AN EARNEST PLEA FOR HIGHER

The Potent Force of Evil.

President Roosevelt's much-heralded
speech on THE Man With the Muck
Rake" was delivered Saturday after
noon at the laying of the cornerstone
of the house of representatives office
building. Among the many strong
points of the address these had place:
THE man who never does anything
save think, write or speak OF his feats
with the muck-rake is one OF the most
potent forces OF evil"
THE liar is no whit better than the
thief, and II his menGacity takes the
form of SANDER he may be worse than
most thieves
"One serious difficulty in getting the
right type Of men to dig the Panama
canal Is the certainty that they will
be assaied both within and without
congress.
There is nothing more distressing
to every good patriot than the hard,
scoffing spirit which treats the allega-
ton of dishonesty in a public man as
cause for laughter
Some persons are sincerely incap-
able of understanding that TO denounce
mud-slinging does not mean the in
dorsement of embarrassing. and both

those who practice mud-slinginG like
to encourage such confusion of ideas"

Now let all these choice specimens
take notice:
we will deposit one thousand or
fifty thousand dollars to be covered by
n 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 and
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 a meal from the floors.
The work people, both men and wom-
en-, 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 10 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
-four in the proper proportion and these
parts are blended into a general flour
which passes over 70 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
oh al httn hnnrC a
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 ii into
dough and it has been kneaded long
enough, 1t is moulded by machinery into
loaves about Is inches long and or q
inches in diameter. II 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 75 or so feet long
There the food is subjected TO a long low
heat and the starch which has not been
heretofore transformed is turned into a
form OF sugar generally known as Post
Sugar IL can be seen glistening on the
granules of Grape-Nuts il 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
