ASToNiSHED THE DOCTOR Old Lady Got We'll with Change of
 Food.

A great scientist has said we can put ,off "old age" if we can only nourish the body properly.
 To do this the right kind of food, of course. is necessary. The body manu- factures poisons ill the stomach and intestines from certain kinds of food stuffs and unless sufficient of the right kind is used. the injurious elements overcome the good.
 My grandmother, 71 years old" writes a N Y. lady. had been an in valid for IS years from what was called consumption of the stomach and bowels. The doctor had given her up to die.
 'T saw so much about Grape-Nuts that l persuaded Grandmother to try 1t. She could not keep anything on her stomach for more than few minutes.
 "She began Grape-Nuts with only a teaspoonful. As that did not distress her and as she could retain it, she took a little more until she could take all of 4 teaspoonfuls at a meal.
 Then she began to gain and grow strong and her trouble in the stomach was gone entirely. She got to enjoy good health for one so old and we know Grape-Nuts saved her life.
 "The doctor was astonished that in stead of dying she got well, and with out drop of medicine after she began the Grape-Nuts." There's a Reason"

LAST AND GREATEST
PRESIDENTIAL TRUST OUTRANkS
 ALL OTHERS.
Monster Monopoly in Restraint of Freedom Has It's Roots in the White House-Standard
 Oil and Roosevelt.

To the 2S7 trusts discovered and catalogued by Josephus Daniels. plus one organized last week, eandor com pels the addition of the two hundred and eighty-ninth, promoted, instituted and established by Theodore Roose- velt-namely, the Presidential trust
 It has been perfected only recently and has been developed so illusively and insidiously that it's presence is only now coming to be felt. It is not chartered II knows no protection from Jersey laws. In it's compliance with legal definitions it is lame and halt. It embodies no agreem or combination of persons or capital, but In its intent and power to monopoize, to restrain freedom, to interfere with the exercise of rights and liberties, and to influence free action by impair ing or stifling competition. it shows all the Carmarks of the dread organization of monopoly.
 Tendency 10 monopOlize is the pri- nal impulse of any trust MT. Roose- welt would make the presidency a mo- nopoly. A trust always dictates. So does Mir. Roosevelt. A trust seeks to restrict the popular choice and to con- trol it. So does MT. Roosevelt A trust aims to freeze out all others. So does MT Roosevelt. A trust says to the consumer of a commodity Deal with me; I can satisfy you" MT. Roosevelt says to the consumers of the presidency. Leave it to me; I'll fix the presidency for you"
 A trust is jealous of encroachments or its field. So is MT. Roosevelt A trust goes to any length to hamper it's A trust stops at nothing to attain its ends. Neither does Mir. Roosevelt.
 From whatever angle the matter is viewed, the parallel is eloquent and deadly. Standard Oil says to the peo- pie, You shall have no oil but my oil" MT Roosevelt says, You shall have no candidate but my candidate" In the attainment of its ends and the fulfiIlment of it's purposes Standard Oil has left a trail of blighted hopes, shattered fortunes and the gaunt and hungry forms of ambitious competi- tors. In the attainment of his ends and the fulhllment of his purposes Theodore Roosevelt has left a trail as tragic and as sad. Standard oil brooks no opposition; it bullies and overwhelms all opposition, MT. Roose- welt is as impatient when crossed and as competent otherwise.
 The argument is persuasive. logical and eloquent. We have a Presidential trust. It is Theodore Roosevelt-the combination of autocrat, dictator, cen sor, preacher president, politician, mo. nopolist and bully. Is any trust any thing more?-St Louis Republic.

THE TAX IS STILL THERE.

There's a tender reminiseence that Is sursng through my soul As l gaze upon the doughnut with a thin ring round the hole 'Tis a memory abiding of the halcyon days of yore When l hollcred for protection" and de- handed -four years more.'' And kept up a campaign singing in a very lusty tone That just what the country needed was let well enough alone" Now the captains have departed. hushed the loud, tumultuous din And the dinner pail is empty-but the tax is on the tin. Yes, the dinner pail Is empty, but the tax is on the tin; And a tax upon my clothing, and the clothing wearing thin. There's a tax upon the cradle of the babe of which I'm proud; There's tax upon my tahle-thcrell be one upon my shrOud, Yes. I cried out for protection" till my throat was raw and hoarse, And l got it. o l got it-but twas in the neck, of course. Yes. the promise was as empty as tho argument was thin, And the dinner pail is empty-but the tax is on the tin -Four years more" we Eayy shouted; well let well enough alone"' But the tariff soup was gobbled by the trusts-we get the bone. "Worlingmen must have proteetion" was our rousing battlecry, And the tariff barons cheered us as we marched so proudly by Now the barons have departed to gay scenes in Paris France. And the badge of our protection is the patch upon our pants, And we lift the lid and ponder as we sadly gaze within That although the pail is empty, still the tax is on the tin Rockefeller has his millions that he grabbed through tariff graft; Carnegie has just as many. and they're both of them for Taft. Morgan, HaVcmeycr, Dupont, and tho whole protection bunch Live in fatness while yours truly only gets hot air for lunch. once a pail filled to repletion. now a doughnut with hole, And "protection" that's as scanty as a tarin grafters soul. 0. they fooled us good and plenty just as soon as they got in. For the dinner pail is empty-but the tax is on the tin.

NOT UP TO THE RECORD.
Boy Had, at Least Once Seen Larger
 Pedal Extremities.

A pupil of one of the public schools in Chicago sends this communications:
 Dear Sir: In our school this morn ing an amusing dialogue took place.
 "A primary teacher of Chicago, wishing to impress on her pupils the necessity of greater quiet, said:
 "'I am a great deal larger than any of you, yet I don't make any noise when l walk around the room
 Perhaps, remarked little seven year-old Kenneth, you don't wear shoes
 Oh, yes. do. quickly replied the teacher; just look. Did you ever see any larger than mine?'
 Kenneth surveyed them carefully.
 Yes, he replied. slowly, 'once-ln I show '"-Waverly Magazine.

The Roosevelt Pnllnies

One word as to the Roosevelt poli- cies, which we are told Mir. Taft will uphold. They have not been so bril-. liantly successful as the president and his friends seem to think. The policy of fining large corporations for viola tion of the law, instead of putting their officers Uhrough whom alone they can act) in jail, received a severe setback when the Standard oil fine was set aside. The policy embodied in the commodities clause of the Hep burn rate bill got terrible jolt when the federal court of appeals declared that the clause was unconstitutional. And finally we would remind the peo- pie that not one trust has really been busted It is even intimated that the government has found it impos- sible to interfere in any way with Mir. Harriman's operations in the far west. Indianapolis News.

They were asking the eminent law ger why he took such large fee from the trust
 "I think 1t was its largeness that made it easy to take he smilingly answered.

 No" he ingeniously replied, T only stopped to count 1t.

would publish a list of all the cc'n- tributions made to the Republican committee after election"
 If the Republican managers are willing to make Carnegie's contribu- tion public. why not give the names of other heavy contributors? The expla- nation is that Mir Carnegie has given away so many libraries out of the money which he has obtained through undue favoritism" at the hands of the government that the Republican man. agers rely upon his popularity" among the people to prevent the fact of his contribution doing injury.
 But let it be remembered that An drew Carnegie has good reason to contribute to Republican campaign and we need go no further than to Republican newspaper for proof.
 Several years ago it was re- ported that Andrew Carnegie had of fered to pay $20,00O000 for the Phil ippine islands, provided he was per mitted to assure the F1lipinos that they would be given their independ- ence
 Commenting upon this story, the Chicago Tribune said that the steel magnate has tried the patience of his friends severely in some of his late bids for notoriety." It ex- pressed the opinion that Mir Carnegie is constantly posing, and said he scattered libraries throughout the country. all of which are to be called for him, and every one of them is a contribution to the conscience fund ;"
 Then the Tribune said: MT. Car negie made his money in a magnifi- cent way, but he should never forget that he made it through the undue ia yoritism of the government of the United States. Owing to the discrim- inatiOn practiced in his favor by the tariff he was enabled to amass a for tune of $200, ,000,000, or more, most of which came out of the pockets of his countrymen through the operation of unequal laws. Much has been said of the benefit arising 10 workingmen from the establishment of the Car negie works. The beneficent tariff system permitted the works to survive and flourish, but there are some peo- pie who have not forgotten the Home stead strike, nor the outrageous man. ner in which the workingmen were treated at the time by the employers whose brutality has seldom been ex- ceeded in the history of labor agita- tions.
 The Republican party has, in every presidential campaign, and congress siOnal campaign, been financed by the men to whom they have granted what the Chicago Tribune calls undue ia yOritism.' Does any one imagine that the tariff barons and trust magnatos will withhold contribu- lions from the Republican campaign fund this year? Does any one be- lieye that the Republican party will eyer revise the tariff in the interest of the consumers so long as it obtains it's campaign funds from the tariff barons?
 Is anyone surprised that the Repub- lican managers are afraid of the light?
