The First church of Lynn, one of the
Oldest organizations in the country, has
lately celebrated its one hundred and sew
enty-ffth anniversary Accounts of the
services, however interesting, contain
nothing of so exciting a nature as do those
of a former celebration. The occurrences
marking the dedication of the 'tOld Tun-
mel Meeting House" in 1852 are recorded
by an eyewitness and quoted in "Oba-
diah Oldpath - Lin" After the formal
ceremony of dedication a feast was heldd
Ye dinner was in We create barne of
Mr.. Hoode. While we were at table a
rooster flew to ye beam over our heads.
Mr.. Richardson. We NeWbury minister in
a very loud voice and stately mien pro-
claimed that ye house was a noble tenn
cody jewel Lin. Whereupon a most lusty
crow was set up by We old cock on We
beam, and he tapped his wings, sending
ye dust down onto ye table.
We companie hurled apples at We misbe-
having fOWle, but not being of good aim
did not hit and with a whirring noise It
flew to We ground as if in disgust
Mr.. Gerrish was in merTie mood. Not
having his thots about him. he endeav-
ored We dangerous performance of gaping
and laughing al We same time. In doing
SO he set his jaws open in such wise that
it was beyond his power to bring them
back again. His agonie was very create
and his joyful laugh was soon turned to
grieuous grooming.
We did our utmost to stay the anguish
of Mr.. Gerrish. but could make out but
little till Mr.. Rogers. who knoweth some
thing of anatomie, did bid We sufferer to
sit down on ye floor. and taking his head
between his legs, turning ye face upward
as muh as possible gave a powerful blow
and sudden press which brought ye jaws
again into working order. But Mr. Ger
rish did not cape nor laugh much more,
neither did he talk much, for that matter.

FIGHT AGAINST
THE FOOD TRUST
Amended Bill in Equity Filed in
PittSburg - Answer Re-
CURED in 20 Days.

Pittsburg. Pa, Oct. 19.-Attorney A
n. Anderson today filed in the federal
court an amended bill in equity in the
fight being waged here against the
high price of food stuffs and the al
legged discrimination against certain
dealers by the various produce asso-
Citations throughout the country
The new bill is much larger in its
scope than that filed recently by W. H.
Arbour against the Pittsburg Produce
association. BY the new bill all the
persons who formerly we're mentioned
as having been placed on the alleged
blacklist of the trade association have
been made compliments in the case,
and many of the largest fruit growers
of the country. together with all the
railroads leading into Pittsburg, are
defendants.
Among the concerns named as de-
PENDANTS are the National Produce Dis
trfbuting company, California Fruit
Growers exchange, the international
Apple Shippers association, the Elgin
board of trade and John Pitt, their
Pittsburg agent
In the latter part Of the bill there
are several pages which contain photo
graphic copies of the advertisements
of some of the defendants named, in
which the claim is made that they
own or control the entire output of a
certain class of products. An answer
10 the amended bill viii be required To
be filed within thirty days.

NECESSITY OF A VARIED DIET.

A matter of no little. Importance in
maintaining a good healthy appetite Is
variety of diet. AppetiteS soon flag If
there is monotonous sameneSS in our
daily food. An unusual delicacy will
add to the enjoyment of the whole
meal.
OF course, bread is a staple food. No
meal is complete without bread or some
other wheat food. We may think we
never tire of bread, but try some rad
zeal change and see how welcome it is.
Try National Biscuit companys Ora
ham Crackers. The unbolted wheat OF
which they are made is not only de-
licous. but stimulates the appetite and
the digestion
The flavor Of the National Biscuit
company Graham Crackers is entirely
different from the old coarse kind orig
inaIly made by DR.. Graham. The same
progress which experience, skill and
study have produced in eli the pro-
ducts of this company has made the
Graham Cracker not only a health
food, but delightful delicacy.
For the indoor worker-the office
man. the inactive, nothing makes q
better lunch than Graham Crackers
and milk. Light. but sustaining, with
out heaviness or sleepiDess so often
following a hearty lunch of rich foods.
Keep Graham Crackers on the table
as well as bread, and the staff of life
can be eaten in either form that par
ticularly appeals TO the taste.

proof packages, keeping in all their de-
lightful flavor. crispness and fresh

legal question of the right of the govern
ment to collect the tax under an old

to enforce the collection Of the claim will
depend upon the decision to be reached by
