The Best Food for Workers.

The best food for those who work with hand or brain Is never high priced.
 The best example of this is found in Quaker Oats. It stands at the top among foods that supply nourishment and yigor without taxing the dlges. tlon, and yet 1t is the least expensive food one can eat.
 This great food value and low cost make 1t an ideal food for families who want to get the greatest good from what they eat.
 Laborers, factory or farm hands, fed plentifully on Quaker Oats will work better and with less fatigue than if fed on almost any other kind of food. All of these facts were proved and very interesting information about human foods were gathered by Pro. lessor Fisher of Yale University in 1908. In addition to the regular pack. age Quaker Oats is packed in large sized family packages either with or without china dishes. s

JUST A HINT.
 The inhabitants of Velvet Street are rejoicing that the good road movement is being pushed and are hoping 1t may in q few years have its effect on this street. Nothing has been doLe to the road for several years to amount to anything and the south part, which Is in the town of Trumbull, is q disgrace to the name of road. It is not much better than riding over q tumbled down stone wall and one wonders whether he can keep his seat, he is so tossed about. The north half, which is in the town of Monroe is in better con- dition, but needs looking after badly. It is hoped that the officials of the different towns will not forget there is such a place as Velvet Street and they would also remind the officials that they have net yet found the vel vet side of the rocks in the road.
