VEGETARIANS GET
KNOCK OUT BLOW
THE BRAIN WORKERS
MUST HAVE MEAT
The editor of one of the lending
: medical journals has been search
ing the biographies of brain-work
ers to find one who has been exclus
; ively a vegetarian. He has found
several who tried a vegetarian diet
anl gave it up, but not one who
| persisted in it,
Benjamin Franklin who “stuck for
a year or more to his resolution to
eat no animal food, looked upon the
taking of animal life for purpose of
food as ‘a kind of unprovoked
murder.’" But when he saw small
fish removed from the stomachs of
j larger ones he reasoned, “If you eat
one another, I do not see why we
may not eat you,” so he dined upon
1 cod very heartily, returning only
now ami then to a vegetarian diet.
Herbert Spencer, after six months
of vegetarianism, found himself de
teriorating and returned to a use of
animal food. He says, “I had to re
write what I had written during the
time I was a vegetarian, because it
was so wantin gin vigor."
Tolstoy, who at fifty-seven adopt
ed a vegetarian diet, and adhered
to it for twenty-five years, complet
K his greatest works before he be
gan this diet.

WHY WE CAN NEVER FORGET
OUR FIRST LOVE
{From the Smart Set)
Few of us marry our first love.
We were either too young and
money too scarce or else we were
jilted. In some way we are made
to realize that “there’smany a slip
'twixt the cup and the lip.”
As time goes on conditions in
life change. We meet others and
seek their companionship. We look
back and camly smile upon our first
love and term it “puppy love. But
after all. we are inclined to cling to
this first love.
We never forget the first piece
of candy we tasted as a child, our
first long dress or pair of trousers,
our first valentine, our first love
letter or the first kiss! There is
no sensation like novelty; the new
ness and freshness of a thing is
what thrills us and keeps us from
being bored. That first flame help
ed to kindle all the others; it was
the first to set us all aglow—on
fire! That first love was real; it
was the original spark; the others
merely followed as a natural course
of events.
The first love was pure, spring
ing directly from the heart. It
didn’t have to be coaxed or petted.
No one started it for us. It sprang
up almost unknown to us, it star
tled us—it was something new!
We met a girl or boy, looked
into their eyes, hear d them talk,
discovered something in them that
interested us, and then, suddenly,
■without any force, just self-impos
ing, like a flash of lightening we
realized that we were in love! We
had read of love in novels and
short stories, but before it had
been fiction; now it was real—It
had come to us!
Tnc original seed of love stays
with us through life. It is true we
seldom, marry that first love, and
we don't even take time to regret
the -act, because other lives have
been entwined with ours; but the
seed is there and we reverence it
and love it. We may smile at
some of the foolish little things we
did and said as girl and boy lovers,
but back of it ail we respect and
honor that first old love.
We realize how it took hold of
; us and gave U3 more interest in
! life; how it made us wake up and
want to do something in life.
Many a young man was not do
ing well in business. He felt it a
hardship because he had to be shut
‘ up in a tight little box of an office
every day. But when he met that
slip of a girl, that first love of his,
something new stirred within him
and he began to work with a new
zeal, a new ardor. Love trans
formed him. It made him want
money, position, a home—and her!
Perhaps by the time he got what
: she made hint want she was gone;
but there were others, and that
j first love w-ag what had made a
man out of hint. It was that which
j made him noble and fine, and it
! was what put him on his feet and
gave him grit enough to go after
j the best things in life. That first
t love was his foundation and the
corner stone wag love.
In a similiar way many a girl has
hated housework, hated to help her
i mother or to teach school, but
when love carries to her some new
spirit within her, heretofore asleep,
awoke and thrilled her into being
a new girl, a new woman, with
new hopes and better ideals.
Love is what keeps the world
going around. It puts us on our
feet and makes men and women of
! us. It makes U3 want to be fine, to
j be oar best for him and for her.
It usually takes more than one
j love, the first love, to make a mar
■ riage; but although our first love
1 seldom furnishes the central plot
of the life drama it introduces the
leading lady or leading man and it
I is therefore vitally essential.
TACOMA JUDGES ARE HARD
ON FORTUNE TELLERS
Tlie people of Tacoma have ap
parently undertaken to protect their
women folks from fortune tellers,
as the following show’s:
TACOMA. Jan. 3—“She was such
a motherly looking soul, that
though I had stopped telling for
tunes. I took her in,” Mrs. Kather
ine Downs explained to Police Judge
! Evans yesterday, when asked why
she had told the fortune of Police
Matron Buck yesterday, which led
to arrest. Police say women flock
ed by the dotens to Mrs. Downs’
home, and that her appointment
books were filled for days ahead.
Mrs. Downs was given $30 for
one interview, said Matron Buck.
Site was fined two months ago on
i the same charge. The fine yester
! day was $25 and costs. Police arc
determined to protect Taeoman«,
| said Police Captain Read, from
“fortune telling bunk."
