NJ ASHINGTON.-The millionaires
W of the senate have been pleading
ly requested by a young country girl
of Virginia to donate their aggregated
income for "a hours in order that she
may be enabled to acquire such an
education as will qualify her foe the
profession of teaching school. She

this unusual appeal resides at Volney,

fifteen years old and earnestly seek

Follow this advice.

Quaker Scotch Oats is the best of
all foods; 1t is also the cheapest. When
such men as Prof. Fisher of Yale Uni
versity and Sir James Crichton Browne,
LL.D-F.R.S. of London spend the
best parts of their lives in studying
the great question of the nourishing
and strengthening qualities of differ
ent foods, it is certain that their advice
Is absolutely safe to follow.
Professor Fisher found in his ex-
periments for testing the strength and
endurance of athletes that the meat
eaters were exhausted long before the
men who were fed on such food as
Quaker Scotch Oats. The powers of
endurance of the non-meat eaters were
about eight times those Of the meat
eaters.
Sir James Crichton Browne says
eat more oatmeal, eat plenty of it and
eat it frequently. SO
Buy it in the regular package, or In her
m~etically sealed tins for hot climates.

They made their way to the HIPPO
lite Egg company of st. Louis, Mo.
There the shells were stripped from
them and Plymouth Rocks and Leg
horns were as one in five-gallon cans.
They were preserved in boric acid
When they yer shipped to Thomas

the fall of 1909, the government OBJ
tanned al order to seize them. The
court held that the boric acid was a
d~eleterious ingredient.
The egg company asked the SUI
preme court to dispose of the case
at once. One of the reasons for this
request is that this is the first case
in the Supreme court which involves
the question Of the jurisdiction of a
court under the national pure
food law and the extent to which the
law applies to an article of food latter
it has been shipped into a state.'

one of the most retiring and unob-
trusive members of the lower house OF

as "Tombigbee" Gambler because once
more than a year ago, he begged the
house not to forget that majestic
stream, the Tombigbee river Of Mis-

Mr.. Gambler, according to the con-

years moderator of the TishOmingo

Therefore, since his appearance in the

has eschewed the theater. That form
