breathed a sigh Of relief, but Just then
one of his hands behind him slipped
down over the Wahiawa edge of the

cry of mingled disgust and despair

How often do you eat this foodY

A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection Of
the foods you eat.
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended; but if the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given to
good oatmeal.
AS a matter of fact Great Britain
and Europe come to us for tremendous
quantities of Quaker Oats because it
represents to them perfect food, being
the richest in flavor and best in clean
illness and purity, of all oatmeals.
Americans should eat more Quaker
Oats; the results would soon show
themselves in improved conditions of
health and strength. SO

KEEP BABY'S SKIN CLEAR

Few parents realize how many es-
Unable lives have been embittered
and social and business success pre-
vented by serious skin affections
which so often result from the neglect
of minor eruptions in infancy and
childhood. With but little care and
the use of the proper emollients, baby's
skin and hair may be preserved, puri-
fed and beautifled, minor eruptions
prevented from becoming chronic and
torturing, disfguring rashes, itchings,
irritations and chafings dispelled.
To this end. nothing is SO pure, so
sweet, so speedily effective as the con-
slant use of Cuticura Soap, assisted,
when necessary, by Cuticura Ointment.

IS BEEF KINGS
ARE INDICTED
ARMOUR, SWIFT, MORRIS AND
OTHERS ACCUSED OF
PRICE PLOT.
FOOD KEPT IN COLD STORAGE
YEARS, is TESTIMONY OF
NEW YORK INQUIRY.
Senator Benjamin r. TiIlman, Of South
Carolina, Suffers Stroke Of Par
alysis at Washlngton--1e
May Possibly Recover.

Indictments against 10 directors of
the National Packing Co., otherwise
known as the beef trust" as indivi-
duals, were returned by the grand
jury of Hudson county, New Jersey.
The beef magnates are charged with
conspiring to raise prices by keeping
food in cold storage for protracted pc
RODS, seven years being given in evil
dence as the time during which guam
titles of edibles were held.
The indicted trust magnates are:
j. Ogden Armour, L. E. Swift, Edward
Morris, z. f. Swift, Ira n. Morris,
Arthur Meeker, Edward Tilden, It. j.
Connors, l.. A. Carton, T. Z. Wilson,
c. II. Swift, l.. II. Heyman, Samuel
McRoberts, F. A. Fowler, A. w. Ar
mour.
The voting of these indictments is
believed to be the forerunner of the
finding of more true bills by the Jer-
sey grand jury.
The finding of the true bills was the
sequel to the evidence of DR.. George
%. Mclaughlin, a Jersey City bac
teriologist, who testified that bacteria
developed in meat that had been taken
from cold storage and treated to a
freshening-up process. Experiment.
had proved to his satisfaction, he de
clared, that meat treated in this way
was menacing to the public health.
One of the officers of the Merchants
Refrigerating Co., cold storage con
Germ Of Jersey City, brought before
the grand jury turkey that he said
had been in cold storage for sever
! years. 1t was still. he maintained, 6
| perfectly good turkey, and he would
be glad to have a chance to eat it him
self. This was by way of refuting the
ideas advanced by DR.. Mclaughlin.
1t was proved that the accused di
rectors met and agreed TO keep thing!
in storage until such time as price:
were at the point where it would bC
most profitable to release them.

fire Wednesday morning. The loss

The inmates of the institution,
numbering about 6S, were safely re-

age and enfeebled condition of many
of them much difficulty was expert
enced in getting them out of the
building.
Several aged women who were i'll
in their rooms were carried from the

The home was situated on the

The home is managed by a board

third floor. They noticed the smoke
and flames and gave the alarm. Then
they turned TO and started to save the
aged and infirm inmates, taking out
scores of panicstricken women and
old men. AT the first outbreak of the
fire a panic ensued, but it was sue
