WHAT IT is.
IN of the Famous Food.

Composition OF the Famous Food.
A widespread interest has been Gre
ated among good livers, as to the COM
position of Grape-Nuts, the food that
has become popular and famous the
world over.
II has long been known to physi-
clans, chemists and food experts that
the starchy portion of entire wheat
and barley flours is transformed into
a true and very choice sugar, by the
act of intestinal digestion in the hui
man body. The sugar is Identical with
and is known as grape sugar, and ii
is in condition for immediate transfer
nation into blood and the necessary
structure from which the delicate
nerve centers are built up.
A food expert followed a line of ex-
periments until he produced the food
called Grape-Nuts, of which grape-su-
gar forms the principal part and 1t is
produced by following natures pro-
cesses in a mechanical way. That is
heat, moisture and time are the meth
eds employed and directed by scien-
tific facts gained in research
Grape-Nuts food is probably entitled
to the claim of being the most perfect
ly adapted food for human needs in
existence. Certain it is that the users
delight in the flavor and the perfect
action of intestinal digestion during
the use of Grape-Nuts is satisfying,
and the added strength of body con-
firms the fact There's a Reason. s.

The Patrol of Conduit Road.

Interviews with War Department officials
which have been printed since the decision
of the Attorney General on the Conduit
road jurisdiction was rendered indicate
that the government authorities realize
that the ruling imposes upon them the
duty of patroling the highway to protect
life and property. The exact method to
be pursued remains for decision by the
Secretary of War, who may, it is sug-
gested. secure the appointment of deputy
marshalS commissioned by the United
States to make arrests in cases of violation
of the federal statutes which may apply
to this peculiarly situated stretch of ter
ritory. 1t is to be borne in mind that the
Conduit road in Maryland does not fall I'M
der the scope of laws enacted specifically to
embrace the District of Columbia nor
those which apply to the District and the
territories. 1t doubtless comes within the
range of laws which apply to government
reservations and it is possible that certain
offenses recognized as crimes against the
laws of the District or those of MARYLAND
are not so recognized as crimes against the
laws which would thus cover the eleven
miles of highway which the government
now undertakes to patrol.
1t is certain that there is no federal
upon public roads, within or without gov
eminent reservations The local speed
laws and regulations assuredly do not ap-
ply to the Conduit road outside of the
District. The Attorney General declares
that the officer in charge of the auueduct
may make his own regulations governing
the use of the road, and may for viola
tons. exclude offenders from the highway
but may not cause their arrest Thus
even If the major of engineers now in
charge should see fit to impose a speed
limit upon motor cars other vehicles
along the eleven miles of Maryland road,
he could not impose fines or otherwise pun
ish attractions. The question arises
whether he would adopt the expedient Of
issuing licenses to motor cars to use the
road. revokable upon the violation of the
speed rules he had promulgated, and thus
exclude offenders from the highway by that
device. Or it may be that he will be In
clined to regard the outer portion of the
road as suitable for a speedway for all
manner of vehicles and impose speed
limit upon its users. in which case the Con-
duit road would soon be surrendered to the
scorchers and rendered quite unsafe for
ordinary citizens who by preference or
necessity travel at slower PAGES
The automobile question, however is OF
less immediate Importance than the exact
definition of the governments responsible

tion of crime. and the means it can or will
take to discharge those responsibilities in

greatest waste of water occurs on the
premises of the government, and that II
the metering system is to be applied on a
large scale it should be first of all imposed
as check upon the federal users. At all
events, it is imperative. If this matter is
judicialy considered. that the percentage
of use in the departments and parks be first
ascertained. so that the true per capita use
of water by the citizens of the District
may be computed.
1t is unfair to charge the community with
a gross waste of water as long as this UNI
known quantity remains in the equation.
The "x' of government use must be re-
solved to a definite figure before the charge
even be brought, with justice, that the
local houscholders are extravaganza
There is. however, nc question as to the
wisdom of the immediate institution of
works for the enlargement of the reservoir
and conduit system, recommended in his
annual report by Maj. Cosby. Similar

been UNDECIDED by Coz gress. The dam at

years ago. and an additional conduit should
have been simultaneously laid into the city.
might require upon this enlarged basis.
The reasons advanced for supplementary
conduit are unanswerable. The present one
might at any time be subject to breach
due to sudden excessive pressure, or chok
ing due to the fall of rock from the roof.
1t should in any case be possible to put it
out of commission temporarily, in order to
repair and clean it, without endangering
the health of the city by stoppage of the
supply.
1t is remarkable that the appeals of the
War Department for even an inquiry APP
preparation have been so long UNDECIDED in
view of the urgent need of present pro-
vision for the extension of the service.
Washington is growing at rapid rate. and
leaving altogether aside the question of
waste, it is perfectly plain that in a few
years the population will have seriously
crowded the capacity of the conduit and
reservoirs. 1t is only common prudence to
begin in good season public work that Of

Trust-Busting by Receivers.
W York Evening Post

From the New York Evening Post.
We are not able to rise to the heights
of indignation easily attained by some OF
our contemporaries over the proposal Of
the government lawyers to ask for receiv
ers for trusts found in restraint OF trade
This Is variously declared to be an unheard
of straining of the equity powers of the
courts. a policy which has "all the terrors
of absolutism." etc. Why so hot over q
legal question which the courts will try out
in an orderly and. we may be sure. highly
deliberate manner? 1t is said that this is
a legal novelty. Well. for our part. we are
not displeased to see the assailants of op-
pressive combinations exercise a little of
that fertile ingenuity for which the law
yers in their defense have long been noted
The law is a great arsenal OF weapons, old
and new. layman cannot tell what one
may be drawn out and successfully used.
In the early nineties the process of injunc-
ton against strikers was good deal of q
novelty. but it justified and maintained it
SELF though it was undoubtedly abused.
The remedy of receivers for trusts may. for
all that newspaper jursts can tell, equally
validate itself in law.

Japanese SensitivenesS.
the Springfield (Mass) U.ion:


The Japanese by nature is supersensi-
tive Anything which he thinks reflects i'll
any way upon his race or his nation is re-
scented more quickly than wisely. The exhl-
bition of sore thumbs to which we are now
being treated on the Pacific coast results
in part from this well-known tendency
There is no reason why Americans should
not be frank about this business. The Jap
anese have shown no greater constituencies
on the subject of the San Francisco mob.
following so close upon the school question
there then We should have shown had mat
tiers been reversed Imagine the effect in
this country of the news of the maltreat-
ment of American citizens residing in
Japanese city, with the statement that 1t
foretold the expulsion of all Americans from
Japan Widespread and justfable indigna-
ton would have been aroused. and a de-
mand made at once that the government
take action. Both press and politicians
would have been vigorously outspoken.
1t has often been pointed out that the
prestige of Great Britain rests largely upon
the way she champions and protects her
subjects. She follows them with solicitude
wherever they are. They never, when in
trouble, fail to appeal to her, and they
never appeal to her in vain. She has
long and inspiring record of help rendered
TO her own abroad.
The whole San Francisco affair was de-
plorable. 1t began in trick and a fraud
about the admission of Japanese children to
the schools and ii extended to the mobs on
the streets. whose work was of piece with
that of the school authorities. Mr.. Roose-
welt very properly rebuked the agitators,
and his attitude is still that of the country
on the subject. America no more than the
President stands for such conduct as has
brought pain and disgust to a friendly ma
ton.
But while all this is true. it is for Japan
to consider the difficulties under which we
labor in the premises. 1t is not in our
power as a nation to move as directly or
with the CELEBRITY expected Our forms and
the divisions of authority are our own and
they bind even in our dealings with for
eign governments. Still, in this case We
are moving and our first move is to clean
up the city where these embarrassments
occurred. The rascally mayor is in JAIL
and other officials will soon keep him COM
pany there: and before we are through San
Francisco will be place where alien and
native alike can I've in peace, and on good
terms with each other The city a few
months ago was disgrace to America and
X was then that the Japanese were so
shamefully misused

Expounding the Constitution.

Two state bar associations yesterday
heard the question of state rights expound-
ed. In North Carolina Judge Alton B.
Parker was the speaker; in Kentucky ex-
Attorney General Harmon spoke. Both are
lawyers of distinction, and on every account
command attention. Judge Parker led his
party in the campaign of 1904, and Judge
Harmon is among those proposed for leader
next year. Both are democrats, unless
too rigid adherence to Bryanite definitions
is insisted upon.
Valuable as discussion of this character
by such men may be. too much of it goes
over the heads of those it Is most impor-
tant to reach. 1t is too professional. 1t
partakes too much of the classroom Law
yers follow it with unaffected interest and
undeniable profit. But lawyers are few
comparatively. and. besides. are liable to
appear in court and take side and then
the other of all disputed points.
What is most necessary is a simplification
of matters for the benefit OF the layman's
understanding. The average elector is the
man to be reached. He yields the power
at the polls. and he must be convinced if
the country is now on the wrong track and
headed for disaster. And he cannot be
reached by the reinements of legal fenc-
room. VI such things sound and look alike
to h:u.
There may be too much statute law.
There may he undesirable law in the way
of construction. Old forms may here and
there have been disregarded, or twisted to
suit emergencies. But what the average
man sees is a development. commercial,
financial and political so rapid and so great
that action OF some kind seems necessary
for its regulation. 1t really Is little to him
whether the state or the nation applies the
remedy. He wants a remedy for every
abuse. and wants 1t at once and applies
where response is the readiest.
So that this old talk about centraIza-
ton and state rights must be reduced to
plain and graspable terms by the man in
the mill. the man in the counting room the
man in the street. the man in the field
Are we losing. or on the eve of losing, our
liberties the result of the growth of the
central power? Have the states been neg
lectful OF the exercise of their powers ?
And now that they are waking up, do they
show signs of going too far? The Constitu-
tion was not wholly the work of lawyers
and discussion of il today should not be
left entirely to them.

Water Waste and Water Needs.

District citizens are not yet satisfied with
the arguments for compulsory metering an
nually advanced by the federal officers in
charge of the water supply OF the capital.
They regard the charge of excessive waste
as not yet proved against them either as
business men or as hoUseholders, and until
that proof is advanced they will refuse their
support to the proposition that meters
should be installed in all houses and stores
In order to reduce the per capita consump-
ton.
The main reason why the people decline
to consider themselves as offenders against

Treatment for Scorchers.
From the Omaha Bee.

The automobile has become recognized
as a vehicle of transportation as much as
a carriage or a street car. and there Is no
disposition anywhere to prevent the growth
and expansion of the automobile industry.
but there is a growing demand throughout
the country for some drastic legislation
that seems absolutely necessary to impress
upon motor car drivers that they have no
monopoly of the roads, streets and other
thoroughfares. There is no excuse for in
experienced chauffeurs, but the dangers
that they cause is less than that due to
reckless chauffeurs, the owners and opera
tors who have become victims Of speed
mania and apparently take no thought of
the safety of others

Any proposition that the United States
