Care In Preparing Food.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value OF food is meas
ured largely by its purity; the re-
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi-
nenuy as a perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment Of these laws as IL
could possibly be is Quaker Oats:
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength OF muscle
and brain. The best and cheapest OF
all foods. The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufacturer Of oatmeal

Makes Attack on Democratic Party
and Judge Mann.

w. p. Kent. Republican candidate far
governor, made his first speech of tho
campaign at Woodstock Monday.
lie asserted that it was not his inten-
tlon 10 conduct mud-slinging cam
paign. A plea was made to young men
to enter the Republican ranks. The pri-
mary plan Of the Democratic party was
given jolt when he said that only the
rich could get into the "ofiiceholders'
trust. He charged the Democrats with
extravaganza in running the State GOV
ernment, saying that offices had been
made for Democrats and that the sala-
ries had been increased more than 100
per cent in five years lie claimed that
IN doing this the new State constitution
had been violated.
Mr.. Kent pledged himself to give bet
Ter roads. after criticising the Demo
crate plan. He promised to look out
lor the veterans. saying that the pen
slons should be larger. He attacked the
present public school system, saving il
was being used as side issue TO the
Democratic political machine. and that
scarcely teacher could get a lob with
out political pull. He promised. if elect
CO. he would equalize taxes, govern the
oIate more economically, and put an
end TO alleged Democratic extravagance.
lie went after his opponent, Judge
Mann. He said the judge could plav two
tunes at once and get on both sides Of
a question, and that his record as a
public man would be amatter of honest
analysis If he would only stand still
long enough TO be photographed.
