Make US prove II.

One of the best evidences of the
great advantage that comes from buy
ing the goods of old established
factories is seen in the package of
Quaker Toasted Corn Flakes now
offered by The Quaker Oats Company.
Their tremendous manufacturing
facilities enable them to give the
largest family size package and to put
into it quality of fine china seldom
seen. This is the biggest Csc worth
of food and china that has ever been
sold. These flakes are also sold in
regular size package, without china,
at 10c.

Walt Mason: The COW eats hay
with her main and might; she
eats all day and she eats all night;
as fine as silk is her bill of fare;
when it comes to milk, then she
isn't there The hens loaf around
all the sunny morn, and pound
by pound they eat the corn; with
their yellow legs they scratch
and tear; when it comes to eggs
they are not there. The damsel
plays on the piano or she spends
her days where her dress will
show; though many a dub may
think her fair, at preparing grub,
well, she isn't there. The young
mans done with his days at
school, and he bets mon on his
skill at pool; he can smoke and
chew grown mans share, but
when there's work to do, then he
isn't there.

How To
Gain Flesh

Persons have been known to
gain a pou,ada day by taking an
ounce of Scott Emulsion. IL
is strange, but it often happens.
Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start
the digestive machinery going
properly, SO that the patient is
able to digest and absorb his
ordinary food which he could
not do before, and that is the
way the gain is made
A certain amount of flesh is
necessary for health; if you
have not got it you can get it

This card of thanks signed by
Lysander Jones was published
in the Kincaid Dispatch: I'VE
wish to thank the city authorities
for quarantining me and my fami-
ly for two weeks recently because
one of the children had smallpox.
During the time my wife caught
up with her sewing, undisturbed
by callers. We had three square
meals day and no one came in
and my wife was not permitted
to go out. We enjoyed two weeks
of good nights sleep and best of
all a cousin with four children
arrived to visit with US, saw the
signal on the door and left town
so scared that she will never
come back again. I wish to
thank the city authorities and
hope they will think of our com
forts some time again."
Gossip is one of the popular
crimes that has caused more sor
row in life than murder. It is
drunkenness of the tongue: it is
assassination of regulations. 1t
runs the cowardly gamut from
mere ignorant, impertinent in
trusion into the lives of others to
malicious SANDER. If facts do not
exist it creates them, if they be
innocent it transforms them into
evidence of black guilt by ingen-
iouS perverSion. In interpreta-
ton it always chooses the worst
of two possible motives. 1t con
stituteS itself a secret court of
inquisition that decides on the
fate of the victim in his absence
when he has no chance to speak
in his own behalf. It is a con
spiracy of wrong. He who lis
tens to it without protest is as
evil as he who speaks. One strong
manly voice of protest, of appeal
to justice, of calling halt in the
name of charity could fumigate a
room from gossip as a clear, sharp
winter wind kills pestilence.
Sometimes gossip does not deal
altogether in words; a sneer, a
raising of the eyebrows, an elo-
quent smile or shrug of the
shoulders and the deed is accom-
plished-a reputation lies dead
in the roadway, some ones
mighty faith in some one has its
pulse stilled forever, some one is
walking his weary way alone in
the silence with the sun of love
| blotted from his sky.-Ex.

At CONVENTION

dozen delegates to the convention Of

gress. telling what they thought about
the policy of improving t-e waterways
of the United States and methods that
should be pursued in bringing about
the end desired by all. characterized
the meeting of that organization to-
day.
One of the strongest pleas for ma
tional Improvement OF the waterways
was made by Secretary Nagel OF the
department of commerce ana labor
who declared that the nature OF the
interstate navigation made the ma
tional government responsible for pro-
viding suitable water courses for COM
merce Neither private enterprise nor
state appropriations could be permit
ted to improve these highways OF the
nation. he said. so that, if they were
TO be looked after at all the general
government must do 1t. Without max.
Ing a distinct reference 10 the issu-
ance of bonds for the work, he sug-
gested that whatever was to be done
should be accomplished in a way to
insure the completion of comprehen-
siye project.

amount Of enthusiasm. He showed
how his association had been out

need OF the inland passage along the
Atlantic as q means of placing the in

One of the most interesting speakers
Of the day was Senator Burton of
Ohio, who, without taking issue with
those who advocated a bond issue, re-
minded them that he had a couple of
"don'ts" for them to remember. He
admonished them not to allow any sec
tionalism to enter into their efforts for
waterways.
