PROFITABLE EMPLOYMENT

Cannot be obtained unless the seeker
enjoys good health. Employers will
not engage weak, poorly developed or
sickly men. The earning capacity Of
such workers is reduced and their re-
muneration is thereby lessened. If
they do happen to earn WELL medicines
and doctors fees reduce the net gain
that comes from their labor. Again.
health shortens the length of the la
boring mans earning capacity. The
healthier the employe, the greater will
be his compensation.
Every mans health is governed by
the food he eats. Proper food brings
good health, therefore greater
strength, increased earning capacity
and more profitable employment.
II man ceases to eat he will die;
II he eats properly he will live well
and be we'll while he lives. Literally
speaking, every mans earning power
Is measured by the food which he eats.
Shredded Wheat being made of the
whole wheat Is a naturally organized
food. 1t is pleasant to the taste and
easy of assimilation. In fine, 1t full
fills natures laws and therefore is
natural food. 1t produces natural con-
ditions and therefore induces health.

the subject and has published free

HANNAH AND MORDECAI.

SCORED
Miles For His Of
fer.
Roosevelt Called Plan
Spectacular.
Papers In the Case Sent to Con.
greSs.

Washington, March 31.-"Spectacu-
lar and sensational" were the terms
applied by President Roosevelt to the
plan submitted by Lieut.. Gen. Miles,
the first of this month, which he be-
lieves would bring about a speedy
cessation of all hostilities in the Phil
ippnes. Gen. Miles responded hotly to
this charge saying that he could not
see how the plans could be called either
spectacular or sensational" In re-
sponse to the request of the House of
Representatives. all papers and cor
respondence relating to this affair were
sent to the House today.
Gen. Miles plan, briefly outlined, Is
to make a tour Of the Islands, taking
with him 10 men chosen by himself
from Cuba and Porto Rico, who have
the confidence of the natives and who
have been found useful in promoting
friendly feeling between the people Of
the island and the United States gov
ernment, who would explain to the Fill
ipinos the benefit which will accrue
to them from friendly relations with
the United States. He also desired au-
thorization to bring such representa-
tive Filipinos as he should see fit to the
Capitol ut Washington, that they might
see for themselves the advantages of
civilization and realize what the dispo-
siton of our government is toward
them. Gen. Miles says that he has tried
this method with American Indians
with the best of results.
Besides believing ii TO bc sensations
al the President objects to Gen. Miles
plan on the score that it would SUPER
sede, in powers now exercised by
them, some of the best men in the
service and the President also believes
such measures unnecessary as the pro-
gress made by this government in the
pacitication of the islands is much more
rapid than 1--WE have had any right to
anticipate"
