MILK DIET. Not So Good as a Better.

A merchant in 6 thriving interior town writes:
 q can recommend Grape-Nuts food to all, whether well or sick, as a pre- ventative of, or a cure for many ail- ments.
 For about six years I was unable to be in the store much of the time. l was suffering from gastritis and constipation. which confined me to the house part of the time and at last put me to bed and kept me there for all most a year. I ran down in weight from 15O to S5 pounds. trying to live on a milk diet. But I could seldom re- tain that, nor anything else of any account, on my stomach.
 'The doctors finally gave me up: then a friend advised me to change my food and use Grape-Nuts food and POstum Food coffee. I followed his advice and watched results.
 'I commenced to get well at once, and in the first s months I gained about 40 pounds. The gastritis and constipation left me in a very short time and in the years that have fol- lowed 1 have enjoyed the best of health and attend regularly to my business. l eat Grape-Nuts every day. and usually make my entire breakfast off of a few teaspoonfuls of it and a cup or two of Postum Food Coffee" Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek.

out into a defense of the Hepburn rate bill and the position taken by the house, not only in the exception char acter of legislation, but the dignified way in which the bill passed the lower house. In this connection he ridiculed the constitutional members in the sen ate. Increased pay for carriers, a sub ject which has been a fruitful source of impassioned eloquence for a number of years, Mir. Cochran said, also gave the partisans of these men an oppor- tunity to put themselves again on re- cord.
 Progress was made on the postoffice appropriation bill eighteen of the 229 pages having been completed, but few amendments being made to the mea sure and these not changing the amendment of the appropriations to any considerable extent.
 When MT. Cochran arose to address the house at o'clock he was met by crowded galleries and a large repre- sentation of the membership, who gave him a hearty welcome. He reviewed the history of the Esch- Townsend and Hepburn bills in the house. He re- called that the Hepburn bill in the house was considered with unlimited debate and cOntrasted it's position in the senate. The constitutional lawyers, he said. had played battledoore and shuttlecock with it's terms and were insistent for some liberal court review clause in order to make it constitu- tional. With fine satire he said there were as many constitutions as there were constitutional lawyers to inter pret them.
 Some of these lawyers would say We have all the power-some that We have no power to IeGislate along these lines. He said, "A constitutional law yer; how are we able to distinguish him? Not because of the number of

ANTHRACITE STRIKE
 LOOMS UP BIGGER
All Signs Point to an Ultimate Dis
 agreement.

New York, April 12.-At the meet ing of the sub committee of the an thracite workers and operators here today the representatives of the em- ployes offered the mine owners their cnOice of two propositions in their en- deavOr to come to an amicable agree ment, and the employers made an in formal reply in which they intimated that they are not likely to accept either of the wage workers offers. The operators will make an official answer to the miners latest proposi- tion by letter and there will be no fur ther meetings until something devel- ops.
 The meeting today did not bring the cOntending parties closer together. If the operators should decline to enter tain either of the propositions submit ted by the miners today, it is probable convention of miners will be called at which delegates will declare that q strike exists.
 Briefly stated. the offer made by President Mitchell today was d resub- mission of the miners original de- mands with two amendments and in case they are not accepted he pro poses that the whole controversy be placed before the strike commission.
 In one of the amendments to the original demands President Mitchell drops the request for the recognition of the union and provides that the proposed agreement be made between the operators and anthracite mine workers instead of the United Mine Workers of America. The other amendment provides that only em- pIoyes who are willing snail be as sessed a certain sum each month to defray the expense in carrying out the proposed check-off agreement instead of union and union men being called upon to contribute.
 If the operators will not accept the original demands as amended, the miners propose that they (the original demands as amended) and the opera tors first proposition, which provides for d renewal for three years of the award of the anthracite strike com mission be referred for arbitrament to

 Referring again to the rate bill, he
 said that should the court declare the remedy was unconstitutional the court
 would direct congress to the remedy
 In his opinion the bill now under con-
 sideratiOn by the senate was the per
 lection of Legislation.
 Consideration of the appropriation
 bill was then resumed, the following
 amendment being adopted: For in land transportation by star routes in
 cluding temporary service to newly established offices, 100000 provided
 that no part of this appropriation shall be expended for continuance of any star route service the patronage of which shall be served entirely by the extension of the rural delivery service. Nor shall any of said sum be expend- ed for the establishment of a new star route service for a patronage which is already entirely served by rural de- livery service provided that out of this appropriation the postmaster general I is authorized to provide difficult or i emergency mail service in Alaska in cluding the establishment and equip ment of relay stations in such manner
 as he may think advisable. without ad- vertising therefor"

MEDALS FOR BRAVE MEN.
Bill To Suitably Honor Survivors OF
FOrlorn Hope Party.

Washington, Especially An inter-
esting incident occurred in the Sem
ate Committee ON Military Affairs,
when the bill to grant medals to the
survivors and heirs of volunteers of
the Port Hudson (La.) Forlorn Hope
storming party was taken up for con-
sideration. About 1000 men had
been accepted by Major General N.
p. Banks, commanding the Depart
ment of the Gulf during the Civil
War, to storm Port Hudson. He
promised the men medals of honor,
but Congress never has made the ap-
preparation necessary to provide
them.
Senator Buckley called the bill,
and Chairman Warren told his col
leagues the circumstances under
which the promise was made. Mr..
Warren, as a private in the COM
manGl, had been a member of the first
party which prepared the way with
logs and false work for the approach
of the storming party. Very few men
iof the first party escaped being kill
ed, and Mr.. Warren was severely
wounded. He received a congress-
Iional medal for the part he played in
the charge.

Rome (By Cable) The Pope and
the papal secretary. Cardinal Merry
del Val, have refused all requests to
grant an interview for publication
on the Franco-Vatican situation, but
the following statement is authorized
by the Vatican:
1.-THE situation may be summarized
as follows:
'"The concordat, the most solemn
| bilateral contract, has not yet been
| denounced by the French Govern
| ment, which wishes to establish
new legal standing for the church
in France. The government did not
agree with the Holy See on this sub
ject and repeatedly and openly
showed hostility toward the head
of the church. Violence may pre-
vail for a time, but those who are
suffering from this state of oppres-
sion preserve all their rights and all
their claims. The explosion of JOY
among the Masonic and demagogic
societies as result of the persecu-
ton on the part of the government
shows that the war is against the
church and religion.
Notwithstanding the bills passed
and regulations adopted, France at
the present time has no law granting
religious liberty to those who do not
comply with the law providing for
the separation of church and State.
The one good point in the cir
cular issued recently b. the French
minister of public worship, M. Bri-
and, is his confession tnat it is i'm
possible to apply to cultural associa-
Iorr of
which were adopted for the regula-
ton of other kinds of associations
meetings. Therefore, what is needed
is real law providing for real lib
erty, instead of arbitrary ministerial
circulars. The loyalty and good will
of the Holy See under similar cir
cumstances was shown in Brazil
There there was a monarchy and a
concordat, both of which the Repub-
licans suppressed aad proclaimed
their separation from the Holy See,
under certain reserves. Later the
Brazilian Republic came to an under
standing with the Vatican, and a
papal nuncio was accredited to Rio
Janeiro, while a Brazilian minister
was accredited to the Vatican.
THE search of the nunciature at
Paris and the expulsion from France
of Mgr. Montagnini, secretary of the
nunciature, were steps taken with
the object of making the world be-
lieve the false statements circulated
later, and which were said to have
originated in the discovery of docu-
ments seized at the nunciature, such
as the report that some of the French
episcopacy and clergy were ready to
make applications to hold religious
meetings. There is no truth in the
statement The Holy See is not OPP
posd to the making of applications
under the law, but takes exception
to the whole spirit of the circular
issued ty Minister of Public Worship

Chance For 500 school Ma'a,n

Five hundred teachers are needed
in New York's public schools be
cause the course of instruction at the
Normal College has been heightened
to seven years. This was the ex-
PLANTATION of the great number of
vacancies in Manhattan given by
Superintendent Maxwell at the meet
ing of the Board of Education yes
terday. Another reason for the
shortage in teachers, he said, was
the rule of keeping the elementary
grades in the schools free from over
age pupils. This rule necessitated
separate classes for these larger pu
pills, and there weren't enough teach
ers to take charge of them.
