Care in Preparing Food.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas
ured largely by its purity; the re-
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi'
nently as a perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as 1t
could possibly be is Quaker oats;
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle
and brain. The best and cheapest OF
all foods The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufacturer of oatmeal
that has satisfactorily solved the prob
lem of removing the husks and black
specks which are so annoying when
other brands are eaten. If you are
convenient to the store buy the reg
ular size packages; if not near the
store, buy the large size family pack
ages; if in hot climate, the hermet-
ically sealed tins.

Pests Worried by Pests.

Since the Dutch philosopher Leu
wenhoek discovered that the pupa OF
the flea was sometimes preyed on by
the larvae of mite, it has been well
known that various small insects have
their external parasites. And re-
cent communication to the Complies
Rendus of the Biological society of
Paris by NJ. Bruyant, shows that many
mosquitoes carry about mites in the
larval stage. These described belong
to four different genera. They prob
ably feed on the integumentary
structures of the mosquitoes.

ON TIER

The complete success of the new
fuel while on the 2650-mile public
test and the advantages gained
through its use were we'll described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion of
the tour:
"a feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero-
sene, or coal oil, as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 2650-mile
journey, and all claims made in its
behalf were fully proven. First of
all, as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gaso-
line. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per-
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place, without
draining it's fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly,
kerosene could be purchased at what
ever part of the route was most con-
venient, and not once during the trip
through the ten States of the Middle
West was there found grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply obtainable. Finally, the

SENSE ABOUT FOOD
Facts About Food Worth Knowing.

1t is a serious question sometimes to
know just what to eat when a per-
sons stomach is out of order and most
foods cause trouble.
Grape Nuts food can be taken at any
time with the certainty that it will
digest. Actual experience of people is
valuable to anyone interested in foods.

four years, ever since an attack of ty-

MY husband also had an experience
with Grape-Nuts. He was very weak
and sickly in the spring. Could not
attend to his work. He was under
the doctors care but medicine did not
seem to do him any good until he be-
gan to leave off ordinary food and use
Grape-NLts. 1t was positively surpris-
ing to see the change in him. He grew
better right off, and naturally he had
none but words of praise for Grape
Nuts.
Our boy thinks he cannot eat a
meal without Grape-Nuts, and he
learns so fast at school that his teach
er and other scholars comment on it.

the great nourishing elements in

The most interesting announce
ment ever made in connection with
the automobile industry was I'M
doubtedly that made a month or two
ago to the effect that the new models
of the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene, or coal oil, instead of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
nized that the use of the new fuel
would add materially to the advan-
tages which the White already pos
sessed over other types of cars.
There were some people, however,
who were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success, and, therefore, the
makers of the White Car, the White
Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, deter
mined to make a public demonstra-
ton of the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint of the public,
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First of all, the dis
lance covered on the Glidden Tour,
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient to
bring out any weaknesses, if such had
existed. Still more important was
the fact that the car was at all times
while on the road under the supervi-
sion of observers named by those
who entered other contrasting cars.
Therefore, it would have been impos-
sible for the driver of the White to
have even frightened a bolt without
the fact being noted and penalty in
fiicted At night the cars were
guarded by Pinkerton detectives and
could not be approached by any one.

MURDER IN A GREAT CITY
II Seems Easy for Assassin to Escape
After Committing Foul
Deed.

Within a few weeks at least four
atrocious murders have been commit
ted in New York, and in no case have
the police been able to intercept the
criminals. To a degree this reflects
upon the intelligence of the detective
force, yet in justice to the police the
difficulties confronting those who set
should not be overlooked. 1t is easy
to clamor against the police when ii
murder mystery remains unsolved, but
it is well to remember that all great
centers of population have their mys-
terious crimes and their unraveled
pean cities, where the science of de-
lection has been brought to its high
est estate, as it is of cities in the
United States.
There are innumerable holes and
corners nthis huge metropolis where
taking of life can be accomplished
without the cries of the victim being
heard by any human being. The ease
with which man choked and beat
a woman to death in a dark and OBJ
scure hallway on East Thirteenth
street the other night and then coolly
slipped away from the neighborhood
of his crime is typical of the facilities
the city offers to criminals of the
worst sort. There are hundreds of
tenements on the east and west sides
of Manhattan where the sounds of
ia IL scuff1e would attract no more
than passing attention from the
people accustomed to drunken brawls
and family squabbles.
And not more difficult than the COM
mission of crime is the escape of the
criminal after crime has been com
mitted. Give to a murderer a reason
able start and there is no place in the
world where he can so readily cover
up his tracks and escape notice as in
a city of 100000 people. And this is
more especially true in those cases
where a fugitive can count on the
assistance of friends to help in battling
the police, an assistance too common
ly rendered in the foreign quarters
of New York-Brooklyn Eagle.
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1909-09-10

amount of fuel used on the trip
showed that kerosene is at least
fifteen per cent. more efficient, gallon
for gallon, than gasoline. The car in
other respects made most creditable
showing, and there was the usual riv-
airy among the observers to be as
signed to the White so that they
could ride with the maximum of COM
fort. The only adjustments or re-
pairs charged against the car during
the long trip were tightening lubri-
Gator pipe and wiring a damaged mud
guard. These penalties were not in
fiicted until more than 1000 miles
had been completed with an absolute
ly perfect score"
A particularly interesting feature
of the new White Steamer is that
either kerosene or gasoline may be
used as fuel. The necessary adjust
ments so that the fuel may be changed
from kerosene to gasoline, or vice
versa, may be made in couple of
minutes; but so completely successful
has kerosene proved to be, that it is
not believed that any purchasers will
care to use gasoline.
The White Company report that
the demand for their new steam cars
both the $20O0-model and the
O0-model-exceed their most san
guine expectations. 1t is evident that
the combination of steam-the pow
er which everyone understands and
has confidence in-with kerosene
the fuel which everyone has on hand
and can handle without any danger
is thoroughly appreciated by
up-to-date purchasers of automo-
biles.

vainly Seek Health in Southwest.

According to a statement of the Ma
ii al Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis fully 7,1S0
persons hopelessly diseased with
tuberculosis annually come to die in
the states of California, Arizona, New
Mexico, Texas and Colorado, most of
them by order of their physicians The
statement, which is based upon the
testimony of well-known experts, and
all valuable statistics, shows that at
least so per cent. of those who go to
the southwest every year for their
health are so far advanced in their
disease that they cannot hope for a
cure in any climate, under any cir
cumstances. More than this, at least
60 per cent. of these advanced cases
are so poor that they have not suffi-
cient means to provide for the proper
necessaries of life, which means that
4,315 consumptives are either starved
to death or forced to accept charitable
relief every year.
