tizing. nourishing food drink to take the

Boston physicien. Dr. Simpst

A Boston physician, DIR. Simpson
maintains that the use of artificial teeth
is bad for old persons, because it en-
ables them to eat meat. The teeth, he
atfirms, fall out naturally at certain
age, because nature means that at this
particular time of life we should limit
ourselves to vegetable diet. DR.. Simp-
son insists that his ideas. on this point
are by no means as paradoxical as they
may seem to some people.

AS the peroid of lactation advances
the butter fat grows lighter in color,
harder and the fat glohules smaller.
Although it has been studied great
many years by our greatest scientists it
is not definitely known how milk is
formed in the udder.
There is more difference between in.
dividuals of the same breed than there
ls between different breeds of COWS in
the quality of milk they produce.
Butter fat is composed of about ten
separate and distinct fats. 1t is the
finest favored, most easily decomposed
and easiest digested of all fats.
AS the period of lactation advances
the percentage of fat increases, not
only absolutely but also in relative pro-
portion to the other solids of the milk
The feeding of cottonseed meal tends
to harden the fat in milk and conse.
quently, makes harder butter than
would be made If linseed meal were
fed.
Some Philadelphia milkmen are
producing such high grade milk that
they guarantee that it does not con
tain over certain number of bacteria
to the quart.
Billiard balls, backs of hair brushes
and combs, ETC., are made from skim
milk, and large quantities of this by
product are utilized now in the manu-
facture of paper.
According to one investigation
cows milk is about one-seventh richel
at the close of period of lactation thai

Bad Flavor in Milk

The sources of bad flavor in milk
are many, says contributor to Rural
New Yorker. One source may be
strong Favored food like cabbage or
turnips, and after the milk is drawn,
there is danger of contamination with
several sources bringing in bacteria,
which causes various kinds of fermesl
tation and flavor. The'msin factor IN
preventing contamination of milk is
cleanliness, and this cleanliness should
begin with the COW and the stable, and
continue in all the handling of the
milk until it is made into butter, and
consumed. Often little things are
overlooked when one thinks he is very
particular about being clean, and may
cause all the trouble. Recently q
trouble with ropy cream came to tie
attention of the Cornell experiment
station, and on investigation it was
found that the sources of contamina-
tion came from dirty strainer. All
other things about the cream were in
fairly good condition. In the majority
of cases, bad tlavors are not traceable
to the food of the COW, but to some
lack of care in handling the milk.

DEATH OF JUDGE
DE LA MAR
An Old and Honored Resident
Passes AWdy This Morn
ing Funeral 1omor-
row Afternoon
at the Res
idence.

Judge Frank De La Mar, an old resi-
dent Of Mesa county and a prominent
member Of the Mesa county bar died
at the residence OF the family, few
miles northeast Of this city, from
dropsy. at o'clock this morning.
The deceased arose as usual this morn
ing and spoke to his son, who is en-
ployed at Mann's grocery, and shortly
afterward walked TO his chair, into
which he sank, and died without a
struggle. Just as he fell back into his
chair he called to his wife and said that
he was going" which shows that he
had premonition Of death.
Frank De La Mar was born In New
Orleans nearly seventy years ago. His
parents were distinguished French emi-
grants to that country, his father hav-
ing served under the great Napoleon.
When young man he came north and
settled in Iowa where he was married to
his wife, who survives him. OF this
union two children were born, Paul De
La Mar and Mrs. Louise Crilly. the lat
ter now residing in Chicago.
During and just previous to the
great gold excitement he came to Colo.
RADIO in 1859 and has continued to reside
in the state ever since with ever varying
fortunes. At Georgetown he worked
several mines very successfully and was
at one time counted quite q rich man,
as riches went in those days, his wealth
being estimated to exceed 100000. Be-
fore arriving Ia this state he was ad-
mitted to tho bar and has at various
times praoticed law in this state. He
was q man Of commanding presence OF
foe face and Of splendid oratorical abil.
ity In his earlier years. He during his
whole residence in this state Of course
has subsidized his law practice to hunt.
ing the precious metal.
In the past few years he had abandon
ed his law practice and lived q liet and
and contented life upon his farm. He
was a great reader and his fund Of gen
eral information was wide.
In 1893 at the time OF the great silver
agitation he took an active part in the
political campaigns. He was always a
plsssing and ready speaker and those
who heard him ten years ago speak with
delight OF his oratorical power.
1t was a last request that be be buried
upon the home place and the funeral
will take place tomorrow from the late
residence OF the family. The services
will be In charge OF Rev. Father Oonnel-
ly of st. Joseph's church.

Going After Trade.

In no city the size of Grand Junction,
in the travels of the writer 10 the east
did he find store so handsomely looat-
ed or carrying such an extensive and
we'll selected stock as that of the W. F,

opening of the grocery department of
this largo emporium and the addition OF
many classes Of goods the store has
been constantly increasing it's large bus
iness.
Throughout every department there
is finish to its arrangements which
attracts trade. Goods are sold on a
small margin and the store is recognised
a. one Of the leading stores on the west
ern slope of Colorado. At the present
time the store has inaagurated sale in
its china and crockery department
which will give to the intending buyer
an opportunity to purchase goods on
basis which compares moro than favor
ably with the same class Of goods sold
in the east, Notwithstanding the fact
that the high freight tariffs are almost
prohibitory in selling goods upon the
margins sold in the east. Tho ehins
and glassware departments are filed te
overAowing and this reduction sale givei
IN opportunity to buy at way dowr
prices.
1t always pays to investigate the bar

was the initiation of six new candidates
into the mysteries of the order, and the
local officers were assisted in the degree

bers of Oil City lodges. After the initia-
tory work was finished the lodge room
ly transformed it into large dining hall,
as it were and served one of their usually
excellent suppers. This was the tirst OPP
portunity the ladies (most of whom are
members of the Relief Corps) had ever
had to provide spread for the Work.
men, and they certainly did themselves
prond on this occasion. There was large
turnout of the membership from in and
out Of town, nearly all of the men folks
being accompanied by their wives and
daughters, thus forming une of the pleas
ATTEST gatherings of the season. After the
banquet DR.. Morrow, as Master of the
ceremonies, presided over the speech
making, a number of which were nicely
given by the bashful members. Among
the pleasing features of this part of the
evening were number of selections on
the organ beautifully rendered by Mrs.

A Number Of New Features and In
provements Added by the Genial
Landlord Chas. T. Weaver.

Guests and patrons of Hotel Agnew
will appreciate the numerous improve
ments that have been made in the interi-
or of the place within the past two
or three weeks. Throughout the entire
building new paper and paint, all of a
givinc TO the rooms and halls a cheerful,
hoIeliko appearance. and as many of the
rooms arc heated with natural gas, one
finds comforts in that line which are
rarely to be had in hotels of much grand
er preteusions. Hot and cold water with
cozy bath rooms are also provided, and
can be conveniently reached from almost
any sleeping room in the building.
Among the conveniences just added is a
system of electric call bells extending
throughout the spacious building and
connecting every room, as it were, with
the hotel office, where calls will always
be promptly answered. These bells are
of duplex nature and guests may be
aroused at any time during the night or
early morning by leaving orders at the
office, or in case of fire. The latest and
most approved systems of fire escape,
known as the Manges Combination Fire
Escape, has been ordered and will be in
operation before the end of the week.
With rooms an the third floor, often the
pleasantest in the hotel for sleeping or
resting, this system will make them ah-
solutely secure against trouble or acci-
dent in case of fire, even though all in
side avenues of escape should be cut off.
The "Agnew" has had wonderful run
of custom during the past summer, so
great indeed that the proprietor hes
planned to very greatly enlarge its ca
pacity next year, thus giving, besides the
thirty-odd rooms already provided, a
large additional capacity. Many times
during the past season have the accom-
modations been ove'taxed, but the genial
Landlord, Charles F. Weaver, has always
touhd a way to make his guests thor
oughly com Portable. The splendid table
set at this hotel is constantly under the
personal supervision of Mrs. Weaver,
who sees to it that everything in the cul-
mary department is of the choicest order.
1t is scarcely to be wondered at that the
popularity of this fine hotel is extending
throughout all sections OF Western Penn
sylvania.

the Grand jury and then constables were

some of the new duties imposed upon
them by recent acts of the. legislature,

in this respect is qIite rigid and imposes
severe fines on constsbles who neglected
this portion of their duty.
