Mr. IRVING of Aroostook: Mr..
President. l simply wish to ask if it
would be in order to make a motion
for the consideration of that BILL at the
present time.
The PRESIDENT: The pending mo-
ton is the motion of the Senator from
Cumberland, Mr. Wheeler, that the bill
take its second reading at the present
time. The question may be discussed
upon the motion of the Senator from
Cumberland, Mr. Wheeler, that the
present time be assigned for its second
reading
Mr.. IRVING: Mr. President: 1t would
not be in order tn assign for some future
time?
The PRESIDENT: 1 would be in or
der to move that it be assigned for some
future time.
Mr.. IRVING: Mr.. President, I move
that the consideration of that question
be assigned for Tuesday of next week.
Mr.. MACOMBER of Kennebec: Mr.
President: I have no reason for and do
not desire any undue haste in this mat
ter; but / want to call the attention OF
the Senate to the situation We shall
be in if his matter is postponed until
next Tuesday. Nothing can be done with
reference to the printing of the tax bill
until after this matter is disposed Of.
If we postpone the assignment for sec
ond reading until next Tuesday, l see
no way by which this Legislature can
adjourn next week. Now that is not
matter of much consequence to me; and
I think the friends of this measure want
to be entirely fair. and to give every
body an opportunity to discuss II. IL
has been pretty thoroughly discussed IN
the other branch: and every member un'
derstandS now just how he will vote on
the proposition; and while will not OBJ
iect. if any considerable number of the
Senators want a final vote. my Judgment
is that it will be mistake to postpone
il until next week.
Mr.. OSGOOD of Androscoggin: Mr..
President. / move the previous question
The motion was seconded.
The PRESIDENT: The pending ques'
ton is upon the motion of the Senator
from Aroostook, Mr.. Irving that next

LESS MEAT
Advice Of Family Physician.

Formerly people thought meat
necessary for strength and muscular
vigor.
The man who worked hard was sup
posed to require meat two or three
times a day. Science has found out
differently.
1t is now q common thing for the
family physician to order less meat, as
in the following letter from N. Y
man.
Il had suffered for years with
dyspepsia and nervousness MY
physician advised me to eat less meat
and greasy foods generally | tried
several things. to take the place of my
usual, breakfast of chops, fried pota-
toes. etc, but got no relief until

cereal part of my meals for two years,

benefited my health far more than the
$4,000 worth of medicine | had taken
before.
My wife and children are healthier
than they had been for years. and we
are a very happy family, largely due to
Grape Nuts.
We have been so much benefited
