PARIS. Dec. News received here from
a Boer agent, who has Just returned from

able to continue the war five years. and
ultimately drive the British out of the
Cape.

On September 2S General Botha reck-

the quietude which is reigning in Pre-

detectives, and that the Beers sooner or
later would rebel there.
Several small English patrols have been
attacked lately close to Pretoria. and a
convoy was burned only half an hours

STATUS OF THE PHILIPPINES.
lcontinued From First rage. }

Rico was taken by the United States. this
was not so rs to the Philippines. because
OF the armed resistance of the native in
habitants to a greater or less extent. On
this latter point the court says:
we must decline to assume that the
Government wishes lhus to disparage the
title of the United States. or to place
itself in the position OF waging war of
conquest. .
I'VE do not understand that it is
claimed that in carrying on the pending
hostilities the Government is seeking to
subjugate the people of a foreign coun-
try but, on the contrary. that it Is pre-
serving order and suppressing insurrec-
tion in territory of the United States. 1t
follows that the possession of the United
States is an adequate possession under
legal title. and this cannot be asserted
for one purpose and denied for another.
We dismiss the suggested distinction as
untenable,"
The DooIey Case.
A reaGirmation OF the validity OF the
Foraker act for the government OF Porto
Rico was made by the court in the case
OF Henry W. DOOlcy Ell al Ns. tue tutted
| States Dooley, Smith & Co. sued to re-
cover duties paid on a shipment OF mer-
chandise from New York to San Juan,
Porto Rico. and the court held that the
| duties on goods imported into Porto Rico
from the United States after the passage
of the Foraker tariff act was for the
benefit of Porto Rico. and therefore prop
erly collected.
IF the duties levied by the Foraker
act. said Justice Brown. had been Cove
cred into the United States Treasury the
tax on goods going into Porto Rico from
the United States could properly be term
ed a tax on exports. As ths duties thHs col
lected went for the benefit OF the iasaisf
treasury and were collected only until tbs
Territory was fully organized, tbs Psf-
aiter act was legislation exclusively t9f
Porto Rico, and did not c0ntFsysas tss
provisions OF the Constitution that dsties
should be uniform throughout the rsitea
States
Though concurring in the decision
reached. Justice White. in view o: the
Importance Of the subject, gave his opin-
ion at some length on some the minor
points upon which he did not concur.

SEATS FOR SALESWoMEN.
Central Labor Union Wants the
statute Enforced.


Some time ago Congress passed law
requiring all employers in the District to
furnish saleswomen with suitable seats
behind counters. in order that they might
rest while not actually enga ged in waiting
upon customers. The law has never been
enforced. Nevertheless many employers
have complied with the direction.
The matter was taken up last night at
meeting of the Central Labor Union.
committee of three was appointed to
work in connection with Retail Clerks
Union No 262. with view of having the
statute enforced. The committee con-
sists of Messrs. H. T. LeClare, J. H. Bah
cock. and Joseph II. Caldwell.
After a discussion OF the subject a res
olution was adopted pledging the whole
influence of the Central Labor Union for
the accomplishment of this purpose.
i protest was made against concern
which It i said is violating the eight
hcur law. The firm referred TO. it was
reported, has contract for packing seeds
fer the Government. Besides violating
The eight-hour law. it is claimed that
child labor is also used.
Delegates from the United Brotherhood
of Leather Workers in Horse Goods Union
were admitted and obligated. The union
is known as local No. 60 and has mem-

FOOD FACTS.
How TO Properly Feed the Body

Physicians nowadays realize how neces-
sary it is that the food contain the right
elements that the body requires to re-
build itself. and replace the loss that oc-
ours each day from activity and energy.
II one lifts an arm, that means the ex-
penditure OF a small amount OF energy,
and the burning up, so TO speak, OF GER
tain deposits from the food This means
a certain loss, and this loss must be made
up each day from food II the food does
not contain the things required. nature
hoists a flag Of distress; aches ais, sick
ness OF some sort sets in, meaning that
there is something lacking in the food.
The reason physicians so generally adj
wise the usr of Grape Nuts Breakfast
Food is that they know from what it is
made and what it contains The medical
journals in various parts Of the world
have given the analysis. The famous
London Lancet" went so far as to make
a very careful analysis by It's own chem
ist. Its remarks are worth repeating:
The preparatory process undoubtedly
converts the food constituents into a
much more digestible condition than in
the raw cereals. This is evident from the
remarkable solubility OF the preparation.
no less than one-half OF II being soluble
in water The soluble portion contains
chiefly deXirin and no starch. According
to our analysis the following Is the pro-

vides tax of one-fourth of / Fer cent
per pound on oleomargarine when not col

The features worthy OF note In this an
alysis are the excellent proportion of pro-
.cids and mineral matter aad soluble
carbohydrates.
The mineral matter Is rich phosphorie
acid Our analysis shows that it is a nu-
,'itiye OF high order since IL contains the
constituents OF "A complete food In the
right proportions, and in an easily assimi-
liable state
Notice the carbohydrate total is about
rs per cent These produce energy and
warmth. The phosphoric acid in the min
eral matter comes. as do all OF the other
ingredients. from the field grain, not one
particle being introduced as a drug.
Physicians know that the soft matter in
the brain and nerve centres throughout
the body are made from the elements of
albumen acted upon by phosphate Of pot
ash. Albumen is a very common article
in almost every food, but phosphate OF
potash does not exist in all foods, nor is
It found in easily digestible form always.
However. In Grape Nuts these elements
exist. and are presented TO the body in an
easily digestible form, and explain the
reason why users feel the new spring OF

for time. There is "a reason for IL. The
doctors know IL; therefore they prescribe
