result was that she played for six

showered with lavish praise by the
press and public and as one dis

In the June, 1904. edition of "The

The Number of "None."

The Number of None"

Much more harmful is the Difference mis-
takenly paid to 1t. From this results.
says n writer In Harper's Magazine, not
unfreGuently pedantic and even pain
full mode of expression in opposition to
the best usage. and that, too, without the
slightest counterbalancing advantage.
A remarkable illustration of this can be
seen in the case of none as the subject
of plural verb. When and where the
outbreak of hostility to this usage first
manifested itself 1t may not be easy TO
determine. Apparently it was not until
of late that anyone ever thought
seriously of questioning the pro-
priety of the construction. But
the fact seems suddenly to have
dawned upon the mind of come
student of speech that none was con-
traction of no one. The processes OF
logic We're at once set in motion. NO
one is exclusively confined in its con-
struction to the singular; it cannot be
used with n verb in the plural. In that
all would agree. The conclusion was
at once drawn that the word derived
from 1t must be.eXactly in the same situ-
alton. 1t was therefore highly improper
to use none as the subject of plural
verb. 1t is needless to say to any per-
son who has made himself familiar with
the best usage, either written or spoken,
that none has been and is employed in
differently as a singular and plural;
If anything, more frequently in the lat
ter number than in the former. The
study of our best writers settles that
point decisively. 1t is in the power of
anyone to decide the question for him
self: and it will make little difference
what is the WORK he takes up. At
Miletus, Paul tells his followers of the
bonds and aflictions which awaits him
at Jerusalem. But none of these things
move me-" he continues, according to
the authorized version which adopts
here the translation of the passage rs
found in some of the earlier sixteenth
century versions None deny there is
a God" said Bacon in his essay on
Atheism, but those for whom it max
eth that there were no God" None
are for me-" Shakespeare puts in the
mouth of Richard III, that look into
me with considerate eyes" None are

page with examples of the use of none

SLUGGER SENTENCED.
Recorder ooH Denounces Strike Vio-
lence.

Recorder CoH Denounces Strike Vio-
New York-Recorder Gof, in the
Court of General Sessions, sentenced
Frank Hawkins to the penitentiary for
one year Thursday, and gave strikers
in general some advice. Hawkins. who
is an iron worker, and was at one time
associated with Sam" Parks, was con
victed of nssaulting Samuel Anderson.
In passing sentence Recorder Gof
said:
"As a judge, deem IL important to
say to You that the evidence in this
case clearly points to conspiracy of
which YOU were one of the conspira-
tors to take this man Anderson, and to
assault him because he was working
instead of the men on strike. That he
was assaulted and brutally beaten and
perhaps permanently injured, there
can be no question.
That man Anderson has just as
much freedom and right to work as
you had to refuse to work, and while II
is in evidence that you showed that
this man took the bread out of your
children's mouths, you took the bread
out of his children's mouths, and his
children We're just as dear to him as
yours were to you.
you disabled him, practically speak
ing, from earning bread for his chill
dren, and surely you, as man, can
not claim that he loved his children
less than you love yours.
The law gives you and every work
ingman the right to organize for the
betterment of your condition; the right
to sell your labor to the highest bid
der; the right to refuse to labor for
anyone that you don't like; the right
to withhold your work except on condi-
tions that are agreeable to you.
THE law even goes so far as to eN-
tend TO you the right to persuade other
men to adopt the same course, but
when men representing organized la
Dor step over the very broad and gen
erous provisions of the law and use
violence as an argument TO enforce
their views, for their fellow men, tl:en
the law is violated and not only the
rights of the individual are trampled
upon, but the peace and safety of the
community are in danger"

Now let all these choice specimens
take notice:
We will deposit one thousand or
fifty thousand dollars to be covered by
a like amount from them, or any one OF
them, and If there was ever one ounce
of old bread or any other ingredient
different than our selected wheat ana
barley with a little salt and yeast used
in the making of Grape-Nuts, we will
lose the money.
Our pure food factories are open at all
times to visitors, and thousands pass
through each month, inspecting every
department and every process. Our FAC
tories are so clean that one could, with
good relish, eat meal from the floors.
The work people, both men and wom-
ell, are of the highest grade in the state
of Michigan, and according to the state
labor reports, are the highest paid in
the state for similar work.
Let us tell you exactly what you will
see when you inspect the manufacture of
Grape-Nuts. You will find tremendous
elevators containing the choicest wheat
and barley possible to buy. These
grains are carried through long convey
ers to grinding mills, and there convert
ed into flour. Then the machines make
selection of the proper quantities of this
flour in the proper proportion and these
parts are blended into a general flour
which passes over to the big dough mix
ing machines, there water, salt and lit
tie yeast are added and the dough knead
ed the proper length of time.
Remember that previous to the barley
having been ground it was passed
through about one hundred hours of
soaking in water, then placed on warm
floors and slightly sprouted, developing
the diastase in the barley, which changes
the starch in the grain into form of
sugar.
Now after we have passed it into
dough and it has been kneaded long
enough, it is moulded by machinery into
loaves about is inches long and or
inches in diameter. 1t is put into this
shape for convenience in second cooking.
These great loaves are sliced by ma
chinery and the slices placed on wire
trays, these trays, in turn, placed on great
steel trucks, and rolled into the second
aryovens, each perhaps rs or so feet long.
There the food is subjected to long low
heat and the starch which has not been
heretofore transformed is turned into
form of sugar generally known as Post
Sugar. 1t can be seen glistening on the
granules of Grape-Nuts if held toward
the light, and this sugar is not poured
over or put on the food as these prevari-
Gators ignorantly assert. On the con-
trary the sugar exudes from the interior
of each little granule during the process
of manufacture, and reminds one of the
little white particles of sugar that come
out on the end of hickory log after
it has been sawed off and allowed to
stand for length of time.
This Post Sugar is the most digestible
food known for human use. It is so per-
fectin its adaptability that mothers with
very young infants will pour a little
warm milk over two or three spoonfuls
of Grape-Nuts, thus washing the sugarofr
from the granules and carrying it with
