When you open the can, and replace the

Condensed milk may be also evaporated.
But each can contains about as much sugar
as milk
Let US figure out what this means
The large can Of Van Camps contains six
teen ounces of evaporated milk That means
a full pint-a full pound.
If you buy Van Camps by the case, and
replace the water which we take out, you get
a rich milk at about six cents per quart.
The l0-cent cans Of condensed milk contain
only u 0unces-four ounces less than Van
Camps. And about half the condensed milk
is sugar, for which you are psying more than
twice what sugar is worth.

Unfit for Cooking

That sugar in condensed milk makes it TN
fit for cooking. So it serves only table uses.
Van Camps on the table serves the same
purpose, and il goes twice as far because
it contains twice the milk

Il tell you in the name and on behalf
of the Liberal party" Mr.. Asquith pro-
Ceeded, I'VE have at this moment laid
upon us a single task, a task that DOM
mates and transcends, because ii EN-
braces and involves every great beneti-
cent social and political change upon
which our hearts are set. That task IS
to vindicate and establish upon an un-
shakable foundation the principle OF
republican government"
Referring to the education and licens-
ing bills, the premier said that the gov
ernment stood in the main upon the
principles of the bills that the house of
lords rejected.
Upon the topic OF woman suffrage.
Mr.. Asuuith said his views were well
known. He had no reason to alter
them, despite the suicidal eXcesses of a
small section of the advocates for such
a change.
Mr. Asouith tourned his attention to
ireland, which, he said, had been for
tunate for once because the measure
sent up in her behalf did not come vio-
lently athwart prejudices of the house
of lords.
Speaking last year before my ac-
cession to the premiership" Mr. As
auth continued, Il described the irish
policy as the one undeniable failure of
British craftsmanship. / repeat tonight
what / said then, and on behalf of my
colleagues, and l believe on behalf of
my party 1 relterate that this is a
problem to be solved only in one way
by a policy which, while explicitly safe
guarding the supreme indivisible au-
thority of the imperial parliament, can
set up in ireland n system of full self
government as regards purely Irish af-
fairs.
There is not and cannot be any
question Of separation. There is not
and cannot be any question Of rivalry
or competing for supremacy, That is
the Liberal policy. For reasons which
we believe to have been adequate, the
present parliament was disabled in ad-
vance from proposing any such solu-
ton. but in the new house the Liberal
government, at the head of a Liberal
majority, WILDE, in this matter entirely
free"
He personally underestimated the
odds against which he had to contend,
but the government was unanimous In
demanding the absolute control of the
finances by the house of commons.
Mr.. Asduith was not alone in giving
the people their first real touch of the
campaign, for Arthur ]. RalfOur. leader
of the opposition in the house of COM
mons. made a plea in a manifesto.

ASQUITH WOULD
FREE OLD erin
British Statesman Declares Before
Large Crowd Liberal Party Will
Accede to Demands If Re-
turned to Power
Associated Pressl


LONDON, Dec. 10.-At a monster
meeting tonight in Albert hall, Her
bert Henry Asquith, British premier,
laid down the policy on which the
Liberal government is appealing to the
country. He repeated what had been
said by other ministers-that, if it
We're returned to power the govern
ment would demand the limitation Of
the power of the house of lords-and
he pledged that the Liberal party
would grant self-goyernment to Ire
land.
The meeting was marked by great
enthusiasm of the audience entirely
composed OF men, women having been
denied admission in the fear that there
might be counter demonstrations by
suffragettes.
Every corner of the hall had been
searched today for women, and a
small band was routed out. But they
managed to get two male supporters
into the meeting who interrupted Mr..
Asuuith momentaroily with cries of
votes for women" Then they We're
promptly elected.
Mr.. Asquith pointed out that, just
four years ago, Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman, then prime minister, had
outlined in Albert hall the policy Of a
new Liberal government which in
cluded many reforms.
Representatives OF the people in the
house of commons had labored faith
fully to carry into law the measure
promised, but their will had been nulli-
fed and as a fitting climax the sup
plies which the house of commons had
voted had been stopped b ythe house
of lords
Therefore, the house Of commons was
now on the eve of another dissolution.
and it had fallen to his lot to take
nm the burden. The last time, he said,
the government had reckOnCd without
their host, but it was not going to
make that mistake again.

ENLIGHTENMENT COVERS
PERIOD OF THREE YEARS
Puzzling Features Surround Pecula-
tons from Treasury of Daughters
of American Revolution

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Defalca-
tions amounting to several thousand
dollars from the Daughters of the
American Revolution by q clerk en-
ployed in the national headquarters Of
the society here, were made known
today from information which leaked
out quietly.
The officers Of the society have de-
cided not to prosecute the woman who
confessed to the peculatiOns, which
cover a period Of at least three years,
The clerk however, was dismissed.
What has become OF the money taken
is a matter which is puzzling the so
cietys officers. The woman who con-
fessed the embezzlemcnt was pos
sessed Of an income sufficient to make
her Independent, it is said, aside from
an ample salary she drew from the
office She lived quietly and without
any outward display of even such
luxury as she could have afforded
with her salary and income.

BY QUEER CASE
EIeHT-YEAR-oLD CHILD CANNOT
BE TRACED
Circulars Are. Sent Broadcast and
Many False Clews Run Down
in Effort to Solve the
Mystery
LAssoclated Preset

LOUISVILLE. Ky, Dec. 10.-Though
story after story has been investigated
by the Louisville police, the where
abouts of S-year-old Alma Kellner, who
disappeared Wednesday morning, re-
mains unknown.
f. L. Kellner, father of the girl, said
today that he believed his daughter
was looking at toys in the shop Win
dows on Walnut street when some
body nailed her" He said that the
child made friends with strangers in a
quick, responsive way, and that after
she had attended church Wednesday
she wandered among the Christmas dis
plays.
Meanwhile children resembling Alma
Kellner have been reported to have
been seen forced into covered carriages
by Yeiled women, roughly dressed men
and the like; observed walking up and
down street car aisles; hurried into
Tell City, Ind, where an alleged dis
gruntled relative of the Kellners is sup
posed to live; while another story is
that Alma is mistaken for her 11-year-
old aunt Meta Keller, an heiress whom
Alma resembles.
Circulars Distributed
The city has distributed 500 circulars
offering an unspecihed reward for the
recovery of the child, and the entire
police force Of Louisville and Southern
Indiana are busy on the case.
Frank Fehr, millionaire brewer and
uncle of the missing child, said today
that F. L. Kellner was not in position
to pay a ransom for Alma, although
+. l. Kellner, ST. had been a rich man.
The family positively denied a story
circulated last night that a meeting
between Mrs. Kellner and the alleged
kldnapers had been arranged for this
morning.
one of these mysterious women in
black" who usually figure in cases of
the Kellner kind was discovered by
reporters today near the home of Mrs.
T. l.. Kelner, sr., and her actions eX-
cited suspicion.
The police, who have searched in
vain every vault stream, empty house
and alley in a radius of half a mile of
the Kellner home, devoted their atten-
tion late today to watching this woman
and to running down the story of an
aged Russian peddler who said he had
seen in Southern Indiana today girl
who might have been Alma travelling
toward Madison, Ind, and Cincinnati
with a man in a wagon.
