FOOD THAT CARRIES ONE ALONG

IT'S nice to know Of food that not only tastes de-
lfcious but that puts the snap and go into and
supplies staying power for the day.
woman says: 81 have taken enough medicine
in my time TO furnish a drug store, but in later
and wiser years have taken none, but have de-
pended for the health now enjoy on suitable and
sustaining feed. Of which keep on hand a tested
variety, plain but nourishing.
"0f these my main dependence Is Grape Nuts
especially II have before me a day Of unusual
effort either mental physical In this l
fortify myself the first thing In the morning with
about teaspoonfuls Of Grape-Nuts moistensd with
cream and not much else for breakfast, and the
amount Of work ! then carry through
cessfuliy without fatigue or exhaustion is Won
der to those about me and even 10 myself.
Grape Nuts food is certainly a wonderful
strengthener and Is not stfmulsnt, for there 10
reaction afterwards. but II is sustaining and
strengthening, / have proved by long expert
ence.'' Name given by Postum Co., Battle Greek.
Mich.
There's reason four teaspoonfuls Of Grape Nuts
and cream will add strength and carry
further than plateful Of heavy food that 10
nearly all waste. Grape-Nuts food IL condensed
predigested and delicious. 1t contains the parts
of the wheat and barley grains that supply the re-
building parts for brain and nerve eenters.

MONEY FOR HOSPITAL
MUST BE EXPENDED BY DISTRICT
DIsBURsING OFFICER.
Controllers Decision Regarding the
New Building for the Homeo-
pathic Hospital.

The controller of the treasury has rem
dered decision that the $50 600 appropria-
ton made by the last Congress for the aid
of the National Homeopathic Hospital in
the construction and completion of the
building cannot be advanced to the treas
urer of the hospital, but should be- dis
bursed and accounted for by the distursing
officer Of the District on vouchers from the
hospital authorities. The Commissioners,
In their communication to the controller,
refer to the fact that in the last three years
the appropriation for the care and treat
ment Of INDECENT patients at the hospital is
under a contract with the hospital and
paid on suitable vouchers. The Commits
I'D Can the proper hospital authorities
execute contract. or contracts, for the
erection of the building contemplated In
volving an expenditure of the amount ap-
prOpriated, either with or without the APP
prevail of the Commissioners of the District
of Columbia?
"(2) May the appropriation be disbursed
by the treasurer of the hospital, the money
being advanced to him for this purpose
and his accounts being audited by the
proper auditor of the Treasury Depart
ment?'
Referring to the separate appropriations
of $500 for INDECENT patients and to the
$4,000 for aid in the construction of the
hospital, the controller says:
1T is clear that neither Of these appro-
priations is specifically made to the Ma
which, understand, is private charitable
association, not a part of the government
Of the District of Columbia. / also think
1t is clear that appropriations made to pro-
vide for expenses of the government of the
District, including authorized expenses for
charitable purposes, can properly be dis
bursed only under the direction Of the Com
missioners of the District, and that where
appropriate instrumentalities for this pur-
pose have been provided for by law such
provision must be regarded as exclusive of
other means
Il think the hospital authorities were
justified in assuming Gas they have done,
and made a contract involving liability
In excess of $4,000, the excess to be paid
by them that they had the right to deter
mine the character of the building and
make the contract for the same, and unless
said building fails to conform substan-
TALLY to the objects and purposes for which
the aid is extended the Commissioners are
authorized to pay the proper bills for the
cost, up to the limit of $4,000, upon vouch-
ers properly approved by the hospital au-
tlrorities. .
II do not think that the money can be
advanced to the treasurer of the hospital,
but it should be discussed and accounted
for by the disbursing officer of the District
on vouchers as above Indicated

PASS A PRIMARY ELECTION LAW.
One of the first duties that should
claim the attention of the Hartford
delegation at Annapolis this winter
is the passage Of a primary election
law, which has been demanded by
leading men in both parties for a
number of years. Heretofore the ex-
pense has been regarded as serious
obstacle, but the time NOW seems to
be ripe for the passage of such an act
regardless ofmonetery consideration.
OF course the taxpayers will desire
to see the measure on as economical
basis as is consistent with the ends
necessary to be attained. 1t is no
more than fair that both parties
should contribute a considerable
amount of money that will be neces-
sarv to conduct the machinery leav-
ing the balance for the taxpayers to
make good.
For a number of years past a con-
dition of affairs has grown up con-
corning our primary elections which
is deplorable and the free use of
money like last summer must be
checked or it will soon be contest of
not men and principles, but ofdollars.
1t is proposed to have the primaries
of both parties OIL the same day and
wherever practicable in the same
room. Each has an independent set
of election Judges and clerks named
by the executive committees of the
different parties. In this way no
person can participate in but one set
of primaries, and the fragrant abuse
of allowing republicans to vote i'll
democratic primaries will be largely
remeded. The voting will be done
from the registration books. Unless
the name is on there or where it can
be proven that the party will be Ell
titled to vote at the succeeding cleo
ton, he will not he allowed topatici-
pate. 1t is claimed that i'll some
sections of the county canning house
hands voted not only in one precinct,
but several and such acts as these
will render a primary a perfect farce,
