THE DAY In CONGRESS
IN THE SENATE.

Washington, January 9.-The Senate
today began its session with a lecture
from Senator Hale, who contended that
too much talking, and not enough work
was being done. He had particular refer
ence to his inability to secure the pas
sage of the diplomatic and consular and
fortlfcatdons appropriations bills which
were on the calendar.
Before the session ended these two
measures had been disposed of
Senator Beverage concluded his speech
in advocacy of his child labor bill which
had occupied three days. His argument
today was devoted to the constitutional
power of Congress to prohibit Interstate
commerce in child-made goods. He was
questioned somewhat closely by senators
who hold that this power does not exist,
and in replying took the broad ground
that the power of Congress over inter-
state and foreign commerce was absolute,
that such commerce could be prohibited
altogether, so far as the power was con-
cerned, and that in all cases the question
of policy and not Of power was the point
to be considered.

IMPROVED MEMORY
And Increased Weight From Eating
Proper Food.

The memory and other important func-
tons of the brain are greatly influenced
by the condition of the digestive organs.
This may seem strange to persons who
do not stop to realize that every new
cell In the brain is made up from the
food that is taken into the stomach, be-
cause every thought wastes cells which
have TO be replaced by others.
When the proper food Is used and fully
dgested, so there's no fermentation and
poisonous waste manufactured in the
body, and the new cells are built in as
fast as used up, the brain becomes clear
and memory is sure to be improved.
A Mich. woman writes:
Three years ago 1 was in very bad
condition, nerves so worn the least ex-
element would cause collapse and l was
thin almost to emaciation.
Il tried many changes of diet but moth
ing seemed to agree with me; what
ate just remained in my stomach and
fermented. Seeing Grape Nuts food adver-
tised l thought I would try it.
Il began with two teasponfuls of Grape
Nuts with milk and realized that at last
l had found something l could eat with
out discomfort
"It was my main food for some time
and after a while I could eat other food
without the former i'll effects; the Grape
Nuts seemed to help digestion every way.
Strength began to return and from
1O2 pounds, which was my weight when
began Grape-Nuts, I now weigh 1856,
and consider myself well. With return
ming strength, my memory improved
greatly. I do not suffer the severe ia
tigue / used to or any of the evils that
used to be every day occurrences I
eat WE'LL sleep we'll, and am well-thanks
TO Grape Nuts for IT all" Name given by

The fairyland idyl, "Enchantment," was
presented to a fair-sized audience last
night. by a cast made up entirely of local
talent. The play was given for the bene-
fit and under the auspices of the William
Yancey chapter, United Daughters of the
Confederacy.
For an amateur production the pre-
sentation outranked anything that has
ever been presented here of its kind. The
costumes were beautiful, while many of
the characters developed real ability.
John E. Owens, who has given his time
to the direction scored quite a triumph.
The enchanted atmosphere and fairy
like conversations were especially attrac-
tive.

Majestic Theatre.

Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin Connolly in their
dramatic sketch, "Sweethearts" at the
Majestic theatre this week tell a story
simple and straightforward of the love
of a maiden and her boy sweetheart.
Everything occurs in a garden attached
to the ornamental cottage inhabited by
Miss Jenny Northcote, a bewitehing but
hayward young lady, to whom Harry
Spreadbrow is devotedly attached. Jenny
hears with grief that Harry is on the
point of departure for India and she
is of a pettish disposition her sorrow is
not unmingled with anger. To her girl
ish mind the proposition that love ought
to yield to duty is by no means an
incontrovertible axiom. 80 when the poor
fellow comes to take his leave, he meets
with a sorry reception.
Others on the bill are the Avon Comedy
Four, Brooks and Jeanette, Dav Nowlin
The Pete family of five and Ralston and
son.
