Beer Is a Food
Of High Quality
It Refreshes and Strengthens the Body
With Predigested Nourishment.

AS a strengthening, nutritious food,
physicians and scientists now agree
that there is nothing, perhaps, more
beneficial than pure beer. Rich in the
food extractives of malt and the tonic
properties of hops, pure beer nourishes
the whole body.
Many people unable to take solid
food have been bAilt up by Pabst Blue
for the well as for the sick. Pabst
Blue Ribbon Beer with your meals
tones up the whole system. Taken in
moderation it cannot have other than
helpful, up-building, strengthening eff
feet, free from false stimulation.
Purity and cleanness are essential
for healthful beer, just as they are
essential for any other healthful food.
And purity and cleanness are watch
words in the great Pabst brewery at
and hops are used, and the whole Pabst
process is a revelation of scientific
progress, the result of sixty years pur-
suit of all the best known methods in
the science. of brewing: A most i'm
portant feature of the Pabst Brewing
process is the Pabst method of making
malt. 1t requires eight days and
doubles the expense of the old four-day
method, still used in many breweries,
but the eight-day Pabst process is the
containing all the nutritious food quail
tiles of barley in predigested form,
can be made.
Absolute cleanliness distinguishes
the entire Pabst process, and the Pabst
Blue Ribbon label is a guarantee of
for purity, cleanliness and the best
beer brewed.
If your food doesn't taste just right.
or If your digestion is little "off," or
your appetite is poor, drink Pabst Blue
Ribbon beer before or with your meals.

FOR NEW FOUNDRY.
House Committee Notified OF Approval
BY Veterans.

The House committee on naval affairs
was officially notified yesterday of the re-
cent action of the Department of the Dis
trtct Of Columbia, United Spanish War
Veterans. in unanimously indorsing the rec
ommendation of Admiral Mason for a new
and modern foundry at the Washington
navy yard. The House is asked to appro
pirate $42l 600 for the establishment of tn,
foundry.
The project was embraced in a bill intro
duced by the late Representative Rixe,
last year. but it was voted on unfavorabl,
by the House committee. The Secretary OF
the Navy asked that the action be reversed
as an amendment today.
Many reasons are advanced by the ma.
chinists why the bill should be passed
Among them is the statement of Capt
Leutze Of the navy that 1t will save the
government at least $4,000 year, besides
allowing the scraps and shavings, which arr
now sold. to be utilized to advantage An.
other point brought out by the machinists
is that the contractors who now do the
work do not waste time in experiments ano
for this reason do not invent the number
of improvements which should follow the
appropriation. Guns made in the navy yard
according to Capt. Leutze, are superior to
those made by contractors.
The southeast citizens are said to be In
favor of the project, as II will give en-
pioyment to many mechanics and enable
the government to keep many of the men
employed who would otherwise be com.
PEELED to resign.
