The Only Food

The only wheat food that is perfectly cooked
q pretty strong claim, is it not?
Steam cooked for six hours-then thoroughly
cured-then baked at 400 degrees.
It requires SO hours to turn wheat into Mapl.
Flake. Yet faxed food can be made in from 10 to
20 hours. Let us tell you what difference that
makes in the food.
Wheat is composed largely of starch.
Starch, to be digestibe, must be made soluble.
The particles must be separated, the digestive
juices get to them.
You cannot digest raw starch
The only way to break up the granules of starch
is to apply fierce heat. and for long That is why
wheat is daked-to get it so thin that the heat goes
through.
In baking bread. the inside of the loaf never gets
heat enough That is why bread doesn't all digest.
That is why more will digest when it's toasted.
The more starch you break up by heat, the more
food you will get. But no form of wheat food
save Map- Flake-is so cooked that all of the wheat
becomes digestible

STORY
OF HIS HERO|SM
Edward Spencer, at Evangelistic
Meeting, is Surprised by Speak
er's Illustration.
INCIDENT AT LOS ANGELES
Former Rock islander Is called to
Platform by Or. Torrey and intro
duced to Big Audience.

An interesting incident occurred at
ward w. Spencer, formerly of this
city, was an innocent and interested
spectator. Mr. Spencer had been in
Los Angeles a few days for the burial
of his son George, who accidentally
shot himself. The great evangelist.
DR.. Torrey, was holding in Los An
geles evangelistic services at the Tor
rey tabernacle. A large audience was
present. Dr. Torrey was speaking with
great earnestness of the value of a
soul. The Los Angeles Times states
the incident in which Mr.. Spencer fig
'ured as follows:
"In comparing the saving of life, as
compared with the saving of souls, the
preacher spoke thus of death:
81 hate death Death itself is an
enemy. 1t came into my home and
took out one of the sweetest souls
that ever lived, and hate death, but
blessed be God, through the Lord
Jesus Christ, life has come
1.-THE evangelist ironically referred
to the man or woman whose greatest
ambition is to shine in society," He
passed the subject with:
Say, it isn't worth while
An Unexpected Sequel.
Shouting that men and women are
going down in Los Angeles, he told,
with startling effect, the story of the
saving of II men and women from
death in Lake Michigan, by Edward
Spencer, at the time of the wreck of
the Lady Elgin. As years ago
THE sequel to the story.-which the
speaker said he had first heard told by
John Willis Baer, who sat on the plat
form, was even more startling than the
story for DR.. Torrey had just dropped
the last word, when some one said:
Ed Spencer is down there in the
audience
lence, as the audience had been dis
missed informally, while those who
had held up their hands at the close
of the sermon were asked to come for
ward. He said:
az am told that Edward Spencer i:
in the audience, and if he is, would
like to see him.
| ''The whole audience stopped, while
Mr.. Spencer was escorted to the plat
form, and introduced as the hero o
the story.
"Mr. Spencer's only remark was:
1T was just As years ago.
| Greeted Hero.
Before he could leave the platform
men and women crowded around hin
to shake his hand, and stepping dow
behind low railing, he held receI
ton that came near stampeding tn
injecting. Hundreds of people MARCHES
by and offered blessings and congrat
ulations.
"Mr. Spencer lives in the Antelop
valley and came to this city yesterday
with the body of his son, and was fiji
ed with astonishment at the sudde
turn things took at the Torrey mee
ing"

Only Get Service for

At the meeting of the joint commit
tee representative of the commercial
bodies of the three cities, held in the
parlors of the Davenport Commercial
club yesterday afternoon, to consider
and act as far as possible upon the
petitions of the representatives of the
city of Aledo relative to the purpose
of the Rock Island Southern railway
to leave the Mercer county capital out
of it's main line. now in process of
construction, much was learned as to
the plans of the company.
The committee acting as a whole
with Mr.. Shuler as chairman, first
went over the entire situation, and
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1908-11-20

he felt reasonably certain that eventu-
ally the company would construct a
line to Aledo and possibly further,
leaving the impression that cross
road from New Windsor on the east
| through Viola and Aledo as far even
as New Boston on the west was not
without the range of possibility.
In Successful Operation.
Superintendent Mccullough spoke of
the success of the operation of the line
between Galesburg and Monmouth,
both in passenger and freight bust
| ness, and he felt that the main line
between Monmouth and the three cit
les would prove equally profitable both
as to passenger and freight when con-
| structed and equipped and put in op-
Grafton.
After Messrs. Walsh and McCul-
Tough had made their statements, they
were excused by the committee, which
lthereupon, on motion, provided for the
appointment of committee composed
of the chairmen of each of the various
committees, to meet the Aledo COM
mittee at the Davenport Commercial
club at noon next Tuesday to confer
further on the subject. The commit
tee as SO designated is composed of w.

Mark A. Walsh, one of the main pro-
moters, and w. W. Mccullough, super
intendent of construction and opera
ton, responded. The information i'm
parted was that in order to build the
road as closely to the survey for an
air line between Rock Island and Mon
mouth as possible, and at the same
time penetrate the center of immense
coal fields enroute, the cutting out
both of Aledo and Viola was unavoid-
able. In fact, the main line comes
through that section about midway be-
company was nevertheless willing to
build a cross line connection with the
main line and running between Viola
and Aledo, and a little beyond the lat
ter place, on condition that a Subscrip-
ton to 100000 in bonds be made. To
length, Mr.. Walsh and Superintendent
Mccullough explained, would require
an expenditure of 100000, but that the
company required but half that amount
! in bonds. 1t was also developed that
in Aledo pledges for half the amount
required, or $4,000, had been secured,
but that was the limit which could be
raised, and the hope was expressed
that similar subscription to the bond
issue might be made in the three
cities.
/ No Prospect of Bonds,
While all present realized the i'm

desire to cooperate with that enterpris
