In an article published in the
Youths Companion of Septem-
Der 23rd, 1909, DR.. Browne, the
great medical authority on
foods, says, about brain and
muscle building
There is one kind of food
that seems to me of marked
value as a food to the brain and
to the whole body throughout
childhood and adolescence
YOUTH, and that is oatmeal.
Oats are the most nutritious
of all the cereals, being richer
in fats. organic phosphorus and
lecithins."
He says oatmeal is gaining
ground with the well-to-do of
Great Britain. He speaks of it
as the mainstay of the Scottish
laborer's diet and says it pro-

good oatmeal such as Quaker
Oats not only furnishes the best
food for the human being, but
eating it strengthens and en-
larges the thyroid gland-this

with the nourishing processes

In conclusion he says
1t seems probable therefore
that the bulk and brawniness of

Problem cf NaVicstion,

A solution OF the problem of navi-
eating streams in which shallow and
deep water are alternately encounter
ed is suggested by Mr.. G. ]. Bartlett
of New Orleans. He proposes the con.
struction of submerging ship, which
is designed to carry two barges when
in deep water, and, on encountering
shallow water will submerge, float the
barges free, and tow them through the
shallower reaches. Each barge is of
1900 tons capacity and their loaded
draft is eight feet. The loaded draft
of the ship is Is feet and in the light
condition she would draw six feet.

CITY HANDS OUT
FAT PLUMS

Some pretty substantial plums
in the contract line were awarded
yesterday afternoon at the city hall.
The Union Iron Works was CIV
en- the contract to supply the 30
inch steel main for the force main
. to be laid from the up-river pump
Fig station to the new reservoir in
lincoln Heights. Their price was
$S7,S02.60, as against $134, 1850
bid by Mcneil Bros. of Pittsburg.
The main is over four miles long,
and the contract calls for the de-
livery of the pipe on the job.
Bids for 10000 barrels of cement
were opened this afternoon by the
board of public works. Some eight
or 10 bids were presented, the fea-
ture of the day being the manner
in which the Union Fuel & Ice Co.
whacked the price of Exshaw, the
cement that entered into the build
ing Of the Mission avenue and
Olive avenue bridges. The price
on Exshaw was cut to $3.50, or 16
cents under the next lowest bid,
$2.75, presented by the coast ce.
ment companies. The contract was
taken under advisement, but it will
be awarded to Exshaw, as the diff
ference in its favor means a clear
saving to the city of $4,000 The
last contract with Exshaw was at
$3.50 on the basis OF 10000 bar
rels, and all of the cement that en-
tered into the Olive and Mission
avenue bridges was bought at this
figure.
The health board and board of
works this afternoon awarded the
contract to the Cadillac Auto Co.
for 30-horse power automobile
ambulance for the use of the isola-
ton hospital to cost $4,000 There
were no other bidders, and the con-
tract went to the Cadillac at the
amount that the city had previous
ly agreed to inves in the ambul-
ance.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE
World, in an editorial, sees a
Roosevelt third term movement
looming. 1t says:
THE Tribune prints a dispatch
from Washington giving details of
a far reaching and shrewdly or
ganized movement which has for
its purpose the nomination of Theo-
dore Roosevelt in the national con-
yf2tion Of 1912
%There is such movement. Mr..
Taft's friends have known about 1t
for months. But it is not far reach

lied. For the most part it is kim
dergarten politics played by a
small coterie of Mr.. Roosevelts in
innate personal friends, abetted by
handful of republican insurgents

For weeks various western
newspapers have been discussing

rical Roosevelt return from Elba,
