If you want TO increase your strength
you must add 90 and not take from the
physical. In other words, the food that
you eat must be digested, assimilated

PLEADS FOR SEAMSTRESSES.
President Roosevelt Asks That Con-
tract for Making Soldiers Clothes
BE Not Let TO Lowest Bidder.

Washington. Nov. 17.-Quartermas-
ter General Humphrey has reported to
the secretary of war that in his judg-
ment the revised statutes require the
allotment of the contract for making
up of soldiers clothing at the Schuyl-
Kill arsenal, Philadelphia, to private
contractors who are the lowest bid
ders. The president and the secretary
Of war are DESTROYS of retaining the
work in the hands of women, mainly
widows and orphans of soldiers, who
have made this clothing since the civil
war.
The report of Gen. Humphrey
showed that about 100000 garments of
various kinds are now being made by
seamstresses at Philadelphia, also that
the quartermaster's department had
advertised for bids and received re-
plies before any controversy had
arisen over the subject. The bids
showed that the trousers could be
made by the manufacturers for BIZ
cents, while costing rs cents when
made by the seamstresses, making a
saving on the order of $4,000 to the
government.

element in our composite stock the Ger

element In our composite stock the Ger
man is.
| Each nation has its allotted tasks to
do; each nation has its peculiar difficult
| ties to encounter; and as the peoples of
| the world tend to become more closely
| knit together alike for good and for evil.
| 1t becomes ever more important to all
/ that each should prosper; for the pros
perity Of one Is normally not sign of
menace, but sign Of hope for the rest.
Here on this continent where 1t Is abso-
lutely essential that the different peoples
coming to our shores should not remain
separate, but should fuse into one, our
unceasing effort Is to strive to keep and
profit by the good that each race brings
to our shores, and at the same time to
do away with all racial and religious ami
mosities among the various stocks. In
both efforts we have met with an aston
ishing measure of success. As the years
go by 1t becomes not harder, but easier
to live In peace and good will among our
selves; and I firmly believe that 1t will
also become not harder, but easier, to
dwell In peace and friendship with the
other nations of the earth.
As such is the case 1t is natural that
we should have a peculiar feeling of
neATHeSS 10 edcH VI many peoples hCTosS
the water. We most earnestly wish not
only to keep unbroken our friendship for
each, but so far as we can without CIV
ing offense by an appearance of med 4
ding, to seek to bring about better un-
derstandlng and a broader spirit of fair
dealing and federation among all nations.
In closing let me thank you and through
you the German emperor and the Ger
man people for this statue, which I ac-
cept In the name of the American peo- |
Pile; people claiming blood kinship with |
your own: pepole owing much to Ger |

future. 1 most earnestly pray that in the
coming years these two great nations |
shall move on toward their several desti-
MES knit together by ties of the heartiest
and good will.

FORGET PARTISAN STRIFE.


Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 17.-Politi.
cal aspirations and Affiliations were
forgotten last night when several hun.
| dred representative men of both repub-
lican and democratic parties assembled
at the Commercial club to congratu-
late Senator Charles w. Fairbanks,
vice president-elect. John w. Kern,
democratic nominee for governor, sat
side by side with Senator Albert J.
Beverage and Senator Fairbanks.
John w. Kern acted as chairman of
the meeting. In his Introductory ad-
dress Mr.. Kern paid high tribute to
the vice president-elect, saying that in
the whole campaign he heard no bitter
word fall from his lips and that he
yielded the same liberty to his oppo-
nents as he himself claimed under the
American flag. 1--WE are all democrats
and good ones during the campaign"
he said, "but when the campaign is
over we add something to democracy
by remaining American citizens and we
are ready and willing to place our faith
in the man whom the people have Sc
lected."
Senator Fairbanks was touched by
the welcome given him. "All the
words Of the human tongue" he said,
ARE too poor to express my apprecia-
ton Of this kind and generous greet
ing" Senator Fairbanks remarked on
the lack Of bitterness in the past cam
paign which he believed was less than
ever before. I'm all my political ex-
perience," he said, mo word has es-
capped my lips that would not utter to
my dearest friend. Mr.. Kern has won
q glorious victory, although he was not |
elected governor, in winning the hearts
Of all the people of Indiana by his high |
and manly conduct during the cam !
paign."
