Delightful Outings
On Steamer Jamestown

An evening ride down the Potomac
aboard the splendid new steamer James
town is a pleasure not readily 20 be toT-
gotten. These excursions are made
scven evenings a week. leaving at Z, re-
turning at II.
The speed of this new Norfolk and
Washington boat makes il possible TO
complete a sail of eighty miles, forty
down and forty returning. in the brief
space of four hours. Aside from the
comfort Of the refreshing sail, and tne
satisfaction derived from the knowledge
that the steamer can neither sink nor
burn these outings possess many other
attractions.
There is dancing aboard and an eX-
caUent orchestra. This deck is inside
and has a perfect floor, all outer decks
being rubebr tiled 10 insure secure foot
ing An especially appreciated feature
is the dining saloon, wherein any one
may dine as substantially or as lightly
as the appetite directs The service IS
q la carte All-day trips are made by
the jamestown Sundays. from in the
morning TO In the evening 10 the lower
Potomac. Children arc carried on the
0ay and evening trips at half fare The

LA TOILETTE GRINS
At TRAITOR TALK
Says He Worked for the
Good of the People He
Served.
EXPLAINS HIS ATTITUD E
Every Amendment for Which He Voted,
He Thinks, Would Have
Benefited Bill.

MADISON. Wis. July 21.-'T am glad
10 see f.: it's good" said Senator La
Toilette with a laugh. today, when
shown an article in a Chicago paper in
which friends OF Senator Hemenway. OF
Indiana. sought TO prove that he was
party traitor and the real enemy OF the
rate bin passed by Congress. The point
made was that Senator La Toilette and
the Democrats sought TO load the bill
down with amendments which would
have impaired its ConstituuonaIity.
Il do not understand the meaning Of
treason to party and COZ ntry II Z
means working for the good Z { the peO-
pie" said the Senator. Every amend
ment that ] voted for would. in my
opinion. have strengthened the bill and
afforded that much more protection and
justice 70 the people, and II does not
look well for some of the leaders Of
the party 10 reflect that il these amend
ments had been substantially all incor-
porated IN the measure the House
would never have concurred In II. No
rate bill would have been passed and
the Republicans would have been IN a
pretty hole indeed.
THE bill as amended by the Senate
was immeasurably better than that re-
ported by the House. but when II went
back 10 the House some of the amend
ments had 10 be sacrificed IN order 10
get IL through The steering committee
of the House would stand for nothing
else II was cut them out or Kill the
bill and the Senate conferees yielded
TO save the body OF the measure. Then
the House steering committee ruled
that there should be no amendment and
no debate on the conference report.
The members had 10 swallow iJ
whole or vote against II. That is why
some Republicans voted against tho
measure. They could get no informa-
tion even as 20 what the bill contained,
and they were so mad that rather -han
vote In the dark, they went on record
against Il.
The Hepburn bill as II came from
the House was a very defective meas
ure. Railroad influence could be seen
all through IL. Whether the House lead
ers had been cunningly taken IN by rail-
road attorneys IL is not for me 10 say.
but certainly the railroads would have
been immensely pleased with such
comparatively harmless measure

Gay Chevy Chase Lake
Popular for Outings

From the constantly increasing at
tendance II Is apparent in what staunch
regard the pleasure-seeking public holds
Chevy Chase Lake The resort is gay
est at night II Is well patronized by
day There are unusually good facili-
ties for picnic parties, supply OF pure
drinking water is furnished from four
springs: OF lawn benches and summer
houses there is no lack. while there IS
the additional attraction or unequaied
car service, making Il easy and pleasant
to reach the lake as well as return
from it. In the evening all the various
amusements are going. providing as
diverse means OF recreation as the aver
age person can demand. The speSial
feature Is the Marine Band concerts,
given every evening. and followed by
dancing.
Sundays. when there is or course no
dancing, a program of extra length Is
rendered. The beautiful illuminatiOns at
Chevy Chase Lake are a constant
source of pleasure to visitors.

Found on
the Skin.
Phosphate
Direct from the
Brain.

We know that active brain work
throws out the phosphate OF potash, for
this product Is found on the skin after
excessive brain work. therefore. brain
workers. in order to keep well. must
,have proper food containing phosphate
of potash . quickly and surely rebuild
the used-Hp tissue. That one can obtain
surh food has been proven IN thousands
OF cases among users Of Postum Food
Coffee and Grape-Nuts.
Both contain phosphate Of potash in
minute particles, just as II is furnished
by nature in the grains.
This product makes from albumen the
gray matter that builds tie brain and
fills the nerve centers.
In no way can this gray matter be
made except by the action Of phosphate
of potash upon albumen. and this min
eral should be introduced to the body
just as It comes from natures Iabora-
tory. and not from the drug store. The
system is more or less fasudious about
taking up the needed elements, and. as
might be suspected. II viii favor the
products of Mother Nature rather than
the products of the drug shop, however
valuable they may be for certain uses.
Athletes, lawyers, journalists. doctors,
ministers. business men, and others. who
earn their living by the use of the brain.
are using both Postum Food Coffee and
Crane Nuts food. Both products are
manufactured for reason. They were
originated BY an expert. and the regen-
erative value Of bCth the Postum Coffee
and the Food has been demonstrated be
vond question. All first-class grocers
sell both Postum and Grape-Nuts. and
the Postum Cereal Co.. Ltd. manufac-
ture them at tho Battle Creek factories.
