 OF MEAT. hCH cREAM
 WITH
 Grape-Nuts. A Charming Dish,
VALUE OF CREAM
As Compared With Milk.

One of the most valuable items in ones dietary is good, rich cream. The remark is frequently made that cream is too eXpanisve to use freely" Some people think they must have meat every day at 10 ard 9 cents per pound and do not realize that , cents worth of pure cream for breakfast will do more to put on flesh than 25 or 30 cents worth of meat.
 An ideal portion of breakfast is that obtained from, say, four teaspoons of Grape-Nuts and a little pure, thick cream, either cold or hot.
 This is one of the most delicious dishes imaginable, and is served with out cooking or trouble of any kind and cannot be equalled in point of food val ue for the human body.
 Made by the Postum Co.,, at Battle Creek, Mich.
 The. Grape-Nuts, consisting largely of grape-sugar have passed through processes similar to the first act of di- gestion and are therefore most easily digested, and in combination with cream, they render the cream itself easy of digestion.
 Grocers sell Grape-Nuts.

Fire on Whiting Street Yesterday
 Morning.
 The fire on Whiting street, in the rear of the Aldrich house early yester- day morning, caused a loss of about $1 900. The fire was In building own ed by Abner Hendee, and was used as a store house for hay and straw About fifty tons of hay and straw, bailed, was stored there, and this is rendered prac- tically useless. The alarm for the blaze was rung about 3 o'clock from box 124. The fire was difficult to reach, and it was not until every bale had been turned over and drenched that the fremen ceased work. A detail of them remained at the scene until the middle of the forenoon ysterday All the horses were removed from the stable of George G. Nesbit, at the rear of the Hendee building, 1t being feared that the stables might catch fire They escaped, however. It is thought that the fire originated from lighted match having been thrown in a bale of hay when it was being stored in the build ing the day before and that the fire thus started smoldered until it broke out yesterday morning.

A very fine programme was rendered
 by the St. Ambrose society at it's third
 musicale on Wednesday evening of last
 week, in Prof Fowlers studio, which is
 their headquarters for this season. This
 club of ladies includes many of the best
 pianists of the city, and is doing much

After the last annual meeting the
 name was changed to the St. Ambrose society, as representing better the scope of it's work, and constitution and by laws were adopted. The first meeting
 this evening was Schurmann pro- gramme, on which both the Papillons and the Fasching Schwartz appeared, also two groups of Schurmann's song | by pr. Griggs and the First symphony l The development of the sonata formed 1 the subject of the second musicale and examples were given from Philip, Elm, | Mozart, Haydn and Schubert, ending
 with Schurmann's magnificent sonata l in c moll.
 Wednesday evening of this week was | devoted to Brahms. A four-hard ar-
 engagement of the G moll quartet with 1 Gypsy rondo movement, and chorus l from the German requiem arranged for | two pianos were given. Two solo num- bers, ballade and intermezzo from Op. | 79 and 119 were played and the pro- i gramme closed with the Laiteslieder
 walzes. This exquisite composition is written for plano duet with quartet of mixed voices.

PRINCETONIANs EDITORIAL.

The editorial of the Princetonian in speaking of the Yale Princeton debate says:
 ''Princeton's defeat last night at the hands of Yale in the first of the inter- collegiate debates this year is regretted.
 Its results are more wide-reaching than may at first be imagined and if victory does not return to Nassau in the contest with Harvard, Princeton prestige in this branch of intercollegiate competition will be lost.
 Heretofore Princeton has held her own against Yale, and owing to the disproportion numerically between the two colleges considerate public has awarded the first place to Princeton; but last years defeat has materially changed this phase of the question and Princeton is again behind in the race.
 There Is one way only by which the stigma of the present defeat may par tially be removed and that is by defeat ing Harvard, who is popularly consider ed the champion in argumentative con- tests"

 TO HELP PAY OFF DEBTS OF M. E.
 CHURCH.
 The Twentieth Century club was or ganized Thursday night in the lecture room of the First Methodist church, where met the official boards of all the Methodist churches of the city. This or ganization was inspired by H. H. Bene- dict, of Benedict, Pardee & Co.,, who presented to the meeting a plan to liuuidate the debt of all the Methodist churches of this city. It will be remem- bered that some time ago the bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church met and suggested that to mark the advent of the twentieth century a great contri- button for church support and missions should be made by the people through out the land. MT. Benedict thought this vicinity, and that no more appro- this vicinity, an dthat no more appro- priate name could be selected than '"The Twentieth Century Club" His suggestion was unanimously adopted.
 Tn the discussion that followed it was reported that there is no debt on Trini- ty church, the First Methodist, East Pearl street church or the Westville church. In other instances there is debt more or less a heavy burden on the members, and therefore the sug- gestion that brothers in the faith or ganize and extend aid to those who need it. MT Benedict was elected pres ident. John T. Manson first vice presi- dent. Rev. MT. Bergwin of Summerfield church secretary, and N. A. Fullerton treasurer.
