TURNING OUT
The BEST WORK

The bindery of the Bonanza is

done there once, never goes anywhere

most complete, not only in the State,
but this side Of San Francisco. We
can turn out all kinds of work that

Washington, D. C.-Declaring that
the women concerned sacrifice their
souls and their honor on the altar Of
snobbery and vice." Representative
Charles McGavin, of Chicago, took
occasion in the House to denounce
"the international marriage habit" on
the part of American heiresses. 1t
was only few days ago that Repre-
sentative SABBATH, of Chicago, intro
duced bill to tax all property ezpa-
triated through marriage settlements
made on account of such alliances.
Mr.. McGavin, who is native of Illi-
nois, got to Congress by defeating
Carter H. Harrison's brother.
. 'In thinking of these numerous
weddings" he said, 81 wondered
what the early pioneers who battled
with the Indians, challenged the for

where manhood might be recognized
for its true value, instead Of for the
accident of birth, would say IL from
their graves they could look back
and see so many Of the women of this
country sacificing their souls upon
the altar of snobbery and vice.

"a bill has been introduced in the
House by one Of my colleagues from
Chicago to levy a tax upon all dow
ries and upon their titled husbands.
I am not here to advocate the passage
of that bill or to oppose it, but my

MRS. EDDY MOVES TO BOSTON.
Takes Up Abode in 100000
House in Br0okIine.
Makes Trip From Concord With
Party of Christian Scientists in
Special Train, With Pilot.

Boston.-For the ostensible pur-
pose of being near the mother
church" in Boston Mrs. Mary Baker
G. Eddy, head Of the Christian
Science Church, deserted Pleasant
View, her home in Concord, N. H.,
for many years, and moved to Brook
line, Mass, where she will spend the
remainder of her days in the splendid
S20O, 900 Lawrence house, in the,
Chestnut Hill region.
ACCOMPANIED by about fifty of her
nearest workers Mrs. Eddy came to
Brookline in special train Of three
cars with O. pilot engine preceding
the train and another locomotive fol-
lowing.
The trip was made over circuit
GUS route in order that the aged lead
er would not have ITO pass through
Boston. The train ran to Lowell on
the Boston and Maine, thence to
South Framingham on the New Ha-
ven, thence to Riverside on the Bos-
ton and Albany and then to tho
Chestnut Hill station over the Brook
line circuit of the Boston and Albany.
Arriving at Chestnut Hill the entire
party took carriages which were In
waiting and drove to the Lawrence
house, where Mrs. Eddy took up her
domicile at 4.45 o'clock p. m.
Alfred Parlew, head of the Chris
tian Science press agency, gave out
the following statement concerning
the sudden transfer Of Mrs. Eddy I'd
Brookline:
"The Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, dis
coverer and founder Of Christian
Science, has moved from Concord. N.
H., to Brookline, a suburb OF Boston,
The Lawrence estate, which has been
remodeled, has been quietly furnished
for Mrs. Eddy and her household and
she occupied It about 4.45 o'clock.
Only a very few Of Mrs. Eddy's
friends knew of her contemplated
move. ....... r. .i
cat Mrs. Eddy's new home every
thing was found in full equipment
and supper was served at the usual
hour. Except for the three hours re-
quired to make the trip there was no!
break in the usual routine OF the famI'
lily. .'. :.
"This move was not prompted by
any sudden decision. It is known to-
some of. Mrs. Eddy's friends that sho.
has been considering for some years
the advisability of returning to this
city, her purpose to be more conve-
nient to the mother church Of the de-
nomination, nearer to its headquar-.

"The whole affair, including the
preparation of the house, was in
keeping with Mrs. Eddy's usual way,
of doing things. She weighs matters
deliberately and carefully, then acts
quickly" ... :.

Committee, inasmuch as 1t sought to
levy a tax Then was more curious
to know whether the present tariff
schedule included dukes. earls, lords

things were nowhere mentioned, l

CUBS FOOD
They Thrive On Grape-Nuts.

Healthy babies don't cry, and the
well-nourished baby that is fed on
Grape-Nuts Is never crying BABY.
MANY babies who cannot take any
other food relish the perfect tooo'
Grape-Nuts, and get well.
"My little baby was given up oy
three doctors, who said that the con-
densed milk on which 1 had fed her
had ruined the child's stomach. One
of the doctors told me that the only
thing to do would be to try Grape
Nuts, so I got some and prepared 1t
az follows: I soaked "a tablespoon
fuls in one pint Of cold water for half
an hour, then I strained off the liquid
and mixed IL teaspoonfuls OF this
strained Grape-Nuts juice with six
teaspoonfuls of rich milk, put In q
pinch of salt and little sugar,
warmed it and gave it to baby every
two hours.
In this simple, easy way I saved
baby's life and have built her up to a
strong, healthy child, rosy and laugh
ing. The food must certainly be per-
feet to have such wonderful effect
as this. I can truthfully say think
it is the best food in the world to
raise delicate babies on, and is also
delicious, healthful food for grown
ups, as we have discovered in our
family"
Grape-Nuts is equally valuable to
the strong, healthy man or woman.

health. There's a Reason" Read

500 American Girls, With
$2OA,OOO, 900, Have Wed Titles

are the exceptions that prove the rule.
Unhappiness. shame and ignominy
have come in most Of the internation-
al marriages.
The most recent American heiress
to sue for q divorce was the Countess
of Ca5tellane, who was Miss Anna
Gould. This was love match that
ended disastrously. And when Miss
Gould married the picturesque Boni
it was confidently believed 1t was a
union that would bring happiness to
the bride. Miss Gould brought ST.
100000 to her Count.
There is a prevalent opinion that
it is safer for young American
heiress to take up the lion tanning
business and to plunge on the races
than to marry a title. The general
view seems to be that with such
marriage she is sure to lose her
money and her happiness, and is
lucky if she gets off with her life.
