The popular belief that the oyster is
a most nutritious article of diet does
not rest upon any scientific basis. The
oyster as food could not satisfy the
demands of the human body. While
the oyster (when not stewed) is very

But yesterday she sat up in her chat,

DID TRADING STAMPS
O[BAUCB DUB YOUTH

s. H. Derby had the privilege yester-
day of being the sole witness for the
prosecution and the attorney for the
the Gunst- Ealsin Cigar Company. This
was a case invited by the company as
a test in the matter of the constitu-
tionality of the Territorial statute for
bidding the use of trading stamps or
coupons redeemable in goods other
than those actually sold The circum-
stances of the case gave 1t a funny
side, the witness in the box having the
privilege of Directing to the questions
asked him and of arguing with his in
terrogator as to the propriety of the
examination he was subjected to. AS
stated, Mr.. Derby appeared for the
Defense Deputy Attorney General
Prosser being present for the prosecu
ton
There was no attempt on the part of
Mr.. Derby or II. p. Eakin to deny the
issuing of coupons calling for different
advertised articles with each sale. The
matter was only brought into the Dis
trict Court in order to get the matter
before the Supreme Court for a con-
test OH tHe question VI cOIlStltutlOH-
ality, the defense having their appeal
prepared before coming before Judge
Whitney.
There was half-concealed smile on
the face of the Judge as he listened to
the argument of Mr.. Prosser that the
defendant should be given the maxi
mum penalty of $500 fine for holding
out inducements in the shape of pre-
miums to bring misguided youths into
his store to be debauched by cigars
and cigarettes. Instead OF imposing
the maximum fine, however, Judge
named the minimum, 500 and
costs
Then the notice of appeal was given
and the matter passed up to the higher
court.
During the morning session the case
against w. C. Peacock & Co.. that of
selling adulterated liquors, was up
again, w. C, Peacock as president of
