Utterly Sterile

Van Camps Milk is free from germs-absolute-

each drop of raw milk, there isn't one in gallon
of this.
Think what that means-no chance of infec-

avoided pasteurized milk--the only sort safe

Paper Bags Is that it saves time and
housewife doesn't have
to keep looking at the food from time
to time as it is cooking to see if every

the food in the oven, shuts the door

Over the Project.

Col. Richie Made Address Before Com

Col G. S. Richie, an engineer well
up in government circles, and A. G.
Miller of Des Moines, man who has
given much study to the question OF
river navigation in Iowa, came to
Keokuk today at the invitation of
Engineer Hugh l.. Cooper of the Mis-
sissippi River Power Company, and
spent the day seeing the dam. Col.
Richie now has headquarters in De-
troit Several years ago he was sta
toned at Rock Island and was in
charge of the Mississippi river from
ST. Louis to st. Paul. He Is also the
government engineer in charge of the
Des Moines river survey.

Moines river at it's lowest stage to
carry 100000 tons of freight If the
proper means is adopted in preparing

Cost Less Than $4,000, 600.

The system of making the river
nayigable as outlined by COL Richie
to the federal government in his re-
port, includes two plans. One of these
is to build twenty-three dams between
st. Francisville and Des Moines at
an approximate cost of s10,S75.000 to
the government. Six foot depth with
"a provision in the locks to carry nine
feet and thus protect against floods,
is also included in this plan. This
will entail the donation by those bene-
flied, of overflow lands, etc. The other
plan reduces the number of dams to
seventeen to develop the water power.
This plan reduces the expense to the
government about 100000 and
makes the power companies pay for
the land overlooked. 1t is expected
that the report of the engineer will go
forward within week or two and that
before it gets through the various o.

reaching congress, that it will be three

WILSON ARRIVES
 IN WASHINGTON

Washington June Son his way horne from an extended trip through the west and south, Gov. Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey arrived here tonight from Columbia, S. C., to re- main until tomorrow afternoon, when he will go to Trenton. The governor had several callers tonight and 1t Is probable there will be some important conferences tomorrow with democratic statesmen. He commended the action of the democratic caucus on the wool schedule and said it was a step in the right direction.
 From his observations in the west, lie said, he believed both democrats and republicans held party ties lightly. There was trend in both strongly to- ward progressivism, he thought, and a demand for direct legislation as a means of getting the government back into the people hands.
 Of the south, Gov. Woodrow Wilson with enthusiasm commented that the only trouble with the south was in keeping pace with it, owing to its rapid advancement.

REBEL ARMY WILL VISIT MEXICO CITY 5000 Men Marching to Take Part in Welcome to
 MaderO

Mexico City, June 3.-Under the com- mand of M Asunzolo, some 5000 men or the Army of Liberation are expected to arrive at the outskirts of the capital tomorrow. Ostensibly they are being brought here from Cuernavaca for the purpose of assisting the federals in main taining order upon the arrival of Fran cisco I. Madero, but if they had not this excuse doubtless another would be found, for the troops in the south are determined to have a part in the festivities attendant upon the coming of the ex-chief of tho rebels For months they have been under going the hardships of campaign where they were denied even those conveniences given the government troops. With the capital only few miles away the tempta- ton to pay it a visit has been so great that the commanders are said to have had some trouble in holding them in their captured garrisons.
 The determination to bring them to the city was reached this morning after conference between Alfredo Robles Do-

studied the question of size in relation to success, they have.
 "When a big man succeeds he succeeds in spite of his inches, not because or
 thenl," he said, discussing the subject with the Daily Mirror.
 ',It must have struck many people that the big men of the world have been-and and Lord Roberts are the names of three short men which occur to one at once. Now. there is a perfectly sound medical explanation for this.
 For all practical purposes the small man has the same sized heart lungs and brain as the big man, or at least, to speak more accurately, the vital organs, all though they are actually larger the larger the body, do not increase in size in any thing like proportion
 For instance, a 5-foot man has heart weighing about ten and one-half ounces, a 6-foot mans heart weighs barely F ounces, whereas in proportion it should weigh something over 12ls ounces. Pro nortionately the taller man has less heart power. Yet his heart has to do the harder work It has to raise the blood higher. The result of this is frequently seen In everyday life. Tasks that tire out a big man and leave him limp are less likely to have the same effect upon a small man. The latter has a greater capacity for sus- tained energy because he has a propor- tionately greater heart power
 "It should also be remembered that the little man scores in having less bulk to carry about. That is why short men so frequently excel in athletics"

GENERAL DIAz
 REACHES HAVANA Prominent Citizens Give Warm Reception to the
 Aged Fugitive

Havana, June 3-The steamship Ypiranga. which sailed from Vera Cruz June l. having on board Gen. Porfirio Diaz, former President of Mexico, ar lived here this evening, anchoring off the customs house,
 The Ypiranga was quickly surrounded by a great fleet of tugs, launches and harbor boats, bearing a throng of prominent Cubans and representatives of the foreign missions desirous of pay irg their respects to the distinguished visitor. General Diaz. his wife, and the members of his party were grouped on the captains bridge as the ship entered, exchanging salutations with those on the fotilla, who, however, were unable to go aboard the Ypiranga until the health and customs officers had completed their inspection.
 The Associated Press correspondent found General Diaz still in bridge when ident appeared stalwart and seemed to be in excellent health. The generals secretary explained that General Dlaz vas compelled to decline an interview to make any statement in view of the delicacy of the situation. He added that the former President was in good phys ioal health and that his condition had been much improved by the fine voy- age and complete rest. He had de- cided not to land in Havana.
 The Diaz party remained in the of ficers' quarters for the most part dur ing the trip, sometimes going to the bridge. The men only descended for a brief promenade on the main deck last
 aT1if fEa lt ing.
 Among those who boarded the vessel were John B. Jackson the United States minister; J. F. Godoy, Mexican min ister; Senor Pasalados, the presidential secretary, representing Gomez; Chan celJor Patterson of the Cuban army and navy and of various Spanish social social and commercial organizations. They were accompanied by scores of women bearing large bouquets and bas- kets of flowers.
 The former President received the visitors on the bridge, the general be- ing visibly affected by the warmth of his welcome. Darkness cut the reception short and immediately afterward mem bers of the Diaz party retired to their private apartments.
 All who were admitted to the pres ence of the general were struck by his vigorous appearance, which was totally at variance with the reports that he was greatly shaken and en- foebled. The former President con vcrsed animatedly with Minister Jack son and the other diplomats, apparently much pleased at the meeting and ex- pressed regret at the circumstances which made it impossible for him to remain in Havana even for a brief stay.
 The Ypiranga probably will proceed on her voyage tomorrow afternoon.

TO DEVELOP THE BUST

To Beauty Editor: I ashamed of my thin bust that I want to ask yon if there is any harm less way to develop it. My hips and the rest of my body are right for the present styles and do moi want them any larger but my bust is so flat that I would try anything that gave hope of three or four more inches development.

 The only thing know of that will develop the bust without increasing the size of the hps with out putting on flesh where not needed, Is pre- scription put up by the Dr. Kelly Co.,. especially ftr small and undeveopcd breasts.
