WILL FIGHT THE BILL
REVOLT AGAINST RIVERS AND
 HARBORS MEASURE
Members of the North Carolina Dele gation Feel That Their State
 Has Been Discriminated
 Against by Committee.

Washington. March 7.-(Special.)-The rivers and harbors bill recently announc- ed from the House Committee and which has been a source of infinite joy to those Congressmen whose project received re- cognition may not have the easy passage through Congress that it's advocates have hoped for.
 The North Carolina delegation Is organizing a revolt against it and will attempt to draw to their aid all the members who were disappointed in appro- priations. There will be, 1t is said. a desperate effort to defeat it when 1t comes up to the House for a vote. The bill is hardly made up so that the ap- propriations touch enough members to at- tach the majority support to it.
 1t is believed that 1t will finally pass. The manner in which the money was distributed by the House Rivers and Harbors Committee has aroused the ire of the North Carolina delegation and be- cause of alleged discrimination against the Old North State they are organizing the revolt. Milt Saul

SEEKS AID OF CONGRESS.
State of Minnesota Wants Judicial
 Acts Amended.

Minneapolis. Minn., March 7.-Attorney General Douglas has appealed to Con- gress in the Northern Securities case. With the backing of the Minnesota Leg islature and of the Minnesota delegation in both branches at Washington. he hopes for an amendment to the judicial acts which will change the anamalous position in which Minnesota Is now placed.
 The decision in the Northern Securities case shuts out the State completely from redress fin the Federal Courts. The Court lays down the rule that a State cannot sue citizen of another State where cit- izens of the plaintiff State are necessary parties. It Is said that a bill will be in- troduced in both branches of Congress amending the judiciary act as the Attor- ney General suggests.

A widespread interest has been ere ated among good flyers. as to the com position of Grape-Nuts. the popular food. It has long been known to physicians. chemists and food experts, that the starchy portion of entire wheat flour and barley is transformed into true and very choice sugar by the act of intes- tinal digestion in the human body. This sugar is identical with, and is known as grape sugar. and it is in condition for immediate transformation into blood and the necessary structure from which the delicate nerve centers are built up.
 A food expert of the Postum Cereal Co.,, Ltd, Battle Creek. Mich, followed a line of experiments until he produced the food called Grape-Nuts, of which grape sugar forms the principal part. and 1t is produced by following out Ma ture's processes. in mechanical way. That is heat, moisture and time are the methods employed and directed by seien- tific facts gained in research.
 Grape-Nuts are probably entitled to the claim to be the most perfectly adapt ed food for human needs now extant. Certain it is that the users delight in the flavor and the perfect action of in- testinal digestion during the use of Grape Nuts is satisfying. and the added strength of body confirms the facts.
