How to keep young is a question that
has worried no end Of people into gray
hairs. Now along comes a German
professor with the cheerful dictum;
1--WE are only as old as our heart and
arteries. The hygiene Of the heart is
the art OF remaining young" This au-
thority adds that abnormal drafts upon
the hearts activity must be avoided.
Care and moderation should be OBJ
served in eating, drinking and bodily
exercise.

The largest items In point OF value
in the vegetable imports Of the United

preserved vegetables. The preserved
stun was OF the fancy brands not pro

manded by the market. But 1t would
seem that this country ought to raise
potatoes enough for home consump-
ton and Of a quality equal to the best

Missourians Complain
Of Rate Discrimination

Complaint against the alleged discrim-
fDation on The part OF railroads in the
ma ter Of freight rates to grain dealers
IN Missouri was made to the President
this morning by a delegation from the
ST. Louis Merchants Exchange, who
called at the White House this morning
accompanied by Representative Bar
tho1dt.
The members of the delegation were
w. p. Kennett, chairman; T. r. Bal
lard. E. S. Tonplkins, c. S. Powell, and
w. II. Danforth. The exchange recently
adopted resolutions indorsing the atti-
tude of the President.
The Missourians congratulated Mr..
Roosevelt on the stand he has taken
and assured him their hearty support.
After talking with the President the del
egation saw Secretary Taft, who. as
Judge in Cincinnati, tried several cases
in which railway rates were involved.
Under existing conditions, say the
Mfssourians, grain can be shipped East
from Omaha, cheaper than it can from
st. Louis. They also state that the rf,u-
roads are driving out the small deale s
by a system allowances to the largs
dealers on their elevators. forcing the
small men to deal through the larger
ones, thereby creating a monopoly.

Colonel Stone said ne desired to speak
