They were not given proper food and
he exhibited two cans of food which
he received. which he said was unfit to

Gov Taft, but did like Gen. Chaffee.
After Mr.. Boardman had concluded
his testimony, Senator Dietrich of that
committee, sent the two samples Of
food which Mr.. Boardman had left in
the committee room and which he had
declared he would not eat under any
circumstances, to the Senate restau-
rant, requesting that they be prepared
for the table. The canned salmon he
had made into salmoon salad and the
prepared food was used in the prepar-
alton of a soup. Boardman was invited
to luncheon with Senator Dietrich,
Senator Beveridge being a second
guest. The salmon salad and the soup
made of the compound supplied to the
army were the two principal articles
on the bill of fare, and both appeared
in very tempting form when set upon
the table. The senators declare the
food was very palatable and they agree
that Boardman's objections to the
ration appeared to have vanished when
the food was served to him to-day.

Washington, Dec. 5.--The canal con-

payment is increased from $7,O00,000 to

The prospect. of securing the concession

gress. This has been one Of the most
serious bitches in the negotiations. CO.

= Bay leaves were once considered one of
the essential stores of the larder; their
flavor Is delicate and delicious. The herbs
used for f1avoring soups should be tied
up in a little bag, and a bay leaf not for
gotten. one may also be boiled with fish
or meat. When custards or any sort of
milk buildings are being made, a bay leaf
scalded in the milk will inapart very
delicate and agreeable flavor. Tarragon
leaves give most novel and acceptable

Leftover boiled cau1if1uwer makes an

and dress with mayonnaise. 49,
When boiling fish let it come gently to a
bubble after putting 1gin the boiling
water, then allowsit to cook just below the
boiling point. II 1t were boiled at the

is allow ten minutes. to each pound, when
it has once come to the boil. .

Fretful
Children

This getting up every night with
the baby, or some OF the other
children. is all wrong.
Not that the childaen are to
blame. If it's the baby probably
his food is all wrong. Vinol will
help his, mother stand the strain of
nursing. I have often seen whole
families of older children keep the
parents awake O. nights. First
one, then the other is ailing.
These children seem we'll enough
at times; but they are white, hol-
low-eyed, often listless, with irreg-
ular appetites, peevish and fretful,
wakeful at night, and continually
taking cold.
The use of Vinol, in conjunc-
ton with Vinlax to regulate the
bowels, will benefit these children
almost in day. ~ 49,.
\ We know this because the ,ex-
amples are so numerous right
around home. IT,. r. :
There is nothing in Vinol that
can hurt them. 1t is pleasant to
take, and the amount necessary to
give tho children a start costs but
little. Besides if it doesn't do the
work, we will give you the money
back.
There is nothing so good for
weak and tired mothers and ailing
children as Vinol. 1t gives them
start, and helps them keep it,
and it's splendid for old people.
