Too much meat is absolutely hurt

ships get scurvy when their supply of
vegetable food is exhausted. The lii
gestive organs of the human body de-
mand vegetable food, and Ii we don
eat enough vegetables we pay for ii
dearly.
Nature gave us wheat, and in every
kernel of wheat nature has distrib-
uted iron. starch. phosphorus, lime
sugar. salt and other elements neces-
sary to make bone. blood and muscle.
EGG-O-SEE is wheat scientifically
prepared Cooked, and made into
crisp flakes, EGG-O-SEE goes into the
stomach ready for the digestive or
gans to convert it into life-giving sub
stances with but little effort.
EGG-0-SEE eaters are a clean-eyed
strong and happy lot. The proof Of a
pudding and the proof of EGGO-SEE
is in the eating EGG-O-SEE besides

THE ELECTION.

1t has been a long time since
the republicans have won such
signal victory in this county as
was won last Tuesday. All of
the republican county ticket is
elected except John Wiltse. Mr..
Wiltse made a gallant fight
against great odds and was en-
titled to better treatment at the
hands of his party. However,
the manly way in which he takes
his defeat, as we'll as the high
order of his campaign, has made
him stronger in defeat than he
would have been had he been
elected.
In the state George Sheldon is
elected by about $4,000 majority;
the legislature will be republican
OH Joint ballot, thus insuring the
election of Norris Brown senator
to succeed Millard. All of the
republican congressman ar c
elected in the state excepting
Kennedy who was beaten by
Hit tchcock, of the World Herald.
The entire country seems to
have gone republican with the
possible exception of Kansas.
The fight between Hoch and
Harris in the latter state is very
close and may require the official
county to determine it. Hughes
is elected governor of New York
over Hearst by about 10000,
while Cummins is elected gov
ernor of Iowa for a third term by
greatly reduced majority. The
next congress is safely republican
though the present majority is
cut down some.
The fight on Pollard reduced
his majority some though he will
receive in the neighborhood OF
1000.
1t is now up to the party to
keep its pledges. The next leg
