ROSY AND PLUMP
Good Health from Right Food.

TITS not a new food to me-" re-
marked 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 1t
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 Eer usual strength and
today is as rosy and plump as when
a girl of sixteen.
These are nlain facts and nothing
I could say in praise of Grape-Nuts
would exaggerate in the least the
value OF this great food"

Valuable conch Shells.

The conch shell is highly priced In
India. In many of the temples they
are blown daily to scare away the ma
lignant spirits while the god receives
his daily meal. A conch with the
spiral twistings to the right instead of
to the left is supposed to be worth
its weight in gold. Some years ago a
conch of that description was offered
for sale in Calcutta, with a reserve
price of lakh of rupees placed on it.
1t was eventually bought in for $4,000.

Take Warning. eirIsl

Cupid is always painted with wings,
perhaps to show how easily he can fly
away. Mnay women forget this once
they are married, and the man who
fell in love with his wife, because, be-
fore marriage, she always looked so
dainty and well groomed, is sometimes
woefully disappointed to find how lit
tie care she ,akes over her appearance
for ordinary, everyday occasions after
wards.
1t. isn't fair to any husband to let
oneself go in this way. If you do,
and find that very soon Cupid flies out
at the window, you will have only
yourself to blame.-Home Chat.

Through the pardoning power. life
and death ara in his hands. Though
the three departments are of like dig
nifty and Importance the authority of
the others is divided equally among
many men. The chief executive
stands as the single embodiment of
the active power which, by happy
idealization, the people respect none
the less though they themselves create
and grant it. They realize that the
consent of the governed, notwith-
standing all the restraints it imposes,
really magnifies and ennobles the au-
thority it confers and makes him who
governs in their name the grandest
and most powerful of all magistrates.
So, after the simple act by which
their sovereignty is directly exerted
at long intervals, which each citizen
performs in a moment and all in a
day, 1t is natural that they should look
for some expression from him whom
they have invested with this power
which, during the term fixed for it,
they cannot recall
Their choice implies that they be-
lieved him sincere in the views and
purpose he expressed when he sought
their confidence, but do these look the
same TO him in the cold light of Off
cial responsibility? Does he realize
the nature and scope of the obligation
he is assuming? Does he understand
that the people do not rule by votes
alone, but through watchfulness OF
public affairs. which neither conduct
nor motive can long escape? Has he

JUDSON HARMON
TALKS TO 0H|OANS
HE PRESENTS SOME OF HIS IDEAS
IN HIS INAUGURAL
ADDRESS.
ASKS SUPPORT OF CITIZENS
y Promises that He Will Not conscicn-
tiousIy swerVe from the True
Course as He Sees 1t
Wants to be Faithful

Like all customs which have long
prevailed, that which requires an in
augural address from the chief execu-
tive Is founded on sound reasons.
Laws enacted and judgments rendered
by the other two departments of the
government depend on the executive
for enforcement. So he has at his
command, for this purpose. the entire
force of the state whose known readi-
ness to respond, though it is seldom
called into action, is the sanction OF
public authority
Because the executive power has al
ways been the instrument by which
oppression was practised on the citi-
zen, the long struggle for individual
liberty was chiefly to reduce and re-
strain that power. 1t was separated
from the authority to make laws and
from the right to construe and apply
them to private affairs 1t was made
dependent on the people for means.
1t was entrusted only to man chosen
for limited term to act as a public
agent and not as a ruler in his own
right.
In spite of all this the chief magis.
trate still holds everywhere the fore,
most place in popular interest and con.
cern. Though changed in character
as well as reduced in the scope and
limited in the exercise of his. powers
he continues to WELD the force which
makes government effective and
against which individuals are power
less. He commands the military
