been transferred from the Senate con-
tingent fluid; the presidents salary
had been raised and also all judicial
salaries. The aggregate addition to
compensation for judges is 1928, 500.

Try This in November.

Thousands upon thousands of fam. lilies who have not been regular eaters of Quaker Scotch Oats will begin on the first day of November and eat Quaker Scotch Oats once or twice every day for thirty days of this month; the result in good health and more strength and vigor will mean that every other month in the year will find them doing the same thing.
 Try it! Serve Quaker Scotch Oats plentifully and frequently for the thirty days of November and leave off a cor responding amount of meat and greasy foods. You'll get more health, more vigor and strength than you ever got in thirty days of any other kind of eating.
 While you are trying this see that the children get full share.

The Steady Man,

We'd like to write little rhyme about the steady man, who keeps on begging all the time and does the best he can; the man who early goes to work and doesn't get home till late; nor ever try to shirk in order to be great. There are some fellows who will try to do their business tricks and have a finger in the pie of city politics; they try to put on lots of style and play a. heavy role, and in a little bit O while you find them in a hole. I like the man of steady pace, his system l admire; he has no wild desire to place more irons in the fire! Los Angeles Express.
