ROSY AND PLUMP
Good Health from Right Food.

'It's not q new food to me-" re-
marked a Va man, in speaking Of
Grape-Nuts.
About twelve months ago my wife
was in very bad health, could not keep
anything on her stomach. The Doctor
recommended milk half water but it
was not sufficiently nourishing.
"a friend of mine told me one day
to try Grape-Nuts and cream. The re-
suit was really marvellous. My wife
soon regained her usual strength and
to-day is as rosy and plump as when
a girl of sixteen.
These are plain facts and nothing
1 could say in praise of Grape-Nuts
would ezaggerate in the least the
value of this great food"

The Kansas State Child Labor COM
mittee has completed the drafting of
a bill prohibiting the employment of
children under fourteen years in fac
tories, work shops, theaters, eleva-
tors, packing houses and mines, and
the bill will be introduced at the pres
ent session Of the legislature. The
executive board of the committee held
a meeting at the state house and fin
ally agreed upon the provisions of the
bill.
The proposed law will prohibit the
employment of all children under four
teen years in any business during the
regular school term. This will apply
to offices, telegraph service and other
businesses in which children are given
employment. They will be permitted
TO work in such places during the va
cation season. However, it will be
iron clad the year around with refer
ence to theaters, packing houses, e1e-
vators, factories, work shops and
mines.

Oil Department Melted $4,000.

During the year just ended the state
oil inspection department, under In
spector L. T. Hussey, inspected a
total of 220, III barrels of kerosene and
161, SIS barrels of gasoline. This is
shown by the annual report filed with
the governor by Mr.. Hussey. The re-
port shows that the department re-
ceived a total of S38,234.09 in inspec-
ton fees and that after deducting all
expenses there was s2O,21O.61 left to
help pay the expenses of running the
state government
The report shows that there are
twenty Independent oil refineries in
the state. They turned out total of
57,O41 barrels of kerosene and 23,574
barrels Of gasoline. This is 81 per
cent of the total output of the refin-
cries Of the state and shows that
there has been an increase of three
per cent in the output of Independent
refineries in the last year. Mr.. Hus-
sey recommends that he legislature
fix a definite specific gravity for all
gasoline and that provision be made
to prevent the sale of gasoline be
low this standard.

HONOR TO CALL HIM FRIEND.
Medical Practitioner Ranks High in
Scale of Humanity.

To know a medical practitioner is
to know one who is superior to the
average educated man. Few profes-
sfons, perhaps no other, develop so
much Of character. The occupation Of
healing and the necessity of behold
ing men and women and children at
their worst, irritable, unreasoning, and
often cOwardly, has not, fortunately,
caused his own degeneration. His ca
pacity for thoughtfulness is trained to
keenness, his selfishness, where there
is any, is shrewdIy hidden, and the
human instinct for enjoyment is none
the less in him because Of his knowl-
edge Of its reactions.
That the doctors expectation of life
is short is the natural result of his
following a calling that makes unnat-
ural demands Only the more fortu-
nate specialists have time that they
can call their own. The doctors work
is always exacting, often discouraging,
and invariably draws without mercy
on his nervous energy.-Binghamton

In addition to this, he will ask that
county attorneys be given greater in

Carnegie foundation for aged college
workers an opportunity to emphasize
that its pensioners are not, the recipi-

promptly voted the highest annuity
possible under the rules, and in this
action DR.. Eliot promptly acquiesced,
although the compensation he has re-
ceived during his long service has
lifted him above the risk of indulgence
in his old age. 1t is probable that one
OF the motives influencing DR.. Eliot in

set an example that might release
