BOY TO MANAGER.
Belvidere Brooks Wins High Place
In Western Union.

In Western Union.
New York, Feb. 16.-Belvidere
Brooks was appointed general mana
ger Of the Western Union Telegraph
Company at the meeting Of the board
Of directors today.
He has been the general superin-
tendent Of the Eastern division.
Forty years ago he started in with
the company as the only messenger
boy In the sage brush town Of Neva-
sofa, Texas. where he was born His
appointment today is intended to free
the hands Of President r. c. Clowry
from the mass Of administrative de-
tail and permit him to devote his
time to working out the broad, pro-
gressive policies Of the new admins
tration.
Mr.. Brooks only worked as an H.
year-old messenger boy for the first
four months Of 1871. BY that time
he had learned to handle key, and

worked In Ell Paso, Galveston and
Denver before he was ordered to the
East. He was so years old few
days ago. His home is at 1875 River
side Drive. and he has four sons, three
of them students at Williams College,
and one married.

II was paid IS a month when I be-
gan as a messenger boy. but 1 felt in
those days that the whole weight of
the company Was on my shoulders. L

spur / know. The same opportunity
Is open to any boy in business, and If
he pays attention to his work he

Van Camps is
Nothing But Milk

Van Camps is simply rich Holsten
milk, with two-thrds the water evapor-
ated.
Nothing whatever is added--no sugar,
no starch, no preservative.
Don't confuse Van Camps with con
densed milk, which is half sugar-a milk
that you can't use in cooking
Van Camps comes to you just as it
comes from the COW, less part OF the
water.
Analysis shows about 80 per cent Of
solids, 9 per cent butter fat
Only the germs are lacking-the dan
gers, the impurities, the infections.

Van Camps Milk
Six Cents Per Quart

One pint OF Van Camps. when you re-
place the water, makes about three pints
OF rich milk.
The cost OF such milk, ii you buy Van
Camps by the case, is about Sin cents per
quart.
Van Camps when it comes to you, IS
as thick as thick cream. So thick that YOU
add one part water Tor coffee. Yet it
costs half what cream costs.
Then you have no waste-no shortage
You open the cans as YOU need them.
So. the finest milk in America is also
the cheapest milk Pure milk costs less
than impure-rich milk less than hall
milk
Do you know any reason for paying
more for raw milk than you must pay
for Van Camps.
