Italian Cavalry Riders-This film
shows the remarkable feats perform
ed by the crack calvary riders of
Italy; the thrilling scenes where the
horses charge up and down almost
perpendicular cliffs, throwing the
riders over their heads, are very
realistic, and no one should overlook
the opportunity to see them

Council Meeting


The regular meeting Of the common
council viii be held tomorrow night.
Very little business Of Importance is
on the table for consideration. An
ordinance requiring owners Of dogs
to have a chain attached to them will
probably be introduced, but will
probably not pass at tomorrow's
meeting. An ordinance regulating sa-
looms covering all the provisions in
the Prael and Belland ordinances, but
restricting the districts, and amending
section l3 so as to permit saloons to
remain open until 2 o'clock on Sun
day morning, but closed after that
hour will come up for final passage

Think of crisp, brown, nut-like

tisement out of Il duel fought on a
wet day by insisting upon holding his
umbrella UP with one hand while ne
fred his pistol with the other, He was
willing, he couragcously said, to take
the risk of being shot, but he must be
excused from taking the greater risk
of catching cold.
The duel which Benjamin Constant,
who suffered from gout, fought sitting
in Bath chair may have been Of
somewhat similar character. Honor in
that case was declared to be satisfied

These are the foods invented by Prof. An
derson. and this is his curious process
The whole wheat or rice kernels are put into
sealed guns Then the guns are revolved Tor
sixty minutes in heat of $50 degrees.
That fierce heat turns the moisture IN the
grain to steam, and the pressure becomes tre-
mendous.

Pulled Wheat-10c Puffed Rice-15c

Then the guns are unsealed, and the steam
explodes. Instantly every starch granule is
blasted into a myriad particles.
The kernels Of grain are expanded eight
times. Yet the coats are unbroken, the shapes
are unaltered. We have simply the magnitied
grain.
One package will tell you why people de-
light in them. Order it now.

Last month, Pufed Wheat and
Pulled Rice were served for seven
teen million meals.
Did you ever know foods to come
SO quickly into such popular favorp
Yet there are many still who don't
use them-many who have never tried
them. They simply don't know
what they miss.
One taste of these crisp, gigantic
grains makes one convert forever.
They are irresistible foods.
