To the Editor of The Herald:
In recent issue of your valuable paper
appeared a few suggestions from a High
school mother, which seems TO me should
meet with the unanimous approval of ev-
cry parent. as well as the consent of
the High school faculty. 1t seems 10 me
the average family in this city are doing
well to live and keep out of debt. aside
from trying TO keep up appearances with
those who are more fortunate, so far as
these worlds goods are concerned. | am
in position to know whereof | speak, as
have five girls who are of school age, two
of whom have graduated from the grade
schools, and are about to take the High
school course make a fair wage.
but not sufficient in connection with the
needless expense entailed as expressed
by the High school mother.
Why stop at the High school? Let the
board of education arrange for a similar
mode of dress for the grade schools and
be called blessed for all time, is the hope
and earnest desire of hard working

QUAY SCHEME REVIVED.
Plan to Rescue Convention From
Southern DELEGATES.

Chicago, June S.-The anti-Taft people
today evolved plan to prevent south
ern delegations from controlling the Re
publican convention. They declare that
they will submit II to the convention.
The plan is Identical with the plan pro-
posed by Senator Quay of Pennsylvania
in 1883. but which failed of adoption at
that time. This plan If adopted will give
10 each state four delegates at large and
one for every 10000 Republican votes cast
at the last preceding presidential cleo
ton. The effect would be to cut off an
proXimately l60 delegates from the SOUTH
ern states and add approximately $50 TO
the northern states. All of the northern
states would gain excepting Massachu-
sets and Nevada. the latter being con-
sidered a northern state by the hackers
of the plan These would lose one dele
gate each. The states gaining most heay-
ily in representation would be Ohio which
would be increased by H. and Indiana,
which would be increased by II.

A SCHOOL GIRLS MOTHER
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1908-06-09

Let US explain this point of economy-the
only possible point between US.
At an even price you would choose Mapl-
Flake. So would everybody,
All like the Maple syrup, in which this food is
cooked. All like the way we prepare it.
But some faxed foods sell for ten cents.
Some because they are corn, and corn is cheap.
Some because of cheaper process.
But please figure the cream.
That costs as much on poor food as a good
food And it costs more than the food
Add the cream cost to the food cost, and see
how little you save.
Then measure the food by its food value-not
by weight.
Mapl.Flake is all food because it all digests.
That is true of no other food.
The main expense comes in making the wheat
digestible.
We spend 90 hours in preparing Mapl-Flake
lin cooking and curing, in taking and baking.
Yet faxed foods can be made in Is or 20 hours.
We spend all that extra time to separate the
atoms so the digestive juices can get to them.
That is essential. Every food expert knows it.
Suppose you save five cents per package, and
the food only half digests.
You are losing the other half. But that isn't all.
All of the wheat which doesn't digest will fer
ment on the stomach.
1t leads to digestive disorders.

Taft without the southern delegates or
