The highest medical authority

Sir James Crichton Browne, Ii. D.-F. RS.

gives the best reasons for eating more
Quaker Scotch Oats

In an article published in the
Youths Companion of Septem-
Der 23rd, 1909, DR.. Browne, the
great me dical authority on
foods, says, about brain and
muscle building
There is one kind of food
that seems to me of marked
value as a food to the brain and
to the whole body throughout
childhood and adolescence
(youth), and that is oatmeal.
"Oats are the most nutritious
of all the cereals, being richer
in fats, organic phosphorus and
lecithins."
He says oatmeal is gaining
ground with the well-to-do of
Great Britain. He speaks of it
as the mainstay of the Scottish
laborer's diet and says it pro-

and the curly haired statesman from
Hilo had to subside.
The motion to adopt the report of the
committee was adopted by a vote Of
twenty to six, thus tabling the Harvey
resolution.
At this iuncture committee from
the senate, headed by Senator Chilling
worth, came in and announced that the
senate was ready to quit.
And then, just as the house was about
ready to adjourn, the resolution of the
fearful Coelho, known as Senate con-
current Resolution 5, came down from
the upper house. The clerk started to
read it, but before he got through, the
Speaker stopped him and remarked that
it seemed very strange to him that this
resolution, which had been adopted by
the senate the day before, had been
held up until the last moment.
Alfonso inquired if it were not true
that a committee from the senate had
come down a few minutes before and
announced that the upper house was
ready to adjourn. The Speaker replied
in the affirmative.
Senatorial Courtesy.
Kaleiopu sprang to his feet and NOV
ed that the resolution be tabled. There
was a chorus of kokuas, and while the
house voted to kill the measure of the
fearful One by tabling it, one of the
senators stood outside the door and
twiddled his fingers at the house with
the end of his thumb at the end of
! his nose.
Kaleiopu introduced a resolution,
which was adopted, allowing the clerk
ten days extra, on full pay, to finish
his work on the journal of the house,
and instructing him to have published
the same number of copies that were
published of the journal or the regular
! session. The resolution also allowed
the clerk one dollar per book-page for
reading proof and making grammatical
and other corrections.

a committee of FIVE to notify the senate
and Governor that the house stood ready
to adjourn. The speaker appointed Ka-

When we had ship subsidy, we had
more ships than any other country in
the world. Today, where are those

eleven. And yet we are asked to sit
here and, for fear of losing those
eleven ships, run the risk of not get
ting 1000. We have eleven ships and
England has over 900. And yet, we
are greater nation, richer nation,
than Great Britain. If we had sub
sidy, we would in decade have a
greater merchant marine than Great
Britain. It's a poor gambler that

ships to gain 1900. We need boats,

the famous Thew case. beginning with
a dinner in the tower room at Madison

insanity, after he has killed the man
who wrecked his happiness.
The unwritten law was justified To
the complete satisfaction of large aL-
dience. which followed the career OF the
heroine and her defender with evident
sympathy. The play deals with phase
Of life that IS not pleasant TO contem-
plate. but presents it very convincinsIy.
The treatment in the rrst act Of the de-
pravity OF a vicious but talented man
has the desired effect Of making that
depravity realistic. repuIsive. and lack

with it. However as the play develops
the heroism Of tine leading character
and his defense Of his wife's name are
emphasized, which. together with their
