Popularity of Meat Duo to Its Flavor, Not Nourishment Philadelphia Ledger. In consequence of the extortions of tho beef trust,every state has been unable to get their supply of meat; in many cases they have been deprived of it. They are thus driven to seek substitutes that would answer all the requirements for the maintef nance of health and strength. Fortunately, many have made the pleasing discovery that f meat, while a desirable article of food under many conditions, is by no means a necessary one ; moreover,that in the substitutes they have foods much cheap er than meat, even at normal prices. In seeking foods to take the place of the one they have been deprived one by the greed of the beef trust, the people have been materially aided by those who have given the matter much previous study, and it is surprising what a varied list lias been produced. One of the most instructing and informing papers on this subject was recently issued by f H. \V. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry in the United States department of agriculture ir.. .i 4^ in- [luiutuu out in me opening paragraphs that, even under the most favorable conditions of tho market, meat is an expensive article of food, and that the principal argument in favor of its use was not that it is essential to human life but in its pleasing taste. About 25 per cent, of tho total weight pur chased may be regarded as of nutritive. Whether persons can afford it or not the use of meats at the hearty early breakfast, that Americans often indulge in before going to their work, is earnestly advised against. Oatmeal, or some of the ordinary ^ breakfast foods, with sugar and cream, eggs, toast and cofTae, will sustain the health and I ^ strength of a man engaged in any kind of labor. Mr. Wiley declares that "in as far as act ual nourishment iw concerned the very cheapest and best that can be secured is the cereals, viz, Indian corn, wheat, oats, rye, rice, etc. These bodies contain all the nourishment neces sary to supply the waste of the body and the energy and heat necessary to all animal functions and hard labor, in a form well suited to digestion and capable not only of maintaining the body in a perfect condition, but also of furnishing the energy necessary to the hardest kind of manual labor. The waste material in cereals is very small, and, as compared with that in meats, practically none at all. In fact, the ordinary wastes, such as the bran and germ, are among the most nuitritive components of the cereals, and both health and economy would be conserved as a rule by their consumption, instead of rejecting them, as in the ordinary processes of milling." Meats arequickly digested, but their effects do not permit muscular exertion for any length of time. A meal of cereals, however, will sustain a man in prolonged and the most enduring manual labor. This is partly because such foods are more slowly digested and furnish the energy | uecoHHary to digestion and the vital functions in a more uniform manner. In other words, cerealb contain all the elements needed for the nutrition of the body, having in themselves, according to Dr. Wiley, the types of food which are represented by the fats, the nitrogenous or protein bodies, and the carbohydrates. More, they contain those mineral elements of which the body is composed?that is to say, lime and phosphoric acid. From the foregoing Mr. Wiley argues that if 'man were confined to a single article of diet there is nothing ? n which would be 10 suitable for his use as the cereals. Starch and sugar are primarily the foods which furnish animal heat and energy, and, hence, should be used in great Abundance by those who are engaged in manual labor." Even when meats are once restored to normal prices, it would be well for all classes, whether working men or men of sedentary habits, to consider this matter of foods more carefully, and accustom themselves to a greater use of cereals, as being not only nourishing but often more healthful than a bountiful supply of llesh food.

A Swap of Territory Proposal Between North and South Uarolina]Which Would be of Advantage. There is a movement on foot to organize a new county from upper portions of Spartanburg and Greenville counties. This suggests a measure which 1 have been thinking much about. There is a small section of South Carolina composing the townships of Fort Mill in York county and township of Indian Land in Lancaster county, which juts up into North Carolina, extending within twelvo miles of Charlotto. These two townships are cut ofT from theState almost entirely by CatKwba river and far removed from any town of any *1.- a.-..- . wn . oi/.c in i/iit? otiti-i* j r ore .villi DG ing the largest. I understand the people in this section do their trading at Charlotte, the most convenient point. For good business reasons, as well as geographical reasons, therefore these townships in our State should belong to North Carolina. Per contra, the county of Polk in North Carolina for the same reasons should belong to South Carolina. Most of the territory of Polk county is cut oiT from North Carolina by mountains and Broad and Green rivers. Their dealings are almost 1 1 * * * ^ exclusively wun una piace. conveniences and trade both suggest that the county should be annexed to this State. The aggregate population of the two townships in York and Lancaster, according to last census is 5,508, and population of Polk county less Cooper Gap township would have 5,947 people, making the two sections about even in population. I have no means of knowiug the valuation, but inasmuch as Polk county is mountainous, and is not a county of much wealth, I should suppose that tho two townships in SouthCaro1 i n fl llTAiil/l r>Antnin o rfAA/1 > ?f vy vit v?. vv/nuini (i ^UV/U UUU1 more property in valuation.

Never let Jim Tillman, the parliamentarian, incidentals a candidate for governor of South Carolina, raise his voice against the labor crushing, blood-thirsting and soul-grasping corporations. His warfaro* must hereafter be conducted on a more modified and consistent basis. All corporations must not be pushed to the wall. His platform must be changed. Let it also be known that it was a Charleston corporation which first showed the honorable parliamentarian that all corporations are not deserving of the fate that he has been calling down upon them. "This i*'Chicory'park,the damn longest ride that I ever got for the money." This is the way that Jim Tillman, the parliamentarian, delivered himself when the car reached the Btation at Chicora park about 10 o'clock last night, tie was accompanied by four friends. They all repeated the remark of Tillman in turn. They were all probably candidates for offices or coat-tail swingers, and they wanted to be in accord with their chieftain.
