1t is sixty years ago since the CO.
operative movement was inaugurated
in England by the Rochdale Equitable
Pioneers, little band of weavers
(only twenty-eight in number), most
of whom were Chartists, and practi-
cally all Of whom were also Socialists
of the Owen school. Now that the CO.
operative movement has grown to
such dimensions that it can claim to
possess the largest trading concern
in the world, it is interesting to re-
call the fact that the Rochdale Pion-
GERS commenced business on capital
of G2S, collected at the outset by
weekly contributions of 3D., which
were afterward increased to Sd. The
Rochdale Society has now over 10000
members, and its trading profit last
year was $4,000.

what effect his Sermons had upon the
lowly members of the congregation.
One Sunday, while leaving st. Peters
church, where he had been stationed
many years, he met a parishioner who,
touching his hat to the reverend gen.
tleman, said:
THAT was a beautiful sermon you
preached to-day, father. 1t did me a

FOOD FACTS
What an M. o. Learned.


A prominent physician of Rome,
Georgia, went through a food expert
eBce which he makes public:
1T was my own experience that
first led me to advocate Grape-Nuts
food and also know from having pre-
scribed 1t to convalescents and other
weak patients that the food is a won
derful rebuilder and restorer of nerve
and brain, tissue, as well as muscle.
1t improves the digestion and sick
patients always gain just as l did in
strength and weight very rapidly.
Il was in such a low state that had
to give up my work entirely and go to
the mountains of this state, but two
months there did not improve me; in
fact was not quite as well as when l
left home. My food absolutely re-
fused to sustain me and it became
plain that must change, then l began
to use Grape-Nuts food and In two
weeks could walk a mile without the
least fatigue and in FIVE weeks re-
turned to my home and practice, TAX
in up hard work again. Since that
time l have felt as well and strong as
! ever did in my life.

all sufferers I consider it a duty to
make these facts public" Name Civ

FIVE ACRES OF SEATS
A Thousand Reporters, Operators And
Messengers Busy.
WHO KEPT THE WORLD INFORMED.
Chairman Payne of Nationa, Committee
Presided During Organization and
Eiihu Root was Chosen Chairman of
Convention.


Chicago, June 23.-The republican
national convention, the thirteenth in
the party's history, met in the Coliseum.
1t has been u place for roller skating,
balls and the circus, yet old convention
hands thought it the best proportioned
and arranged convention hall in the
United States. The outside walls are
of stone, with castellated turrets, so
the first impression was that of city
armory. Inside the wide concave of
steel, if black, would make the place
look like a railway station, but as they
are white, relieved by stands of flags,
the effect was pleasing. The first men
tai effort after looking at the immen-
sity of seats, parterre rising on
parterre was to estimate the total L.
turned out to be about $3.50 numbered
places including the bank of $50 rising
behind the chairman
Weather predictions were disturbing
There was suggestion of rain in the
air and the sun had struggle all the
morning with clouds banked up over
the lake. Fresh breezes from the
northwest cooled the temperature but
indoors, out of reach of the breeze, the
day was hot.
Five acres of seats under the arches
of the Coliseum began to fill.
Under the rostrum and stretching
the whole length of the basement was
one of the most curious sights of the
convention-the paraphernalia and the
workers who communicated to the
millions what the thousands saw.
Into this space was let hundreds of
wires, more than 900, that connected
the hall with the principal newspapers
of the country and with agencies that
transmit news over seas.
More than one hundred tele-
phones were working and upward of
400 telegraph instruments thou
sand reporters, operators and messen-
gers manned this Intelligence machine.
Chairman Payne, of the national
committee, after calling the convcn-
ton to order. and making a speech.
announced the selection by the COM
mittee of Elihu Root of New York, as
temporary chairman, which the con-
vention, by motion approved. Mr..
Root then delivered the opening
speech.
