubtful value as ' compared to a really good gravetled road.

But. we are not writing to knock hat-d—surfaced roads, but, to boost. for natural parks which we think ought. to bill in all three counties of our province, though we certairuy think the Grand National‘ Park ought to be in Queens county, near Charlottetown, and between Char- lottetown and Borden, on one of the main roads, as near to the salt. wa- ter as possible and commariding it fine view of landscape. The least. common multiple of these factors is the logical site to be chosen. Bur. however, 1 for one greet. with ‘de- light all other suggestions appearing from time to time on this and kindred subjects. In it not as a light in darkness to find that even in this grossly materialistic age. there are still some men and women who are not lnsensible to "whatso- ever thinxs are pure and whatsoever things are lovely?" We cannot. all have the National Park where we would like it. But if it is chosen logically and tastefully we will all rejoice in the accomplished fact of ii. thing of beauty for our province, and a. spot where any Canadian could rest. for I while and say with l1;x;i::e_,' "this is my own, my native
