The M;.teke Lie. Here

You who buy Scent cans don't get
the full good of Van Camps.
You use it for coffee and cereals,
perhaps. But you probably use raw
milk in your cooking.
That is 4 great mistake.
Van Camps is fully twice better for
cooking than the average run Of raw
milk.
Raw milk always separates. for the
butter fat rises and the solids fall. So
raw milk used in cooking is rarely
whole milk.
" Van Camps Won, get the whole
milk-all OF the butter fat and all Of
the solids belonging to the richest
milk.

1t matters not how much the milk is reduced
by evaporation. 1t may be reduced as much
as Van Camps. or only partly as much.
All charge five cents for six ounces
So you get just as much Of Van Camps for
five cents as you get OF the poorest brands on
the market
But you get but six ounces Of any.

II you will try Van Camps in only one milk

you get sixteen ounces OF cVaporatcd
That means an even pint.
1t means exactly onc-third more for
HE money than you get in the Scent
cans.
In Van Camps you get per cent of
butter fat. about Is per cent total solids.
That is because We use rich. Holstein
milk. And because we evaporatc by
far the larger part OF the water
If you put back the water which we
take out you get about three pints OF
very rich milk out Of lO-cent can.
And that rich milk will cost you, if
you buy Van Camps by the case, just
about six cents per quart.
That's what you ought to pay.
But the same milk in Scent cans

you over eight cents per quart

GERMANY FAVORS ARBITRATION BILL Replies to Knox That She Is Ready to Sign
 Treaty

Washington, August 14.-The reply of Germany to the proposition for a general arbitration treaty with the United States was presented to the state department today by Count Won Bernstorff. the Ger man ambassador. It is understood to be distinctly favorable to the principles laid down by Secretary of State Knox and to presage the negotiation of treaty with Germany similar to the pending conven- ton with Great Britain and France, pro- vided the United States Senate does not drastically amend the agreements.
 Count von Bernstorff returned to Wash ington today from Manchester, Mass. the summer home of the German embassy, to convey his governments answer. He will confer with Secretary Knox to- morrow.
 All previous efforts to negotiate an arbi- tration treaty with Germany have failed because of the necessity to refer the question to the Senate in each case in controversy It was claimed the treaty would bind Germany absolutely to arbl- trate, while the United States was bound OnlS OIl CODUltlOH ol lut oShdiCs s dpPiON@A.
 It is understood Germany's objection On this score will be met with a clause in the proposed treaty. contained also in the British French conventions, providing that disputes shall be arbitrated under special agreement in each case and the special agreements shall be binding only when confirmed by the two governments by an exchange of notes. This will give the German Emperor. as well as the sen ,pft to tha cr n agreements.
 The Senate's threat to modify the pend- ing treaties with Great Britain and France found an echo in the House today when Representative Bartholdt of Mis- souri made a plea for international peace, denouncing the upper bodys opposition to the conventions. He said the '1big stick philosopher of Oyster Bay wanted to leave the doors open for war.
 President Taft has about decided not to press the Senate to ratify the arbi tration treaties at the special session of Congress. After his return from Bev erly today the President learned an attempt to have the Senate act fa- vorably on the pacts at this time might result In long debate and that finally they might be agreed to only in modi- fled form.
 He was informed that many senators had taken umbrage at his speech at Mountain Lake park last week, asking for the moral support of the people to force the Senate to act on the treaties. Rather than to antagonizs senators and render the chance of rati- fication less certain, the President Is understood to have reached the conclu- sion not to make a fight for them at present. Any further speeches on the subject of peace and arbitration are likely to be postponed until the Presi- dents western trip next month.

New York, August 14-The relations must ever be one of peace and neigh borly good will.
 Admiral Count Togo, speaking in his native tongue, uttered that senti- ment today at the luncheon given jointly by the Japan society and the Peace society of New York. Only the Japanese present understood and ap- plauded vigorously, but when Com mander Taniguchi. his aide, repeated the words in English, an outburst of applause arose spontaneously from the hundreds of guests present It was the first expression here by the great fighting man of the east on the sub ject of international relationships
 My name Heihachiro Togo. possesses a particular significance, he said as he gazed upon brilliantly decorated din- ing room with hundreds of fashion ably dressed men and women, Amer ican and Japanese side by side.
 "Heihachiro signifies peaceful son. and Togo means eastern country the peaceful man of the east.
 T consider, therefore, that the name by which l was christened entities me to address you on terms of intimacy.
 'It gives me much pleasure to learn that this function has been given by the Japanese society in conjunction with the Peace society. I cannot con- ceive of happier combination. since the relationship between Japan and the United States must ever be one of peace and neighborly good will.
 T raise my glass to wish prosperity to the two societies, success to their benevolent work. welfare to you all and the sentiment. originally expressed by one of the great western sages, would revise thus:

APPLAUSE GREETS
 MIR. UNDERWOOD
By WALTER HARPER

Washington, August 14.-(Special.)-Oscar l Underwood received prolonged applause | from the democratic side of the House today when in his closing six minutes speech on the conference wool bill he took the republican protectionsts to task on their standpatism and put revision of schedule "K'' squarely up to the honor of the President.
 The republicans were clearly confused, while the democratic applause deadened the sound of the speakers gavel for sev- eral minutes.
 Mir. tJnderwod had reserved few min utes of the 20 minutes allotted to each side and six minutes to close. following MT. Payne of New York.
 The vote on the final passage of the bill was 2O6 to 90 This vote would pass the bill over the Presidents veto. Thirty republican insurgents voted with the dam- ocrats.
 MT Underwood's closing remarks on the woolen bill were as follows:
 MT Speaker, the gentleman from New York (Mr. Payne). says that we accomplish nothing by the reduction on blankets. The rate in this bill on clothes and women's dress goods and other like articles is fixed at 49 per cent. The classificat ton was fixed by the Senate conferees, but the language Is the lan- guage of the House bill, and when " insisted on a different classihcation blankets we finally placed it at 3S h cent. which is Il per cent lower thaN the rate placed on dress goods and onN women's dress goods and articles of that kind
 Now, if the gentleman from New York (Mr. Payne), feels 1t is not relief to the poor people of this country to have their taxes reduced Il per cont, why I do not doubt that is the point of view from which. he looks at it. He has never in any tariff bill he has ever written in the history of this country. or taken part in writing, looked at

Chicago, August 14.-A series of acci- dents any of which might easily have proved fatal, kept the crowd on the third day of the international aviation meet here on tip of excitement all the after noon. Two machines swooped into Lake Michigan, whence their drivers, Rene Simon and Lee Hammond, were rescued by motorboats. uninjured but mourning the loss of their machines.
 Earl Ovington, driving new blplane, erazed too close to one of the pylons marking the end of the course. One plane of his machine was wrecked and the plane started to fall. By sticking to the car, however, Ovington managed to bring the engine into action and the biplane glided to the ground. Ovington was uninjured. but it was necessary to add new plane to his machine.
 J. A. D. McCurdy, flying near the ground, approachd too near the club house of the Chicago Yacht club. The planes of his car struck number of high voltage electric wires running to the club house and in a minute the canvass and oil- covered wood of the planes were on fire.
 
 ground uninJured The aeroplane fell a few feet further, but too late for the fire to be extinguished and it was consumed.
 The wires cut trailed over the free seats in which 2o.000 persons were seated, but the dangling wires were surrounded ty policemen until electricians could re pair them and insure safety.
 Simon's escapade In the water was more sensational, although possibly less serious than McCurdys. While flying over the water a mile from shore his enf. De stopped 4n5 the ptssne gliaod tito planes holding all but the lower wheels out of water.
 Simon, carrying for life preserver an inflated automobile tire, was in no inn mediate danger, and when offered aid from a hydroplane which had been fly ing near, refused to leave his machine With the aid of the hydroplane Simon's plane was started and left the water sue- cessfully. A minute later 1t fell again, this time overturning. Guards in a motor boat who rescued Simon found him rerched on the arms of his plane, cheer fully smoking He was taken ashore in the motor boat and the machine lowed in.
 Lee Hammond fell nearly 300 feet in his biplane, made a high dive as the machine almost reached the water and swan for half mile to meet the rescuing motorboat. The plane floated few min- utes and then sank in 100 feet of water.
