The Food of
Our FOrefathers
The World Progresses With Mighty
Strides, But Intelligent People
Cling to One Old Truth.

Modern progress, of which we hear
SO much nowadays, is not so great per-
haps as we are sometimes made to
think. True enough. it cannot be de-
MED that the world is progressing along
many lines. Wonderful accomplish
ments are recorded every year, almost
every day. We telegraph to trains
moving at high speed. We travel from
New York to Chicago in eighteen hours
though only few years ago, COM
paratively speaking. the journey re-
quired more than that number of days.
We build great railroads under the
across the oceans. All these and many
more marvellous things we are doing.
But in one particularthe most intel
ligent and progressive people of today
cling to the idea of their fOrefatherS.
One of the most nourishing dishes,
and one of the most common perhaps,
a century or so ago, was known as
"F'rumenty." 1t is seldom, If ever,
seen now, but Hutchison, the eminent
English food authority. says it was
very nourishing and wholesome. 1t
was prepared by soaking the kernel
of wheat in water until 1T burst and
then boiling it in milk with sugar and
salt and was of high value in produce
ing bone, blood. muscle and nerve
Malta-vito is an extended and elab-
GRATED process of the old way of max
ing "Frumenty." The whole wheat
grain is thoroughly cleaned, then boil
ed in water, cooked in steam to gela-
tinize the starch. then allowed to stand
| in coolers (where it is carefully watch
ed by an expert) just long enough to
allow the gelantinized starch cells te
break down. Then it IS treated with
/ barley malt instead of sugar. as the
barley malt and the gelatinized starch
make ''maltose" or malt sugar-highly
nutritious and most easily digested
After this it goes to the ovens where
it is baked under such intense heal
that when the crisp brown fakes, deli
cious beyond description, come from
the ovens they contain only one per
cent of moisture.
| Malta-Vita is scientifically prepared
to meet the requirements of the hui
man body, andMalta-Vita is good tc
eat; especially appetizing when served
with fruit or cream. All grocers, 10
cents.

this on the pretext that they were land
agents. The old foreigner had come
here for the purpose of buying some
land.
A couple of months after old man
Tortel was robbed Sshen and Clough
were suspected of the crime. Ashen
was arrested and the old Frenchnan
was brought here to identify him. This
he failed to accomplish, and the state
having but little other evidence, he was
released. From here he went to Spring.
field, and in few days there was newly
discovered evidence that put the officers
on their mettle. But Ashen was gone.
He was traced to st. Louis a couple of
times, three or four times to Kansas
City, and as many times to points in
Texas and Arkansas. Sheriff Roodhouse
has spent $500 trying to get his hands
on him, but as if some omnipotent pow
er had interviewed, Ashen would escape
just at a time when the Bourbon coun-
ty officer thought he had him cinched
/ One time he was located in Kansas City
and the sheriff spent whole week
watching a saloon there, in the hope
that he would show up, but at last he
gave up the watch. The next night
| Ashen spent in Fort Scott right under
the noses of the officers. Three times
the officers went to Springfield, Mo-,
| with the same result. A trip was taken
to Omaha, in fact the officer chased the
! fugitive all over the north and south.
| The same evidence that convicted
Frank Clough will be used in the case
against Ashen. The fugitive is also ac-
cused of bigamy He was married to a
young lady in this city, who only Sc
cured a divorce from him at the last
term of court. He has little boy here.
He is also said to have been married to
/ a woman and lived with her at Spring
field In fact this was alleged in the
petition for divorce filed by his first
/ wife. The sheriff also says that he
heard something about a wife in Texas.
In Venice, where he was almost cap
| tured he married a girl named Wool
ridge and it was with her mother that
he lived when Sheriff Roodhouse located
him a year ago last June. He is also
said to have a boy from this union.
