There is one food that stands without
rival for such a test Quaker Oats is

organs than any other food You'll feel
well and strong at the end of the time
Try it. Don't stop eating other things,
but eat more Quaker Oats and you'll
notice the gain in strength.
The regular size package of Quaker
Oats sells at l0c, the large family size

LIBERTY BELL PROPOSITION.
To Stop Its Crack and Make Bell OF as

Good Sound as In 1776.
Shall the crack in the Liberty bell
be repaired? Representatives of an
old world firm of bellmakers have
laid before Mayor Reyburn Of Phila-
delphia proposition to make the re-
pairs so that once again the people
may hear peals from the bell which
announced to new nation its indie
pendence, They have a secret process,
but are willing to enter bonds in any
amount and to do the work without
taking the relic from Independence
hall.
Mayor Reyburn is anxious that the
people shall express their opinion, but
his personal view is that there may be
a general sentiment against repairs.
Said he the other day: There Is a
historic sentiment connected with the
crack itself. The bell cracked at the
funeral services of Chief Justice Mar
SHALL and every sChoolboy who has
seen a picture Of the bell knows of
that crack. Still, it might be of inter
est to the people to hear the Liberty
bell peal exactly as it did in 17I6, and
the bellmakerS assure me that the re
pairs they will make will not make the
slightest difference in the tone Of the
bell"
