GOVERNMENT IS TO DEFEND
Validity of Law Making Initial Carrier
Liable for Damage Is Before
High Court.

Washington.-Argu was begun
Wednesday in the United States SUI
preme court as to the validity OF the
so-called Carmack amendment to the
Hepburn rate law of 1904. The initial
carrier of interstate commerce is not
only made liable by this amendment
for damages which may occur IN
transportation on its own road but
also on all it's connecting lines.
The contest is probably the greatest
of all the legal controversies which
have arisen out of the passage OF the
Hepburn rate law.
Attacking the constitutionality OF
the law at this time are the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad company and the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad COM
pany.
In addition to those claiming dam
ages for shipments over these roads.
Attorney General Wickersham of the
department of justice has come forth
to defend the consitutionality of the
law. From two primary points OF
view the railroads attack the law.

WISE WORDS.
A Physician on Food.

A physician, of Portland. Oregon,
has views about food. He says:
Il have always believed that the
duty of the physician does not cease
with treating the sick, but that we
owe 1t to humanity to teach them how
to protect their health, especially by
hygienic and diet1tlt laws.
With such a feeling as to my duty
take great pleasure in saying to the
public that in my own experience and
also from personal observation | have
found no food equal TO Grape-Nuts,
and that find There is almost no limit
to the great benefits this food will
bring when used in all cases OF sick
ness and convalescence.
ut Is my experience that no physi-
cal condition forbids the use OF Grape
Nuts. To persons in health there IL
nothing so nourishing and acceptable
to the stomach, especially at break
fast, to start the machinery Of the hui
man system on the days work.
''In cases of indigestion / know that
complete breakfast can be made OF
Grape-Nuts and cream and think It is
not advisable to overload the stomach
at the morning meal. / also know the
great value OF Grape-Nuts when the
stomach is too weak to digest other
food.
This is written after an experience
of more than 20 years, treating all
manner of chronic and acute diseases,
and the letter is written voluntarily
on my part without any request for it."
